this isn't really a question but could i ask you for some italian rock band recommendations? ❤
I'm bad with Italian music but I'll try dkg (first three especially are alt rock /electro)
- Verdena (I really like them)
- Bluvertigo
- Subsonica
- CCCP
- Afterhours
Would also add older stuff by Donatella Rettore and Loredana Bertè (women artists who peaked in the '70ies/'80ies but are still active)
hi ur great
Hi ty!!! I'd say you too but I don't know who you are but I'm sure you are!!!
Do you have a favorite animated movie?
That would be End of Evangelion. Terrific movie
Big Shirou and Juurou lover, please share with us what makes them cool characters for you 🧡
Oh yesss
So Shirou: firstly... I am weak for tsuns 😔 so he got my attention right away.
I feel like he's a more mature evolution of Tamamori characterisation-wise for some reasons. Tama is my fave in Hshm (also) because I could really relate to him. He wants to do his own thing, he wants to be someone, but he can't cope with a society he's an outcast of. He wants to be loved, but he struggles with loneliness and belonging.
Shirou instead is a functioning adult and I admire him for having followed his dream job (sth I can't do) even while going against his family and societal values. But at the same time he still feels alone and is often lost on his path. You can see he's subjected to those standards and does feel lesser... He's very conflicted basically. Both him and Tama find their own happiness at the end so that's inspiring. Sorry I'm very tired so I can't elaborate much
Juurou is the opposite as in I'm not a yandere fan usually. I think part of the appeal is his gap and the fact that I didn't predict his evolution during the game before ep 3 and was very positively surprised. I really like how sensei use the yandere trope for him... And his yearning for yomi was so felt and well expressed during the story I couldn't help but root for him. Their tension is great. And I'm a fan of codependent couple
Have you tried eatingg chocolate bars and clementines?

what are your favorites blvn characters?
Haru, NTY (great characterisation, funny and entertaining yet so inspiring, really gives another meaning to "morally grey"
character to make it short but I could write essays on it)
Tamamori, Hashihime (human and relatable, I loved his resolution and how the author showed that you can find your own happiness without having to follow what society dictates through his character)
Shirou, UruC (I related a lot with his struggle to be "normal", plus genuinely funny, I love Kurosawa's take on "tsundere")
Juurou, UruC (as for Shirou, I love the author's take on a "yandere" character, especially bc I'm not even a fan of yanderes themselves but Juurou's "true" personality really caught me by surprise and I could relate with his loneliness, well what can I say Kurosawa's writing gets me every time)
why are you so kyut
Why are you so gay...
you're stuck in a room for 24h with a character of your choice, who would it be?
Kuya so that he kills me (jk or am I)
what are your favorite romance tropes?
-meeting again after a long time (both 2nd chance romance and friends/acquaintances who meet again)
-actors for a gay couple fall in love for real
-incest (is it a romance trope? 🤔 Maybe not)
-codependent dynamic
-inferiority complex dynamic
-soulmates better if star-crossed
-slow burn with UST/mutual pining
why are you sad?
Anon 🥺 mostly my love life but my life generally speaking is kinda a mess lately
favorite type of scent?
The smell of incest (sorry I had to)
- There's some flower scent that's really strong during this period in my area (which is peculiar bc I don't live on the countryside at all) but I'm not sure what it is, maybe lily of the valley or similar? I don't know much about flowers 😭 I really like it!
- Spices, esp ginger and cinnamon (might be bc I love to eat them as well)
- Citrus smell 🥰 (love to eat that as well lol)
- Toasted bread
I'm sure there are more but I can't think of anything else rn 🤔
Biggest pet peeves?
Idk I have many, depends on the context djg one that comes to mind is when I'm just getting to know someone (be it friendship or romantically) and although I ask about their lives/interests the other person only answers and doesn't ask anything back (not even what about u?) & it just goes on like this for a long while... I feel like they're not interested in me in the slightest and kinda full of themselves, I talk a lot but I'm always interested in what the other person has to say & expect the same. Years ago I met someone who was honestly just my type, tastes and all but we chatted for some days and she hadn't asked ONE thing about me 🙄 girl bye
