2, 8, and 12 <3
2. What makes them smile the brightest?
Saccharine as shit, of course, but seeing those they care about happy. If we want to get very specific, the brightest smiles would probably be seeing their partner or their metamour happy. Seeing them beam is enough to light a smile on Pukh’s face, too. Alternatively, if we want to take out the low-hanging fruit, research breakthroughs that took a lot of effort would be one as well. Especially if it’s something that they know nobody in the krewe could have ever dreamed of figuring out.
8. What is your OC’s favorite joke?
Regrettably, probably one that wouldn’t be well-liked by others, haha! Pukh was an Absolute Mess during most of LW3, overall, and just like in Heart of Thorns, slept very little. Cue the trip to Siren’s Landing, and overhearing the below dialog. In the sleep-deprived state, it was the funniest thing they’d ever heard. If you’ve ever been really, really depressed, and had those little breaks in it when you just feel that emotion trickle back through...? It was a moment like that.

12. If your OC has to describe their best friend, how would they describe them?
If we’re going to exclude partners/metamours/exes/etc, then we’re probably looking at Phari, in that case, or Aithne. I’ll go over both for ease, considering that.
Pukh would describe Aithne as “What Scarlet could have been,” with as much reverence in tone as something that ominous requires. They’d wax poetic about how Aithne’s dedication to both selfishness and the Greater Good create a combination that really didn’t belong in Sylvari, cite her as an honorary Asura, would mention dozens of inventions and gadgets that had proven invaluable, things like that. A description of Aithne would probably gloss entirely over her physical appearance, too, instead focusing on all that she’d accomplished, for better or worse.
Phari, on the other hand, would end up with a COPIOUS amount of physical description. She’s huge. Enormous. Everything about her is Large. Eyes, heart, rack, everything. Not all the comments would be flattering, of course; it’s less nice to tell them about how when you met, the friend was basically a feral cat and actually left you needing stitches. (Not that they have room to talk there...) Pukh would probably bring up a lot more in the way of color, too. Would comment on how bright her hair is, how her skin tone contrasts with her boyfriend’s, the way her fur looks when she’s shifted. Pukh has very few Norn friends, and they’d go out of their way to make sure that the woman’s scale was properly explained.
@foxholemonster ty for the asks!!
