Who would you date on Heartopia?

"Atara, because that guy looks just like Robin if he had a ponytail."

[theoseong]

Fuck marry kill: Kyle, Al, Leo

"If you're going to make me choose from a list of the most least likely suspects then...marry Al, because Al is cool, fuck Leo, and kill Kyle."

[theoseong]

If you got to control earth air fire or water, which would you want?

"Hmm...I think fire. Team Zuko."

[theoseong]

How do you think Alisz will react to your plans?

"Knowing her? Bad. She doesn't seem to like it when her twins do anything for themselves, so I can't imagine she'll like it if Robin gets married."

[theoseong]

Do you still have feelings for Trex?

"Nope. I think we're both happy with our boyfriends. Trex is a good guy, he's just not my good guy.

"...That sounded weirder than I meant it to. You get what I mean."

[theoseong]

what do your future plans look like?

"Play music on the ship until they don't want me anymore."

"Maybe get married if everything goes well. I really hope that's my future plan, at least."

[theoseong]

What are some things you like to do outside of music stuff?

"Uh...watching movies, reading, ghost hunting. I guess I do kind of like cooking when it's on my own time. I'm also pretty good at mixing drinks. Maybe I need more hobbies."

[theoseong]

Would you ever want to have kids someday?

"Eh. Never say never, but they're not really a priority."

"I had such a bad relationship with my dad that I can't imagine I'd be a good father. I wouldn't want to traumatize a poor kid like I was."

[theoseong]

What's a song recommendation you have to describe your life?

"We'll be here all day if you ask me to choose just one."

A few hours later, Theo finally had an answer. "Maybe Holocene by Bon Iver? That's what feels right today, at least. Could be something different tomorrow."

"Hypothetical. I'm trying to figure out how to make things more comfortable for everyone in an emergency. It's partly a fun question, and partly a serious one. Pods are pretty safe in the grand scheme of things and well-armored, so I'd like for them to be a good place to go in an emergency. But the kind of emergency that isn't probably likely. Smaller guitar, though? I can't imagine playing a full-sized one while stuck in the pod with Robin happily," Daphne said.

[theoseong]

Theo nodded along as he listened. If he was locked in a pod for emergency reasons, then that didn't really change his answer. He'd still want Robin and guitar...and water. "Yeah, a smaller guitar," he confirmed again. "A full-sized Robin, though. I know it's a tight squeeze." They were both six foot tall men, but he'd rather be uncomfortable than locked away from him.

[daphnerux]

"...In the scheme of person/place/thing, Robin doesn't count, but I'll allow it because I didn't give you criteria," Daphne said with a small sigh. "Would you need a smaller guitar? I know technically it fits in the pod, but with Robin in there too, it's probably not the comfiest fit."

[theoseong]

Theo nodded sagely when Daphne allowed him to keep his favorite part of his list. "I mean, if a smaller guitar is an option, then I'll take a smaller guitar," he said. He liked his guitar, but that could be his everywhere else guitar, and his smaller one could be his pod guitar. "Is this a real question or hypothetical? Are we getting locked in our pods?"

[daphnerux]

"Think fast. If you had to pick three things that you absolutely needed if you couldn't leave your pod for three days, what would they be? No wrong answers." Daphne was sure that not everyone that she asked this question to would think very fast. She tried asking Leo the question earlier, and it looked like the gunner's mind had started buffering. She had asked Hero, and the answer had been literally 'three socks'. And now she wanted to know what this crewmate thought.

[theoseong]

Theo wasn't ready for a pop quiz. Daphne said no wrong answers, but there had to be a reason why she was asking, and Theo didn't want to choose wrong and everything stolen except for the three things he chose. "My guitar," he said first, because that was a given. "A refillable bottle of water," he added, which was boring, but he didn't want to die of thirst. "And...Robin? Does he count?"

[skylarclarke]

"Needs an acapella version," Sky corrected, as if this was a) something he had any authority to demand, and b) was part of a real project Theo was definitely doing. "If you can swing that, then hell yeah. All bass version, let's go. And then you can do a remix that's a mashup of the acapella and the bass version. You're welcome."

[theoseong]

"Needs an acapella version," Theo corrected himself with an amused roll of his eyes. It was such a typical Skylar conversation, where none of this would ever happened, but he didn't mind going along with the bit. "I have nothing else to do so I don't see why there can't be a mashup. We should also consider doing a version where all the vocals are done by Elmo." As in Mari's Elmo, not the red monster thing from Earth.

[skylarclarke]

"Well shit, sign me up for updates on that. One of the tracks'll be an a cappella version, right? Can't do rainbow road without a cappella," Sky made up on the spot. He kind of did want to hear an a cappella version now though. "I wonder how many different layers you'd need... you've got your work cut out for you."

[theoseong]

"Sky wants an acapella version. Noted," Theo nodded seriously like this was a project actually in the works. "Would you want to provide the bass on this album? I was thinking we should do a version that's only bass and nothing else. Just a bass remix."

[skylarclarke]

"Too late, comments like that are instantly perma-saved into my brain. I can't not think of sick beats whenever I see you from now on. But hey, look at the bright side - there's definitely worse fates for a musician than having someone think of 'sick beats' when they see you," Sky pointed out. "But you might need to be a little more specific about which sick beats, or I'll just assume it's the Mario Kart rainbow road backtrack."

[theoseong]

Ah, right. Theo's legacy--sick beats. It was just like he always wanted. He was pretty sure this was the result of spending too much with Ali and Skylar. "Sick" didn't used to be part of his vocabulary. "It's only the Mario Kart rainbow road backtrack," he deadpanned. "I'm writing an album that are just various remixes of that song."
