I'm so excited to read the update, but it's late here sooo maybe just a silly question. Is tobin a coffee or tea person? morning/night? i loveee him!

Haha. Fun! :) I'll do all the ROs 'cause why not, and I also added some dumb questions of my own (in increasing order of dumb-ness) because I'm extra like that.

Coffee vs. Tea

Rayyan (the black petroleum-esque trucker shit)

G (espresso if possible. brought a mokapot in their tiny luggage)

Sam (coffee, with milk and sugar, preferably cold. what are these other people?? monsters??)

Tobin (tea, but not after 3pm because they'll be up past bedtime otherwise!)

Morning vs. Night

Tobin (morning for sure. loves the gentle, calm, wholesomeness of the world waking up)

Rayyan (morning. usually gets up ready to rumble)

G (night. you wonder if they even ever sleep.)

Sam (up all day all night bebbyy)

First-name-basis vs. Last-name-basis

Tobin (first-name basis, except in polite / respectful situations)

Sam (first-name basis. down with the hierarchy! but family is important, of course. heh.)

Rayyan (last-name basis, unless they really like you. and even then.)

G (last-name basis - that is, if they even remember your name)

Pineapples on pizza?

Sam (heck yes!! best thing since toasted bread)

Tobin (respects the attempt at having complementary flavors, but prefers something else, like - jalapenos or arugula)

Rayyan (will fight you)

G (just won't eat it)

Zombies or vampires

Tobin (vampires. something about living slowly, deliberately, with lots of time to pick up myriad hobbies)

Sam (zombies. they walk funny)

G (vampires. might be one. jk, it's not that kind of IF.)

Rayyan (neither. what?? ok, fine, werewolves??)

How passionate are the ROs in arguments? Is it different if the topic's opinionated vs. there being an actual correct answer? I'm talking surface level like are fish wet underwater, pineapple on pizza, "the wicked witch of the east, bro" type quarrels.

Ooh good question.

Warden: Not really; quite averse to verbal conflict in general, would rather do a big shrug and stop talking. (Or a “you’re right” + noncommittal laugh if he likes the person he’s arguing with).

Griffin: Extremely argumentative, especially if the person she’s arguing with returns it with equal fervor. Griffin can easily adapt to the other person’s energy, high or low, but is happiest and most engaged with passionate arguments. Never quite raises his voice too loud though.

Mia: Will SCREAM arguing but it’s usually short-lived – she has the passion but doesn’t actually have the energy to go on for too long. More like an argument sprinter compared to Griffin’s argument marathon runner.

Dart: Doesn’t tend to argue, but you can trick him! Dart is vulnerable to getting trapped in a smooth sharks loop if you insist on being wrong about something he knows is right. He gets exasperated very quickly but is insistent.

Jade: Only argues with people she really, really loves. Generally takes a “come on, be sensible about this” tone/approach, but if you’re anything like Griffin then you can REALLY get her heated about the dumbest topics for hours.
