TheTinyKizunameko<p>Wanna get to know me, fellas? :blobcatattention:</p><p>I don't know the original source of this image, if anyone knows the creator, please let me know so I can credit them!</p><p>1. Since I was a wee kid! I was always into fiction, books, cartoons, anything, and shared my stories about fictional characters with my family and friends! I remember gathering my friends 'round on the playground and telling them my fanfics like I was doing rakugo or something. Great practice for all these oratory contests my school would send me to!</p><p>2. My two big ones right now are Yo-Kai Watch and Project Sekai, but I'm big on a lot of things, some of which are pretty obscure! Pretty much any fandom I do art for is a passion of mine.</p><p>3. I write fanfiction, draw fan art, do cosplay, write fandom analysis and essays, and also made a diorama once! </p><p>4. I think it was Land Before Time. I was tiny back them, probably still in nursery school, but I distinctly remember re-watching the films constantly and making up my own stories about the characters! I would act them out with tiny plastic dinosaur toys that had no relation to the films and weren't even always the same species, if the looked similar enough, fine by me!</p><p>5. I think five times or so? Maybe less? I used to cry easily, not anymore (but it still happens), but only a few fanfics I've read got me emotional enough to straight up cry... Some did, though! Gotta catch me in the right mood, I guess.</p><p>6. "The Strength of Our Feelings", by orphan_account on AO3. It's a Project Sekai sickfic (my main weakness), and it features amazing and very in-character Tenma sibling bonding, as well as an unexpected side to Emu (Caregiver Emu! Caregiver Emu!). It's touching, sweet and will make you want to hug Tsukasa (as if you don't want to hug him already). Do recommend!</p><p>7. It changes depending on whatever fandoms are my bread and butter right now... But honestly, just a couple nights ago I almost cried because I thought too hard about MicchyNatsu and imagined some Major Sad postcanon things for them. So, Micchy x Natsume from Yo-Kai Watch Shadowside it is. Level-5 let them be happy challenge (impossible). </p><p>8. I have an entire collection of "Yo-Kai Watch screenshots out of context that will make you doubt this is a normal anime that makes sense in any way at all", not sure which one to choose! Have a pic of Natsume as an idol with Shadowside form Micchy as her Jojo stand and Ayame covering in front of such majesty.</p><p>9. Yes! I once met a Homestuck on public transit, and we became best friends forever shortly afterwards, she will be at my wedding, you cannot make this up.</p><p>10. My fiance and I went to a Project Sekai-themed festa and got a ton of Wonderlands x Showtime custom merch! My favourite is the Tsukasa standee, my adorable little man.</p><p>11. Rare pairs all the way! Either that or obscure canon pairs that aren't talked about enough. I love gen stuff in theory but I keep finding shipping everywhere, it's a curse.</p><p>12. Multi-fandom to the extreme, I'll usually have two or three at the front, but ugh... Too many shows, and I don't really consume much of them, too! Whatever I do consume just sticks tbh.</p><p>13. Last month! It was the aforementioned Project Sekai fan festa, and it was amazing, very well-organized and had lots of friendly people.</p><p>14. My fiance got into Yo-Kai Watch first and dragged me into it, that's how I got stuck in my new monsterguy hell. As for Project Sekai, I've been a fan of Vocaloid since 2009, and randomly decided to check out this hot new Miku game a couple years ago. Now I have all Rui birthday cards and life is good.</p><p>15. A character with soft yandere traits simps relentlessly for a character with soft tsundere traits, but is constantly rejected, despite the two being good friends overall. Then something bad happens to the soft yandere, and the soft tsundere has a ~realization~ and goes out of their way to save them. Then They Kiss. I had this exact scenario imprinted on me because of a soap opera my grandma was watching when I was very young, I don't remember the name or the plot, only The Ship (they were minor antagonists, lol), and that they did end up together! (Or at least consummated their relationship, it was stated as clearly as can be).</p><p>16. "Sickfic", "vomiting", "male pregnancy". I will still look at other tags and click out if something squicks me, but these three are my go-to kinks. Also, "[Name of my favourite character]" will get clicks from me, guaranteed. </p><p>17. I loved the "Hetober" fest that was run by a writing community in my native language! Despite the name, the stories didn't have to be het, lol, and didn't even have to have romance as an important plot point, you just wrote a drabble for every day of October, based off of a prompt, with a new prompt published each day. I ended up with one of my longest fics yet, and it was a character study I'm very proud of!</p><p>18. None right now, I've just finished a major one (only an epilogue left, but it doesn't have a deadline, thankfully), so can I just share my excitement over having a gaming night with my friends IRL this Sunday? It's going to be ~lit~!</p><p>19. Episode 25 of Yo-Kai Watch Shadowside, my beloved. Best love story ever told, and it's about a girl getting kidnapped by a stalker who is in love with the girl's own stalker (who isn't really that much of a stalker, but gets called that in the episode), and wants to lure her stalker to an abandoned factory to have some stalker-to-stalker PVP combat, but it's also somehow about a broken bond between brothers and an allegory for being trans and having an unaccepting family? Don't get me started on untangling this episode, it's wild.</p><p>Fave song is Samsa from Project Sekai, performed by Nightcord at 25:00 and Kaito. It's based on one of my favourite books and never fails to move my heart.</p><p>Fave moment is that ~particular~ way Micchy says "Natsume-san!" at the end of ep 25 of Shadowside. Onosaka Masaya is an amazing voice actor, but I don't think I have ever heard his voice convey so much sincere happiness. It was as if he was about to burst into laughter mixed with happy tears, but the character couldn't do that physically at that point, so he just did it all through a voice line, and I melted.</p><p>20.
