Rules: Answer the questions as yourself or as an OC of your choice
I was tagged by @artcoffeecats! Thank you for still tagging me in fun things even though I'm never here <3 You're the best!
My tags are: @cydneydaemon, @rachaellawrites, @ashirisu, @dewiwrites, @brieflyinfatuated, @scribe-of-stories and whoever else wants to play because that's all I can think of off the top of my head!
Okay I'm totally stealing Mary's idea of answering as two MCs (one in bold, one in italics) and having them banter back and forth (go see their original post, it's so cute) because it looks like so much fun!
I'll answer as Jamie Prowse and River Gray from my latest WIP:
1. Are you named after anyone?
Yeah, my Grandpa on my Dad's side! He was so chill. Took me to my first Seahawks game. I'm not much of a 'James,' though. Jamie is fine.
Couldn't tell you. My mother never told me, and I don't care enough to ask her.
2. When was the last time you cried?
Like, yesterday, probably? I saw a really cute dog.
The night I moved in with my brother. And Jamie, by proxy. It was a momentary lapse in control that won't happen again, trust me.
No, but I think I'd like to have them someday.
Uhh--maybe we should table this conversation, yeah?
No, no. We're having it right now.
Omg look over there, what's that? *points, runs away*
I never used to, but I've been doing it a lot more since River moved in. I think it's contagious.
Fortunately for me, stupidity isn't contagious.
5. What's the first thing you notice about people?
Eyes, easy. They tell you a lot. And, uhh, I have this weird superpower where I can gauge a person's mental state pretty much instantly. Like, if they're okay or not.
He's not kidding. It's creepy. For me it's whether or not the person is a threat.
*scoffs* How often are people actually threats, though?
More often than you'd think.
6. What's your eye color?
Hazel, like my dad's! They remind me of the woods back home. I like them, they're one of my best features!
He's being modest. They're, this--like--rich, dark, midnight blue. They're gorgeous.
*grins* You loved it, shut up.
7. Scary movies or happy endings?
Ooh, I love scary movies!
It's fine, Riv, there's nothing wrong with liking happy endings! It's cute!
Shut up. I just think... you watch a movie or read a book to escape, right? There's enough pain in the world as it is. Why willingly put yourself through more when you could choose joy instead?
He thinks the fact that I can speak French is a talent. I don't really see it that way, though. I don't know... photography is a talent. I'm good at that.
And writing! He's a great writer, especially poems. My talent is bass. Oh, and cooking! Those are pretty much the only things I'm really great at.
*Frowns* Not the only things.
Is being annoying a talent?
You're so mean. Wait, is making people laugh a talent? That counts, right? I can make pretty much anyone laugh if I really try.
Yeah, Jamie. That counts. *smiles*
Seattle born and bred, baby!
Bordeaux, France. Didn't stay long after, though.
10. What are your hobbies?
Playing bass. Songwriting. Jamming with the roomies. Can it still be a hobby if it's also your career?
I hope so, because I was going to say photography. I also enjoy hiking and poetry--reading and writing.
Hey, focus on your own hobbies.
Not yet, but someday we're getting a dog. Right, Riv?
Seriously? You know I'm a cat person. Having a dog is one step below having an actual child, you realize that, right? You can't even keep a fish alive.
Ye of little faith. Besides, cats are scary.
12. What sports do you play/have played?
I played football for like five minutes in high school, but it was interfering with band stuff. Does watching football count?
I dunno, 6'2? Tall enough to be constantly hitting my head on shit.
He's just a cute lil guy. Just the cutest, ittiest, bittiest--
14. Favorite subject in school?
Music class! That's a cop out, right? It's true though. I liked it. Plus, my music teacher was a total fox. *grins* Ms. Dawson. I wonder how she's doing these days.
Aww. I just wanted to see if you'd get jealous. Okay, you go!
Classic lit. Took it as an elective in college. I much preferred it to my business and finance courses.
I have my dream job. Playing music for a living with my best friends.
I suppose I have mine, too. Shooting photos of my brother and Jamie playing music with their best friends for a living. Not the direction I expected my life to take, but I'll take it.
