*squints* I am intrigued, and it will be a long hour and a half before Merlin downloads. So:

01) Are you currently in a serious relationship? Bwahahahah! Ah. That would require me to find any kind of relationship at all.
02) What was your dream growing up? To be a paleontologist.
03) What talent do you wish you had? Either the capacity to learn foreign languages, or the ability to play a musical instrument.
04) If I bought you a drink what would it be? A lemon lime & bitters with gin.
05) Favorite vegetable? Bok choi, because it's green and healthful and tastes like whatever you cook it with. Nom.
06) What was the last book you read? Maurice Gee, The Priests of Ferris.
07) What zodiac sign are you? Aquarius.
08) Any Tattoos and/or Piercings? Explain where. None, though I am planning a tattoo of Smaug between my shoulderblades for my 21st birthday/graduation from uni. Piercings, however, freak me out.
09) Worst Habit? Procrastinating.
10) If you saw me walking down the street would you offer me a ride? Well, I would offer to walk with you. If I had a car, sure.
11) What is your favorite sport? To watch? Figure skating. To play? Some form of horse-riding.
12) Do you have a pessimistic or optimistic attitude? Generally, quite optimistic.
13) What would you do if you were stuck in an elevator with me? Play cards and talk. Or, if you were feeling shy, I would probably just sit and draw things in awkward silence.
14) Worst thing to ever happen to you? Hmmm. I've had days that were big clusterfucks of upsetting things happening, but nothing truly devastating.
15) Tell me one weird fact about you. I have very hairy toes. Very.
16) Do you have any pets? Naw, the hall I live in doesn't allow them. ):
17) What if I showed up at your house unexpectedly? I would offer you tea and inquire about your general state in the hopes of coaxing out why you turned up unexpectedly.
18) What was your first impression of me? Fannish goodness.
19) Do you think clowns are cute or scary? Scary.
20) If you could change one thing about how you look, what would it be? My size. Hey, that counts as one thing.
21) Would you be my partner in crime or my conscience? Conscience. I am an intolerable voice of caution.
22) What color eyes do you have? Dark brown.
23) Ever been arrested? Nope.
24) Bottle or can soda? Bottle.
25) If you won $10,000 today, what would you do with it? Ooh! Put $9000 in my savings for various rainy days, and blow the remaining $1000 on comic books. I am not even kidding.
27) What's your favorite place to hang out? The internet.
28) Do you believe in ghosts? Not really.
29) Favorite thing to do in your spare time? ... The internet. *hangs head*
30) Do you swear a lot? Actually, yes. I didn't notice until I went home, but uni has given me a filthy mouth.
31) Biggest pet peeve? People who blame helpless clerks for the policies of big corporations. Also, the word "quip."
32) In one word, how would you describe yourself? Green.
33) Do you believe/appreciate romance? I've never experienced a lot of it, and sappiness makes my skin itch, but sincere affection covered by a healthy layer of snark kind of makes my heart glow.
34) Favorite and least favorite food? There can be no favourite - I love food too much. However, if I could ban the use and sale of mushrooms for food purposes from the entire planet, I would. I swear, my hatred borders on phobia at times.
35) Do you believe in God? Yes, for a very specific and not particularly religious definition of God.
36) Will you repost this so I can fill it out and do the same for you? Sure, why not.

I wanted to join the Air Force. That, obviously, didn't happen.

Is it because they don't field biplanes anymore? :o

Singing. I'm pretty much tone deaf.

But at least you still like musicals. X3

Root beer. The good stuff. :9

OMG, Kiffie, if you ever come here I have a treat for you. A local brewery makes awesome root beer and cream soda!

Is spinach a veggie?

Yes, it is. A DELICIOUS ONE.

Definitely! You is mah elibeen. :3

YAY OMG VOODOO! 8D

To play? Croquet. To watch? Soccer.

Croquet is fun. However, the time my uncle decided to juggle the balls and dropped one on his noggin? Less fun.

Sing, badly and off-key. :D

We would be a two-girl multi-musical revue. :D

...you know, nothing TERRIBLE has ever happened to me. I am insanely grateful for my awesome life.

That's actually pretty good. :3

I like to wear a cape. :D

What colour is it? :D

*SNORT*

I DID NOT MAKE UP THESE QUESTIONS.

I wouldn't mind being White.

Suddenly, a whole new world of cosplay options open to Kiffie...

Conscience, likely. I will do silly things, but only to a point.

I am honestly usually the conscience. Although if "crime" is interpreted as "silliness that is not illegal", well then...

Pizza, and eggs-with-milk.

....eggs-with-milk. What?

Artist, although in high school I had strongly entertained being a jewel thief.

I remember the jewel thief thing!

Gin and tonic

I think I will forever associate gin and tonic with the story in that little pink book of diary-like stories translated from Japanese.

I have a weakness for purple nail polish but I'm sure you know this

I do know this. Purple is nice. :-) I also like blue.

I would apologize for the mess and then offer you tea and snacks

I would accept, naturally.

it was so long ago, I think it was "is that red headed girl using star trek as an example? Someone else my age watches star trek ?" (a friendship built on geeky things was born)

No. My last relationship left such a bad taste in my mouth, I am a bit hesitant to get into another one right now. To be honest, between you and me ( and anyone reading this *lol* ) I wouldn't mind dating a girl right now.

*petpets* Just keep in mind that girls are just as human as guys.

It changed all the time. I wanted to work in law, wanted to be a doctor, wanted to be a model, wanted to be many things. I also wanted to be famous. Not rich and famous, just famous. Like have my art well known or something

The logical part of me would rather be rich then famous. But the rest of me wants a statue erected of me before I die.

I wish I was a writer.

It's really one of those things you have to get better at by doing.

I don't know. What would you buy me? For some reason, I picture you buying me a Shirley Temple.

Actually, I love Shirley Temples. X3

If I knew what you looked like and knew it was you, of course! :D Unless you wanted a ride back home. :D;; I live pretty far from where you live. . .that would be a long drive.

Yeha. Even if I had money for gas and snacks, a coast-to-coast roadtrip is a bit much to expect when you just meet me on the street.

ME LIKEY HOCKEY.

ME TOO! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eghkLY12U8) :D

I like the taste of marshmallows and pizza sauce together.

*lol* I don't think I've ever tried that.

You intimidated me. I was pretty worried over what you might think of me and was worried you thought I was an idiot or something. I thought you were cool so I tried hard, but yeah. I was pretty intimidated. I don't know why. Just being honest.

I've noticed this happens a lot! I have some very good online friends who intimidated the hell out of me before I got up the gumption to talk them. (Also, I'm told I can be intense. Sorry!)

I wouldn't have freckles.

Aw, why not? Freckles are cute!

Being interrupted. Or seeing people interrupted.

Wow. I would probably drive you crazy in person. ^^;

Either the capacity to learn foreign languages, or the ability to play a musical instrument.

I learned languages (although they really do atrophy in my brain as I don't just them) and I learned to play instruments -- but I always need a mini-refresher course on how to read musical notation, and I've forgotten how to make the notes I want on the instruments. :/

Maurice Gee, The Priests of Ferris.

I have to tell you that I very badly wanted to make a John Sheppard joke here, but I couldn't choose one. So please imagine the worst possible pun.

None, though I am planning a tattoo of Smaug between my shoulderblades for my 21st birthday/graduation from uni. Piercings, however, freak me out.

Smaug the Magnificent? In colour? Any particular illustration?
Why do piercings freak you out more than tattoos? If I was going to be freaked out by one or the other, I think that a straightforward scarred-over puncture would weird me less than injecting hundreds of tiny dots of ink under my skin and leaving them there. ;3

Well, I would offer to walk with you. If I had a car, sure.

I am also carless. We can walk together. It would be better for us and the environment.

To watch? Figure skating. To play? Some form of horse-riding.

I love to watch figure skating, but my mom didn't really pass her horse madness on to me.

Play cards and talk. Or, if you were feeling shy, I would probably just sit and draw things in awkward silence.

My reaction to feeling shy is usually to start talking, actually. XD

I have very hairy toes. Very.

So the Smaug tat is because you're secretly a hobbit. Gotcha.

Ooh! Put $9000 in my savings for various rainy days, and blow the remaining $1000 on comic books. I am not even kidding.

Okay, now I want to know which comics. Back issues and trades you've been meaning to pick up? Collector's items? Imports? Just everything coming out all over the world? What? :D

27) What's your favorite place to hang out? The internet.

Why did I not think of this answer?

Also, the word "quip."

"Quip" is much more interesting when you know that it's etymology goes back to a bit of sarcastic Latin.

There can be no favourite - I love food too much. However, if I could ban the use and sale of mushrooms for food purposes from the entire planet, I would. I swear, my hatred borders on phobia at times.

Does that apply to all fungi and toadstools? Also, why?

Heh, yeah, I know my preferences re: tattoos and peircings is a weird one. It's just the whole hanging bits of metal from very tearable artificial holes in my skin that makes me go eurgh. But yes, Smaug the Magnificent, from Tolkein's picture of him curling back on himself in flight above the Lonely Mountain. (Whether I will include the Lonely Mountain in this tattoo has yet to be determined. It would make it bicolour and thus more expensive, so I might leave it and possibly add to it later.)

My mum didn't quite pass her horse-madness on to me either - she lives and breathes them, she really does - but I still love riding them.

The comics I would buy would be: lots and lots of Alan Moore, including all the Top Ten spinoffs that he didn't write and the brand-spanking new-coloured version of The Killing Joke; all the Sandman; some Phantom for my dad; and as much Avengers as I can get my hands on. Especially the Marvel Adventures Avengers, because that is like the shiny happy puppy version of the Avengers where no-one ever gets hurt and everyone is best friends with everyone else. After a lot of 616, I need that. Also, the complete Dilbert and Calvin and Hobbes. Huh, you know, I might have some money left over after this imaginary $1000 spending spree to blow on movies. To the DVD store!

I have no idea where my hatred of the word 'quip' stems from, but I get the feeling that it's faintly condescending, like the other words I hate, 'quaint' and 'exotic.'

My mushroom fear is weird and inexplicable. I loved them on toast until I was about four years old, and then suddenly one day I absolutely hated them. I figured this out while chewing, and mushrooms and I have been bitter enemies ever since. These days, I can taste and smell mushrooms with a bizarre hypersensitivity that can make catered breakfasts quite awkward and flat-sharing occasionally hell - I get one whiff, and the stench lingers all day. I get mushroom paranoia. Thus all fungi are, by association, dead to me.

... I probably should have put "has managed to turn a particular food dislike into some kind of insane cross-species blood feud" as my one weird thing, shouldn't I?

A horse story!

From: [identity profile] eliyes.livejournal.com
Picture this: a stable where you can take guided tour rides. A young stallion who likes to hold his breath when saddled. A groom who didn't check to see if the strap was tight enough before sticking an unsuspecting teenager on the horse. A mom who slaps her daughter's ride on the rump.

End scene: he took off like a shot; the saddle, with me still in it, slipped around to the bottom of the horse, and it's a good thing he was so tall or I might be headless now.

I haven't actually ridden since then.

... I probably should have put "has managed to turn a particular food dislike into some kind of insane cross-species blood feud" as my one weird thing, shouldn't I?

XD But then what you have talked about for food? Besides, you only had to list one thing. It didn't have to be the weirdest weird thing.

Only I was riding alone on a beach and my leg slipped through the stirrup and got trapped at the knee, so I got dragged a mile down the beach by a bolting horse with my head very much in the vicinity of her flailing hooves and all the skin on my back getting scraped off by the sand and... well, let's just say that it took me about a year to (literally) get back in the saddle.

*petpets* Just keep in mind that girls are just as human as guys.

Oh I know. Every relationship is bound to have headaches. Just my last one. . .argh argh argh.

It's really one of those things you have to get better at by doing.

;3 And to people who always tell me they wish they can draw, I say pretty much the same thing. :3

Actually, I love Shirley Temples. X3

That's awesome. X3

Aw, why not? Freckles are cute!

D: I don't like having them. *lol* I dunno. I got picked on and teased as a little kid because of them. ( Among other things. ) I dunno. I like that smooth clean skin look. My skin never looks "clean" with spots all over them.

Wow. I would probably drive you crazy in person. ^^;

Now, is it that you never give anyone a chance to talk or do you actually interrupt them? ^^;;

My skills in that arena have atrophied terribly.

Well, both. I've been a motormouth since I was a kid, but I've really gotten into the habit of interrupting people, too. It drives Tai crazy, but then, she interrupts me almost as often.

Well, I don't mind people who don't let others get a word in edge wise. :3 I'm a quiet person and prefer to listen anyway.

But, yeh. Being interrupted? I won't hate a person for it, but I think after a while, people who have the habit of interrupted me begin to notice that I am "put off" be something that they are doing.

:3;;; I usually don't say something about it since, well, I have the habit of not doing so. My mother is the worst for interrupting people and, well, I can't exactly snap at her ( as much as I want to sometimes. ) :D;

Being able to scare people away would be useful as a battlefield bard?

Tomatoes are a fruit. Cucumber is yummy. :3

Three fireworks tattoos on my left shoulder. 5 piercings: four in one ear, one in the other.

Okay, "fireworks tattoos" sounds cool and requires explanation and/or pictures. :D

I would if I had a car! (Kind of hard to offer a ride while on the bus.)

You could offer to pay my fare!

Take larger breaths to increase the oxygen capacity in my body so that when the air runs out, I would be the one to survive. *small evil grin*

Pshaw, I am the person at work who's in charge of turning the fans off in the elevators at night, and I still use them after. I am wise in the ways of not fearing the ventilation will fail.

My hobby is playing with molten glass.

I already knew that, seeing as I fangirl your beads on dA. ;3

I would make coffee and pull out the futon. (But you won't show up at my place ever now because of my evil answer to the elevator question. :( )

The first time I went to my best friend's house, her little brother attempted to smother me with a throw pillow. I went back. ;3 (However, I don't usually drink coffee.)

I luuuuuurrrrrvvvvve your fic.

D'awww.

Blue. Unless I wear a green shirt, then they're green.

Interesting! Mine do something similar, except with green and amber. I'm two parts of a traffic light set. o_o

No, but came close once (I was framed- seriously. For theft. It sucked big time).

Shitty. High school?

go to Vegas and see all of the Cirque du Soleil shows there.

That actually sounds really cool. :3

Nnnnnoooooo. 8| *shifty*

The quality of your response leads me to believe that I might be able to convince you otherwise with the clever application of testimonials.

Cookies, shrimp

To be a writer...Or a mermaid.

Why does it have to be either/or? Kelp paper and squid ink, man. Kelp paper and squid ink.

Broccoli!

*high fives!* I love broccoli.

I don't like latex paint because I think the shine makes walls look slimy.

I don't like the texture. But I keep having to be around when places are being painted.

Since I don't know you in person, I probably wouldn't answer the door.

Not even if I was delivering pizza? :D

You like comics? (This sounds bad but I honestly don't remember why I friended you, but you always seem cool in your posts. I think we're both in boostle?)

We are both in boostle, and it's not that bad. Most of my friends I met or at least befriended because of shared interests. Star Trek, comics, rpgs...

I'd be taller. Like, 6'0"

It always ticked me off that there's nearly a foot difference in height between my parents, but I am still shorter than my mom. I expected to be 5'7" at least. ( ._.)9 Curse you, genetics!

No, but I'll indulge people who do.

I enjoy being indulged. ;3

People who don't understand humor.

My greatest daily trial during teenhood was that people couldn't tell when I was joking, and often accused me of sarcasm when I was being sincere.

Favorite food issss....turkey sandwich. And least would be cabbage. Or mayonnaise if that counts.

It goes in your gob, thus it is food. Mayonnaise is frequently gross.

No, I don't really do memes, but if you want you can reply to my latest entry with this. :D

I may. XD

It's partially because in my family, I'm not the only chatterbox and I sometimes had to compete to be heard. "If you can't get a word in edgewise, don't wait for an edge, make a wedge -- interrupt." When I think about it, I try not to do it. I seem to be worse for it lately, though.

OMG, Kiffie, if you ever come here I have a treat for you. A local brewery makes awesome root beer and cream soda!

YES PLEASE. :D :D :D

We would be a two-girl multi-musical revue. :D

*takes out sheet music and coughs politely*

Laaaaaa~!

What colour is it? :D

The last one was red... X3

Suddenly, a whole new world of cosplay options open to Kiffie...

That's mainly it, yeah. Not many people my color in comic books.

....eggs-with-milk. What?

It's like... scrambled eggs. But people pour milk over the eggs, like someone would do with oatmeal. It's disgusting. D:

*sadface* I have almost totally lost the ability to read music.

That's mainly it, yeah. Not many people my color in comic books.

I still say that just opens up the possibilities of playing folk who aren't any colour seen in reality. Like Soranik Natu (red), or Jennie-Lynn Hayden (green), or Tasmia Mallor (blue), or Shikari Lonestar (grey).
