So this uh, was asked over a year ago. But hey, it's answered now!

1. What's a unique skill Nate has? Is there any reason why he can do it?

Unusually for someone living in a small, quiet town like Aldstow, Nate knows a ton of skateboarding tricks. One of his uncles got him a skateboard when he was seven years old, and for five years that was what he spent almost all of his non-school time doing.

2. What are Connie's favorite possessions? Why? (sentimentality, history, price, etc.)

Some of his books, for different reasons. One because it was the textbook for one of his favorite college classes, and is still an informative read even now. Another because it was a gift from his parents that he re-read a lot in childhood. And one just because the leather cover feels nice in his hands and it has a good heft to it.

3. Does Amanda get jealous easily? If so, what usually causes it?

On occasion, a really attractive woman persistently flirting with her SO has made Amanda jealous, but not often. Her ex Simon got hit on at least twice by men, which she found hilarious (Simon was incredibly straight), and once she and Lanzo work things out, she finds she doesn’t care so much about people flirting with him, partially because she trusts him, mostly because she knows from first-hand experience that getting through Lanzo’s emotional barriers enough to even start an actual relationship is way harder than any aspiring homewrecker would have the patience for.

4. Is Ash a good gift-giver? What does he tend to give as gifts?

Ash’s gift-giving instincts are fairly reliable if he knows the recipient well enough, but he’s missed the mark more than once. If he barely knows the individual, it’s even worse.

In order of likelihood, books, tea, candles. He recognizes that other people like things other than what he likes, but it’s just so much easier to give things he knows he’d like to get. This is the chief problem with his gift-giving.

5. What's Lanzo's reputation like? Does this reputation contrast what he's really like?

Lanzo has a lot of different reputations. 

At work, to all but a few perceptive regulars, he’s the worldly-wise bartender with a mysterious past who’s willing to listen to you ramble about your problems but avoids offering advice, except weirdly specific things on random occasions. 

This is not completely inaccurate, but it’s definitely more of how Lanzo would like to be seen than how he actually is.

To those perceptive regulars, he’s an average guy who’s lived long enough to have some weird stories, and is charismatic enough to weave a convincing air of mystery out of it.

This is considerably more accurate.

To those in the house, he’s laid-back and easy to get along with for the most part, though you have to beware his sense of humor and occasional desire for chaos, but he’s really good at smoothing things over if he upsets you, and there’s also the chance that he’ll be incredibly perceptive about something that’s bothering you and have some oddly specific but actually really helpful advice for the situation. 

8. What does Aidan's dream house look like?

A treehouse, for starters. Sparse on furniture, but a lot of hammocks and tall shelves with space for perching. Nuts or fruit-bearing plants in the vicinity, as long as he doesn’t have to tend them himself. And a swell video game system, for when Nate visits.

9. If Niner could change one part of her appearance, what would it be?

If we’re allowing changes that are not biologically possible, she’d made her nails grow faster and break less easily. She’s always trying to grow them out super-long, but then one of them breaks on something and she has to trim them all down or otherwise it feels weird, and the process starts all over again.

10. What's a simple thing that brings Q joy?

Fireflies.

13. How forgiving is Angie? What does she consider unforgivable?

To Angie, forgiveness is a sacred responsibility. For the most part, she doesn’t find it hard to forgive, even if the other person doesn’t seem genuinely sorry. 

She doesn't consider anything unforgivable as such, but one of the worst sins in her eyes is a total lack of principle. Hypocrisy or failure to live up to your own principles is bad, but at least those people believe in something.

14. Who does Chris go to in a crisis/emergency? Any particular reason why he chooses that person?

Any situation dire enough to force Chris to seek help most likely requires professionals, like firefighters or S.W.A.T., but assuming it was something sufficiently non-urgent for him to reach out to someone specific, that would be his sister Marie. The reason being, Chris would hate having to ask for help, and his sister would be able to figure out the situation with the minimal amount of actually explaining/asking for help, and would respond in the way most soothing to his ego.

16. What food does Reagan absolutely hate?

Beets. The first time she tried them, they made her gag almost to the point of vomiting. The lengths to which her aunt was willing to make her eat them, on the one or two occasions per year she served them, only reinforced Reagan’s hatred of them. 

17. Does Neal show a lot of affection, or is he pretty reserved?

Very reserved, unless he’s comfortable and very close with someone. Then, in private, he’s very affectionate, and eager for reciprocation.

18. If you had to represent Ian with a flower, color, and animal, what would you choose?

Flower: Dandelion. Grows easily, bright and friendly, some consider it an annoying weed.

20. Is Elise easy to wake up in the morning, or grouchy and sleepy?

Closer to easy to wake up. Elise isn’t a bright-and-shiny, “good morning world!” kind of person, but once she’s up she wakes up quickly, especially if she has some caffeinated tea or coffee.

22. What's Julie's silliest or most unusual fear/phobia?

There are certain kinds of elevators that make her anxious -- it's more an aesthetic thing than anything, but "pure metal" elevators are worse than ones with glass, carpeting, etc. It's a combination of some bad experiences, a few memorable elevator scares in media, and (the biggest reason) one really terrible, very memorable nightmare when her dad was sick.

24. Is Lauren a fussy eater?

She could be incredibly picky when she was a child. As an adult, she’s less so, but mostly because she lives on her own and so she gets to make all the choices about what she eats.

25. What are Jerome's dreams like?

He only remembers a handful of dreams he’s had in his life. They were intense, colorful, and very, very bizarre.

27. Is Kayla forgetful? What does she tend to forget? (plans, phone, keys, etc.)

She has an exceptionally good memory, even once she’s human.

29. Is Knife a good cook? If she is, what does she like to make?

Unless heating soup or one of those “just add water” macaroni and cheese bowls in the microwave counts as cooking, Knife doesn’t really cook. 

31. What holiday does Hannah like the most? (Christmas, Easter, Valentine's Day, etc.)

Christmas! 

It’s the most wonderful time of the year. She starts practicing Christmas songs in October, helps her parents (and grandmother, when she was alive) decorate the day after Thanksgiving, and makes gift bags for all her friends at school. Her favorite thing (after presents) is when they go out to look at Christmas lights: they bundle up, go out and get fast food to eat in the car, then drive through the best-decorated neighborhoods her dad knows of. She loves everything about it, though: the music, the cookies, visiting (some of) her family. She also likes the Christmas story her dad reads.

33. Is Elarin adventurous, or does she prefer to stay in her safe zone?

Elarin was probably crawling out of her “safe zone” when she was a baby. She’s scared of very little, and almost never shows it when she is.

34. What's Meaghan's favorite drink? (Coffee, tea, juice, hot chocolate, soda, etc.)

Some type of relaxing herbal tea from a planet she’s visited. She also likes a few alcoholic beverages, though she doesn’t drink those often.

38. Does Leah get lost easily, or is she good with directions?

She’s better than most with directions. Leah has a good grip on the cardinal directions, which helps. Her memories of the pre-war Boston area interfere sometimes, but they also help -- she just needs to remember to look for half-collapsed ruins instead of skyscrapers sometimes.

45. Is Avery always late, on time, or early?

Avery can be anywhere from two hours early to four days late; the one thing she never is is on time. She makes an effort for people like Aveline, with schedules and deadlines and things, but she just doesn’t have a punctual bone in her body.

Thanks for asking!

pretty sure this is from Graham Hagmaier's twt (pls correct me if im wrong)

At the beginning of Two Of Us DJ's talking about Silly Love Songs - and we slide right now in:

How can I tell you about my loved one?

I love you, I love you

Ah, I can't explain The feeling's plain to me Say, can't you see?

etc

But we don't hear this song, Peter Frampton starts to sing instead:

I wonder how you're feeling…

Then we move from Paul to John who's listening this song too. These shots set the tone for the whole film: the song playing in our (and heroes') heads vs the song we (and both heroes) can hear. John and Paul scan each other again and again: I wonder how you're feeling… - instead of just saying the words of Silly Love Songs. The song remains behind the scenes and it's words don't sound but we (and the heroes of the story) keep hearing they inside of us: I love you… Say, can't you see?

I'll take 'Brunettes I'd like to Cuddle' for $1000, Alex. Ooooh, the Daily Double! My answer?-What is 'All of Them'?

And I know 'brunette' is taken from french and is the feminine form, but I don't care. Gendered language is fucking weird. This is how I learned to spell it in english, though, so brunette it is.

How is it, every time I watch Michael Collins, I'm surprised that Alan Rickman is in it? I've seen this film over a dozen times and I still go "ah, Alan Rickman!" every fucking time like an arsehole! 🤦🤣

Educating the kids this morning, not that they give a fuck.
