#oc interview asks

[swtorcompanionsgoofin]

I send an Interview askie for Skaia (the best boy)—be prepared it's a Bunch òwó

3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 15 and 16 ✨🌸✨🌸✨

Have fun beloved 💙

3. How would you describe your childhood? "Fucking awful. Painful, isolated, I was... an asset, not a child. I'm glad so many of the people who were in it are dead now. No one deserves that kind of childhood. No one."

4. When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? "Free. There wasn't a lot of room for wanting anything, for hope or ambition. I just wanted to be free. To be alive and free-- to not be so hurt and afraid anymore. I'm free now. I'm alive. I'm working on healing the rest."

5. Do you have any role models? Tell us a little bit about them. "Role models? I don't think so-- never really had anyone to look up to, or to aspire to be. Most of the people that COULD have been role models were people I wanted to NEVER be so... does that count?"

6. Are you introverted or extroverted? Why? "Introverted, for certain. I don't get energy from people, they tend to exhaust me. Don't get me wrong, I love my friends-- I just know that if I want to recharge it's got to be one-on-one or alone. Sylvas is an exception-- I can spend the whole day with them and not be exhausted socially. That's probably just what it's like to be in love though-- I don't know if there are any further factors."

7. How would you describe yourself in three words? "Uhm... survival, fear and... love. Yes, yes I think love works. It wouldn't have before but now? I think yes, it works now."

10. What's your biggest goal? How do you hope to achieve this? "My biggest goal? Uh... I guess get... better? Overall? Try to repair some of the damage done when I was younger, when I was helpless. When I was... hurt. I'm in therapy now so, I guess that's in part how I'll achieve that. I also have friends now, so that's... that helps. Khatte's been really good with that, and it would have taken me much longer to open up to my therapist without his vote of confidence."

15. Who is the most important person in your life? Why? "Sylvas. No question, no contest, none of it. They... saved me. From a horrible life, a horrible fate. They were the first person to ever care about me and they're the love of my life. They showed me what it was like to be cared for, loved, to be WANTED for something other than what I could sacrifice. That? That's worth everything."

16. Do you believe in soulmates? Why or why not? "I... I don't-- it's-- I... didn't. It's not something I'm supposed to think about, it's not something I SHOULD be thinking about. Or addressing it's..." He crosses his arms, shoulders up by his ears, anxious. "I think I do believe. I shouldn't. I KNOW I shouldn't-- but the Bond I have with Sylvas-- with their heart beating next to mine every moment of the day? They are half of everything I am, I live my life with every breath taken knowing they're there, if that isn't soulmates, I don't know what is."

[hero-deserves-to-be-happy]

He isn't an oc but you said canon characters were okay too so can you do 22 and 24 for Hero? thx

Oh absolutely, Anon! We would be happy to answer any of the questions for Hero always! We love talking about him and actually have a lot of headcanons about #24 (his love language) so thank you for asking that! In fitting with the game though, we'll answer these questions in Hero's POV (or at least will try our best to). We hope you'll like what we come up with! Thank you and take care! 💙

(These are post-good ending and have some OMORI spoilers. We also added some game sprites because we thought it would be fun 😁)

HERO Answers:

22. What's the easiest way to flirt with you?

Oh...uh...do people flirt with me? I'd really rather they didn't...

It's very flattering, but um...honestly I haven't really been interested in any of that ever since Mari...

But I can still try to answer for you… Mari always said I wasn't very good at picking up her (apparently extremely obvious) signals, so I'm honestly not sure if I'd even recognize that someone was flirting with me. 😅 I was honestly pretty oblivious back then, and I think I still am. Apparently, my friend Brandi tried to flirt with me when Kel, Sunny, and I visited her house on the day before Sunny was supposed to move away, but I didn't notice that either. In that case though, I think that's just Brandi being Brandi haha and we're just good friends so she didn't really mean anything by that.

But in Mari's case...we really did care about each other in that way and were sweethearts so...I really probably should have picked up on her flirting a little bit more. She used to tease me a lot and compliment me. I'm not sure I really realized she was flirting until she was just really direct about it, though, like just flat-out calling me "good looking." She'd wink at me with this bright, teasing smile and get this sort of laughing look in her eyes before she'd just start giggling and I'd blush and get flustered which would just make her giggle even more.

Mari loved to tease to show affection. I think that's something we had in a common because I like to do that too, but in a bit of a dryer, more subtle way than Mari, I think. She was much more playful and giggly about it than I ever was, so it was a little different but still the same kind of thing.

I don't think that's just a romantic thing though. We both teased our siblings and our friends a lot too. I used to tease Kel all the time when we were closer, but...um...I'm not sure we have that kind of relationship anymore so I don't do too much of that these days.

Honestly, I don't think I tease anyone too much these days, not even in a friendly way but especially not in a romantic one. But I suppose I still like that sort of playful teasing as a way to show affection. I guess flirting would fall in that category too...maybe? I'm not sure.

24. What would you consider your main love language?

Definitely Acts of Service. I've always really loved doing things for people and taking care of them. It's one of the reasons I've always loved to cook for my friends and family!

I try to be mindful of other people's love languages too though, and try to figure out what my family and friends' love languages are so I can try my best to speak it for them.

Kel loves giving people things for instance. He gave me a cookbook just for coming home from college for the summer which was very thoughtful. I try to buy him thoughtful gifts too, and sometimes will pick fun little things up for him "just because," and he seems to really appreciate that.

Sunny's love language is definitely quality time, and now that he has moved to the City, I try to make a point to meet up with him and take him around to lots of my favorite spots around town. He loves going to my favorite coffee shop (probably because it's close to a mattress store haha), but I've taken him to a lot of parks and museums too or sometimes we just hang out at his apartment and watch tv or play games.

Mari's love language was quality time too, I think, but she also really liked physical touch. She was very cuddly--a lot more cuddly than me, I think, but I always tried to be more cuddly and affectionate with her because I knew how much it meant to her.

It's not always easy to receive love in the same way we give it away though. I always feel kind of awkward whenever someone wants to do things for me, even though that's how I would want to show love to them. I guess, I just don't want to be a burden on them or cause them any trouble. I'll admit that I always felt so loved whenever Mari would help me do the dishes though.

Tobias and Casey, 2, 9, 11

Ethan and Eva, 13, 20, 24

Hey love! Thanks so much for the asks - I desperately need to spend some time with my blorbos so I appreciate them! ❤️

From this list

Tobias & Casey:

2... Who is your best friend?  Tell us about them!

I think both of them would absolutely say that they are each other's best friends because they are. I don't think all couples are best friends, no matter how much they claim to be. Being a best friend is a special level - you have to be able to tell each other anything without fear of being judged, but you know that they will also be willing to tell you the truth - even if you don't want to hear it. They should be the first person they want to call when something good or terrible happens. They have to enjoy each other's company and laugh together. This is NOT every couple, but it is Tobias and Casey.

But it's important to have other friends, too, and they both know that. For Tobias, his other best friends would be Kerry and Sasha (OCs - more about them here) and Ethan.

For Casey, it would be Sienna and Bryce. She becomes very close with Kerry, too, but always respects the boundary that she is Tobias's best friend. She'd never want to put her in a position to feel she has to choose between them.

9... Are you a spiritual person?  If yes, what do you practice?

The answer here may shock - Casey was not - at all, but Tobias was. He is the perfect way of showing we don't know who people are at their core by what you see on the outside. He wasn't a holy roller, by any means, but he absolutely had strong faith. He grew up attending the church where his paternal great-grandfather was a pastor and a civil rights leader. Church on Sunday was part of his life as a child, he even served on the children's choir (which is where we learned he had a great voice.) Did he live a pious life? Hell no. But did his faith steer him throughout his life? Yes. It did. I wrote a fic about this, Just a Little Faith. Casey was agnostic, leaning toward athiest, and didn't believe in much. But after her near death experience, falling in love with Tobias, and becoming pregnant with their child, she started to have a shift in her point of view. This is one of my favorite fics :)

11... What is your favorite type of media (TV, movie, books, etc)?  Name some specific favorites (which shows, movies, books, etc do you like)!

They kind of like all of them. LOL But they're both avid book readers. I would say that's where they find sustenance, followed by movies. TV is something they enjoy, but it's more for relaxation.

Books: They both love non-fiction most of all, and there are many James Baldwin and Bell Hooks titles amongst their favorites.

Some of Tobias's specific favorites (I'll stick to books since they played a big part in how they fell in love) : The Covenant of Water (Abraham Verghese), Dying: A Memoir (Cory Taylor), Lies My Teachers Told Me (James Loewen), The Return (Hisham Matar), and The Alchemist (Paolo Coelho)

And Casey's: I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (Maya Angelou), All About Love (Bell Hooks), Beloved (Toni Morrison), Atonement (Ian McEwan), and The Invisible Thread (Schroff/Tresniowski).

Ethan & Eva

Man! I really have to get back to that, don't I? lol

13... You’re given an unlimited budget to build anything you want!  What do you build and where do you build it?

Ethan would build a modest but lovely home on a secluded private beach somewhere in New England. Very traditional, think shingle style, surrounded by beautiful landscaping and pure serenity.

Eva would love to have two small homes in her genealogical homelands of Greece and Cuba. Since Cuba is not a possibility at this time, she'd probably build in Puerto Rico or the Dominican Republic. In Greece, it would be on an island, but NOT Mykonos or Santorini! They'd be small, but comfortable, homey places.

20. Describe your biggest pet peeve.

Ethan - Pointless meetings - especially when he has to put up with board members and such.

Eva - Rude people.

24. What would you consider your main love language?

I would say it's quality time for both (however, I have not done the test for them, I have for E/K and T/C lol)

Thanks so much for asking! :)

[hold-him-down]

12 for both Luke and Leo, but let Leo answer first! (For the interview ask game)

response to this ask thing:

"If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be?"

"Oh," Leo says, glancing nervously at Luke. "I... I haven't really given it much thought. I... whenever I have gotten to travel anywhere with past buyers, it's always been... I don't know, it's usually kind of hard. Security and... paperwork and stuff. There are all these clearances; vaccines and doc..." He swallows. "Sorry, this isn't the question." He rubs his hands on his pants, fidgeting nervously, and then very purposefully stops himself. He lets his hands rest at his sides. He clears his throat. "I like the idea of visiting somewhere warm, maybe somewhere kind of remote. We keep seeing ads for these little cabanas on the water. I think those might be nice, just to get away from everything."

Blue eyes meet black and Luke's hand covers Leo's, squeezing it gently.

"I think traveling to some remote island sounds great,” Luke agrees. “I get nervous flying over the ocean, but it's always worth it. I love traveling to new places, I'm not very picky about where. If I were to go permanently, it'd be to New Zealand or something, somewhere that will almost definitely not follow the footpaths of the U.S. But I wouldn't move away from here until things are... better, I think. There’s too much work to do."

8. What do you think had the biggest impact on you growing up?

Josslyn; Zara Ideale, 100%. I did always wondered why his death impact my dad so much but years later I did come to the conclusion that I was treated unfairly by the upper class, due to being a peasants child, so I came up with a plan.

13. You’re given an unlimited budget to build anything you want!  What do you build and where do you build it?

Josslyn; To be honest if I had the choice I would rebuild every village for the ones who are kind to everyone and deserve the entire world, but receive the absolute lowest of the low. So um rebuild Tolsa Village!

24. What would you consider your love language?

Josslyn; When they drop dead.

my best friend? like, my absolute best friend in this whole entire world? you mean…Vixen Freakin’ McMahen? the most chaotic little gremlin in the world? no no, don’t misinterpret that, they’re also the most lovable creature on the planet. sure they’re like a niffler and will destroy anything, but they have pure intentions with what they do in life, damnit. my chaotic twin, the yin to my yang, or what have you. an absolute ray of sunshine. they’re the absolute best friend I could ever ask for, and if it came down to it, I’d die for them. simple as that, really.

wanna interview an oc?

[swtorcompanionsgoofin]

1, 2, 8, 11, 19 for Skaia!

1. Please state your full name and occupation. "I-- hello, my name is Vitas'kai'anaf, my title is Darth Sangicordiae. I am Sith, and while not very... attentive, I function in official capacities at the head of Biotic Sciences. Largely I keep out of the way, the people actually doing the bulk of the WORK in this sphere don't deserve to have their work uprooted everytime there's a new Sith taking control. And, alright admittedly I don't want to be NEEDED every three minutes by people. I don't like meetings."

2. Tell us a little bit about yourself. "Oh, well, I don't quite know what to say about myself-- I'm, well I'm Chiss, to start with the obvious I suppose. I'm a second-generation Sith and was born and raised on Dromund Kaas. I was very... isolated. Growing up. I like animals? I'm not attracted to women? I don't know what you're supposed to say when someone asks for 'a little about yourself'-- is there a script of reasonable topics for this kind of question?" He looks around, sitting up perfectly straight but still subtly stimming with his hands. "I have a banshee, she's really sweet. She's been with me for years." (the banshee hates most people, and can and will bite, stab, or impale them, just, y'know, not when he's looking)

8. What do you like to do for fun? "Well I know WHO I like to do for fun-- heheh. But that's probably something I should save for when I'm, not doing an interview. Aside from that lovely bit of entertainment, I like reading. I also like aerial hoops, silks, ropes and all that. Suspended in the air, nothing but yourself and the material in the whole galaxy, it's wonderful."

11. What does your dream room/house look like? Would you mind showing us some inspiration pictures? "Well, I do already pretty much have my dream place. The best home is where Sylvas is, and I get to live that every day-- and, well, for security reasons I probably shouldn't divulge too much about what our home looks like. What I CAN say, is that I like soft blankets, little plants, and a nice, quiet, dark place to sit when the universe gets to be too much. A good hammock strung across a corner of a room, padded flooring underneath? Perfect."

19. Describe an average day in your life. "Oh shit. I... an AVERAGE day? I'm... I don't actually know what average looks for me like that-- it really all depends on the type of day I'm having. I suppose average is... waking up, a lot of the time Sylvas is still in bed with me, and I'm laying on top of them, sometimes they've already started their day ahead of me, let me sleep in longer. I take my medication, I try to get up while it kicks in. Mornings are slow, sometimes I spend the rest of my day curled up in bed, sometimes there's other things to do-- it really depends. The average day probably isn't anything to write home about-- there's my animals to take care of, work I should Probably do more than I Actually do, sometimes I just... don't have the energy for it. Nighttime is nice though, when Sylvas comes home from all the paperwork and the files, where we can eat together, curl up, talk, fuck, sleep-- whatever the heart wants at any given moment. It's lovely. And I get to listen to their heartbeat when I fall asleep, get them to rest for as long as I can. I really do love just... the quiet moments."

[swtorcompanionsgoofin]

9, 12, 20 for Skaia :)

9. What's your greatest achievement? Why do you consider this your greatest achievement? "My greatest achievement? Well... finding love. Having friends. Knowing people in my life that care about me-- I... I know, it's kind of pathetic. I'm aware. But I grew up not having any of that, and the fact that I CAN have it is... That's a victory. I have people to turn to now, and I'm working on letting myself turn to them. That feels like a pretty big achievement to me."

12. How would you describe your style? "Slutty, colourful, and on occasion MAJORLY comfy. If you got it, you might as well flaunt it, and I DO."

20. Describe your nighttime routine. "I don't know if I have a... routine, per se-- more just. Night happens, the bed is comfy, I get Sylvas into bed however I can, sometimes we have fun-- a LOT of times, when has anyone ever seen us have an easy time keeping our hands off each other? I mean, have you SEEN them? Those pretty freckles, soft lips, warm and so talented-- UH, anyways. It's. They have a routine for self-care things, I like helping, and I like curling up with them afterwards and sleeping right up against them. Warm, loved. It's. Great. To put it mildly."
