    What battle results do you feel satisfied with?

    I hope someone brought a tourniquet because those results say our protagonist will be going home with their left hand in a sandwich bag.

    If you could bring any anime to real life, which one would you chose?

    Probably one of the Shinto themed ones, like "Kamichu" or "Gingitsune". Maybe even "My Neighbor Totoro." Can we not summon planetary threats everyone?

    What do you think about people who talk to themselves

    Literally every human does this after a bit of time passes while they think they are alone. We possess a potent instinct to broadcast our presence when we are alone. The differences are "how long" and "how alone." For some people, alone in a boat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean isn't alone...

    Your favourite horror anime

    "Shigofumi" would be my favorite I think, although I don't watch much horror (because I can't handle jumpscares or gore). That one was about a world where the dead can send one last letter to any living recipient. The episodes about bullying were intense.

    Now that thanksgiving is over....What is your least favorite thanksgiving food and why?

    I can't eat turkey. All poultry is unpalatable to me; sulfurous and bitter.

    Favorite fictional villains?

    Valor (God of Valor) from scribblehub's "Shattered Moonstone". Rumored to actually be a goat casting illusion magic.

    "AI Syntax" puts me off from reading further. Is it just me?

    I have noticed that AI is really bad at punctuation. I think a lot of authors, and thus the training data AI uses, have various writing tics about how they use certain punctuations and such. But AI can't apply any of it consistently, swapping randomly between various styles. From "okay" to "ok,"...

    As a reader, what do you like or dislike about dark fantasy?

    To the definition of "dark": "The protagonist will suffer for their goals. Even if the protagonist achieves everything they set out to do, there is no happy ending; they will be forever harrowed by their experiences." I can at least appreciate this sort of story, but they are never my favorite...

    How do you control an overpowered character so they don't break the story?

    Just give them catatonic depression, PTSD nightmares, or nonverbal anxiety attacks. If you are feeling cruel you can even throw an eating disorder at them. Yes you can, they just call it a different name is such places. "Organized Crime" is magic.

    The chapter length Goldilocks zone - Time edition

    I think 15~20 minutes is my preferred duration. Anything less than 5 is really annoying.

    Everything has a super power.

    This is unfortunately not true. Mild acids such as cooking vinegar can disable unfired nematocyst cells stuck to the skin from firing their payload (but are not an antidote to toxins already delivered). However urine has a somewhat wide range of possible pH that depends on your diet, usually...

    What's your favorite romance anime/manga/novel?

    There are a number I really enjoyed. "Miracle Girls" was about a pair of twins with telepathy, teleportation, and psychometry, and also their boyfriends. Both the manga and the anime are worth seeing, and this one is older than even me. "Kamisama Kiss" was about a highschool girl who became the...

    What makes you stick with a story from start to finish?

    Start reading: when I am looking for something new to read, I usually search by genre; fantasy, adventure, supernatural, genderbender. Sometimes scifi or by a specific tag. I filter the results by descending wordcount. Getting to the synopsis, there is not a whole lot that will refuse my...
