Mich (for the OC facts ask?)
sHIT I forgot to answer this yesterday but at least i can answer it today lMFAO-
1. Mich likes salty foods and sweet foods equally, but not together. He’ll put sugar or salt on any food he doesnt like until said sugar or salt drowns out the taste he doesnt like.
2. Mich doesn’t have a cellphone. He probably asked for a smartphone when he was 11, then found out they can be used to track you while reading about cellphones on the computer, and then never wanted one again. His father offered to buy him a flip-phone for his birthday but that never ended up happening. (Oneiromon is supposed to take place before 99% of 13 year olds had cellphones but then I realized the year i had in mind [2013] was when most 13 year olds already had cellphones [because thats when i got my cellphone and i remember being fashionably out of style for not having one yet]. So the latest Oneiromon takes place would be 2013, probably earlier but I’m not sure. Side note, but Sarah actually owns a flip-phone, but not a smartphone. Nobody in her family owns a smartphone. Mich’s dad owns a smartphone [probably just like a Blackberry tho], but not his mom.)
3. Despite most certainly not growing up in the 90s, cartoon-wise, he’s a huge 90s cartoon junkie and also loves classical Disney, Warner Bros, and Hanna-Barbera cartoons. He’s absolutely that guy who says modern cartoons aren’t half as good as old cartoons (which I mean….is he wrong //sHOT). He probably watched a few early 2000s action cartoons when he was younger but most of what he’s watched are the comedies of the 90s. He doesn’t think Avatar is worth watching. The bastard.
4. Related to point 3, he has absolutely gotten into fights with people on the internet about how good old cartoons are compared to new cartoons. He’s probably gotten into multiple fights with Sarah about it.
5. He doesn’t like anime either, hence the main reason why Sarah gets into fights with him (well about animation anyways). “What do you mean you’ve never seen naruto???” “it doesnt interest me, it looks stupid” “shut up you HEATHEN”
6. Mich is afraid of commitment - not specifically romantic commitment, but that too. Although friendly, he has a hard time opening up to people.
7. Mich hasn’t even thought about ever finding a partner; or he has, but only for very briefly before he immediately stops and says “nope dont want that”. He’s still bi, but he just hasn’t thought about it enough to ever label himself that. He’s also never had feelings like that for anyone and doesn’t know what it’s like. Which I mean is fine, he’s only 13, I’m just saying.
8. LETS GO BACK TO SOMETHING FUN Mich doesn’t like modern cartoons, but he still enjoys modern animated Disney movies. He misses traditional animation, but he doesnt mind the CGI. He’s a hardcore both oldschool and new disney fan, however his favorite disney period would probably be the renaissance of the 90s. He’ll watch other animated movies too but Disney’s are always his favorite.
9. Mich doesn’t own a DS or a 3DS or even a gameboy, he owns a playstation (playstation 1). When he was young he wanted to play Pokemon, but he didnt have a DS or gameboy, so his dad got him “basically Pokemon for the playstation” aka Digimon World. When Mich told Sarah 1. that hes never played pokemon and 2. that he’s played the digimon games but has no interest in the anime, she gasped loudly and wouldn’t respond to his texts for like a week. (Fun fact: this little fact about his backstory is based on something that happened to me when I was young! I believe I got both Digimon World and Digimon Rumble Arena the same year for my birthday [and the same year i got a DS so i could play pokemon] but I know I played Digimon Rumble Arena first and more religiously over the years) Other games he’s played include Spyro, Final Fantasy, various shitty Disney games, and a game that he only has vague memories of that he later found out was Bugs Bunny: Lost in Time (spyro and the bugs bunny game also being games I played as a kid)
10. If Sarah doesn’t eventually convert Mich to modern cartoons by 2017 in their world, Mich would be extremely skeptical of the Ducktales reboot when it was announced, but would begrudgingly check out the first episode and then immediately fall in love. He’d have a few nitpicks with how smooth the animation is (bc i have a few nitpicks with that) but overall he would love it and that would probably be his gateway into checking out other modern cartoons, namely modern disney cartoons (I dont think he’d like SU even if he checked it out, but he’d probably be able to get behind SVTFOE and Gravity Falls)
Thanks for the ask!!
