thai basil - are you very different when you’re alone to when you’re with other people? if so, what are the main differences?

I think so. I don’t mean to be but I tend to be trying much harder to exist either more visibly or less visibly than is entirely natural to me. when I’m alone i let myself exist to an appropriate extent more easily

Tokyo. then I’d make my way in a general westerly direction from there and see what happens.

a talking fox was a character in a recurring dream i had as a child but more recently I’m pretty sure i had a dream with charybdis in it

dill - if you were a type of alcohol, what would you be (or tag a friend and say what they would be)?

methanol.

kaffir lime leaf - is there any phrase/lyric that always gives you goosebumps? what?

and then I felt chills in my bones

the breath i saw was not my own

i knew my skin that wrapped my frame

wasn’t made to play this game

and then i saw him, torch in hand

he laid it out, what he had planned

@twentyonequasars I’m curious what yours is

lemon verbena - what scent shower gel/shampoo do you use?

lavender body wash, argan oil shampoo, conditioner depends on what there is in the shower cause mine always gets used up by everyone else quickly so I just use theirs.

smoked paprika - are you a drunk texter?

nopppe

lemongrass - what way do you face in the shower?

towards. the. water. (guys I’ll be real the only reason I made this ask is so that I could spread this question because it doesn’t get asked often enough)

fuck, i don’t want to get political with this one. shit. but like. maybe overthrow the dictatorship in North Korea? or else um.. well i don’t want mike pence to be president so fuckety fuck this shit I’m out.

sweet paprika - how do you show affection?

answered previously but it has become apparent in the meantime that the way I actually show affection is through a montage where we teach each other survival skills and dissociate peacefully together.

parsley - if you came back as some form of the undead, what would it be (e.g. ghost, vampire, zombie etc)?

answered previously

pepper - what’s your personal theory on why cartoon animal characters wear gloves?

answered previously and i recommend you think about this one carefully because its a deeply philosophical topic.

rosemary - what’s a specific image of situation you associate with a specific song?

Taxi Cab is associated with driving through the desert at night for me, despite the fact that i’ve never actually done that.

rue - tag a mutual and say what mythical/fairytale creature they remind you of.

@noahcantsleep you’re an imp, a pixie, mothman or thunderbird. I can’t quite decide. @acadjonne you’re a dragon or a siren that’s all for now folks contact me if you want to know yours

saffron - if your life took place in shades and tones of a single colour, what colour would that be?

hmm I want to say grey so it’s just a greyscale world then but something is pulling me towards yellow despite the fact that I dislike the colour yellow. I’ve probably just got mustard on the brain and I’m wishing for some golden sunsets or something. Although pink would be interesting too I guess.

sage - how old do you want to get?

Ask me again in 40 years but for now I’m saying 80.

szechuan pepper - if you were a member of a pantheon of gods, who would you be in which pantheon?

so first off I absolutely loved the Norse pantheon and Norse mythology as a kid so that one’s special to me but I love the concept of shakti from Hinduism. I don’t think I’m quite as empowered as she is though. So then going back to Norse Skadi is super cool and badass but also kind of rude and standoffish and prefers her wolves to people but again I felt she was too Accomplished and Together, so I’m going with half born Hel cause I always vibed with her.

thyme - do you want to be buried/cremated/something else etc?

I don’t really want to remain anywhere? you know like if I’m cremated I want my ashes to be scattered. Viking funeral if the apocalypse happens before I die and that kind of thing becomes acceptable again. If not I probably want to me used as forest fertiliser or something. I like trees.

vanilla - what position do you sleep in?

on my stomach mostly, fetal sometimes. depending on how many cats there are around, i may have no choice because they like to lie on me and i am a slave to their will-

zaatar - what would you love to have the freedom to do without repercussions of any kind?
