which would make the best partner?
actually you know what? let’s make the perfect partner step by step. I’m going to have a series of polls and we’ll see what Fedi thinks would make the best possible partner
I’m not going to do gender this time (unless y’all want me to!) so imagine that this hypothetical partner is whatever gender would make them best for your specific taste
so to start with, which of these categories should they fall into?
after this poll is over, I’ll make a follow-up poll to narrow things down more, and I’ll keep going until we’ve made a whole character
@kasdeya it seems I'm not just pan romantic but also pan speciest or whatever. Don't care about the gender or species of my partner.
@ninafelwitch interesting! that is definitely fair. to be honest I am almost entirely interested in different species for lewd reasons - because of the different abilities that different species have. although I also think it could be interesting to cuddle with a cold creature like a vampire
wow so it looks like “demon, devil, succubus, incubus, etc.” won by just one vote! I guess y’all are into infernal beings, and I don’t blame you 💙
let’s narrow it down more, though. just like before, imagine that this being is whatever gender you’d prefer. which of these would make the best partner?
after this we’ll do personality, and then maybe appearance
∆-44203.1 'Carbon'
@kasdeya hmm 
query[0]: would a {daemon conformant to the witch-doll abi} also count as {demon, devil, succubus, incubus, etc.}? 
query[1]: if so, which category in the poll does unit 17921 belong to?
@1 omgg I did a double-take lol I was like “yayy 17921 boosted my poll!” I love this costume idea
but anyway, hmmm… is 17921 demon-like, or just daemon-like? it does have a spaded tail IIRC. I might be wrong but I think that it is probably much more AI than it is demon, so I would put it in the “artificial (android, robot, replicant, space station AI, cyborg, etc.)” category instead from what I understand
∆-44203.1 'Carbon'
@kasdeya aha! that makes sense to bot. thank you for the explanation! 
aa sorry all! I completely forgot about this poll somehow, but was reminded of it because of my lewd polls, so I’m continuing this series too 💙
so it looks like “demon of lust” narrowly won by just two votes, after fallen angel. amazing choice~ but what kind of personality should this lust-demon have?
the way this poll works is that the 3 highest-voted personality traits will be chosen. if a trait is tied for 3rd then we’ll have a tie-breaker poll later on
as always, please vote to make your ideal partner, whatever that would look like
also, I might have a poll after these where y’all can vote on what kind of abilities this partner has as a concubus. that sounds fun 💙 hmm and maybe interests/talents too?
okay I really want to take this series in a lewd direction, but I’m going to be good and get all of the {SFW but possibly kinky} options out of the way first so that everyone can participate. but after I’ve gotten the SFW options done then I’m definitely going to start doing lewd options too - like exactly what kind of abilities this lust demon has~
anyway, so far we have a succubus/incubus/concubus who is confident and assertive, possessive, but also soft and comforting. I could see a few different directions that those personality traits could be taken, and they’re all very good 💕
next we’re going to be deciding their 3 main interests. these are things that they’re passionate and knowledgeable about, and very skilled at too. just like before, the 3 top-voted options win. I’m not going to be adding kinky options this time, but that might be a later poll
oops I kept the “kinky and D/s options” text from last time even though I explicitly decided that there’s nothing kinky about this part of the poll :/
I guess it works though because I still mentioned some kink-adjacent personality traits from last time
@kasdeya unless there's a reversal with the next votes, unfortunately doesn't seem like the concubus will be a cook T.T
I think a partner that likes to cook is very cool... I place great emphasis on cooking in my relations.
@shijikori I’m ngl I was lowkey hoping that cook would be one of the choices. I think it’s so nice in a partner - especially if they cook for you as a romantic gesture, or teach you how to cook, or learn how to make your favorite food. idk it makes me melt
@kasdeya you're almost describing me. I think cooking is love for self and those with whom you share. I care a good bit about the freshness of my ingredients and I care a fair bit about cooking as well as I can and sharing the love for cooking with my loved ones.
hm so this concubus is assertive, confident, and possessive. but they’re also soft and comforting. their 3 biggest interests and 3 best non-lewd skills are programming, hardware tinkering, and Linux administration (including self-hosting). I love where this character is going, and they remind me of a few folks that I could name, too 💙
do y’all have any suggestions for non-lewd polls that I could do, or should we get into the lewd things next?
oh, wait! maybe I’ll do a poll for how they dress. like punk vs. gothic lolita vs. brightly-colored and casual, etc. and maybe body type too? I’m not sure - what do y’all think? I’m generally not too interested in a character’s appearance but this could be interesting too
okay I’ve decided. the next thing y’all are going to vote on is this character’s overall vibe and presentation. we’ve already done personality - how they are internally - but this is how they look and act from the outside. these would be the first things you might think about them when meeting them for the first time - influenced by factors like what they wear and how they act
because what I want to do is get enough info that I can write a proper description of them. I want to combine everything into one whole picture instead of repeating the traits that y’all have picked. and I realized that in order to do that I definitely need to know what vibe to go for
anyway, once I’m done with that, then we can ask the lewd questions (which is what I’m really looking forward to~)
anyway as before, the 3 top-voted choices win, though in this case I might look at some of the other top choices too, to get an even better idea of what kind of person this is
@kasdeya... what happens if second place has a three way tie lol, do we have four options picked?
so it looks like teasing/playful was the clear winner, but there’s actually a 3-way tie for second and third place between regal, casual, and witchy
so here’s a tiebreaker poll to see which two survive. the highest voted wins
