introducing spill or be spilled, a get to know the locals column where kerdale diaries gets a one on one with everyone around the town ! when the parties are wilder and the rumors aren't slowing down, there's no better time for us to stick our nose where it doesn't belong.
[ 𝗢𝗢𝗖 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗠𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 ]
below the cut you can find a list of interview questions for your muse(s): pick the ones you like and answer them in character in any way you want, whether it's full paragraphs, bullet points or snappy one liners.
each muse will get their own get to know post on kerdale diaries, therefore we are asking you to submit the answers via the submit box on @kerdalesdiaries that will be later on edited and turned into an individual post !

𝗦𝗣𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗢𝗥 𝗕𝗘 𝗦𝗣𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗗 with alana romero ⏤ @smittenfm !
she, who grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth and every barbie dreamhouse her little heart desired, is now giving you a smile behind dizzie's diner counter and crocheting you a scar in the same breath. one could say that she's a proof that not all sugarcoated smiles are shallow, but the people would like t know how long can crestview's once pampered princess stay grounded in diner grease before her parents wallets call her back ? the floor is yours alana, time to spill it.
which kerdale location would you haunt if you were a ghost ?
um, dizzie’s diner. absolutely. i mean, it’s not like i hate working there or anything, i just think some of the old men who gawk and flirt with us younger waitresses could be taught a lesson. and the idea that i could scare them shitless without any repercussions almost makes me wanna become a ghost right the heck now !
who throws the best parties, the crests or the rusts ?
i feel like i have to say the crests, because we do everything better, right ? but, y’know, i guess i’ll be politically correct and admit that the rusts have thrown a few fun shindigs before too. but honestly, i like any party where there’s alcohol and other single pringles who wanna mingle with me, so i guess i really ain’t too picky after all.
what do you think about when you can’t sleep ?
i think about what it’d be like if i just packed up my bags, grabbed my dog axel and got the hell outta kerdale. i’d go somewhere new, somewhere more my speed. i’ve always wanted to live in one of those huge cities, like new york or los angeles. like, imagine me in manhattan or beverly hills. that would be iconic, am i right or am i right ? but, it’s just wishful thinking. for now.
if your parents had their way, what job would you have ? is that your job now ?
bitch, i’m a waitress. no offense, you’re not actually a bitch. i call everyone that. anyway, i wouldn’t say that’s their dream job for me, but they don’t really care what i do. they just want me to get a paycheck so i’m not constantly begging them for money, i guess. which, let’s be honest, i still do that sometimes. dizzie’s diner doesn’t exactly pay the best, and the tips are nice, but ya girl needs more than that most of the time.
ever used your last name to get out of trouble ?
um .. maybe. i’ll swear on a bible right now, it was only the one time. i may or may not have used my name and also my top notch flirting skills to get out of a speeding ticket a few months ago. god, i hope my parents never hear about this !
𝗦𝗣𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗢𝗥 𝗕𝗘 𝗦𝗣𝗜𝗟𝗟𝗘𝗗 with rosetta bakare ⏤ @okaytea !
you know her if you've sipped something sweet at bobae at least once. san francisco born, polished at UCLA and once told to pick a place anywhere in the world to start her own business, rosetta chose kerdale and she came with her twin sister, who not only holds half the shop, but also half of rosetta's heart. if she's not behind the counter crafting strawberry cold foam, you'll find her at the beachside, book in hand, getting sun kissed as if she owns the entire shoreline, which let's be honest ⏤ she kinda does. now it's time we put the glitter straw down and ask rosetta the questions you really want answered. welcome to spill or be spilled, brought to you by kerdale diaries !
what's this... an interview ? well, i never pass up a chance to talk, gossip, and hype myself up ! some of these questions seem a little nosy, but what's life without a little nosiness, right ? should i state my name for the record ? rosetta bakare, at your service.
what's your drink order ?
it depends. where am i getting this drink from. bobae, my cafe ? if that's the case, i'm going to answer the same no matter how much the menu changes over the years : that damn strawberry blast frosé. though i wish i had come up with it, it was my sister's creation. strawberry puree, lemonade, crushed ice, topped with a slice of candied lemon and just a slight drizzle of sweetened condensed milk. never had it ? what are you doing with yourself, then ? go get one ! now !
who throws the best parties, the crests or the rusts ?
this is a loaded question. that's like asking, "what's better ? pears or watermelons ?" ( the answer is watermelons, but that's neither here nor there. ) not being a native to kerdale but owning a popular business, i've been to plenty of parties on both sides. it's a matter of personal taste. if you like catered events, wine older than your grandmother, and wardrobes that rival the kardashians, go to a crest party. if you're more into indie music that's heavy on acoustic guitar solos, casual outfits, cold beers, and people who won't automatically assume you're "the help", then hit up a rust party ! personally, i can find a friend at both.
are you team “the loophole is real” or team “it’s all smoke” ?
if i've learned anything after being alive for over three decades, it's that the rich often have something to hide. how many towns have really been built on true honesty ? probably far fewer than we'd all like to believe. the loophole is definitely real.
what's the most expensive thing you’ve ruined in a party-related incident ?
though i was hoping to forget about this, here you've gone and brought it up ! doesn't matter, i guess. i'm sure everyone and their mother has already heard about it. one too many glasses of champagne and a tipsy, clumsy trip over my own heels sent me sprawling - and, unfortunately, i took the arm off of a small ( but priceless ) angel statue in god-knows-who's house. i bought them a new one, though !
do you actually believe in the “crest vs rust” divide or is it just tradition ?
not being from around either side of town, i believe that they all believe in the divide. personally speaking, i think it's all a bit silly. why is everyone so up in arms about it ? is this 1655, or something ? i think everyone should just come together and get along, work with each other, and find common ground. i'm sure if most people from both sides actually sat down and talked to each other, they'd come to the same realization : everyone has the same things going on on the inside. we're all muscle, blood, and bone, and at the end of the day, the dust we turn to doesn't give a damn whether we're crests, rusts, or something else entirely.
who in town has the most punchable face ?
not to end on a sour note, but uh, have you ever met the mayor of crestview ? let's be honest, here. it's the mayor of crestview.
well ! this was both fun and eye-opening. i'll be keeping my eye out for wherever this ends up surfacing. god knows it won't be kept private !
