Time for another one. For this one we can thank Vera.
Because I totally don't have OTHER ways I could be wasting my time...
1. Who do you feel the closest to?
Pretty much anyone I consider a close friend. All my friends from C-F, my IRL friends, and my various video game heroes.
2. What was your happiest experience as a child?
Every time I went to an amusement park.
3. What offenses do you find the most difficult to forgive?
Well, as an overly-forgiving idealist, I'm honestly able to forgive someone for just about anything as long as I feel they are genuinely sorry for it.
... I don't think I'm right for feeling like this, it's just my personality.
4. What do you regret the most?
My two-year "anti-shipper" period when I first joined the internet. I was better than some members of the internet, and REALLY bad at the trolling I thought I was doing a "good" job with, but I was still utter trash.
How I ever made friends is beyond me.
5. Who inspires you the most?
No one person in particular; I've met people and came to discover fictional figures that have given me new understandings of so many things, and I consider them all inspirational.
6. What would you do if you were the last person on Earth?
Honestly? I'd probably kill myself there.
I'm hard to truly depress, but leaving me truly and utterly alone will inevitably do the trick.
7. What would be your questions to ask on a first date?
"So, have you watched/played/read *insert fandom(s) here*?"
8. What is the most spontaneous thing you've done lately?
Just yesterday, out of the blue, I suddenly grew an urge to replay Persona 3.
... Yeah, I'm boring.
9. Relaxing or exploring?
The only things I'm "exploring" are the possible subtle morals and characterizations my fandoms have to offer.
10. Risk-taker or safety first?
I used to be a risk-taker, but when it reached a point where the risks ALWAYS back-fired, I started taking caution.
11. Do you believe in eye for an eye? Explain.
In a way, I do, but I don't believe it's quite that simple, at the same time.
People aren't black and white and neither are their motivations for things they do. I mean, sure, if someone punches you, while I wouldn't encourage you for punching back, I certainly won't look down on you for it. Hell, I used to do exactly that before I became a pacifist.
But for deeper crimes, like assault or murder, I believe there needs to be some understanding of why it was done. I mean, obviously, crime is crime, but I believe there are certain motivations behind crime that should be taken into account for things they do. People don't just kill for fun.
... Well, okay, some do, but what I mean is that sometimes the other guy's an ass, sometimes they ruined their life, sometimes they tried to murder them or their family. These things should be taken into account when considering the severity of a crime.
What is your favorite video game song?
What "sympathetic villain" in any medium have you felt the least sympathy for?
Do you consider silent protagonists "blank slates" if there aren't any explicitly characterizing moments for them?
Would you rather play a light-hearted and simple game of unironic fun, or would you prefer a game with cute visuals and a seemingly childish scenario that is actually very dark when you get down to it?
Would you prefer a visual novel with a deep story, or a game with superb gameplay and a simple story? (Not to be answered with "both", please)
If you have one, what is your favorite fictional weapon that doesn't exist in real life?
Have you ever been in love with a fictional character of your own gender?
How do you talk to someone whose opinion on your favorite character directly opposes yours?
Do you think something can be "too cute" to personally enjoy?
What's the video game genre you're worst at?
