More Emoji prompts for my traveler Katiya! picked and choose from the object section this time. cut for length and it's still going to be in two parts
🏊 SWIMMING - can they swim? or are they afraid of water? how well do they swim? how do they feel about swimming in the ocean?
She loves to swim and is a very strong swimmer!
One of her dreams is to finally swim in the ocean. the currents will take her by surprise b/c she's only even swum in pools/fountains/small lakes but it will be more excitement then anything else.
📣 MEGAPHONE - how loud are they? what do they speak like? got a voice claim?
I don't have a voice claim for Katiya, i tend not to find one for my characters anyway
But her speaking voice is usually quiet, due to her upbringing and she doesn't want to attract attention. Enunciates well and clearly
Should have a goldian accent but I like the idea that she trained herself to have a different one. Specifically, a Kitalphan one like her mothers and as an adult can switch between them.
Has a bit of a stutter when she gets excited/nervous
📖 OPEN BOOK - do they like reading? what's their favourite genre?
She does like to read! However, the library was a public area to the rest of the palace and if there are specific books she liked would have to take and read them in her room.
Ends up spending more time in the library (it is very nice and cozy) while Vexx is at the palace since he acts as a kind of buffer
While she enjoys reading romance books she would often feel bittersweet after reading them.
So, instead, gravitated to fantasy books as well as maps and atlases/dossiers on other planets and countries.
📸 CAMERA - do they enjoy having their picture taken? what's their go-to pose? do they like taking photos? what do they take photos of?
Katiya's not a big fan of pictures being taken of her.
Pre-game this usually meant getting dressed up and spending time with her family, being posed and prompted, and getting her hair pulled at some point.
However, has found she likes having pictures of places she's gone/ppl she cares about as reminders/mementos
Will warm up to getting her picture taken by others but isn't inclined towards selfies
🍼 BABY BOTTLE - what are their thoughts on children?
In short: no.
She doesn't have a soft spot or anything and she certainly doesn't want to have any herself.
Not to say she's mean or cruel, she'll be nice if a little awkward
🔪 KNIFE - how do they react to injury / misfortune befalling their loved ones (significant other, family, friends)? do they put themselves at blame?
She wants to help/fix it/make it stop but she doesn't know how. Ryona being around and knowing what to do and directing that energy helps a lot
Adrenaline kicks in and she does what she needs to- probably cries while doing it
Example: After Vexx is shot, helps Ryona however she can and goes right to Cal w/o protest. Ends up crying at the navigation terminal after she's calmed down a little b/c that whole thing with Wren was A LOT. (can you imagine being them and having Vexx's confession + almost falling in a death pit + Vexx almost dying + getting ambushed + getting 1-2 guns leveled at your head in the span of 5 min + almost watching Bash get his head cut off in the span of like an hour? like. fuck)
🎵 MUSIC NOTE - what is their playlist like? their favourite artists? do you associate a particular song with them?
Katiya listens to all kinds of music, and likes doing so. Hate to be a basic bitch but i think pop would be her favorite genre, it has a lot of songs she can sing along to.
Her listening playlist would be extremely varied
I do have a character playlist here on spotify
Nine by sleeping at last, and is a song that I heavily associate with her and started her playlist with- more recently Waiting on the Sky to Change and Hold the girl ring true as well
🎤 MICROPHONE - are they good at singing? what is their go-to karaoke song?
She is very good at singing. Has good projection and control, and was trained for many years (it's hard not to be good when you have a decade+ of training under your belt.)
Has a naturally lower register but through all that training and practice has a wide range.
Idk good karaoke songs so i dont have an answer for the second part but she enjoys singing ballads
However, she doesn't really believe her voice is all that good; the only people who were remotely encouraging or impressed were Nerissa, her tutor, and later Vexx.
🎷 SAXOPHONE - do they play any instruments? are they any good at it?
She can play many instruments but gravitated towards string instruments and favors the harp.
While singing was her main focus, she did not skimp on learning instruments and is good at the ones she practiced

Pick 2 OC questions for each of the A6 girls
Savi
7. What song reminds you of this oc? Does this match up with the type of music your oc likes to listen to?
Fly (Maddie & Tae) which isn't exactly the type of music she likes. She likes stuff like Kelly Clarkson or Christina Perri more than country, but she'd probably listen to Maddie & Tae without complaining.
11. Does your oc have any interests/hobbies that they hide from everyone? Why do they hide these interests?
Not so much hiding as just shy about her embroidery and the sketching she does to plan out designs. Most people never cared about it when she was a princess, it doesn’t have any practical value so she feels like it would be a silly thing to bring up on the Andromeda Six, and she doesn’t think she’s all that good at the sketching. (June and Bash would both roll their eyes and disagree strenuously if she confessed that while showing them her sketches)  But the first time she fixes a rip in her uniform with a spray of embroidered flowers, Aya and Bash are immediately “THAT’S SO COOL :D” and she starts reevaluating her views of that talent.
Rue
1. What’s your oc’s most irrational fear? Is there a specific reason this fear came about?
Slugs. She stepped on one barefoot once and completely squished it and the sensation of cold and slimy on her foot took FOREVER to go away(this may or may not be inspired by personal experience >.<) so she's always freaked out at the thought of it happening again bc it was really gross. Vexx teases her about it a LOT during his time as her guard.
20. What’s a superpower or magical ability that this oc would hate having?
Invisibility. She already feels like no one (except Vexx and Nerissa) sees her, why would she ever want to make that literal?
Faith
16. What’s your oc’s nighttime routine like?
Strip down to tank top and undies for sleeping, brush teeth etc, read/otherwise mess around on her holopad for about an hour, then sprawl on her stomach and be dead to the world(50/50 shot she's snoring juuuust a little) in five minutes tops.
25. How does your oc handle sadness?
Talks it out, usually to plants, but a wall will do. Back at the palace she would have basically lived in her greenhouse and talked/cried it out to her orchids for a couple days(Who'd miss her?). On the Andromeda Six, she borrows Ryona's flowers since she hasn't had time to collect many of her own. If it's really bad she'll just curl up and cry her eyes out.
Aurah
4. Is your oc good at keeping secrets?
Oh, yes, very good. She says her lips are sealed, no one will hear so much as a syllable of it from her.
10. Who’s the first person your oc goes to to talk about something that made them happy? Sad? Angry?
At the palace, the answer to all of those was Nerissa(for a while Sorenn got her angry venting, but they drifted apart after he joined the Crown Guard) with Vexx in a close second, on the Andromeda Six it's Ryona for happy and angry and Calderon(romance) gets the sad bc she doesn't feel like she has to be strong around him. :))))

Okay so it's 11:40 pm rn and im listening to the Arcane Soundtrack and you know what that means????
brain making cinematic scenes and bullshit for different fandoms im in.
First up, Andromeda Six
They have VERY similar vibes so I'm not surprised my brain made this kinda connection.
Spoilers for Andromeda Six (or what we have so far) because many i d e a s
So, Playground, i believe its the first song in the soundtrack, hella good, like all the songs.
Personally, my brian was imagining something like they actually did in Arcane, scene wise.
-Imagine Playground (by Bea Miller) playing in the background as the Andromeda Six lands onto Cursa and as the crew walks down into the landing pad (or whatever its called) of the bunker, MC just taking in everything, cuz holy shit, its nothing like Goldis...
Alternatively, similar vibes: Playground going on in the background as MC and the two crew members they chose to have come as they walk through the current district of Cursa they're in, cuz, once again, holy shit, everything so different.
-Next up, I believe its called Our Love? I'll have to double check later, (it is called Our Love by Curtis Harding and Jazmine Sullivan) but i imagine this one being very soft..
It would be the music playing at the masquerade in the main flashbacks (even if you're not romancing Vexx)
That's it really, it's just hella soft.
- REAL HEARTBREAKER UP NOW- Goodbye (by Ramsey) ughhh my heart
So i have two ideas for this one
First, in episode 3(?) when MC regains some of their memories... its playing in the background softly as Vexx leaves and continues on as Bash leads MC back to the A6 and dies out as they enter the hanger..
OR
Second, episode 5, when MC follows Vexx on Orion... This is also when Vexx finds out his parents, the reason he had done all this horrible shit, were dead. I think it would be a really nice point for a flashback, or multiple even. MAYBE EVEN OVERLAPPING FLASHBACKS????
But yeah. Owie.
I have two more ideas for the rest of this post so yeah. I'll probably end up doing more of these cuz they're fun.
-For Dirty Little Animals (by BONES UK) could be like... this might be a long shot, but i think its episode 3 when MC gets separated from the other two members of the crew and they're running through a buncha alleyways- i dunno, i think that'd just be neat.
Maybe MC keeps almost running down one alleyway but then they either second guess themself or think they see one of the K'Merii Soldiers down them and changes course... then it dies down when MC stumbles to the floor and meets Vexx again..
But picks back up with that one line "I don't have one person to protect.. i have six" and then ITS ONE OF THOSE SHOTS WHERE IT ONLY SHOWS MCs EYES AND THEY LOOK REALLY DETERMINED AND THE LINE "... Beautiful cannibals" IS WHEN THAT SHOT COMES UP!!!
Anyway, yeah thats an idea.
-Finally, Enemy (by Imagine Dragons, i prefer the version without JID, but to each their own.) I also had two ideas for this song.
First, TRAINING MONTAGE!!!!! Naturally, you can rarely ever go wrong with one of those.
OR!
In episode 5, when MC and the crew of A6 are fighting the guards of Orion.
Those last two ideas are a bit weak but i think its cuz im tired. its 12:07 am.
Moral of the story is watch Arcane or AT LEAST LISTEN TO THE SOUNDTRACK PLEAS-

The Princess and the Guard - Living on a Prayer
Vexx surveyed the small club as they entered. It was pretty empty, as to be expected so early in the evening. His gaze travelled to the princess beside him, who was taking the scene in, wonder in her eyes.
“Happy?” he asked.
The smile she cast his way was a little bit smug. “Very.”
Taking her arm, he led her over to one of the booths along the back wall and asked himself when the slight shift in their power dynamic had occurred. Because when she had first asked him to take her out for a drink he had declined. While she was getting bolder, wanting to explore more, live more, she was still super sheltered. Pleading with him to take her, she had even admitted that she had never had alcohol before. And while he was already risking his neck sneaking around with her at all, getting her intoxicated felt like a one-way ticket to getting caught. Yet here they were, and he was still trying to figure out why he had let her sway him.
Aurora slid into the booth and started scrolling through the menu. “What do you suggest?” she asked. “I want something fancy.”
“Of course you do,” he reached across the table and flicked his finger against her nose, gaining a glare for the trouble. She did look fancy herself, her curls gathered back in a high ponytail that she had adorned with an actual bowtie. Like a girl from one of the old movies she enjoyed, cute but clearly not on par with the current fashion of the gold district.
“Come on, who knows when I’ll get the chance for something like this again? I need to make it count,” she flicked to the next section of drinks, reading with a slightly furrowed brow. Her words gave him a twinge of regret. Don’t think of it, he told himself, when maybe he should have told himself to think of the reasons that had gotten him into this whole mess in the first place. Justice. Freedom. Hope for a better world.  
He reached across the table, scrolling through the menu until he got to the coladas. “One of those would probably be the right thing for you.”
When their order arrived Aurora delightedly picked the little umbrella out of her strawberry colada, twirling it between her fingers. “Look at this, this is so cute!”
“Yes, super cute garbage.”
“At least my drink doesn’t look bland like yours,” she took a little sip of the colada.
“My drink is for grown-ups, little lady.”
“My drink is good,” she announced, then reached for his. “Let me try yours?”
He pushed over his Jack and Coke, watching her closely as she took the straw in her mouth, and then as her nose crinkled in disgust.
“Ew. Are you sure you can still function after finishing that? Huh,” she fanned her face with her hands, her eyes watering, and he couldn’t help but laugh. Good thing he had told the waiter to make sure there was a bit less rum in her drink than they normally put in.
“You are such a lightweight, princess. I should have been a responsible adult and gotten you a juice. Yes, I am sure that I’ll function just fine,” he accompanied that with a wink, making her blush furiously.
She went back to sipping her cocktail, and then she got a far-off look, and when he started to ask her what was wrong, she raised a finger to silence him. His gaze shifted to the booth behind her and the group that had sat down there. It was a bit hard to make out what they were talking about with the music, so he leaned across the table, keeping an eye on Aurora’s expression as he listened.
“I mean, how many bad calls can a person possibly make? It’s time he fucking dies!”
Her eyebrows shot up.
“Who knows? As lucky as we are, he’ll reign for another couple decades before he finally bites it.”
“Probably. But do you guys really think his daughter will be better? She’s probably just as shitty as he is.”
Vexx reached out, his hand sneaking around the back of Aurora’s neck, pulling her forward until his lips almost grazed her ear and some lose curls tickled his nose. “You don’t have to listen to this, we can go sit somewhere else.”
“No, I… I want to hear it,” she murmured, and for a moment he was awfully tempted to press his lips to hers, distract her, shield her from the world and the ugly truths she hadn’t ever been confronted with. Kiss her until she forgot everything but his name.
Instead he slowly leaned  back again, taking a gulp of his drink. Aurora listened to the group drone on about the economy, rising taxes, the dumpster fires that the other planets had become, until they finally switched topics and started speculating if their friend Sharice had STDs or not.
His princess pushed around the remaining ice cubes in her empty glass, a troubled look on her face. “I sometimes forget how much there is to fix,” she admitted.
He shrugged, torn between the need to comfort her and launching into a tirade about how monarchy would fix jack shit.
“And I mean they,” she vaguely gestured towards them, leaning towards him and lowering her voice, “are rich, right? If even they are this discontent…”
“Whiny rich kids,” he agreed. “They think the world ought to be handed to them, but it’s only handed to one certain family and that pisses them off.”
She sighed, bit her lip and tilted her empty glass. “Can I have another?”
“Sure,” he heard himself say, already sensing that it was a mistake.
He was proven right when she tried to drag him onto the dance floor half an hour later. “Come on, it’ll be fun!”
“You’re drunk,” he remarked, taking in her rosy cheeks, “everything will be fun for you right now.” He wished he had drunken more himself. The whole excurse to politics had reminded him that he was losing focus around her way too often and that in turn had soured his mood. It made him wonder if he really was the right person for this job, because someone like Damon wouldn’t have been side-tracked like this.
Another girl bumped into Aurora, steadied herself holding on to her arm, and then took her in with a slow drag of her eyes. “Your dress is so pretty,” she exclaimed, and Vexx rolled his eyes.
“Aw, thank you,” the princess smoothed the short circle skirt down, “you look super pretty, too.”
The girl laughed and cast a quick glance at him, measuring him up. He narrowed his eyes at her. Back off, he thought.
“My song,” the girl shrieked, grabbed Aurora’s hand, and pulled her into the dancing crowd before he could protest.
Vexx sighed. He lingered at the edge of the dancefloor and kept his eyes on his princess as she laughed and danced with the girl and her friends, looking so happy and free that he did not want to stop her.  
When the first girl got a bit too close to Aurora he tensed up, but then his princess shook her head and said something, nodding her head in his direction. The girl replied something that made her blush and cast a glance his way. A grin spread across his face as the girl backed up a little. That’s right, princess. Tell them you are my girl.
He probably should have intervened when one of the girls shared her drink with Aurora. At the point they started dancing on one of the tables he definitely should have intervened, but instead he just got closer, just in case.
Aurora looked like a disco queen up on the table, dancing and singing to the song along with her newfound friends, radiating so much energy. And she was clearly drunk at this point, after just two cocktails and a few sips of beer. She spun, little of the gracefulness from her dance classes showing through. And then she stumbled, tilted. He jumped forward, reaching out. Her body crashed against his, her forehead hitting his chin hard, and he stumbled a few steps backwards before steadying them. For a moment he was worried that she was hurt, but then she laughed, her hands roaming over his shoulders as she righted herself. He still held her close, brushing her hair back from her face.
“Sorry,” she slurred, trailing her fingers over his chin.
“It’s fine,” he found himself grinning back at her. Her friends were still sing-shouting along to the music.
“We’ve gotta hold on, to what we’ve got,” she sang along, a bit off key, framing his face with her hands. Her gaze flickered from his eyes to his lips, and then she got up on her tiptoes and kissed him, while his chin was still throbbing from her former impact. It was a short kiss, her lips pressed to his and then already gone again, but it was enough to make his breath hitch. There was a holler from one of the girls on the table, and Aurora’s face was flushed as she stepped back from him, her fingers tangled with his.
“Woaaah, halfway there!” she launched back into the song, jumping up and down, and he couldn’t help but go along with their energy. Allowed himself to forget about his mission and what was to come and just live in the moment, dancing and singing with the girl he liked, allowing his heart to beat faster with the thought of stealing another kiss from her, as the song blasted on.
It doesn’t make a difference if we make it or not…
(The lines from the song at the end here are from “Living on a Prayer” by Bon Jovi. Since we don’t know what kind of music they will have in the future I think it’s fair to play pretend with what we have, even though it would be beyond ancient by then^^)
