Lol I'm trying to imagine my GGaD! OCs reactions to Alma cursing in songs (ya know, since he's very fatherly and doesn't curse around people lol)
Alois: Grew up with Alma, isn't surprised, and literally helps Alma with song creation (mostly instruments and video/audio editing) Probably curses more than Alma tbh lol
Silence: Literally choked on soda and their eyes got real wide. "He... he's able... to curse...??? I didn't know he could... do that..." They most definitely looked and were really shocked at first. Also they would be @Alma like "bUT YOU DON'T LET ME CURSE AROUND ECHO??!!! THIS ISN'T FAIR."
Francis: Tbh he probably wouldn't catch the cursing at first because his mind naturally blocks it (ya know, because he hangs around Silence a lot). He probably wouldn't be bothered by it because he listens to metal lol and a lot more worst things that have heavier cursing than what Alma would use
Malaika: Doesn't really care lol. She might raise her eyebrows in surprise at first but then just shrug lol
Echo: Will probably never listen to those songs because Alma, Malaika lol

Lol I find it funny that Alma refuses to believe he could ever be a good father when he has a whole group of basically children (technically teens I guess lol) following him around that nearly call him "Dad" on accident because he is a parent figure to them lol
Also Echo has so many "older siblings" (Si, Fren, Malaika, Apollo. Alois kinda but because Alma is the parent figure my mind is like "Then Alois is the uncle" lol idk yeet) lol, I'm planning on giving her yet another possibly
The family keeps getting bigger and bigger lol I love it.
It's kinda weird tho because mentally Echo is, like, six at best due to the mix of trauma and memory loss (with some more mature, teenage mentality once in a while but it's not often) but physically Echo is, iirc, sixteen with extreme babyface (or it was fifteen, idk my own characters lol). And if Echo wasn't turned into a deity/didn't have that "first death but not really" experience, she would be in her twenties and would be older than everyone except Alma and Alois (because they are thousands of years old but stopped aging in their early twenties)
It sorta freaks me out sometimes thinking about that lol

Lol almost every GGaD!OC can play instruments and read music while Echo and Francis are like *EXTREME KAZOO NOISE*

Curse warning in the song lol
My interpretation of the song reminds me of both Silence and Echo lol

I was going to put "Imagine Francis and Silence reading to children" but then I remembered that Silence can't read so imagine Francis reading to a bunch of children and Silence lol
Lol actually Francis probably does read to Silence a lot, both in HPA and GGaD

I'm thinking about Francis and his fear of dying
Iirc what happens after death for everyone's OCs depend on the RPer, right? I can't remember or if there has been a decided thing that happens (lol if there is a decided thing then idk how Alois would reincarnate after death)
If it's not the latter then I have an idea for what would happen to Francis (and most of my OCs) after death than involves Francis' father lol (because Francis is the son of a death god lol)
Which is also kinda ironic because Francis is scared of death, but the irony is why I gave him that fear. He's also scared of being alone/his friends dying, but I think tbh his fears are kinda natural for most beings that are able to die
Offline
It's also an ironic fear because Francis forgets to actually do the things that help him live. I guess he technically won't die from starvation or lack of sleep or anything like that (he can really only die from someone murdering him or him murdering himself) but tbh he needs to do normal human things so his life isn't miserable lol
Like, he can still feel hunger pangs and he can go insane from the lack of sleep
Offline
Lol Francis actually has a lot of abilities that can probs make him OP if he wasn't so darn sweet lol. He also has a lot of powers relating to death and mental torment
He's able to smell "death" on people. Like, if someone forgot to eat he can smell a bitter trace of "death by starvation". The longer the person goes on without eating, the stronger and worse the smell gets. Even healthy people have a small smell of death on them (since people technically are always "dying" after the age of 25 iirc because of cells and stuff, I can't remember the whole fact lol don't come at me and make me feel stupid lol). A sick person has a nauseating smell on them, the worse the sickness the more nauseous the smell is
I would like to think Echo smells strongly of death because she "almost" died once and actually did die once and the smell lingers on her (but it's starting to fade to nothing). I like to think that gods have no smell unless they have died before.
Alma and Alois both have a fading smell of death (Alois' being stronger) because they both have reincarnated souls (and Alois has been through multiple lives while Alma is on his second with no memory of his original. Also in Alma's first life he was a forest druid lol, which is why he's so connected to nature in this life)
Francis is able to see mental illnesses as demons (and he can actually see when demons are possessing people). He can't exorcise actual demons (yet) though
Francis is able to possess other people if he wanted but doesn't because he thinks that's a mean thing to do to someone, especially without consent
Francis can make someone's sanity level to drop to force them to hallucinate (or do thing that is big no) if he wanted to oof
But he also has angelic abilities that I haven't really thought about lol because his main powers currently focus on death
Offline
Lol Francis can smell bad vibes in the air

When writing a backstory for a transgender character, would you use the pronouns they used back then or the pronouns they use now because I'm writing HPA!Silence's backstory but back when they were younger they didn't realize they were nonbinary but idk if it would be disrespectful to use their old pronouns for their backstory and then switch pronouns when they realize they're nonbinary
Help

Still need help with that BUT the idea that GGaD!Silence smells like cologne and pine tree is funny to me for some reason but that would actually probs smell really good tbh imo, but I also like those two types of smell so yea idk
Alma most definitely smells like roses lol
Alois would probs smell like books and maybe ink.
Malaika smells probs like, idk, lavender or candy or cinnamon or something sweet idk maybe she smells like cake mmm
Echo smells very lightly like roses
Francis smells like strawberries lol idk, I think he would smell like strawberries or maybe like a flower or something
Offline
I feel like when Silence was younger they would use too much Axe Body Spray lol and just douse themself in it
HWHFJWKRB LUMI WOULD DEFINITELY SMELL LIKE AXE BODY SPRAY BECAUSE HE DOESN'T KNOW WHEN ENOUGH IS ENOUGH AND PROBABLY GOES THROUGH CANS REALLY QUICKLY LOL

Lol the fact that Francis' voice is really deep would probs throw off a bunch of people lol I wonder what Dion's and Kaori's inner reaction to his deep voice would be lol. Or maybe they're both used to random things that they didn't notice or really care lol. Idk, Francis doesn't look like his voice is like, Ryoma Hoshi deep but IT IS lol
Also spoilers for Danganronpa V3 In thos video but here are some of Ryoma's voice files for reference of how deep Francey's voice would be
I have said before that he has four octaves for singing range, that's still stands lol. It goes from one range lower than his normal range, his normal range octave, and two octaves higher. I hope that makes sense lol. Maybe I should record some piano octaves being played to demonstrate this better
I would like to imagine that Silence's voice is naturally gritty and raspy, but could make it clear if they wanted. I think they would use a more feminine voice than masculine, but they probs switch between both fem and masc. I don't really have any voices to reference other than ones from songs and how I think Silence would sound when singing (I like to imagine the singer from the song "Body" by Mother Mother) so yea. I imagine their (more natural) voice is constantly yelling somewhat and that they can't really tell when they're being loud, maybe perhaps scratchy from yelling. Of course, since they can imitate people and different tones and sounds and ect, their range of voice types often can fluctuate if they're not controlling it lol or if they really don't care. So their vocal octave range is indefinite
I'm not sure about how Alma's natural voice would sound like. He would definitely have a more melodious voice, probably something more on the deeper side but not like Francis', Alois', or Apollo's voices. His way of speaking would probs be very clear and his tone would definitely be expressive and perhaps dramatic lol (because he's a dramatic boi). His voice is very clear and clean sounding, and I like to think that when he's rushing or stressed he sings to himself in a very operatic voice of what he needs to do and it's really funny. Of course, he can do a lot of stuff with his voice when it comes to singing, like false chords, vocal fry, screaming, ect and he can do a lot of different styles of singing/music. He has about 8 octaves of voice (maybe more). Idk if I will be able to do this on my piano completely as my keyboard doesn't have the full piano range lol, and idk if a piano itself would have his range.
Echo has a very "Small Child" voice. Something like Chihiro Fujisaki or Ash_On_LoL
(Warning for cursing and DR V3 spoilers)
She probs has three octaves, her normal range and two above that range. I imagine her voice being very quiet and soft, but at the same time maybe with a bit of rasp? Idk yet tbh about her voice. Idk how expressive she would be with tone and stuff. Definitely not dramatic or exaggerated like Alma's And Si's voices

Francis' range (normal and higher) on piano:
Silence's "range":
Silence's natural talking range (for reals this time lol):
Alma's talking range:
Echo's range (I don't think I hit her highest note, oof blame my small keyboard):
Yeet

Idk if the lowest octave I did for Francis was low enough rip, I'm music deaf

I relistened to the recording and maybe it is???? Idk lmao

I like to think that even though they can shapeshift into different forms, they still retain the same amount of strength. Like, if they shifted into a body that has a lot of muscles, their strength won't grow, and if they shifted into a frail-looking body, they won't lose strength

Francis, as stated some time ago, is hella fine at flirting if he really wanted to. As well, he is very pretty. So, if he was more like Apollo, Francis would probs use his power of charm and flirting to persuade people and get out of trouble lol. But, as he is now, he probs wouldn't do that lol
I like to imagine he would actually save his flirting skills for someone he actually is romantically interested in lol
Offline
I fear the day that Francis falls in love because that means I would have to search up ways to flirt and how to write flirting to stay with canon lol
The only person I can write flirting for is Alma because he has the same reaction as what I would imagine myself having: being a flustered mess
Offline
I say we would have the same reaction because one time a girl called me "sweetheart" in a platonic, tender way and I forgot how to speak for a good five minutes. I can't imagine myself being able to think straight if someone flirted with me or if I tried to flirt with someone lol. I would die. And Alma dies when a lady shows romantic interest in him so-
Offline
Idk if I posted this before or not but sometimes I'll think of romantic scenes and then right after think "Alma would die from blushing in this situation" wbfjkwjr
I kinda want to write a scene with him and his ex-fianceé before she died lol, maybe even right his ex-fianceé's death scene because he was there to witness it uwu

You may be thinking "Echo, your OCs already have so much sadness! There's no more possible ways to make them sadder!" And really, you are incorrect. Sometimes, ya just gotta think, "What is something I would never want to happen to me or a loved one" and then you intensify it and then add it to your OCs. No one is safe in my grasp. Not even Alma. He even gets the sadness in his past (:
Offline
It's funny of how bad I am at making dialogue that the characteristics of my OCs can actually be "Monologues and rambles a lot due to missing social cues" but tbh IRL I miss social cues on a daily basis which has led to me rambling nonsense so maybe it's not bad writing but me putting too much of myself into my OCs

Other HPA!Teachers: *asks simple questions of how everyone else is going to run their class*
HPA!Apollo, crying: "Y e s?"
Offline
HPA!Apollo is so funny to me because he has the energy of a tired college student who has no idea of what he is doing. He is the embodiment of that one meme that is like "I'M LATE FOR SCHOOL! Oh, wait, I'm an adult... i'M THE TEACHER-"
HPA!Calix (around 28 or 29 iirc) has Old Man vibes lol, but he's really old compared to GGaD!HDK (who is 19 iirc). Lol he's like "I've been through this before, I have seen so much that I probably won't be able to be surprised."
Offline
Since (both GGaD and HPA) Calix has the fear of seeing his own reflection due to either or both trauma and very low self-esteem/self loathing, the inside of his mask is not made of anything reflective unlike the visible part of his mask (which is metallic and shiny). It's probably some type of comfortable and easy-to-clean material
I'd imagine that both versions clean their face a lot tho
I think they both would have only one mirror in their homes. Calix only uses it for fixing his hair and outfit/when he has his mask on. His whole reflection hatred is mainly centered on his face
