[SWEATS NERVOUSLY BC THIS DIDNT GET BURIED NOPE....]
just doing moss and aernthota for these!
10. What lie do they most frequently remember telling? Does it haunt them?
Moss struggled a lot after her accident, but refused to take help from her brothers for any extended amount of time. After she was (basically) back to normal, she insisted on doing a lot on her own. She often lied about how her eye was doing just to be left to her own devices. Now her brothers aren’t entirely sure of the extent of her blindness (which she’s been able to compensate for over the years. She still hates it when anyone sits on her right though because she has to turn more just to see them ). It’s not something she’s haunted by necessarily, but it is something that crops up more often than she’d like.
Aern’s is a little more related to the MSQ/WoL story in that she has lied to Silver more than once about her dedication to their cause. Silver is the type to draw a hard line at how much he’s willing to sacrifice. Aern... really isn’t. She’d die for the cause if it came down to it, but she could never be honest with Silver about that. This omission only really comes up when things get particularly heated in the whole “save the realm” situation. It’s kept her up a fair amount as well. (This will all change when they have a chance to settle down and have their daughter. Once Sunny’s in her life, there’s nothing more important than her husband and child, realm be damned.)
30. Who do they most regret meeting?
Moss regrets meeting a lot of people working for Miss Ariel. There were so many aggressive, violent, skeevy people who tried to prey on her while she was working that it became an innate reaction to bristle and shove people away (not to mention, so many people meant a lot of aetheric shifts which put her on edge more often than not). She doesn’t have a list of names but she could tell story after story and describe them in such awful detail because she’ll never forget their cruelty. And she regrets it now that she’s found herself surrounded by people who aren’t so predatory.
AND ON THE OTHER HAND... Aernthota really doesn’t regret meeting anyone per se. There are people who aren’t particularly memorable to her? And there are people she had to work against in order to save people? But none of them were exactly regrets. (JK FUCK ZENOS SHE COULD HAVE BEEN A BETTER PERSON WITHOUT MEETING HIM AS MUCH AS I LOVED HIM SHE WAS LIKE “OOOOOOO THIS BITCH RIGHT HERE FFFUUUUUUUUUCKKKKERRRRRRRRR” SO YEAH.)
A) Why are you excited about this character?
Moss is finally starting to get involved in plots and stories!! It’s so much fun getting to be a part of someone else’s story and not just constantly fiddle with hers! (which i mean eventually... there might be a chance to get into Moss’ background and story a little bit when things aren’t in the middle of.... So Much Stuff). But getting to see her interacting with people outside of her comfort zone is such a blast!
AERN IS MY HAPPY SUNSHINE BABY AND I CAN SEND THINGS TO ADAM AND BE LIKE “oh my god this is them isn’t it” AND JUST... it’s weird trying to do that with strangers sometimes? so having aern be in my comfort zone makes her so much fun to play bc I get to be a dork about it.
