Myeongwol would use her embroidery needle. I think you already know that. 😛

@valtmy @rochellaine

Oh, and my question.

…

It’s becoming difficult to think of questions I haven’t asked before.

If they were attacked, what would they immediately use for a weapon?

@valtmy

Courageous would probably go for those classical German fellows, like Bach and Mozart. I can imagine High-Praise listening to Celtic laments. Yilla would like traditional music of all sorts.

@seekjustice I see. 🙂

CDs/CD players (I feel you can’t have one without the other)

I find your logic quite hilarious, for some reason, but I do agree with you.  It’s probably the inevitability of your statement that makes it funny. 😛

@valtmy My characters would likely all prefer classic style Jewish music/songs, such as Hava Nagila, because it…[Read more]

@rochellaine

Myeongwol would want a television. Or a computer with Internet access so that she can watch romance dramas without having to sneak out. She would be one of those big K-drama and K-pop fans.

Speaking of K-pop… What music would your characters listen to while rocking out on iTunes/Spotify/whatever music channel you use?

@seekjustice

@rochellaine

Oh, he is shy. But one can’t stammer when they sing and a lot of people don’t stammer when they act either. So he’d feel normal. No one ever said he had to actually perform. And even then, most of his insecurities come from his stammer. 😀

It just popped into my head that High-Praise would like an electric toaster. Yilla would like…[Read more]

@valtmy Haha, yeah, I guess so.  But I was meaning modern musicals, and you answered for that, so it works. 😉

At this point, I think it would be Kashti, whom you all have met only very briefly.  He would show no mercy. 😛

@seekjustice You may steal it if you wish. 😛 I have no idea where I first heard it.  Probably in some old historical fi…[Read more]

@valtmy that sounds like an interesting game! It reminds me a little of a game I used to play which used the song “King of Kings”, where there would be two circles of people holding hands, and one circle would sing “King of kings and lord of lords” while the other circle had to sing “Jesus, prince of peace” at the same time, getting faster and…[Read more]

@seekjustice

There is a traditional Korean game, Ganggangsullae, that is played exclusively by women that I think Myeongwol might like since it involves song and dance. It involves holding each other’s hands to make a circle. The players would then start rotating. The lead singer would then sing a line of the song and everyone sings the refrain.…[Read more]

@valtmy

Yilla, most definitely.

What was their favourite childhood toy or game?

@rochellaine

Remembrance is a really pretty name 😀 I might steal it for some character some day!

😛 Such a very Rochellaine question!

I honestly can’t imagine Yilla being in a musical at all, but if she were to be, she’d probably be in A Tale of Two Cities or Les Miserables. High-Praise would have a lot of fun in a musical, though I don’t thi…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I’m sure you realise how strange this question to be asking my characters in QOD since many of them do exactly that for a living, right? Granted, drama is not the same as musicals but you know what I mean.

Myeongwol will have great versatility as an actress so I would like to have her as an Eliza in My Fair Lady where she will have…[Read more]

@valtmy 😛 Sorry.  Here’s one. @seekjustice

If your character were to star in a musical, which one would it be? (Sorry, Valtmy, I’m not sure how many musicals you’ve seen.  But I think you’ve seen a few, right?)

@valtmy 😛 Sorry.  Here’s one.

If your character were to star in a musical, which one would it be? (Sorry, Valtmy, I’m not sure how many musicals you’ve seen.  But I think you’ve seen a few, right?)

@rochellaine

It’s your turn to ask a question.

It seems that both you and @seekjustice are rather forgetful today. 😛

@valtmy I would probably choose Yishay.  After all, he’s part of a gang-ish group, so he’d know how to get around in tough places and be able to get info from “unsavory characters”. 😛

@seekjustice I think Bathshua would probably be called Vanity (because her life seemed full before, but her father’s vanity – emptiness – consumed it, and also…[Read more]

@seekjustice

That’s true. There is a limit to the poetic potential of the English language to make such names acceptable. Let me give you an example of a Korean name: Sunja.

This name is name out of two characters in the Korean language: ‘Sun’ – meaning to obey, submit and go along with and ‘Ja’ – meaning child. Together, it means an obedient…[Read more]

@valtmy

some of those names are incredibly cruel. Especially the ones meant to mark out illegitimate children. It’s most definitely a good thing that only the good ones (Joy, Faith, Grace) remain with us now 😛

@seekjustice

How can it be my turn when you just answered a question that I posed? 😛

My, that’s a hard question. I’ve searched through some Puritan names but given how far removed in time and space ancient Korea is from the Puritans, I can’t imagine Myeongwol having any of those names. Granted, some of the names of the characters do directly…[Read more]

@valtmy

I thought it was your turn. Granted, I am slightly confused today, as has been established already.

Based on the scene I just wrote, here’s a question. If you’re character was to be given a “Puritan” name (such as Joy, Lament, Peace, Faith, etc) what would it be? would it contrast or fit their personalities?
