What is your favourite beverage?
root beer
the "boing" of a mario trampoline mushroom
On a scale of brood to yearn, how much would you like a hug rn~?
cheerfully accommodating and happy to give
I cast Haste on the router!! What arbitrary magic would you use to solve silly mundane things?
prestidigitation on my dishes... maybe thats too useful
I happily eat with a tea spoon regularly. And stirring tea with a tablespoon.... Nah don't want that.
what is the silliest fact people should know about you?
lets see:
Ive introduced mysaelf to someone by singing "Be prepared" from the lion king
i did Doctor Who cosplay to school in grade 12 cause i could
You just got home from a long day at work, and you find that food of some description has been prepared and waiting for you.
What would be the nicest thing to find waiting for you? Could be a dinner or dessert or anything else you could imagine.
Cinnamon buns, like what my mother makes
If you were given a chance to be an unskippable cutscene, what would you do an exposition about?
...hmmm I mean I always wanted a good campy villain monologue to act in.
Be very bad at my job... (my internal mental image is very "the Screwtape letters" coded)
Positives? A book club i attend started its summer book at a time i can join and see some friends. I got a nice haircut, whiuch ive meant to do for a while (with a load of compliments for my hair which is apparently enviable). i got an unexpected windfall, and was able to get my next "large purchase" earlier than anticipated. (A vr headset) and have been enjoying some reinvigorated free time with said headset, dancing to beat saber and trying new virtual worlds. also my dad took me to see the planet of the apes movie which was fun.
What is your typical driving force behind looking at someone's fedi profile page and deciding whether or not to leave a like on their introduction post(s)?
Typically? Vibes... I guess if i liked it, or found something amusing or heartfelt. Also i often fave introduction posts of people that seem neat as a way of being friendly.
Fine, just got home from work. Definitely crashed a bit from being tired. Probably gonna watch a movie or play a video game to relax now after dinner.
Choose your nerfed superpower:
Flight, but you can't get higher than two metres off the ground. Telekinesis, but your aim is always slightly off. Everything lands just short of you or flies slightly past you. Invisibility, but you can only be visible for a total of four hours per day. Extra set of limbs you have full control of, but they aren't human. Invulnerability, but you're also the clumsiest person in the world.While im tempted by rhe extra appendage., id go with flight. Even with the 2 meter limit id still be able to fo over people and most vehicles just a very practical power.
Psychopass!!! What do you like about it and how ~ different ~ did s2 feel to you?
What I like, well a lot of it. I think its a fun dystopian setting for a police procedural show (ACAB, especially SYBIL) and i think it was very adept at using its sci fi world building to explore philosophy and society. Also i enjoyed the cast, especially season 1. I felt they were all well rounded, quirky and compelling to watch.
The philosophy bit especially is a halmark of Gen Urobuchi the writer of s1 something i appreciate especially here and in Fate/zero. Its a very particular style, but he does it very well.
I was not as much of a fan of s2 (and haven't seen s3, i have seen the first movie and Providence). In general i think the main villain was as interesting, their gimmick didnt sit right "logically" to me (though that might be more of a cutural difference) and i especially wasnt a fan of Mika's characterization, it wasnt what i expected of her from s1, but also she was just aggrivating. i find her more palatable in the movies ive seen, even if she always feels like a thorn in the cast's side.
Also s2 probably suffers from being half as long so it doesn't have time for the interesting one off episodes that was a bulk of season 1.
Probably my relationship to the series is best summed ib the fact that i own s1 and the first movie on BluRay and not s2.
What is a song that you like to listen to when you are upset?
hmmm... I feel like I listen to music far less than most of my friends. so this happens less for me than others. but if i do... id say if i need something pulsing "Out of control" by Nothing's carved in Stone (psychopass s1 2nd op) and if im mellow The last goodbye by Billy Boyd (the hobbit 3 credit song).
