Hi bestie!!! hey!!!! omg hi!!!!!!!! ^_^ For the 40 OC development questions part 2. #1 for Brim post and pre-OotA, and #16 for Brim and Atom :)
#1: How does your character sleep? Peacefully, fitfully? What position do they sleep in? What is their typical bedding like?
When Brim was with their Order of the Gauntlet buddies, they definitely got used to sleeping wherever. However, the one exception to this is to fall asleep easily they need something or someone to hug. The Gauntlet people were probably endeared to Brim cuddling up close in the cold and eventually hugging them after a few months. I also think they slept pretty heavily, though they wake up easily if someone purposely tries to get them up.
As for in the Underdark... they use a piece of clothing or a bag to hug while sleeping because they know everyone would be uncomfortable otherwise. They also are more vigilant and sleep lighter here, because in their eyes they’re the strongest and they have to keep everyone safe. You may have noticed how I always set up Brim at the mouth of whatever cave we sleep in, and that is specifically because they want to be the first to be able to act if they can.
(Bonus Atom is that he sleeps at odd angles on his bed and every once in a while has to sleep somewhere else just to reset. He also just, sleeps like a teenage boy in a movie where he’s spread out in odd angles)
#16: If your oc could only eat one thing for the rest of their life (while miraculously not suffering from malnutrition), what would it be? Does this match their favourite food?
I don’t Brim cares too much about food, but they definitely have a sweet tooth, so I’m thinking pie? Then they can have a variety of sweet pies like chocolate and cherry and VERY OCCASIONALLY they’ll spice it up with shepherds pie.
(Listen, thinking about only one flavor of food is depressing so let me have this by saying you can have different flavors of the same basic food)
Atom... I’m not sure. My gut reaction is pizza, but that may be my own brain speaking. If I say spaghetti or noodles can that count for any dish like Fettuccine Alfredo and Mac n Cheese? To be fair, Atom, when posed with this question, would try his best to find a loophole, so I think saying noodles is definitely something he’d do. There’s so many options there! (Does he invent a dessert pasta seven years into his same food eating sentence? Absolutely.)
