I know I still have some older asks to get to, but I’ve wanted to do this one for a while! Feel free to ask for ships not canon to this ‘verse! (Though, if you do ask for a ship I already have a kid for, I’ll just reply with their info.)
Gladion/N daughters from the animeverse AU I don’t think I’ve mentioned on here yet!
Norne is their biological daughter, while Calypso is the daughter of their respective Zoroarks who fancies herself an honorary human, so is publicly their “second daughter”.
(They’re named after the calypso orchid, which is called Norne in German! Calypso also translates to “she who conceals” which is how I got the inspiration to make her a Zorua in the first place.)
Timeskip Selene & Acerola!
Selene is a professional photographer, specializing in spirits, haunted locations, and uneasy feelings of liminality. She’s always cheerfully on the hunt for the perfect auras of dread for her inspiration. Her work has been described by critics as “unsettling, yet unable to look away from”.
Selene and her twin brother, Elio, traded the champion title back and forth for a few years, until both found other careers they preferred, whereupon the title passed to Acerola! When not defending her title, she can be found in her garden, working at the library, or telling ghost stories to the neighborhood kids.
They’re married 🙂
👁️ EYE – what colour are their eyes? do people notice their eyes? is there anything special about them (shows emotion easily, literally magical…)?
Tipha has brown eyes with reddish undertones! They’re pretty similar in color to Hilbert’s, who inherited his eyes from his father (though with how his mother never talked about the man, it’s not like he’d know that). I don’t think people usually notice her eyes as standing out for their appearance, but she does have a mean glare and people definitely notice that. Tipha has the type of eyes you can feel looking at you even if you can’t see them. Because of her dragon heritage, she has preternatural night vision and so her eyes reflect light off of them in the dark, which is definitely spooky for most people who don’t expect it. Otherwise, they don’t glow or anything like that even when she’s using magic (which she rarely does anyways).
🤥 LYING – are they good liars? do they have tells to show they’re lying?
Tipha is a horrible liar. She can bs her way through half truths and misdirection easily enough, but when it comes to outright lying she’s very obvious about it, the most obvious tell being that the only time she fidgets is when lying. She avoids it whenever she can since she finds lying morally objectionable, so when she does lie it literally makes her squirm.
😭 CRYING – what makes them cry? do they cry easily?
Tipha doesn’t cry easily and when she does, it’s usually restrained to silent tears and heavy breathing rather than full on sobs. She usually cries most easily when extremely angry or frustrated, but this was mostly when she was a child. Things like homework or being treated unfairly by Euphie or her peers that worked her up would often result in tears accompanied by raising her voice and escalating instability (and when she was even younger, a full on tantrum). Once she’s a teenager, she tries to avoid getting to that point or furiously holding back tears when she feels them building since she finds it childish and embarrassing for her to cry out of anger. Of course, this also makes her temper a bit scarier, since anger without tears implies more fury than the frustration she showed with angry tears. (She is also not immune to crying from reading sad moments in books, though she denies this.)
😨 FEARFUL – when scared, do they go into “flight” or “fight”?
Instant “fight”. Hands down. Tipha is a “throw a punch first, apologize later” when caught off guard type of person. She wants to go down fighting if it comes to it, especially if it means protecting others. But this instinct comes at the cost of her own self-preservation a lot of the time. She’ll push aside all of her fear to act in dangerous situations, but can sometimes make things worse in the process, especially since she’s usually not thinking straight when cornered and simply reacting. (In that sense, she and Gavin are very similar, I’m picturing that meme of the person trying to block a bullet for another, but then the other person wraps around them to block instead and it just keeps going like that haha).
🍓 STRAWBERRY – do they eat their fruit & veg? what is their favourite fruit or vegetable?
Tipha comes from a mostly vegetarian family, so she loves her fruit and veg! It’s also very important for her to eat healthily to keep up with her exercise regime, so she takes her diet very seriously, planning out her meals to be all balanced. She has a preference for crunchy fruits and vegetables, with strong flavors finding them satisfying to eat – her favorite fruits are melons and melon-like berries (especially Spelon berries!), and her favorite vegetables are radishes!
💐 BOUQUET – create a bouquet for them! what do those flowers mean? are any of the flowers their particular favourite?
💥 COLLISON – what emotions do they have trouble dealing with?
Because Ronan has a complicated relationship with his parents due to perceiving them as being “irresponsible”, he tries to be as different from them as possible. But, this just means that Ronan often rejects his own emotions and impulses that he thinks are troublesome. Whenever he finds himself wanting to try something spontaneous or messy, he suppresses the urge and mentally berates himself for it. However, over time he finds that rejecting his true self is harming his creativity, something he takes pride in, and has to reconcile with being more similar to Flint and Volkner than he’d like, and that it might not be such a bad thing to take risks and be spontaneous like they do.
🥞 PANCAKE – what is their comfort breakfast?
Ronan loves to cook, breakfast being one of his favorite meals to make. Because neither of his parents are morning people, it meant Ronan usually had the kitchen to himself in the mornings. Getting to cook in peace and have the house essentially to himself was a highlight of his morning routine. His favorite to make and eat is a simple, traditional Japanese breakfast! He’s made the various dishes enough that it’s second nature, and he finds going through all the steps to be relaxing in their routine. Once he moves out, he tends to take his time when getting ready in the morning, really savoring the cooking process and each bite, so it’s a very special meal for him!
🌋 VOLCANO – how bad is their temper? is it a slow boil, or an instant explosion?
Ronan is very easily irritated, with seemingly everything able to annoy him depending on the circumstances. However, his actual temper is more of a slow-burn. Ronan is very prickly in his everyday demeanor, but when actually angry he’ll give the cold shoulder. Once he stops his grumbling and needling and is just quietly glaring and seething, that’s when he’s really mad at someone. His anger tends to pass fairly quickly, however, since he finds it tiring to be that upset for long periods of time and it’s easier for him to just avoid people who get that much on his nerves than waste energy being angry at them.
🌏 EARTH – will they give up the world for someone they love? is this decision easy for them?
Ronan finds it incredibly difficult to open up to people and struggles with his own feelings of affection and love to others. He sees himself as a loner and rejects attempts from people who try to grow closer to him beyond casual friendships. However, when he does let someone into his heart, he becomes completely devoted. He’s picky enough with who he allows close to him that anyone that does become that important to him, will be someone he’d do anything for, as they deserve it in his eyes. At his core, though, Ronan is someone who looks out for himself first and foremost, so while he might not give up everything for someone he loves, he would do everything in his power within reason to provide for them as long as it meant he could continue to exist alongside them as well.
✏️ PENCIL – is there a particular quote / lyric that you associate with them?
I don’t usually have quotes or lyrics written down or memorized for specific characters, but as for general inspiration a lot of Ronan’s influence came from the idea of him being inherently contradictory. He’s passionate at heart – but closes himself from those strong emotions, he’s methodical and precise – but secretly also enjoys pouring his heart without care into his poetry, he keeps himself isolated and aloof – but when he does love it’s with his whole being. So I tend to associate him with other characters that fit those tropes as well! (Also a friend told me he looks like BBC Sherlock and I can’t unsee it now and I hate it so there’s that too.)
☄️ COMET – what do people assume about them? are they right?
Generally, what you see with Ronan is what you get. He dresses in dark colors and has a permanent scowl on his face. He’s brooding and irritable and doesn’t like socializing. His consideration of fashion, seen in his more formal, stylish clothing, hints at his more refined side, which is emphasized in his “carefully chosen words that often have hidden meanings” (he will quote poetry when he doesn’t know what else to say). However, Ronan does have hidden depths for those willing to dig for them, but most people don’t want to put up with him long enough to do so or just like his dark and brooding exterior as is and prefer to imagine their own fantasies on how he’d be with someone he’s close to.
While I didn’t get an ask for this, this question jumped out at me since I had found a video that made me think of the answer to it for Janus a while ago and it felt like a sign!

39. When people look at your character, is there some assumption they might make about them just by appearance? Is that assumption correct?
Janus almost always has a smile on his face, so people often assume he’s a very upbeat, optimistic person – and this is true! However, Janus also uses his smile to hide his true emotions, so sometimes his outward appearance does not match what he’s feeling inside. There are also times where Janus will change his expression on purpose to mess with people, such as frowning suddenly to trick people into thinking he’s angry with them, then switching back to his normal grin and saying “Just kidding!” Some people also find his expressions irritating, thinking that he’s smug or doesn’t take anything seriously, though in that case they’ve fallen for the persona Janus presents on purpose.
Janus also almost always wears a uniform – either the Subway Boss uniform or the Ginkgo Guild uniform depending on the arc – so people tend to assume he takes great pride in his work, which is correct! Janus considers both the Battle Subway employees and the Ginkgo Guild members to be his family, so by wearing their uniforms, he feels connected to them!
42. Is there anything in your character’s past that they regret, haunts them, or they wish they could change?
Before the Hisui Arc, the moment in Janus’s past that most impacts him is when Ingo went missing. Only about a month before Janus was planning to start his journey as a trainer to gain the experience he needed to one day become a Subway Boss himself, his Uncle Ingo went to Lostlorn Forest to train and never came home. Janus put his journey on hold to assist the search and rescue teams, but it was to no avail. Janus was meant to go with Ingo to train that day, but ended up canceling the plans to go to the Nimbasa amusement park with his friend Amelia to ride a new roller coaster instead. Because of this, Janus blames himself for Ingo going missing, feeling that it wouldn’t have happened if he’d been a more responsible trainer and gone with him. He knows deep down that he’s not at fault, but it doesn’t change his feelings. Even after deciding to start his journey after all a few months later, Janus still dedicates most of his energy to trying to solve his uncle’s disappearance, investigating any and all rumors that he thinks might be related.
This search leads him to end up being thrown through space and time via mysterious ruins in Sinnoh, arriving in Hisui and losing most of his memories in the process. After this point, his greatest regret is his lack of memory. He knows that he’s forgotten something important, and frequently worries over the people he knows he left behind, even if he can’t remember them.
43. Does your character have a switch that changes aspects of their personality whether they are around friends, family, etc. Is there someone who gets to see their true self?
Janus hides his feelings behind his cheery expression and mannerisms, though most of the time, his smile is genuine. While he’s truly friendly and outgoing, he doesn’t show his most honest feelings and self to anyone but those he considers close friends and family. Prior to the Hisui Arc, these people were quite numerous, and anyone who spent time with him for long enough would be able to pick up on his various moods without too much difficulty, even though he expresses himself differently than most people.
However, after he ends up in Hisui and loses his memories, Janus becomes much more guarded. This is partially due to his amnesia, but also because people in Hisui tend to be wary of him – seeing him as an outsider and finding him strange and even threatening due to being a Faller. Janus doesn’t want to get hurt or shunned even more, so only opens up around a very select few people and even then, the only person who he shows his most true self to is Volo.
This is the second half of this ask! This post will be about Winona & Kris’s daughter, Amethyst!
01. What does your character’s name mean? Did you pick it for the symbolism, or did you just like the way it sounded?
Amethyst is named after the gemstone! Kris’s full name is Crystal, after the game she debuted in, while her daughter has purple hair like Winona, so it felt obvious for her to be named after a purple type of crystal.
08. What is, perhaps, their biggest flaw? Are they aware of this or oblivious to it?
Amethyst has a habit of taking on too much responsibility for herself. She’s bad at recognizing her own limits, and often ends up burnt-out from trying to do too many things at once. She’s not good at accepting help from other people, insisting she can do everything herself, but this can lead to her biting off more than she can chew and ending up in trouble. She’s somewhat aware of this flaw, but thinks she can overcome it on her own – which doesn’t end particularly well for her.
10. Is your character more feminine or masculine?
Amethyst is fairly feminine! She admires Winona’s grace and poise a lot, and tries to emulate her – though unfortunately she has a clumsy streak. Out of practicality, she usually dresses in more sporty fashion, but always tries to look professional. She puts a lot of thought into her outfits and presentation, and prefers styles that are more girly and charming – she has a special fondness for sailor-style clothing.
12. Is there some particular talent, skill, or attribute that they simply could not give up?
Amethyst takes great pride in her so called “eye for opportunity”. She claims that she can sense potential from a mile away, and is always looking for a new project to try and get off the ground. Her most successful venture so far is the delivery business she and her Pelipper run together, but she’s always looking for new avenues to expand her market to. Most of the time, her projects don’t pan out, but Amethyst always bounces back from failure, ready to try again with something new!
