Okay, for your OC questionnaire, I have to ask #1 & #12 for Dottie and #3 and #9 for Colette! -Crowie (a.k.a. TCCG)
HI THERE, CROWIE!! (gonna take me a little while not to call you "girl" anymore, but I absolutely adore your new nickname! so cute!!)
SO HAPPY TO SEE YOU HERE IN MY INBOX!!! I am so happy to have received a question for my Colette too! so, without further ado, LEMME ANSWER YOUR ASK!
1-What’s the maximum amount of time your character can sit still with nothing to do? Already answered in this post here! :)
12- How do they deal with an itch found in a place they can’t quite reach?
WELL. Now, if we are talking about a literal itch that they cannot reach, it truly depends on WHERE and WHEN and WHO is around, if you get my meaning! But I think that, in general, she would just endure the itch, and hope that it would go away fairly quickly on its own, trying to maintain her composure. If it’s something she cannot truly endure and she is during a social event, she would excuse herself, go to a quiet spot and ask her mother or whoever is chaperoning her if they could help her reach the spot she cannot reach.
3-How do they put themselves to bed at night (reading, singing, thinking?)
Colette loves to sing, at any time of the day, even before going to sleep. Although not classically trained as my other singer, Dorothea, she had a beautiful low, smoky timbre and a natural disposition for picking up tunes and remembering melodies, so, it was not unusual to see her sitting at her small toiletry table, taking care of her skin and brushing those long curls that made Arno go gaga, and sing the same soft lullabies either Antoine or most likely Mathias used to sing to her when they put her to sleep. It’s a comforting ritual for her, especially when Arno is not around and is busy with missions for the Brotherhood. When Arno is at the Cafe Theatre, then it’s completely different. They would probably enjoy a relaxing bath together and chitchat with one another about the long day they had behind them, getting so lost in the chatters that the water would probably run cold. If either of them had a particularly rough day, the other would gently help the other, allowing them to relax and making their presence known by listening intently and offering the other a safe place to let out all they needed to let out. Often, they would lie in bed together, with Colette brushing his hair and giving him small kisses until he fall asleep. When she sees that he is soundly snoring (dear gods, Arno, the snoring), then she is able to peacefully lie down and fall asleep herself.
9-Do they swear? Do they remember their first swear word?
Colette swears. More than she would like to admit, although, when she does, it’s most likely because she is angered by something or anxious to the point that she cannot control. So, in those situations, she is more likely to drop the equivalent of a French F-Bomb. This all goes down the drain when someone messes with Arno. She just goes full-on raging fire, waving her notorious rolling pin, uttering all the profanities she knows (ahh, all the times Claude had to hold her, because otherwise she would have likely reduced Arno’s offender in a pulp lol). As for remembering her first swear word, she doesn’t, but Antoine and Mathias do, because they were the one responsible (indirectly, tho?) for her to learn it. You see, Colette was a wee bab of merely 3 years of age, joyous and happy, but a little delayed in her speech, much to her elder siblings worries. So, one day, while Antoine and Mathias were arguing in a rather heated way (Mathias is a lamb most of the time, but he does have a temper underneath all that sweetness), Colette would just run into their room, worried as children always are when they hear the people they love argue, and screamed, a “PUTAIN” so loud, Mathias swears he can still hear it reverberates across the rooms. Mathias and Antoine were taken off guards, but started laughing so much afterwards (and then they had to stop little Colette from uttering that word out just because she thought it was funny. Needless to say, they were kinda bummed out when they realized that she wasn't planning on stopping dropping that word at the most inconvenient of times 😂)
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE QUESTIONS.
I HAD TRULY SO MUCH FUN! <3
