I assume this is about the Homestuck ask, so! :1: How long have you been a Homestuck?

About a year now!

11: What’s your Title (X of Y; example Heir of Breath)?

I’m a Rogue of Hope, according to several “tests” I’ve taken. I’d consider that pretty damn fitting, too: I steal hope from my enemies (by crushing them relentlessly- you don’t want to be my enemy) and spread it to my friends (I like to think I’m pretty good about making people feel better!). :)

27: Most favorite thing about Homestuck (in general)

Probably the way so many tiny details add up and become relevant later. Things like John hating Betty Crocker, who ends up being the Condesce, is is actually an enemy of the kids! Things like that. You can’t pass over any detail because it could easily be important!

Well I'm gay haha and was like damn he's pretty freaking cute and btw love your blog :D

AWWW THANK YOU 

I love it when anyone loves my blog because it’s such of a jumble crazy shit. :) Thank you for that, too!

Random question what is your sexual orientation?

That’s the first time I’ve ever been asked that on tumblr, which kinda surprises me! I’m straight. I can appreciate handsome dudes and I have mancrushes, but I’m just not sexually attracted to men.I’ve had a couple of gay guys hit on me before, though. It was flattering as fuck (despite having to turn them down). U u U

14) If you are outside, what are you most likely doing? Do you believe in karma? 25) Do you prefer talking on the phone or video chatting online? 53) Do you save money or spend it?

14) If you are outside, what are you most likely doing?

Probably riding my bike or (it’s been a while due to shitty weather, but) reading a book. c:

18) Do you believe in karma?

I don’t believe it exists supernaturally, but it’s a pretty reasonable concept. If you’re a dick, it’ll eventually come around to bite you, because people will remember that. If you’re amicable and nice to people, then people will probably be better to you later on.

25) Do you prefer talking on the phone or video chatting online?

I’ve never really video chatted online, but I don’t care for talking on the phone. I like to say what needs to be said and then hang up. So probably video chatting!

53) Do you save money or spend it?

Depends on if I want something: if I want it and have the means, I get it. But if I don’t, I save it. Money isn’t that important to me beyond the necessity of it to live; I’d prefer the enjoying the things life allows me to enjoy.

An ask that wasn't asked as an ask, but here you go: 71, 77

71) You are walking down the street on your way to work. There is a dog drowning in the canal on the side of the street. Your boss has told you if you are late one more time you get fired. What do you do?

I save the dog. I can get another job. If my boss fires me for saving a dog from drowning, I probably don't want to work for them anyway.

77) How can I win your heart?

Depends on what you mean. If platonically, that's easy- just be yourself and be true to that. As long as you aren't vapid or a douche, and we have a few things in common, I'll probably like you pretty well. Being sweet to me is a nice bonus. ;)

If it's asked romantically, then...there's no real way to answer that. There's not some simple method to win my heart. I just fall for you, or I don't. There's no real template, it's just someone who makes me feel great about myself when I'm around them and we can spend time together in groups or alone comfortably. Laughter's the one must, I guess I could say. You have to laugh and smile often (don't fake that shit though that's like the biggest turn off ever)

8 and 35!

8) Girls…. (finish the sentence); Boys…. (finish the sentence)

Huh. What an odd question. I can’t really put it into sentences (sorry), but…hmm…I guess I would say that most girls I’ve been around have been usually been more friendly and usually warm up to me a little more quickly than guys. I feel more comfortable around women, for the most part. More girls seem to like my sense of humor, too. Men usually take a little more time to coax into any sort of friendship, but are easier to become acquaintances with. Most of them don’t get as close to me as girls do, either. I can spark conversation with men a bit easier, but dialogue is easier with girls, especially over longer periods of time.

Hopefully that answer works for you, anon!

35) To you, what is the meaning of life?

The meaning of life, to me, is to make others and yourself happy. Money, work, school…everything else doesn’t really matter as long as you and the people close to you are happy. If you need high paying positions to get that happiness, more power to you. If you need high grades for that happiness, go for it. As long as you live up to your own ideal of comfort and the people you care about are fairly happy, what more could you want? After all, nothing’s worth doing if you’re miserable. Feeling confident and happy about yourself, while trying your best to spread that feeling to others…that’s my philosophy on the meaning of life. We exist to complete each other. :)

D’aw, thank you! <3

Last song I listened to was that awesome Born to Die / Dirt Off Your Shoulder remix. Fuckin’ brilliant, that was.

BELT!

B. FAVORITE BAND:

Beables. They’re legendary for a reason. I love pretty much all music, or at least a song from most bands, but they’re pretty consistent in how much I enjoy their music.

E. MY BEST FRIEND:

I answered this in another one, so to quote it: ”Well, as odd as it may sound, probably my ex, actually. I really have quite a few “best friends” but she knows me the best for obvious reasons, having dated me for almost two years. It’s unusual to most people and they question it, but we get along just fine.”

L. ONE OF MY INSECURITIES:

Oh, hmmm…tough question. I like myself pretty well, but I guess if I had to pick one thing that I’d be insecure about it’d be my little bit of chub. I like it, personally, I think it makes me more huggable, cuddly, and boy does it make me nice and warm (hear that? free body heat generator right here, cold girls *winks a million times awkwardly*) but I’m pretty sure people have shied away from me for it, though, which sucks. :/

T. AGE I GET MISTAKEN FOR:

Never been mistaken for an age much different than my own, usually one to two years off. I have, however, been mistaken for a girl by an old lady when I was younger and had long hair.
