I've decided to just do Gyen/Mel as well, just because it's not fun if I do this with some other fandom, and then nobody understands
1. Who is the most affectionate?
They're not really affectionate. More like they just do things for the other. Mel's at least more open/talkative about asking and offering help. Gyendal just... does things without saying anything or being asked.
2. Big spoon/Little spoon?
Gyendal, hahahahahhaaa. He grabs Mel, and she just begrudgingly lets him hold her.
3. Most common argument?
Everything and nothing. They would flail and yell, someone would sulk (usually Mel), and then in the morning everything is back to normal.
4. Favorite non-sexual activity?
Practicing magic together. And half of the time it ends up with Mel running out of Mana and just tackling Gyendal and (try to) beat him up with the staff or something
5. Who is most likely to carry the other?
I don't think Mel can actually carry Gyendal at all ahahahaha... since he's taller than her, it's really awkward.
6. What is their favorite feature of their partner’s?
Does it matter? :/
12. Who initiates kisses?
Both. Though... I think for the first one it's Mel. I just have this headcanon that vampires don't touch each other like normal humans would, so for Gyendal a kiss wouldn't be a familiar gesture.
13. Who reaches for the other’s hand first?
Is it weird that I can't really imagine them holding hands? Except maybe if one of them is about to fall off a cliff or something, and needs a hand.
14. Who kisses the hardest?
Mel, because Gyendal can't get a hang of human-y things for a good long while and leaves Mel really frustrated.
15. Who wakes up first?
Gyendal. He's a hard-worker LOL.
16. Who wants to stay in bed just a little longer?
Mel. I don't think she actually wakes up unless someone wakes her
17. Who says I love you first?
... I think it would be Gyen, although it would be more in a "is this what people call love?" kind of way.
18. Who leaves little notes in the other’s one lunch? (Bonus: what does it usually say?)
Too Disney, LOL. Neither.
19. Who tells their family/friends about their relationship first?
Nobody did. All out of a sudden everyone just gets a wedding invitation, to much shock/horror/glee (pick one).
20. What do their family/friends think of their relationship?
Oh man, it's hard to say canonically, because my headcanon operates entirely under the AU situation, with daevas and such. I mean, I've made sure to tailor everything to work out just fine without changing the quest, only the ending, but still...
The "official" ending I have in mind is that after Gyendal gets sent over to Demon Realm, he gets caught by the dimension guards who've been noticing weird activity in the gateway between realms. And after much paperwork, interrogation, and a lot of annoying back and forth with the two Oracles... The daevas are allowed to officially send their agents to the human world to reconcile the two dimensions, and to crack down on any weird notions of abusing power. And Gyendal gets to be one of the human realm contacts because he's been around for a while.
Edward and the rest of the group would be disgruntled/disbelieving, but with the daevas and their minions running around for a while, they don't really mind. And Te'ijal is just snarkily like "Couldn't you have done this WITHOUT the taking over the world part? That's not nice".
21. Who is more likely to start dancing with the other?
Neither In my headcanon, Gyendal and Tei'jal's family is a wizard-warrior type who don't do dances (except swordsinger-esque sword dance-manoeuver I guess).
22. Who cooks more/who is better at cooking?
Mel, although all she does is make roast stuff. Gyendal is still adjusting to human food (especially if the AU baggage is involved... there's no need for food in Demon Realm).
23. Who comes up with cheesy pick-up lines?
Gyendal, just to annoy Mel. He picked those up from romance novels/love guides when he was trying to figure out human courtships to be Spook.
24. Who whispers inappropriate things in the other’s ear during inappropriate times?
Gyendal, again, LOLOLOL. For the same reason as above.
25. Who needs more assurance?
Both do, in a way... I imagine it wouldn't be easy for Gyendal to reassimilate into human life, even with the ease-up I arranged in the AU situation. And Mel have been living in a fight-or-flight situation throughout her life, so she'd need to learn to live a more stable life.
26. What would be their theme song?
I was actually working on a music video about them like 2-3 years ago? With this song, but... it just... scuttled...
27. Who would sing to their child back to sleep?
Neither of them sings. Mel just grumpily complains that the baby (Uma) won't sleep, while Gyendal just rambles on and on about theory of magic/government/vampire history/booky stuff that the baby (Nox) won't understand anyway.
28. What do they do when they’re away from each other?
Their work. Whatever it is. I dunno, I think Mel would end up being the store owner that sells adventurers their Aquafolium Extoras, weapons, all that stuff. And VERY snarkily makes comments on the places they go too ("oooh back in my days, the don't have those").
If Gyendal's free he would do the glowing soul projection thing to bother Mel (she needs a lot more work to be able to do that back to him haha). But in a non-AU context, I imagine his normal work is something like a magic scientist? Working on new magic spells, putting theories into writing... basically he makes magic textbooks... or at least create the theories/formulas, and have someone else dumb down his long-winded writings into something students can understand.
In the AU context he's some kinda magic police, and cracks down on people trying to take over the world. That's illegal and you can't do that
29. One headcanon about this OTP that breaks your heart.
I dunno, hahah... I can't think of any sob headcanons.
30. One headcanon about this OTP that mends it.
Nothing? Oh, but if we're just talking favourite headcanons, I have this really messed up timetravel AU. Where human-Gyendal steps into the portal and gets sent back in time right into Mel and co's path. He doesn't have enough time to teleport away so he just disguises himself, and... gets dragged along to join the quest. Hijinks ensue. Especially when he has to find excuses to ditch out of the battles against himself. This is the only way I can visualize this pairing to happen without dragging in the AU baggage.

5. Who is most likely to carry the other?
I don't think Mel can actually carry Gyendal at all ahahahaha... since he's taller than her, it's really awkward.
6. What is their favorite feature of their partner’s?
For Mel, Gyendal's voice. For Gyendal, Mel's eyes.
If this is about personality, I don't think they have any? Since them coming together is a long and slow process of denials and all sorts of hijinks, so nothing personality-wise stands out.
7. What’s the first thing that changes when they realize they have feelings for the other?
They're both so dense it would take a while to realize it in the first place, haha.
Then it becomes denial. 99% of the debate would be against themselves, since in my headcanon they don't really start working things out until post-quest. And after everything is sorted out, it's just a matter of getting over the bad aftertaste from the quest (on Mel's side, mostly).
8. Nicknames? & if so, how did they originate?
Oh man, I don't remember the game much anymore, I need to go back and play. I'm not one for nicknames, so for the longest time I just have them call each other by name.
9. Who worries the most?
Gyendal. Being the calculating type, he doesn't like being not in control of the situation. And, well, Mel can be unpredictable sometimes.
10. Who remembers what the other one always orders at a restaurant?
Gyendal, because he's always observant of things. And I think Mel would actually sometimes find herself surprised at seeing him eat at all.
11.Who tops?

Rules:
1: This is supposed to be for crack pairings. I don’t care what kind of crack pairing. It could be two canon characters that nobody but you seems to ship, or two of your own OCs that you just know you shouldn’t ship. It’s your own definition of ‘crack pairing’.
2: Write as if the characters are answering, as best as you can in their personalities and how they would react. This is important for characters that are yours or aren’t.
3: Post these rules and the ‘created by’ statement.
4. Try and tag 3 people! If you can’t find 3 people to tag, it’s okay!
Ship: Agas and Rhen from Aveyond.
Ship: Agas and Rhen from Aveyond.
~~~~~~
WARNING: FANMADE IDEAS GALORE
1. Hello! Who are you two? I haven’t seen you around!
Agas: I would honestly be more surprised if you have heard of me. People rarely do. I am Agas, one of seven daevas. At least, I am one in name only. There is a complicated explanation for the circumstances, and I suggest you ask 
for more details.
for more details. Rhen: I'm Rhen Darzon... Do I really have to bring up the Pendragon? It doesn't really matter anymore, does it?
Agas: I don't suppose it does, considering the context.
Agas: I don't suppose it does, considering the context.
2. What are you from? Are you from a book/anime/movie/tv show or are you OCs?
Rhen: We're both from the RPG called Aveyond: Rhen's Quest. I'm the main character. My name's even in the title, see?
Agas: Considering 99% of my character are made-up, you can say I am barely any different than an OC.
3. So, another question. Why are you considered a crack pairing?
Rhen: Easy. Because barely talked to each other in the canon material. Unless you count "I challenge you to a fight" as talking. Oh, and he's one of the... mm, assistants? Underlings? Er, what are you to Ahriman, exactly?
Agas: You may say that we were his tools for a season.
Rhen: Yes, that. He was helping the great big evil Ahriman conquer the world, and I'm the Chosen One who was supposed to stop that from happening.
Agas: And I'll remind you that you did not, in fact, challenge me at that time either, to be precise. It was that Sun Priest. So, no, we did not talk to each other even once.
Rhen: ... Huh, you're right. Well, there you go. We were barely in the same scene for a few minutes. Beating up each other in battle don't really count.
Rhen: Yes, that. He was helping the great big evil Ahriman conquer the world, and I'm the Chosen One who was supposed to stop that from happening.
Agas: And I'll remind you that you did not, in fact, challenge me at that time either, to be precise. It was that Sun Priest. So, no, we did not talk to each other even once.
Rhen: ... Huh, you're right. Well, there you go. We were barely in the same scene for a few minutes. Beating up each other in battle don't really count.
4. If you’re from a published work (book, anime, ect.), what scene made this ship come alive? If you’re OCs, what did your creator do that made you two a crack couple?
Rhen: Well, you see, in Aveyond 2 it was established that you can actually kidnap people through the Dreamland. Because Agas was stationed in the Dreamland, ran with the idea that we met through dreams.
ran with the idea that we met through dreams. Agas: That was one reason. The other was because thought that having me try to lure her to join our side through the dreams because I don't trust the Sun Priest is better than the idea that I was just standing around staring into space the whole time.
Rhen: Would you really have just stared into space, though?
Agas: Maybe. The hypnosis that made me agree to help Ahriman clogged up my mind enough to make me not remember most of what I was doing. Except talking to you, Rhen.
Rhen: ...Hush, you.

Rhen: ...Hush, you.
5. What reasons make it so you two shouldn’t be a pairing?
Agas: Without all the made-up material, it simply makes no sense. That is all.
Rhen: Right. Except for being extra strong and carrying the Dreamer's Tear, he's really not much different than the monsters I regularly beat up in the forests.
Agas: Is that how you think of me? I'm offended.
Rhen: Please, you obviously aren't.
Rhen: Right. Except for being extra strong and carrying the Dreamer's Tear, he's really not much different than the monsters I regularly beat up in the forests.
Agas: Is that how you think of me? I'm offended.
Rhen: Please, you obviously aren't.
6. What do other people think of this ship? Does anyone else know about it?
Rhen: Enough people know. They love it, apparently. It wasn't really a great thing back when you were kind of a prat, though.
Agas: Ignorance is bliss, they say. I don't remember any of that, and I would rather keep it that way.
Rhen: I wouldn't want to remind you. You're cuter this way. Prettier too.
Agas: No, I'm not.
Rhen: Yes, you are.
Agas: Ignorance is bliss, they say. I don't remember any of that, and I would rather keep it that way.
Rhen: I wouldn't want to remind you. You're cuter this way. Prettier too.
Agas: No, I'm not.
Rhen: Yes, you are.
7. Individually, who else are you guys shipped with? What do they think of this pairing?
Rhen: Mostly Lars, although there are some people who did like the official ending with me and Dameon. There was Te'ijal too. I hope nobody tried to ship me with Ahriman *brr*
Agas: You forgot Aesma.
RhenL: Aaaaaah!!! Don't remind me!!!
Agas: That aside, us daevas aren't very interesting to most people. Those who did care tend to focus mostly on dramatic stories and actions, not romance. There was one of myself with daeva Indra... which I probably would not have minded if our Indra were more like her and not like the one I know.
Rhen: Everyone were fine with us together, though. There were a lot of issues to clear up with the Oracle, because apparently the daevas were like the druids of the Demon Realm and everything.
Agas: We had to clean up Demon Realm from all the damages Ahriman did while he was there, and I will have you know that some of those problems still persisted all the way to Aveyond 3. We only started our relationship after things are mostly settled. The other daevas don't really care about our relationship, since none of them really care about anything anyway. I suppose Saurva cares a little, but he is not part of the list of people you're asking us about.

I suppose Saurva cares a little, but he is not part of the list of people you're asking us about.
8. If there were no obstacles in the way of this lovely crack pairing, do you think you two would be a couple?
Rhen: Maybe. I don't know. It's hard to imagine where we'd end up if there are no "obstacles". I mean, Ahriman is an obstacle, but he' the very reason we even met at all.
Agas: There are too many obstacles as it were, particularly the barrier between Demon Realm and the human world and the not-quite-amicable relationship between the inhabitants of both worlds. Without those issues, we would be living in a completely different universe that I would have no way of envisioning.
9. I think that’s it for now, say goodbye!
Agas: There are too many obstacles as it were, particularly the barrier between Demon Realm and the human world and the not-quite-amicable relationship between the inhabitants of both worlds.

9. I think that’s it for now, say goodbye!
Rhen: Is it? I thought it would be longer.
Agas: And now we must return to our work.
Rhen: Aw. Do we really have to?
Agas: I don't suppose you need to. However, I do want to check on Gyendal. Nanghaithya caught him shortly before we had to attend this interview, and I'd like to know if he has not met with unfortunate circumstances.
Rhen: ... Oh dear goddess, it's Professor Nasty. Should I call druid Rashnu?
Agas: I will check the situation first. Then we call him if necessity demands it. Nanghaithya does create something useful from time to time.
Rhen: Right.
*both exit*

The CG Copy-Ninja *Quest*(?) to Nowhere
3 min read
Borrowed the term "Copy-Ninja" from this: fav.me/d4bnrum
Anyways. Just a reflection of my crazy quest to, well, nowhere. For the last... few weeks, I'd say, I've been doing copy-ninja activities with Mobile Otome Games' CGs.
It began when Voltage started spewing crap CGs of Eduardo. It drove me nuts because Eduardo's face is one of the very few things I like about him, and if it's ruined, then my entire experience is RUINED. That pissed me off so much that one day I put my foot down and declared, "Voltage, you suck. Let me SHOW YOU how it's done!" That's when I opened the "CG Doctor Office" daeva-agas.tumblr.com/cgdoctor… I promised myself I will hunt down every single Eduardo "crap-CG" that ever existed and show them who's boss. The one I made for the sequel drew some attention because some people actually thought it was legit and I totally won the edit contest because Voltage's official ones still suck.
I'm going to break off to say: No offense to those who DO like what Voltage produced. I don't like it and I call it crap because that's how I feel.
So that got me way over my head and I decided to make fake CGs from scratch. Which was horrible because when I edit, I still have the Shin picture to reference the measurements and such. Drawing from scratch... I have to wing everything. Not so much fun over there. I managed to put together something that looks okay, and that is still my most-reblogged picture ever on Tumblr daeva-agas.tumblr.com/post/378… Everyone loves it for some reason
Then because I've conquered Voltage, it got into my head that I should try tackling Solmare next. It started with a joke, really, because who in their right mind would dress up the bad guy like a Vegas Chippendale performer? *coughninjalovecough* So because I'm all for romancing the villain, why the hell not?
2 fake CGs of Nobunaga later, I'm this close to actually writing out that route. I mean, I know how to use Ren'py, I know enough about designing interface to be able to make something that resembles the original at least a LITTLE, and I could probably just crop out the sprites from screencaps and promo material.
In retrospect... what the heck was all these for? It was pointless, it didn't help me learn anything new, and it was almost a waste of time. Time I enjoyed wasting, but a waste all the same. I... got to watch a lot of Dr Phil episodes! I watch Dr Phil while I was drawing. I get to practice working on SAI. I found out that I can, in fact, conquer Solmare's very bizarre shading style and do it better than I do Voltage. I also get to research more on the ninjas and the general time period because I double check the facts before I post my angry rant about how everything is wrong.
Conclusion: I had a blast with this LOLz. This quest to nowhere has been fun. I'll still be doing the CG Doctor at least up until Eduardo's sequel, because Voltage has finally found themselves a decent artist who did an okay job converting Shin to Eduardo. Not as good as the original artist, but at least I don't freak and flail when I see the picture.

Also, yay for funky text. "Small fonts" font, size 5.
My text is floating away~
My text is falling down~
