Circe for all oc asks
@hughstheforcelou
1: List five basic facts about your OC. - she’s bisexual. - she’s not only the hufflepuff duelling champion, she’s the best student dueller at hogwarts. - she’s very confident and particularly girly, caring about her hair a lot and liking lip gloss. - she has a scar on her left palm from a broken tea cup. - she had a kind of aversion to meat, bordering on being vegetarian, but then became a werewolf and suddenly found herself craving meat. she’s forever mildly grossed out by this craving.
2: Post a line of dialogue from your OC. “Remus. He attacked me. It was like he didn’t even recognise me.” - from my technically unnamed circe fic (maybe called ‘second brightest’?) that i started this may as a werewolf au fic before deciding werewolf!circe was canon.
3: Post a snippet from your writing that describes your OC. She stands at the top of the stairs. She can hear music already playing down in the hall, the yule ball in full swing. With a breath, she takes her first steps down the stairs, driftingly, almost floating. Her dress skirt swirls around her long legs. It’s a slow draw from foot to face as she walks down. There’s barely a peak of her golden shoes beneath the long hem of her equally golden dress, twisting deeper gold patterns in the fabric. It’s sleek and fitted to her petite form. There’s golden bracelets hanging from her bird-bone fragile wrists, a familiar silver daisy ring glint on her left pinkie. The thin straps of her dress do nothing to hide the pink-white bite scar over her collarbone. Finally, she reaches the bottom of the stairs. Her dark hair curls around her face, bouncing lightly as her head turns, her gaze flickering across the hall until finally, her pale green eyes land on George Weasley. - a yule ball snippet.
4: Post a snippet from your writing in which another OC describes your OC. Leopoldine was no friend of the hufflepuff, but she had to admit, she had some respect for one Circe Shafiq. At least someone else was putting Pansy in her place. It’d look bad coming from a fellow slytherin, better to leave it to the hufflepuff. Despite herself, Leo finds her gaze turning up and down over the girl. She had nothing on Hermione, but the girl was still rather pretty. Pretty in a yellow-clad, full-of-herself, high-maintenance kind of way from her obviously well-kept curly hair and glossy lips and neatly painted nails. A scathing comment escapes the ‘puff’s lips and Leo has to hide her laugh behind a cough when Draco and his cronies look her way. - technically leopoldine and circe aren’t in the same story, but she is my other hp oc.
5: Describe your OC’s physical appearance. okay so circe is a pretty good mix between her father and mother. she has her mother’s features with her long nose and full brows and delicate hands, she’s paler than darya but not as pale as sirius; she also has her father’s very curly dark hair. she caught the recessive genes in terms of eyes, having neither her mother’s deep brown eyes or her father’s grey eyes; she has very pale green eyes. she has a bit of a fang-y look to her teeth at certain angles. circe is also pretty short and petite, she only stands at about 5′5. she’s has a bit of a monobrow and also noticeable hair on her arms, legs, and belly.
6: Describe your OC’s love life. circe has had her crushes here and there, but at the beginning and end of it all she was in love with george weasley and no other matched up. she had itty-bitty minor crushes on dean thomas, hermione granger, cedric diggory, a handful of the durmstrang and beauxbatons students, fleur delacour, victor krum, charlie weasley, a handful of her fellow hufflepuffs, and daphne greengrass.
7: Describe your OC’s fashion sense. in my head, i want to say circe is fashionable because her mother was a fashionable ravenclaw babe and sirius had his Looks, but my heart says she’s an oversized overalls covering sweaters or tees type of girl. she likes oversized sweaters, anything plaid or tartan, anything yellow, anything floral. she has a lot of jewellery, but most commonly she’ll be wearing an evil eye necklace and a silver daisy ring on her left pinkie.
8: Describe one of your OC’s bad habits. she hides what she would call her ‘ugly’ emotions. she doesn’t care about seeing other people show the same emotions but she hides her own. she hides her sadness, hides when she’s hurt, hides anything that would give people an idea that she’s not ‘all put together’. and then when people (rightly) accuse her of hiding her emotions, she gets frustrated with them about it and continue to shut them out unless they continue to press her about it.
9: Your OC is having a nightmare. What is it? depending on the year, her nightmares involve: her mother’s death, her father’s death, being attacked by remus as a werewolf, attacking her friends (george especially) while as a werewolf, george dying, bugs.
10: You are conducting a ritual. What 5 items would you need to summon your OC? figs, any item of yellow clothing but especially yellow tartan, a daisy ring, honey in a small glass bottle, lavender bath salts.
11: What does your OC want for their birthday? she has little want for most things and it genuinely happy with whatever gifts she gets, but ever since her mother’s death, all she’s wanted is her mother’s bee sting cake.
12: What does your OC give another OC for their birthday? she usually mulls over gifts for weeks in advance. in the end it comes down to book she thinks they’ll like, cool mugs, or food.
13: Describe your OC’s living situation. she lived with her mother until darya died, then she was left to live at hogwarts because her aunt couldn’t take her in and her grandmother died shortly after darya. she spent time at the burrow for a few years at the twins’ insistence, and then at 12 grimmauld place after being expelled from hogwarts by umbridge. after the war, she moved in permanently with the weasley’s until she was old enough to live alone, which she did for a few years before she and george started living together.
14: What is one of your OC’s secrets? circe worries about people saying they love her because she has an irrational idea that when people love her (and when she truly loves people), they’ll die. she gets this idea from her mother, her grandmother, her father, remus, and then fred all dying. some rational part of her knows it’s not because of her, but that irrational part wins out far more often.
15: Your OC is given the chance to go back in time. Where do they go and what do they do? she’d go back and try to stop people’s deaths. she might even give up going back and saving her father if it meant she could go back to the war and stop remus, tonks, and fred from dying.
16: If your OC could have any superpower, which would it be and why? part of her wants her animagus ability back (since she lost it when becoming a werewolf). alternatively, she’d love to be able to breathe underwater. or to maybe glow just a little bit.
17: How does your OC do during the zombie apocalypse? i actually have an au about this in a non-magical zombie apocalypse way. anyway, it’s her, the golden trio, ginny, and the twins. circe has a bow and is great for taking out zombies from far away, she doesn’t particularly like guns but does also have a knife for close-up kills. she’s a runner for collecting food and stuff they need because she’s tiny and can easily get into places while also being very quiet about it.
18: What is your OC’s dream job? i think maybe she’d be an activist, likely for werewolf rights. she’d maybe even be a writer, giving actual true details about werewolves to dispel all the lies that have been written about them and maybe telling werewolf’s experiences. i can also imagine her as a charms teacher at hogwarts.
19: Your OC’s life is a musical. What’s the title of their big show-stopping song? either ‘second best’ in which she’s talking about being second after her father, second to hermione in school, not living up to her mother’s reputation, etc. or ‘not just a pretty girl’ talking about all her other qualities when people put her down to being ‘just pretty’.
20: Post a picture or gif that describes your OC.

Things about my Dovahkiins
A recent convo with @mrninjapineapple reminded me of this unfinished thing.
I started this questionnaire around March 28th, 2015 and it’s been sitting in my sta.sh unfinished for so long that I forgot who tagged me to do this.
Looking back, it’s quite a silly list of questions, and I originally wanted to scrap the whole thing, but I liked some of my answers, so here it is. You can compare the personalities of my different Dragonborns by their answers.
[I’m planning to make a more serious questionnaire for the characters involved in our collection of stories (The Age of Restoration). I’ll also plan to post some screenshots of them in a later post.]
Onto the questionnaire with 40 silly questions!
1. What is your name? Z: Zinnia(h Fire-Hearth) Y: Yrgrod Ragvirsson C: Casts-First-Asks-Second N: Nicholaus (the Goldsmith) S: Shurag gra-Burz
2. Do you know why you were named that? Z: No. [After a horse called Cinnia, because I thought it sounded unique.] Y: I was named after an old hero and I inherited my fathers family name too. [It was formed from parts of my name, "rág" & "Vir"] C: Yes, I named myself. [And it sounded cool!] N: No, I was too little to ask it by the time and later I was already used to it. [Because he was created on 6th of December, the day of Saint Nicholas (Mikulás in our country)] S: I don't really care about it, it's just a name... [it was formed from a part of my name, "s Virág" sounding "shwirag", with different spelling] 3. Are you single or taken? Z: Taken. Y: Taken. C: Single? I'm unique! N: Was taken. S: Single. 4. Have any abilities or powers? Z: I'm the Dragonborn and a werewolf and I have an ability called Ancestor's wrath Y: I'm the Dragonborn and a werewolf. C: I'm a Volkihar vampire N: Not that I know of, other than still being alive. S: I can go berserk answering such questions. 5. Stop being a Mary-Sue! Z: I do have a bunch of titles, but this one, I never heard of... Y: Isn't that a female name? C: Why should I? N: Silly... S: You mean Shu, right? 6. What's your eye color? Z: Pitch black. Y: Somewhere between blue and green. C: White with a red pupil. Originally my pupil was light blue. N: Green as an emerald. S: It's red. The other one's blind. 7. How about hair color? Z: It's almost black. Y: Some kind of blonde. C: Hair? Phew, filthy thing! I have beautiful horns! N: It was brownish, now it's grey. S: Brown. 8. Have you any family members? Z: A husband and adopted daughters. My parents are dead. Y: I have a wife and adopted kids. My sister and her son died during his birth. C: No, and I'm happy about it. N: I had. S: I adopted a daughter, but I haven't found true love yet. 9. Oh? How about pets? Z: I love horses and I have four: Arvak, Blaze, Frost and Shadowmere. My daughter's pet fox, Vix sometimes lets me cuddle her. Y: I'm a dog man. C: I don't know the Dead Thrall perk yet. Pity. N: I like animals, but I don't want to attach anyone again. S: I have a good horse. I don't need useless critters around me. 10. That's cool, I guess. Now tell me about something you don't like. Z: The Blades. Y: Unnecessary friction. C: Werewolves, Vigilants of Stendarr and the Silver Hand. N: Boots. S: Dragons. 11. Do you have any activities/hobbies that you like to do? Z: Reading. I have a library of around three hundred books. Y: I like to sing (though some say that I shouldn't) and listen to the bards. C: I tend to drink guard's blood in Riften. Broad daylight. N: I like to craft jewellery. S: Exploring the vast wilderness of Skyrim. 12. Have you ever hurt anyone in any way before? Z: Pretty much. Bandits, creatures, some people. But I only regret some of them. Y: Yes, and he deserved it. He was the reason why my sister died. C: Most possible ways, yes. N: I did, but I wish I shouldn't have. I'm not afraid to protect myself, though. S: I gladly smash in anyone's faces, who deserves it. 13. Ever... killed anyone before? Z: I did. Most time I followed orders, but sometimes for my own good. Y: To name the most important: the usurper Ulfric Stormcloak. C: With pleasure. Also, I need hearts and flesh for crafting. N: Same as Q12. S: It was me or them. No question. 14. What kind of animal are you? Z: I'm a werewolf. And the Dragonborn. Y: I'm a werewolf. C: I'm beastfolk, not animal. I should shed your blood for this question. N: I always considered myself a small and peaceful creature, therefore a squirrel, I guess? S: Orcs are no animals. Oh, you mean metaphorically? I'm a sabrecat. 15. Name your worst habits? Z: Hoarding stuff. Especially ingredients and books. Y: I tend to be hot headed and sometimes I regret things. C: In others eyes, killing for my own amusement is one. N: I tend to be melancholic. S: Smashing in faces. 16. Do you look up to anyone at all? Z: Talos. Y: Sometimes, but they mostly prove they were unworthy to it. Sad. C: No. N: Quite a number of people, yes. S: My mother, Shuzhra was the greatest personality ever. I miss her. 17. Are you gay, straight, or bisexual? Z: Straight. Y: Straight. C: I'm not picky. N: I always thought I was straight, but now I'm not that sure... S: Straight-in-your-face, what kind of unashamed question is this? 18. Do you go to school? Z: No, but I learn new tricks on a weekly basis! Y: No, I'm old enough. C: I never needed school to achieve my goals... N: No, but you are never too old to learn! S: I don't need that, unless it's about potions or fighting! 19. Ever wanna marry and have kids one day? Z: Already married, first child is on his way! Y: I already am, and that second... would be good. C: I don't think so. No kids. Never. N: I had a beautiful wife and daughter, but they both died long ago. Now I'm searching for my grandson! S: Maybe... maybe not. 20. Do you have fangirls/fanboys? Z: I don't know. Maybe. [She’s just modest, she has some.] Y: I... have? C: Of course. N: If I have, that's cool. S: I don't need such admiration. 21. What are you most afraid of? Z: That something happens with my family or with those who I care about. Y: Having to fight those who I called my friends once. C: The Sun. Hiss. N: Bonding. S: That I hurt someone who’s not deserving. 22. What do you usually wear? Z: Light armor crafted by myself and a hood. Y: Heavy armor without helmet, or a helmet which doesn't cover my face. I need my foes to know who bested them. C: Light armor with dark tones, hood, sabatoons, veil or scarf and a mask to hide my teeth. N: Plain clothing. I was dressed in burlap clothing with bare feet before the Sparrows made it cool. No, I'm not a religious fanatic. Does it mean I'm a hipster? S: Blades armor with a Greybeard cloak, to shorten the cooldown of my Shouts when I kill dragons. 23. What's one food that tempts you? Z: Most kind of sweets. Y: Milk. C: Hehe. Blood, my dear. N: Elves ear. My favourite spice. S: Dried venison. 24. Am I annoying you? Z: No, these questions are interesting. I love to explore myself by thinking about stuff I usually don't. Y: Not really. C: I don't know yet. N: No. S: A bit. But I manage it. 25. Well, it's still not over! Z: Good! Y: Alright. C: Go on! N: Alright. S: Oh. 26. What class are you? Low class, middle class, high class. Z: Started as middle class, now high class. Y: High class from born. C: Low class to high class in two years. N: Middle class. S: Orcs are orcs, not classy people. 27. How many friends do you have? Z: I don’t like to count, but many. Some are close, the most not much. Kharjo, J’zargo, Brelyna, Aela, Farkas, Lucan, Belethor, Urag, Lydia, Sasha (mod) and my Housecarls. Oh and Paarthurnax. [Non canonically she likes Aronansa and Jenna Sajpa] Y: Who can be sure about that anymore? The Companions, especially after purging our beast blood together. C: Anum-La, The Swamp Knight [from the interesting NPC mod] N: Some people here or there, but I don’t make want to make new friends, I’m too old. S: A few. Why? 28. What are your thoughts on pie? Z: Delicious! Y: I hope it’s a meat pie. C: Bleh. N: I don’t mind one coming my way sometimes. S: Uh, they’re food? 29. If you could meet anyone, living or dead, who would it be? Z: Talos! Or my father. Y: My beautiful sister Hroda. C: My enemies, so I can flay them! N: My grandson, Mercer. You heard about him? S: Right now? 30. Favourite drink? Z: Red wine and clean water. Y: Milk! C: Fresh blood. N: Mead. S: Magicka potions. They are good for thirst. 31. What's your favourite place? Z: Hm. Skyrim, as a whole, but I like Heljarchen because that where we live now. Y: Dragonsreach is nice. C: Lakeview, my place. N: Solstheim volcanic side. S: The Reach. 32. Are you interested in anyone? Z: My husband, Balimund! Y: My wife, Zinnia [copy of Zinnia as a mod] C: Not now. N: Don’t tell him but I fancy Tolfdir. S: Not right now. 33. How tall are you?
The game gives the height of the character compared to the average. Different races and sexes have different base values. (e.g. Nord males are 1,03, while Khajiit women are 0,95) I headcanonned the average to be 175 cm (5’74). If you think the average Skyrim player character has a different height value, it modifies my calculation (also, sorry, my brain works in centimeters ))
Z: 175 cm (1) Y: 187 cm (1,071=1,04*1,03) C: 175 cm (1) N: 175 cm (1) S: I'm tall enough, thanks! [It’s a bit sensitive topic for her. She’s 164 cm (0,94=0,9x1,045)] 34. Would you rather swim in a lake or in an ocean? Z: A lake. Salty water is not my type. Y: Both are fine. C: I’d rather not, but if I need; the Ocean. N: How about neither? S: Swimming in heavy armor is not good idea. A brook, maybe? 35. What's your type? Z: Bulky nords with beard! Y: My wife. C: Zero negative, but I can eat any blood type. N: Um, people like Tolfdir? S: Someone who’s brave! 36. Any fetishes? Z: Why would I tell you? Y: No. C: I might have some but it’s none of your business. N: None. S: No.
37. Seme or uke?
[I googled what these mean and not going to answer, because my dragonborns don’t know about such things.] 38. Camping or indoors? Z: Indoors. Y: Both. C: Outside. Hunting. N: Indoors. S: Camping? Adventuring! 39. Are you still wanting this quiz to end? Z: I could do other things, yes. Y: It’s indifferent to me. C: Yes. N: If there’s more question, ask. S: Kind of. 40. Well, it's over! Now tag five people to do this.
*Inaudible mumbling, noises of chairs scratching the floor, bootsteps as they leave to their realities.*
[I’m not tagging, I was tagged more two years ago!]

The first rule of the ever-evolving 11-question meme is that you must always post the rules! The second rule is you must answer the questions given by the person who tagged you. The third rule is you must then write 11 questions of your own and tag 11 people (or however many, you do you, bb) to answer them!
(If it is your first time at the ever-evolving 11-question meme, you do not have to fight though.)
I was tagged by @silveredglass and @devinesis, who are both amazing like whoa. Please go check them out right this instant, you will not regret it! (Very long) Answers below the cut! My questions at the very, very bottom... just keep scrolling, just keep scrolling...
Answers to @silveredglass's questions:
1. Have you ever had something happen to yourself (not as a baby) that you didn’t remember until someone else told you about it?
Oh my goodness, all the time? I could truly be a living, breathing version of that psychology experiment given how often people remind me of things I have done but have no memory of them. A good example is that I do not remember reading Hamlet in high school, but bestfran, who was in the same class as me, swears up and down that we did. And not only that we did, but that it was like... a thing. Like parts were given out. People got into it. It's possible that costumes were worn? And I had no memory of this until she started talking about it. I very seriously thought she was lying to me, that's how much I had forgotten this happened. It was only after she started talking about it and telling me that it definitely happened that I was like "oh shit, you are right... you are so right." (Or she has some weird thing about wanting to implant false memories about Hamlet, which I guess I would also be okay with.)
2. Best food combination that shouldn’t work but does that you have ‘invented’?
This is actually really tough. I have made some pretty odd cupcakes in my day, but the one that is most often requested is my pear, feta and hefeweizen cupcake, which I am told is a pretty strange combination? But I guess not that strange because people want them all the time?
3. Do you like live theatre? Art exhibits? If so tell me about something you’ve seen that made an impact.
Very much so! We have a free museum here that houses many of my most favorite surrealist paintings, but it is also associated with the Rothko chapel, which is one of the most peaceful places I think I have ever been? The picture does not do those monolithic paintings justice, either... they are easily 3 or 4 times my height and truly overpowering to see up close. They look just all black, but they are filled with so much movement. Rothko is certainly a difficult painter to capture in photography. I could (and have) stared at them, lost in the shades and hidden colors, for moments that seemed very long. It's just silent in a loud way. 10/10, do recommend.
4. Do you have an accessory or jewellery or makeup that you wear almost always?
I have a silver ring with a little cross on it that my mother gave me, I think right before I started college? I wear it on my left ring finger, but it is neither a ~*purity ring*~ (because I am not religious and also purity rings are creepy) nor is it meant to signal any sort of message... it's just the most comfortable finger. Fun story. Not long after HGD and I started dating, he had my ring in his mouth (I don't know?) and bit (yes, with his teeth) it out of shape. He didn't think it was real silver? I don't know what he was thinking. But I was so angry. We took it to the place where it is from and they were not sure they would be able to reshape it because it looked like HGD had fucking bitten a stress fracture into my ring?! But it was fine (HGD got so lucky). So now it has little tiny teeth indents, which is dumb but also kind of wonderful. HGD isn't allowed to touch the ring anymore, though.
5. What is your strongest olfactory memory?
Any time I smell Chrome (the terrible, cheap cologne that every teenage boy seems to own?), I am transported back to being 16 years old in the early evening heat of August, and a boy is handing me his Pink Floyd shirt that is many sizes too big and saying "I heard a rumor that you liked me?" and kissing me on the cheek.
6. What album that has been released in the past two years should I go buy?
Okay. If I had to pick just one album, and it doesn't even matter if you like rap, it would be DAMN. by Kendrick Lamar. It is undeniable how good it is. But I am bad at picking one, so I might also recommend World Eater by Blanck Mass, Humanz by Gorillaz, or Dirty Projectors by (you guessed it) Dirty Projectors!
7. When you were a kid did you have a favourite make believe game you’d play? Or dress up you’d wear?
When I was a little girl, my cousins and I all very much liked to play with my grandfather's wife's square dancing skirts. We would just twirl around in them for hours, pretending that we were all beautiful dancers!
8. Tell me something that made you feel proper chuffed with yourself. In a nice quietly contented way.
Oh, any time I corral my team into agreement, or really even any time I get them to go *a* direction, I feel very quietly content with myself! Or! And god, this is so dumb, but any time that I put a lot of things in my queue for this blog so that it doesn't seem like I'm dead for days on end!
9. IS MISSING. Is this one of those things where I am supposed to notice? I will take this chance to tell you all that you should go read Silv's first lines meme answer, then.
10. Have you ever had a scary or very odd animal encounter?
Well... this is more about an animal encounter that I didn't have, but when I was a kid, my family stayed the night in Yosemite National Park in a canvas tent (which was surprisingly nice... or 10-year-old me had lower standards than current me, maybe). When you park, you watch this TERRIFYING video of bears just RIPPING CARS APART if they smell food in your car so you have to throw away EVERYTHING that might attract bears. And I mean everything, even gum wrappers. So you can imagine what they would do if they smelled food inside your tent, right? I slept surprisingly well that night for being terrified that I might be mauled to death in my sleep by a hungry bear, though.
11. Share a link to a fic or fan art that you love?
Oh... oh, so tough. Wildfire by abbycadabra makes me feel things everytime I read it. And I really, really love atalienart's "Spell Series"!
Answers to @devinesis's questions:
1. What’s something in this world that you just don’t understand and wish you could?
I very sincerely wish that I could understand the conservative mindset of putting businesses or profits or churches before actual human lives. I mean I wish I could understand it in the way that they must feel it, because I jokingly say that Ted Cruz is obviously the Zodiac Killer in a Lizard Person's body (*cough* he is *cough*), but I can also (begrudingly) admit that he is maybe also a human bean (even if a v bad one)... and how does he, or any person that voted for him, or any person that votes along beside him in Congress... well, how do they justify their own seeming lack of humanity? It's a mystery to me.
2. What show or movie does everyone love and tell you to watch but you just hate no matter how many times you try?
I'm probably about to lose so many followers but THE HARRY POTTER MOVIES?!?! Like I disagree with nearly all of the casting, I will never forgive them for not making Harry's eyes fucking green, and even the movies that I watched... it felt like they glossed over all of the most magical parts?
They are irredeemable trash in my opinion and even though we got some cool actors out of it, I have no interest in even trying to love them. AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON SIRIUS BLACK, OKAY.
3. The first book you ever really loved? (If it’s HP, cool, but you have to say something else, too. LOL)
Oh. Anything by Francesca lia Block... I devoured her books when I was younger. I wanted so desperately to be one of those manic pixie shangri-la fairy girls that she wrote about. Or To Kill A Mockingbird because... well, Atticus.
4. If you were going to be in a relationship (platonic or sexual) for the rest of your life with a character from the Harry Potter universe, who would you choose?
Sorry, Draco, but I'm going with Hermione Granger. Helpful for studying? Check. Sometimes problematic but woke af? Check (better than most other characters in the book). Will be down to sometimes do girly things? Check. Is good at keeses because most girls are? Check. Likes to know things? Check. Is a badass? Check. Knows muggle AND magical shit? Check. Is def a ride or die, and down for adventuring without being a baby (looking at you, Ron)? CHECK.
5. Your most hated book you were ever assigned to read in school?
Tess of the D'Ubervilles. *rolls eyes* She should have just killed everyone and rolled out of there with two middle fingers up in the air instead of complaining about everything for the whole book (I realize this is not a very nuanced look at this novel, but lord, did I hate this when I had to read it in school... we also had some nightmare-level assignments related to this book, which is probably part of the reason I hated it so much).
6. If you had a personal uniform like a cartoon character, what would it be?
All black everything (which is not far off from what I usually wear now), except, like a cartoon character, everything would fit perfectly and never fade and always look cool and I would also never have to actually put on eyeliner, I would just rock the perfect cat-eye all the time.
7. Where is your “happy place”?
Any place where I can get a (good) vanilla latte or listen to music very loud and just dance around like an idiot.
8. Favorite form of exercise?
I really enjoy yoga, but I certainly don't do it often enough. I also kind of like the monotony of elliptical machines?
9. If you had a crush when you were, like, 12–14—looking back, is it embarrassing, or do you nod at your younger self in approval?
Mostly I am embarrassed but I did crush hard for a few hours on a total stranger at a battle of the bands when I was probably 14. He had long black hair and weird tall shoes and was defintely wearing eyeliner and looked like the closest thing I might ever see to Davey Havok in person and I just wanted to talk to him because he was so pretty (but also clearly much older than me). I still approve of that one, 4-hour crush on a dreamy goth stranger. Other than that, 12-14 year old me definitely had trash taste.
10. What, for you, are the most hated and most enjoyable tasks of adulthood?
Most hated? Having to ever wake up early and be somewhere on time while knowing that if I'm late I have no one to blame but myself? Most enjoyable: Being able to decide when I want to do things, if at all (within reason).
11. What small-talk question do you most hate answering from strangers at a party?
In high school it was, "where do you want to go to college" because I did not know where I wanted to go to college, or even if I wanted to go to college. In college it was "what's your major?" as if there are not a million other things you could say to a perfect stranger that would be more interesting. In grad school it was "oh, so why did you want to study this"... we all have the same answer, guys. We aren't here for the money. We're all here because we want to help. Come on. Currently, it's "oh, what do you do?" because my job is sort of difficult to explain and I always get "the look" of like "oh, that sounds like it must be really sad" and I know it's not necessarily what I should be doing, but it's what I'm doing right now, damn it. Also because we could talk about literally anything else, why does it always have to be work?
Okay... so I'm just going to do 22 questions and you can pick your favorite 11 to answer (if you decide you want to do this).
1. What are some of your favorite song lyrics and why do you love them so much? 2. If you could live in a fictional reality from a novel (or show, or whatever), where would you live? (Hard mode: you can't choose Hogwarts, or anything from the HP universe... womp womp) 3. What will you FIGHT a person about (in the internet sense of the word)(or also in the literal sense of the word)? 4. What was your first fandom and how did you find yourself there? 5. Not a question but post a picture of whatever you want. 6. What is something not enough people understand and you want to explain to me right now? 7. What is your favorite thing that you have ever studied (doesn't have to be in school, or even studied formally)? 8. You are suddenly allowed to keep one real, wild animal as a pet and it's not going to kill you or hurt you, it's just going to be sweet and awesome... what animal do you choose? 9. Least favorite activity that you have grown to bedrudingly accept as necessary (and maybe even a little fun)? 10. Give past-you a cryptic message - no context, just the message: 11. Who is your problematic fave and why do you love them so much? 12. What is the last thing that someone radically changed your mind about? How did they do it? 13. You are trapped on a desert island. There is no escape. No one is coming to save you. You are going to die. What 3 things do you bring with you so that you can die happy? 14. What 3 dumb as hell things make you stupidly, infectiously happy? 15. What do you create? 16. You've gone down the YouTube k-hole and have been binge watching nonsense for the past 2 hours. Where did you start? 17. If you could have a magical tattoo a la moving tattoos in HP fanon, that would appear when you wanted it and disappear when you didn't, what would it be of? 18. What stereotype actually pretty accurately describes you? 19. You have a kid in your possession, that does not belong to you, that you get return at the end of the day. What do you teach that child that is going to make their parents hate you? 20. What is the last fic you read that you would recommend everyone read? 21. What do you love about yourself? 22. Send a message using only emojis. Let your readers guess what it means!
