30, 44, 65?

30. think of it: have you ever been truly scared?

Yes. So when my youngest sister was three, I would have been...eight or nine, I can’t remember exactly. We used to have this piano, because I used to play, as did the middle sister. We were repainting the living room, and so the piano was pulled away from the wall. My mom was taking a shower and my sisters and I decided it was great fun to play behind the piano.

It fell. Not on me, but on both my sisters, the middle sister had her legs and the youngest on her top half. I screamed for my mom and my mom screamed for help down the street, and some of neighbors came running. My little sister was unconscious, there was one guy that came and lifted that thing off like it was nothing.

Even now, years later, knowing that she’s perfectly fine and didn’t break anything, didn’t have a concussion, didn’t anything, they let her leave the hospital the next day, I still get all shaky and terrified thinking about it, even typing this out I’m scared. Don’t worry, though, I chose to type it out and actually I feel kind of relieved, too.

There’s other times I’ve been super scared, too, but I don’t remember what actually happened. Which is terrifying on it’s own.

Okay, onto a happier note.

44. when was the last time you remember feeling completely serene and at peace with everything?

Yesterday! I finished everything school wise, fic wise, life wise (except I forgot to wash the towels, but I’ll do that today), everything’s been paid, I had a good breakfast. All three of the pets were in the living room, Merrill was curled up in the sun, Coral on my lap, Moony on the back of the couch. I had been watching Thunderbirds, but I’d stopped and had my headphones on and leaned back with my eyes closed and just kinda chilled. It felt really really good.

65. is there anyone you haven't seen in a long time who you'd love to hang out with?

Hmmm, yes. I guess it’s less seen, more talked to. I had this friend way back when, when the only online presence I had was fanfiction.net, and I would love to talk to her again, she was funny and a great writer. A few other friends from a facebook group I was an admin for. Some people I used to talk to in the SPN and Teen Wolf fandoms that I haven’t talked to since I kinda dropped out of both of them. As far as local friends go, not really? I mean, there are people I wouldn’t mind seeing again and wouldn’t mind hanging out with, but...as for ‘love to hang out with,’ not really.

Then again, I’d love to go back to Texas and be with Hil and Terra again, and I would love to see Jazz again in person. So.

I am officially addicted to your stories, and absolutely love the way that you write. It's very gritty, poetic and realistic, even if I some times happen to skip chapters! Your Leorai is my favorite, and I have literally cried over them; But your Master Splinter makes me want to throw up in some tinfoil and eat it. <3

Aw, man! Thank you!!! Yeah, skipping is best if you are sensitive and I always give my readers a fair warning - I never want to 'trick' anyone into reading something they really would have rather not. Especially because I do not pull my punches and refuse to do so. I strongly believe that writing and art need to be free of restrictions. But of course, the participants need to be honestly told what they are getting into before plunging ahead. 

AW! Leorai holds a special place in my heart - it never did before I wrote The Tender Trap. Now, I'm hooked on them. They've taken on almost a mythological aspect in my head, LOL 

Poor Master Splinter! I do enjoy making the infallible father/authority figure flawed and capable of making grievous errors. I'll need to write more happy fluff with him to make it up to him again...last time I did that, though, we ended up with Scrag from What Makes a Father, LOL

Thank you again for your review and your wonderful words of support! Love it!
