QUESTIONS MEME



THE QUESTIONS MEME

A first big 'n successful round of apps has concluded and the game is getting off to a roll - since there are always brains to be picked and new pals and acquaintances to be made, how's about we all play a little getting-to-know-you game?


HOW TO PLAY:
• Leave a comment below with your name and the characters who you play.
• Respond to others' comments with questions - they can be about their characters, their current in-game plans or things they'd like to play, their CR, RP in general, their canons and fandoms, or most anything else.
• Answer questions you've received! Keep it short or TL;DR to your heart's content, depending on how much you have or are in the mood to say!
• After each answer you give, ask a question back to the person who answered you. Keep the thread of questioning up for as long as both parties are game!
• Go for it - make friends, make new plans, make anything you like!

Thank you for the questions!

I was a 90's kid, so growing up one thing our family used to do was visit the video store every couple weeks. My brother and I were each allowed to pick one or two things to rent. I don't remember what I'd gone in looking for but I remember it was already checked out, so I wound up picking up FFIX instead. I remember the artwork jumping out at me, and the guy on the front had a tail like a cat how could I not? Funnily enough I'd never played a JRPG before that, so yeah. LOL I was hooked.

What drew me in was the characters. Even the characters I thought were going to be annoying and boring turned out to have really fascinating and compelling arcs. I wanted to figure out what Vivi was, and why Zidane had a tail, and what was behind Dagger's need to run away from home.

I'll admit that not a lot of the FF titles since have grabbed me, not the way that 9 did, but every once in a while I still come across a game that sucks me in completely enough with the characters and story that I just get full on invested. FF14 is also my first MMO, so I've really enjoyed having an ongoing story that my customized character gets to be a part of. I can't really put into words how good and gratifying it feels!

2/3 (SORRY I LIED these are getting long)

Oh man, dream CR? This one is really hard.

Of characters that are currently in the game, that's hard, there are legitimately so many I want CR with in general. I guess, though, for Serah it would probably be a toss up between Alisaie (ff14), Allura (Voltron), and Keith (Voltron).

Alisaie because they're both strong willed sword wielders who've had to live in the shadows of more infamous, sometimes more talented siblings and their overpowered friend(s). They both are thrust into situations where they have to shape up to keep pace and I just find those similarities fascinating! I'd love the chance to write them teaming up for combat at some point, as I feel that their fighting styles would mesh really well, and I think that an interesting and maybe heartwarming friendship could develop from it, as well. Mind you, this is all just my opinion/my thoughts, and I could be totally wrong. You never know, with RP!

Allura because she's just such a strong female character to me, and again, I think that there could be a really fun friendship dynamic there between the two women. They're both women who very strongly follow their hearts, but I find them both to be the types that are hilariously no-nonsense when crossed. I just think there'd be a lot of fun interactions to write out, especially if writing them together with other characters, too.

With Keith it's really just kind of a gut feeling. The CR could be positive or it could very well be negative depending entirely on circumstances like how they'd meet and what would be happening at the time, but this is another one where I'd love to write the two of them together in some combat scenarios. I think they'd make a pretty damn good team, and as an FF player I LIVE for a good, satisfying action sequence.

For Ziva this answer is a lot easier. I mean I'm gonna cheat because technically I'm already getting so much of it, but also since she's an OC any CR is inherently great, and I really mean that. I probably would've described one or two of her current threads or future plans as dream CR, honestly.

For her, then, it's not so much a "who" as a "what" I guess. Anyone that can just have relateable interactions with her is peak goal for me, honestly. WoL's are so often set apart from everyone else in their world that just getting to write them interacting with people who don't do that is a great feeling. IDK if that really makes much sense, but there you go!
