august Q+A
Added 2020-08-01 22:37:11 +0000 UTCUPDATE: going to be starting to answer questions over the course of the rest of today!
although i've realized the theme of making them all jokes under the guise of meaningfulness assumed i bullshitted other meaningful answers in the canon instead of having proof, and also assumed that i'm a funny person :P
this is going to be the post where i answer questions. you can post them here early and i will answer them on the 15th, or you can wait.
you can also send them to me privately or like, send an ask or e-mail with a throwaway account if you want it anonymous, i can post it here as a comment.
you can ask friends for questions and post them for them if you think they'd be interested or whatever, i'm not gonna be super strict about it.
i will be editing this post on the 15th, so you will get an extra notification when the answering is actually happening.
chances are the majority of these will be text answers, but i might respond with drawings.
i'm sure anyone who's interested has already seen the theme, but in case you haven't, this month is stupid question, smart answer. feel free to ask obvious or simple questions about the art or writing.
i will be labeling the nature of answers in brackets in any response with some simple tags to test it out:
-"soft canon" means it may or may not be canon. it can be listed as canon, but if anything in the hard canon contradicts it, it's not canon. it's like, recessive gene canon.
-"hard canon" means it's definitely always established canon unless retconned.
-"personal" will mean it's my opinion/interpretation rather than actual canon (usually meant to facilitate thought about the text without changing it, if that makes sense).
-"soft pass" will mean i don't want to answer the question but will explain why.
-"hard pass" will mean i don't want to answer the question, period!
-and "idiot sandwich" is going to mean i'm saying something that is very likely to cause a contradiction in canon because of an internal disagreement.
these tags don't have to mean anything to you, but i don't want to confuse people.
you can also suggest future themes for Q+A sessions or ask for clarification in the comments here and i will answer those before the 15th. see you then.

[hard canon] felix's alter, vincent, is the writer, and he is a pantser through and through. i think he lives for that "eureka moment" rush. he's pretty critical of other alters' writing because he thinks it reflects poorly on him. when it's good writing, it means he's not uniquely able to write and threatens his place in the system, and when it's bad, it'll make him look like a bad writer to everyone else. this is also partially because he finds it fun to pick at things to improve them, which comes off as criticism when it's not your own writing -- hence why he's a pantser.

2020-08-16 00:30:38 +0000 UTCIs Felix a planner or a panster writer? and how do they handle finding writing from other alters? (sorry if I got this in late)
