EIGHT THINGS ABOUT YOUR LOVE LIFE
► Are you in love ➔ “Deeply and wonderfully, like I’ve not known before.”
► Do you believe in love at first sight ➔ “Infatuation at first sight, yes, but not love. Love is earned and grown.”
► Who ended your last relationship ➔ "Bahamut.”
► Have you ever broken someone’s heart ➔ "No, can’t say I have. At least not that I know about, I mean I’ve been rather oblivious to social cues most of my life, so there’s a small possibility I’ve been flirted with and just... not registered it. I sincerely doubt it, but it’s nonzero, so I have to count it. Still, even if so, not intentionally.”
► Are you afraid of commitments ➔ “No, not at all. I prefer commitment. Especially if it’s written down in explicit terms and I’m able to rub it someone’s face when (not if) they decide to try to violate those terms.”
► Have you hugged someone within the last week? ➔ "Twelve, every day I can. Always hugs for my family, always.”
► Have you ever had a secret admirer ➔ "None that I’m aware of, at least. Then again if I were aware it wouldn’t be very secret, would it?”
► Have you ever broken your own heart? ➔ "No, but I do understand the concept. Honestly, I’ve never had the opportunity to do it before, and I’d be daft to do it now.”
► Love or lust ➔ “Love. I could be poetic and list profound and glorious reasons why, but I’ll be honest, it’s because I’ve no interest in the other. It’s the source of a lot of trauma in my past, much of which I’m still recovering from. Additionally, I don’t feel it, at all. Don’t know if there’s a term for it, but that’s just how I am.”
► Lemonade or iced tea ➔ “Both! Mixed together they’re quite satisfying and refreshing.”
► Cats or Dogs ➔ “I really don’t like either of them, at least as pets. I’m not very much of a pet person at all, to be honest. I’ve contemplated getting a fish, but it’d probably starve, if we’re being honest. I suppose if I had to pick... cats? I mean I am Miqo’te.”
► A few best friends or many regular friends ➔ “I have a few close friends, and I like to keep it that way. Being able to go to a friend and know that I can trust them is important to me.”
► Wild night out or romantic night in ➔ “Romantic night in, for sure. Well, maybe out a little bit, for a stroll on one of the beaches or something, but a private affair. Intimacy with my beloved is much more satisfying to me than the energy of a party.”
► Day or night ➔ "Night, I’m a Keeper, married to a Duskwight, come on now!”
► Been caught sneaking out ➔ "Nope! And nobody caught me sneaking off to run away from home, either.”
► Fallen down/up the stairs ➔ “Fortunately I’ve never fallen down a set of stairs, but I have fallen while going up stairs before, and I assure it’s startling to find out that it can, actually, happen.”
► Wanted something/someone so badly it hurt? ➔ “Yes. The first person I loved, and I say loved after years of looking back upon it as an adult, was taken away from me very shortly after we realized our feelings. I didn’t know it could cause physical pain, but... well, there it was.”
► Wanted to disappear ➔ “Yes, for numerous reasons, and on numerous occasions. Fortunately, for some of them, I was able to.”
► Smile or eyes ➔ "Eyes. Eyes tell you more about a person and what their mind has in store than a smile ever could. Eyes can be gentle, fierce, piercing, dismissive, cold, intense... And the colors...”
► Shorter or Taller ➔ “I would say I have no preference, but if I’m going to look back at the people I’ve had relationships with I’m going to have to say taller!”
► Intelligence or Attraction ➔ “As someone who feels no physical attraction to others, intelligence. As someone who values it as a personal trait in herself, intelligence.”
► Hook-up or Relationship ➔ “Relationships, obviously. They’re the only times I’ve ever been ‘with’ another person, in any sense of the term, really.”
► Do you and your family get along ➔ “Absolutely not. I’m estranged from my mother, and none of my siblings except one have done much more than tolerate me. Rhela, the only one who did, has never decided to find me.”
► Would you say you have a “messed up life” ➔ "A messed up past, perhaps, but not a messed up life. I’ve made the best of it, and that’s that.”
► Have you ever ran away from home ➔ “Yes. I had to.
► Have you ever gotten kicked out ➔ “Not out of any institution, for sure. You could say that I was kicked out of my original home, but I was never actually told to leave, just never really made to feel welcome there.”
► Do you secretly hate one of your friends ➔ “Not at all, of course. Friends aren’t to be hated.”
► Do you consider all of your friends good friends ➔ "I do, in fact. Though I would say some people I only see as associates or acquaintances consider me a friend, but that’s their interpretation, not mine.”
► Who is your best friend ➔ “My wife, obviously. We’ve helped each other so much, and our love and relationship is as solid as it could possibly ever be.”
► Who knows everything about you ➔ “Nimie. Well, she knows the most, anyhow.”
