Favorite historical figure and why?

Joan of Arc, mostly 'cause she was a badass and successfully lead the French troops against the English armies. Bless.

Favorite line(s) of fanfiction and/or RP Para?

"I just… I tried for so long, so fucking long, to just… Keep it together, I guess. I wanted, I wanted to feel like I was okay. Like everything was normal." The blonde took another sip of the water, his voice slowly going back to it’s normal volume, although, for some reason, it seemed to break constantly as he went with his confession. He didn’t even know if his words made sense, actually. All he could think about was how much he felt awful to disturb Marley’s sleeping, in the middle of the night to ramble about his own demons. “I’m just… I’m not okay, Rosie. I don’t remember the last time I was. I feel like I’ve been… on the verge of breaking down for so fucking long, but somehow, I was able to put myself back up. Pretending I could keep it together. Like... Sure, my shiny armour was all… bruised and battered, but it was still working, you know? It was still there, and it was enough.” "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)"

(I actually searched for years for this one, but whatever)

Can you describe your favorite season without using the word (i.e. if mine was autumn, I would say “the leaves crinkle under my feet…”)?

Best food you’ve ever tasted?

Honestly, I have no idea. I've had a lot of things, since I studied a bunch of things in culinary/pastry school, but.... Probably my mama's food. She's an amazing cook.

What was the last thing you confessed to your parents/friend/another?

Considering the fact that I have a really strong relationship with my mother, I admitted to her that I was terrified, on Friday. Terrified, because I had to take the 'morning pill' earlier this week, and I'm honestly petrified that something might happen, but now, I'm just waiting. (and since she's amazing, her first question was 'are you alright?' and the second was 'how was the D?')

What piece of art is affects you and why (be it literature, a painting, photography, etc.)?

Mostly, it's literature. Words, poetry, books, sentences, ugh. 'How do you even words' is my kryptonite, to be honest. 

Best “Fuck You” moment?

Mmmm. Well, it's not my 'best', but it happened last week, while I was at the bar with my best friend. There was this guy, in high school, that kept on teasing me and my best friend/brother, (him for being gay, me for being fat) and he actually was in the... basketball team, if I remember correctly, with my other best friend. (the one I was at the bar with.) Anyway, Sir McDouchey comes towards us, greeting my friend, and as he extends his hand to me, with his smirk, I only looked him in the eye and went back to my conversation. (this isn't much, but Past! Gen would've been a coward and faked a smile, ignoring everything he ever said to me, just for the sake's of being polite. Present! Gen gives no fuck, and I hope he steps on legos.)

How would you make a “Fuck You” moment better?

A public to applaud me. And perf red lipstick. Perhaps some heels, and my outfit on point. 

Thing that irritates you most about Tumblr?

Ignorance, mostly.

Thing you love most about Tumblr?

The way it showed me to love myself, as I am, as well as the amazing people I've met.

And what are you most proud of when it comes to you and your accomplishments?

Academically-wise, I never gave up, earning me two diplomas at the age of 19. WADDUP. 

AND

Have you ever lied to someone you thought (or knew) you’d never see/meet again?

Mmmm. Well, not really. I'm an open book, and I always say what's on my mind. (with tact, though.)

Favorite song to rock out to in your room?

Recently, it's a tie between Grand Theft Autum/Where Is Your Boy?, by Fall Out Boy, and Partition, by Beyoncé. The latter awakes the inner stripper in me, though.

What is your go-to comfort food?

McNuggets? Seriously, it's my mother's spaghetti sauce. With a bunch of cheese. Yummy.

When was the last time you wrote and sent a letter (via snail mail)

Eeeeeh. I actually have no idea, whatsoever.

What was the last book that made you feel something?

I reread Harry Potter & The Order Of The Phoenix, earlier this month. So, that. THE MARAUDERS, I'M NOT OKAY

Most annoying thing to happen to you this year.

It's superficial things, in fact. My laptop broke, my phone died, I had to change a couple of things on my car... Other than that, it's mostly little things.

Who is your favorite artist (music-wise)?

Toughest question ever. Like, I don't even know. Fall Out Boy, Panic, Beyoncé, Artic Monkeys? Ehh!??!

Do you remember the first fanfic you read?

Yes, it was a Draco Malfoy/Hermione Granger fic, in French. I was fourteen, and I read it alongside with my best friend in the middle of summer. It was actually a really good fic, something about their child that needed to go back in time to bring them together, because he was starting to disappear. Or something. And the feels were glorious.

Is there any movie that you know the lines to by heart?

Yes, House Bunny, Mean Girls, Shrek 2.

If The Doctor asked you to travel with him, would you?

Nah, I'm good. The feels are always too much, and I don't need misogyny in my life, or anything.

Best thing you ever made? (Food, writing, art, doesn’t matter)
