MEME: Reverse Questions

Muns: Post here listing all of the characters you play (you might want to list journals, too, just for reference) or are thinking of playing.

Everyone: Ask the MUNS anything about the GAME or THEIR PUPS, because we all know the muns will answer when the characters won't. They can be specific questions ("How does he feel about her?") or general questions ("Why did you choose this pup?", "How do you channel them?", etc.) You can even have pups ask the questions, but ANSWERS are coming from the MUNS.

For the last time we did this one, check out the tag.

BONUS: For a voice post meme twist, use sites like Clyp and Chirbit to answer with voice clips instead!

What do you think you'd do if Isaac Marion released R's backstory? Do you have a headcanon for who he was before or does it really not factor into who he is now?

I have some ideas, and I'd be fascinated, but the big thing is the differences between the books and the movie. R in the books is older, a bit more pretentious?, and has some different opinions and tastes in comparison to movie R. I use the books to help flesh out a lot of the world building aspects, but haven't incorporated as many of those differences aside from some personality quirks.

I've kept the concept of R's backstory very vague. I have general headcanons (I think he was in college, I think he was a bit of a nerd, I think he had a rough home life and craved affection and companionship) and let those lead me. In The New Hunger, Marion heavily codes R's death as a birth and I like that angle. He's still new, and fresh, and a clean slate. He's learning and exploring. He has a personality, but he's malleable because he hasn't had many interactions or experiences to shape him.
