another! she didn't mean to get an army Really she didn't but apparently she was so accidentally charismatic that her entire school decided to back her.... in everything... including trying to right a centuries-old genocide

INCREDIBLEhmmmm...I do have one accidentally-charismatic character, they started out as a prodigy in their particular area of magic but their real talents were in their ability to make friends with people and to get people to like them. Things went a little bit to shit for reasons that weren’t her fault but even basically in exile she ended up gathering a motley family of strays around her and basically became The Mom Friend for multiple other characters and literally mommed one character out of trying to defeat her.

spends a large amount of time quietly reading books about as much as possible. his long, tightly braided hair draping down his side as he leans over the book. however don't be fooled. despite how quiet he is, he absolutely, 100%, is filled with pride, and will always believe he is perhaps the best possible. he doesn't have to tell anyone though. he just smiles and quietly believes he probably ought to be God.

oooOOOoooooanyway in return i’ll give you some facts about one of my total nerd characters, although instead of books for him it’s machines–he spends most of his time in his workshop, combining his tools and his magic to try to make other people’s lives easier. He keeps his hair cut short to stop it from getting in his way, and he has callouses and burn scars along his lower arms. He’s confident in his own abilities in a way that can rub people the wrong way when they don’t understand the passion and dedication that he puts into his work and the fact that that confidence is earned. He loves to do things for people and to interact with people, but unfortunately for plot reasons doesn’t get the chance very often.

20 51 61 76 137

20. First thing I notice in a new person? 

Hm--that’s hard, usually their appearance, followed by how friendly/unfriendly they seem towards me. 

51. How often do I wear a fake smile? 

A lot. 

61. What was the last lie I told? 

I can’t remember?? Probably some small white lie??

76. What do I think Satan’s last name is? 

I don’t really know but if it was a play on “morning star” that would make my nerd self happy. 

137. Do I like my handwriting? 

Yeah.

C. Have you ever looked down on someone because you thought your religious views were superior?

Not that I can recall. Of course, when I was in my “atheism is superior” 13 y/o phase I believed all kinds of belief were the biggest bullshit ever but I didn’t apply this view to the people who had a faith.

H. If it meant it would solve all world hunger, war, disease and bigotry, would you spend the rest of eternity in Hell?

Probably. Sure I’d rather look for a less...painful way to get it first but I’d do it.

I. Was the first crush in your life something you had or something someone had on you?

It was definitely something I had for someone. Ever since I was a kid I had the ability to crush on people in the blink of an eye.

Z. Can you understand the mindset and logic used by the opposite spiritual opinion? An atheist understanding the belief in a higher power and vice versa.

Yep!

8, 9, 24, 37, 38

8. The best piece of feedback I’ve ever gotten:

Probably the fact that my cousins apparently voted me “cousin most likely to succeed in being what they say they’re going to be  (a writer)”. I mean it’s not exactly helpful but it is motivating. 

9. What’s the worst piece of feedback I’ve gotten:

“You’re not going to finish it anyways,” courtesy of my younger brother. 

24. My favorite and least favorite parts of plotting:

Favorite part is without a doubt setting up the climaxes of the plotlines and working out how to foreshadow them. Least favorite is filling up all the space I need to fill before the climaxes. 

37. My oldest WIP:

Blood Magic, which is three years old, has had two revisions, and needs a total overhaul but I just can’t abandon my homicidal pyromaniac child so I will do that work

38. My current WIP: 

Both a second draft/chapter edit of Runaway, a heroic fantasy based on the american western frontier with lesbians, and the first draft of Lunacy, which is the strange lovechild of urban fantasy, reincarnation romance, and marching band AUs. 

Thanks!

I did the first two, but:

44) What’s the weirdest character concept I’ve come up with:

Hm. For flat-up weird, probably... huh. Perhaps the winged nerd guy who everyone had a crush on and then was forcibly ascended to godhood via posession and spent a lot of time trying to get his former friends to understand the messages he was sending via flowers.
