It seemed that he wouldn’t get ANY readings done that day,not with her sing-song voice echoing in the room. The bookslammed shut; a muffled sound thanks to the atrocious musiccoming from the tiny music player on her dresser. Ronan turnedto her then, his eyebrows raising from beneath the cowl of his hood.

❋ Your blog is one of my favs

outofpatience;

You meant this one? Like you I had some problem keeping the thingies apart.

"It's been a long day, huh. I met a prothean and delivered some extraordinarily bad pickup lines to Liara and some others. But I'm tired now, so good night."

2. What drew you to rping this character?

There's a few different sides to this answer, I suppose. :P Jenna was my third MERP character and the fact that I started playing her can partially be blamed on my buddy/roomie iseultshepard (et. al. her other names :P ) who encouraged me to go ahead and let my Shepard out into the world.

Jenna as a Shepard char dates back to my initial foray into fanfiction before I started RPing; my first brush with the ME fandom was an audacious attempt at a blow-by-blow novelization of the entire series (which, unsurprisingly, I ran out of steam on almost immediately, although bits of it are still up on AO3 :P ). That was the genesis of Jenna Shepard's particular voice (though she had been developing through multiple playthroughs for some time before that, beginning with my initial renegade femshep, who had the same face but romanced Garrus and chose Destroy, as I recall :P ).

The character entire actually initially began as an OC in the Star Trek fandom who I have been playing almost for my entire career in RP. So Jenna has existed in one form or another in my head for almost seven years; at this point I'm pretty close to her. :D

17. What’s something you dislike about rping a canon character?

Tumblr is the first environment in which I've played canon characters at all, and to be honest, I love it. I've really had a great time with Aria and Mordin and Thane and Bailey and it's kind of hard for me to think of any answers to this question.

I guess the fact that there's a lot of focus required to maintain their voice accurately while still injecting your own interpretation. Like if you're playing an OC, whatever you say is right because it's your character. :P Whereas you have a little more pressure to be accurate if you're doing canon. (Though I'd also say that's part of the fun so I guess it's not really something I dislike.) I dunno, man. :P

22. Do you like lots of headcanons or few?

Um. Yeah. I have about three billion headcanons for all of my characters. Ask me about Jenna's time in the Reds. Ask me about Aria's time in the slums. Ask me about Thane's training as an assassin. Ask me about Torfan. Ask me about why they did a thing and I will undoubtedly talk your ear off.

3. What’s something you like about how you write?

Uhhh. God. I hate giving myself compliments. Um...I guess I like how I structure sentences based on the character I'm writing for. Liara's, whether narrative or spoken, are always a bit lengthy and decrpitive because that's how she talks. My Shep for example, sorta sweet and to the point. And sarcastic as all hell.

5. What’s something about your character that you’d like if you had to spend time with them?

Liara is just so nice. I love nice people. I love being nice. I think being around her would be refreshing and relaxing. It would definitely feel like I was in good company with good people. I like that.
