11) They’ve won the lottery. Spend, or save?

SAVE.  Maybe donate some to charity.

15) What would they consider a waste of time– other than school or work?

I guess something done only for StatusTM--he wouldn’t want to have to do things or go places just because “everyone else is doing it.”  He doesn’t see things someone enjoys as being a waste of time, and he’s way more likely than my other boys to actually WANT to do “unnecessary” chores like making his bed--he likes having a routine, and he’s happier when his living space is tidy.

He also wouldn’t be a fan of putting off responsibilities too long--he understands not looking forward to things, but he’d rather get them done quickly and then be able to do what he wanted, rather than waste time trying to avoid them.

21) What would it take for them to break up with someone? What would be the last straw? 

In general, Alp doesn’t date people he’s not already really good friends with, and if he’s that close to them, there probably aren’t many deal-breaking differences of opinion.  That means a breakup would more likely be a mutual decision caused by slowly growing apart or being at different life stages (like when he and his high school girlfriend broke up, when being a grade apart meant he went to college while she was still in Chicago) rather than some sudden cause.  With that said, if his partner did something totally outside Alp’s moral code, he wouldn’t be able to justify staying with them--he broke up with Lenny in BK because he couldn’t keep ignoring her work.  He’d have a hard time looking past cheating in particular, not so much because of jealousy, but because he values loyalty and honesty so highly that he couldn’t be with someone he didn’t trust anymore.  Regardless of the reason, breakups are always really hard on him.

28) Would they date a fixer-upper?

Send Alp your assumptions!

Correct.

8. Do complex puzzles intrigue or frustrate them?

If it’s a logic puzzle or practical problem (What Is Wrong With This Car And How Do I Fix It), he enjoys the challenge of figuring it out.  He would get much less enjoyment out of a complicated jigsaw puzzle. :p

14. Would they agree with the term ‘guilty pleasure’? Do they have any?

He’d say you only have to feel guilty if it’s Morally Wrong.  Some people might see his beloved Diner Burgers And Fries as a “guilty pleasure,” but I can assure you that Alp Yavuz feels NO GUILT about enjoying them--it’s not like he eats them for every meal.

18. Kissing: tongue or no tongue?

It depends on the situation and person and relationship...and whether they’re in public, because You Know How He Feels About PDA :’DDD

24. Honesty or charity?

4. Are there any sources that you draw upon for aspects of your muse (certain emotions, situations, clothing, hairstyles, etc.) that do not exist in their canon material?

Scott has actually had all the LooksTM I’ve ever needed for Em--modern cowboy, historical cowboy, military, blue-collar city-dweller who occasionally has to dress up, even a Halloween costume.

If I used gifs more often, I’d have more trouble finding ones that expressed the right emotions or actions, but the only time it’s really stuck out was when he hugged a friend in BK and ??? I could not find a gif of a PLATONIC HUG?!?!?!?

5. What do you feel your muse’s FC embodies best about your muse?

The PURE CHAOS.  There are SO many times when watching Scott’s instagram stories has felt like watching Emmett’s.  I had no idea what he was like before choosing him as Em’s FC, but Are They The Same Person?  Possibly So! :’D

6. What do you feel your muse’s FC embodies worst about your muse? 

3. Answered here!

14. If you had to narrow it down to 2 things that you MUST keep in mind while working with your OC, what would those things be?

He’s gentle, and he’s deadly.  Alp is a SOFT BOY who wants to be Good and Love and Be Loved and Do The Right Thing and have a Family Again, and he just wants a HUG that lasts 5000 hours and is so careful of people he cares about--to the point of trying to protect them from himself and what he’s done. 

But he also trained with one of the world’s most elite special forces groups.  He loves fiercely, and he’ll do anything to protect the people he loves.  He doesn’t go looking for fights, but if he has to, he’ll end them.  He’s ridiculously disciplined.  He doesn’t talk much, but he’s always listening and keeps alert--and unlike most of my other boys, Alp actually thinks before he speaks and reacts, which means he’s way better at staying out of trouble, and better prepared to take action.

19. What is your favorite fact about your OC?

Mrs. Potato Head: Are you happy with the appearance you have?

“Yes.”

(despite Mira describing his buzz cut look as a “toasty chia pet” and “brunette Q-Tip”) :’D

Big Houses: Where does your character live as opposed to where they would like to live?

“I live in an apartment.  I like it; if there was some reason to live somewhere else, that’d be okay, but I like Chicago.  I’ll probably stay here.”

Lolita: Would you ever seduce someone for your own gain?
