Mun Interview

image

1. Mun’s real name? Melissa (aka Gab!) 

2. Why did I choose my character, and how do I choose to play him/her? Please see my very long answer here: http://whiteknighthakuba.tumblr.com/post/110161404392

4. MUN X MUSE: how would our relationship go? Oh… goodness. I’m already married, let’s put that out there right now, and very happily so. But if it were to somehow happen where I was in a relationship with Hakuba, well… huh. It’d probably be fine since we’re both fairly polite and into books, though I’d feel constantly intellectually inferior to him. And jealous because he would still have fan girls/boys to fawn over him. HMMM. 

Mostly we’d be doing damage control, though. Who’s more depressed today? Oh okay cuddles for you, then. I’d have a hard time with how much he works, too… but then I think he would be really irritated by my lack of follow-through and inability to be punctual. 

10. If my muse were to die, how would I react? I would be utterly heartbroken! Though, depending on the hows and whys, it could be a very good thing. I think he’s a character with great potential to make a large impact if dead (hence the fanfic that I’m writing), given who his father (the Superintendent General, aka the highest ranking officer in Japan), with international reputation, connections to Scotland Yard, the French Police, etc… who has personally met The Mouris, Conan, Hattori Heiji… If he died, it’d definitely cause a stir for the police, but likely in a personal way for our main cast, too. Just think of how many people would be effected if Hakuba died, despite being, really, such a minor character? He’s just in a great position to be a catalyst for character development. ESPECIALLY if it was, say, Conan’s fault. Mm.

11. What is muse’s biggest secret? It’s got to be that he either knows Kaitou KID’s identity and has yet to turn him in (Boscombe secrets, I tell you!), ooor the fact that he was abused as a child. It’s fairly obvious to anyone who gets to know him, but he’ll adamantly refuse to tell the story unless you approach it in a very specific way… 

12. What does mun ship muse with? Hakuba seems to be ridiculously compatible with most good characters. I think my main ship with him is Hakuba/Kaito, but it’s worked really well with Hakuba/Heiji, Hakuba/Shinichi, and Hakuba/Akako before. I also wouldn’t say no to Hakuba/Shiho, Hakuba/Sonoko, or Hakuba/Ran, either. 

There are plenty of crossover characters he works well with, too (Kyoya, Tamaki, Jeanne, Sylwen, Sherlock, etc), and OCs are super precious (Emi, Madison, Mitzi, Miyu, etc.) … It just has to hit the chemistry just right. I bet he’d like an Elizabeth Bennett. 

15. What mun secretly wants muse to do. Actually tell his scar story to someone in character in an actual thread. LOL. So far he’s managed to elude it… but that may be partly because he’s always overly dressed.

18. What muse prefers the most on Tumblr. Lots and LOTS of variety, freedom for HCs and NPCs, and that I can RP/answer questions/draw fanart/write drabbles, and that there is a willing audience to receive it. 

20. What does mun dislike about muse? He’s really bad at interacting with anyone unless he has a specific reason for it. Most often, he’ll want to approach something, but works himself up so much trying to think of a good excuse, that he ends up just being anxious and avoidant and awkward all together. And then he goes to drink. c_c

"The mun has stated that she does not wish to go to bed for whatever reason, even though it’s really quite late. A ghastly hour if you ask me. Yet she is rather stubborn…

"Perhaps I can persuade her with the promise of helping her with more of her fanfiction plotting… even though she does intend to have me killed off in the next chapter. How dreadful is that? Honestly, I’m not certain why I was chosen to get the ax, but I assume that it has to do with her being a lazy writer…”

Once you get this you must share five random facts about yourself. Then pass this on to your ten favorite followers uwu

“Ah! Thank you for nominating me as one of your favorites. I appreciate that more than I can adequately express. Now, for the task at hand… Five random facts about me, or my mun? Perhaps I’ll provide five for each of us!”

Hakuba

  1. I enjoy rereading books to see how my perception of the events within change depending on outside influences.
  2. One of the things I love most about Japan is the ample fish available, though nothing quite beats classic Fish ‘n Chips. Unfortunately, Kaitou-san doesn’t seem to care for fish at all…
  3. Although I don’t get a chance to do it often, I’m a skilled hunter with rifle, archery, trapping, and hawking. I clean and dress my own kills, as well. 
  4. I’ve never owned a cat before, though I think I should quite like to get one some day. I admire their independent, clean, quiet nature.
  5. I once told my mum that I was going to grow up and live in the Sherlock Holmes museum. She didn’t believe me. I wonder if there’s a chance…

Mun

  1. Before Detective Conan, my mun hadn’t ever roleplayed a “feature character” – Edogawa-kun, myself, and so on, only OCs. She’s often quite nervous about her portrayal of us as a result!
  2. She went to university to become an animator, but ended up switching to Illustration/English/Humanities. Alas, she had to take a break from academia for health reasons, but she almost had her bachelor’s with major and minor. One day, I know that she will return and finish!
  3. Unlike myself, my mun has three cats that she keeps as pets. They apparently like to sleep on the bed with her and take up a great deal of room.
  4. My mun also runs a web comic that she hasn’t updated consistently since our trip to London earlier this year… I wonder if there’s a correlation? Especially odd as we were in England, specifically, so she could speak at a convention about web comics…
  5. She, shamefully, has not read all of the Sherlock Holmes books, even though she owns a good deal of them. Ridiculous, isn’t it? I will continue to pester her about it until she finishes, however; not to worry!

(ooc) CONAN VS KID ((as cats))

I had a dream that I was Hakuba and one of my cats was Conan and he curled up next to me this morning, pouting.
‘What’s the matter?’ I asked, hesitantly petting ‘cause let’s be honest, my cat is not but my Conan (askconan) is kind of a jerk.
He nodded his head toward one of my other cats- the extrovert of the bunch- and said ‘that bastard thief won’t stop calling me a shorty.’
‘To be fair you are fairly short, Conan.’
He glared for another moment, then sighed. ‘Help me come up with insults to call him.’
‘What do you have so far?’ (If you recall, the best he could come up with for Koji was ‘scarecrow,’ and that was after calling him ‘stupid face’ for like a month.)
‘Tall hat guy,’ was his reply.
‘…I don’t think this is going to help your situation in any way.’
‘Oi.’ Defensive snort, pout. Snuggled a little closer. ‘What can you come up with?’
‘I make it my policy not to insult Kaitos.’
‘That’s dumb.’
I shrugged.
He looked unconvinced.
I shrugged again.
Kaitou!cat then approached, eyes beady, dangerous. He had that wicked grin of someone juuuust about ready to cause trouble.
Conan froze. Tense. Waiting.

Kaitou got closer, movements so slow and subtle that it seemed that he was gliding into position. Then he stopped. Crouched. His eyes narrowed in concentration while Conan backed up against me, likewise tense. I felt a sort of dread but for my curiosity could not look away.

The tension was electric. Anxious. 

Kaitou drifted just a tiny bit closer- a false move if anything, then stilled, holding position. This action, though, however small, tensed the smaller cat’s shoulders with so much anxiety that he all but flipped himself over, springing from the bed with a flurry of fur and hissing.

Behind the pounding of claws tearing against carpet in retreat, Conan yowled his parting insult of ‘STUPID… BASTARD… TALL HAT.. GUY!’ 

This left Kaitou to sit up, nonchalant and casual as he pleased, regarding the bed for only a moment before jumping up and taking Conan’s place at my side. Once curled, he closed his eyes and sighed, letting the purrs roll from his chest in satisfied amusement. ‘Ah, so warm,’ 

I resumed petting and, subsequently, drifted back to sleep.
