Questions Meme

As first posted here by Emely!:

1. Make a thread for yourself in this post, listing the characters you play and your own name.
2. Go find someone's thread to jump and ask them A QUESTION. The question can be anything, RP related is common, of course, but not necessary. Who do you want to app most? What does Character A think about Character B? What's your favorite flavor of icecream?
3. Answer all questions asked of you! Once you have answered, end your response with a question for the person who first questioned you. This is important to keep the discussion going and going.
4. This goes back and forth indefinitely until someone gets tired and can't reply anymore.
5. Have a lot of fun! ♥

Season 2 begins tomorrow, all, and there've been plenty of developments and new blood since the first round - get the words flowin', get to know/re-know some of your gamemates, and/or simply shoot the breeze~

What is it about Jacuzzi/Ennis (given the above question) do you like playing/the idea of playing?

Also, how would you recommend Magic Knight Rayearth to me? I am just incredibly curious to what this canon is, but I am scared of running into spoilers.

I love literally everything about playing Jacuzzi. Like I said up top with Matt where he seems very confident, Jacuzzi is the exact opposite SO IF IM AFRAID IM SAYING SOMETHING DUMB??? Jacuzzi can ICly freak out over it. It was a brilliant plan. But my favorite thing is how he can spend about 50 comments just saying nice things about someone. All he sees is people's good qualities, the things that they have the potential to achieve. The second it turns around on him, he can see nothing good in himself and I just find that interesting.

Ennis was just a lot of fun in the series. She's classy and polite, but she can also kick your ass if need be. She also has my favorite quality in all characters ever: when she comes to care about someone, she really cares about them and she seems just very loyal to those who are good to her. Her almost sacrifice toward the "end" of the series just left me at "yes. her. she is one of my favorites there should have been more of her." Also she strikes me as a little naive about some things and I like that. Also women in suits. Hot. Damn. Women in suits.

It's a little hard to explain because the entire second series is hinged on the spoilers from the end of the first. But... I guess I'd sell it to you based on the fact that there are magical girls, giant robot gods, and a talking marshmallow. It's one of CLAMP's earlier works and the one that really brought them fame. They pretty much abandoned it with the success of Cardcaptor Sakura and Chobits, but it has one of the best stories and plot twists in the CLAMP collection, imo. All three main girls experience a lot of growth and there are dire consequences for their actions. Plus Fuu is really cute and does a lot of stupid things but I'm just biased.

How the hell do you balance the amount of CR Isaac and Miria have?

[originaloddcouple]

I'll def give it a shot! (Also Ennis is so great ugh i love her)

WELL, the thing about Isaac and Miria is, as you know, they love everyone. They are everyone's pals, its ridiculous. In what I could read of the light novels? Isaac befriends Ladd Russo. HAVE YOU HEARD OF THIS? IT REALLY THROWS ME FOR A LOOP. So they really have no choice but to befriend all the people.

SO BALANCING CR IS INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT, but it usually just defaults to "HEY BUDDY, HOW YOU DOING? WE CARE ABOUT YOU BUDDY! WE'LL THROW OURSELVES IN FRONT OF THIS TRUCK IF IT'LL MAKE YOU FEEL BETTER" and so on.

I'm also of the opinion that so far? The Dians care about everyone but aren't really close with everyone. They've got a close group of people they consider besties that is basically made up of... Jacuzzi, Aquaman/Arthur, Cinderella/Rarity, and probably Kanti/Kanaya. Everyone else is a regular pal, although a couple people like Rakka and Czes/Ben are probably gonna be on the fast track to besties soon. I kinda want to improve that, but we'll have to see what progresses.

Finally, I realized pretty quickly that keeping track of everyone the Dians liked? WAS GONNA BE A CHALLENGE. So I ended up making a thread tracking post to keep together what was said to specific people, just by going to whatever thread it was. I'm probably gonna have to cut down the threads with people that dropped BECAUSE GOOD GOD THE DIANS TALK SO MUCH.

TL;DR? It's very very very hard, but I try to keep a system together.

So, what made you app to Save The Earth?

[pheromonecoffee]

Aw yay Jacuzzi somehow made the list. Also mega props to you my friend. I have trouble with Matt's and he doesn't have near as much.

It was kind of a few things. My old game was ending, my real life was literal shit at the time and I needed a distraction AND ALL MY FRIENDS WERE JOINING AND NO ONE INVITED ME SO I SAID FINE I'LL JOIN EVEN THOUGH YOU DIDN'T INVITE ME NOW YOU HAVE TO DEAL WITH ME MORE (nottalking). I'm an adult.

If you didn't play Isaac/Miria, who would you play from Baccano?

[originaloddcouple]

Ah, the choices. A horrible concept, choice. Sure, you pick one choice that you think is right for you and everything seems happy dandy. But then you're left forever wondering what that other choice could have been like. The days tick tick tick by and every hour on the hour you wonder "should I have done this? What would happen if I had taken the road less traveled?" The years go on and the wonder and curiosity stays with you forever and ever AND EVER AND EVER! But there's nothing you can do but live with the ever present curiosity and passion that exists behind the choice you make! With each choice the passion builds and builds until I JUST CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE! I WISH I COULD MAKE ALL THE CHOICES FOREVER, TO EXPERIENCE ALL OF LIFE'S WONDEROUS PATHS WITH ALL THE TIME THIS BEAUTIFUL, AMAZING SPECTACULAR WORLD HAS TO OFFER! OH, WHAT A WORLD WHERE ALL THESE OPTIONS CAN'T SIMPLY BE LAID OUT IN FRONT OF ME! IT FILLS ME WITH SUCH AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF DESIRE AND RAGE BEYOND WHAT MY SIMPLE MIND IS COMPREHENDING!

In case it wasn't clear, Graham Specter, no question. Its just coming up with rants like that that I have trouble with. I imagine I'd get burned out very quickly.

Who else would you play from Persona if you had to?

[pheromonecoffee]

The question, my friend is who wouldn't I play from Persona. I have also played Aigis, Ken Amada, Fuuka Yamagishi and Chie Satonaka (from 4). If I had to choose just one at the moment, it'd be Chie though.

Who is your favorite character of all time?

[originaloddcouple]

Isaac and Miria are clearly one person and its impossible to believe otherwise so THEY are my favorite. They just have so much HOPE AND LOVE AND AMAZINGESS I can't stand it.

And your own?

[pheromonecoffee]

Oh damn taste of my own medicine. I say Fuu as a favorite only because I've loved her nine years and I show no signs of stopping. But if I am pretending to be a cultured individual, I'm actually really really fond of Honour, from Robin McKinley's Beauty.

In a zombie apocalypse, what is your weapon of choice?

[originaloddcouple]

A diplomacy book. With enough time and effort, I believe I can bridge the broken bonds between zombie and man. Soon, they can realize that they aren't so different after all. With this new friendship, we can all rebuild society together.

Aka, I always die first in a zombie apocalypse.

Who'd win in a fight: caveman or astronaut?

[pheromonecoffee]

Caveman.

What is the most underrated piece of fiction that you love?
