Fic Rec. Cullen/Lavellan. A modern military AU, which was not something I thought I was into, but sweet Maker was I wrong. Forbidden attraction is totally my thing, and both Cullen and Lavellan are utterly adorable.

  Questions:

  1) If you could go back in time and name yourself when you were born, what name would you give yourself?

Erm, that’s a toughie because I like my name, I think it suits me. Maybe I would pick something really weird/unusual just to mix it up a bit. When I was younger I really loved the name Aurora, you know from Sleeping Beauty? So I would probably change it to something like that.

2) If you could go back in time and assassinate one person, besides Hitler, who would it be?

Oh man, this one is hard. I don’t see myself as a very good assassin and I am quite the pacifist. Maybe I would do go back and stop someone else being assassinated. Like assassinate the guy that assassinated Martin Luther King before he managed to do it.

3) Have you ever snogged a member of the same sex?

A couple of times when I was younger. Nowadays I am just a fan of the D.

4) Who was your main celebrity crush as a teen?

I had a few, I would say my main one was Colin Firth, I asked for Pride & Prejudice on video when I was 9 and I think he was top of the list as soon as I came aware of the opposite sex!

More embarrassing teen crushes include Gareth Gates and Adam Rickett. (I doubt anyone who is not English will have heard of them.)

5) What were the names of your childhood pets?

I had two dwarf Siberian hamsters (the kind you that can live in pairs) called Spyro and Sparks after Spyro the dragon and his dragonfly companion :-D 

6) What’s the cruelest practical joke you’ve ever played on someone?

I have a brother that’s 8 years younger than me and when he was really little (I don’t remember how old, like 5 or 6?) I put on this Gollum mask that he had because he loved Lord of the Rings, crept into his room and woke him up. He screamed the place down, started crying and I had to get in bed with him till he went back to sleep. I’m pretty sure I was supposed to be babysitting him or something.

7) The Green Goblin holds over the edge of a bridge your Love in one hand and a bus full of random children in his other. Who do you save? (Assuming you’re not as awesome as Spiderman and can’t save everyone)

Random children. I could never let a whole group of people lose their children for the sake of my own feelings. Plus, I know my boyfriend and I doubt he would even forgive me if I saved him over a load of children, I would expect him to do the same if the roles were reversed! And if I was with someone who would expect me to let a load of kids die for them then I probably wouldn’t want to be with them anyway!

8) Let’s do that time-honoured deserted island question: Three things you’d want to have with you if you were stranded on an island?

A copy of Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte – I could read that book over and over again and never tire of it.

Do people count? I would totally strand my boyfriend with me so I had some company. If people don’t count then I want like a full size male doll so I can go all I am Legend and just set it up in various time, talking a way to it like a crazy person.

And probably something practical like a knife to cut coconuts and wood for a shelter and stuff.

9) If you could buy one super expensive item with no price limit (and not allowed to sell it back for the cash afterwards), what would you choose?

A stately home to live in, with a massive library so I can grab a copy of Pride & Prejudice and run around pretending I was Elizabeth Bennett in Pemberley. And a swimming pool so I could get really fit from doing loads of swimming because it’s one of the few forms of exercise I don’t hate.

10) Which of the 7 Deadly Sins do you think you’ve committed the most times in your life?

Lust. Definitely. I am a walking bag of lust. My tumblr is testimony of this.

11) What is Your Quest? (Barring “To Seek the Holy Grail” as an answer)

It’s not very exciting but my quest is to find my current quest is to find my first proper job! My side quest is to finish my fanfic as I am currently being defeated by the next chapter.

My Questions:

1) What prompted you to join tumblr?

2) Who is the most important person in your life?

3) Do you have a favourite author?

4) If money was no object, where in the world would you like to travel to and why?

5) Do you have a real life (non-fictional) OTP?

6) What is the weirdest thing about you?

7) What is the most annoying thing that someone could do to you?

8) If you could have any job in the world what would it be?

9) Who is your most embarrassing celebrity crush?

10) If you could instantly develop one skill/ability/talent what would it be?

11) If you could be anyone throughout history for one day who would you pick and why?

It's not an anonymous message, but one thing I not so secretly like about you is your kind, sweet, incredibly supportive and loyal nature. You stood up for me when nearly everyone turned against me because of that Isabela Confession post a couple of months ago, and I'll never, ever forget that, Love you, qun! <3

And I would do it again.  And again and again because you are worth it and more.  Never be afraid to speak your mind.  Ever.  And know that, even if your opinion totally differs from mine, I've always got your back. :)
