some characters types i love
- demyx from kingdom hearts (lazy, lovable, a lil incompetent, the best)
- izaya orihara from durarara!!
- zack fair from FFVII (dude goes from idealistic puppy to jaded optimist, and it's SO GOOD)

i genuinely don't think anyone can pull something like the nier games, but i do love stories that try to answer the philosophical questions of what it means to be human and why do we do what we do, so if your story tackles smth like this from a fresh pov, then lemme at it.

- "i have a ghost friend" a la yugioh with characters like yami yuugi or astral, or even like hikaru no go where the protag gets wrapped up in a new world and gains a new skill and passion
- stuff that could be comp'd to "megaman: nt warrior" with personal AI avatars

some random things i just want to see because they'd bring me joy
- a character who has a pet hamster (i have two and they're SO CUTE)
- ragtag team-up that goes from reluctant to "i would die for any of you" in friendship/romance intensity

in vein with AC, some things that have done this include the anime movie Your Name, which I enjoyed immensely and cry every time

some video game comps i would LOVE to see include
- final fantasy (especially XII, the aesthetic of kingdoms and sky pirates and a partnership like balthier and fran's? swoon)
- assassin's creed, where the past and present have intertwining plots that are relevant to each other

if you've been here for a while or i'm new to your feed: i accept queries from bipoc writers only, so this is just an evergreen thing on my wishlist. diversity in this industry is incredibly important to me, so if your project even tangentially covers smth here: query me <3

if there are any bipoc writers can comp their novel to a final fantasy game, i'm in. please query me. like, just so everyone is aware.
and with that, I will start a new #MSWL thread!

#MSWL Still (forever) seeking voicey female-fronted thrillers. Less domestic/psych suspense fiction (unless they've got a killer Gone Girl-style twist), more heists, fights, action/adventure goodness. Would love a female Reacher equivalent. Humor also much appreciated.

“I love stories involving parentified children. I also love reading about characters who grow up navigating two opposite worlds (class, culture, etc.)” @ceciliaclyra #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Don't know why but winter makes me want to read all the thrillers. #MSWL
