Yo everyone. So you probably haven't seen me around on this magazine before which is obviously because I'm new here. Hi everyone I'm reiion. Well that's not my real name so you guys can either call me that or Anna. I don't really mind. Anyway for my first ever interview I have decided to interview (drumroll)… Black-Talia-Rose who also happens to be the other interviewer.
(Ok so pretty much after our conversation regarding time zones and whatnot)
KEY:
R: Me
B: Talia
R: Ok So I really enjoyed reading The Only One so far because I really liked the plot and also your OC Haruka. Lol I'm still waiting for the next update *glares.* Anyway, where did you get the inspiration for this story?
B: Em, okay, really sorry about the updates. I have plans, including posting the next chapter before Christmas. But, yeah, inspiration. Well I guess it all kind of stemmed from my love of Akashi. I think that he's a really interesting character and I was pondering on what kind of person would make him fall in love. I guessed that he'd need someone who he could respect (because she actually defies him) and who could see through him (because she knows that he's too smart to actually seriously harm her). So, Haruka was born. And then I kind of thought, well, it's no fun to have a perfect OC. So she became a girl obsessed with scheduling (there's a reason behind this) who is kind of bullied at school, and who has a few family issues (one of which I'm hoping to introduce in the next chapter). I went through a lot of plot ideas, most of which I scrapped because they were too cliché. And, um, yeah...my inspiration was, I suppose, Akashi's character followed by Haruka's character and then also my own experience of bullying and the wish I have that I could have faced it with the same kind of sass as Haruka.
R: Yeah I agree that's it’s not always fun to have a perfect OC. A lot of Akashi fanfics normally have an OC who is quite scared of him but what really stood out to me that Haruka wasn't scared to defy him. Lol and the fact that it was an Akashi story. But Aomine will always be bae to me *laughs.* Question 2: What would you say that your main writing style would be? For example do you feel more comfortable writing about actions scenes, comedy, romance or etc?
B: Ahomine? Bae? Ah, yeah, I can kind of see it. Fufufu. But, yeah, I'm a romance girl! Haha. I don't mind writing action, but it doesn't tend to work out quite so badass on paper as it does in my head! I always add a bit of comedy, but I absolutely utterly adore romance. Which is strange because I'm usually really detached about things. I'm just a silly romantic at heart, I guess.
R: YEs! Aomine is Bae! Don't question! Honestly though, I find it half impossible to write romance so I normally write action. So moving away from this... How did you first discover wattpad?
B: I just write a bit of everything, but there must always be romance in it. LOL. My friend introduced me to Wattpad! She gave the name to me and then I just started from there. I have to blame her. She got me utterly hooked on it. Absolutely, utterly hooked. I blame her for everything ^.^ I still love her though. She introduced me to this place!
R: I agree! Wattpad is just the best place ever. So last few questions. *looks down at non-existent sheet of paper* What kind of anime do you like watching?
B: A little bit of everything! Sports anime is pretty cool. Romance, obviously, and also action. I also like the darker ones. Akame ga Kill and Attack on Titan, anyone? Um...but I think that if I tallied up all the anime I'm watching at the moment, it's about a third populated by sports anime! <3 Yeah...that's it, I guess.
R: Did you cry at the most recent Akame ga Kill episode? Oops spoilers...
But I think that's a little off track here lol...
B: Was that the one where *whispers* little sister was killed? No, I don't cry at anime. Usually. Okay, maybe a little. But I didn't cry then, 'cause I was in the middle of talking to someone special >///<
Yeah...just a little off track.
R: Not that one >.< But yeah little sister was killed too but... ASDFGHJKL JUST GO WATCH THE LATEST EPISODE. GUARANTEED THAT THERE WILL BE TEARS kinda... kinda? So I have two questions left. Ready? If you were in the KnB world, what would you do?
B: I can't. Crunchyroll hates me because I don't give it my precious money...but I will! It'll be available by Sunday!
Oooh! I love asking this question and now I get to answer it! Fufufu. Okay, let's see, I'd become a student at Rakuzan. I'd find a way to get close to Akashi (duh) and maybe join the student council. I'd loyally go to every basketball match too. Let's see...I'd visit Seirin for fun and become best friends with Riko. I'd insult Kagami, cuddle Kuroko, antagonise Midorima, give Murasakibara sugar-free sweets, admire Aomine while insulting him at the same time, make puns with Izuki, show Hyuga how badass people with glasses are, be very wary of Kise, befriend Takao, befriend Momoi, and make Akashi fall in love with me before rejecting him in front of everyone! (And then taking that back quickly, because he is perfect) What? It's anime...
R: Watch it on gogoanime! That's where I watch all my anime and the uploads are so up to date. And wow that's an extremely detailed response... But ok.... And finally (drumroll)....... What would you like to say to all your followers and readers on wattpad?
B: Oh! That's a difficult one. *clears throat unnecessarily* I'd like to thank my readers and followers for giving me a chance! Everyone who gives me support has my tremendous gratitude. If not for you, I would have given up long ago. I would like to especially thank @Levee_Ayzis (Ay-chan, my dearest doppie) who has given me so much support and just generally been a great friend, almost better than I can get in real life. I'm becoming a sentimental wreck thinking about those lovely people who voted for my writing. *sniffs* Advice to you: don't write a message for your followers while listening to a melancholy song. But, I guess, I wanted to express my gratitude. And I think that 2015 will have to have more updates...
R: I hope it does have more updates haha. Well thank you for taking the time to respond to my annoyingness. It must be getting pretty late for you (wow almost 12 I think) but thank you for still going with it. Everybody say bye to Talia (?) (Can I call you that?)
B: It will! (Hopefully) It's fine. I enjoyed it. Yeah, it's pretty late but I'm all good. Of course you can call me Talia! Anyone can call me that! It's my name ^.^
R: Ok :3
