Will definitely be visiting Prague, Berlin, London, and Barcelona. Probably also a bunch of cities in Italy and Greece. There’s room for much more, though so I need you all to tell me your favourite ‘must visit’ places (or tell me where you are at so I can come and see some of my favourite people while I’m traveling around anyway).

1. If you and a loved one were to get stuck in the middle of nowhere, miles away from civilisation, with only enough provisions for one person to make it out, would you leave them and take your chances, or force them to go on?

I’d do neither and stay at home with a mug of tea and a chocolate hobnob.

2. Red vines or twizzlers?

I'm not American, so I've never had either.

3. If you were to only read one book, watch one movie/tv show, listen to one album, etc. for the rest of your life, which would it be, and why?

Book: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, because it’s the best one and I love the Marauders.

Movie/TV Show: Game of Thrones because of Arya Stark, my little dearest darling murderess.

Album: Anything by the Barenaked Ladies.

4. Favourite quote from your favourite book?

“You think the dead we loved truly ever leave us? You think that we don't recall them more clearly in times of great trouble?”

5. Spoons or forks?

Spoons, because you can’t balance a fork on your nose.

6. What fictonal character do you think you’re most like? no cheating and just listing your faves yo  Why them?

Lily Evans because a) I’m arrogant enough to believe that, b) I share her physical attributes and c) I write a really good Lily.

7. Do you prefer typing or pen and paper?

Typing, because I like being able to write things without getting a sore wrist.

8.  Pick up the book nearest to you and open it at a random page. What’s the first line?

HERE! TO THERE! THREE BOYS, A GOAT, AND A DANCING BEAR!

9. Favourite HP character? yes you are only allowed to pick one sux 4 u

Lily Evans!

10.  Favourite Disney movie?

It’s a tie between Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast. And Hercules. Damn.

11. Who do you want on the Iron Throne?

I am making it my mission in life to personally hunt down whoever put it there and when I do they’re gonna get hexed.
