MUN QUESTIONS. Q1 : if you could write your character your way in their own movie , what would it be called , what style would it be filmed in , and what would it be about ? A1 : shot on film to give it an aged look, with a very washed out and muted color palette. directed in the style of stephan spielberg or christopher nolan. gives screentime to emphasize lancelot’s formative years in avalon and on campaign in continental europe, but the main focus is on lancelot’s role within the camelot romance dodecahedron and how his actions influenced the rise and fall of camelot. titled “galahad of the lake” in order to bring home that this is a story ultimately about how lancelot became the man he is in legend. Q2 : what would their soundtrack / score sound like ? A2 : composed by theophany and rozen. the soundtrack would be very much akin to theophany’s time’s end, especially time’s end: part ii. his character suite would be especially similar to healing termina. Q3 : why did you start writing this character ? A3 : hhh, about four months? i’ve loved lancelot as a character for a very long time, but never really decided to sit down and write about him until recently. Q4 : what first attracted you to this character ? A4: i’ve loved lancelot for as long as i’ve loved arthurian lore, so since i was like, six or seven years old. he’s just a Cool Dude. lots of emotional depth, too, which is something i’ve always found to make me love a character. Q5 : describe the biggest thing you dislike about your muse. A5 : fuck, man, i don’t dislike anything about him. i adore him. he’s fuckin perfect, okay? definitely not a perfect person, definitely very flawed, but as a character, that makes him perfect for me to write. in terms of ease of writing, i wouldn’t change a goddamn thing. Q6 : what do you have in common with your muse ? A6 : we’re both incredibly handsome, and we both really like horses. Q7 : how does your muse feel about you ? A7 : apathetic. Q8 : what characters does your muse have interesting interactions with ? A8 : everyone. just straight up everyone. first of all he himself is just interesting in any interactions because he’s snarky and violent and charming all in one, and you never know which side of him you’re going to get, so it’s always a good time. second of all, it’s just fun to let him loose with all the characters he can find? it’s a good time. Q9 : what gives you inspiration to write your muse ? A9 : i make my autoplay what it is for a reason, yo. it’s because that’s the shit that gets me goin’ with this character. Q10 : how long did this take you to complete ? A10 : one hour and twenty six minutes.
