FINALLY DOING PT 2 OF BREE'S EPIQUE QUESTIONS thank you my fwend  ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ 

💌 sixty-nine questions for your ttrpg characters!

14. what keeps them up at night? right now he's extremely nervous about fucking up his status as his homeland's ambassador. it's been his dream to thrive in this role for a long, long time - even when it was just a like... long-shot silly fantasy. if he does a bad job at it, he's worried it'll ruin all the positive developments he's had with his family as of late (especially regarding his father lmfao), or that it'll endanger his home (WHICH HE LOVES!!!!! he looooves laverathia so much).

LIKE. reides is a confident person most of the time but he's made a lot of big choices lately. he was at a crossroads and he made a choice to start walking down a specific path. and it's the path he WANTS to take! more than anything!!! but now he's dealing with the responsibilities that come along with it. he was previously the type to run from his responsibilities as quickly as he possibly could so you know. big changes. big challenges. ;LDFKDLKG it's the most serious he's ever been about anything and he's gonna do his BEST but he's genuinely not sure he has it in him. lots and lots of fears circling around him rn!!! sleepless nights aside, he will meet them head-on >:)

15. is there something that never fails to make them laugh? as cheesy as it is, he loves aske's silly stories a lot. because......... he loves aske. 😳 LDKGDLGK otherwise i think he gets super, super happy every time he learns a new spell - especially when he manages to teach himself one. as a teenager his process of trial and error was a lot more funny, since his experiments would have some wacky little results, but he still has those bursts of joy whenever he succeeds at casting something new!

22. how would they decorate their living space, if they had a chance? he would probably opt to have it on land for convenience's sake, but having some sort of indoor pool for a water portion of it would be ideal for sure, since there's some stuff he'd likely want from laverathia which wouldn't be too well-suited to the surface world! and he would also definitely like to be close to the sea, too - so maybe the inside of this water zone has some sort of connection to the sea...? a sea pool? idk. technicalities. but that would be The Dream. a shrine to persana in that pool would also be ideal since reides is very faithful to him. ;^; that's his GOD!!!

but layout aside, the room would resemble a big study with tons of books and bottles of ink and various writing utensils!!! and it'd be decorated with a whole lot of whimsy!! lots of colourful furniture and paintings that make reides happy, prob with a bit of a nautical theme... and there'd be a lot of random objects (TREASURES!!!) that he picked up along the course of his adventures. along with a huge bed. huge beds are one of reides' weaknesses i'm ngl. it's the princely background showing. LMFAO

32. which of your decisions led to their voice being the way it is? i don't really put on a specific voice for reides - at most it's just like, a tone to accomodate his mannerisms - but in terms of how i speak as him... honestly it just comes to me with how i characterize him!!! i knew i wanted him to be kinda ditzy from the get-go, and i wanted him to say fun things very often (he definitely has no qualms with speaking his mind LOL)... so he generally has a cheerful, casual quality to how he speaks. and when he's angry, i want that anger to surge and crash!!! much like a storm. he's very emotional as a character so it's fun when i get to show off his volatileness. there's also usually a bit of a mischievous edge to him that i really love portraying hehe.

47. what could they talk about for hours on end? there's the obligatory wizard answer here (his magic), which is absolutely true, but on a more personal level? his home!!! laverathia!!! he never really gets the chance to talk about it (it's. you know. secret. for the most part. like most of the ppl up on the surface have no idea it exists sooo you know it's just not something he gets to talk about often. and he doesn't want to jeopardize its safety so he's not about to go off about it unprompted LMAO) but if anyone he trusts were to ask him about laverathian stuff he'd literally go on and on and on. it's crazy because he would deflect so much about it in the past but now that he's reconnected with it, he's just full of love for it. he will tell you all about the shipwrecks he explored and all about the stuff his fellow tritons craft and all about persana and all about EVERYTHING!!!!

[dolokhoded]

Fedya and/or Sonya for the character ask :)

blorbos >:)))

fedya

do i like them: no. obviously. /s

5 good qualities: he doesn't have any <3 he sucks <3 uhhh but uh he prob does, hold on. 1) really loves his mom !!!! that's good !! 2) he's uh. self aware at least? 3) i feel like he,,,,,has a pretty strong sense of justice. 4) he uhhh used anatole for his personal gain. king shit. 5) he's hot.

3 bad qualities: just 3? ok. 1) he's prob incapable of human emotion and empathy 2) he's petty and vengeful to no end 3) he always wants to start shit for LITERALLY no reason like,, my guy,,,

favorite moment: that moment after he argued with anatole before the elopement where they were in different rooms and they were yelling at each other through the walls like "COME EAT SOMETHING" "I DON'T FUCKING WANNA >:(". it was so funny. also nikolai's visit to him while he was recovering minus the misogynistic monologue.

otp: .......... you know.

brotp: him and denisov, or him and denisov and nikolai. they're not talked about enough.

ot3: i don't think i have one actually?

notp: dolokhov/petya. no no. that is a child. i do think petya had like a silly little crush on him but he'd never reciprocate he's a MURDERED not a pedo ok

best quote: his "here's to the health of married women", " to the health of handsome women ", and all its variations quote is pretty iconic.

headcanon: which one have i not talked about hmmmm. his sister's name is irina. i don't think i've mentioned that before. also he actually really appreciates some good music. it soothes him. and he's often, y'know very unsoothed.

sonya

do i like them: sonya is babygirl i love her

5 good qualities: girl. does sonya do anything bad ever? she's loyal, she supports her family, she's incredibly sweet and kind and just,, good. she's genuinely a good person and it's rlly weird because tolstoy wrote her.

3 bad qualities: she doesn't give herself anything. ever, she refuses to do anything for herself. also she wanted to marry her cousin. who she was raised as siblings with. so uh. incest i guess. and i feel like she can't rlly,, sort out her priorities which is why she ended up where she did.

favorite moment: that part where she was dressed as a man and she was just so energetic and so fun and just chaos mode sonya.

otp: i don't have any ships with sonya i hc her as aro

brotp: prob natasha but also i've been thinking about her relationship with vera and how they could potentially fix it and be nicer to each other (i've just been thinking about vera and why she is the way she is a lot lately). so that's been on my mind. but also her and dolokhov being besties is my wack hc.

ot3: see otp.

notp: her and nikolai. obviously.

best quote: i don't have a favorite book quote but in great comet all of her parts in the opera hit so hard for some reason.

headcanon: sonya never learned any music because the rostovs just didn't care about her that much (</3) until vera agreed to teach her some basic piano (very reluctantly). eventually she learned more on her own and she was pretty good. wow many music hcs today that wasn't intentional.
