      Oh My GoOdNeSs… my computer almost erased my message…….!!

       


      @the_lost-journal

      Thanks, your family sounds pretty cool too! And I didn’t mean to insult you are anything…

      “Awh, yeah, nah. It’s good—not offended at all.”

      Wow, so you’ve bullied someone before…? That’s a little surprising.

      *laughs a little in a half embarrassed half remorseful way*   “Well… yeah… I-I mean… yeah…”

      So you wouldn’t track them down and kill them…? Sorry… that was uncalled for XD and what if it was one of your siblings? Or someone else who is really close.

      *Flaz laughs a little*   “I couldn’t kill them… I’d go to jail… and I’m not trying to, like, be in jail or anything. I’d have a really hard time forgiving the person… I think… but I wouldn’t want to kill them…”

      “If it was one of my siblings or friends who was dead… hmm… it’d still be the same…”

      Ah! So you’d try to talk your way out of it, with money? Interesting. What if they didn’t respond? Do you think you’d try to fight then?

      “Yup. I’d definetly try to fight them. Especially if they didn’t respond to me.”

      *Celestia walks by, she stops as soon as she hears the word, “money”… She peers in through the window*

      *Flaz does not notice.*

      Got it! I thought you were saying you swam off the island and made it back to civilization 😂 but anyway! How did you escape the island?

      *Flaz laughs*  “Oh that’s funny! That would’ve been awesome. But yeah, no. How I escaped… I don’t really remember.”

      Wow…. imagine how much that would cost…

      “Yeahh………………”

      Nice! I have only ever been to one wedding in my life, but it was pretty fun! What kind of traditions do you have?

      “Awh, awesome!”

      (World building needed… i actually haven’t thought too much into Burnish or Hebnic traditions… 😅😅)

      *(that is pretty cool!)*

      (Thanks, hee hee!)

      Is the king a good king?

      “heh…. a good king? No such thing!” *Celestia chuckles quietly from the hallway*

      *Flaz gets startled by Celestia—if he can hear her…?*

      “Yeah, he’s good.”

      And would he have the money to fix all the main problems?

      “Hmm… I don’t know. I-I don’t think so… unfortunately.”

      So you’re saying it’s not very stable…? But that is your to stay stable, and to peaceful? Nice.

      *nods*

      Do they ever act racist? Or act rude to you…? Sorry, I bet they don’t… well… if they’re good friends that is…

       *Laughs a little*   “Yeah, no. All the Ethrinians I know, like, personally and such are pretty nice.”

      What were the people like to you? Did they treat you well? Did you have to pay extra taxes on goods?

      “They were fine enough… yeah… I mean, if there was any discrimination I was not picking up on it… wasn’t as evident as some cases I’ve seen. Actually, there was one little kid who was running his mouth with all that trashy trash, and his parents didn’t stop him… so uh, I was a bit offended there. But that’s the most I remember… at the moment, at least. Yeah. I also wasn’t there for longer than, like, a day for most the occasions. Hello hello.”

      “Taxes seemed normal. But then again, I’m not sure.”   *squints and thinks*

      That’s what I imagined…

      *grins*

      That reminds me a lot of this one story, called Call of the Bog Owl. It is really similar to your world…

      (Oh interesting… I’ve never heard of it. *looks it up* ah, I shall have to look into it!)

       

      Tradition is just peer pressure from dead people.

        @grcr

        Oof, Wyoh was probably hacking you computer or smth XD

        “Awh, yeah, nah. It’s good—not offended at all.”

        Phew! Well, nice!

        *laughs a little in a half embarrassed half remorseful way*   “Well… yeah… I-I mean… yeah…”

        Well, it’s okay… I guess… I think everyone could be a little bit of a bully from time to time.

        *Flaz laughs a little*   “I couldn’t kill them… I’d go to jail… and I’m not trying to, like, be in jail or anything. I’d have a really hard time forgiving the person… I think… but I wouldn’t want to kill them…”

        Fair point. I just imagined- never mind!

        “If it was one of my siblings or friends who was dead… hmm… it’d still be the same…”

        Yeah, I was looking over what I said, and what I meant to say what if it was someone close to you who was the killer?

        “Yup. I’d definetly try to fight them. Especially if they didn’t respond to me.”

        Hm! I see! What if it turned out to be a prank?

        *Flaz does not notice.*

        *Celestia continues watching, not wanting to draw attention to herself*

        *Flaz laughs*  “Oh that’s funny! That would’ve been awesome. But yeah, no. How I escaped… I don’t really remember.”

        Oh… how don’t you remember…? That’s a little weird… Oh well… I guess?

        “Yeahh………………”

        Wow…….. a lot I guess…

        (World building needed… i actually haven’t thought too much into Burnish or Hebnic traditions… 😅😅)

        (Me just asking that question made me realize how much more world build I need too, lol)

        (Thanks, hee hee!)

        (you’re welcome, tee hee) (XD)

        *Flaz gets startled by Celestia—if he can hear her…?*

        “Yeah, he’s good.”

        Wha- CELESTIA! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!

        Celestia: “I- I heard the word money…” Celestia looks startled.

        *slaps face* Just go…

        Celestia: “Wait! Is he rich???” Celestia asks, pointing at Flazzy.

        ugh! I’m not sure! He said he had money-

        Celestia: “Where does he live…? For no apparent reason of course.”

        GO! *The interviewer shoves Celestia out of the room* Sorry about that….

        “Hmm… I don’t know. I-I don’t think so… unfortunately.”

        Oh, I’m sorry about that.

        Celestia: “Ha, he’s broke… what a horrible fate-”

        CELESTIA!!!!!!!

        So you’re saying it’s not very stable…? But that is your to stay stable, and to peaceful? Nice.

        (EWWWW WHAT THE HECK IS THAT GRAMMAR??!??!?!?!?!? SORRY! I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT I ASKED!)

         *Laughs a little*   “Yeah, no. All the Ethrinians I know, like, personally and such are pretty nice.”

        Makes sense… I don’t know why’d you want to be friends with someone who intentionally tries to hurt your… feelings…….. ………….. … . . .  . . ..  .. …. …… ……

        ….. …. sorry….

        “They were fine enough… yeah… I mean, if there was any discrimination I was not picking up on it… wasn’t as evident as some cases I’ve seen. Actually, there was one little kid who was running his mouth with all that trashy trash, and his parents didn’t stop him… so uh, I was a bit offended there. But that’s the most I remember… at the moment, at least. Yeah. I also wasn’t there for longer than, like, a day for most the occasions. Hello hello.”

        Young children are brats XD XD XD sorry! I don’t actually think that- well… maybe sometimes…. But that’s good that you weren’t loudly judged…

        “Taxes seemed normal. But then again, I’m not sure.”   *squints and thinks*

        Yeah, you can never tell!

        (Oh interesting… I’ve never heard of it. *looks it up* ah, I shall have to look into it!)

        I suggest you do! It may be for younger readers probably IDK, but it’s a fun read! And it references the Bible A TON!

        Moral of the story, "always listen to a carrot cake when it screams at you."

          Yeah, probably lolol XD XD

          Well, it’s okay… I guess… I think everyone could be a little bit of a bully from time to time.

          *nods*

          Yeah, I was looking over what I said, and what I meant to say what if it was someone close to you who was the killer?

          “Ohhh, I see ya now. Hmm… I’d be… I’d be really mad at them.”   *a pause*   “Besides turning them in tho, there’s still nothing I could do besides, like, be mad at them.”   *cackles*   “Oh, man that’s so crazy. I’d be such a ball of anger and sadness.”   *cackles some more*

          Hm! I see! What if it turned out to be a prank?

          “Oh, I’d be pretty mad. I, um, don’t really like pranks. I mean, I like to be the one pranking people, sometimes… but being pranked is no good. No good at all.”

          *Celestia continues watching, not wanting to draw attention to herself*

          Oh… how don’t you remember…? That’s a little weird… Oh well… I guess?

          (Tbh, it was in a bit of RPing with my brother. I don’t really remember how or even if they escaped.)

          (Me just asking that question made me realize how much more world build I need too, lol)

          (Lol XD XD)

          Wha- CELESTIA! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!

          GO! *The interviewer shoves Celestia out of the room* Sorry about that….

          *Flaz laughing so hard*   “Oh boy, that’s funny right there.”

          (This whole part is funny, i love it! XD XD)

          (If you care to know—Flaz, his mom, and his three siblings live in Burnswell, which is a huge neighborhood of mansions. They aren’t the richest family out there, but they do have quite a bit of money. They’re definitely above middle-class.)

          Oh, I’m sorry about that.

          “It’s good. We’ll get it together eventually… I hope… somehow… maybe…”

          Celestia: “Ha, he’s broke… what a horrible fate-”

          CELESTIA!!!!!!!

          “Phffff!”   *Flaz laughs*

          (EWWWW WHAT THE HECK IS THAT GRAMMAR??!??!?!?!?!? SORRY! I DON’T EVEN KNOW WHAT I ASKED!)

          (LOLOL XD XD)

          Makes sense… I don’t know why’d you want to be friends with someone who intentionally tries to hurt your… feelings…….. ………….. … . . .  . . ..  .. …. …… ……

          ….. …. sorry….

          *nods*

          Young children are brats XD XD XD sorry! I don’t actually think that- well… maybe sometimes…. But that’s good that you weren’t loudly judged…

          *nods and smiles*   “Yeah.”

          I suggest you do! It may be for younger readers probably IDK, but it’s a fun read! And it references the Bible A TON!

          Very interesting!! I’ve found a sample so i think I’m gonna read that when i get the time…

            Hm… (talking to GRCR, sorry that I keep asking your character this question, but I just imagine that writers like to do the impossible or illegal with characters, I guess I should just realize that isn’t what ever author does XD)

            “Oh, I’d be pretty mad. I, um, don’t really like pranks. I mean, I like to be the one pranking people, sometimes… but being pranked is no good. No good at all.”

            Especially if you beat them up… ha ha ha…

            (Tbh, it was in a bit of RPing with my brother. I don’t really remember how or even if they escaped.)

            (lol)

            *Flaz laughing so hard*   “Oh boy, that’s funny right there.”

            Yeah, sorry about her! She’s a thief and all… uhm… I’d stay away from her if you’re rich…

            “It’s good. We’ll get it together eventually… I hope… somehow… maybe…”

            Kk! Hope ya do!

            “Phffff!”   *Flaz laughs*

            Ugh! She is so annoying…. maybe I should just kick her out of the interviewing place or smth

            Very interesting!! I’ve found a sample so i think I’m gonna read that when i get the time…

            (noice!)

              Lol yeah, no problem.

              I do like to set characters on the revenge path. If he were in a more… fantastical setting… I imagine he’d probably be more set on revenge in such a case too. I have other characters who’d kill their enemies/take revenge, but they…they’re another situation… XD

                lol! yeah! I should just realize that! Anyway!!!! I am glad I met your character! He was very fun to talk to!

                Most of my characters would probably go on a whole revenge arc… lol!

                      Anyone is welcome to question this character, I need to flesh him out more, since he’s new

                      He won’t admit it, but he has a secret identity as a figure called the Protector, so if you want to pry into the side of him instead of his average citizen act, feel free! For now, he’ll reply as his citizen self.

                      Quick description: Gabriel is tall, but I haven’t decided upon an exact height. He has pale skin, pale yellow eyes (that don’t glow), and reddish brown hair that is cut slightly unevenly and is slightly curly. He always wears a piece of gauze over a portion of his left jaw. early twenties in age. His build is athletic.

                      1. What is your full name?

                      “Gabriel Mai.”

                      2. What is the most important thing the average person should know about you?

                      Gabriel shrugs.

                      3. What is your body language right now? [Describe them in the interview, sitting/standing, fidgeting, etc.]

                      Gabriel is standing, body relaxed, but posture straight. His voice is eerily calm and lacks much emotion. His pale eyes and face also lack much emotion.

                      4. How would other people describe you?

                      “I believe some people have called me mysterious and ‘annoyingly calm.'”

                      5. Where do you live? What is your race/ethnicity?

                      “I live currently in the town of Sykes.”

                      6. What do you contribute to your world?

                      “Nothing really. I work for a baker named Steve. Sometimes I run odd jobs in the evening.”

                      7. What kind of struggles do you face in your everyday life?

                      Gabriel shrugs. “Not many.”

                      8. What motivates you?

                      “What motivates anybody?”

                      I’m also gonna do Loopy’s general questions as well

                      What’s one place you’ve never been to, but have always wanted to visit?

                      “Anywhere not on this island.”

                      What is something you dislike about yourself?

                      “Such things are foolishness.”

                      Do you have a favorite toy from your childhood?

                      “That is foolishness too.” His voice remains the same tone as it has the entire time, as if he cares for nothing, yet there is some quick and strange flicker of emotion in his face, showing in his eyes for only a second before it is gone.

                      What kind of clothes/ outfits do you like to wear every day?

                      “As long as it isn’t expensive and won’t rip easy, I’ll wear it.”

                        Answering Kefa’s questions now:

                        Ayla

                        Do you have any family or friends?

                        Yes. I have four grandparents, two parents, one annoying brother, and some friends.

                        Are you described as a villain or a hero (or just a good or a bad person)?

                        Generally just a nut.

                        How would you react to these different scenarios:

                        Your friend was killed

                        Cry.

                        You were kidnapped

                        Attempt to get the villain who kidnapped me to monologue about his great deeds while I await rescue. If he’s smart, I’ll just try to stab him with my pencil.

                        Your plane crashed and you woke up on an island

                        Explore and try to find food like Robinson Crusoe, the Swiss Family Robinson, or that one girl from Island of the Blue Dolphins!

                        Your friend is getting married

                        I’d probably be a bridesmaid, and I’d try to catch the bouquet so I can be married next!

                        You just defeated your enemy

                        I don’t have any real enemies, but once I dumped an entire bucket of water on my brother Josh from a window. I told everyone I knew about it.

                        And finally, you get reunited with someone you had lost a long time ago

                        HUGS! And then I’d demand an explanation, and then ask if they brought me a souvenir!

                        If you could fix one mistake you’ve made, what would that mistake be? How would you fix it?

                        I once smacked a Kroger employee with a stick and knocked him into a shelf, which then dumped spices everywhere. I’d been pretending to dramatically fight something. It’s one of my most embarrassing moments, but pretty funny too. I should have helped clean up, but I just ran. In my defense, I was only ten, but still.

                        What is your favorite memory?

                        I don’t know. I have a lot of good memories. *snickers* Dumping that water on my brother is pretty close though.

                        What is the worst thing you have done?

                        I almost burned down the house once by microwaving a grape.

                        Celarent

                        Do you have any family or friends?

                        Don’t have them; don’t need them.

                        Are you described as a villain or a hero (or just a good or a bad person)?

                        Oh, I’m terrible. I’m the best thief in Laerylia.

                        How would you react to these different scenarios:

                        Your friend was killed

                        Check his pockets for loose change.

                        You were kidnapped

                        Steal the key and escape. Maybe pick the lock. Whichever I feel like.

                        Your plane crashed and you woke up on an island

                        What’s a plane?

                        Your friend is getting married

                        No friends, but I’d crash a wedding to eat cake!

                        You just defeated your enemy

                        Steal cake for celebration!

                        And finally, you get reunited with someone you had lost a long time ago

                        Look, if I bothered to lose someone, they better stay lost.

                        If you could fix one mistake you’ve made, what would that mistake be? How would you fix it?

                        I almost did manage to crash a wedding and steal the cake, but I was discovered. I could have disguised myself better.

                        What is your favorite memory?

                        Robbing a bakery and eating cake!

                        What is the worst thing you have done?

                        Ha, that’s a looooong list.

                        Vyette

                        Do you have any family or friends?

                        I have a father. Most of the other people I know are either acquaintances or suitors.

                        Are you described as a villain or a hero (or just a good or a bad person)?

                        I am fabulous, and the newspapers say as much.

                        How would you react to these different scenarios: Your friend was killed

                        I would attend the funeral, and then wear mourning.

                        You were kidnapped

                        Await rescue, unless the kidnappers attempted violence, in which case I would kill them. I am excellent at weaponry, but fights are so messy.

                        Your plane crashed and you woke up on an island

                        Pardon? I am not sure what a plane is.

                        Your friend is getting married

                        I would be excited. I love parties.

                        You just defeated your enemy

                        I do not have many enemies to defeat, only people I despise.

                        And finally, you get reunited with someone you had lost a long time ago

                        Why did they leave?

                        If you could fix one mistake you’ve made, what would that mistake be? How would you fix it?

                        Once I wore mismatched shoes to a party. I almost died of humiliation. The papers talked about it for weeks.

                        What is your favorite memory?

                        Wandering in the garden.

                        What is the worst thing you have done?

                        I have not done many horrible deeds.

                          heh, heh. I’m back after a considerable amount of time, as usual.


                          @theducktator

                          Who is your favorite person?

                          “The man who took all my photographs. I really appreciate them.”

                          Why do you always wear a mask?

                          [Stares at the interviewer for a long time until they get the gist] “…Cosmetics.”


                          @the_lost-journal

                          1. Do you have any family or friends?

                          “I have family, and my friends are often temporary coworkers. I don’t have any consistent, long-term friends, other than Mayte – and that’s a family friend, so not even outside the family sphere.”

                          2. Are you described as a villain or hero (or just a good or a bad person)?

                          “I have been given names like [redacted swear] or [redacted swear]. Those are bad here too, right? …Hm. But over the course of my life, I have also been called pidge, sunshine, and snugglebug. [She leans forward, her hint that she’s offering good humor] So it’s hard to say what people think of me because I get mixed messages.”

                          3. How would you react to these different scenarios:

                          [Brings in her expressionless stare] “As my son often says – I am locked in.”

                          a. Your friend was killed
                          b. You were kidnapped
                          c. Your plane crashed and you woke up on an island
                          d. Your friend is getting married
                          e. You just defeated your enemy
                          f. And finally, you get reunited with someone you had lost a long time ago

                          “Those all seem like scenarios where it would be appropriate to cry. Why am I given these kinds of questions? You should give me a list of these questions so I can decide which ones I like.”

                          4. If you could fix one mistake you’ve made, what would that mistake be? How would you fix it?

                          “I would not change mistakes from the past because logically it would change future events.”

                          5. What is your favorite memory?

                          [Imagines the memory and experiences it behind her mask without describing anything] [Waves away the question]

                          6. What is the worst thing you have done?

                          “I was an irresponsible teenager and so many things escalated unnecessarily.”

                                So you aren’t ugly. You just don’t care for my questions. *raises eyebrow* I shall have to guess. Scared of COVID? Hiding from the police? Part of a circus?

                                Did you agree to go out with any of these random strangers? Are you married? If you were a vegetable, what vegetable would you be and why?

                                  (Going back to your character)

                                  My father and I have had multiple pitched arguments about topics that I do not recall, but marriage is the only continuing one at the moment. I am however, a bit concerned about several of his affairs that are potentially traitorous and scandalous, but I fear what he would do if he learned that I knew about this.

                                  What kind of scandals? How did you find out about them? What is your opinion of other kingdoms/countries?

                                  So you aren’t ugly. You just don’t care for my questions. *raises eyebrow*

                                  [Nods]

                                  I shall have to guess. Scared of COVID? Hiding from the police? Part of a circus?

                                  [Affectionate at the end] “I don’t know what that is, sort of, and – have you seen my boys? I am surrounded by little dumb carnies.”

                                  Did you agree to go out with any of these random strangers?

                                  “Not often. But I have been set up before – better than a bent car, they say. And you can’t easily get out of that.”

                                  Are you married?

                                  “I like to keep those kinds of relationships private.”

                                  If you were a vegetable, what vegetable would you be and why?

                                  “Mm, another irrelevant question. At least I’m good at answering them. Rhubarb.”
