Good day, Jade! :)
To my understanding, moray eel mucous and bites can be deadly to humans, effects including blood clots, paralysis, and even death! (How lovely :)👍💃) I was curious, do eel mers, including you and Floyd, share these same characteristics? Hopefully not, considering Vil's skincare provider haha.
Your responses are always so interesting to behold! Thank you for your diligence, and I hope you have a tubular day :)
Good day, my dear.
You are absolutely correct. I am very surprised that you are so vigilant in your gathering of information, and I can only hope that Vil does not see this particular ask. However, I do suppose that even if he does, it would be of no particular issue to me... Fufu.
Considering how Moray Eel Mer are purely fish that have evolved, the statement of our fluids being deathly poisonous to humans is incredibly accurate.
However... Have you considered this? Vil is quite adept at dealing with poisons. What makes you believe that we would hurt such a unique customer?

Devin!!!!! Hi lovely!!!! :DD
For Key & the ask game...
-2 (do you have plans for anyone specific in the cast? can't say yet? someone from home? just cameron? lmao)
-7 (what club would she even be in? :D if she had magic abilities, would that change what club she would choose to join?) -8 (aside from the obvious suspects lmao. or you know what? yeah. complain about them more, perhaps.) -12 (events!!! :D ik we talked about them not being too relevant, but even just vibe-wise ;) what's the girl up to lmao) -15 (again, aside from the obvious lmao) thank you for your lovely words, devin :)) HAVE A BEAUTIFUL MAGNIFICENT DAY MUWAHHH!!!!! YEAHHHHH💥💥💥💥💥💥💥💥🥳💪💥💥💥💥💥💥
Oh my gosh! Hi! :D
2. Who is your OC’s closest platonic friend?
So many good mini questions to go with the main question! I don't have any specific plans as of yet! Only an outline on which characters she can kinda get along with better than others. You gotta remember that she's in NRC in a professional capacity, so she isn't going to go headfirst into friendship right away. The reason why she's so close to Cam was because it was the summer, she was new, and Cameron probably didn't have many friends left in NRC over the summer break anyway.
I will say that don't be surprised that Key's relationships with the Housewardens will develop quicker than any other canon characters and that she may prefer friendships like with other support staff or the interns in the school. (Remember, she's there as a professional and she technically has a life outside of school and its students! I'm really hoping that Key gets a good female friend either in the interns or in the town below just because lol)
And don't worry! She does have friends at home! There is a flashback coming up... ;)
7. Why did they join their clubs? 
Ohhhh! A club! I think she would attend the same club regardless if she had magic or not. I think if the school offered like a club that focuses on history or aspects of culture like discussions on mythology and legends, I think she would excel in that. And not because she grew up with Disney hahaha!
Another club that I think she would do well in would be the Light Music Club! It's mention before that she knows a bit of piano! She's not a composer by any means and it'll take her a couple practices to perfect a piece, but she could definitely do it. Plus, she's also a dancer and her style is mostly derived from a certain King of Pop hehehe.
The one problem with the Light Music Club is probably the members? Key is more of a loner, but she doesn't mind getting to know other people. She's okay with it, but like... she needs time to recharge. So, we have Lilia, Cater, and Kalim... All of them somewhat sociable in their own ways. I think she would get along most with Lilia because he's both mischievous and willing to let her have her own space.
However...I feel like Cater would annoy Key because he would always badger her for selfies or stop practices to pick out the perfect playlist. You'll find in next question you ask that I'll delve into certain qualities a character might have... that could lead to her disliking.
And Kalim? Key appreciates Kalim, but he's way too sociable and there are times when he can be selfish. Yes, he's earnest and kinder than most other people in NRC, but he can be somewhat unaware that Key might like being alone or that she wouldn't feel sad even if she doesn't have expensive clothing or shoes. I think, over time, when Key finally overcomes her politeness and establishes her boundaries (that Kalim will agree to, but will take time to practice), they can be really good friends.
8. Is there a character your OC doesn’t like, if so why?
Crowley.
I'm mostly kidding! There's this... tension lining their relationship due to the very circumstances that they ended up knowing each other. I won't say anything too much, but more of their interactions are explored in Chapter 29 and there will be another interaction in a future chapter that will illustrate where their relationship could go.
And, I did mention that there are certain qualities that Key may not... be okay with.
She like to be punctual, professional, and above all else, pragmatic.
You'll find that Key gets irritated when she can't do her job properly because of someone's incompetence or because someone else can't be bothered to do their job, which hinders her role. It's not like she wants to be mean, but in a roundabout way, she likes routine. She can be afford to be spontaneous and fun when she chooses to be spontaneous and fun. If there's supposed to be an established routine or job she's supposed to do, she will do it and anyone who stands in her way is somewhat of an obstacle.
She also doesn't like it when people tell her what to do or compare her to others.
12. What is your OC’s favorite event(s), what was their role?
Ohhhh! I don't know much about the events, unfortunately. I've seen bits and pieces, but the one event that I'm fairly familiar with is Lost in the Book with Stitch. I feel like... Glorious Masquerade? I feel like Key would be enamored with the City of Flowers and she'd click with Rollo as well! Probably not in a good way, especially after he tries to kill the students (why can he do it, but she can't???), but in early interactions or after their relationship is repaired, but maybe they bond over expensive stationery sets and scrapbooking.
(Rollo probably looks down on scrapbooking, but he eventually understands that there is artistry inherent in the hobby).
Also. Stickers. All of the stickers :D
15. What is a secret not many characters know about your OC?
Hmmm... It hasn't been established outright as of yet, but Key is a dancer! She loves partner dances like swing and she loves the occasional line dance like the Cha Cha Slide and Cupid Shuffle! She loves shuffling (any type of shuffle) and back at home, she liked covering some of Michael Jackson's best dance moves.
She can following along with Billie Jean and Thriller fairly well.
Another secret... Probably not relevant as of yet, but she doesn't like looking at her reflection in Twisted Wonderland.
Ohhhh, and her true name is *gets shot*
Thank you so much for the questions and your kind words! I also wish you a wonderful day! :D

Hiya Devin :) for the recent ask game!
10 (short, huh?), 26, 27, 43, andddd for 50: Why writing? What inspires you/ got you into it in the first place? Thanks Devin :) Hope you're having a slay day! <3
Hey, Devin here!
10. How tall are you?
Did you know... shortness is only a matter of perspective? I'm 191 cm. Obviously. Like Floyd Leech. You should totally believe me.
150 cm
26. What are some seemingly childish things you like? 
Ohhhh, that's a very cool question! Ummm.... hmmm...
I really like cute notebooks, planners, scrapbooks, and calligraphy sets! I don't have a creative bone in my body when it comes to writing legibly, much less decorating planners or scrapbooking, but it seems like a good hobby!
Another a childish thing I like? I really like my happy stims! It's a sore point for me in real life, especially if other people are in the room when I stim, but I like flapping my arms or jumping up and down. The happy chemicals create more happy chemicals in an unstoppable feedback loop that has originated since childhood. :D
Ohhhh, puns! I like to grab seemingly random objects and making puns out of them!
I mean, with all of these questions... It seems like this is a quest ur on to know more details about me! ;)
Yes, I know it's bad shhhh...
27. What’s your favorite book? Or just one you’ve read a few times? 
Oh gosh, please don't be mad at me, it's been years since I've read a book that wasn't a reference text or a manual. Can fanfictions count? From my most recent memory, even though it's been a while since I've last read it (but I have read it upwards to 10+ times over the years)... Snakeskins by Lsunnyc.
I know you like worldbuilding and lore, guess what that fanfic is composed of! (It's also one of my main inspirations to how I write nowadays. I really look up to that author and you should check them out and their ao3 if you're interested!). It's a Hetalia/Harry Potter crossover fanfic and it's... very long, but hey. It's really well written.
But an actual book? Gosh... No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai? That's one of the last few books I remember reading and that was definitely a trip. I related to the main character a bit too much and the subject matter, trajectory of the character... It really hits and there's a reason why the book has the reputation it has.
43. Do you have siblings? How many?
Yup! Two of them!
50. Wild Card. Any question, ask away.
Why writing? What inspires you/ got you into it in the first place?
(Answer under the cut because it got too long!)
Okies, so I know in the past I think I admitted to having started posting fic in 2012 and my first fandom was for Tokyo Mew Mew. However! My first ever fanfic was for Sharkboy and Lavagirl and it was written on yellow legal pad and will never see the light of day ahaha!
The reason I bring that up is because when I was younger and school would let out for the summer, our class would have this ritual of throwing away our tattered old notebooks that we weren't planning on using for the next school year into the recycled bins. However, before I left for home, I would take all of the notebooks that had been dropped into the recycle bins, take them home, rip out the old notes and doodles, and then keep them over the summer.
So that I can write in them.
I started in fifth grade when I realized that it would be a waste just to let those notebooks be recycled when there were some that had tons of clean pages??? In them??? That's why I saved those poor notebooks.
The thing was, I didn't realize that I had like half a dozen or so notebooks that had clean pages that I realized... I could do things with the notebooks. So, over the course of the summers from 5-7 grade, I would write short stories (seriously, short as in like one paragraph long onto a single page and call it a day). It wasn't until the summer of 7th grade that I realized... wait, why write stories only in the summer? Why not write during the whole year instead?
At that point, I amassed a lot of notebooks and scraps of papers filled with stories. Somewhere along the way, I shifted from purely original fiction to fanfiction because it was through my first official fandom (Tokyo Mew Mew) that I realized fanfiction was a thing.
I totally thought, upon reading my first fanfic in ye old ffnet, that it was actually canon material until I checked the comments and other stories. And thus, my eyes were opened.
So yeah, come eighth grade and beyond, I began writing more fanfics in my free time and eventually, in high school, I began bringing my fanfic notebook into class so that I could work on them during breaks.
I think what really inspires me to write would be because... there are entire swathes of the story, of the behind scenes, that we never get to see in canon. You can infer a lot from subtext or hints dropped from characters alluding to events, character perceptions, etc. but there's a difference from accepting the subtext or canon as it is and... Taking what you know and then adding depth to it and transforming it into something new.
I don't know... breathing life into characters who already has an established character is so exhilarating to me! There are people out there who roll their eyes at fanfic, but like??? Writing a character and making them stay in character while also transforming them in the process??? It's creation in one of its more pure forms while also paying homage to the original creator.
There's a quote somewhere... maybe on tumblr? and this person said that writing fanfic or any sort of transformative work is like playing with the sandbox that the original creator has left behind. That's what I'm doing, I'm playing in a sandbox.
And I'm having a lot of fun with it! :D
Anywhoozles, thank you so much for the questions and I hope that you have a wonderful day!
Feel free to ask more questions and I hope that you have a wonderful day! :D

Hey!!!! I hope we can still do that ask game from a sec ago :) 🤔📌💡🗑
Hey, Devin here!
🤔 What’s one genre you’ve never written that you’d like to try?
Oh gosh, I think I would like to write horror! I mean, yeah you could argue yandere is horror, but the way I write it, it's more... psychological thriller? If I do write horror, I think I would like to write about ghostly hauntings... or maybe even a slasher!
I would also like to try my hand at adventure type stories! Like the cast of characters going on a quest or something to that effect.
📌 If all your fics/WIPs fell off a ship and were drowning (go with it), and you could only save one, which would it be?
Why would you make me choose??? Like... I've got literal hundreds of fics under my belt at this point! I'm not proud of all of them, but they're all my babies!
That said, I would have to go with Caged Birds! Seriously, I'm spending so much time and effort into it and not only that, I'm projecting that it's going to take months, maybe even years before I finish. You bet I'm saving this wip!
💡 What’s the weirdest thing you’ve been inspired by?
Oooohhhhh! Good question! I think I get inspired by character interactions or the lack thereof. I like putting various elements like world buidling, characters, or plot ideas into a blender and seeing how the similarities and/or differences balance each other out or enable each other. You can see this a lot if you were to look at my old fics that are crossovers! It's amazing what you can do to put two seemingly different fandoms together!
🗑 What is one fic idea that you loved at first but then scrapped?
Once upon a time, I was going to write an oc-centric story for Obey Me! The main premise of the story is that the MC who I was going to call Bitty actually disobeyed Lucifer's orders from the very first few chapters, met Belphegor, and then admitted it to Lucifer. Lucifer, who is probably questioning his judgment, allows Bitty to continue visiting Belphegor so long as they don't tell the other brothers. His reasoning was that Belphegor (who he is very secretly fond of since that's his baby brother) needed enrichment and what better way to do that than to have him understand and bond with one of the humans he claims to detest so much.
The story was going to be mainly focused on the relationship between Belphegor and Bitty, with plenty of side plots and shenanigans with the other brothers. Also, Bitty is very against the idea of enslaving anyone to their will, even if it will serve them greatly in the future. Because of that, they refuse to make pacts with the brothers. This causes Belphegor and them to have arguments, but eventually, Bitty explains that maybe they can reason with Lucifer to let Belphegor out.
It takes months, but eventually, Belphegor gets released and in a moment where he feels like he can finally exact revenge, he realizes that Bitty is one simple human. He can't really achieve anything with that other than to halt the exchange program momentarily.
There's tension, but eventually, Belphegor reintegrates with the rest of the Devildom and eventually, both Bitty and Belphegor become best friends (possibly lovers???) without the possibility of death and hidden resentment from Belphegor.
A few notes: The both of them bond over how idealistic and absurd the exchange program is, how much they dont' like Diavolo, and how they enjoy card games.
Another note: Bitty's full name is Bituin Perez. Take that as you will :D
Thank you so much for the questions and I hope that you have a wonderful day! :D
Feel free to ask more!

Oh HECK YEAH i love when you do these!!! :D ❄️☂️🌪 please! :) (also, is it okay if we respond to them? Lol? It's such a joy to hear your thoughts :) and that upcoming oc fic of yours has me like 👀👀👀👀 but i dont wanna spam lmao) hope you're having a great day!!!
Hey, Devin here!
Also, feel free to interact in any way you like! You can write in the tags, through the main reblog, asks, dms, etc! I love getting feedback from my readers!
(This is a cue for you to spam!)
^^^PLEASE
Anywhoozles!!!
❄️ Share a snippet from a WIP of your choosing.
Since you seemed interested in my oc fic, I’ll give you a snippet from there!
Tumblr media
☂️ Is there a fic concept you have that you'd like to just explain and share because you're not sure you'll ever write it? If so, what is it?
I really want to write a polyam fic with either octatrio and an oc or AceDeuceYuu. It would be really cute and explore how their dynamics changes from their fourth year at internship to the very beginning of their adult lives.
For AceDeuceYuu, Ace and Deuce would be the main ship before they realize that they’re both head over heels for their favorite magicless prefect. The romance for Ace and Deuce starts in third year when they begin to have more respect and regard for one another while their budding romantic/sexual feelings for Yuu starts manifesting when they’re all roommates after graduation and they need to look for work together.
It’s gonna be a trial for all three of the characters where Deuce realizes that he doesn’t have to stick to monogamy, Ace has to make sure to be open when communicating, and Yuu has to open their heart that maybe, even when they can’t go back to their home world, they still have two idiots to go back home to.
(By the by, Grim is also there, but he wants to open up a Beast Taming course back in NRC and spends most of the story interning at another academy that specializes in the subject).
As for the octatrio and their oc fic… I can’t give it all away because it relate to another wip, but basically, it’s about forgiveness, acceptance, and openness between landfolk and sea folk dwellers. There’s going to be angst, anger, and a whole lot of shenanigans and dinglehoppers and whatsitcalleds for the vast majority of it.
The first wip is contingent on creativity while the second depends on the fact that I need to complete another wip before getting to the polyam.
🌪 Sum up a WIP with a few fic tropes/Ao3 tags.
For my twst oc WIP:
* Crowley’s A+ Headmaging/Parenting
* Isekai
* Angst
* Drama
* Bullying
* Alternate Universe
* Hurt/Comfort
* Found Family
* Deviates from Canon
* Everybody is Bad at Feelings
* Original Characters (seriously, there’s a lot of them)
* Worldbuilding and Lore
Thank you so much for the questions and I hope you have a wonderful day!
Feel free to ask more questions spam me and message me if you like! :D

Hi!!! For the writers ask, 💧🪨&🌙 please!! :)<3
💧Rain - What's the most emotional scene you've ever written?
Heheheh, if you're interested in reading isekai stories for twst, you're gonna find out. ;)
If not, I think one of the more emotional scenes is one of my more recent fics for Jade Leech and the Prefect, Stoking the Flame. It's the part where the Prefect starts breaking down because they're stuck in another world and Jade is. just. not. getting. it. :D
Another one is a short ficlet I wrote for North Italy/Veneziano from Hetalia World Series. It's basically him trying to live with the fact that he's immortal and ultimately, every day is the same.
🪨 Landslide - Which WIP has the most worldbuilding?
That same isekai story I've been hinting at in these past few asks for this ask game. ;D
I've been working on it for several months now and it's chock full of ocs, the gripes and groans of staff, and a few other ocs for the fun of it. There's a lot of references to canon cultures and lands, but I have my own little spin on it.
🌙 Eclipse - What's the most common / reoccurring theme of your WIP(s)?
Ummmm... It really depends on the genre, actually?
For my yandere stories, I like to focus on how the yandere worms their way into your life, how manipulative they are on the inside, but completely innocent and unassuming on the outside.
For romance, I like to focus on the little moments. Not grand gestures, but the mundane and everyday details that make the relationship all the more fulfilling.
Most of my stories are also character interaction heavy alongside a heavy dose of introspection. On the surface, you'll find that the characters are working in harmony together or just having a conversation, but delving deep into the minds of one of them, I might write them as having an internal conflict with the other character.
I also like putting little observations that add so much to the story, but don't seem like much until you read the entire thing.
Thank you for the ask and I hope that you have a wonderful day! :D

For the writing ask, 8, 28, & 38 please! :) Hope ur having a great day <33
Hey, Devin here!
8. If you had to write an entire story without either action or dialogue, which would you choose and how would it go?
Oh my gosh, what a delightful question! Let's see...
I think it really depends on what characters I'm using and the scenario that I'm using them in! You see, I can write paragraphs upon paragraphs of scenery, building up to the characters interacting, and I can focus on their actions regarding each other. For me, when characterizing characters, it's not just the dialogue that is a part of them, but also their actions.
Do they twirl their hair when they're bored? Play with the uneven edges of old tables? Tap their feet against the legs of their chair?
On the other hand, I absolutely adore dialogue. With the right identifiers, pauses, and context given through words alone, you can convey what a character is doing, feeling, and how they are effecting their environment, others, and even themselves.
I don't know, you can take these elements by themselves and depending on your execution, can come up with extremely good pieces of fiction if need be.
Of course, if you say entire story... do you mean novel length or one-shot, drabble fic style? For my purposes, I can write a fic that is solely based on the descriptions of characters' actions for maybe... 1-2k words. Perhaps? As for dialogue heavy stuff, since we're focusing mostly on dialogue, maybe a little less or more than 1k.
I don't know, I think it would be an interesting challenge hehehe.
28. Who is the most delightful character you’ve ever written? Why?
Don't ask me this question! Hehehe!
Let's see....
In the past, it definitely would have been AE-3803 and U-2001 from Cells at Work, Veneziano (North Italy) from Hetalia, and Alastor from Hazbin Hotel.
As of recent memory, that honor belongs to Hacker from Akudama Drive, Tim Wright from Marble Hornets, and Jade Leech from Twisted Wonderland!
(I know, I'm cheating, but bear with me).
Let's break it down!
AE-3803:
She's so cute! Oh my gosh, she's wonderful, resilient, and she is a great foil to U-1146! I went into so many analysis posts between her and U-1146 on my main blog (especially back in 2020-2021) when I was writing my magnum opus of the time, the Abnormalities!verse. I won't get into too many spoilers, but my gosh, I took so many of the characteristics that are canon to her, and then I made her go through it. (What is it, you may ask? Well, I put her through the ringer and she is traumatized). She is delightful in the way that you know at the end of the day, you know she'll get back on her feet no matter how bruised and aching she may be. She'll rise above her traumas and look her tormentors in the eye with both compassion and understanding. But through it all, she will harden her resolve, her weak cell structure turning to steel. She is my baby and she has gone through so much! ;; That isn't to say she isn't wonderful in canon. She is. She serves as one of the more lighthearted aspects of the series and she is a wonderful companion to have when time gets tough, especially in the later chapters.
U-2001:
He's an old man! There's next to nothing about him in canon, but I always headcanon him to be such an old man who loves watching from the sidelines! He doesn't say much, but when he does, you can guarantee that he will be a deadpan snarker and will surprise you with either the world's greatest advice or the dirtiest joke imaginable and you will have to deal with that reality because no one will ever believe you. He is the blorbo that no one else wanted and I adopted way back in 2018. For the real ones who followed from my main blog and used to be bombarded by CAW (mah booiiiii!!!!)
Veneziano:
He's an old man with tons of issues buried underneath a concerningly fractured and thin veneer of clumsiness and ineptitude! I won't say more, but my gosh, I made an entire anthology series for him on ffnet and I participated in a week long event based on prompts which you can view on my main tumblr and on my ao3. Long story short, he is someone who you know has layers upon layers of trauma and personality underneath, but the thing you'll notice upon meeting him is that his smile is radiant, one that draws you in. It isn't until you take a step back that you realize that it's empty and quite sad.
Alastor:
He's a radio demon! It's been a while, but someone once requested to have a deaf! reader x Alastor one shot way back when... and let me tell you... The process behind that fic was something else. Just... I don't know what to say. The zaniness behind his radio personality and the evil that lurks behind his ever present smile? That stuck with me while writing him.
Hacker:
He's a maverick in a world filled with other mavericks! In my fics, I always think him more of the cycnical, younger brother archetypes. It's such a shame that Akudama Drive was short as it was, but from what little of what I've seen of Hacker, he is such a neat charaacter??? I love him so much. His snark, deadpan delivery at times, and snark was a definite bonus when viewing the anime for the first time. Furthermore, his relationship with the main character was also great? They were such an iconic sibling duo who I would die for because the feels! All of the feels! Not only that, but his character plays off the other zany and almost nonsensical rules and other players in the anime. Back when a lot of people used to request me for Akudama Drive, interactions besides x readers were in high demand and seeing some of the weirdest combinations for interactions were the highlight of my day. Seeing him play off with other character archetypes was always a joy to me because he could range from disgruntled, tsundere little brother to someone who can be gigantic thorn in someone's side because he's a little shit who knows too much.
Tim Wright:
He is a man who I can project my fears and mental issues on. That's it. Okay, I kid, but there are so many other people who can write an analysis on him and be loads better than what I can say. What I will admit, however, is that he showed me that life is possible even after years of trauma and repression. That it is worth keeping moving forward, to seek help when possible, and to face the past in order to ultimately heal. In one of my fics, I had to put myself in his shoes and when I did... I just felt simultaneously bittersweet and sad, but at the same time, determined to move forward--to be compassionate and kind.
Jade Leech:
He is the eely perfect character. Nothing else should be said. Hahahah! I'm not sure how obvious it is, but I love Octavinelle as a whole. The aesthetic, the non-human characteristics, the strange things they say or do that denotes them as merfolk and therefore other than humans... It's all there! I could have easily said the same for Azul and Floyd, but with Jade, there's also the underlying philosophy of how the sea works underneath his veneer of a gentleman. He's somewhat cold and calculative, like a scientist who doesn't have the moral or ethical wherewithal to stop experimentaing, hahah! Yet, at the same time, he isn't cruel or needlessly malicious, he's bored and just wants to have fun. He tickles my brain just right and writing his internal observations and what he takes note of is what really gets me.
Have you figured out what are my favorite aspects are when writing characters? ;D
38. What is something about your writing process YOU think is Really Weird? If you are comfortable, please share. If you’re not comfortable, what do you think cats say about us?
I... I don't have a writing process?
I know there are lots of people who say that you have to use outlines or write blurbs or jump back and forth in the timeline, but like...? I don't?
I usually just write as a train of thought and then it happens to turn into a story. Of course, there's the proofreading part, but that usually occurs after I let the fic simmer for a day or two before posting.
Also, I downloaded this extension where everything I type makes a typewriter sound.
It's awesome and it helps me focus.
And the inclusion of listening to the same song on repeat is also a great addition to the writing process.
Thanks for the questions and I hope that you have a wonderful day! :D
Feel free to ask more! :D

Hi, Devin here!
Thank you so much for the prompts! Hehehe, I might have gone a little overboard so, I'm posting it all under the cut! (Sidenote, I know you're here mostly for Twisted Wonderland, but most of these quotes are from my other fandom published works that I'm most proud of).

🦭recommend a partially published wip!
You already know I'm gonna say Caged Birds Don't Sing, But They Still Bite! But I'm also working on another octatrio centered fic! This one centers around land boot camp, but it doesn't take place in the same universe as Muscle Memory; it's kind of its own little thing. It has three chapters and details their thoughts and feelings on certain aspects of surface dwelling and interracial relationships between human and merfolk unions.
Once again, thank you so much for the opportunity to show off my favorite quotes! I may have gone a little overboard, but I just realized that I can be ridiculously good when I want to be! :D
Feel free to ask more questions or talk to me about whatever! (You're always welcome to talk more about Key if you like :D)
Thanks again and I hope that you have a wonderful day! :D
(For of those you wondering, I embedded the links into the screenshots so you can visit the fic itself!)
