tagged by: @monkeysatemylastrolo (here is her post) who is writing the lovely Supernatural/Avengers crossover fanfic Trading places on AO3 under the username Vegetableswillhavetheirrevenge. I think I found your AO3 profile and therefore your fic through your tumblr, then promplty forgot about it cause you have a very different username :D
rules: you must answer these 85 statements and tag 20 people
tagging: This is so difficult... @tigerlilynoh @semirahrose @denugis @l-e-i-n-t-h @posingasme I’d tag @eruthiawenluin but she’s already answered here, @rirren @fioreitaliano @mixgoldenphoenix @forlorn-kumquat @waterbird13 but only if they want to. Any anyone else who wants to. :)
Sorry, but I’m incapable of giving short answers, apparently.
the last
1. drink: water. pretty much always.
2. phone call: my father, day before yesterday, about some potential tenants.
3. text message: ...also to my father, apparently. It was over a week ago, letting him and my mom know know when I was getting back.
4. song you listened to: not sure... it was in a fanvid, probably? I’ve rewatched sone SPN fanvids recently. Oh, no, it was that Anaconda/Phantom of the Opera mashup on here, wasn’t it? Yikes.
5. time you cried: I cry pretty rarely, and that’s usually because of a piece of fiction... it was either Atonement (movie with James McAvoy), or else a movie I don’t even know the title of, it just involved a grandmother almost dying, and I happened to be in the room at that part, and a relative of ours died recently - and I did not cry then, this stupid movie just triggered it somehow.
6. dated someone twice: how do you even count dates if you’re aroace but you slowly drift into a relatioship with your best (only) friend on a “I want to try this” basis? But I suppose the answer is: now, since I have a boyfriend at the moment.
7. kissed someone and regretted it: 2012 iirc, first time I tried kissing and hated it. But it was also good to know I don’t like it, so it’s not a big regret. Recenty it turned out I can like kissing, though.
8. been cheated on: never.
9. lost someone special: Mum’s cousin died a couple of months ago.
10. been depressed: it’s not to diagnosable levels, but I’m depressed and anxious a lot when I’m stressed, so this January-April had some difficult parts when I was writing my thesis. But 2013 autumn (I think?) was the only time I went to a therapist for it, cause wanting to die instead of dealing with stuff is not a nice thought to have that often.
11. gotten drunk and thrown up: never. I drink so rarely and so little when I do that I don’t think it will ever happen.
3 favorite colors
12. green
13. blue
14. yellow if mixed with the first two. Otherwise silver?
in the last year have you
15. made new friends: yes (but not close friends)
16. fallen out of love: so far I seem to be 100% aromantic...
17. laughed until you cried: Laughed a lot, yes, but I don’t remember if I ever cried from laughing.
18. found out someone was talking about you: what does this even mean? in secret? no.
19. met someone who changed you: do people who teach you stuff count?
20. found out who your friends are: ...no?
21. kissed someone on your Facebook list: what facebook list? I only kissed one person, and we are friends on fb, yes...
general
22. how many of your Facebook friends do you know in real life: All of them. I only have people on there who are to do with my real life, not my internet life. “knowing” them might be an exaggeration, though.
23. do you have any pets: my family has one cat atm.
24. do you want to change your name: Nope.
25. what did you do for your last birthday: parents, siblings & their SOs, cake.
26. what time did you wake up: Midday...
27. what were you doing at midnight last night: sat in my parents’s car, coming back from a day trip to the Cserh��t mountains.
28. name something you can’t wait for: I’m good right now... I’d rather this summer dragged on forever, since I just got my degree and start work in September (as much as I love my future job). There’s movies I’m looking forward to, but I can wait.
29. when was the last time you saw your mum: a second ago.
31. what are you listening to right now: birdsong; my parents talking at times.
32. have you ever talked to a person named tom: I don’t think so. Maybe. Does the Hungarian equivalent of the name count?
33. something that is getting on your nerves: politics and news. More personally (tmi?): the roots of my body hair getting inflamed all the time.
34. most visited website: gmail, technically, from where I go to FFNet or AO3 for fanfic updates. Recently, tumblr is creeping back up.
35. hair colour: brown.
36. long or short hair: short (pixie!). I got it cut almost exactly 2 years ago, I wore it long before then.
37. do you have a crush on someone: No, still aro.
38. what do you like about yourself: I have a high IQ. It has its drawbacks (mainly my conscience screaming “why are you not doing MORE if you have the ability”), but I don’t know what I’d do without it.
39. piercings: no.
40. blood type: I don’t know.
41. nickname: Wings on the internet, rather not say in person. My given name is from the Bible so it’s pretty common in a lot of countries, but the nickname for it that I use only exists in my country (Hungary).
42. relationship status: like I said: ‘dating’ my best friend who knows I’m aro and (mostly?) ace, on the basis “let’s give it a try since we enjoy each other’s company”. It’s going well, so far, but he’s been in Germany for the past few months on a scholarship.
43. zodiac: Taurus (ascendant: Libra)
44. pronouns: she/her
45. favourite tv show: I have a lot of stuff I love a lot, it changes over time which one I’m focused on. I don’t have the objectivity to choose from them. Supernatural and Stargate: SG-1 deserve mentioning because I haven’t only read a ton of fanfic for them, I have also written a bit.
46. tattoos: nope.
47. right or left handed: right.
48. surgery: None. My broken arm only needed a cast.
49. piercing: I’d like to leave monkeysatemylastrolo’s answer here: “Why is ‘piercing’ any different from the ‘piercings’ of question 39? Is there some special magical power people gain depending on the number of piercings they have?”
50. sport: Tai chi (Taijiquan). It’s great. It’s martial arts and meditation but it’s slow moving and graceful and I could start it when I was out of breath just going up the stairs. Never looked back. I would like swimming, if *something* wouldn’t always get in the way.
51. vacation: I’m spending my summer with my parents in my childhood home. It counts as vacation because there’s clean air and lakes and I won’t be living here from September, when I start working in Budapest.
52. pair of trainers: yes? What about them? I have two pairs of cheap flat-soled ones for tai chi, and a pair of not-really-trainers for street wear
(white, black, and light green, respecitvely).
53. eating: I just had some ice cream cake left over from my dad’s birthday.
54. drinking: water. again.
55. i’m about to: dunno. Read fanfic, probably, or answer some emails if there are any potential tenants.
56. waiting for: my graduation ceremony in two weeks?
57. want: realistically? To enjoy and earn enough money with the job I’m starting in September. Unrealistically? Superpowers, preferably ones involving flight, preferably wings + the assorted powers I made up.
58. get married: Probably not. I might enter a long-term relationship in order to raise children, if I come to want any, and then it might be worth it for legal&economic reasons, but...
59. career: Translator (Hungarian, English, some German). Just starting out.
60. hugs or kisses: Hugs. Not from everyone, though.
61. lips or eyes: is this a “what do I notice on people as attractive” question? In person: nothing. I do notice the eyes of some actors I’m a fan of, and the lips of one cause they’re always improbably red.
62. shorter or taller: I’m of average height for a woman, I think.
63. older or younger: Than whom? I’m 27.
64. nice arms or nice stomach: again: is this a “what do I notice on people as attractive” question? Again, nothing.
65. hook up or relationship: Mostly neither, but I have to say relatinship since I have something like that at the moment, and I never had a hook up.
66. troublemaker or hesitant: I’m mostly hesitant, except about stuff like climbing a tree on a hike or stuff like that.
have you ever
67. kissed a stranger: No. I’m definitely not attracted to strangers.
68. drank hard liquor: yes, to try the tase, or to settle my stomach, but always just a minimal amount.
69. lost glasses/contact lenses: Nope. Never had contacts. I did sit on my glasses on a holiday once, and they warped pretty badly, so I was without them for a little over a week...
70. turned someone down: Yes. All three people that ever asked me out, all of them after one or two dates (I felt like I had to try), all before I heard or thought about aromanticism and asexuality. The second involved a lot of tears, but then I was friends with him for a long time after that.
71. sex on the first date: Nope.
72. broken someone’s heart: I don’t think so. It might be on the horizon, though, if the boy I’m dating comes to love me and comes to hate the fact that I don’t feel that strongly...
73. had your heart broken: Romantically: nope, still 100% aromantic. It breaks my heart what we’re doing to the planet (and ourselves), though. Seriously, I have cried about that more than once.
74. been arrested: No, not even close.
75. cried when someone died: I think I only cried at the funeral, not when I got the news.
76. fallen for a friend: Never been in love!
do you believe in
77. yourself: Repeat after me: “I believe in myself.”
78. miracles: I believe in some stuff that sceptics would say is unscientific nonsense, partly cause I’ve experienced some of it, partly cause I’m hoping it’s true, but I wouldn’t classify them as miracles.
79. love at first sight: for some people, I guess it’s possible, I mean, there are enough stories about it.
80. santa claus: we don’t even have him in Hungary in the same form as americans&co do :) A dude based on Saint Nicholas comes on his day, the 6th of December and brings chocolate, tangerines and peanuts, but I know it’s my parents :) Christmas gifts are brought by the baby Jesus’s angels (again, also known as my parents).
81. kiss on the first date: Is that something to believe in? If you want it, do it, it doesn’t have anything to do with me.
82. angels: Ehh... no? Souls or similar, yes, some kind of afterlife, yes, because I don't think the human mind is just flesh, but anything as specific as angels? I have no way of knowing, and I don’t want to dismiss other religions by saying I believe in something that’s specific to only a few of them, so...
other
83. current best friend’s name: I only have the one close friend, who I’m “dating”, and I’m not telling you his name. (I’m bad at relationships. Not just romantic ones, but friendly ones as well. I have people I’m friendly with, but maintaining a relationship outside fixed programs like school, work, tai chi training, choir practice, etc. - how does one even do that?! I’m too lazy and too selfishly satisfied with my own company to spend my energy on that, apparently.)
84. eye color: green, but brownish (is that hazel?)
85. favorite movie: see question 45 about favorite TV show, except I never actually managed to write fanfic for any of them. How do I choose?!?! Star Wars, I guess? Return of the Jedi, if I have to choose one from them. The Matrix, if you want something a bit less fandom-y.
