meme: reverse questions

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.

I'm in four now (yeek), but what I've found is that so long as I make sure that there are differentiation, I'm fine. Like, Charming, I play in two places but at City, he's more David Nolan than his Charming version and it lets my brain wander, but I was playing Danny in two places and it effectively killed the voice at both because he was the same and I had no canon support in either, which sucked.

I will say that it helps that two of the games have no reqs because it allows me to focus on City when and not feel guilty.

(Also, if we got a Proteus or a Van Helsing, that would help along my Victor decision immensely)

[eternaldaisy]

Absolutely! I want all the questions. :D

And pretty bleak, tbh. She's been told that Snow and Coin are both dead (though she doesn't know that she killed the latter), but more importantly, she knows that Prim is dead, and can pretty accurately predict her response to that, which is to shut the fuck down. That's about as far as she'd get, though, knowing that it would be pretty awful and that she wouldn't want to keep going.

NURSING SCHOOL. I can't imagine her doing something else, knowing her canon, knowing the sort of person that she is. I'd really like for her to consider adopting or something down the line, since I've always found it kind of tragic that she has no mother and can bear no child.

Probably typical blonde!JLaw if only because there are times that she can almost convince herself that's what she really likes like. Other than that, whatever gets the best reaction. She can have fun with it, sometimes.

Because I wanted the broken boy. Because I'm awful. But really, I love characters are their most vulnerable and I've loved defying the preconception many have had of Finnick as this Capitol Golden Boy.

I do have long-term thinks. I'm just not sure which kind you mean. I think they are a long-term thing if that's the question. If you are wondering what long term plans I have...well. You know me. I want to shake them up, traumatize them a bit, see what happens. It's weird because they make no sense on paper but they work so adorably in threads. They are both rather light people, if you get my meaning. They live lightly. But they come from such different places that they are constantly surprising each other.

As for Vanessa. HELL. YES. But I don't want her to lose her demon permanently. They can try an exorcism or something along those lines just for the drama and the wacky thread fun times, but she would never want to be 'normal' so that's not an option. She keeps her demon. But yeah, I think playing out a full possession would be INCREDIBLE.

Oh, GOOD QUESTION. My gut feeling is: she would have gone out to India with him, had a number of children, watched him chase everything in a skirt while his career flatlined, and probably died quite young of either fever or childbirth.

One really sort of has to wonder how optimistic she actually was about her future even at the time. Especially with her parents' marriage as an example.

[smiles_on]

No. I don't remember. I mean .... be more specific. And of course lesbianism. :)

[nervesofsteel]

Really not well at all, poor bb. Part of that is because of where I took him from. He knows Sherlock is alive, but absolutely nothing is resolved, and he is stuck in this limbo where he is neither able to forgive Sherlock nor move on from him. As a result, Sherlock is pretty constantly on his mind. And that would drive anyone crazy.

The other part of it is that Sherlock forces John to confront (even embrace) the darker side of himself that he would rather keep buried under a million layers of English self-deprecation. Not only does he give John an outlet for all his wonderful adrenaline junkie tendencies, but he makes them okay. John is pretty convinced that anyone else in his life would think he was certifiable if they knew how much he loved danger and doing completely crazy things for the sake of the greater good. Sherlock thinks it's the most important thing about him.

(He's wrong in thinking that Sherlock is the only one who gets it. Mary understands him a lot better than John thinks she does.)

So yeah. Sherlock reminds John who he really is, and without Sherlock, John has to get there on his own. And man, he does not like it.

[not_acute]

I'll let you know when I get there. D:

[somuchsuffering]

She really does have at least moderately strong aspirations towards open world, or at least city, domination. Not immediately, but I think she has, like, a five-year plan. Gosh, the things you discover about your characters. So: acknowledged vampiric reign of terror, humans as snacks, with Vanessa (in her plan Vanessa has fangs) at her side. It's really quite romantic.

[smiles_on]

That makes sense to me. I can't imagine having the brain space for four games. You amaze me! And I'll try not to be too demanding on the Victor thing, I'll just bat my eyelashes at you every once in a while. ;)

I've played the same character in different places but never at the same time. But I get what you're saying about needing to differentiate them somehow. For example I played Black Canary in two games but in one she was the cartoon version and in the other she was the comics version. Made it a lot easier.

So does that mean she's happy to be in Darrow? Or is she waiting for the other shoe to drop? Or something else entirely?

(We need to thread them, just fyi. <3)

[not_acute]

Have I asked you what your long term plans are for Scripps? I feel like I asked you this last time.

[somuchsuffering]

Cash, firstborn children, this one being fucking creepy at him... whatever, really.

[smiles_on]

Ha! We have that in common. We're both awful and like to traumatize our characters. ;)

I get the second bit, though. Definitely. Follow-up question(s). Is he happy in Darrow? If not, do you think he has the potential to be at some point? What would that look like?

LOOK, HE CAN ONLY HANDLE ONE CREEPY LADY KNOWING ALL HIS SECRETS AT ONCE, OKAY.

[spirit_of_vitriol]

Caitlin, just for Flavia de Luce.

[smiles_on]

That IS romantic! I think Vanessa might not be down with it, but she wouldn't be able to deny it's quite romantic. Another question. We know what Vanessa thought of Mina when they were little. What did Mina think of Vanessa? Specifically.

[eternaldaisy]

Waiting for the other shoe to drop, mostly. Things are peaceful for the moment and not terrible and she's trying to enjoy that while it lasts — especially having Prim here, she wouldn't want to be anywhere else — but she's also sure that it won't last, and she doesn't want to lose sight of that. Settling, relaxing, what have you, not really in the cards, though she's a little more content than she used to be.

WE DO. I keep thinking that and then falling down on doing something about it. MY APOLOGIES. <3

[somuchsuffering]

BUT SHE'S SO GOOD AT IT.

[not_acute]

What drew you to Lindsay above all the other Angel/Buffy characters?

[smiles_on]

Peeeeeeeeeeta. I have questions. 1) Is he happy in Darrow?; 2) What kind of long-term goals does he have in the city; 3) Is he afraid of the possibility of going back to Panem or does he want to go home?
