3, 15, 20, and 23 for Kalina :3

For The Botanist:

2. Can they take care of a plant? What about a pet? A child?

Yes, they can take care of pretty much any plant. Pets depend - they can handle any typical dog/cat/bird but are a bit lost when it comes to agricultural animals. Children are taken care of either in the ‘chaotic older sibling who doesn’t really care what you do so long as they don’t get in trouble for it’ or the ‘freshly minted helicopter parent who doesn’t want their baby to so much as get a paper cut ever’ manner. No in between.

6. Who will they take advice from, no matter what? Who won’t they take advice from, no matter what?

Kalina, because they’re still an idiot in love whenever she tells them to do something. Hmm probably the Wolfman? Just because they know he doesn’t have good intentions.

9. Do they empathize with non sentient things?

Absolutely - especially as the forest grows and they’re more and more isolated from other people. They talk to their plants and have ‘arguments’ with their garden gnome Yasha.

16. If money wasn’t a limit, what would they wear?

Ooooo definitely something fancy - think Billy Porter’s wardrobe and then some. Like this:

For Kalina:

3. Ask them to describe their love interest.

“I’m not in love - not like that, not for a long time...but they always knew how to make me laugh. They were strong and gentle and warm, with great love to give...and even greater ambitions beyond love.”

15. What would they consider a waste of time other than school/work?

She believes doing anything that doesn’t add to the world - makes it better, others happier, etc. - to be a waste of time. She believes our limited time should be spent making a world that will be kinder to our children than it ever was to us.

20. What do they like that nobody else does?

Human/humanoid statues! She comfortable around every manner of mannequin and other ‘uncanny valley’ type forms, despite how they seem to make others uncomfortable.

23. Stability or novelty?
