Meme: Reverse Questions

Muns: Post here listing all of the characters you play (you might want to list journals, too, just for reference) or are thinking of playing.

Everyone: Ask the MUNS anything about the GAME or THEIR PUPS, because we all know the muns will answer when the characters won't. They can be specific questions ("How does he feel about her?") or general questions ("Why did you choose this pup?", "How do you channel them?", etc.) You can even have pups ask the questions, but ANSWERS are coming from the MUNS.

There are two that I would say have surprised me the most in ways that are difficult to compare, so I will overshare. XD

The first is Nuriko; she's probably the most accurate answer to this question. I've had a really solid view of her personality for years and years, just because her series is the first comic I ever read and fell in love with, so I've obsessively gone back many times to revisit and had her personality down in my head for the past few years especially. I'm genuinely surprised by how well she's managed to fit herself in around others in Darrow; she's kind of in-your-face and relentlessly teasing in a way that can be aggravating, and layer that on top of how she's from such a different time, a different culture, and her identity isn't one that everyone knows how to treat off the bat. In spite of all of these things, she has so many connections now (especially recently now that I've just chucked her at more people) that are warm and constantly exploring. It makes me happy, since her life has honestly been one of the rougher ones of my characters.

The other is Ishiah, kind of. Less in plot exactly, but more in development. I've played Ishiah at four different games now, and honestly, my take on him keeps on shifting in a way that makes me doubt myself a little (more than a little, really), but I think in Darrow, I've finally locked onto the true way that I want to play him, and I'm pleasantly surprised by how well I've stuck to it. He's really not a 'nice' guy, and is pretty harsh and strict on all fronts. That I've stuck to my guns in playing him with that cool calm, punctuated by sometimes blazing anger, feels good. I'm glad I've had an opportunity to kind of reset how I play him here.
