1. Has a video game/film ever caused you to have a physical reaction?
Films? Numerous. Video games? I think the the SWTOR IA story has caused me numerous physical reactions over the years, every time, if you count ‘psychological’ as ‘physical’. If purely physical, I flip off Skavak on every single smug; it’s just reflexive now.
2. What’s something you miss about your childhood?
My family/extended family. There was one incredible Thanksgiving dinner at my paternal grandparents’ farmhouse that’s sort of my touchstone-memory when I feel lower than low; everyone got along, everyone was happy, it was beautiful.
3. What do you wear to bed?
It really depends on the season. Summer, thin tees. Winter, I bundle up in layers. Autumn, maybe a long-sleeved tee; spring, I just hate that it’s spring so whatever I fall asleep in.
4. What’s the best book you’ve ever read?
The Hobbit. But a close second by less than a hair is The Name of the Wind.
5. What was the last photo you took?
A closeup pic on my dumbphone of one of my cats meowing. He looks evil but he was really just whining,
6. How do you treat yo self?
I have no idea what this means. People treat themselves?
7. What’s your favourite holiday of the year?
Halloween- because that’s a whole month of various horror films from various eras...oh, and the leftover candy.
8. If you could live in any time period when would it be?
The Victorian era. But only if properly steampunk ;)
9. What’s your favorite quote from a book/film/someone you know?
‘He laid a hand on my shoulder. "Using words to talk of words is like using a pencil to draw a picture of itself, on itself. Impossible. Confusing. Frustrating." He lifted his hands high above his head as if stretching for the sky. "But there are other ways to understanding!" he shouted, laughing like a child. He threw both arms to the cloudless arch of sky above us, still laughing. "Look!" he shouted tilting his head back. "Blue! Blue! Blue!” ‘ -Elodin, (The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss)
10. What values do you like to see in other people?
A peculiar sense of humor coupled with Intelligence. Patience when it’s absolutely necessary. And compassion- being able to feel sympathy and/or empathy.
