  • 8:Talk about the thing you are most proud of.

  • (In general, I might have to say I’m most proud of being a sort of jack-of-all trades when it comes to most things. I mean, following that is still ‘master of none’, but I’m fairly proud at being able to pick things up easily. It doesn’t apply to spouts of knowledge, though, more practical things, but I do learn easily. Watching, applied with common sense and a little practice, and I can usually do a passable job. I rarely have to attempt something more than once to know what to do, unless I’m completely lost. Applies to all sorts of things, really, specific skills like making ribbon roses or learning CPR, or broad things like writing and making amvs. Latter take more practice to do well, but I don’t know, just something I do feel proud of.)

  • 32:Talk about a place you remember from your childhood.
  • (Oh childhood… My most randomly spaced and yet specific source of memories… I think for this I’d have to go with school, honestly. More specifically, the playground. And the reason for that is because my nicer friend’s house had a back fence that opened to the school, and it just took a few minutes walk to get across the field that separated them. Made us feel like rebels, no adults to yell at us for going to far away. …Maybe i should just say the neighborhood in general from my childhood, because jeeze… It really did feel a lot different than it does now. I explored all the time without adult supervision, and without fear of anything dangerous, really. Most we had to worry about was getting scraped or being found by people at the school while we were playing there, because we technically weren’t allowed to be there outside of school hours, even if just the playground.)

  • 38:Talk about songs that remind you of certain people.
  • (Ahaha… I’m actually bad about songs for characters more than I am for actual people. I may have a few, if I think, but for the most part, songs go to the fandom mind. And half of them go to Kai for all sorts of reasons, biggest of which is probably because I could see certain scenes matching the lyrics and it fitting his overall personality/character. So for opposite reasons, might have to go Gab’s route of songs for muses.

    Saying that, I don’t actually make playlists, per se. Kai’s songs range from Livin’ la Vida Loca to Angel With a Shotgun to I Will Not Bow. He be wild and everywhere, so a lot of things actually match him fairly well.

    Spider’s got a smaller, slightly less random list, a few of my choices aside. Monster by Imagine Dragons fits mine well, though I wish there was enough material for him to use Oogie Boogie’s song for the canon one, because that image will never leave my head… I mean imagine: ‘Well, well, well… what have we here? ‘Kaitou Kid’, huh? Ooo, I’m really scared.’ If that wasn’t ‘canon’ Spider’s first thoughts of Kai, I’d be shocked.

    I obsess too much over muses, gomen.)

  • 39:Talk about things you wish you’d known earlier.
  • (I wish I’d known about… Hmm… Fandoms? It wasn’t until Detective Conan that I really got into fandoms to any extent, because I found fanfiction and a forum and Tumblr because of it. Before that, I had to work with pictures I found, amvs on Youtube, maybe the odd person out that actually like the same things I did to help support things I liked. I seriously wasn’t aware of fandoms until I binged watched all of DC in 2012, then went online, found a thread for funny Conan captions on a forum, lurked in that thread, then a bit more of the forum, found fanfiction through someone’s signature, read that person’s 42 chapter fic for DC/MK, read more, made on account on the forums, stayed there, joined their chat on IRC, learned how to edit pictures better, learned how to make amvs, eventually found Tumblr and lurked on personal blogs ’til I spotted a Hakuba rper because of one of them, lurked on their blog, then on some Kaito blogs, until my own Kaito that had been born from writing fanfiction bugged me enough to rp, though I started by making Spider’s account first, then Kai’s for the actual first experience…. And yeah, just would have been nice to start all of it earlier, since barely anyone, even the ones that knew anime, liked the same ones I did…)
