what is your earliest memory?
My memories are so scattered it’s genuinely hard to tell, but one of my clearest ones from childhood is the time a snapping turtle ended up in our driveway and my mom relocated it in a mail crate
the witch returns again but this time she's not offering any bargains, she needs a taxi to get home and was wondering if you had any cash on you. if you don't give her any she won't curse you but she will call you a cheapskate and you do keep running into her so it might be awkward next time you cross paths
I’m getting a choose your own adventure novel at this point omfg, if I’m carrying cash that day I’ll give her some
if you had infinite money where would you go??
There are so many places I would love to visit! Even just within the US I want to visit as many national parks as I can (especially Mammoth Cave), and historic sites in general.
the witch taking your ability to taste fruits question again, but this time, she is asking for your ability to rhyme on purpose. she is making the same offer. how large does X have to be for you to take the deal
I can’t rhyme for shit so I would take the deal without much effort tbh, probably two or three
More lore on your kids?
always! Though more specific questions are good haha my brain is kinda empty rn
My other Roe gal, Turbulent Indigo, was a farm kid in Coerthas when the Calamity hit and her family’s land became frozen and barren. She stuck it out for a little while but eventually traveled to Ul’dah to try her luck as a gladiator and make some gil to send back to the people who couldn’t or didn’t want to leave. She’s about 35 as of ARR and is hopelessly in love with X’rhaya’s big sister X’yalika :)
who is your fav arr npc
Of the ones who are mostly or exclusively in ARR I’m very fond of Loonh Gah from the Amalj’aa questline! Also Brayflox, though she puts me Through It, remains wonderful
a witch approaches you and explains that she cannot taste fruits. she makes an offer where she takes your ability to taste fruits and in exchange she will use her magic to manipulate fate and prevent the next X times someone you know personally would have died of unnatural causes. (there is no time limit on the spell) what number would X have to be for you to take the offer
This is a compelling question XD I’m not sure, but maybe ten?
No idea if this has been before, but! Top five favorite video game/book/movie/etc series?
Oh man okay I’ll do movies for now and we can see if I have braincells for the others later
In no particular order: Pacific Rim, Mad Max: Fury Road, Labyrinth, The Shape of Water, Knives Out
should I make kyhun a kitty again before 6.4, or just do it right after the update
live your truth but I do miss kitty
Share more lore or your WoL/children?
:D always! I’ll talk a bit about one of my roe gals since Rhaya gets a lot of love haha
Bright Ruby was raised by her older brother (still not sure about his name) in the Shroud; they were sent away from their home village when she was a baby to protect them from a clan war that was brewing. She’s always been very aware of her “outsider” status despite living in the Shroud her whole life, and has been careful to maintain her natural cheerful demeanor so as not to be subject to more xenophobia. She’s 18 at the start of MSQ, after finally being fed up with how everything was exacerbated by the Calamity and striking out on her own.
Not an actual question, but could you give some lore on your WoL?
That’s a question! And a question I’m quite happy about too haha so X’rhaya was born in a tiny village in the Peaks of Gyr Abania and lived there until he was around fifteen or sixteen by which point the imperials were making life in his village substantially harder (honestly just by cutting them off further) and he left to become an adventurer in the hopes of sustaining himself and lessening the burden on his tribe. He’s trans (intentionally) and autistic (because I don’t know how to write anything else lmao). If you have specific questions lmk I love talking about him and my other children :D
tell me about your favorite kingdom hearts character
oh anon you are my favorite
I have several but chief among them is RIKU MY BOY. struggling with his identity, feeling like he's doing things wrong for going his own way but ultimately finding that his friends love him unconditionally and will support him finding a path that works for him. A+ no notes except that I wish he had long hair still
(bonus answers: Terra for same reasons as above and sea salt trio as a whole for learning to be people when everything around them is telling them they aren't)
is you and helen putting up retrospring questions at the same time caused by a gay mind link
entirely possible but you’d have to ask her, I’m just in an oversharing mood as per always
how do you feel about women with low pitched voices
LOVE. ADORATION. (I’m very fond of deep voices in all genders tbh)
I'm too much of a coward to ask an actually interesting question but hiiiiiii
hi nerd <3 you can always ask anonymously lol
