THE CHARIOT, JUSTICE

The Chariot:Have you ever had to fight for something?        I regularly have to fight for people to take me seriously.

Justice:If you could be a super hero (or villain) what would you call yourself and what powers would you have?         I would like to have the power to interface with any computer system and get it to do what I want. As for superhero/villian (I could go either way) name, "Cypher" maybe?

The Empress and The Emperor

The Empress:What do you desire most?        Huh, I've actually been debating about this for the last few weeks. I haven't exactly come to a conclusion, but knowledge and freedom come to mind really quickly.

The Emperor:Do you have any family traditions?        My mom's side of the family used to gather at her parents house every Sunday night. My grandparents, their 8 children, and about 10 of their grandchildren in a tiny 3 bedroom home every Sunday. But Grandma made the best chocolate chip cookies. Unfortunately, we've pretty much stopped since most of the grandkids grew up and/or moved away & then both my grandparents died. Now it's mostly just for special occations.

10, 24, 41, 47

10. Do you think you’ll have friends from other houses?Most definitely. Admittedly, I’d be intimidated & suspicious of someone from Slytherin at first, but I’d give them the same shot I give everyone else. 

24. Which part of the castle will be your favorite?The astronomy tower. (you saw that coming right) but when I couldn’t get up there, the Great Hall

41. What classes will you take for n.e.w.t.s?I’m not sure how many classes I would be allowed to take, but: Astronomy, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Transfiguration, Herbology, Potions, Charms, & Arithmancy

47. If you were invited to join the slug club, will you accept the invitation?No. Exclusive clubs aren’t really my scene.

Harry Potter! 6, 11, 19, 40, 49

6. What’s the core of your wand?I’m actually really pleased with the wand I ended up with on Pottermore: Length: 10 3/4 in Wood: Cypress Core: Phoenix feather Flexibility: Hard  

11. What will you pack for school?Aside from the assigned stuff, I would definitely bring a ton of books for Hermione-style light reading.

19. On hogsmeade visits, what shops will you go to?I’d probably stick my nose in every place that wouldn’t shoot it off. I’d probably go inside the Shrieking Shack, too :-)

40. What quidditch team (excluding hogwarts houses) will you support?I’m not a sports person, I wouldn’t know any unless someone dragged me to a game. Then I would just cheer for their team & forget its name later.

49. What would your patronus be?I’m not 100% sure. I don’t really know enough about how one chooses. If we’re just going with favorite animal: maybe a bat or fox.

7, 10, 32, 44

I hope this is for the fanfic one =-)

7. One-shots or longfic? While I like both, I slightly prefer longfic. If I'm getting into a fic I just don't want it to end.

10. Favorite trope/element/scenario in fic? Ohh, threeway tie between sharing a room & kissing for a diversion & surprise preganacy. 

32. Favorite AU tropes? I'm not sure I have a preference...

44. How fluffy is too fluffy? I'm not sure I can describe that - I read until there's a point when I'm like "nope" & move one.

Ron, Draco, Lucius, Hagrid

Ron Weasley: Something you’re afraid of? Wasps. Holy crap, I can’t even think about them without shaking a bit. *shudders*

Draco Malfoy: Is it better to be feared or to be loved? Loved. I’d rather people celebrate my life, than my death.

Lucius Malfoy: What is your most prized possession? My Kindle Fire. It seems petty, but I got it a couple years ago from my parents at Christmas. They haven’t really been able to get us anything big since I was really little & my mother had a some money from when her mother had died a couple months earlier. It wasn’t even something I had ever mentioned wanting, but she (& my dad) guessed. 

Rubeus Hagrid: What is your favorite mystical creature? Oh, tough choice. I probably favor Elves over all, but I have a bumper sticker on my car that says “Do not mettle in the affairs of dragons for you are crunchy and good with ketchup” for a reason I suppose.

Luna Lovegood, Albus Dumbledore, Professor Sprout

Luna Lovegood: One thing that makes you different from everyone else. In what sense? Nobody’s completely different from everyone else. There’s always someone who shares an interest, an experience, a personality quirk, appearance.  I’ve had several instances in my life where a complete stranger has confused me for someone else. Not in a “wow, you look similar to my friend” way but in a “quit messing with me Anne” “Dude, I don’t know who the fuck you are, my name’s not Anne” sort of way. I apparently have at least 2 dopplegangers in the world.  I’m not the only vegetarian in the world, I’m not the only person who is obessessed with TV & science. I’m not the only paranormal nut or star trek fan. I’m probably not even the only person in the world who’s had a dream about being abducted by aliens & then spent a decade trying to figure out if they believe it was real or not. Though I do seem to be rather skilled at avoiding answering questions.

Albus Dumbledore: What is the greatest obstacle you have ever overcome in your life? I’m not sure I’ve completely overcome it, yet, but I’m much further along than I used to be - my social anxiety. I’m not sure it was ever anything clinical, but it did affect my ability to do anything very severely. Putting in job applications, talking on the phone, going to class, talking to a freaking store clerk felt like facing a lion. Actually, I’m pretty sure I would rather have faced a lion. 90% of the time, I would just avoid situations that triggered it entirely. Which meant I couldn’t talk to teachers about my assignments or grades, I couldn’t talk to financial aid about tuition, I couldn’t get a job. My parents weren’t believers in therapy, so I dealt with it the best way I could. It’s taken me decades, but I am mostly desensitized to stuff that used to make me literally shake so bad I couldn’t speak - a scene witnessed once by my older brother who laughed awkwardly ‘cause I think it wierded him out. Every now and then it flares up out of nowhere but at least it doesn’t interupt my life anymore. Professor Sprout: What is your favourite class that is offered at Hogwarts? Wow, umm… I most definitely would never miss a Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
