Alright! It's finally time to answer your questions that were hopefully submitted.
Perdita: Jeez, it's about time. I got so bored of waiting.
Yukari: Now now dear, giving people a week to submit questions is a reasonable amount of time.
Perdita: Fair enough, but now that it's time, I can finally interact with our readers!
Calm down Perdita, haha! Now let's see...oh dear...
Yukari: Hmm? What seems to be the issue Scigic?
Well...there's only one question for each of us.
Perdita:...You're telling me...we waited...a whole week just to answer ONE QUESTION EACH!
Yep. So...after that what do you guys wanna do? Play Uno?
Perdita: K, I'm down.
Yukari: Same, might as well do something fun to run down the clock.
True. So, first question is for me, from our good buddy, 01-Vember-01. It reads, "Casual greetings, fine friend. I request an answer to how you came up with Perdita and the whole story."
How I came up with Perdita? Hmm, you know how authors take elements from their own life and use it to write characters. That's what I did for Perdita. His name, as you know, isn't originally Perdita and I purposely left it out so that it had that "Male Reader X Story" vibe that a lot of readers are into. His name is the Latin word meaning "Lost" on account of him being lost in worlds that are not his own, as well as a way to hide his identity from Yukari early on. As for the rest of the story, I did some research on certain topics like science and magic and took some inspiration from other fanfics.
Yukari: Huh? So that's why your name is like that. I always wondered why you kept calling yourself lost. It's a nice name that has a nice ring to it, though it does hurt that you were trying to avoid me.
Perdita: Well, considering you're the most powerful youkai, and the fact I got my shoulder bitten into by Remia on my first day there, sufficed to say, I believe my actions were justified.
Yukari: Fwfwfw ̴ I'm just teasing you. If it wasn't for your caution, we probably either wouldn't have met, or wouldn't have fallen in love.
Perdita: I wouldn't want to imagine a scenario like that.
Yukari: Aww Perdita...
Perdita: Yukari...
Ahem! We still have questions and a game of Uno to play. You can do your couples stuff on your personal time.
Perdita: Ughh! Fiiiiiine!
Yukari: *giggles* Alright, completely understandable. So, what's the next question?
The next question is also from 01-Vember-01. It reads, "Yukari, what do you think when Apex's being around?"
Yukari: I believe you mean what do I think about Apex being around? He himself is not bad, it's just those annoying spirits that inhabit his body are a problem.
Perdita: Yeah, I know what you mean. But he's a good employee, nonetheless.
Yukari: Agreed, however, he likes to talk about stories like an old grandpa, probably because he sees himself as the oldest, however he is mistaken about being the oldest AMONGUS!
Perdita: What do you mean? Isn't he thousands of years old?
Yukari: Yes, but there are going to be someone with us soon that is over five hundred thousand years old, while Apex is only clocking in at a few thousand.
