What’s on your playlist lately?: I haven’t been listening to music lately but when I do it’s my husband playing Matchbox 20 all the damn day long

Any favorite character troupes?: I am also a huge sucker for a whiskey priest or really any messy but also ‘classy’ character like... I don’t know... a desperate housewife? ;)

If you lived in wade, where do you think you’d spend most of your time?: I love me some deserted aesthetics so I’m gunnu have to say Allen County Galleria, but also The Conifer Lounge just cause a bitch loves to drink

Which skeleton character do you connect with most/are you most interested in?: Oooooh girl definitely Desperate Housewife

Do you have a theory about Josie’s death?: Definitely possession... probably Hannibal Lecter

what's on your playlist lately?: my music taste is honestly all over the map. as of today i’ve gotten very into widowspeak! when it comes to writing inspo, i’m all over hozier, son lux, keaton henson, dodie, conan gray, and the neighbourhood. when it comes to my day to day you can normally catch me jamming out to queen, blackbear, beyoncé, chance the rapper, childish gambino, hella kendrick lamar and a lot of emo jams from my never-ending emo phase.

any favorite character troupes?: how do i... begin? 

i have a serious weakness for the edge lords. you give me an edge lord, and i’m in love. i’m sorry, i’m weak i blame paramore and mcr. i love bookish boys, characters who have 0 common sense but are incredibly booksmart (and vice versa.) i love characters who don’t always pick up on social cues. i also tend to gravitate towards the sweet, happy-go-lucky characters who love everyone and radiate hufflepuff energy and are normally the comic relief. just. any comic relief characters. i love. just give me characters who are complex and well thought out and i will gush over them forever.

if you lived in wade, where do you think you'd spend most of your time?: probably at red’s diner scarfing down pancakes and coffee bc breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so i should be allowed to have 6 pancakes in one sitting

which skeleton character do you connect with most/are you most interested in?:  honestly, there isn’t a single skeleton i saw that i didn’t like. they’re all incredibly intriguing! for me, it was primarily we should split up, rebel without a clue, and second overdose. also fucking hipster bullshit ‘cause um... same.

do you have a theory about Josie’s death?: my muse is thinking aliens or demon possession. i am thinking or maybe more hoping that josie may have gotten involved in the occult and become interested in dark magic and sacrificial rituals as a result

Alright guys, we’ve made it to opening day! I can’t wait for us to get started. The main will be posted at 6:00 PM today, EST! In the meantime, I’ll be here answering any questions you might have! I’ve got a few questions in the inbox that I’ll tackle now. 

Name / Pronouns: 

*snoop dogg voice* greetings, loved ones! I’m Nikki (she/her)

What’s on your playlist lately?: 

I have been listening to ... a shit ton of Phoebe Bridgers, The Japanese House, & Soccer Mommy lately

Any favorite character troupes?: 

I really just love any character that is consumed by guilt (??? am I okay) and therefore rendered unable to have healthy relationships <3 I also really love playing characters that are Remarkably Self Aware.... who like know when they’re being super dramatic, specifically ?? we love it. I love a good Martyr Complex and I also rlly love when characters are insane but think it’s everyone else’s problem (@ JD from Heathers)

If you lived in wade, where do you think you’d spend most of your time?:

two words: roller. magic. anytime there’s a possibility of someone falling on their ass (myself included),, I’m there, posted up, waiting.

Which skeleton character do you connect with most/are you most interested in?: 

I’m def interested in second overdose (you said kerouac and I said yes pls) but I also get good vibes from mr. nice guy (it literally me) and rebel without a clue (holden caulfield hunny!!!) ... I’ve been pretty set on second overdose, but who really knows what will happen ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I’m open to the possibilities!! 

Do you have a theory about Josie’s death?: 

listen,, this is one of those things that real life me would just,,,, find a rational explanation for so I can sleep at night...  I might be hopping on the cult train...

What’s on your playlist lately?: Not a plug, but I’ve been constantly listening to the playlist I made for Wade because it? It just inspires me. Basically ANYTHING Sufjan Stevens, though-- I’m your neighborhood sad bitch, for sure. Catch me sobbing because All Delighted People is just so beautiful? The most? Ever? Also always bumping Iron & Wine, and Lana Del Rey. 

Any favorite character troupes?: I love smoll/tall pairings, the grumpy character falling for the super sweet/optimistic character, a good double agent, bADass womens, and obviously the Whiskey Priest? Because Man of God. 

If you lived in wade, where do you think you’d spend most of your time?: You could probably catch me buying snacks at the Quick Stop, but I’d also totally go to the Conifer Lounge because draft beer is life. 

Which skeleton character do you connect with most/are you most interested in?: I love all of them individually, they’re my babies, and I can’t wait for you guys to bring them to life. I’ll have my own character that’s not one of the skeletons! 

Do you have a theory about Josie’s death?: Hm... What can I say here? Maybe even /I/ don’t know.

A gif or meme that’s totally you:

-aren’t you that guy who tried to start a cult under the bleachers? -it was an experiment. i was gathering intel— -you covered a kid in blood! -alright, let’s not be dramatic… it was melted cherry jell-o.

jaylen “jay” cassius maxwell, aka we should split up

( listen here. )

Okay, guys, I apologize for the radio silence today, but I got some of the best news ever today! A friend of mine who’s been teaching English in Poland returned home for a visit I didn’t know she had planned. I’m spending tomorrow with her (since it’s the only day she’s available, I know, super bad timing) so I’m going to have to push back the opening date to Saturday, or Sunday. 

I truly apologize for this inconvenience! It by no means reflects on a lack of interest/commitment on my part, just a tad bit of poor time management, coupled with a total surprise. You’ll still get skeletons today, and I’ll try to set up a queue of them so they keep going for you guys tomorrow. I should be able to clear out the ask tonight, but encourage you guys to send me questions/comments/concerns as per usual. 

Times like this I know I could use a co-admin for sure! If anyone is interested in the position, I’d love to chat. Feel free to message/IM if you’d like.
