Venus- take-out Nevarran food + a bottle of wine, drawing caricatures of who she was with, netflix and chill ;) OR going checking out the latest underground arts scene. Depends if she’s already been drinking or not.
Elena- Not having to work the night shift in the Trauma Center at the hospital (if she had the night off she’d probably sleep, poor thing is a workaholic. But if she was well rested and had free time, she’d probably want to cook a big dinner for all her friends.
Sulenera- Ice Skating followed by coffee and deep conversation at the local coffee house that seems to never be closed.
Rules:

I’m going to switch it up and pick Elena from Downshift! :) All Elena’s responses are under the cut! :) (Warning! Might contain some mild spoiler’s for Elena’s character in the fic!)
1. WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
She flashes a brilliant smile. “My name is Elena.”
2. WHAT IS YOUR REAL NAME?
Her smile falters slightly.
“Oh, uhm, well Elena is my real name. Except for that period of time it was legally changed to Nehnisa when Clan Lavellan adopted me... but when I turned 18 I made the choice to change it back to Elena. I kept Nehnisa as my middle name.”
Her smile returns, a little forced.
3. DO YOU KNOW WHY YOU WERE CALLED THAT?
“Elena or Nehnisa?”
BOTH.
“My parents named me Elena. My Clan wanted to give me a... happier name when they took me in. They thought Elena would make me....sad.”
She fidgets, and a sad smile replaces the brilliant one.
“I like Elena.”
4. ARE YOU SINGLE OR TAKEN?
“Ah...ask me that in two weeks and I’ll be single. I called off my engagement not hat long ago...its a bit of a messy break-up.”
5. DO YOU HAVE ANY ABILITIES OR POWERS?
“I’m a doctor, so some people would say saving lives is a super power, but honestly it’s all in a days work.” She laughs lightheartedly.
6. STOP BEING A GARY STU.
“Uh...what?” Her eyes light up in confusion.
NEVERMIND.
7. WHAT IS YOUR EYE COLOR?
“They’re blue, like both my parents.”
8. HOW ABOUT YOUR HAIR COLOR?
“It’s black, and a totally inescapable mess sometimes.” More chirping laughter. “Somedays my ringlets cooperate with me. Most days, they don’t. And a messy bun it is.”
9. HAVE YOU ANY FAMILY MEMBERS?
“I have my Clan, my medical team at Inquisition Memorial, and some friends I’ve saved along the way. I’ll have a family of my own....someday.”
10. OH? WHAT ABOUT PETS?
“No pets currently. I had a halla when I lived on the reservation. Adahlena...she was a piece of work, that one.”
11. TELL ME ABOUT SOMETHING YOU DON’T LIKE.
“Car Accidents.” She blanches. “I don’t want to talk about it.”
12. DO YOU HAVE ANY HOBBIES/ACTIVITIES YOU LIKE DOING?
“Does working overtime count? Haha, no I know that wouldn’t count. Uhm, I enjoy reading and making mosaics. I’m not all that good but it passes the time.”
13. EVER HURT ANYONE BEFORE?
She fidgets, readjusting herself in the chair. “My ex-fiance would definitely say I did.”
14. EVER...KILLED ANYONE BEFORE?
“Creators, no! I save people remember?” She looks slightly mortified.
15. WHAT KIND OF ANIMAL ARE YOU?
“Do you mean what kind would I like to be?”
SURE.
“I like Halla, I think they’re elegant. I also am fond of red pandas. So maybe that one!”
16. NAME ONE OF YOUR WORST HABITS.
“Working too much. Never sleeping.” Strained laughter escapes her lips. “I, uhm,” she clears her throat, “I’d rather not talk about my worst habit.”
OUR SOURCES SAY YOU WERE INVOLVED IN SOME LEGAL TROUBLE WHEN YOU WERE A MINOR.
She blanches again. “How did you....I’d rather not talk about it.”
17. DO YOU LOOK UP TO ANYONE AT ALL?
“The Hero of Ferelden. What a marvelous man.” Her eyes glass over in admiration. “His medical research altered the course of modern medicine forever. He is credited with finding a temporary cure for the Blight, a vaccine that slows down the blighting process. My goals are to carry out his research to find a cure.”
She take a breath, and some color returns to her cheeks, “And my driving instructor. I’d be lying if I didn’t say I looked up to him.”
18. SEXUAL ORIENTATION?
“You know, I’m not quite sure. I think I’m Pan. I don’t really think about it all too much.”
19. DO YOU GO TO SCHOOL?
I did. I was trained at the medical academy on the Lavellan Reservation. We have the best medical program in Thedas. Well aside from Arlathan, but they are still in Quarantine after their Blight outbreak. We haven’t heard from them in twenty years.” She suddenly goes quiet, lost in thought.
“Oh! And I’m currently enrolled in a driver’s training program! It’s not school per se, but I take driving lessons, so sort of? My instructor is...interesting to say the least.” She blushes.
20. DO YOU EVER WANT TO MARRY AND HAVE KIDS ONE DAY?
Her eyes light up with joy. “Oh Absolutely! A family of my own, whether the kids are mine by blood or through adoption--it’s all I’ve ever wanted.” The brilliant smile is back.
21. WHAT ARE YOU MOST AFRAID OF?
The smile immediately disappears. “Getting into a car accident. And spiders.”
22. WHAT DO YOU USUALLY WEAR?
“I practically live in various sets of scrubs, haha! But when I’m off duty I love wearing sundresses or over sized sweaters.”
23. DO YOU LOVE SOMEONE?
“I love a lot of people, very much.”
24. WHAT CLASS ARE YOU? (HIGH/MIDDLE/LOW)
“I’m comfortable, as a leading doctor in my field, I make more than enough for one person so I give most of my earnings to my Clan. I don’t mind though, I don’t need much to be happy.”
25. HOW MANY FRIENDS DO YOU HAVE?
“You can never have too many friends.”
26. THOUGHTS ON PIE?
She giggles. “I like this question. Pie is fantastic. Especially cherry pie.”
27. FAVORITE DRINK?
“Espresso. I need it to pull all my nightshifts, or when I get called in.”
28. WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE PLACE?
“The hospital. When I’m not there, hmm... good question. I don’t get out much.” She lets out a bit of nervous laughter.
29. WOULD YOU RATHER SWIM IN THE LAKE OR THE OCEAN?
“Lake I would think,...I’ve swam in rivers before, but never in a lake or an ocean. so I don’t really know which I’d prefer!”
30. ARE YOU INTERESTED IN ANYONE?
She blushes again. “I..I.. uhm. There is, someone maybe...it’s too soon to say...” She falters a bit more and looks away embarrassed.
31. WHAT’S YOUR BRA CUP/DICK SIZE?
She flushes an even brighter pink. “Excuse me!?”
CAN WE GUESS?
“No!” She covers her cheek with a hand. “I can’t believe I’m going to say this. but uhm, 36 C.”
32. WHAT’S YOUR TYPE?
Her face is still flaming. “I’ve been told I date older. I don’t really notice. Uhm. What do you mean?”
WHAT ATTRACTS YOU?
“It’s... how I feel when I’m with someone... you know? I feel myself drawn to people I can talk to, people who are intellectually engaging, who can keep up with me, people who make me feel safe. So I guess there are certain qualities I find attractive more so than physical appearance. Does that make sense?”
33. ANY FETISHES?
Her faces changes from pink to crimson. “What kinds of questions are these?!”
DO YOU HAVE ANY FETISHES?
“Not like I’d tell you!”
SO YOU DO.
“Next. Question.”
‘Roleplaying is a fetish, love!’ is heard being called from the hallway. Elena whips around to face the door, curls falling out of their bun and into her eyes while she yells back.
“Roleplaying is NOT fetish Anders! You can answer the damn fetish question when it’s your turn!”
She turns around, sweeps away the fallen tendrils and clears her throat. “So...uh...next?”
34. SEME OR UKE? TOP OR BOTTOM? DOMINANT OR SUBMISSIVE?
Her eyes go wide and she makes an undignified squealing noise.
I THINK WE CAN FIGURE IT OUT.
“Wait--no--I can expla--” Her hands fly up.
---CAMPING INDOORS OR OUTDOORS? :)
“--in. I’m not that submiss--”
CAMPING. :)
“--ive. I take charge all the time, in all areas of my life--”
EXACTLY. :)
“--exactly what?”
:)
“Stop smirking at me!” She continues to fluster, covering her face with her hands. It still doesn’t hide her blush.
Oh, oh, I'm falling, so I'm taking my time on my ride
Oh, I'm falling, so I'm taking my time on my ride
Taking my time on my ride
2. “Hands to Myself”- Selena Gomez
The doctors say you're no good
But people say what they wanna say
And you should know if I could
I'd breathe you in every single day
Can't keep my hands to myself
I mean, I could but why would I want to?
3. “Out of the Woods”-Taylor Swift
Remember when you hit the brakes too soon?
Twenty stitches in the hospital room
When you started cryin', baby, I did, too
But when the sun came up, I was lookin' at you
4. “Rather Be”- Clean Bandit
With every ride we take, Ferelden to Orlais
Driving so casually
We're different and the same, get you another name
Switch up the batteries
[ altered the lyrics a bit ;) ]
5. “Shut Up and Drive”- Rihanna
Cos I'm 0 to 60 in three point five
Baby you got the keys-
Now shut up and drive
(drive, drive, drive)
