MEME: Reverse Questions

[girlalmighty]

Hey, before I forget and pass out, here's your Monday meme!

Tag in with all the characters you play. Then ask each other questions. Questions may be from the player or the characters themselves, but answers must come from the player, since of course, you can't really trust a character always to answer truthfully. Anything goes, whether they're questions about specific tags, plots, feelings, characters, or just general gameplay questions.

Has Andrea surprised you in any way since you started playing her?

This answer sort of hinges on the fact that I transferred her from TR. Canonically, Andrea's really free emotionally. She makes no attempt to hide it when she cares about someone, which is part of what I love so much about her -- anyone who can live through what she's lived through and still want so badly to love people and be loved in return is amazing to me. I didn't set out to ship her with anyone when I brought her to TR, but she and Laine's Sam Flynn kind of fell into something anyway and it had only just started when I decided to transfer her at Darrow.

What surprises me is that she's still clinging to the hope that Sam might come here, too. Or Dale or Rick or any of the men she's loved/thought she could love. I didn't exactly expect her to move on right away, but I've been surprised by how vehemently opposed she really is to moving on in my head.

And the fact that she's so readily taken on caring for Clementine. The story she told Mike about the twin boys she was caring for really traumatized her and she's always wanted kids, but now pretty much thinks she doesn't deserve them. So that she jumped into caring for Clementine without too much worry was a bit of a wonderful surprise.
