#antimutant

Hey buddy! I saw these folks sending letters from another universe or something (doesn't that sound cool??) so I decided to chip in too!

So these people don't seem to have mutants in their universe and I never really thought about the possibility of that happening in like ever. Makes me wanna know your thoughts on the thing that's been on my mind....how do you think life woulda been like if OUR world had no mutants?

P.S: I know it's annoying when I get all philosophical but you're the only one who's been indulging me for so many years and you know I don't have the guts to ask anyone else (at least at the moment) so....indulge your old pal again for old times sake and don't just toss the letter in the trash?

-Your best buddy, MC

(Specifically this anon's MC who's a shy boy overall but super open with Casen who's more of a brother to him than Chase ever was. He's also a bit insecure/has self esteem issues as seen by asking Casen not to throw his letter in the trash)

To my best buddy,

No way I'd ever throw any of your letters in the trash, dude! Not unless it had homework on it or something like that.

WAIT DID YOU SAY ANOTHER UNIVERSE? I was kinda just answering them without thinking about it!!!! That's AWESOME! I can kinda imagine a world without mutants, I mean it's not like we get much action here in the city. It'd honestly be a little boring, I mean there'd be no soldiers or unknown or anything like that, right? Then ama would be some boring old pre academy! But I guess it'd be pretty cool going to see what the ocean looks like or a bunch of those cool animals we see in the books.

You're asking the wrong question though, dude. Imagine a universe where MUTANTS CAN JUGGLE! OR DO HOMEWORK FOR YOU! FOR FREE! That's a universe I want to go to!

Been meaning to ask this, how wpuld you rate the ROs romances from most to least angsty? (For their whole arcs or at least what you have planned so far instead of just this book, unless thatd be too spoilery of course)

Yes, I'm so excited to be answering some questions both in and out of character! Thank you and others for being so active so quickly, it was exciting to see so many posts already!

I'll meet you in the middle in terms of avoiding spoilers! I won't say which characters exactly, but I will tell you that by far the most angsty romance sections will take place in the fourth book. Relationships will be tested! Most of which coming from a character in book 1 that you may not expect and by far the most from an RO that hasn't been introduced yet.

Have you seen the movie Josee, the Tiger and The Fish? It's a really nice movie and I'd really love to watch it with you sometime.

Warm regards, Blake (name of my MC)

[The movie rwally is nice and reminds me of what MC and Anni's relationship could be at some point. Feel free to check it out!]

Dear Blake,

I haven't heard of that movie! Did it just come out or is it older? Do you have a synopsis of it? The movie name sounds very unique and incongruous.

I would love to watch anything with you either way, Blake, I'm only curious! Even if we can't watch it at a movie theatre, I can ask my parents to make popcorn at my house and we can watch it together there. Let me know when you're free!

I'm looking forward to it already,

Anni

AUTHOR'S NOTE: I have heard of that one! I haven't gotten around to seeing it yet but I've seen the clip of them at the beach and it seems very heart warming. It's on the list!

Are you afraid of the dark? Cause I used to be when I was your age and I'm no longer afraid of it now. Still afraid of people though, that one doesn't go away as easily

Dear Anonymous,

I'm terrified! Not being able to see in front of you or what's around you, anyone or anything could be there. I've been more scared this level more than ever since we just started learning more about mutants. One of them could show up when I'm sleeping for all I know! I know I'm supposed to be a teenager now, but it's still scary.

The good thing is that every night at the orphanage, me and the others sleep in the same room with some night lights. A lot of the younger ones are even more scared of the dark than I am so they ask to sleep with me in the same bed. That always makes me feel better. I'm the oldest so I wouldn't tell them, but they make me feel safer. I'm pretty scared of people too, especially talking to strangers...but I think people are what helps me be a little less scared of the dark too.

Thank you for sharing your fears with me,

You and MC got cornered by bullies once and you had to threaten them with Sol to get them to leave you alone. Since then, did you think of any other backup plans to deal with jerks trying anything funny without having to indirectly depend on your brother? With a bit of training I think you could even learn to take a group of dumb brutes like that down in a straight fight easily. What do you think?

Anon,

You lost me at training. I'm not scared of idiots like Amos, he just got the jump on me because I was distracted talking to someone which isn't happening 9 out of 10 times. I don't need to waste a bunch of time learning how to defend myself when I can just skate away from those idiots or hit them on the back of the head with my skateboard. Don't need to know how to fight to do that.

Besides, Sol actually made himself useful for once so I wouldn't want to waste his shining moment by not making use of it.

-Ruth

P.S. If this is Miss Wavra trying to get me to train so I can join that dumb tournament again, I'll pass. Again.

Do you read books (besides studying i mean)? You seem to me lile the type of person who would enjoy a good read (like romance novels maybe, not all of them are trashy like some would claim)

Dear Anonymous,

I love reading! If I'm not drawing then I'm reading. I do have a soft spot for romance, but I'd say my favorite genre is historical fiction. I can read just about anything though if you give me enough time and a quiet room.

Some may call certain books trashy, but I think even those have their appeal to it. Every book has an author that put their heart in it, so I usually find some positive parts that I enjoy. I haven't been unable to finish a book yet, even if I enjoy some more than others.

I better stop now or I'll write all day about books!

Happy reading,

Do you even have any friends?

Anonymous,

Plenty. Back as a soldier, the whole squad and I were close. Had more allies than enemies I would like to think.

As for here in the city, everybody loves me. Everybody's my friend. I'd like to think Alya, Nelson and I have somewhat of a bond too from back in the day. You'd have to ask them though.

Good question! I actually didn't have much experience with Tumblr before making this account, but I was familiar with one blog years ago (Before I even posted the first demo for this game!) that would allow you to ask questions to a video game's characters in the form of letters. I was in love with this specific video game and was feeling sad after finishing it, so this blog held a special place in my heart being able to interact with characters that I wouldn't be able to otherwise. Seeing them "live" outside of the game was also such a heartwarming feeling. I wanted to offer something similar since my game updates come so slow.

I also knew that I didn't have too much time to upkeep a whole Tumblr blog so if I wanted to do it then it needed to include content that is quick, not too stressful, and enjoyable. I have so much fun answering questions not just as myself but as characters too! This allows me to let everyone know I'm still alive, interact with readers, and also promote the game a little bit.
