3. What is the weirdest scar you have and how did you get it? Weirdest is such a strange adjective for my scars. Cuz they aren’t really weird. They’re kind of purposeful. So I’ll give you a two for one. My favorite is my bone graft scar (from my c/left in case there’s any new followers reading) because it’s just a thin line over the crest of my left hip bone and I just think it looks really nice. It’s nothing more than a little paler than my skin now, not even raised. But I still think it’s really cool. And a stranger one is the divet that’s proving to leave a scar on my right shin because I keep kicking the corner of my bed in the exact same place…….. the duality of man, my guy

13. If you were going to go to the movies alone, what type of movie would you want to see? Probably a feel good or something thoughtful. Wouldn’t do horror or psychological thriller alone. But I’ve seen Disney movies (Inside Out omg) alone and really enjoyed that. 

23. What did you love most about the place you grew up? “Grew up” is a really odd concept for me. But I’m gonna say Daphne because I spent the most time there that I remember. Um. I don’t love a lot about Daphne. I do love that it was pretty easy to get around, everything was basically in one big loop. So I could get around it as a small bean in her dad’s massive Ford Explorer and pretty much know where I was going and feel like I could master it.

30. Ever been in love? I’ve never been In (Romantic) Love. I love pretty wholeheartedly and unreservedly. I currently love my qp partner. I love my best friend. I love my circle of friends. But romantic love still eludes me. 

31. If you could achieve anything what would be your number one goal? Financial stability, please. Being able to pay my bills without shuffling accounts around and be able to do my hobbies without feeling guilty about it. That’s p much all I’m invested in right now.

32. When was the last time you left your comfort zone? I visited my mom with all of my friends today and that usually would make me super anxious and uncomfortable (because I don’t want her to judge them or me, or misgender anyone, or say anything rude, or whatever) but it went so well? I mean I showed up in no make up, messy hair, and my partner’s t-shirt. And I wasn’t anxious and everything went really well.

33. Think of the five people you are closest to. Are they good people who influence your life in a positive way? Yes. Absolutely. I just spent 4 days in a cabin on the beach with them and I would say without a doubt that they are good people. Meme trash losers, but they’re my meme trash losers.

34. If you found $100 on the ground what would you spend it on? I’d probably just tuck it into my wallet and use it to bolster funds for getting through the month. If I had to treat myself with it I’d probably pay for a ballroom lesson with it.

35. Favorite quote I’m sure I have a new one but this is an oldie but a goodie: “We are, as a species, addicted to story. Even when the body goes to sleep, the mind stays up all night, telling itself stories.”— Jonathan Gottschall

37. List five good things that happened today We were able to pack up and clean the Meme Cabin and check out on time, we laughed a lot in the car, I wasn’t anxious at my mom’s with everyone there, I got to cuddle my puppies at my mom’s before we all went home, and my mom did some cleaning and grocery shopping for me when she was here so that takes a little pressure off my week.

38. Do you think we should make things happen or let fate guide our lives? A healthy dose of both, I’d say

7. Ever animated things before? Were they good? Not particularly. I did a little frame by frame animation in photoshop in like high school but I haven’t done much nowadays. I should given the amount of After Effects workshops we do at work. But I’m generally busy. One day. 

14. Have you ever stolen something? Not from a store, I don’t think. I’m sure I’ve taken things from friends with no intention of giving them back but I can’t think of anything off the top of my head.

21. Favourite singer? Right now I’m really blown away by the cast of Dear Evan Hansen! Such good pure voices.

28. Have any pets? I have a sweet old man that lives with my mom. He’s a 12 year old toy poodle who is a cuddly grump and I miss him very much. Mom has a new puppy (a maltipoo named Bellah) but I don’t consider her mine since Mom got her when we’d all moved out.

35. Do you have any siblings? Yup! Two older half siblings and a little sister. I say little. She turns 19 next month. Ahhhhhhh.

42. What are your pet’s names? Rhett! As in Rhett Butler. My mom named him and Gone With the Wind is one of her favorite movies.

brûler (to burn): what are you most passionate about? inclusivity in ballroom dance, socially responsible storytelling, and proper Harry Potter sorting

chaussettes (socks): what do you misplace the most? my sleep schedule headphones and chargers probably OOH my anxiety spray. I lose that SO MUCH. 

coquillage (seashell): what’s your favorite sound? I’m a fan of rain. I like the metallic sound of rain hitting our chimney. Waves at the beach are nice. I never really think about sounds that I like, mostly smells. But those are good ones.

croquis (sketch): are you artistic? what’s your favorite medium? I think so! Writing is probably my best and the one I feel most competent and comfortable in. But I think my dancing counts as a medium and I really enjoy that ^_^

tournesol (sunflower): favorite flower? Tricia and I were just talking like two nights ago about how strange of a question this is to us?? Like what’s the criteria by which people choose their favorite flowers??? How do you pick?? There are so many pretty flowers and I don’t know the names of any of them??? And I don’t really get flowers often to have formed an attachment to one kind? I don’t think I’ve gotten real flowers since I was in ballet??? But I have good memories with hibiscus flowers from Saudi so we can go with that? But I like sunflowers and carnations too.

It’s cheating to copy me, Potter :P

you should

Thanks, friend <3
