Definitely blacks and greys, but if I have to choose something more colorfull I usually go for warm browns or reds. Or something combined WITH black. I have this one black/yellow flannel that I love.
the sun: do you believe in magic?
I have plenty of wiccan/pagan friends who have made me believe in it more than once.
12. What was your last dream about?Oh boy, I can never remember anymore when it’s late in the evening. I do know one of my friends got a random job at a pharmacy in it even though they aren’t doing anything remotely like it.
20. Are you religious?No
21. Have you ever been to the hospital?Many times! In fact I’m at the hospital almost daily, since I study there
22. Have you ever got in trouble with the law?With all the shit I get up to you’d think so, but nope
23. Have you ever met any celebrities?Just the actors I met at conventions, really!

25. What color socks are you wearing?Black
26. Have you ever been famous?Some guy once got mad because my friends wouldn’t stop talking about me at a party when I wasn’t there so you could say I’m a pretty big deal haha sure
27. Would you like to be a big celebrity?Nah, I don’t see why. Although being known for doing some real quality research in the future would be cool.

29. Have you ever been skinny dipping?Nah, I have always been really self-conscious about my body
32. How big is your house?It’s a free-standing house with 3 upstairs bedrooms and a bathroom, a livingroom-diningroom-kitchen combi not separated by walls downstairs, my mom’s physiotherapy practice, the downstairs bathroom and laundry room and an extra room that I’m going to snatch up to turn into my cosplay room soon.
42. Are you a good judge of character?Usually, although I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt even when I know some things will come back to bite me in the arse.
ALL WITH 2 THAT ARE LEFT cuz five proved to be a short list

2:Talk about your first kiss.Ehh the first one that ‘mattered’ was when I was on a trip to Canada. There was a guy I’d been with for a while, and we were sitting on his front porch when he suddenly moved in. We were about to kiss when my dad suddenly popped up like “DO YOU KIDS WANNA HANG OUT??”. So yeah I got dad-blocked. We still kissed a day later in the middle of the forest though. Dad-block is just more memorable.
12:Talk about the worst dream you've ever had.I never find nightmares all that awful because I wake up with a huge adrenaline rush and it feels kind of exciting. Usually I find the dreams that hit a little too close to home and that make me feel good in the dream about something that is absolute shit in reality much, much worse.
20:Talk about something that happened in high school.Oh gosh that’s long ago okay- All of us have to do a final project of sorts during our last year. You work in teams within a subject (or combination of subjects) that fits within your curriculum, and a friend and I picked chemistry and worked on fire retardance. The day of our big, final presentation in front of everyone he had an appointment for his absolutely HORRID hayfever, but those always left him feeling... well.. kind of high. So I got to school to find him sitting there, staring ahead sort of blissfully, and when I asked how he felt the answer was “ahh... as stoned as a shrimp...”. So we went out and did the whole thing despite him feeling high off his ass and me having to stealth-sneak out of it halfway through to find scissors we forgot. We set my dad’s sock on fire and got the highest grade though so it was really amazing.
21:Talk about a time you had to turn someone down.People usually don’t tell me if they have feelings for me. I did have one guy try to get with me and end up stalking me in the process, because he took “no” as an invitation to just sort of creepily try to be ‘too good’ of a friend.
22:Talk about your worst fear.That’d probably be failure. I’m a massive perfectionist and always have this uncomfortable idea in my head that I’m less than others at a lot of things. And this ever persistent hint of fear that I am not qualified for life.
23:Talk about a time someone turned you down.I don’t tend to really ask people out. I got sort of asked out and sort of almost immediately turned down after once? I guess that’s the closest I’d get. Oh and a friend once told this male friend I liked him, and he decided it’d be fun to bring it up in a big group and laugh. I was one of those people who got asked out as jokes for years so I got really guarded about my feelings and suspicious of those of others.
24:Talk about something someone told you that meant a lot.It means a lot to me when people tell me they love my cosplay. I pour a lot of effort and love into my outfits, and tend to be extremely critical of them. I also used to be haunted by this idea I physically wasn’t fit for it. So having people come up and tell me they love it means more to me than they know.
26:Talk about things you do when you're sick.Usually try to get up, have an awful time, go back to bed, try to get up again, have an awful time again, back to bed and repeat. I hate lying around a lot so I always try to push myself.
27:Talk about your favorite part of someone else's body.Oh my god okay, people’s bodies are gorgeous? I guess my favourite part would be very person-specific, although I’m not sure I even have a favourite. I like jawlines and shoulders and backs and stomachs and thighs and lips and people’s individual dips and curves and creases. Spots and scars and all. And people’s hair. I tend to just seriously physically admire people I’m intimate with. And those I’m on a non-intimacy basis with I usually really like the smile of. Or admire their eyes or the way certain looks suit them.
28:Talk about your fetishes.Honestly, I have no idea. I really really like getting someone else off, if that counts. And body worship in a way I suppose.
29:Talk about what turns you on.some roughness (hair pulling, scratching, etc.), passionate make-out sessions that turn a bit sloppy, people who are dressed absolutely on-point, getting a partner off, among other things
32:Talk about a place you remember from your childhoodWe used to visit England every year when I was a child and my parents had friends there. They owned several cottages on a large piece of land, as well as sheep, horses and dogs. We’d stay in one of the cottages, and I remember my brother and I spending endless days playing with their two golden retreivers who would lie in front of our door all morning, waiting until we’d come out to run around with them. The area was also beautiful with grassy hills and strips of forest and so, so many hedges. It always felt like going on some sort of adventure to venture out for a walk. I have really fond memories of that time.
5:Talk about the best birthday you've had.Two years back my friends and I all went to the Efteling in Star Trek outfits for my birthday. That was pretty amazing!
15:Talk about the time you were most content in life.I guess right around the time I was preparing to start a new study. I was confident, I thought I was doing really well, being mature and responsible, and that I had proven I could live a totally normal life with ease.
25:Talk about an ex-best friend.I was really close to a guy at my last study, but we had a mutual friend who I saw a lot too at my study and outside of it. He seemed really kind and fun, wanted to start cosplaying with me too. After a while my friendship with that guy turned strained, secrets of mine were mysteriously ending up with him and the guy started forcing me to have him over all the time and trying to cosy up to me. I started feeling really pressured and he was good mates with my best friend too, so at the point where I was stressed out from pretty much getting stalked in day to day life I lashed out at both of them, because I didn’t really know where the guy was getting all his info and I wanted to get far away from him somehow. In the end I managed to remove myself from the stalker dude, but it also ruined the friendship between me and my best friend.
35:Talk about things you wish you could stop doing.Worrying and overthinking. Also biting my nails, it’s really awful.
💉 - Have Tattoos?Not yet, but I kind of hope to get an appointment soon!
✂️ - Got any Piercings?I used to in my ears, but those grew shut
👌 - Best friend?I have my special inner circle. @redelice, @thorinsbitch, @thorinoakenslut, @deathtableau and @sassassino are definitely in it.
🎤 - Top 5 favorite bands?Oh my god I have no idea. My music taste shifts wildly all the time. I usually hear something new, get insane about it, listen to it forever, grow bored and repeat these steps with new songs.
😒 - Biggest pet peeve?people who low-key force you to do what they want or try to guilt trip you into things
💬 - I wish…I’d finish this damned e-mail and go to bed
💦 - What makes you horny?Thirst things first I guess the right combinations of situations, setting, feelings, person, etc.?
🔥 - Something spicy you like?A local Indonesian take-away makes this insanely spicy beef that’s somehow really good even though it will burn out your mouth
👊 - Something you hate?Being used by people for selfish reasons. I like people to just be open with me and show their intentions
💬 - Can we text?Don’t we?
💍 - Marry me?Am I getting the ring now?
💘 - Top 5 celebrity crushes?It tends to change, although I have noticed somehow my celebrity crushes are always male despite me being bi. Now I’m more into the fictional character crushes though.
📺 - Top 5 favorite TV shows?Not in any order, but I love Star Trek, Firefly,
✈️ - Where are you from?The Netherlands
🙈 - What makes you shy?New people, especially older people
💏 - Do you love anyone?Of course!
🌴 - A island you would visit?I don’t have any particular islands in mind, although I absolutely love to travel so anywhere would be amazing
🌀 - Favorite type of weather?A bit fresh, sunny, slight breeze so it’s not too hot, not too cold.
📱 - What kinda phone do you have?A slowly failing one, mostly
📚 - Career goal you want?Currently I’m aiming for biomedical research. I really hope for a PhD position in the Immunology or Regenerative Medicine direction (although biofabrication has also definitely caught my eye).
🍭 - Favorite Candy?I love to try many different kinds, but jelly beans have a special place in my... uh... stomach
🚘 - Dream car(s)?I have a soft spot for cars that make me think of a high-tech spacecraft to be honest, but at this point I’d settle for anything that drives and doesn’t cost too much to keep
🚑 - Have you ever driven in an ambulance before?Yes
🚼 - Do you have or want kids?I don’t have any. I have thought about having them in the future and there are aspects of being a dad that appeal to me. I don’t think it’d be a necessity to live a fulfilling life for me though
🐶 - Do you own a pet?I’m getting a cat! During my summer break when I have the time to pick it up myself and be around it to bond and make sure it doesn’t wreck the house in the first weeks.
😡 - What pisses you off?When people are absurdly selfish. I tend to feel guilty for putting a lot on someone else, so I get easily annoyed when people shamelessly use other people’s generosity as if it’s a given they get it, but are nowhere to be found when they are needed.
I’m terrible at choosing, so just have the first five then!
5. Are you in love?I’ve noticed the idea of being in love frightening me a tad. I’m genuinely worried people will not accept or like me the way I am, or somehow be disappointed by me. It’ll probably take quite a bit for me to trust that way again.
15. Do you have any piercings?I used to have pierced ears, but those grew shut. Sometimes I do miss it!
25. Do you want to be in a relationship this year?I was earlier this year. If there’s someone else I grow close to I wouldn’t be opposed to it. I’m dense as can be though, so someone would have to be very blunt.
35. Have you ever kissed someone older than you?I think everyone was either my age or younger, but I’m not sure.
45. How many people did you kiss in 2012/2013?Oh boy.... ehm, my guess is one

Love my ideas? Nugget, my ideas are usually the ones that get you into terrible cosplay pain, unwanted character feelings and lots of trouble. But my new fantastic idea is to play CAH all weekend while I recover because I’ll be bored out of my skull. Deal? Deal <3
