12, 09, 17, 18 for the new kids!
12. What perfectly-normal-to-them-thing does your OC do that confuses/pisses off/terrifies their neighbors?
Cress doesn’t do that shit. 3:) This is Arkady, where every other person is directly involved in Torrent or knows someone who does. Pissing off your neighbors is an excellent way to start a feud that will probably involve mind control and manipulation and frankly, Cress would rather not start anything like that.
Download leaves the hive in costume probably fairly regularly, which gets him a look or three when he walks down the block. Also ngl, if a neighbor is pushing their buttons and isn’t listening to Firewall, he’d probably try to unnerve people by telling them that there’s asbestos in their house. He can taste it in the air! (:
9. What would cause your OC to chose to do something petty/pointlessly cruel?
Answered this for download!
Cress is a pretty spiteful person! She’d go out of her way to spite someone, but usually only if provoked. Disliking someone isn’t enough- someone who’s standing in the way between her and what she wants is usually asking for her to do something cruel.
17. How does your OC sabotage themselves?
Cress literally never says what she wants. There’s a lot of hints and nudges and attempts at manipulation but she usually forces the people around her who give a shit to attempt mind reading.
She wants a lot of stuff! Some of it is pretty obvious like her pop idol dreams, but she probably hasn’t said anything about Canary, to anyone. Similarly, she’s told no one about her crush on Melete and will continue to refuse to do so. Even though Melete is clearly fucking clueless.
18. What’s the trashiest item in your OC’s wardrobe, when was the last time they wore it and why do they still have it?
Download has nothing he considers embarrassing in his wardrobe. He doesn’t believe in guilty pleasures and walks around the neighborhood in gaudy drinker outfits regularly. If it was trashy he wouldn’t wear it (:
Cress has a pair of thigh high white vinyl gogo boots she only wears for halloween costumes. She secretly likes them and plans every third halloween costume around them. If she wore them too often, people would suspect she likes them.
