meme: reverse questions

[not_acute]

HOW ABOUT A FRIDAY NIGHT MEME?

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.

Watch him very, very closely. Though she didn't get much time to know him before arriving, Elsa liked Kristoff and she doesn't fault Anna for being charmed by Hans. Hans was very convincing. But she's a big sister through and through, and she worries. She doesn't want anyone hurting her sister ever again, so... yes. She'd be cautiously happy for Anna, and watch this new person like a hawk.

[frozenfractals]

YES. Zuko's fire and, obviously, Jack's ice were both huge for her, seeing firsthand that people can do things similar to her. But also enormously instrumental in her coping and self-acceptance has been Jessica, who told her about the X-Men and how superheroes are sometimes lauded in her world and even put on magazines and posters, and that idea of a world where people, even if not all of them, celebrate people like her was seriously an epiphany. And then the most recent thread I linked where her powers came back while she and Jess wound up fighting a fire has really helped turn her around. Finding there's a way she can help people with her abilities and that this is a thing people just do makes her so much more at ease, like she's finally found a purpose other than ruling Arendelle.

Oh, I totally think Mina realized it quite early on -- Peter never did, and Mina at the time was rather too soft-hearted to even try to disillusion him, but it didn't take her very long to realize that he didn't love their mother. And it all sort of built from there.

(And, well -- stuff. And things.)

[smiles_on]

Yes. Always stuff. And things. A lot of things. What age are we talking about here? Just...you know. Vaguely.

[frozenfractals]

Oh god, I have no idea. Be upset even though she was the one who vanished. Be upset because she was the one who vanished. And because she's with Logan and she loves Logan and she waited so long to have him back, even though she didn't consciously know she was waiting, but she loves Mathias too and always will. Lots of upset.

Yes, mostly. There's still a bit of him frustrated by the whole thing, partly because he feels he made an idiot of himself and partly because... a lot happened in his head without happening on the surface that night, and that not-quite-put-together feeling makes him uneasy and a little sick. But he's also mostly repressed it, so it's all good.

Both! There are still some things she really doesn't get, and she's not a fan of most modern fashion, actually. Like, she likes the stuff they print in magazines, but the basic day to day stuff largely bores her. She doesn't like having to watch her mouth when it comes to various slang phrases and attitudes, and she still has trouble with not being able to smoke wherever she wants. But she was also very much not... well, she was and is a woman of her time, which is fun for me to write, but she was also a single woman in a big city who never quite fit the mold she was expected to pour into, and in many ways, modern times suit her much better because no one bats an eye at her behavior. She's adjusted to a lot, especially, unfortunately, the fact that women can have their own credit cards now. And sexting.

[somuchsuffering]

For picking up from context that her parents' marriage was a very bad joke? Nine, or so.

[smiles_on]

Do you think she knew her father was having an affair with Vanessa's mother?

[somuchsuffering]

Not at that time, but not all that long after. They -- were kind of obvious.

[gloriouscurse]

I think because she's seen first hand how badly wishes can backfire, she'll be hesitant. She can't ask for Henry to be in Darrow, and she's afraid to ask for something for Robin or Roland, in case it somehow goes awry.

I'm not sure where the plot is going right now, I actually think Regina is to be the last one to have Cyrus's bottle in game? I can't remember, but if she is, she's going to wish for his freedom. She has what she wants in Darrow, and when she realizes all he wants is to be free to be with is love, well. That'll push some tender buttons.

[gloriouscurse]

Did Hook ever consider sleeping with Regina back in the Enchanted Forest? The first time, before she ever cast her original curse, I mean.

[smiles_on]

Ok. Last question, unless you want me to keep going. Did Mina know that Vanessa was stealing things from her and keeping secrets?

[somuchsuffering]

Keep on keeping on if you have more questions! And yes; she didn't know why, but honestly, Vanessa must have thought she was stupid. (That, actually, may rankle more than anything else. A lot of people have assumed Mina was stupid. She thought Vanessa knew her too well for that.)

She would have pushed the issue, but she -- well -- was a little frightened by the way she felt about Vanessa, at the time.

[smiles_on]

Well, I can tell you it isn't that Vanessa thought she was stupid. Just innocent. Vanessa really, really needed to believe that Mina was innocent. And doing naughty things and keeping secrets was her way of being NOT innocent.

How did she feel about Vanessa. Since you brought it up. ;)

[somuchsuffering]

There probably was a time when Mina didn't think innocence and stupidity were pretty much synonymous. That time is not now. <3

Confused. Wanting. Possessive. And not a little frightened, both by how different it was than anything she'd felt before and by the absolute dead certainty that she wasn't supposed to.

[smiles_on]

All of this is so delightful I can't even tell you. Although I figure you already know. ;)

I assume she isn't frightened or confused anymore?

[somuchsuffering]

Not even slightly. She wants. It's very -- pure. Straightforward.

[smiles_on]

It's also very delicious.

[somuchsuffering]

That too!

I SHOULD ASK YOU MORE OF THE THINGS. Let me think let me think! Well. How is Vanessa going to feel about realizing that Mina wanted her?

[smiles_on]

Unsurprised, I think. I mean she has her own issues about Mina to deal with first. I don't think she's ever been quite as confused or scared of her own feelings. She has been as obsessed with Mina as Mina has been with her for their whole lives. And I think she understood from about the time of the hedge maze incident that there was a sexual component to that obsession. But the hard part is going to be rewriting history to understand that Mina isn't who she thought she was. The mutual nature of their obsession is one thing, but realizing that Mina has always been as dark as she is and not the light reflection is going to shake up her whole universe.

[thetinydemon]

Because we SUCK, obviously.

As understanding as Thomas has tried to be up until this point, I do think that it would be difficult for Thomas, if T.J. were to relapse. He understands weakness very well, but he also doesn't want to be held back by anything, and I do think he'd have a hard time not resenting T.J. for that sort of regression. HA HA HA Awful. A short term relapse, one real slip-up would be one thing, but if it continued to be bad, Thomas might attempt to leave him, but it wouldn't stick. He wouldn't be able to abandon him.

I didn't really, and now that Will's gone, he's even more up in the air, at the moment. I'd like to get him involved in a cat and mouse game, again, but he'll need to come across someone he deems appropriate for the game, first. ALWAYS MORE SANSA.

Heeeeee's doing a lot better, actually. He feels a little more like himself, for the first time in months. He's still sober. He's going to work, slowly getting back in the ring again. He's doing okay. I don't really know how long it'll last, but for now, it's good.

ROFL Clint's gonna be so sad, but not all that surprised.

[thetinydemon]

STOP ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT HIS HAIR, YOU GUYS. GOD.

He's just gonna have to enjoy it while he can.

[somuchsuffering]

Eeeee yesgood.

Does Vanessa love Malcolm? If so, does she know she does?

[thetinydemon]

That's basically what's going on up in here.

Neil. Neil is my baby, I couldn't kill him. I've had him for eight years, I'm just way too emotionally attached to him. Oddly enough, I feel like I'd also have a hard time killing off Brian Kinney, who is young and beautiful and will never die because he's Brian Kinney, for fuck's sake.

And you can't kill off Hannibal Lecter. He's a cockroach, he'll outlive us all.

[thetinydemon]

As happy as he'd be to see her, it would come with a lot of guilt and confusion, so I feel like he'd begin acting out, in that way only a fourteen year old can. His mother would be especially difficult for him. Shane wouldn't be a picnic.

They're all people that he feels like his father let down, so I'm not sure he'd really know how to face most of them.

[smiles_on]

Yeah, ask me the EASY ones. ::SIGH::

Ok. She has always loved him. When she was a child she loved him the way you love someone bigger than life. She thought he hung the stars. He was the most wonderful, most vibrant, most dynamic thing in the universe and she couldn't NOT love him. Especially because he was absent so much of the time so he wasn't around to let the reality of him break that spell. And also because he doted on her like mad. After the hedge maze she loved him differently. He was no longer this perfect ideal, but he was the sexual ideal. He was what sex meant to her. What it was to be a man, ya know? Fast forward to the demon possession and all the things the demon whispered to her and she came to see who he truly was, thus the "weak, foul, lustful, vainglorious man" thing. But she still loves him. She loves him in an adult way. Not the child's love she used to have for him. She loves him because he is all she has left in the world, really, and because she KNOWS him and because you don't stop loving a father when you've come to understand he is also just a man. But it's love, not like. She doesn't LIKE the man he is. But she loves him.

Does any of that make sense?
