HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WRITING FOR? prob since i was 8 or so? i started reading warriors and i would write my own little "fanfictions" on word docs. i started roleplaying in 2012, and my writing didn't actually get good until 2015-16 lMAO
BIRTHDAY & ZODIAC? january 4th, capricorn gangggg
MBTI? isfj, the defender
DESCRIBE YOURSELF IN THREE WORDS um. introverted? awkward? caring?

HOW TALL ARE YOU? 5'5"
DO YOU HAVE ANY PETS? i currently have a tabby kitten (~7 months?) at my mom's place named roxy, though i've recently lost my other cat (a gray tuxedo with a lil pink nose, her name was "she") and i miss her v much. i've had quite a few cats in my lifetime but i had a really good bond with her.
WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE COLOR? idk tbh. i like all colors if they're toned down a bit? like pale colors as opposed to bright/neon. my go-tos are burgundy and black.

WHAT DO YOU SEE YOURSELF DOING IN TEN YEARS? oof, hopefully in a career i actually like. maybe married and looking to get a house (if things currently work out lol)
ANY HOBBIES & INTERESTS? TELL US ABOUT IT! i've been playing the drums for 8 or so years? though i haven't had time for music for the past few months, i wanna pick it up again eventually. i also enjoy drawing both on paper and digitally.

FAVORITE FOOD & DRINK? sprite is my go-to. as for food, i freaking love food and it's impossible to choose any favorites. italian is always a safe bet but lately i've been craving panda express
FAVORITE SONG? i have a Lot. right now? "the less i know the better" by tame impala, and "say so" by doja cat because tik tok has brainwashed me. i like playing "dancing queen" by abba in the car when rolling up to school as well, helps me calm my nerves
FAVORITE MEMORY? my childhood in general, like in elementary school. those days when school was actually fun lmso
FAVORITE ICE CREAM FLAVOR? chocolate chip (cookie dough) or mint and chip are usually my go-tos

TEA OR COFFEE? coffee for sure, but most of the time i get frappes or iced coffee
CATS OR DOGS? cats. nothing against dogs, i've just always owned cats
COMEDY OR HORROR? comedy!! i'll watch a horror film but probably not by my own choosing, i just don't like being scared
SINGING OR DANCING? i can't dance for shit. i also can't sing for shit, but i like it better than dancing.

I PLAY CALVIN !!

WHEN IS YOUR CHARACTER'S BIRTHDAY?
MBTI? infp
MORAL ALIGNMENT? eh, i'd say neutral good or true neutral
HOW DO THEY DRESS? casual, not too fancy. a t-shirt, hoodie, sneakers, and beanie will do just fine.

THREE POSITIVE TRAITS? humorous, loving, devoted
THREE NEGATIVE TRAITS? lazy, stubborn, temperamental
THREE LIKES? food, comics, sleeping
THREE DISLIKES? anything that involves exercise, prissy or entitled people, most reptiles

ARE THEY AN OPTIMIST OR A PESSIMIST? mmm somewhere in the middle? dunno
HOW DO THEY BEHAVE WITHIN THE GROUP? he's kind of lowkey only because he wants to get out of doing Work. he isn't really close with anyone atm but he's fine with that, he's never had a bunch of friends anyways.
WHAT DO THEY MOST CARE ABOUT? i,,, sleep?? i don't know. he doesn't care too much about himself and he doesn't really care too much about anyone else.

WHAT IS THEIR FAVORITE SONG? he doesn't know a ton of songs but he always distinctly remembers "under pressure" by david bowie and queen.

WHAT MEME SUMS THEM UP THE BEST? uhhh i'll get back to you on that one

WANT TO PLOT FRIENDSHIPS? ye! boyo needs friends, even if he doesn't want to admit it lmfao
WANT TO PLOT ENEMIES? if you want? he doesn't tend to be confrontational and if anything would dislike y/c from afar, but it would be interesting if he had a reason to stand up to y/c and call them out because that would be very out of character for him
WANT TO PLOT ROMANCE? yes because that would be cute as hell

Truce eats the chocolate my video game tastes are all over the freaking map lmao. I probably play Neverwinter the most bc it's smth I do w my family, but I'm also all about the Borderlands franchise and Far Cry franchise. And Minecraft, ofc. Also Sims and Skyrim and [goes on forever bc I like a lot of games] what does RDR stand for I'm frigging Dumb
I just?? idk I used to be All About Milk then I Grew Up also had a bunch of expired milk so that really helped. like I'll drink some other drinks, I really like lemonade in the summer and sometimes I'll go for some Diet Mountain Dew bc my parents always have it or some orange soda but it's not too terribly often. idk water's healthiest and I'm convinced there is nothing better than some cold water when you're dehydrated. it's so fucking nice.
ok tea at first I wasn't Super into Missio (I didn't dislike them just it wasn't smth I was putting on a lot) and then. that changed v quickly and I listen to them all the time. ya girl has even uncovered a few songs on Youtube that aren't on spotify ;0
omg you've had a whole ass zoo huh? I think being involved in rescue is just. such an amazing thing and I think it's wonderful you got to help all those animals

Finny oh my god I have so many. like I've got all the obvious ones that everyone and their mom know I'm obsessed with (makes direct eye contact w Halsey and TOP). Some of my other faves tho include Call Me Karizma, Grandson, 8 Graves, Missio, Yungblud, Arrested Youth, and honestly I could probably flood you with artists I've been finding lately UNCVRD on Youtube is Fucking Amazing ok it's where I find a lot of music. P!ATD and Hollywood Undead have recently stuck their head in and been like "remember us??" and why yes I do remember you. Florence and the Machine is another one uhhh let's see. The Neighborhood, Imagine Dragons, Lorde, Billie Eilish, Lana Del Rey, AWOLNATION, Des Rocs, Troye Sivan, Set It Off, Arctic Monkeys... I have a lot I'm having to look at spotify to remember everyone and there's even more I'm not mentioning. wow that was a lot.
I haven't had butter pecan in Years And Years And Years I usually just have vanilla. I love chocolate but not chocolate dairy, so no chocolate ice cream or milk or even cereal for me.
ahh tysm?? I'm honestly really excited to get to write w Ev just being Ev she is,,, not nearly so dislikable when she's just chilling with friends, so the thread w the two of them? will be Fucking Everything
besides your favorite bands that I know, who are your fave artists?

Crows Crows. Crows honey that was more than three words. oh god one of the admins is a rule breaker. OH GOD
hi how did I?? not know about your geese? wtf my good dude,,, Geese. are they Canadian geese or a different kind?
ok as my resident Musical Friend and assuming you're at least more or less aware of which ones I have and haven't seen, what is your number one must watch/listen to

Inny ahh tysm <3 I'm just a big old Hufflepuff honestly
ok but fr dude? your goals and passions are so fucking admirable? like no seriously I think it's a really great thing you're working towards and you should get All the props. tbh none of those things are boring at all? I. also want to know your favorite movie lmao but Finny already asked that, so what is your least favorite?
Freddie and Evelyn are gonna be fucking iconic anti-wingmen

Hoot what would be your dream project to work on? it can be really broad like "something with animals" or a lil more specific like "spongebob's next movie"
also, when is Brendan gonna get more chicks. it's the burning question on everyone's minds
this is lame but we already know each other p well so like ??

Hal I'm still shook that you aren't over 18. oml. but anyway Hershey is?? such a cute name?? ok so. what is the wildest medical technology you know of bc medicine throughout history can be Wild sometimes
also bc I'm. so inactive and behind I haven't read any of your Elwin posts yet but I already feel like ik what's up w him and I am all about him and can't wait to actually rp w him

Beatles "and my writing didn't actually get good until 2015-16 lMAO" why is that Actually Me tho. We don't talk about my chars before I got into rp as burningpyre. we just don't. we do sometimes when we want to cringe who's your favorite character that you've made?

Noccy broo are you gonna get another pet soon? :eyes: oh god. let's not think about me being that old. god what a mood I'm gonna be thIRTY what the fuck. now that I've officially been alive during 4 decades granted for the first and fourth only a few weeks but still that seems way too close. Who's your favorite Harry Potter character and what's your favorite game? wait. lemme guess. sims
also when you say Pandora doesn't like kiwis is that the fruit or does she have smth against New Zealand

[Beatles.]

[align=center][div style="width: 400px; text-align: justify; line-height: 12px;"][font=calibri]@ BRYNE YEAH we should keep anything pre-2016 locked away forever
i've literally made so many characters i can't even begin to think about what my favorite one is.... my most successful character and the one i consistently roleplayed the longest was jerseyboy, he was pretty fun because he had lots of relationships and plots going for him. don't know if he counts? he was technically based off of a movie character. the runner-up is gabriel, he's definitely more of an original idea and gosh playing him was so so fun.

+ listening to music definitely counts as a hobby!!! i, myself, do it on a daily basis lol. you also mentioned that you liked to sing and dance, so what are your favorite songs to sing and dance to?

---

[align=center][div style="width: 400px; text-align: justify; line-height: 12px;"][font=calibri]// apologies if these responses are cruddy, am tired but i wanted to write these askakddfk
i also apologize if any of these questions or responses are repeats because i don't have the time to check everyone else's oop

@ TRUCE a taurus!! i have a newfound love for tauruses thanks to my bf, but it turns out that my sign is most compatible with tauruses because of their chill and loving nature. you've always given me good vibes so maybe this is part of the reason why ahAH
+ i didn't know that england had mozzarella sticks w h a t
aren't they amazing though?? you gotta be careful not to choke on the stringy cheese though, trust me i know from experience
++ biscuit tea,,, is that a tea that tastes like biscuits? or is it a tea that pairs well with biscuits? help i know nothing about tea

@ FINNY foinny
i knew you were a cancer but i just wanted to say that i've always had a place in my heart for cancers
some of my best friends are cancers and they are just :okhand: love em love em
+ i keep forgetting that you're 5'9" u gi ant- that's my dad's height btw oop-
++ it's totally okay not to know what to do for the rest of your life!! you're still young and have time to explore your options. i'm in the same boat right now, i chose a major to put down just for the sake of financial aid but i find myself wondering if it's really the best choice for me.
+++ ayy i remember when u got ur cos. license! have u considered doing anything with it, or are you unsure?

@ CROWS definitely agree that humor is one of the best qualities! there's too much shit going down in the world and i think we could all stand to find laughter in the hardest of times.
+ i know you're a musical nerd but i have no idea you've been involved in any!! that's so cool, and i wished i had the talent to simultaneously recite lines, sing, dance, etc. what musicals have you been apart of??

@ INNY ahaha definitely get the wrong zodiac thing!! my brother-in-law is the least aries person i know; calm, soft-spoken, gentle. do you believe that you have no aries-related traits whatsoever, or do you find yourself expressing some aries traits at times? i know that they're stereotyped to be absolutely Chaotic but they're also competitive, achieving, etc.
+ mega props to you for pursuing nursing!! i've had to visit the hospital this month and gosh... it's so busy and stressful in there. i have mad respect for nurses and anyone who works in the medical field really. they have to know so much about everything and they tend to dozens of patients at once and they work grueling shifts and just.... wow. i could personally never do something like that, my pea-sized brain would forget everything i've ever learned LMAO

@ HOOT 5'0" oh my goodness.... babey. do you think you'll grow any more or do you think that's your Destined Height?
+ i like drawing but i've never gotten around to animation (though i want to,,, it's my major rn oops). what programs do you use? how long does it take you typically to complete an animation (i remember you doing one with toothless?)

@ HAL happy early birthday, hershey!! <3 i'm glad he's lived a long life so far. did you get him as a kitten or did you adopt him?
+ BAD ANIME FANFICTION oh my ggfkdsw,, do u still have them :eyes:
++ mint chocolate chip is god-tier ice cream and i really don't understand the hate. like, who hurt u

@ NOCCY !! what characters have you cosplayed as? do you often attend conventions?
+ what kind of coffee do you like/how do you like it? i'm a little picky as well w/ my coffee; has to be really sweet and creamy like i can hardly taste the actual coffee LMAO. i also prefer iced coffee over hot coffee

awkward gang unite
woaaah that’s so cool ! ! cosmetology takes a lot and i think it’s underrated in that way. it takes creativity which i,,, definitely don’t have so kudos to you and congrats on passing those boards
i was originally going to go the pre-med route and become a doctor. i always just wanted to make a difference in peoples’ lives and thought that doctors were the perfect example of that. though, through multiple hospital stays, i ended up realizing that it wasn’t the doctors that made the difference; it was the nurses. so aww thank you sm!! i work in a nursing home too atm and it’s not easy to work there either so asdfafd you have my respect x 10
ooh my favorite movies,,, this changes literally all the time because i always find something that i just can’t help but adore
i went to see 1917 recently because i’m such a big war film fan and?? honestly i love films where they make everything seem like one seamless, unedited cut that that’s exactly what they did. oh it was everything
ooohh yeah the family knows him for who he is
it’s a tragedy asdf
so the thing with fred is that he’s,, a mess when it comes to women asdf
catch constant flirting with emery and he’s just,, chaotic

bryne ! !
omg literally i see it
i used to say i was a hufflepuff but honestly i think i’m a big fat ravenclaw
oh my god least favorite movie
listen i don’t know why
but for some reason i hate hate hate the tourist with johnny depp and angelina jolie
oh i could write a whole essay on why that movie bothers me
there are a lot of bad movies out there, don’t get me wrong, but no movie has ever pissed me off as much as the tourist
i’m dead i’m so salty towards that movie asdf
oh i can’t wait for freddie and evelyn
just thinking about them cracks me tf up

beatles ! !
yeah see i don’t genuinely believe in zodiacs or horoscopes or anything but i find them fun- but i get so salty when people say i’m a chaotic aries because?? i think i’m the opposite of chaotic. we’re not all julien solomita here okay. though i do have to say i think the like. passionate part is very much me. i get extremely passionate about the things i like !!
ooh yeah it’s really stressful being a nurse, but i lowkey love being stressed tf out. plus, i mean it might be stressful as a nurse, but also it is a rewarding job. it’s nice to meet people who at first are nervous, stressed, or scared and take them under our care and see them smile. it’s everything.
also i have found a fellow foodie my heart
i am in love with tex-mex but i feel you. there’s a panda express so close to my house that i find myself gravitating over there every time for some beef and broccoli. it’s addicting!!
+++ i cry because calvin and fred are such opposites. calvin seems so lowkey meanwhile fred is p boisterous and out there. so they’d be a funny. yin-yang type thing.

noccy ! !
i think it’s so cute that pandora has “pandora’s box” it’s a neat play on her name
also zendaya,, what a queen
also!! i love history sm so i love seeing all your interests being about historical events or time periods. it’s so iconic!! also i didn’t know that you cosplayed??  have you gone to any conventions and if so who did you cosplay as??
