Yilla: she’d do it without really thinking, as its just her principal to speak up against things she sees as unjust or simply not productive. Courageous: it would take a lot and he would need to feel a lot of passion and/or anger. High-Praise would have to feel a lot of compassion and agree that the person being defended was in the…[Read more]

@valtmy

I imagine Yilla had in mind a quiet life, getting married, having children and doing all the other things expected of her. Courageous wasn’t imagining anything other than Not King. High-Praise was going for flattery, admiration from all the world and a rather sugary sweet romance.

None of them really got what they wanted.

Do your…[Read more]

@valtmy

Who would your character trust with their deepest secret?

@valtmy

Of course they would 😛

High-Praise’s father is dead and she never knew him, but she loves her mother’s wisdom. The thing she hates would be the fact that her mother sold her off as a child bride. Which would probably be a relationship dampener for anyone.

Yilla loves her father and stepmother’s love for each other and their family. She…[Read more]

@valtmy

😀 Yilla would be one of those super practical people whose email address is YillaGaegonal. Courageous would stay well away from the internet and High-Praise would go with TheMostAwesomeQueen or something like that.

What is your characters favourite type of chocolate?

@valtmy

What would your characters be like if they had made a different decision at a major turning point in their lives?

@valtmy

Oh, interesting. I think Yilla would fear losing her family the most, as much of what she does is to protect them. I think Courageous fears losing just about everything so its hard to say what he fears most. High-Praise would start off fearing losing her position and privilege and finishes off fearing losing her children.

@valtmy

Ensuring it sounds even more ominous.

Ah, yes. Where would your character like to be in five years?

@valtmy

I don’t imagine so. Revolutionaries don’t tend to put their disposed kings in luxury prisons.

Well, its true that I have a general abhorrence for royalty, but he sounds quite interesting, and I do admire the fact that he kicks his brothers onto the street.

I’m not sure if I should admire that, but I do.

The question was open to…[Read more]

@valtmy

A relaxing soak with your phone?

Unfortunately for Courageous, he ends up as a homeless commoner anyway. Though he isn’t technically homeless, since he at least gets to live in prison.

I like this character of yours, though it seems like you can’t win with him.

Ah, sorry. I was distracted by suggested wordcounts for YA, and by w…[Read more]

@valtmy

But I’m not sure I see the point of going to the pool if you’re going to spend all your time on the net 😛

Well, we could argue about that till the cows come home. But at least homeless commoners don’t have to make royal addresses 😀

@jenwriter17

WHAT????

Bye 🙂

@valtmy

Ooh, a swim sounds lovely. I haven’t been swimming in ages.

Being king keeps Courageous up at night. I don’t know what would keep Yilla up at night but it would have to be something very, very terrible. Homesickness and/or loneliness would keep High-Praise awake.

Shu Juqing sounds quite interesting. And I…[Read more]

@seekjustice @valtmy

I’m going to have to leave now. I am super tired and my brothers wanted to watch a movie before we go to bed. I might not really be on for a while, because I’ll be pretty busy with school next week and my family’s taking a trip. But I’ll be on November 1st! 😀

Bye! The character questioning was fun. 😉

@seekjustice Oh, yes I remember that from your blog post. 🙂 I watched the first LoTR movie…I liked the soundtrack, not the movie 😛  *shields self from attacking LoTR fans*

@jenwriter17

I’ve heard we’re the only country that eats the animals on its coat of arms, seeing as we also eat emu on occasion. I’m not sure if that’s true or not, but seeing as Britain has a unicorn and lion on their coat of arms, I believe it 😉

Hmm…I think I did this in my blog post the other day. Courageous would be “Courageous” because I…[Read more]

@seekjustice hmm, I learn something new every day 😀

we’ve got some hard questions tonight (or, today, or whatever time it is for you Seekjustice 😉 )

Rin probably just remembers her parents loving on her (she was an only child); Jax remembers always living in hiding and having to grow up in that life; Uma’s had her memory wiped, so she d…[Read more]

@valtmy

I was just thinking that Shu Juqing sounded quite nice. Maybe I misinterpreted everything 😛

@jenwriter17

It’s a great traditional delicacy and was particularly popular before the colonisation

@valtmy

I don’t know if Yilla is charismatic enough to do really well at running fot president, but if she did she’d be a great president. Courageous and High-Praise wouldn’t get far at all, which is unfortunate, seeing as they actually are…[Read more]

@valtmy

Ooh, that’s a hard one too…

If Rin ran for president, she would try her best, cuz that’s just what she does with most things. But actually being president, she’d probably miss her normal life too much. Jax would be a good level-headed person, but he’s pretty soft-spoken and might get overwhelmed with all the responsibilities. Vega and…[Read more]
