1. What is your favorite holiday?

Shit, idk... Probably Christmas or New Years? More New Years than Christmas because Russians have a different date for Christmas, a few weeks later, so New Years is our big celebration. Me and my mom get really drunk and watch Russian Television and wait for the President’s speech (yeah, it’s a... It’s just a tradition) But before and after that there’s a yearly concert/celebration type thing where all our famous people get together and perform concerts/jokes/so on and it’s just the time families get together and have fun and I love it. Plus we have oh SO MANY New Years’ Movies to watch. And we watch. All of them. And I do mean all.

2. Tell me about your first pet?

My first pet (or the first one that felt like he was really mine, at least, I lived on a farm for christ’s sake, we had way too many animals. Cats, dogs, so on) Anyway, my grandma got me a white-furred little kitten that I called Simka (after a simcard apparently? Which? Why? I think it was just laying on the floor and was the first thing that came to my head) Anyway, I fuckin loved this cat. And he loved me.We got him when I was 6. Once he grew up, he was the biggest, fluffiest cat and I loved him. I couldn’t always be with him though. When I was 9, we had to move to a nearby town so my mom could be closer to work (where we lived was technically considered a village) and the landlord didn’t allow cats. At the age of 10, I came here to America. And I only really saw him twice since then. He died when I turned 17. My aunt was taking care of him and, one night, she forgot to let him in. In the middle of a Russian winter. He survived a little longer, and lived with my Grandma for just a few more weeks, but there was no coming back from that. And I cried. I was already plenty depressed at that point due to some stupid shit that I really don’t wanna talk about (I’m sure like, 3 people on here know) so this kinda just... Piled on and broke me in the end. Plus a couple months later we had to put my dog Sandy down due to her being unable to walk because of age... It was a bad year lol.

3. iPhone, Android, or other?

Okay, I’m keeping this short lmao. I’m more of an android person tbh, butI’m coming to terms with having an iPhone. I only got it because of the podcast, but now I’m legitimately starting to like it! 4. Do you have a favorite video game romance?

Gotdam don’t do this to me. Please. I guess... If I had to pick one. Actually no, what am I thinking? This is the simplest one yet: Zach and Aerith from FF7:Crisis Core and Advent Children. My favourite bbys. So cute. 5. If you play dnd what is your favorite class to play? If not, what class would you like to play if you could play dnd?

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed playing walrock lol. But I’m also a dragonborn walrock in my current game, so that’s a huge plus. I need to try other classes too but oh my god am I in love with warlock currently. 6. Favorite mythological creature?

Okay THIS is the hard one. Fuck. I guess... Phoenix. But also Dragon. Fuck. A Dragon/Phoenix hybrid because I can’t decide. A Phoegon if you will... 7. What kind of bender (or non-bender) would you be in Avatar the Last Airbender?

Ooh. Fire bender, easily. Simply because of the ability to lightning bend lmfao. Lightning is legit my favourite elemental magic, so if anyone has that power? Hella down. 8. Do you have a comfort TV show you rewatch when you feel bad? If so, what is it?

You already know! Leverage for sure. Although Brooklyn 99 is easily starting to replace that. But I can thoroughly enjoy both to be fair. All you have to do is put on The Rashomon Job or the Studio Job and you have a very happy sleepy boi.  9. Do you have any foods that you dislike that everyone gives you a hard time about?

Hmmm... Dislike? No, I don’t think so. But like? Ooh. I got a lotta shit this halloween for liking worther’s and candy corn. Fuckin hell. So many grandma jokes. I guess I have transcended Romom and am now full GrandRomom. 10. What is your favorite board game?

DND for sure, if that counts (it better tho) if not, then Diplomacy. I fuckin love diplomacy despite not being able to play it in years lol. 11. Tell me a happy story?

Hmmm... Man, Idk. I’m much better at the sad and depressing tbch. Those are more fun to tell too... But still, to this day, I think one of my happiest moments was the first time I went to a convention. I went dressed as L, and my friends went full Fem!Johnlock (I was gonna do male!Molly, but didn’t have time or costume) but anyway, I met so many cool people and had such an amazing time I would fuckin love it if I do it again, but with like... a lot more friends. Hopefully. THat’s the dream at least lol.

RULES: Always post the rules. Answer the questions asked, then write 11 new ones. Tag 11 people to answer your questions, as well as the person who tagged you.

1. What fictional character has made the biggest impact on your life? - So I had an epiphany when discussing something with my husband a few days ago. My favorite Disney princess was Ariel when I was growing up, and she still is my fav, but when I was a kid, I think I had a subconscious reason for identifying with her so much. I was stuck in a household with an emotionally abusive mom, and when Ariel got yelled at by her dad, it reminded me of when my mom would yell at me, but Ariel stood up for herself and carved her own path and got away from the oppression imposed by her father. And I remember that I always wanted to be Ariel and I would watch the Little Mermaid like three times a day and it was probably because she was able to live her dream and get away from the things that made her sad/kept her from doing what she loved and I wanted to pretend I was her and that I managed to do the same thing. Kind of depressing, yeah, and it’s weird to come to such a realization at my age, but I honestly think that’s why I liked her so much. So I’d like to say that R or Riza or Roy or Lina Inverse or Integra Hellsing had the biggest impacts on my life, because they have, but I think Ariel has had the biggest impact because relating to her started at a very young age.

2. Do you have any pets, or are there any that you’d like to have? - I have a dog. A lab/heeler mix named Cooper.

3. What is your favorite fandom joke? - Save a horse, ride a Mustang. (That’s an old one I remember seeing way back in like 2003 and for some reason it stuck with me. lol)

4. If you could change anything about the FMA stories, what would it be? - Maybe give us a clearer answer about whether or not Roy and Riza were ‘seeing’ each other during the series. Maybe give us more details on Roy and Riza’s pasts before Ishval. Just, more Roy and Riza content really.

5. If you could bring any character back to life, who would it be? (Not through human transmutation though ahhh) - Uhhh, Maes Hughes or Greed or Buccaneer.

6. What is your favorite OST/soundtrack? - For FMA? I don’t necessarily have a favorite soundtrack since I don’t know the list of songs for any of them... I have a favorite song though. Period, the 4th opening.

7. Do you have any interesting hobbies? - Me? Interesting? Never. lol Um, I write and draw sometimes. That’s not very interesting though.

8. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be? - Somewhere in Washington state probably. I love dense forests and the Pacific Northwest is one of my favorite places. Plus the ocean would be close too, which is a nice perk.

9. What is one of your favorite FMA headcanons? - Hmmm... I don’t really know. lol I suppose my favorite is that Roy and Riza had a secret relationship going on, just because it’s my favorite trope to write about for them. xD I also like my headcanon about them getting the trial for their crimes like they wanted, but the jury ruling that they not be put to death because it’s more of a punishment that they have to continue to live, haunted with what they had done.

10. If you could live the life of any fictional character, who would it be? - Ummm, as much as I love and identify Roy and Riza, they were dealt bad hands in life so I don’t think I’d want to be in their shoes. >_> I would say my OC Xennariel, but again, she got the shit end of the deal in life, so eh. So maybe Integra Hellsing. Well respected, beautiful, intelligent, well versed in various weapons and how to fight with them, awesome bodyguard and love interest. Sure her dad died and her butler who was as close as family ended up turning on her and then dying, but I mean, overall, things worked out for her and she has it pretty good.

11. Fangirl about something. Just… use the rest of this space to scream in all caps and let everything out. Have fun. - I’m honestly really tired and don’t feel like screaming about anything right now. I’d much rather complain about how I wanted to get some of my prompts written, but am too tired to even think of anything good to write. lol So I’ve just been watching Jesse Cox youtube videos all day. I guess I could fangirl about him. Jesse is awesome, funny, and highly entertaining. He and Crendor are pretty much the only youtubers I ever am interested in watching. He makes me feel better when I’m down and sure he gets a little annoying sometimes because he always tries to pick up chicks in the games he plays, but other than that he’s awesome. If you have never heard of Cox and Crendor, they have a podcast on Soundcloud that’s hysterical so you should look that up, but if you really want to get into them, I would recommend watching their Saints Row the 3rd and Saints Row the 4th videos. I rewatch those yearly because they are so funny.
