For my temperate climate zone people: How many layers do you sleep with in the winter? I use a sheet, vellux blanket, quilt, and two down comforters rated warm. I also sleep in a full sweatsuit.

[pan-matsuri]

I have OCs, but... it's also been many years since I last did one of this question prompts. And I am a bit of a character if I do say so myself.

1. Are they happy with their body?

Sometimes! Some parts, I'm finding, are not better with age.

2. Do they have any secret piercings or tattoos?

Secret for who? No piercings, but some people don't know about some of my tattoos because I wear clothes most of the time.

3. Do they collect anything?

Games, manga, posters, things I like.

4. What is their favorite music genre?

Alt-rock and emo from 1998-2012. Bubblegum J-pop. The soundtrack to Tony Hawk's Underground.

5. What music genre, if any, do they hate the most?

I'm not very fond of country or classical, but I really dislike acoustic pop and modern folksy songs.

6. What is their phone background/lock screen?

A picture of Rukia Kuchiki that I edited to fit my phone.

7. What is their shoe size?

10.5, unless I'm bowling, then it is a mystery.

8. Do they have a favorite fabric or texture?

Soft. Those Vellux blankets from Kohl's are from heaven.

9. Do they have a favorite professional sport?

Baseball is bestball.

10. How do they decorate their living space?

Eclectically but everything has a place.

11. Are they messy, or do they clean up?

I don't dust ever, but it's not like I'm not leaving trash around.

12. What’s their preferred sleeping position?

On my side until my hips, neck, and back complain and then I keep doing it.

13. Did they have a favorite comfort item as a child?

It's the same as the ones I have now.

14. Do they have a favorite period in history?

No.

15. Can they cook? What’s their favorite thing to make?

Yes! I don't have a lot of recipes but I make a fun curry. Take ~3 lbs of beef chuck roast (trim the fat and butcher into bite sized bits), 3 big ol' russet potatoes (peeled and cubed), 3 big carrots (peeled and chopped), 1 medium sweet onion (chopped up randomly until it's bite sized), a box and a half of S&B Golden Curry (one box is like 7.8 oz and that is not enough) and throw those all in the slow cooker. Fill it with water, like just barely less than enough to cover the ingredients. Turn the slow cooker on and then just leave it alone for around 8 hours. Maybe add apples at this point if you want, but no sooner because otherwise they will melt, and while your curry will be sweeter, it won't thicken. Beg your friends to take leftovers please for the love of god it's more polite to not leave me with all of this food in the freezer.

16. What food do they hate eating?

I'm not a picky person but there are a lot of non-leafy green vegetables that taste bad to me.

17. Do they have any allergies?

Cats, bee stings, penicillin.

18. What was their worst injury?

Broke my elbow in 2021 while riding my bike fast in the hopes of being able to feel something again.

19. What movie is most likely to make them cry?

All of them! I am emotionally broken. I started reading SAO volume 3 and was feeling it 10 pages in.

20. What movie or book could they watch/read a hundred times and never get tired of?

I mean, given time, I can and will rewatch, reread, or replay anything.

21. Can they dance? Do they like to?

No! Yes!

22. What was their favorite birthday gift?

Per question 13, an Eevee plush.

23. Which birthday do they look back on the most fondly?

I don't usually celebrate them myself. I make a bigger deal out of other people's birthdays.

24. What kind of cake or birthday treat would they prefer?

Just something with other people.

25. What is their favorite animal?

I envy birds.

26. Do they wear perfume/cologne? What is their favorite scent?

I used to use vanilla deodorant which is my favorite smell, until the distributor for all the local grocery stores decided they didn't want to carry it anymore. Now I use hibiscus which at least is my favorite flower. We'll see how long that lasts.

27. What smell do they hate the most?

Wet peanut butter.

28. What sound do they hate the most?

Any sound that shouldn't be there.

29. What video game would appeal to them the best?

I actually really like racing games but I don't play them very frequently.

30. How would they relax on a day off/rainy day?

31. Are they combative? What is their fighting style?

Never been in a physical fight and I find verbal fights unpleasant. Rehearsed, yet scrappy.

No, but also I'm getting of tired of taking passive damage.

Summer: looks like they might sleep on the beach

Fall/Spring: these jackets I bought in 2014 are doing a lot of heavy lifting for my personality

Winter: please don't make me go outside it's such a hassle

Secret: women's cosplay

34. Do they have a dream job?

Teacher.

35. What do they do if they can’t fall asleep?

I don't. It sucks, but you can't force it if it's not gonna happen on its own.

36. Do they wear makeup regularly? If they don’t, would they consider wearing any?

Only when cosplaying. I would more if someone did it for me I think.

37. Do they prefer to be really cold or really warm?

Give me the heat of the summer. My body shrivels in the stupid cold winter.

38. What recurring dream do they keep having?

I don't think I have one. I'd like to have a partner I guess.

39. Can they drive? What vehicles are they licensed to operate?

Got my driver's license just in time for the DMV to get hacked.

I wanna ask what the origins of your PFP are

alright so back spanning from like… the 70s? until the late 2000s there was a puppet company called legends and lore puppets. their main thing were these hand puppets made out of vellux (that soft hotel blanket material), because the gimmick was that because vellux is waterproof and fairly durable, the puppets could be used as bath toys:

now the big claim to fame for these little suckers was they were featured in those baby einstein tapes that claimed to make babies smart or something. well that claim didn’t work on me because it was where i was first really exposed to opera music (besides when my grandmother would just. put it on in the background when i was a toddler????) and you see what that ended up doing to me in the long run

anyway legends and lore puppet co. ended up kind of getting screwed out of a deal with the baby einstein folks so they’re gone now (although their site is still up like a little ghost town). but by this point i’ve sort of adopted the dragon puppet as my sona because really puppetry is the closest thing i have to a solid gender… don’t read into that one LOL!

i also do have that exact puppet myself. once i get it fixed up i might start taking more pictures of it and acting as though they are self portraits.

and that’s the extended history of the red madmozarteanfelinefantasy avatar hope u enjoyed
