ALL THE NUMBERS.
☯ Is there a muse you’ve always wanted to play?
Yeah, of course. I’ve always wanted to play basically all of Kim Raver’s characters. Ha, too bad the majority of the roleplay fandoms for those shows are dead, though.
♣ Is there an author(s) that you look up to with your writing skills?
I’m sad to say that I don’t read a whole lot of classic literature, so no names are really jumping out to me in my mind right now. Well, none other than Emily Bronte/the Bronte sisters anyway, at least.
♧ Is there an RP partner(s) that you credit for becoming a better writer?
There’s definitely a few of them who always amaze me with their writing. Oddly enough, they’ve each played my character’s mothers at some point. Two of them don’t write anymore, at least not on this website anyway, but the other one is obviously dr-teddyaltman.
♥ What’s your favorite ship with your muse?
That’s easy. Hands down, it’s Tyler and Delia. They started out as best friends who weren’t supposed to become anything more than that, but they had other plans for their muns, and I don’t know about Alex, but I absolutely love it. You can have chemistry in roleplay like actors do on television, right? Because OTP for sure with these two.
♡ Would you ever write a poly ship?
No, I don’t think so. That’s just me and my opinion, though.
♦ What’s an AU that you’ve always wanted?
I don’t know it this makes me sound like a terrible person or not, but I’ve always wanted to explore the mess of a cheating storyline. Like, whether it be Henry/Teddy or Tyler/Delia who cheats on their significant other. Also, Delia being diagnosed with VHL when she’s younger. Like, either Henry is still alive, but she’s the one to either almost die or die instead of him, or she dies and goes to be with him in Heaven, once again leaving Teddy all on her own. There’s a whole lot of other angsty AU things that I want, but I’m just grateful to have a partner like Angie who will basically go on the journey with me and make things even angstier than my original suggestions.
♢ What’s an AU that you think just won’t work with your muse?
Honestly, I don’t feel like Delia falling down the rabbit hole that is drugs would ever quite work for her. It’s just not who she is, AU or no AU. And it’s not in her family history, either, so I don’t feel like she’d be the one to start a pattern, much less be tempted by at least that form of peer pressure.
♔ What’s your opinion on teacher/student verses? Do you have any of these as threads?
I don’t have any threads like this going on right now with Delia, but I can’t say that I would be utterly opposed to it, though. I mean, Charles and Nico started out as a teacher/student relationship over on Lipstick Jungle, so if it was something like that then it’s possible that I would be willing.
♕ Do you like magic!anons? Why or why not?
Umn, I don’t really understand what magic!anons are supposed to be. I mean, I just looked it up, and some of them seem like they might be somewhat intriguing, but others are like no thank you. I guess it just depends on what they send, or whatever. Yeah, this makes more sense in my head. Oops.
⚜ What is the best time to write for you? Why?
For me, the best time to write is usually at night. That’s the time when things are pretty much all quiet, and I don’t have to worry about being interrupted or any outside noises distracting me.
★ What type of historical AU would you like to do one day?
To be honest, I’ve never really thought about this question before. I don’t really know what sort of historical AU I would be interested in doing with Delia. I guess I’ll have to think some more on this one.
☆ What type of fantasy AU would you like to do one day?
Yeah, I’m not really sure what I would do with Delia for this one, either. I guess it could be interesting if she was still able to interact with Henry somehow, despite the fact that he died. Like, maybe she’s the only one who has contact with him for some reason, so while she can still see him and talk to him, Teddy can’t. Gotta love how my mind goes directly too the angst, huh?
☄ Do you think your muse would have liked going to high school sports games? Do you or did you go to high school sports games?
Delia is involved with dance and a little bit of cheerleading, so it’s kind of mandatory for her to attend the sports games for her high school. I think it’s fun to explore that part of her life as well, to be honest. So yeah, I think she would enjoy it for the most part. I know I always did when I was in high school. I still even like to go back sometimes, actually.
☾ Do you like writing smut? Why or why not?
Honestly, I don’t really care to write smut. One reason is because I can promise you that I wouldn’t be any good at it at all. Secondly, Delia’s technically a teenager, so even though she’s not the save it until marriage type, that doesn’t mean she needs it to be written out for the whole world to see, if that makes sense. Finally, on the completely random and off chance that Kim Raver (or even Shonda, because I swear she has before) were to come across this blog, I would really rather not have her see that type of stuff all over the place. Just sayin’.
☽ Do you like writing angst? Why or why not?
Have you met me? No lie, angst gives me so much life. I live and breathe the stuff. The angstier the better, to be honest with you. I mean, fluff is nice and fun in it’s own way, don’t get me wrong. It just doesn’t compare with the heart wrenching feelings that angst gives me, though. Like, especially when it comes to Teddy and Delia. Ugh, my perfect babies.
☼ What’s an FC that you’re dying to use? Why?
Ha, I’m dying to use Kim Raver and have whatever character I’m using her for actually take off and be incredibly successful. If you want me to choose someone else, though, I would have to admit that a part of me misses using Hayden Panettiere and Nina Dobrev. Oh, and Dana Delany. As for why, I just love their work and all that fun stuff.
☀ What’s an FC that you desperately want to play with? Why?
Not gonna lie, I’m always going to want to write with any Kim Raver character that comes along. I also just really want to write with all of the Scott Foley characters as well. Like, I need a permanently active Henry more than [almost] anything else in this world right now. Delia misses her dad so, so much, and I really want to perfect that father/daughter relationship the way I’ve gotten to with Teddy and Delia’s mother/daughter one. Also, if someone wanted to give us a Robert Buckley, Bobby Cannavale, Eddie Cibrian, or Kiefer Sutherland, that would be absolutely amazing as well.
☁ What’s an FC that you refuse to play with? Why?
I don’t really feel like it’s fair for me to not write with someone simply because I don’t care for their playby, but I don’t feel like I would have as much fun if they were using someone like Tom Cruise. Again, that’s just me and my opinion.
☂ How does your muse spend a rainy day? How do you spend a rainy day?
Delia lives in Seattle, so she’s used to the rain. It doesn’t really bother her or hinder her from doing anything that she wouldn’t normally do in her daily routine. Sometimes she’ll even play in it. On the other hand, I usually like to spend it curled up on the couch watching television, reading a book, or surfing the internet on my laptop.
☃ If your muse was cartoonized, what would their FC be? Why?
Hmmm, good question. I’m not really sure, and I don’t really watch a lot of present day cartoons, so let’s just go with Angelica Pickles from Rugrats. Like, the All Grown Up version, of course.
☺ What’s a character that you desperately want your muse to play with? Why?
Like I said earlier, I’m not ever going to stop wanting all the interactions with Henry. I also think that it would be really fun if Delia got the chance to meet Henry’s sister and brother-in-law. Like, she has at least two cousins out there in Prague who probably have no idea she exists. Also, Teddy’s mom. Even though Teddy’s been estranged since she went against her mother’s wishes to enlist in the Army, I just think threads between the two could be really interesting. Basically, Delia needs family, because literally all she has in this world is Teddy. Well, and sometimes Henry. But it’s mainly just Teddy and Delia against the world.
☹ What’s a character that you refuse to play with? Why?
To be fair, I feel like the only time I would flat out refuse to write with someone was if they were a character would would put a plethora of triggering things on my dash that my followers would have to see on a daily basis. Even with proper tagging, I still wouldn’t want to do that to anyone. Again, this makes more sense in my head, but anyway.
☢ Are there any ships that you would like to write for one day? Any that you wouldn’t?
Yeah, there’s a lot of ships that I want to play out. There’s Kim Zambrano/Bobby Caffey, Kim Zambrano/Jimmy Doherty, Nico Reilly/Kirby Atwood, Audrey Raines/Jack Bauer, etc. I’m also always wanting to develop Delia/Tyler further as well, of course. As for any ships that I wouldn’t want to write for, I think I’ll just keep those unpopular opinions all to myself.
☣ What’s one thing that will make you drop a thread?
If the other person sounds incredibly out of character to me, it’s possible that I might drop it. Or if they reply with something that has to do with my main trigger. Fortunately, the latter hasn’t ever happened before, so that’s a plus. I don’t really drop a lot of threads, because I always feel guilty about it if I do, but those are a couple of the main reasons why I would. And yes, I know the first one doesn’t make a lot of sense, because everyone views characters differently. Oh well.
♨ What’s a muse that you wished had lasted, but didn’t?
I wish that MySpazz hadn’t gone to crap so that all of my Kim Raver muses could have lasted longer than they did. Also, I kind of wish my Edie Britt muse had gone further. Basically, I wish all that all of my favorite roleplay fandoms weren’t so dead so I could actually have more active and successful muses than just Delia.
❀ Do you like reblog karma? Why or why not?
Yeah, I have like no idea what reblog karma even is, so I don’t know if I would like it or not. Whoops.
✿ Do you have a mun FC? If so why did you choose that as your FC, and if not who would you choose?
I do have a mun faceclaim. In the beginning, it was supposed to just be Nico Reilly, but now it’s kind of turned into just Kim Raver in general. I know that might be somewhat confusing, because Delia is Teddy’s daughter and all, but I have no idea who I favor enough to use, so I just went with my favorite actress of all time, because I love her to pieces, and she needs to be appreciated more. That’s all.
♪♩♫ Does music inspire your muse? What’s one song on your playlist that reminds you of your muse?
Music definitely inspires my muse, yes. With that being said, I can’t be listening to music while I’m writing, though. Weird, I know. One song on my playlist that reminds me of Delia would have to be “Little Black Dress” by Sara Bareilles.
✂ Do you like to format your posts? Why or why not?
I normally go along with whatever my writing partner does with their posts, so I don’t mind it for the most part. My OCD doesn’t particularly care for the times when it turns out more messy than pretty and together, but small text is life. On that we can most certainly agree.
✆ Other than RPing, what’s a hobby of yours?
Ha, I’m such a boring person. I like to rewatch my favorite shows. Also, read a book or do some other form of creative writing.
✉ Do you RP on any other platforms?
Yes, I do. I migrated to RPme when MySpazz went to crap, and I also sometimes write on Twitter. That’s about it as of right now, though.
❤ Have you or are you currently in love?
Nope, I am not, nor have I ever been in love. Sad, yet true.
❥ Has something ever happened for you to hate a ship? Why?
I mean, hate is a strong word, but there’s definitely been some people out there in the fandoms who have made me ship certain fictional couples a little bit less, sadly. Yeah, let’s put it that way.
ツ Who has been your favorite muse to play so far? Why?
Out of my canon muses, that honor obviously goes to Kim Zambrano. She’s my favorite television character of all time, and she just went through so much over the years on the show. I loved it. As for my original characters, it’s gotta be Delia. She’s so much more developed than any of my others, and her relationships with other characters are some of my most favorite things ever. She’s been through so much and should be on the show, ha.
回 Which muse was the worst to play? Why?
I love all my muses, each in their own way. I’m not going to point fingers or anything like that, so I’ll just say that once upon a time, I wrote with a group of people who weren’t really all that great. They were hardly ever active, and their writing could have been a lot better. I honestly don’t mean that to be rude, but anyway. Moving on.
✘ People come in a group. If I were to look on your blog, who would I see you interacting with the most?
The number one person would definitely be Delia’s mom, Teddy. I literally can’t explain how much I truly love writing with dr-teddyaltman. She breaks your heart and gives you more feels than you and your muse know what to do with. Even when she thinks her angst is broken, she still sends you threads that prove her theory completely wrong. To make a long story short, she gives me so much muse and brings out some of the best in my writing. I hope our Teddy/Delia threads live on for a really long time, because I’m greedy and want everything. I also write with pxsthumus a lot. It started out with Ellie and Delia as sort of enemies becoming best friends, and I love that. I love how despite their differences, they’re still pretty much each other’s person. And now Mal has a lot more muses, but they’re all so great, and I love writing with them. Like, especially Sadie. Delia enjoys being a little sister, even if she can be a brat a lot of the time. Finally, to complete the group, you’ll probably find me writing a lot with ty-robbins. I’ve basically already covered why Delia wants all the things with Ty, but Alex also has a plethora of other muses, and I love each individual relationship that they have with Delia as well. And all of the above are almost always up for whatever ideas I feel like tossing their way, so that’s always such a treasured gift to find in a writing partner.
ღ Do you have a personal blog? Do you share it with your followers or do you keep it private?
Of course I have a personal blog. It’s supposed to be a multi-fandom blog, but a lot of the time it just turns out to be a Kim Raver appreciation blog. (Not like I don’t already have two others for that specific purpose, oops). But yeah, if anyone wants the link(s), just come to my ask box off anon. I’ll be glad to share it/them with you.
▼ Do you keep your character in character even if they are one of the worst people in the world?
I like to think that I would, unless it was like an AU or something. Then again, all you have to do is look at who Delia’s parents are – especially her father – and you’ll see that I definitely don’t need to worry about her ever being one of the worst people in the world.
▽ Why did you create this muse?
Unfortunately, I was too insecure to write for Teddy, because I was afraid that I would end up making her sound too out of character. I decided to do the second best thing and create her daughter instead. And yeah, I’m so glad that I did, because this blog has been nothing but a whole lot of fun. I’ve met a lot of great people who I hope I’ll be friends with for a long time now, and I still get to give Teddy/Kim more love and appreciation like she deserves, even if I’m not actually playing her. If that makes any sense.
