1) If you could eat a color, what would it be, why, and what does it taste like?

Well, last time you asked me this I said periwinkle, so I'll pick a different one this time. My sheets are a nice pale green, that I feel would be soft and lightly sweet and minty, so I'm going to go with that.

2) If you could change one law of the Universe, what would it be?

Umm... I feel like the consequences of this would be more far-reaching than my tiny min could comprehend, so I'm never sure what to say for questions like this.

But I guess I'd like to alter whichever law is responsible for rabies. Specifically to make so rabies wouldn't be a thing that existed.

3) What is your favorite mythological character/creature?

4) What is something you feel very strongly about and would argue for in every situation?

The right to self-identification in terms of sexual orientation and/or gender identity

5) What is a show/book/movie that you thought you would hate but you ended up liking?

Back in the day I thought I wouldn't like Invader Zim

Ha. Haha. Hahahahahahaha

6) What is the most interesting fact you know about the weirdest animal you’ve heard of?

Well, the weirdest animal I thought of first were nudibranches, but I couldn't remember anything about them besides that they existed, so I cheated and Wiki told me that they have bilateral symmetry both externally and internally.

7) When was the last time you cleaned your belly button?

I guess this morning when I took a shower? Which is unusual because I ususally take my showers at night.

8) What are your views on guilt?

I think it can be a useful feeling, but I feel like our culture often uses it to the wrong ends. (i.e. We should stop making people feel guilty for, say, eating a piece of goddamn cake at a birthday party, but if we were to leave rapists to carry around horrible heart-wrenching guilt and shame for what they've done then I'd happily participate in this form of social control).

Same on an interpersonal level. Like, there are some things it's okay to make people feel shitty for. And then there are things there are not.

Also it sucks as a symptom of a mental illness.

9) What is a topic you would voluntarily write an essay on/give a speech on?

Hamlet

10) What is one character or person you think many people have misconceptions about that you would want to “set right”?

(Are you trying to get me to talk about Sam Winchester? Because if I start talking about Sam Winchester this would get very, very long)

Umm... today I'm going to say Navi, from Ocarina of Time.

Because I love Navi, but most of the fandom absolutely hates her. Which is fine, you don't have to like any given character.

But what always makes me really angry is when I see things depicting Link hating on Navi and/or killing her violently.

Can u not?

Link does not hate Navi. Link cares about her very much. He's fucking looking for her at the beginning of Majora's Mask. God fucking damnit.

Like, okay, sure, for us Navi just says "Hey, Listen!" every ten minutes or so to tell us things we often already know (which never bothered me, personally, but I know it irritates other people). But I get super absorbed in stories, and so what I always saw was how Link is, at the tender age of however fucking little he is at the beginning of the game, entrusted with the fate of the world, ripped out of time and place and told he's not actually who thought he was at all, braves unimaginable terrors, and through all that Navi was always there to support him and help him and just give him company and I can't imagine there being anything more precious to Link throughout that journey.

(Like seriously, if you hard to be there in person, how would you like to have to go through the bottom of the well alone?)

Okay I;m going to stop now because I have a lot of OoT feels and I could write volumes about just Link and Navi.  (Link and Navi is my Brotp to end all Brotps, okay?)

11) Can you whistle?

No *sobs in a corner*

Okay, now I have to make questions? Oh goodness.

1) What do you think of body modification (i.e. tattoos, piercings, etc)?

2) Can you ride a bike?

3) Do you have any Original Characters? Tell me about one of them.

4)What's your favorite kind of chocolate? If you don't like chocolate, what was the last animal you saw?

5) What's you sign? What do you think of astrology?

6) Do you have a funny story you'd like to tell?

7) What is your Brotp to end all Brotps?

8) Your favorite season?

9) Is there a story behind your icon?

10) Current favorite internet video?

11) Do you have something you want to vent about? Or just talk about at length? DO IT NOW SEIZE THE DAY!

And I'm tagging: meoplelikepeople (if I can tag back :P), pixarmc, bumfuckeastjesus, saelol, pastelsharktopus, neptea, princessbrinney, swirlofenjoyment, sneekanika, freemaninthetardis, startales, and spocklockhale. Which is 12, but I'm probably not supposed to tag back so I'm not sure if that one counts.
