😑: Is your muse able to keep their temper under control?

y...es. kind of. most of the time. 

when not under extreme duress, he is pretty good about walking away and/or keeping himself restrained to verbal confrontation. unfortunately for sam (and yarrow’s tooth; RIP), “hunted by killer robots in the post apocalypse” sort of inherently counts as extreme duress

diamondcityrough replied to your post:What makes a dumpster deluxe? Size? Location?...

There is not one. Please do not encourage your loved ones to live in a dumpster.

Hey now, I’m not encouraging anything! Although in my experience it’s remarkably difficult to talk your loved ones out of a dumpster.

❖ describe their hands

Small, slim, quick and graceful. Short, perfectly manicured nails. You wouldn’t guess from looking at them that she hits as hard as she does.

✜ what’s their posture like in a normal situation?

Loose, comfortable, a little slouchy -- whenever he doesn’t know what to do with his hands (which is frequently) he sticks them in his pockets or fiddles with his lighter/cigarettes. Unless he’s worked up about something or worried about imminent danger, he usually tends to plant his feet pretty solidly.

23. Could you ever become your own hero? Is that a role you can fulfill or is it something you look to others for?

Nah.  See, the Mistress of Mysteries is a brunette and I’m a blonde, so it could never work out.  Little Kenty’s a stickler for details; he’d probably have a fit.  You ever met Kenty?  Kent Connolly, nerd that runs the Shroud station?  He’s a peach.  Tell you what though, I’d probably look damn fine in the outfit, hero or no hero.

32. If you could choose to remove certain feelings such as anger, confusion, sadness, would you remove them? 

I guess it’d be pretty nice if no one ever got confused about anything ever and just sort of knew what everyone else meant.  It’d probably clear up a lot of problems in the world.  I’d at least would have done way better in school if I wasn’t so baffled by stupid things all the time.

[Sebastian] How do I let my daughter know she's important to me without being overbearing?

See, the thing is, at a certain age, your kids are always going to think you’re overbearing, so why worry about it?  Nothing much you can do about it and I figure if they’re happy and healthy, you’re obviously doing something right.  I guess...I guess the best way to let ‘em know they’re important is to treat them their age, give them the space they need.  I mean, it’s not something dramatic, you know, it’s not something grand like giving them a thousand caps or something, but I think in the long run, it’s something they’ll appreciate.  And, I mean, it’s hard, I know, because you could have a kid that’s fifty years old (uh, not you in specific, but in the generalized sense) but you look at them and all you see is that toddler who wouldn’t stop shoving rocks up her nose any chance they get, but they’re like...people with their decisions to make, which is really trippy to think about.  So give ‘em space when they need it and give ‘em respect and still be there.

Also, highly recommend learning to knit because you can basically just throw scarves at them and they’ll always be like, “Dad, I don’t need another scarf,” but they’re wearing them and they won’t admit it but they appreciate the heck out of it.  Yarn prices are outrageous, though, so that’s a real bummer.
