▶ ENABLE ME Character: Hong Meiling Canon: Touhou Project
So this is Meiling, Touhou's resident Chinese Girl and gate guard of the Scarlet Devil herself. If you happen to already know about Sakuya Izayoi, well Meiling is one of her coworkers and if you happen to already know about Remilia Scarlet that is who she serves! (In canon but that loyalty is going to remain should she end up in Prisma)
To many, Meiling has gained the reputation of a slacker. But I'm here to tell you that that's... mostly fanon, at least wrt my portrayal. She still tends to fall asleep while on duty which causes it's own set of problems, but it's not most of the time and she's highly competent at what she does even if she can tend to be a little lax. Given that it's Touhou, rather than fighting intruders like usual because of the Spell Card System most of the time she's just driving them off with a colorful display of qi-based "bullets" and Tai Chi Chuan. She also tends to the mansion's garden, seeing it as a work of passion rather than obligation.
Now to delve into a bit of headcanon I personally have! First off, because we don't know what youkai Meiling specifically is I tend to go with the headcanon that she's a dragon youkai due to numerous aspects such as her name (if I ever had to specify I'd say she's a Hong), color scheme, and the hat she wears. Second is due to her canonical pride toward the country of China I tend to headcanon that she originally comes from ancient China in the Outside World (our world in relation to Touhou's Gensokyo) so expect her to get extremely prideful over her heritage.
Oh, and she's also loud. Really loud. She's very energetic and prideful to the point of arrogance, both personality traits that are fairly stereotypical of Chinese characters in Japanese media. She will try her hardest to remain composed and professional once she's realized Remilia is here but don't expect it to last too long. She also takes a great deal of pride in her martial arts abilities, so any other characters that practice it can either learn from her or teach her. (Looking at you, Assassin)
With those being said, would any of you be interested in plotting with a Meiling/want to see her? I'm deffo on the lookout for future plans involving more straight laced characters to act as the straight men to Meiling's funny man, other goofy characters to make Sakuya's life a living hell pal around with, some negative CR (especially if it gets dramatic), and perhaps even some shippy/smutty stuff. (Though only F/F as I play Meiling as a lesbiab)
Also as a side comment for anyone that does happen to be interested: how mandatory would using Plurk be? I've been considering it but I'm not sure how often it's used for communication between gamemates.
