veil ask meme 4 / a solo. word count: 557 ( not including questions ).
sam checks what he’s wearing before he goes live to make sure nothing he’s got is incriminating. a knitted sweater and a pair of sweatpants -- he’s fine, no inappropriate slogans or images in sight. q & a time!
what is one thing you never leave the house without?
this is a hard question for sam. he doesn’t carry a bag or anything of the sort, so his usual items are limited to what he can stuff in his pockets. “uh ... my keys, probably? and my phone. uh, and my wallet. wait, but that’s three things.” sam stroked his chin. “i guess my wallet is probably most important.” he stuffs his hand into his pocket and pulls it out. it’s a green leather thing, ratty around the edges from years of use.
what is your favorite article of clothing?
“i got a new jacket!” sam scrambles out of frame for a second to cross his room. he grabs the jacket off the hook on the back of his door and jumps back in front of the camera. he holds up the jacket by the shoulders, smiling eyes peeking out from above it.
if you could splurge on one new piece of clothing, what would it be and why?
“i have a lot of sh ... things saved to buy.” the hardest part of speaking with fans like this is censoring his language. he’s seen a good few compilations of him almost swearing. for all of the shit he pulls, this is what he gets given out to by his manager for the most. he reminds himself to watch his mouth as he scrolls through the things he’s screenshotted to buy. “i think my top choice is this!” he shows the camera a pricey vintage pair of jeans. “they’re not that expensive, i guess.”
if there was one clothing brand you could work with, who would it be and why?
his brain is buffering. most of the clothes sam buys are secondhand or vintage, even the brand name ones. still, he’s read the question out now, so he can’t just not answer it. a pair of his jeans, flung lazily in the corner of his room out of view. “levi’s, maybe? yeah. good jeans. classic.”
what’s your favorite season?
“summer! summer! what else? i love the sun, i love ...” sam drums his hands on his legs. he can’t say that he likes walking around with the bare minimum of clothes and he likes drinking cold beer on the beach. the beach! “the beach. i always look forward to going to the beach and swimming in the ocean.”
what’s your favorite seasonal activity?
“going to the beach and swimming. dinner and drinks outside, uh,” could he say that? probably. “i always like summer comebacks too, like breathless. i like upbeat songs, y’know?”
what’s the next step in your career, solo or otherwise?
“i want to act more,” he says simply, smiling at the camera. “there’s other stuff too, but acting is my main priority.”
if you donated to a charity, which would you choose and why?
“there’s a lot of causes, uh ... i try to donate where i can already. i think it’s important to take care of our oceans, so i donate to help clean them up. and, uh, also to local dog shelters! adopt don’t shop, and all that.”
if you could spend an afternoon with your fandom/your artist’s fandom, would you want to? if so, what would you do together?
“oh, definitely, yeah. maybe not everyone at a time though, yeah?” spy-m might not be a particularly big fandom, but he still wouldn’t want everyone who claimed to be one packed in one room for an entire afternoon. “let’s all eat together!”
how well do you deal with crowds and attention on you?
“it’s fine. it makes me nervous, obviously, but you use the nerves to make your performances better. that’s what i do anyways. it’s what i was taught as a kid in drama school.”
