Character Interviews!
This is a little bit like the threads where CBers are interviewed except instead of CBers, their original charries will be interviewed. I'll do all the interviews, unless someone would like to help out. You ask for one of your OCs to be interviewed, and I'll post a set of questions for them to answer. I thought this could be kind of fun, since it's a way to get to know your charries better, and see what other people's charries are like.
Here's a link to a CBer interview thread:

Cool idea, Mirax! Does someone want to interview my OC (from a book I made a thread about in BaB), Cassidy?

Thanks Bluebird! By the way, I love your book idea. Here's the inteview questions:
1. What is your full name?
2. Who is your best friend?
3. What inspires you?
4. Where do you see yourself in ten years?
5. What is your greatest fear?

*Here's the interview with one of the characters from my book, Gabriel.*
1. What is your full name?
Names? I never liked names. I called myself Gabriel from a paper-block, so I suppose that's it. ...what do you mean people have more names? What's that about? Um, wait, I think she called me 'Vee' too. So... Gabriel Vee? You Eutorians and your obsession with names.
2. Who is your best friend?
I DON'T HAVE FRIENDS. GOT IT? There is no room for friendship in the apocalyse world. You trust someone else, you die. But if I had to name people (which you seem to insist me doing) I could say Rachel. Or Duncan. BUT THEY'RE NOT FRIENDS.
3. What inspires you?
The thought of not dying.
4. Where do you see yourself in ten years?
...hopefully not dead. Maybe I'll live that long, unless another bot comes around. Or the rot epidemic comes back and eradicates the rest of life. *shrugs* That would suck.
5. What is your greatest fear?
Fear? I dunno. When you grow up without parents, have nothing but a machine as a companion, and literally experience pain every day, I don't think you're really... afraid of anything. Though admittedly I don't like behemoths. Giant metal abominations...
*He's not that positive.*

I would happily let you interview my main charrie from the book series I'm writing! Her name's Amber.
(December 16, 2016 - 6:55 am)
Thank you, Mirax! Here are the answers:
1. What is your full name?
My full name is Cassidy Ann Kingsinger, but my real parents called me Ivy. I prefer the name my adoptive parents gave me, though.
2. Who is your best friend?
My best friend is named Kitty Fisher. I met her when I was transported to another world... it's a long story.
3. What inspires you?
Anything in the fashion magazines I read. I love to sew and design clothing, so seeing other people's works is very inspiring.
4. Where do you see yourself in ten years?
I'll only be 23 then, and I don't want to be married that early; I can see myself living in a tiny apartment in a big city, making designs and just running my own little sewing shop. Hey, a girl's gotta have dreams, right?
5. What is your greatest fear?
I really have never liked heights. I also might be a little afraid of failure, but just a little- it won't stop me from going out and trying whatever I can.
(December 16, 2016 - 7:19 am)
I would love this! If only I could think of which OC to use. I think I'll stick with my most recent one: Pauline :):)
(December 16, 2016 - 8:16 am)
Could someone interview Rose Abbot, Alice Whittemore, and Arthur Irving? They are charries from a Victorian romance that Daisy, Coco and I are going to write. Thanks! :)

Here are Amber's interview questions:
1. What is your family like?
2. What is one thing you couldn't live without?
3. What is the perfect age for you to be?
4. Are you more of a team player, or a solo flyer?
@Rosy and Cho. I'll post the questions for your charries soon.
(December 16, 2016 - 1:16 pm)
1. What is your family like?
Half of them are dead, the other half insane. Next question, please!
2. What is one thing you couldn't live without?
I would say chocolate, but where I live now that's a rarity...
3. What is the perfect age for you to be?
Well, when I started this journey, I was twelve. Then one of my friends wanted to go back to Earth, but to do that I had to take her own immortality upon myself, so now I can't die or age. Bummer.
4. Are you more of a team player or a solo flyer?
I've learned over time to become a solo flyer, but I couldn't have pulled off half my stunts without the Wind, the Forest, Moon, Rory, Jade, Jordan, Jon, or even Pearl.
*sighs*
being The Girl From The Prophecy is hard.

(December 17, 2016 - 7:37 am)
I'll answer Bluebird's questions for fun with two OC's that I haven't yet written stories about (I just keep them in my head).
Pauline~
1. Describe your basic morning routine.
I admit that my morning routines have changed a lot recently, and for the better (I think), so it feel so good to have a new routine with my new family! Every morning I get up early and role up my mat, then Elysa (my "sister") and I chase Joel (my "brother") to the front part of our tiny house so we can draw the curtain that divides the one-roomed shack and get ready for the day. After that, I grab a few coins from our savings sack on a wall shelf for breakfast. Joel usually ends up having to hide our few valuable possesions and lock up the house before the three of us head to town to grab some breakfast from the bakery and get started sweeping the crossings.
2. What is your favorite/most frequenty worn outfit?
Elysa and I went girl shopping a few days ago so we could finally get some decent clothes! My new day outfit is a knee-length grey dress that laces up to my neck and has sleeves to my elbows, a pair of leggings that were white when I bought them, and leather slippers.
3. What kind of music do you listen to?
I occasionally here someone playing music when I'm sweeping the streets and walks for money. I like it, but I don't know much about instruments.
4. What is your favorite thing to do? Do you have hobbies like painting
or drawing, or do you like to do obscure things like shopping for
notebooks or collecting fallen leaves?
My favorite thing do to is hang out with Joel and Elysa. We just recently started calling ourselves a family, so I guess the whole "annoying sibling" thing hasn't set in yet. Sometimes we go pick berries at the vine up the road. In our land, growing plants and vines and trees are really rare. We get all the things that come from them imported from other kingdoms. So picking berries and hanging out is my favorite hobby!! :)
5. What are your strengths and weaknesses?
I'm strong when it comes to adapting. I'm durable and don't give up hope easily. Growing up in a renowned prison has taught me that. But don't worry—I'm not a hardened criminal, my parents were. Or so I think; I don't really remember them. Our kindom's justice system has fallen very far since the queen was assasinated. No child should have to spend 6 years in prison. But I did.
I don't typically like to admit weaknesses, but I do have a few fears. Like, my whole LIFE is based on three people; me, Joel and Elysa. If something were to happen to them—to us, my life would be ruined. Again. That, along with general fear...and yeah. I'm not a perfect person. No one is.
I'll do the other one later!

This is really interesting, Rose bud! I want to read this story.
(December 17, 2016 - 7:39 am)
Thank you Bluebird! I actually haven't written a story on this character. I make up hundreds of ideas all the time, but I'm such a perfectionist that only a few, if any, get down on paper.
