Interview meme questions
1. Leave me a comment saying, "Interview me."
2. I will respond by asking you five questions. I get to pick the questions.
3. You will post the answers to the questions (and the questions themselves) on your blog or journal.
4. You will include this explanation and an offer to interview someone else in the same post.
5.When others comment asking to be interviewed, you will ask them five questions. And thus the endless cycle of the meme goes on and on and on and on...
I can't ask you stuff right now, sorry. After finals I'll get to it.

nyaabo's questions:
1. Favorite CCS card!?
...One? I like the elementals, although especially The Watery and The Firey because they're like pissed off fairies. I like The Light and The Dark, but they have so many fans it turns me off. For the anime-only, I loved The Create.
2. How'd you come up with your username?
I actually didn't :P Ame warashi is a character from XXXHOLiC, the rain spirit (see icon). I wanted to rename a while ago, so I thought of cool fandom names, and I remembered her. She's my kind of character. Besides, my nickname is written with the kanji of rain and means drizzle. It was adequate.
3. Favorite Mushishi story?
That's a mean question D: I love several. Like the traveling swamp, the guy who chased rainbows, the bamboo family, the one with the boy who slept through winters, the painter who moved to the city, the blind girl, Tanyuu's story... but I like most of them.
4. If you were to be turned into a stuffed animal, what kind would you want to be?
The first gut reaction is being my penguin plushie. He's all velveteen and soft :3
5. Would you rather have a mohawk, pompadour, or afro?
O_o Honestly, none. They all need awful amounts of hair gel, and I loathe using that shit. I'm too low maintenance when it comes to hair. I procrastinate over combing. Besides, they'd look awful on me.

Nowharuhara's:
1. Favorite CLAMP series?
XXXHOLiC, actually XD I've been here in the fandom right since the series started in Japan. I've been here before the crossovers. I've been here before there was buttsecks subfandom. I'm like the fandom's cockroach. But regardless of the fandom, I love the series' premise and the paranormality of it all.
I'm pretty attached to CCS because it was my first CLAMP fandom, and I'm still writing for it. But since it's in HOLiCverse, sometimes I can get away with it and say they're the same canon :D ILU crossover precanon metastories~
2. What kind of music do you like?
I guess you could say I'm into rock, because that's what I listen to the most. I don't like a particular subgenre of it: a little bit of everything, including oldies and new stuff. I like some pop, but not the moronic mainstream kind. Still, I probably like loose songs in other genres, unless I really loathe it.
I listen more to music in English. Most music in Spanish, my native language, is boring pop and/or Latin-styled (I hate salsa and reggaeton), do it's not my kind of thing.
3. Describe yourself with images. Not feelings. ("I'm like a feather in the wind" instead of "I'm a pretty energetic person")
...
...
I'm the old, smelly Reader's Digest magazine you found at a waiting room, and you stole it when nobody else was looking, because you wanted to keep reading that article about the man who survived an attack of club-wielding baby seals at the Arctic, and try the lemon cake recipe. LET'S GET DANGEROUS! XD
.......................... ¬¬U
(sorry for the bad metaphor, and for the childhood impulse to quote Darkwing Duck)
How about "I'm like a flipping coin, as uncertain about the statistic outcome as Schrodinger's cat"?
4. Are you fond of sweets?
Sometimes. One day I'm in the mood for chocolates or cookies, the next I want chips or Doritos or anything salty. I don't like cake that much, though.
5. What's something that'll make you smile like a loon?
Buying a new manga of a series I adore, or watching/reading/hearing something funny, or a package of something I imported or bought online arriving, or raw scans of mangas (especially FMA) getting out. Some cute animals. Dunno, lots of weird stuff. I think this shows I have no life.

ETA: In one of those TDT channels, Clan TVE, they're broadcasting dubbed Doctor Who! O_O And it's the first episode of the first season! Nine!!

As for music I think it is interesting that you don't like Spanish music. I am a big fan of it. Although I don't really follow anything new anymore. My favorite type of music is classic rock though.
no subject
Yeah, how curious XD But I know a lot of people who can't listen to music in Spanish. I've liked some bands or singers in the past, but the majority aren't my style.
Are you also replying for the interview meme, BTW?
no subject
If you want to ask me stuff then sure. :)

Ever heard any Argentinian rock? I don't know if you'd like it, but at least it's different.

... I wouldn't be able to choose a favorite Mushishi story either if someone asked me. :D;;
Awww, you escaped the mohawk, pomp, 'fro question. D:
no subject
I only know Soda Stereo because really, who doesn't. I didn't like them when I was a teen except for the song "Música Ligera", but probably I should listen to them again now that my tastes are different -I mean, it was around the time I only listened to Backstreet Boys and dance/trance music, so... yeah. I should give a lot of genres a second chance.
Except reggaeton.no subject
maidassistant until the price is paid. Also, it has a lot of awesome and/or cute spirits and creatures, just like Okami. They might have hot springs owned by sparrows, but this fandom has an oden stand ran by a family of kitsune (http://www.kimihiro.net/images/gal/CLAMP_and_manga/BW_splash_illustrations/bw07-4.jpg)! And speaking of foxes, there's this badass one (http://www.kimihiro.net/images/gal/CLAMP_and_manga/color_illustrations/il41.jpg). And more (http://www.kimihiro.net/creatures.php)!Also, Yuuko was Clow Reed's friend :D (what? I think that's cool)
... I wouldn't be able to choose a favorite Mushishi story either if someone asked me. :D;;
And you still asked me? Meanie ;___;
It's not escaping, it's aversion to hair products. But since you're curious, maybe the afro would look the least worse on me. However, since I'm tiny I'd look like a match or something.
no subject
lol what? Really? Yuuko was Clow's friend? Waooo, so many crossovers.
Kufufu, yes. I'm just glad no one asked me.. I'd probably list off all of the stories. :D
Afro match!

Oh, XXXHOLiC is crossover gallore! Hell, it was created to be a crossover, and it's
soldlinked with Tsubasa quite a few times, but it's also happening in the same universe than CCS, Gohou Drug, and Kobato, between others. But the Clow thing was major to me because I'm his fangirl and all. And there's this precanon storybook complementing TRC/HOLiC, "Soel to Larg: Mokona Modoki no Bouken", that happens while Clow was still alive. Nobodybut us Clow/Yuuko shippers or folks who just likes the kawaiicares a lot about them, though, because it's mascot-oriented, pre-canon, and lacks gay. But I think it's awesome.And this illustration (http://www.kimihiro.net/images/gal/CLAMP_and_manga/color_illustrations/il14.jpg) is just pretty.
no subject
Hahahaha, I see. I might have to check out that book too (for Mokona :DD).
That illustration is awesome...! I love the art style in XXXHOLiC.
