I know no one is going to respond to this, this late and all, but here are some questions for everyone!
- Do you have any family or friends?
- Are you described as a villain or a hero (or just a good or a bad person)?
- How would you react to these different scenarios:
- Your friend was killed
- You were kidnapped
- Your plane crashed and you woke up on an island
- Your friend is getting married
- You just defeated your enemy
- And finally, you get reunited with someone you had lost a long time ago
- If you could fix one mistake you’ve made, what would that mistake be? How would you fix it?
- What is your favorite memory?
- What is the worst thing you have done?

So I am not. But I feel like these lyrics right now: (minus the pill part)
“I don’t feel a single thing
Have the pills done too much?
Haven’t caught up with my friends in weeks
And now we’re out of touch
I’ve been driving in L.A.
And the world, it feels too big
Like a floating ball that’s bound to break
Snap my psyche like a twig
And I just wanna see if you feel the same as me
Do you ever get a little bit tired of life?
Like you’re not really happy, but you don’t wanna die
Like you’re hanging by a thread, but you gotta survive
‘Cause you gotta survive
Like your body’s in the room, but you’re not really there
Like you have empathy inside, but you don’t really care
Like you’re fresh out of love, but it’s been in the air
Am I past repair?
A little bit tired of trying to care when I don’t
A little bit tired of quick repairs to cope
A little bit tired of sinking, there’s water in my boat
I’m barely breathing, trying to stay afloat
So, I’ve got these quick repairs to cope
Guess I’m just broken and broke
The prescription’s on its way
With a name I can’t pronounce
And the dose I gotta take
Boy, I wish that I could count
‘Cause I just want to see if this could make me happy

Huntress: Well……We used to be mercenaries. Hired guns. We were supposed to guard our employer’s mine in an asteroid belt from his brother’s team, but it turns out it was all a ruse and the only reason we were fighting was because a sneaky Sunekite provoked the battle as revenge for the brothers’ father killing her family or some nonsense like that.
Sniper: Actually, for the first few battles, she and I were enemies. I first saw ‘er through my rifle’s scope.
Huntress: Yeah, and I first met you when I stabbed you in the stomach as retaliation for tryna blow my head off. *she turns to a rather startled Leander* But that part of our lives is long over, so don’t worry. Sniper and I have jobs at a national park now, and Scout….What job do you have, anyway?
Scout: Well, mostly I’m taking care of my kids, but I’ve been finding work around the neighborhood for when the money I got from winning a legal case several years ago starts running out.
W-wow! That is a lot…
Leander: “What does that even mean?”
uhm… so you two met by trying to murder each other…? How… romantic?
Leander: “Kinda reminds me of how I met Rapha! She had to visit the jungle, and I was out hunting! And she was all alone, so I decided to hunt her! And she eventually had a panic attack as I hunted her, and so I decided that I had enough when she fell in a ditch and twisted her ankle. So I brought her back to my village, nursed her back to health! And we fell in love!”
I forgot you did that…
Sniper: *sighs and avoids their eyes* There’s a lot.
Oh… sorry.
Huntress: HA!
Scout: Hmph.
*Huntress remembers that Scout is still holding Squiggle and tries to get him back*
Leander: “Hey! I am nothing like them!”
You still sleep with a stuffed animal… like Huntress. And you are wayyyyy too prideful!”
Leander: “That is just two things!”
I bet there is more. Like I wonder if either Huntress or Scout have gone hunting, or maybe they have family issues. Hey, have either of you killed someone?
Leander: “IT WAS AN ACCIDENT! I SWEAR!”
Plus… WAIT WHAT?! You killed someone?! Oh yeah… in that one war…
Leander: “Yeah… yeah… it was in the war… nothing else.”
Oh yeah… you killed that one Fuch.
If you reach for the stars, you get the stars. But if you reach for heaven you get the stars with it
Huntress: Well, thanks to our jobs, we’ve been to a lot of places….. I guess I’ve always wanted to just travel the galaxy without having to worry about someone being after us. Or us being after someone. I don’t really care where it is.
What exactly IS your job?
Scout: Do I have anything to dislike?
Huntress: You’re a bit cocky sometimes.
Scout: Yeah, and you get emotionally attached to literally anything.
Sniper: They asked for what ya dislike about yerself, not yer twin!
Wow, Scout is a lot like Leander -_- ANYWAY! Sniper, what is something YOU dislike about yourself?
Sniper: *snickers* Huntress’s got a favorite toy now.
Scout: Yeah, the crocodile! Show ’em, Jaylen!
Huntress: What makes you think I have him with me???
Scout: You have him with you whenever you can. Where’s your satchel at, he’s probably in there–
Huntress: Hey!!
(a scuffle ensues, but Scout manages to find and triumphantly hold up the prized possession: a small, green and brown stuffed crocodile named Squiggle.)
How cute… Huntress… you are also like Leander… Maybe if you two were mashed together you’d make him?
If you reach for the stars, you get the stars. But if you reach for heaven you get the stars with it
Huntress: Huh. Like an uppercase B. If only Medic were here, then you could talk to him.
“Yeah… I only wish I could remember the letter’s name… I think it is called an…. eset… it looks like this.” Leader grabs a pen and paper and draws the letter. “See?” a little ‘ẞ’ lays on the paper.
Sniper: Actually, I remember hearin’ much the same thing about my planet’s moon, Taz. Never ‘eard of it being alive, but there was somethin’ about its pull on Australis stabilizin’ the water so it doesn’t go stagnant and kill all the fish. It’s also responsible for keepin’ the rings in line.
“Exactly! How could something that keeps a ring crashing into a planet not be alive…?” Leander tries to convince them that moons are alive.
If you reach for the stars, you get the stars. But if you reach for heaven you get the stars with it
Leander: “Oh! Cool! More questions!” Leander smiles.
Rapha: “Perhaps we could do them together?” Rapha suggests.
Celestia: “That would be quite fun. Yes, I would do that.” Celestia sat up straight.
What’s one place you’ve never been to, but have always wanted to visit?
Rapha: “I believe I could say this for all three of us, but… we have never been outside the walls of the mountains… so just anywhere that isn’t Kaimor…” Rapha says sadly.
Leander: “Yeah… since Rapha and I aren’t human, we can’t leave Kaimor… and Celestia-”
Celestia: “I am not official royalty. So I am not allowed to leave. But imagine if I could! The wealth I would-” *Celestia clears her throat* “I mean, the amount of people I could meet would be so nice…”
What is something you dislike about yourself?
Leander: “Nothing.” Leander smirks proudly.
Celestia: “I am perfect.” Celestia agrees with Leander… in a way?
Rapha: “Well, if you two won’t say something, I’ll say something for you. Leander is too cocky and prideful… Celestia… she lies too much.”
Celestia: “I DO NOT!!!… I mean… Ahem… excuse me.” Celestia giggles. “I mean, I never lie!”
Rapha: “I would say I need more trust in others…”
Do you have a favorite toy from your childhood?
Celestia: “Toys…” Celestia sneers. “I don’t care for them.”
Leander: “Yeah! I got this stuff lamb that I loved! I still sleep with it every night and I-… I said too much… huh?” Leander chuckles.
Rapha: “I wasn’t allowed to have toys…”
What kind of clothes/ outfits do you like to wear every day?
Celestia: “Only the most expensive things! I have this necklace, see? And I wear this dark purple dress that costed a fortune! This rose design was hand stitched! And see these white laces? Along with the black outline? I bet it costs more than you!” Celestia says proudly. “And believe me, I only have the best people do these braids!” Celestia shows the braids on the back of her head.
Leander: “Eh… I kinda just wear whatever flexible clothes I have in my closet.”
Rapha: “I wear the traditional waterproof robes of the Arraia! They are amazing! They are made from this one plant that doesn’t suck up water! And they are lovely! They are dyed this reddish brown! It is lovely and covers me perfectly!” Rapha smiles.

Huntress: What are the others’ languages like?
*Leander is slowly losing is confidence, as these questions get more confusing* “What do you mean? They are like… ya know? Languages? I can really put them in a category. I guess they each have their own unique letters… and they are each unique to their country. Like German has weird letters, one looks like an uppercase B…” (ẞ)
Sniper: When did I say I wasn’t Australian…?
“Sorry… I am confused… you guys are talking like you have never been to earth… but at the same time you’re saying you are Australian. Never mind… I guess I just don’t understand the contradictions.” *Leander shakes his head in confusion, a frown is left on his face*
Scout: If Shawmut or any of the other moons I’ve been on are alive, I’ve never noticed it.
Huntress: Luna’s a pretty name for a moon.
“Hm… weird… I remember being taught that Luna sleeps each day, and in the night she awakes to use her silver light to lead people through the dark, and she also pulls the ocean so that it stays in motion… How can something that isn’t alive do so much?”
If you reach for the stars, you get the stars. But if you reach for heaven you get the stars with it
Leander eyes were filled with pure confusion. His mouth hung open as if they were speaking another language.
“What…?” He asked…. not knowing what to say.
Huntress: Eidechse….That sounds like a Drachen word, kinda. It’s got the same harshness to it. I wonder if Medic’s ever heard it.
“Uh! Yeah! I believe it is German! The main people we have living here are Germans, French, Brazilian, and Portuguese. They uh… we all speak Latin…”
Huntress: Your pronunciation sounds close enough to me! I believe it also means “catlike.” It’s in an old extinct language. Come to think of it, your Latin language is probably similar, since I could’ve sworn I heard something similar to “Pardalis” in scientific names before.
“Hm… Well… that is interesting…”
Scout: Earth? Like, as in the ground?
Sniper: Never ‘eard of it.
Huntress: Everyone where you come from is all on one planet? That’s a little weird. Is there no space travel? How many people are there? There are billions in our galaxy, and I don’t think they’d be able to fit on one planet. How many moons does Earth have? Sniper and I currently live on Australis, which has one moon, Taz. It’s covered with forests. The planet also has a ring system that used to be mined for valuable ores, but now most of the ore’s gone and it’s just empty rocks.
Scout: And I live on Shawmut, which is a moon itself, of the planet Lygon.
“N-no… Earth… as in the planet. How have y0u never heard of earth? Aren’t you Australian…? Come to think of it… the animal hybrids only live in Kaimor… they are extinct everywhere else in the world… And only people of royalty who are humans may leave the island. And yes, we all are on one planet. But most of the world… I not all of the world doesn’t know that our species exists. And space travel…? Well… I know little about the outside world… I believe that there are things called… rocklets…? I think.. maybe just rocks? The king has told me about them. But they are pretty dangerous. And apparently people have been on the moon… but I don’t get how that works… because the moon is so far away! And plus isn’t it alive? That is what I am taught! So is the sun!” Leander tries to recall all that he has been told about the outside world, but he knows very little. “Uh… just one moon. It is called Luna… we believe it is living and breathing… but I think that is just Kaimorian culture.” Leader shrugs. “But aren’t all moons alive…? Not just Luna? This is a little weird…” Leader looks at each of them… his eyes searching for any sign of deception.

Leander looks up from the interview. “Huh? Oh! Hey!…” Leander listens to the questions… not knowing how to respond.
Huntress: You remind me of my best friend. He’s got catlike ears and a tail just like yours. You said you’re a…Pardalis? That’s interesting….Where I come from, they’re called Ailurids, but I could see why different regions of the galaxy would have different names. What planet are you from?
“Uhm… Well yes. I am a Paradalis! And I am proud to be so! And your features remind me of the Eidechse! They are lizard like people. And they have pretty similar eyes to ours. Plus they have weird tongues too.” Leander said, sticking out his own tongue and pointing at it…. for some reason??? “But… Aliurids…? Am I saying that right? That’s cool… I guess… What does it mean? I know that Paradalis is latin for leopard!” Leander said, getting a little more excited as he talked. “So where do you come from? And what do you mean by… ‘different galaxy’… That’s a little weird… And what planet am I from…? Well… earth… isn’t everybody…?” Leander tilted his head in confusion.

Really?! Of course you can!!!
If you reach for the stars, you get the stars. But if you reach for heaven you get the stars with it
idc if I have done this three times already, it is just fun to do!!!!! I am gonna do Prince Leander!!!!
1. What is your full name?
Prince Leander will be enough. Unless, if you want me to say my full name. *Leander smirks.*
2. What is the most important thing the average person should know about you?
“I am prince over an entire race, and that I don’t want to be treated any different. I don’t want special attention, I don’t want servants cleaning my palace, and knights guarding my every move. I just want to be treated as if I am a normal adult.” *Leander shrugs.* “That is why I live in a humble little jungle hut like the rest of my people! And I hunt for my own food, and that kind of stuff.” *Leander shrugs again* I didn’t choose to be the prince, so I am not gonna live my life like that. But unfortunately I still have the responsibility of being one.” *Leander sighs*
3. What is your body language right now? [Describe them in the interview, sitting/standing, fidgeting, etc.]
*Leander is siting back in his chair, and sometimes he darts his eyes around. His tail sometimes flicks around. He also picks through his teeth with his fingernail.*
4. How would other people describe you?
“Well, the young female of my domain call me handsome, while the young males call me annoying. The elders and grown ones think I am annoying too, and not fit for prince. But my true love says that I am perfect just the way I am, and I stick to what she says!” *Leander chuckles.*
5. Where do you live? What is your race/ethnicity?
“I am a Paradalis! And I am from South America. Paradalis are these cat like people! They got cat eyes, ears, tails, and abilities. See?” *Leader points to his different cat like features* “Oh yeah! I am from Kaimor!”
6. What do you contribute to your world?
“I guess ruling my people, and making sure they don’t kill everything! I also hold the charm of the jungle and all, but that is just some little trinket or something!”
7. What kind of struggles do you face in your everyday life?
“Fallen… gosh! I can’t stand fallen! The jungle is CRAWLING with them! Apparently some Kaimorian scientists did a survey or whatever, and it turns out the large majority of fallen are Paradalis!!! Who would have thought so many Paradalis would want to become a twisted animal!… Hopefully that isn’t foreshadowing anything…” *Leander chuckles nervously*
8. What motivates you?
My one true love! Rapha! Princess Rapha! We are gonna get married one day, and then we’ll produce an heir! And finally my people will see that I am not a worthless waste of space!” *Tears came to Leaders eyes.* “My brother is wrong! I am not a waste of oxygen! I will prove him wrong! And when I do! I’ll… I’lll spit on his grave!…” Leader looked away. “B-but… I don’t thunk Rapha would approve of that…”

Did this topic die…? 🙁 I DOUBT IT!!!!
If you reach for the stars, you get the stars. But if you reach for heaven you get the stars with it
LOL! ikr… (in a nerdy voice >) That is, literally me!
If you reach for the stars, you get the stars. But if you reach for heaven you get the stars with it
Hello! I was told to do this, and I was also told that you were trustworthy and wouldn’t spill any of my secrets! So I can be honest!
1. What is your full name?
Celestia Grace Kaimor. I may not be BLOOD related to the Kaimor family, but I was adopted… Well… Kind of. I used to be a thief, but then I did a job where I had to work for the kings brother, I was originally going to steal this necklace for this guy. But I loved the royal family so much, that I ditched the mission all together! And now King Emmanuel calls me his niece. *Celestia looks away.* But I would betray them if I was paid enough money.
2. What is the most important thing the average person should know about you?
Nothing. Anyone who is “Average” should know nothing about me! They are poor, I am rich, they are nothing, I am everything! They are below me! Of course, when I am around the royal families, I act as if I care deeply for the common folk. If I am being honest… I am disgusted by all of them. They are all just the dirt under the heel of my shoe. I stomp on them like bugs. *Celestia smirked* They hate me, and I hate them! But they can do nothing about it, I am in the royal family now, and they must treat me like a princess! I LOVE IT!
3. What is your body language right now? [Describe them in the interview, sitting/standing, fidgeting, etc.]
Celestia is sitting with proper posture, but every once in a while she’ll slump down, or pick ear wax out of her ear, or lean against something. She sometimes even rolls her eyes when talking about something. As if she fakes manners, but doesn’t actually have the,
4. How would other people describe you?
Well… other people of importance are very fond of me! They love me! They would say I am hard working, kind, respectful to all, honest, and heavenly! *Celestia begins to laugh* But none of it is true! I am an excellent chess player, and as I said to someone earlier, I play them all like pawns! It is quite funny! They think I am helping them, they think I am dong it for their gain! They made me the Keepers royal advisor! And the Keepers trust me more than ever! But I am simply using them!
5. Where do you live? What is your race/ethnicity?
I am from the Kingdom of (blech) Kaimor… located on an island that belongs to South America. Our islands are left alone from the rest of the world. I am white, and with my background, my great great great great great great grandfather is from France, while my whatever amount of greats was also from France. They moved here and ever since then my family has been from here. But we have not stayed French. Oh! And I am the only current survivor of my family. All of my brothers and sisters are dead! Along with my grandparents, and parents! *Celestia smiles joyfully*
6. What do you contribute to your world?
I only contribute to myself! But if you wanted to ask fake me, I AdViSe tHe kEePeRs! *Celestia mocked*
7. What kind of struggles do you face in your everyday life?
Just trying to not get discovered! I wouldn’t want my whole life to fall away, that would not be nice! Would it? Of course, if someone were to pay me, I would leave that entire life.
8. What motivates you?
The basic thing to say is money… but I enjoy playing people too… But I am not a bad person! I have a sad story to tell! And it makes up for everything!… That story? It doesn’t exist. But I am okay with making one up!
