*rubs hands* I should catch up with my darlings. Probably missing a few, but here goes.
Would your character rather live alone for the rest of their lives, but have the safety of their loved ones guaranteed, or live among their loved ones for ten years before they all die?
Tai: Didn’t you ask this question?
Me: Yes, but I want you guys to answer it.
Tai: What’s wrong with you?
Me: Just answer the question.
Dari: Well, I guess I’d want them to be safe.
Grace: I’d probably say the same.
Gerik: *scowling* I already lost them.
Tai: Yeah. . . my whole family’s gone.
Kiet: Same.
Kedori: Same.
Me: Wow. . . I really did mess your lives up, didn’t I?
Everyone: Yeah.Would your character rather be a sidekick or a love interest in someone else’s story (someone else being a person of their choice)?
Kiet: *glancing at Grace and blushing* Um. . .
Grace: *blushing when she catches Kiet’s look and not understanding why she is* Um. . .
Tai: *snorting* Wow, you two are just—
Dari: Tai, let it go. *whispers* If you say something, you might discourage it.
Kedori: Well. . . I don’t really know. I never really envisioned anyone LIKING me, mostly because not many people seem to just plain like me in the first place.
Me: *hugs him* I do! And so do the others! *glares at Gerik* Well, MOST of the others. . .
Gerik: *shrugs and ignores me* Neither sounds particularly great. I guess love interest.
Tai: *making a Daniel DeGraaf pose* Love interest. Shouldn’t be too hard.
Dari: *rolls eyes* Sure.Would your character rather never be able to touch another person or cry uncontrollably for three hours every day?
Grace: *stiffens* Never touch another person.
Tai: Yeah. . .
Dari: Same, probably.
Kedori: One or the other? Oh, um. . . could the three hours be while I’m asleep or something?
Kiet: Those are the choices? Well. . . I guess I’ll go with Kedori.
Gerik: *snorts* Have fun crying your eyes out.
Me: Gerik!Would your character rather never have to eat again (and be nutritionally fine) or never need to breathe (but their heart keeps beating and all that)?
Tai: Some winters ARE pretty rough, food-wise. Not having to eat could be really helpful. I mean, as long as I still CAN eat. I having nothing against eating.
Me: Of course you don’t. You’re a teenage boy.
Dari: Same as Tai.
Kiet: *stares at the ground, deep in thought about the implications of each* *looks up* Never need to breathe.
Grace: I don’t particularly care. I guess not having to breathe could be convenient.
Kedori: I don’t know. Probably not having to eat.
Gerik: Not eat.Would your character rather, die a gruesome death, or watch their closest friend have an extreme death?
Everyone: WHAT’S THE MATTER WITH YOU?!?!
Me: *shrugs awkwardly* Don’t blame me! It was just on the list!
Tai: You still chose to ask it!
Gerik: All my friends from Heyari are already dead.
Dari: Don’t you have Haro, though?
Gerik: You think I’d call him a close friend?
Dari: Well, I guess not. *looks back at me* I’d hope that I would choose to die, if it ever came to it.
Tai: *glaring at me and stepping in front of Kiet* I’ll die.
Kedori: Same. I have few enough already.
Kiet: *glances at everyone with wide eyes* *swallows hard* I’d rather die.
Grace: *gives me a stony stare* Same.Would your character rather be a complete nobody, unable to ever become known, or super famous and unable to find anyone who hasn’t heard of them?
Grace: I mean, being that famous would get annoying fast.
Dari: Yeah.
Tai: *poses dramatically* The people already love me.
Dari: *rolls eyes*
Gerik: Why do I have to pick? *glares at me* Famous, I guess.
Kiet: If it means the people that already know me would forget me. . .
Grace: *glances at him*
Kiet: . . . then I’d want to be a nobody.
Grace: *raises eyebrows* Why?
Tai and Dari: *look at Kiet, then at Grace* Leave it alone.
Me: *hugs Kiet*
Kedori: I don’t really want to be THAT famous, but I’ve spent long enough being a nobody, too.
Me: *pulls him into the hug*New question: Would your character rather be able to visit a past version of themselves to prevent a mistake or visit a future version of themselves to get advice?
Hearts are like matter--they can be beaten down, torn, and burned, but they cannot be destroyed.
I can’t not do this one. 😂
Would your character rather shower in whipped cream or bathe in Jello?
Kerid: *is disturbed* “How exactly is the whipped cream supposed to come out of the shower head?”
Aaron: “This is the best question EVER. Can I have both? The whipped cream can just POUR INTO MY MOUTH.”
Talya: “Okay, I have to admit, standing under a shower of whipped cream would be awesome.”
Fredrick: “How about jello flavored whipped cream?”
Kori: (new charie) “That is STUPID. It defeats the purpose of a shower, not to mention it’s not even possible! Why am I even talking to such idiots?” *smacks*

an excellent representation of meWould your character rather be able to visit a past version of themselves to prevent a mistake or visit a future version of themselves to get advice?
Eina: *has been brought back to the thread by Kari after she calmed down but is still glowering* Past. But if anyone asks me what about I will punch them.
Me: Okayyyyy we shall move on now. Kari?
Kari: *stands there in stony silence with her arms crossed*
Me: You know what, we’ll come back to you. Keldan?
Keldan: *thinks* I’m not sure. If I could somehow save any of my family, then past. Otherwise, future.
Wisteria: Hm. Advice, probably.
Zerach: I’m not sure there’s a way to prevent some of the mistakes I’ve made, so also advice.
Me: Right, so back to Kari…
Kari: *has started glaring at some point during the conversation* What kind of question is this, anyway?
Me: Uh. Kari. This one really isn’t that… painful. Just answer.
Kari: *disappears into the rafters instead*
Me: *stares after her* Well. That happened. Anyway, have another new question, everybody!Would your character rather be stuck in a time loop for a month or stuck with their worst enemy for two weeks? (Note: They wouldn’t be able to kill each other if they were stuck with their enemy. Fight, yes, kill, no.)
Would your character rather, be really hot all the time, or really cold?
Dayton: *rolls her eyes* “Cold, I suppose.”Alan: “Yeah. That way, when we respond to fire, we won’t suffocate or overheat from wearing all the whatever hundred pounds of stuff every time.”
Dayton: *glares at him* “You only have to wear 56 pounds, Rookie.”
Alan: “Whatever. I still get hot.”
Jim: “Guess I’ll be cold.”
Megyn: *thinks for a moment* “Yeah, I suppose I’ll be cold too. I can easily bundle up or go snuggle my dog.”
Would your character rather hear elevator music every time they moved or see everything in black and white?
Dayton: *snorts in disgust* “STUPID!! I’m not answering this.”ME: Well, you’s cranky!! Go on Al.
Alan: “Uhh . . . The elevator music would drive me nuts after a while. I could never hear anybody. I’ll see black and white.”
Jim: *looks puzzled* “I guess I’ll see things in black and white too.”
Megyn: *nods* “Me too. I can remember what color everything is.”
Would your character rather be able to know when someone’s lying, or never be able to get fat?
Dayton: *snorts again* “I already know when someone is lying to me and I will never get fat. I work out.”
Alan: *stares at Dayton* “Are you Wonder Woman or something!? DUDE!”
*Dayton snorts and looks deliberately away from him.*
ME: Dayton, you sound like a bull or something. That’s rude to Alan. BE NICE.”
*Dayton ignores me*
Alan: “I don’t ever want to get fat. I wouldn’t be able to carry my 56 pounds of JUNK as well anymore.”
*Dayton gives him dark glare*
Jim: *thinks a minute* “I guess know when someone’s lying.”
Megyn: “Me too.”
Would your character rather, live how they’re currently living (in the various places they are in their WIP) or live the life they had before?
Dayton: *face darkens* I’ll have the life I have now. And don’t you dare ask me why!”
ME: *to Alan* CRAN-KY!!
Alan: *nods VERY solemnly, then winks at me* “I don’t know . . . the life I have now is fun. I think I’ll stay here.”
Jim: *face saddens. sighs* “I. . . I don’t know . . . ”
Megyn: *looks at the floor* “I-I’ll stay here. There’s a reason why I am here and I don’t want to leave the people here.”
Would your character rather be a complete nobody, unable to ever become known, or super famous and unable to find anyone who hasn’t heard of them?
Dayton: *frowns* “All those people knowing me would just be annoying. I’ll be a nobody.”
Alan: “I’ll be famous!”
Jim: “Nobody.”
Megyn: “I’d rather be a nobody. Being famous would not be good for me.”
Would your character rather be able to visit a past version of themselves to prevent a mistake or visit a future version of themselves to get advice?
Dayton: *snarls to herself* “I’ll do back and prevent a mistake.”
Alan: *grinning evilly* ” I would go forward and ask myself how to deal with certain people now that that’ll be nicer in the future!!”
Jim: *looks down for a moment, then lifts his head* “I’d go back.”
Megyn: *ponders a moment* “I. . . I don’t know. I’d actually like to do both, if I could. But I guess I’ll go back too.”
Would your character rather be stuck in a time loop for a month or stuck with their worst enemy for two weeks? (Note: They wouldn’t be able to kill each other if they were stuck with their enemy. Fight, yes, kill, no.)
Dayton: *grits her teeth* “Stick me in a stupid old time loop. I’d like to get away from him for a while!!”
Alan: *looks innocent* “What? You mean Jared?”
Dayton: *Growls and cringes*
ME: OK AL. Enough now.
Alan: “ok ok. Uhh . . . what is a time loop anyway?? Does that mean I go through the same day or month over and over again?” *thinks* “Then I guess I’ll have that, as long I can pick what time frame.”
Jim: *gazes steadily at the wall* “I’ll have a time loop too.”
Megyn: *pales a little* “I’d rather have the time loop. Two weeks with him-” *bites her lip*
Psalm 119:11
Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.Would your character rather be able to visit a past version of themselves to prevent a mistake or visit a future version of themselves to get advice?
Judah: I’d go back and visit a past version of myself. Then Claudia…
Frankie: Definitely, go back and fix a past mistake. *swallows hard* Definitely.
Kaz: I think…I’d get advice from my future self. If I knew how this would all play out…maybe I could make the right choice.
Lauren: I don’t know. I think…maybe I’d visit a future version of myself.
@sam-m @dakota @kari-karast @clevercraftsman @naiya-dyani @urwen-starial @kayla-skywriter @banana-peacock-warrior
Me: WOW!! I need to catch up. *Pounces on what’s left of my group of charries and discovers that Skye and Hector are missing* HEY!! Oh well, Skye’s probably running from the police again and Hector’s prolly been too long out of the woods.
I guess I’ll have to bring in some new charries
I’ll bring in three *drumroll please* everyone I would like you to meet Storme, Caden, and Carly
Carly: *breezes in and looks at everyone with a shy, yet care-free expression* *waves* Hi everybody! I can’t wait to get to know all of you.
Cade: *steps in after her and holds up his hand in a peace sign* Hey guys *holds the door for Storme*
Storme: *slips in quietly behind Cade and looks around* *eyes widen slightly* She nods at everyone and slips over beside Abner.
Me: Hiya!! How’s the hottest guy in the room?
Cade: *blushes slightly and pretends not to hear* *looks around the room*
Carly: *nudges Cade* (sweetly) I believe she’s talking to you!!!
Cade: Oh!! I’m doing pretty good.
Me: Well. . . there’s lots of questions to answer so just sit back ad try to relax!
Would your character rather hear elevator music every time they moved or see everything in black and white?
Carly: *giggles* that’s a strange question! Umm . . . Well I have to be able to see color. . . like the color of people’s eyes *glances at Cade*
Cade: *deliberately looks the other direction*
Carly: So I guess I’ll hear elevator music.
Cade: Yeah me too.
Storme: I- I don’t know. . . I think I’d rather see the world in black in white for a while. . . it might give me a new perspective on life.
Frances: I guess elevator music.
Judah: Yeah. that sounds fun!!
Abner: I’ll go with Storme. Besides, elevator music would draw too much attention.
Would your character rather be able to know when someone’s lying, or never be able to get fat?
Carly: Never be able to get fat!! It would be so awful to be fat!!
Cade: *looks at her out of the corner of his eye* *slowly raises an eyebrow* I’d rather be able to know when someone’s lying.
Carly: What was that look for?
Cade: Nothing.
Carly: (playfully impatient) What was it?!!
Cade: It’s just hard to imagine you fat. . . that’s all.
Carly: *blushes* I don’t know if that was a complement—or not— but thank you just the same.
Storme: *bites her lip* be able to know when someone’s lying!! I don’t care if I’m fat and ugly, it might save me a lot of trouble in life.
Francis: I’ll agree with Storme and Cade.
Abner: Me too
Judah: I’ll take never being able to get fat!!
Me: *sigh* Judah you could never get fat anyway.
Judah: Oh. . . really?
Me: YES!! I wouldn’t let you!!
Judah: Oh, well that’s nice to know!
Would your character rather, live how they’re currently living (in the various places they are in their WIP) or live the life they had before?
Carly: *looks at Cade again*
Cade: *again looks away*
Carly: I’d rather stay where I am now. . . I’m living my dreams
Cade: *swallows* I’d go back
Storme: *shudders* I- I want to go back- back to when I was a child. . . and I want everything to go differently!!
Francis: Me too
Judah: *face sobers* *stares out a window* (voice is unsteady) I-I want to go back. . .
Abner: *looks at me* *swallows hard* I don’t know- – – I guess. . . I’ll stay right here.
Would your character rather be a complete nobody, unable to ever become known, or super famous and unable to find anyone who hasn’t heard of them?
Carly: *sighs* I’ve always wanted to be super famous. . . like Cade *gives Cade a sidelong glance*
Cade: *shakes his head* *then looks at the floor, deep in thought* I think- I’d like to be a nobody- having your whole life on the internet is not always easy.
Carly: *giggles again* Oh come on Cade, don’t you like being a super hot heartthrob?
Cade: *blushes* yeah. I guess. It’s fun most of the time. But it would be nice to be able to be a nobody for a little while at least.
Storme: A want to be a nobody.
Francis: Yeah. It’s hard to hide when everybody knows who you are.
Judah: I don’t know. I’d like it if I could switch back and forth.
Abner: I’ll be a nobody
Would your character rather be able to visit a past version of themselves to prevent a mistake or visit a future version of themselves to get advice?
Carly: *rests her chin in her hand thoughtfully* I don’t have a lot of regrets. . . I guess I’d visit a future version and get advice.
Cade: *bites his lip and looks at the floor* I’d definitely go back. . . there’s so many things I wish I could go back and change. . .
Storme: *looks at Cade and nods* Yes. . . I’d go back too.
Francis: I guess I’ll go with Carly.
Judah: *looks disturbed* I-I’d go back too I think.
Abner: Yeah. . . me too.
Would your character rather shower in whipped cream or bathe in Jello?
Carly: *giggles*
Cade: *with the hint of a smile around his mouth leans over and whispers to Carly* Why are we talking about taking showers?
Carly: *giggles again* Who knows?!! Ask whoever made up the question!! Well. . . since it would be almost impossible to bathe in jello. . . I guess I’ll shower in whipped cream.
Cade: Yeah. . . you’re right, that would be pretty much impossible. . . Sure, why not shower in whipped cream?!
Storme: *laughs softly* I don’t know. I guess I’ll agree with you two.
Francis: Umm. . . yeah! Sure! Whipped cream!
Judah: JELLO!!! Who says it’s impossible?! I think it’s cool.
Me: You would!!
Abner: *laughs* I go with Judah- just to be different.
Would your character rather be stuck in a time loop for a month or stuck with their worst enemy for two weeks? (Note: They wouldn’t be able to kill each other if they were stuck with their enemy. Fight, yes, kill, no.)
Carly: wow. . that’s–creepy. . .um. . . I don’t really have an enemy. . . so. . . I guess I’ll go with that.
Cade: I guess I’ll be stuck with my worst enemy
Storme: *turns pale* time loop!!
Francis: Yeah, time loop.
Judah: Yeah!! Being stuck in a time loop would be pretty fun!!
Abner: Could be fun. Sure. I’ll be stuck in a time loop for a month.
Apologies for this extremely long post!!!
Sold souls and dead promises
@emberynus-the-dragonslayer: Nice to meet Carly, Cade, and Storme! Are they from the same story as the other characters there?
For the sake of concisiveness (sorry to torture you, English freaks…😂) I’m going to stick with my characters from The Clefs for this because I’ve missed a good deal.😜 I’ll bring in the Dragon Slayer charries some other time. 😉
Would your character rather hear elevator music every time they moved or see everything in black and white?
Cadenza: I don’t know what an elevator is… we already hear music every time any of us takes a step… and everyone on this island is already black and white… I don’t think there’s much of a choice here…
Me: Just so you know, elevator music is far more monotone and boring than the music you’re used to, and the question asks ALL black and white as opposed to simply keymatines’ black and white skin.
Cadenza: Well, then, I guess I’ll go black and white so that this ‘elevator music’ doesn’t interfere with my own.
Barbinas: I don’t care. I already hear stupid music whenever I MOVE! It’s unfair. And I couldn’t care less if everything was black and white. I don’t think it would make hunting any harder.
Elissa: I agree with Cadenza.
Would your character rather be able to know when someone’s lying, or never be able to get fat?
Cadenza: I don’t think I need to worry about getting fat anyway. I’d love to know whenever someone isn’t telling the truth. *glances at Barbinas*
Barbinas: Oh, shut up. I always tell you the truth. Did I ever SAY that I wouldn’t run away from you at every possible chance? I’d like to know what lies YOU tell…
Cadenza: What about that ‘I could shoot a fly from across the River Adagio’ bluff?
Barbinas: Still not lying.
Me: Okay, break it up.
Elissa: I’d appreciate knowing when someone is lying. I like getting to the bottom of why he or she is lying in the first place. *takes an inconspicuous glance at Barbinas*
Would your character rather live how they’re currently living (in the various places they are in their WIP) or live the life they had before?
Cadenza: Is this even a question? TAKE ME BACK TO MY OLD LIFE!!
Barbinas: I actually prefer being with flighty, prideful Cadenza and Ms. Goody Two-Shoes Elissa in the mountains now over being with the Flats before. *shrugs* I even surprise myself with that answer.
Elissa: This life. I know I wouldn’t choose it if I were living in my old life, but this one’s far better.
Cadenza: *casts a disbelieving stare in Elissa’s direction* You were famous! You were at the top! You were-
Me and Elissa: STOP.
Elissa: I don’t want to talk about that.
Me: It’s alright, Elissa. *pats on back* Cadenza, just wait for this next question…
Would your character rather be a complete nobody, unable to ever become known, or super famous and unable to find anyone who hasn’t heard of them?
Cadenza: *chorus of angels* GIVE ME FAME
Barbinas: *rolls eyes* You’re insane.
Cadenza: What? Would YOU rather be a nobody?
Barbinas: *stutters* S-sure. I liked being unknown.
Cadenza: *smirks*
Elissa: *looks at Barbinas suspiciously, taking mental notes*: I would rather be unable to become known.
Cadenza: Too late for that!
Me: CADENZA! I don’t normally need to scold you like this. Leave your cousin alone.
Would your character rather be able to visit a past version of themselves to prevent a mistake or visit a future version of themselves to get advice?
Cadenza: I think I’d like to fix everything that happened in the past. Though, I’d need to figure out how to do that…
Elissa: From what I’ve heard, you could have fixed it with some good humility…
Cadenza: . . . . . . . . . . *GAG*
Barbinas: I think I’d like some advice from my future self. If I’d had that in the past I probably wouldn’t have gotten stuck with Cadenza.
Cadenza: *shoots him a victorious grin*
Elissa: *looks at Cadenza* *looks at Barbinas* *looks towards mountains* *looks east*
Barbinas: Helloooo?
Elisa: Sorry… just thinking about how much fixing past mistakes would change the future. If I’d changed that… one event…
Cadenza: The danc-
Me: Quiet.
Elissa: If I’d changed that, I wouldn’t have become a Sharp. If I were to change my past attitude and pride, I could have prevented… changing other people… *glances at Cadenza, then back down* But if I get future advice, I might be able to fix past mistakes without CHANGING the present. Maybe… maybe I’d do that.
Me: Okay! Enough spoilers for now. 😉
Would your character rather shower in whipped cream or bathe in Jello?
Cadenza: What’s whipped cream?
Elissa: Jello?
Barbinas: What’s a bath?
Cadenza and Elissa: Ewww…..
Me: I’ll let you guys off the hook with this one…
Would your character rather be stuck in a time loop for a month or stuck with their worst enemy for two weeks? (Note: They wouldn’t be able to kill each other if they were stuck with their enemy. Fight, yes, kill, no.)
Cadenza: *looks at Barbinas*
Barbinas: *looks at Cadenza*
Cadenza: Are we enemies?
Barbinas: Yes. But not WORST enemies. I’d be stuck with Edwin.
Elissa: Who?
Cadenza: His brother.
Barbinas: But I can’t kill him… that’d be torturous for me.
Cadenza: You’ve already stuck him with an arrow!
Barbinas: True. I couldn’t kill him… but I could fight him and make him squirm…
Cadenza: Wow… you’re dark… and he’s OLDER than you! I don’t think I have a worst enemy…
Elissa: Me neither.
Me: You both do. Elissa, you would be stuck with Faiza if it were possible.
Elissa: *hyperventilates and faints*
Me: And Cadenza, you have an enemy too. You just haven’t met them yet.
Cadenza: THEM?!
Wow, I’ve just noticed for more than usual as I over-read this that Cadenza is really annoying! 😁 I’ve accomplished what I wanted. She’s got a GREAT character arc, not to pat myself on the back…. jkjk. XD
NEW Q: Would your character rather have a sidekick or a lover/someone to love?
@emberynus-the-dragonslayer Glad to have you back!* When Carly, Strome and Caden enter ally charries nod or smiles but Megyn blushes a tiny bit when she sees Caden.*
Would your character rather have a sidekick or a lover/someone to love?
Dayton: *glares poisonously at me* “Why are you asking me this??!! You should know the answer!!
ME: I know but not everyone else does!
Dayton: “Like they need to!!!” *sits glaring with unspeakable angry at the wall for a second* I’ll have the sidekick, though I have too mamy already! *Glares at Alan*
Alan: “Aww c’mon! I like being your sidekick! *winks at me* Life is always exciting.
ME: ok Alan, just answer the question please.
Alan: “Ok. . .*fully realizes the full potential of the question* I’d have a love interest . . . If Jack will let me have her . . .
ME:*rolling eyes* Oh, please! Alan!
Jim: “Think I’d rather have the sidekick.
Megyn: *been sitting very still, thinking deeply with a tiny smile playing about her lips* “I’d love my sidekick as well as anyone else but. . . *Turns her eyes in Caden and Abner’s direction* I’d rather have a love interest or at least someone to love.”
Would your character rather shower in whipped cream or bathe in Jello?
Dayton: *stares blankly a moment* “WHAT!??! Why is that even in there?? This IS stupid!
ME: sits waiting
Dayton: “I’d have neither! Thank you!!”
Alan: “Aww, c’mon, Chief. I think it’s cool!
Dayton: “Because you are a – a” *snarls*
Alan: “Could I have both?? Tub full of Jello with a rain of whipped cream coming down. . .*sighs, leans back and folds his hands behind his head* Sounds just . . . amazing . . .
ME: *rolls eyes*
Jim: *Looks like he’s holding back a laugh* “I have no clue . . .
Megyn: *laughs at Abner’s reply. Makes a face at Judah* “I guess I’ll-shower- in whipped cream. The Jello would be–difficult to deal with.”
New Q: Would you rather have your fiercest foe know all your secrets and weaknesses or have the ones of your best friend exposed to the whole world?
Dayton: *stiffens* No one know those things about me-And I’d never let them . . . And may I remind you, I don’t have a best friend.”
Alan: “Uhh . . . Are you sure?”
Dayton:*wheels on him* “What do you mean??!”
Alan: Uh-um, I mean, if I were mention Jared Palmer to you-
Dayton*half-rises, fist clenched. Sees me give Jim a little hand signal.Sits back down.* “When we get back to the station . . .
Alan: “Oh . . .boy!!! . . . I guess I’d rather have my enemy, who is unfortunately the fair lady sitting far too close to me for my comfort, know all problems. Jack has got some things . . .wrong with him.”
Dayton: “Isn’t that the truth!!”
ME: SHHHH!!
Jim: *missed my signal because he was sitting gazing with a distrubed expression. “He can know mine. With the Lord’s help I can face him.”
Megyn: *sobers. She looks at Abner and bites her lip* “I . . . I’d rather have my foe know all my weaknesses. Like Jim said, in the strength of my Lord, I can resist my enemy. And for my best friend’s heart to be bared before all the eyes of the all the world . . . *Shakes her head*
Psalm 119:11
Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.They’re all very glad to meet you too!!
I kinda haven’t started their personal stories yet. My sister and I just kinda role play all our characters in one big story and then they eventually break off into their own stories.
Judah: YAY!!! It’s you again!! I was wondering when you’d show up!!
Cade: *smiles at Megyn and raises an eyebrow*
Would your character rather have a sidekick or a lover/someone to love?
Carly: Weeeellll *blushes* I’d rather have a lover. . . *peeks at Cade from under her eyelashes*
Cade: *looks sideways at Carly* *glances across at Megyn* *leans back in his chair and folds his arms* I guess I’d have to agree with ya Carly.
Storme: Sidekick I guess. . .
Francis: Yeah. Sidekick
Judah: (desperately) LOVER!!!
Me: Judah…
Abner: I don’t know. . . I guess a sidekick.
Would you rather have your fiercest foe know all your secrets and weaknesses or have the ones of your best friend exposed to the whole world?
Carly: Again I don’t really have any enemies. . . so I’ll pick the first option.
Cade: I’ll pick that one too.
Storme: *bursts into tears*
Cade: *jumps up and goes over to Storme* *lays a hand on her shoulder* Are you okay Storme?
Storme: *Nods* Yes. . . I’ll be alright in a moment.
Cade: What’s wrong?
Storme: Nothing. . . Thank you Cade but- just go on with the questions.
Abner: *squeezes Storme’s other shoulder* I’ll choose the first one
Judah: Umm . . . I’ll choose- yeah- same as Abner.
Sold souls and dead promises
*grin* I haven’t done this in a while, let’s do it again. I’m just going to pick the most recent ones that sounds the best to answer because I don’t know how the system for questions is working these days, soooooo here we go.
Would your character rather live alone for the rest of their lives, but have the safety of their loved ones guaranteed, or live among their loved ones for ten years before they all die?
Kirin: He’d rather live alone for the rest of his life. Kirin cares about nothing more than the people he loves and keeping them safe, having them die because of him or a mistake he made(or anything he can somehow connect to one of his shortcomings) would be much worse than living alone. He’s also a very sociable person though at heart, so he’d probably go nuts after a while(a shorter while than most people… he’s a chatterbox XD). 😐
Jax: Jax would also probably live alone, but he’s the anti-social type anyhow so it wouldn’t bother him as much. He’s never really had friends to rely on the first place, so being alone is more comfortable for him than trying to navigate the nuances of verbal and nonverbal communication. (Leaves him so frustrated sometimes lol) He’s also quiet – much quieter than the resident motor-mouth Kirin, so it wouldn’t bother him as much. And like Kirin, once he does form connections with people, he cherishes that much more than his own comfort and life.
Shadow/Hayden: Shadow… is very clingy. We’ll say that. He cares very much about the people he loves, and it would be very hard for him to leave them even if it kept them safe. Intellectually, I think he’d probably say that he’d live alone, but when it comes down too it? He might not.
Vyrn: Vyrn’s exceeding stubborn, too much her own right, and she’d probably fight both answers to be honest and die trying or something. XD Nothing satisfies her unless it’s what she explicitly wants.
Would your character rather be able to visit a past version of themselves to prevent a mistake or visit a future version of themselves to get advice?
Kirin: Yes… and no. Kirin would love to get out of the mess he’s been in since he was a child, due to circumstances, but he’s also very wary of changing anything about who he is. He’s quite proud of who he’s become despite what he had to come through, and if he were to change that he’d probably be very unsure as to what he is without those life-changing mistakes. As for the future version – he’s also wary of looking into the future because he’s the type of dude who lived for ‘carpe diem’ and all that. Knowing his future self or asking his future self for advice would directly contradict that nature, and he’d also be confused of what to think with that knowledge.
Jax: Jax would probably do just about anything to fix what he holds as his greatest mistake in life – not taking care of his mother well enough when she was ill. He’d also love to fix his mistakes after he went into the occupation *cough* of a mercenary/rogue type dude, but he also might encourage his younger self to make those mistakes that led to that occupation sooner in life as well due to the fact it would bring in more money with meant he could get his mother taken care of. He’d also probably visit with his future self, because unlike Kirin Jax likes to try and predict the outcome of events before they happen – visiting his future self for advice could give him some very good clues of how his life would play out.
Shadow/Hadyn: Shadow doesn’t really acknowledge that he made mistakes until later on the book, but once he does he’s very guilty about them but also simultaneously struggling with the fact that he could make mistakes just due to the mentality of his upbringing. So I’d imagine he’d struggle a bit about deciding whether to learn what his future has in store or going back in time and putting his head straight on his shoulders sooner rather than later.
Vyrn: Vyrn would probably go back in time to offer her younger self a bit more confidence and motivation and also probably a clue or two about what’s going to happen so she’s not so darn confused. She’s also a bit more like Kirin with a carpe diem attitude, though she’d probably appreciate seeing her future self and what happened in the future to her kingdom and people rather than going back in time.
Would your character rather be stuck in a time loop for a month or stuck with their worst enemy for two weeks? (Note: They wouldn’t be able to kill each other if they were stuck with their enemy. Fight, yes, kill, no.)
Kirin: Oh dear… well, Kirin and Shadow are originally enemies, and I think the two half-bros would probably kill each other through debate before the two weeks were up. Kirin would also probably not do well in a time loop – he’d try to fix everything in one day like a Groundhog Day sort of deal and end up getting discouraged over and over again when he can’t make everything perfect.
Jax: Jax doesn’t really have a defined personal enemy, though you could say to some extent Kirin is his enemy at some points. They’re certainly quite opposite enough – Kirin with motor-mouth and impulsive decisions, Jax quiet and carefully calculated plans of strategy and finesse. I think if those two were stuck together Jax would either go mad within the first few days, or go to any means to prevent Kirin from talking. XD As for the time loop – I don’t think anyone does well in a time loop. Jax can’t calculate his way out of that, so it would be challenging if not maddening for him. He’d probably even choose Kirin over it, to be honest.
Shadow/Hayden: Shadow, stuck with Kirin for two weeks… they’d argue like all brothers do, and then some. They’d probably have several long and loud debates on certain moral and philosophical topics as well, ending with Kirin talking like Hamilton and Shadow enforcing the better points of a centralized monarchy with some amount of passion. I’d imagine they’d come out a little worse for the wear from a few physical fights as well, but since both are rather diplomatic and lawyer-like by nature words are the better weapon.
Vyrn: Vyrn’s enemy would be also Shadow. (He’s the main antagonist for 2/3 of the series really, cut him some slack). If stuck together, I don’t know honestly if they’d come out with 1/3 of their bones broken or as best friends. As for the time loop…. Vyrn herself would probably choose the time loop over Shadow, but she’d probably do better with Shadow than with the time loop since he’s in all honesty not a terrible person. XD
Alright, so now a new question… hmm.
Would your character rather live through their worst mistake again, or have someone close to them make the same mistake?
Have fun. 😉

@sarah-inkdragon, ooh good question! let’s see. . .
Introducing Aarin Huruan (his name will probably change tho XD)
Would your character rather live through their worst mistake again, or have someone close to them make the same mistake?
Kirat: I would never want anyone in my family to have to go through what I did, I would live through it as every day as long as they never have to experience the pain that my mistake brought me.
Jin: Worst mistake huh? *turns to me* What would that be?
Me: Probably . . . fair point. you’re a good kid.
Jin: *beams*
Rhioe: I’ve hurt enough people, I will never make a mistake like the one I did, but I would re-live it if it means someone I love doesn’t ever have to experience the pain I earned from making those mistakes.
Me: Everyone I have on here is too goody-goody XD. . .
Aarin: Well, you could just, you know, put some of the others on here.
Me: But-but, I just hate them so much!!!
Aarin: *rolls eyes* I would go back and re-live my mistake, because Kirat knows now how much I love him, so it shouldn’t be a problem. I would never want anyone I love to not show enough love to someone, (tongue twister XD) The people I love deserve more than that.
Me: You’re all too nice!

Would your character rather live through their worst mistake again, or have someone close to them make the same mistake?
Dayton: *sits VERY still glaring at me* “I don’t want my boys making the mistake I did. I’ll relive it-” *knots her fists*
Alan: “Uhh . . . I don’t what was my worst mistake but I’ll relive it, I guess.”
Jim: *looks troubled* “I’ll relive my mistake.”
Megyn: *look down and bites her lip* “Me too.”
Psalm 119:11
Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.Would your character rather live through their worst mistake again, or have someone close to them make the same mistake?
Eina: O_O *eyes suddenly look shattered* *backs away*
Kari: *inhales sharply* *bites the inside of her cheek* I guess… I don’t… I’d live through it again. I’d… I’d be able to deal with it better since I knew it was coming, and… *closes her eyes* I don’t want my friends or family having to go through that.
Zane: *exhales and thinks* What was my greatest mistake?
Me: I don’t know, you haven’t made many.
Eina: *mutters something darkly*
Me: I take it you’re ready to answer, then, Eina?
Eina: *sighs, still looking shattered and says barely audibly and pretty miserably* I don’t know what I’d pick.
Me: Yeah, I can’t really blame you. Keldan?
Keldan: Relive it, I guess. *clams up*
Zerach: I can’t exactly relive mine… it doesn’t really work that way…
Wisteria: *gently smacks his arm* You’re just trying to get out of answering.
Zerach: -_-
Wisteria: *shakes her head at him* I don’t really care, personally. Everyone except Zer’s already making my greatest mistake anyway.Would you rather have your fiercest foe know all your secrets and weaknesses or have the ones of your best friend exposed to the whole world?
Eina: *chokes violently*
Kari: I’m pretty sure my worst enemies already know my secrets and weaknesses… so… yep.
Keldan: *stares* I don’t have a best friend. So that’s an easy choice.
Eina: *is still choking*
Zane: Okay, I’m taking you back to the infirmary. *thumps her back and gently starts guiding her out of the room*
Eina: *while choking* Stop. No more… medics. *tries to wave him off* *fails* *is escorted out of room and back to the infimary*
Zerach: *glances at Wis* Neither choice is good.
Wisteria: *nods firmly in agreement* Either way I think we’d be exposed.
Zerach: Fiercest foe, then?
Wisteria: It’s better than everyone, at least.
Zerach: *nods*Would you rather have your fiercest foe know all your secrets and weaknesses or have the ones of your best friend exposed to the whole world?
Jordan: I’d rather have my enemy know everything.
Judah: If the secrets part referred just to my personal secrets and not to the secrets I know about other people, then, yeah, I’d rather have my fiercest foe know them…as fun as that would be. And anyway, I feel like my weaknesses are kind of obvious to those who know me.
Dante: I’d rather have the ones of my best friend exposed to the world. I know, I know. But common! I doubt any of them would be that horrible. And it would kind of ruin my life if everyone knew my secrets.
New Question: Would your character rather turn themselves in for crimes they committed or “get away” with them and live with the guilt?
Would your character rather live through their worst mistake again, or have someone close to them make the same mistake?
Carly: My worst mistake? Umm. . . I honestly don’t remember what that was!! But I’d rather live it over again then have someone close live through it.
Cade: *bites his lip and looks at the floor* I would definitely not want any of my friends to have to make the mistakes I have. *Blinks hard* but reliving them would be- really difficult for me. . . *Swallows* I’d have to say I’d rather relive them. . . Maybe I could handle it better the second time.
Storme: *turns white and starts shaking* I-I can’t go through that again!!! I just can’t!! But for it to happen to someone else. . . *Bursts into tears again*
Carly: *gets up and hugs Storme*
Me: Storme, you don’t have to answer this one.
Storme *nods and hugs Carly*
Francis: I’ll relive it again
Judah: *looks like he’s going to cry* yup! I wouldn’t want it to happen to anyone else.
Abner: same
Would your character rather turn themselves in for crimes they committed or “get away” with them and live with the guilt?
Carly: I don’t know. Somehow I just can’t imagine commiting a crime! But I guess I’d turn myself in. . .
Cade: yeah same
Storme: I would have to turn myself in as well. . . I don’t think I could handle guilt very long.
Francis: Me too
Judah: umm. . . I don’t know. . . I guess same as everyone else.
Abner: yeah
New Q: Would your character rather accidentally kill a person very close to them or have that person be killed by their worst enemy?
Carly: Oh my!!! What a question!! Ummm. . . I don’t think I could ever handle having killed someone. . .
Cade: *gets a little pale* *starts trembling* *starts to speak then chokes*
Carly: Cade?!! *Grabs his arm* Cade are- are you okay?
Cade: *gasps* Y-yeah- I I-I’m alright. I just- I- *chokes* *turns gray* I just don’t know- I don’t know what to say . . . *tears fill his eyes* umm. . . *bites his lip* *trembles harder* *swallows*
Me: Cade just breathe for a minute. Calm down. You know what will happen if you friek yourself out like this
Cade: *nods* *leans back in his chair and shuts his eyes* I really don’t know- I don’t- I don’t think I can answer this question. *Takes a deep breath*
Storme: I think I’d have to agree with Carly.
Francis: me too.
Judah: I don’t know. It would be horrible to accidentally kill someone, but at the same time. . . The other option would probably be a much more horrible death for them.
Abner: yeah. I’m with you Judah. That’s a really hard decision to make.
