Time for Munday Questions!
😺 - Do you have any pets?
I have one pet! He's a Cavalier King Charlies Spaniel and his name is Charlemagne but we call him Charlie (of course). Let me show him off (he hates letting me work):
🔥- Is there anything you would like to promote?
I should use this to promote my Etsy account. I sell 3D-printed goods but not the typical flexis (for which I'm quite proud). It's hair clips, jewelry, and lately a lot of book supplies like bookmarks and book nooks. But I'd feel really weird about that.
So let me promote instead: I've unprivated my following list for the day and you should all go take a look at it and consider any of these amazing people.
🦕 - What's your favorite dinosaur?
I've had the same favorite dinosaur for at least 30 years. Brachiosaurus. Ask me how mad I am they're so spotty in the Jurassic Park/World movies after the first!
🍿 - What's your favorite movie?
This is going to be wild but my favorite film is the second in a trilogy: Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. But here's why: the whole series is one of my favorites from a story perspective but also from a sentimental perspective, and The Two Towers specifically has my favorite scenes! Those being the battle of the Ents at Isengard and the battle at Helm's Deep.
📺 - What's your favorite TV show?
I love a ton of different shows but the one I watch all the way through consistently is The IT Crowd. Close seconds are Parks & Rec and Community.
🕜 - How long have you been Rping for? Did you start on Tumblr?
I've been RPing for over 25 years. I don't even know if Tumblr is that old but technically I was rping a multi-oc story with my best friend on paper (and Microsoft Word?).
✏️ - Why did you choose to write your muse(s)?
I choose muses based on my favorites - they're usually characters for which I really love the personality, and I want to be able to explore that personality beyond what they have in their canon media.
🐶 - What's your favorite animal?
To nobody's surprise, I love doggies. Most canine species, honestly.
✒️ - What sort of hobbies do you have outside of writing?
I crochet! Mostly for myself and close friends but I also make ornaments to sell at markets. Speaking of markets -
🌟 - What was the first fandom you remember Rping for?
X-Men Evolution. I don't have commentary, I'm sticking to the defense that I was also in high school at the time!
😔 - Have you had any bad experiences while Rping?
Finding out I wasn't as liked as people were telling me, and actually was getting talked about behind my back a lot. Dramatic, I know. Almost ruined RP for me and I did end up stepping away from that fandom for good. (see last question haha)
😍 - Do you have a specific character type that you usually find applies to your favorites?
If they're proficient at sarcasm, you can bet I'll be interested. Plus the whole "attractive and probably knows it but humble enough not to use it" as well as "completely wholesome, a cinnamon bun" features really go a long way.
😎 - Why did you choose your mun name? Does it mean something to you?
My current mun name is my actual nickname (Mikki) and usename (MCaptainette) because I'm still a huge Cap fan. It was what I was using when I was streaming as well as keeping a pretty big social media presence. I haven't gotten rid of it entirely because it's still true (though mikkisaurus is slowly taking over)
😏 - What's something you want people to know about you?
I'm super shy, believe it or not. I'm also full of anxiety so I'm actually terrible at socializing - I should say now that if I'm obnoxious about communicating it's because my anxiety about wanting to talk to you is sky high and I'm probably overcorrecting. 🙃 (pls tell me tho).
This also totally means I'm not likely to send memes that advance anything or ask something of others, or reach out first unless I'm having a "be brave" moment.
Thanks so much for all these beautiful blogs who sent in these questions!
