@Admins, what is your favorite: genre of music, animal, and passtime? And do you realize what awesome admins you are?
These are tough questions! Genre of music: indie rock. Animal: snow leopard. Pastime: knitting and crocheting…also reading, gardening, going to live concerts, watching old monster movies… it's hard to choose!

@Admin- Knitting? Knitting and crocheting?? Someone else on the CB knows how to/likes to knit?? Awesome!! 😀 What're you working on currently?
Yes, I am obsessed with knitting and crochet! I am currently crocheting a vest that I am designing for a big yarn festival that we have every year in Chicago, and I'm also knitting a sweater that uses up a bunch of scraps, so it's very colorful but also taking a long time. It's a great hobby and I love making things I can wear. I try to make things to give away as gifts, too.

@Admin- Wow, cool! I don't crochet, only knit, but I can imagine how difficult it must be to crochet a vest! I'm currently trying to tackle my very first baby sweater as well for my little newborn cousin. XD Slowly, but surely, it's coming along.
A baby sweater is a great project! You just have to keep making things, and keep challenging yourself to make something a little harder than the last thing you did. Slowly you will grow your skills and be able to make anything you want! Of course I am still learning, too. I just took a class to learn how to knit socks and it was great to have a teacher show me that.

@Admin- XD Yes! And to think that last year, I was still only knitting washcloths, here I am with a baby sweater! Knitting socks is very difficult. Everything I've learned about knitting, I gleaned from knitting booklets or YouTube videos, so socks were a challenge. XD But once you get the hang of them and know the basic pattern, you can just kinda veer off and get creative! I've made my little sister socks from a pattern that was intended for adults. XD
It sounds like you are well on your way to becoming a great knitter. I taught myself to crochet when I was 11 using books from the library– I wish I would have had YouTube back then, too!

I don't participate in any sports xD
My Patronis is a dolphin, and my house is Hufflepuff.

@Admins, what's your favourite food?
@EG, where have you been lately? I haven't seen you on the CB for ages; I really miss you. What's your favourite book genre?
@Gracia, I love your name! When did you first join the CB?
@Imputy Jane, is your name from a book or something? If not, what was it inspired from?
I love a good wood-fired pizza with sausage and lots of veggies!

There's a book by Rumer Godden called Impunity Jane that's one of my favorite children's books. My IRL name is also Jane, so I tend to use Impunity Jane as an online name.

@Gracia
Nevermind, I just realised you changed your name. Were you Allie?

Heh well, I'm answering these questions a bit late, but my hobbies are reading, writing, sketching, fangirling, uhhh, obsessing over LOTR and Harry Potter and Keeper of the Lost Cities in particular under the fangirling and reading categories.
SPEAKING of Harry Potter, that leads up to the other question. My Hogwarts house is Gryffindor, and my patronus is a Granian winged horse.
Oh and piano and walking my dog are my sports, xP.
@Everybody, if you have a funny story about your pet(s), I'd love to hear it!
-
@Aspen- we just got two new kittens and they are ADORABLE! One really cute thing they do is sleep in this little basket we have on the porch where they are right now together. They also are escape artists! The minute you open the door they'll be by you. And they love to jump onto the windowsill and usually end up falling off.
Once my dog (as a puppy) got her head stuck between the railings of our deck XD
And I have a somewhat crazy story about my aunts' dog Lola (aunts' is plural on purpose). So starting at the beginning, my Aunt A had breast cancer a few years ago and my Aunt MJ, who lives in the Dominican Republic, came home to take care of her while she had a surgery, and she brought one of her many dogs, Lola, with her. My aunt A fell in love with Lola and asked if she could just keep her, and my aunt MJ said yes because she had like 10 dogs back home (she lives on a farm). So anyways, fast forward a few weeks, (when my Aunt MJ had flown back home) my grandma goes to feed Lola because Aunt A is gone for some reason, and Lola gets out. And runs, and runs, and runs. They put notices on Facebook and everywhere. Finally, they found her at the airport, which wouldve meant she had to run across a highway! XD but anyway, she is safe and happy now, and has been for 2 years here.
Do you have any funny stories about your pets (if you have them?)
-
Our cat thinks she's a dog and our dog killed a rattlesnake. She bit it behind the head, dropped it on the porch, it was half dead and wriggling. bleeding everywhere. Poor snake, but yay, JUNO! I'll add rattlesnake to your list of victums, including 1 wild turkey and around 500 lizards. With one two foot long lizard in it's own section.

Yeah xD

My Hogwarts house is Ravenclaw, but I don't know my patronus.
Funny story about my pet, huh? Let me think… sometimes my dog licks the air, and it looks pretty funny. And he tries to eat the carpet sometimes. But once my family was sitting on the couch with a blanket over our feet, which were resting on the ottoman. Then our dog started shimmying under our feet and, like, wrestled with the blanket. It was hilarious.

I have a funny story about my pet (though you kind of had to be there for it)!
So my pit bull mix Casey is terrified of fireworks. (She's terrified of pretty much everything.) She also loves to eat the dry grass clippings that show up right after the lawn's been mowed. So I was taking her for a walk on the fourth of July and she was eating grass, and she was in the middle of chewing a mouthful when these fireworks went off. So she perked her ears up, and somehow all the grass fell out of her mouth. It's kind of hard to describe the funniness of it, but it really was hilarious.

@Everybuggy- What is the origin of your username?
-
Well, everyone probably knows by now I have a crush on the Winter Soldier, I'm assuming. So that's part of it. I'm not entirely sure where the Agent part came from. But I was on the CB for the first time and I hadn't exactly figured out a username yet, so I was just like "What the heck, I'll use Agent Winter as a placeholder name until I figure out a better one." I'm pretty sure that's how I came up with the name, anyway.
-
Lyra was taken and Cockleburr just sounded so right to me. I have no idea where it came from, it just popped into my head.
-
Viola is one of several names I was considering (and posting under) when I first joined Kyngdom. I added the question mark at the end because of the uncertainty that I would keep it–like saying "I guess you can call me Viola?". And then it stuck, and now I just like it this way. Although I get asked about it a lot, and I've learned that nearly everyone thinks it's because of and pronounced the same way as the musical instrument. It is not.

My username's 'first name' is a tribute to Tiberious Stormwind a critical role dragonborn played by Orion Acaba, who died fighting a white dragon. My favorite quote from him is ' I encourage PEace" Which weere written on his gravestone which is a marble statue of him after he was fround frozen in a block of ice by Percival Fredrickstein Von Musel Klossowski De Rolo III. Rip. The last name is also to honor him since he was part fire dragon and well, fire. That, also combined with the fact that I like the way it sounds Tyberious Firestone.

My name originated from the first ever RP I joined! It was Coconut the Dog's warrior RP. It was the name of my first ever OC who i dubbed Moonfrost. That is how I got my name and why I can turn into a black cat.

Well, Soren is a character from Minecraft Story Mode, and I assume you all know by now that I'm obsessed with it. Three of my best friends (and some of my only friends XP) also play it, and we started calling each other names of characters from it according to personality. Gavin is Gabriel, Oliver is Ivor, Logan is Reuben, and I am Soren! At first I was Soren P. (The P standing for Potter, cuz I'm also obsessed with Harry Potter), but that was just to boring, so I started thinking of cool words. Infinity was one of the first things that popped into my head. Vióla.
And if you were wondering about my location, BeaconTown is Minecraft Story Mode's main character's home town.

@Everyone
Any other songwriters here?
-
*shakily raises hand* mostly without words, I play the flute, so its mostly flute and piccilo and panflute, so… short and sweet. (I only play flute)
-
-
@Soren: I don’t really play video games…
@Vyolette: Neko is Japanese for cat. I like Japan, I like cats.
@Pooki: Yes! I am mainly a poet, but poetry is similar to song so sometimes I put music to my poems and call them a song.
-
@Vyolette-
Jwyn is a shortened version of my nickname, which is an altered version of my name. I use Jwyn as my username for almost everything, but I’ve always secretly wanted to change it to Indigo Feather.
@Pooki P.-
I think of myself as a songwriter of sorts, but I may not officially be one, as I haven’t written an entire song. However, most of my poems are written with song-like rhythms, because I write them with a tune in my head, and I’ve made a few partial-songs in my time.
@I can’t remember who asked this, but-
My Hogwarts house is Ravenclaw, but I also have a little bit of Hufflepuff too. I have not found out my patronus yet.
@Impunity Jane-
You like to needlefelt too? Way cool! What’s your favorite thing you’ve made so far?
@Anybody-
What is your favorite thing to do on the CB? (SIs, SLs, SWs, RPs, Word Games, Lyric Threads, Happiness Threads, etc.)
I like SIs and Ski Lodges best.
-
I like being able to interact with others, because, y'know… y'all so dang nice!
