Purple, pandas and black raspberry with peanut butter swirls.
A person's favorite color, favorite animal, and favorite flavor of ice cream can say a lot about them when considering the answers as a whole. Some prime examples I've heard are:
~ Silver, Artic Wolf, and Mint Chocolate Chip.
~ Pink/Yellow, Putu Bird, and Cotton Candy.
~ Light Brown, Tree Kangaroo, and Rum Raisin.
~ Green, Pig, and Cookie Dough.
Mine are:
~ Burgundy, Fox, and Moose Tracks.
Tag some friends and get a sense of who they are! :)

Some tips for using a few words to describe voices:
1. Tone Words: Use tone words to convey the emotional quality of a voice. For example, you can describe a voice as "melodic," "soothing," "sharp," "gentle," or "commanding" to give readers a sense of the tone.
2. Pitch and Range: Mention the pitch and range of the voice. Is it "deep," "high-pitched," "raspy," or "full-bodied"? This can provide insight into the character's age, gender, or emotional state.
3. Accent and Diction: Describe the character's accent or diction briefly to give a sense of their background or cultural influences. For instance, "British-accented," "Southern drawl," or "formal."
4. Volume: Mention the volume of the voice, whether it's "whispering," "booming," "murmuring," or "hushed."
5. Quality: Use terms like "velvet," "silken," "gravelly," "honeyed," or "crisp" to convey the texture or quality of the voice.
6. Rate of Speech: Describe how fast or slow the character speaks, using words like "rapid," "slurred," "measured," or "rambling."
7. Mood or Emotion: Indicate the mood or emotion carried by the voice. For example, a "quivering" voice may convey fear or anxiety, while a "warm" voice may express comfort and reassurance.
8. Resonance: Describe the resonance of the voice, such as "echoing," "nasal," "booming," or "tinny."
9. Timbre: Mention the timbre of the voice, using words like "rich," "thin," "clear," or "smoky."
10. Cadence: Highlight the rhythm or cadence of speech with descriptors like "staccato," "lilting," "rhythmic," or "halting."
11. Intonation: Convey the character's intonation by saying their voice is "sarcastic," "apologetic," "confident," or "questioning."
12. Vocal Characteristics: If applicable, mention unique vocal characteristics, like a "lisp," "stutter," "drawl," or "accented 'r'."

Black Bulls Month 2023 Prompt 7 : Trust
Magna's POV:
"I'm not too sure about this." Lilah eyed the broom in front of her with uncertainty. Today Luck and I decided it's time she learned how to fly on her own. The broom we bought her for her grimoire acceptance ceremony hasn't been used yet and it would be a waste to just leave it on the ground.
"Oh don't be a baby Lilah this will be so much fun!" Luck chimed, already floating a few feet off the ground on his own standard broom.
"It will be fine. Luck and I will be nearby to help. We won't let you get hurt."
"You make it sound like I'm destined to fall off this thing." She grumbled. The slight pout forming on her face made Luck laugh. I had to fight to keep my own lips from curling.
"Everyone falls for the first time. But that's usually the thin standard broom. Yours is wider with cushion. You should be fine in terms of balance. It's more learning to control it. It takes a bit more precise magic to move it accurately."
The broom was very similar to my own Crazy Cyclone. It was purple though instead of red. Luck thought she was going to give me a hard time for the design. But she loved it.
Problem was she's afraid to fly it.
"What if I do fall off it?"
"Then we catch ya! A real man wouldn't let you fall without any backup."
"He's right Lilah! We'll catch you!" Luck's smile curled ear to ear. Like the cat who's been busted for something.
"Okay umm let's do this then." She straddled the broom and carefully began to flow her magic in. I could feel the cool energy that came with her mana. Like fresh snow falling. It wasn't long before she floated off the ground just enough for her feet to no longer touch the ground. "You sure you guys can catch me if I drop this thing?" Her hazel eyes glowed a bit due to the angle of the sunlight.
"Of course. You trust us don't ya?" I quipped back as I finally flowed my own magic into the Crazy Cyclone to match her height off the ground. Luck circled a few feet above her head. Occasionally teasing the poor girl for not going high enough.
Finally, she let out an exhale, "I trust you Mags. Okay let's do this." Her magic still steady as she floated higher off the ground. I stayed slightly below her just in case she lost her balance. Eventually we made it several feet above the treeline. Luck floated beside her, standing on his own broom, encouraging her to try the same.
"Hey!" I shouted from my position below them, "Let her get used to flying seated first! We haven't even moved yet!"
"You're just saying that because you don't like standing on the Crazy Cyclone."
"That's because you keep knocking me off balance!" The crazy mage would zap me off my broom. He always caught me before I made impact with the dirt but not before scaring the hell out of me first.
"You worry too much! Get up here and fly with us!" He chirped happily.
We flew slowly around the forest area close to the hideout for a while. Using the time to let her get used to flying, correcting her technique as necessary. Luck would occasionally encourage some type of chaos in good fun of course.
Until it was time to get serious.
I noticed the way the front of her broom was shaking. By itself it wouldn't be that big of a deal. It was the look of sweat and exertion she was exhibiting.
"Hey.." I floated until I was level with her left side. Our knees barely touched. "You wanna take a break? We've been up here a long time."
Wrong decision. I must have broken her concentration because the entire broom was shaking now. Quickly a grabbed hold of the handlebar closest to me and flowed a bit of my own mana into the broom to stop the shaking. My fingertips felt like ice touching the frost mages broom. I look over to Luck and nod. This isn't the first time we've given lessons and we know what to do in this situation. The lightning mage nodded back and flew out of my line of sight.
"Okay I think it's time we descend. Do you think you can do that?"
She was clearly anxious but nodded anyway.
"Okay keep your mana as steady as you can. When you're ready, slowly lower the amount of mana you're inputting into the brooo-!"
She lowered her mana too fast. The backend of the broom dropped from under her. The front end was upright barely from my own strained mana input. She was dangling from the handlebars. I lowered the Crazy Cyclone. While trying to keep her broom in the same spot. "Lilah can you hop onto the Crazy Cyclone?"
"What about-"
"Don't worry about the broom. Just hop on!"
I could see one of her hands starting to slip. She wasn't gonna make it on in time.
"LUCK!" I called out.
"I got it!" I looked down and he was a few feet below her.
"Okay new plan! Let go of the bars!"
"Are you insane!?" She screamed while trying to adjust her grip.
"You gotta trust me! Just let go!"
She scanned my face briefly. "I trust you." Was barely a whisper before she let go. Her following screams drowning the prior sentence out. Luck caught her in his arms and with that her screams cut off. There was a brief moment of silence as we all floated in place before their laughter was the only sound that could be heard. I exhaled a breath I didn't realize I was holding.
Eventually we all made it to the ground okay.
"That was fun! When can we do it again?" Luck was already zipping around us like nothing happened.
"No way, battle freak. Give us a break before we go back up." I quipped back before facing Lilah, "Are you okay?"
She looked thoughtful, "I'm fine Magna. The scare aside I had a lot of fun. Thank you."
All in all it was a good day for the three of us.

Black Bulls Month 2023 Prompt 6: Missing Scene
Luck gazed at the scene before him. Captain Jack was beaten to hell. Zora remained on the sidelines. Asta stood a good foot between himself and the person the lightning mage was fixated on.
Magna Swing had returned.
Not only had he returned but he knocked out one of the most powerful adversaries that stood in the Black Bulls way. Dante was out cold behind him. Small flames still burned bright throughout the room. Magna's clothes were burned, ripped, and torn. His typically perfectly gelled hair fell apart and down his face, framing his triumphant smile. 
The lightning mage took a small step forward and then stopped. What should he say? It's been over 6 months since they last spoke. With so much on the line he wasn't exactly supportive when his partner's training went south. 
No, he gave him a hard time instead. 
It's something that has haunted the blonde since the pair parted ways back in the Heart Kingdom. He doesn't regret the power he now holds. But the thought of their separation that day left a bitter taste in his mouth. 
He tried not to dwell on it at the time. Instead focusing all his energy toward gaining more power. So that he could fight harder, longer, so he can protect the team that has become a family to him. 
But he always wondered how Magna was holding up. 
Now here he is. Mere feet away and the blonde just can't bring himself to move forward and congratulate his partner on a job well done. Captain Yami himself struggled against Dante even with Asta's help and Magna was able to finish the job. 
"Luck…" 
It was a breathless whisper. He barely heard it. But the sound of his name on the Fire mages lips snapped him to attention. Piercing gray eyes met brilliant blue as the two stood there like time itself stood still. 
It was Magna who acted first as he hobbled toward Luck to close the gap in a big hug. 
"I told ya I wouldn't let you pull ahead of me ya jerk." Magna chuckled as he held the lightning mage tight. 
"Magna I…" 
The fire mage pulled back to stand in front. He was clearly favoring one leg and kept one hand on the blonde's shoulder for balance. The hand burned from overuse of magic. Luck could feel it almost burn his skin.
"If you two are done playing grab ass…" Zora walked past the pair toward the doorway. "I think we still have a job to do." 
"Right." Magna nodded, "You ready to go kick some ass? Yami is waiting for us." 
The reminder of what's at stake snaps Luck back to reality. 
"Then let's go! This time you can see what new tricks I've learned! This will be so much fun!" 
Just like that he was gone in a flash of blue. Ready to take on the challenge that lies ahead of him.

Black Bulls Month 2023 Prompt 5: Bonding
Silence.
It was a quiet day in the Black Bulls Hideout. No arguing. No screaming. No laughter. No sheep cooks running in and out of the kitchen. There wasn't even the sound of smoking or newspapers flipping.
It made Luck absolutely restless.
After living in the hideout for many years. There were certain things that one didn't think should or shouldn't happen. It just happened. Like the sound of Asta screaming, "GOOD MORNING FELLOW BLACK BULLS!" or Magna leaping out of his seat to pick a fight post provocation. It eventually just becomes a norm.
Until it doesn't.
The evening prior, a high amount of mission requests came in from the Wizard King. Asta and Magna were already gone on an assignment before these came in, and the new ones required… a less destructive approach.
So the lightning mage was stuck by himself in the hideout in case anyone contacts the base. He paced the common room. His mana sense in overdrive waiting for something, anything to happen.
That's when he felt it. The familiar warmth approaching the front door. Without realization the Blue Grimoire floated out of its case. Lightning wrapped around his legs as he bolted toward the door. The door was barely open when he divebombed the entryway. Static sparks scattered everywhere on impact, completely shattering the wood door and frame.
The two teammates whom he just snuck up on sat in a comical scene. They were covered in dirt and sweat, and their clothes had pieces of the door stuck to it. Stunned expressions and static hair. The lightning mages laughter echoed through the base.
They never saw it coming.
"WHAT WAS THAT FOR LUCK?!" The anti magic user screeched once the initial surprise wore off. The fire mage, however, decided to speak with actions. The warmth of his mana intensified as he pulled his fire bat out of his grimoire and pointed it in his teammates direction.
"You wanna go?! Let's take this outside!" His voice felt like fire in Luck's ears. A fire he didn't realize he needed after pacing the base all morning. The fire mage eyed him carefully. His posture leaving little opening for another surprise attack.
It absolutely thrilled him!
"Hahaha sounds like fun! Let's go Magna! Hope you're ready to lose!" Blue lightning enveloped his frame once more as he raced passed his partner and out toward the training ground.
"Yeah right! You're the one who's gonna lose! Wait for me ya jerk!" His voice filled with excitement as it echoed behind the lightning mage.
This was what he needed. What he was missing earlier today. His daily bonding with his best friend.
He wouldn't have it any other way.

“why would you write fics for small, unpopular fandoms? you’re not gonna reach that many hits in fandoms not many people know about” ?? because I’m not writing fics for hits or kudos, I’m writing them for me because these characters are my blorbos and I have so many ideas, so much thoughts about them that my brain might explode if I don’t write them out.
