Ask 5 Questions to the Above Person's OC!

First post to get the thread started.

Why did you have to hide being a vampire? 

I hid being a vampire because that's what my parents said would be best for my sisters and I.  Humans tend to be aggressive towards what they don't understand.  Since vampires are now a myth in modern society, I'd like to keep it that way for my safety. 

-whats your favorite non school related thing to do?

I'm a witch.  I practice witchcraft in my spare time, and I am a devout follower of my God.  Outside of my craft, I enjoy gardening.  My mother would let me help her tend to her garden when I was young, and I have enjoyed it ever since.

- did you want to attend human school or would you rather have gone to one popluated with demons?

The demonic world can be a socially unstable place.  As someone who is skilled with magic, I would be fine, but it feels morally wrong for me to become part of a system that encourages the systematic oppression of the non-magical and those of less powerful species. 

- Whats your favorite school subject?

I enjoy both history and English.  Writing is my most prevalent academic talent, so I manage to make high grades in both of those classes due to this.  Although I also enjoy taking Spanish, I'm not very good at it.  My grandma makes fun of me sometimes because of it.

- when did you figure out you were Bi?

I've always had an interest in both sexes since I hit puberty.  Unlike humans, the vast majority of demons are attracted to more than one sex, so it wasn't really an issue for me in regards to how my family would react.  However, being in the human world, I kept my identity a secret for a long time.  Though, I must admit, telling a human you're bi is much easier than telling them you're a vampire.

1. How hard is the training? Are most teachers really strict? Do they even allow you to take breaks every once in a while?

I've had many teachers, from learning with the other acolytes to even the gods. Right now the two most precious to me are my teachers and although training is hard, with combat and sparring and magic, i am grateful to have their help. Of course there are breaks, you cannot grow stronger unless your body is allowed to recover, and this body of mine needs rest just as you.  

2. If you weren't chosen to be an acolyte of balance, what whould you be?

I.... I dont know.... My life has been so consumed with this purpose. I'd like to think that i would have still set off to see the world and help others, but knowing everything i would have been a farm boy... or if i was lucky perhaps a scholar.

3. What does the holy scripture display? Is it a really long text?

Its not so long, you can read the main text in just under three months if diligent. It is a collection of tales of might and procedures and ceremonies to appease the gods. There are more tales.. like your myths? that are in murals and scrolls and great works of art displayed in temples and dungeons.  Of course in their true power the gods are both more awesome and less holy than I was led to believe. 

4. What's your relationship between you and Hatsuka's father. Are you okay with her sneaking out of her home to just be with you?

ah Lord Hatsuka, he treats me with a sort of reserved defference as most nobles tend to... Although i sense a bit of animosity directed my way underneath the gratitude...Personally i believe hes a fine man who does his duty well. As for Hime, I dont think i could send her home even if i wanted to, and by this point it has been so long that her home is just as much by my side as her fathers... if that isnt being too forward... We still journey back to her home so she can fufill any duties required but if you ask me the diploacy and trade that she arranges on our travels does more to imporve the lives of her subjects than recieving visitors in silks as a cortesy before they see the lord.

5. Is there any specific kind of sweets you like? Are there any special recipes and foods seen in Eros exclusively?

I like cakes, and candied fruits. In Eros there is a traditional sweet made of a pounded dough from rice and grain, with a notch in it filled with either a fruit or bean paste. But there are also the dragons heart candies that can let you walk through fire for a short time while you eat them as well.

Tell us about one of your memories of your father.

"Well... When he came back home to stay for a few weeks, dad came out with a suitcase full of knick knacks from various planets. He told me the various ways he got them and we had a big dinner at some nice restaurant. It was a good day to be alive."

What attracted you to become a bounty hunter?

"Aegus is a well known planet that houses a majority of combat related roles and the population's majority is athletic. That pretty much says one part of it. The other part is the opportunity to bring down some tough targets."

Do you ever feel guilty after killing or capturing someone for work?

"No. Not really. Though I'd be lying if I never felt a bit of remorse on a few. Besides, most of my targets are runaway criminals with large bounties on their heads."

What weapons do you use?  Do you have a favorite one?

"As you can see on the description I have on my records, I use knives as a weapon of choice. If you want me to be specific, most of them I use are made out of light energy (since you don't need to clean or sharpen them). And for special occasions, I bring out the metal knife I got from my dad or "retractable light claw" glove. Guns and vehicles are usually given to me when the job needs it."

What is your favorite food?  What flavors do you particularly enjoy?

"I guess take out can be considered a favorite 'cause I buy it all the time. Nice and cheap. Though, I wouldn't turn away at a free offer on some expensive restaurant. And I flavor I'd enjoy in a dish is savory and hearty. I've been eating instant oatmeal for years and I need something more in my diet."

(thank you so much!!)

1. What is your fondest memory in your angelic home?

I remember playing outside with my sisters as a small child.  My mother as at home, watching us from the porch.  It was nice, not having to worry about training, and still getting to see my mother and father.

2. Have you befriended any demons in the demon world?

I have.  The dryads I live close to are all very nice people.  

3. Are you transitioning? If you're not, have you considered it in this much more liberal society?

Although I have considered it, I am not transitioning.  Being genderfluid, I fear permanently transitioning to be female, or even more androgenous, would worsen my dysphoria during the times I identify as male.  

4. How is your relationship with Celine at the moment?

(This isn't written in his bio yet, but...)  ...I'm planning on proposing to her shortly.  We both enjoy it here, and she is excepting of me and my identity.  To be with her is all I've ever wanted.

5. Do you ever wish you reform Angelic Society, or do you wish to stay away in the demon world for the rest of your days. 

If I could, I would.  But I am just one seraphim.  Archangels are powerful creatures, and I don't plan on being a martyr when I have Celine and our daughter to take care of.  It would be selfish.

(I really love this character btw! If you need any art for them I would love to do so myself.)

(Aww thanks!)

1) Why do you want to be lawyer?

"To help the people of my city who are often forced to represent themselves in court because of their poverty. In the 'Wealth the poor are often discriminated against, especially those with 'criminal' backgrounds who only did wrong to survive. I want to help them defend themselves and get on the right path. I also want to defend abused woman and children, who are also often poor and can't get help any other way."

2) What was your relationship with your family like? Do you love them? Hate them? Try to enforce certain things you weren't into?

"I wouldn't say I hate my close family. My father can be mighty dense and just always concerned to our families image, but I still love him, I guess.  My mother is the sugar in my dad's coffee, but she can also be just as concerned with the family image as he is. I'm not too close with my older sisters, but I can't say I hate them. They just were too old for me to connect with. My brothers? I love them to death, as annoying as they can be. Even though my sister is often caught up in the spotlight, I still love her too.

Most of my other family, however? They are disgusting to me. But you didn't heard that, aight?"

3) Have you ever fallen with someone/had a crush on someone? Any challenges you face as a result of you having feelings for that person? 

"I couldn't tell any other soul this, but Bethlehem, the daughter of my mother's maid and my mother's apprentice, is just so close to me it feels like a crush. But I can't have a crush on her, that's just wrong. Right? Besides her I guess the man I'm arranged to marry? I don't know. Love is such a fickle thing."

4) What is your opinion on The American Commonwealth of Freedmen? What benefits have they given you? What about drawbacks?

"I guess I like it? I do live here and I benefit from living here instead of the United States. When I went there it was just a different story, the Jim Crow, the prejudice, it just shows you how sheltered the 'Wealth makes you. The poorest black man here will have a much better life than the a black man in the U.S. Yet being so sheltered in a harsher world, it's a drawback in itself. "

5) Has your sharp tongue ever gotten you to trouble? If it has, can you talk one moment that occured? How has that situation ended?

"I once called out my aunt for saying that I had "bad skin and bad hair" by calling her out for her multiple failed marriages. Lets just say my father is very good at taking his sister's side over mine."

(bump)

(Bump)

(OOOOOh darling. I love your character! She's so beautiful and the story behind it is oooo~!)

1) What was it like for you when you first joined Phantom Thieves?

"Quite frankly, it was like joining a group of friends who known each other for years. Said friends are one that hate people like you and simply tolerate you because you have a ability that is so useful for whatever they had planned. I never felt so uncomfortable in my life and it certainly didn't help that they treated me like sh-" Flynn paused, realizing he was going to curse before groaning. "-crap to the point they scoffed at some of my ideas and plans. Honestly, if it wasn't for the first mission, they would have probably continued to treat me like crap until I lost my mind or just quit. Then again, I'm...happy I didn't. Don't tell anyone this but being with them is rather fun."

2) Is there anyone in Phantom Thieves you are particularly close with? 

Flynn rubbed his head with a small blush. "Xander," he looks to the side. "I know that sounds weird if you know that we do bicker a lot and quite frankly dislike each other. However, let me explain. I don't know what it is about Xander but I feel like I can be open when I'm around him. Sure, he will make a snarky comment about it but I at least know he's going to be honest about how he feels. This does allow us to talk about things I wouldn't dream of talking about. I mean I talked about my fear for thunderstorms for Arceus' sake!" 

3) You seem diligent and hard working, but have you ever worked so hard you collapsed?

"Oh uh. I have..." Flynn blushed at this. "In fact, I have done this several times. I love my work and sometimes I can get a bit...too involved in it. It sometimes reach a point where I may forget to eat and drink." He raised a finger. "I never forget to shower though!"

4) Prior to your removal as a knight, was there anyone you just couldn't get along with?

"Ah yes. There was this one lady that my group would often deal with. She was a noble that was the sibling of one of the council. I don't quite remember which one specifically. She was a, excuse my language here, bitch. I have never met a woman quite as disrespectful and..arrogant as her. This is saying a lot since I deal with Xander and Erin on a daily basis. I think her name was Rebecca. She would always call her to find her Nyaruma (Glameow). It always seems to love escaping from her. I wonder why." He said that last part with a bit of sarcasm. "Everytime I come to her, I always seem to end up with a headache..."

"That's always changing with each job we take. However, if you want a specific one, I will have to say the M-150 misson. It was my first mission and it was a rough one. We originally thought that it was going to be the case of getting a typical item in high security. What we didn't suspect was the item in question to be a Pokemon of all things. Not only that but a strong one at that. It did not help that it was most certainly traumatized by the experiments it went through.  So for that, we had to worried about avoiding being killed, avoiding killing the Pokemon and avoiding the building we were in from collapsing." Flynn groaned, remembering that mission.

(Ooh what an interesting character. What a backstory owo)

5) What is the hardest job you've ever done while with Phantom Thieves?

Is it hard to be a leader,have you ever gotten frustrated and nervous?

It's very hard to be a leader. There are so many things to worry about, and it's easy to become stressed and frustrated. I've gotten that way on a number of occasions during serious situations.

Have people ever feared you because of your abilities?

There are some who fear my abilities, and people like me. It's just a part of life, and while I'd like to change their opinions, I don't think that's happening anytime soon.

Do you have any clues or ideas where the king would have dissapeared?

No one really has any ideas. I wish I knew. *frowns*

Do you have a good relationship with your family?

Absolutely! *beams* Even if it is just my sister right now, we're extremely close.

Was it hard to learn sword fighting?

*laughs sheepishly* It was hard. I remember how many times I would mess up a movement, only to be scolded by my instructor. Of course, I asked for such treatment. I wanted to learn.

 1. Do you like the fact you have to eat people?

2. What are some ways you've used your looks to your advantage?

3. Do you wish you could cut your hair without it hurting?

4. Would you want to live anywhere else?

5. What are your favorite ways to bait people, if you have any?

1. Do you like how pumpkin tastes or is that considered cannibalism?

"Pfffft, I love pumpkin! My friend Layla's pumpkin pie is the absolute best, though! And don't be stupid--I'm made of people parts, not pumpkin parts!"

2. What do you usually do to have fun?

"I like to solve mysteries with my friends at school or play with daddy's equipment! Mysteries are fun, you know? And if we can't find a mystery, then we cause something to happen so there'll be one! Hahaha! And sometimes my dad is away, so I like to mess around with the tools and the spare parts in the basement. Eyeball jars are fun to shake!"

3. What do you think of your father, is he a good dad?

"I love my dad. I mean, he made me, literally! He looked so happy when I came to life, and he's always really nice to me! He makes me food and fixes me up when my stitches fall off. He even put me in school so I could make friends, even when I know he could just teach me himself! Why wouldn't I love my dad?"

4. What do you aspire to be when you grow up?

"Ever since I met my friend Wild I've wanted to be a member of the Skeleton Guard! They're like, the really important police, you know? They protect the whole of the country, and they get to live in Hallows City and stop bad guys all day! Best job ever!"

"...But the thing is, I actually don't know if I can grow up."

5. How do you feel about your 'monster mode', is it something you wish you could be rid of or do you like it?

"What monster mode?" ((She actually isn't aware of her monster mode, she pretty much blacks out when she goes into it and doesn't remember it afterward.))

"Hmm..

1. How did you get into creating robots?
2. What caused you to grow feelings towards this singular robot?
3. Do you have any issues that caused you to think so much on your fraternal actions? 
4. If you were any of your other brothers instead; which one do you think what get the piece of the emotions that you have?
5. What made him dislike teenagers so much?"

   ---

"Thank you for the questions! I'll answer them best I can."

If you had a chance to get rid of Ciro completely, would you?

"Honestly, if I were able to; I would. Ciro has been a big impact upon my life negatively. He's so cruel, does what he wants with my body and most of them time, I've little to no control on the outcome of what occurs. Waking up to your body covered in blood or aching is the worst thing in the world, but... I can't say that he hasn't helped me too. Despite how he acts, if there's a problem I can't fix or I'm going in a panic, Ciro will be there to take over and help me get through it. It... Makes me feel that, even though he is who he is, he'll help me. Whether it's his own selfishness or not is beyond me."

Where did your obsession with candy come from?

"From my mother! She always showed me these awesome candies I had never heard of, especially Japanese ones, and it made me develop a huge sweet tooth, not to mention that I'll binge eat candy if things seem to start getting bad. Bad meaning if... Well, something's really bother me that doesn't require for Ciro's help, I'll just eat candy and get lost in the sweetness! Chocolate is especially good, but I prefer to chow down on some M&Ms. My dentist hates me a little for it."

Is there any flower you love in particular?

"Mm... That's a tough one! I really do love all kinds of flowers, but I think the one I love the most has to be a sacred lotus. I'm not sure what it is about these flowers, but I seem to catch myself staring at them the most in my garden. I've always been one for history, so I find it super interesting and cool that just a simple flower can be tied to just well known religions! Did you know that they can also regulate their own temperature just like we can? You can eat them eat too!"

How close are you to Hatsumomo? Do you two get along well or is he just quiet company?

"It's a little bit of both. It took awhile for us to warm up to one another, given how Ciro is and all, but him and I are almost inseperable at this point! He's like a friend I never had growing up and I'm glad that I found him when I did, since I was in the worst slump of my life due to how my father treated me at the time. Hatsu just wants to help others and make them happy, from what I've gathered over the years, but sometimes even he just wants his own alone time and that's understandable! Just him being in that quiet and dreary house is enough for me."

How bad can your asthma get and how easily can it be triggered?

"Oh goodness... It's very bad. It's gotten to a point where if Ciro doesn't take over, I can't get reach my pump, or someone isn't around; that'd be very bad news for me. I've a bit of a weak immune system and can be easily put under stress, so it pains me to say that it's easier than one may think it is. Just to make sure it doesn't trigger, I keep my house as clean as I can make it, try to keep myself calm and stress free as possble, and unfortunately... Not stay in my garden as much as I'd like to. I fear that being around my precious flowers for too long will trigger my asthma with all the pollen."

"I hope these answered your questions... I don't usually tell people these kind of things, but it's nice to let it out sometimes."

(aaamygosh, this guy has such a cute design !!)

1. If you had the chance to get rid of Ciro completely, would you?

2. Where did your obsession with candy come from?

3. Is there any flower you love in particular?

What is the most paranormal thing you have seen?

"The most paranormal, ah? Now that's a tough'un. Lemmie think fer a sec...

Ah, Gods. Yeah. Here's one. Pretty recent too.

We started seeing sightings of this weird masked guy, well, more teenager, walking around. Horse mask specifically. Heard monsters've seen 'im all over the place. He's constantly breathin' this... thick smoke, enough to actually make a decent fog. 'S how we tell if he's nearby now. Sudden fog. He hasn't done anything yet, though. Just kinda... stands around fer a few seconds and then disappears. Never heard 'im make a peep either. Only ever saw 'im once myself. Stood a good distance from the caravan, just enough to see his figure, but far enough to not really make out any details. Again, not doing anythin' either. Just standin' there. And once you see him, in a blink, he's gone.

Guild's been startin' to think he may be here for a reason..."

When did you start to smoke?

"...Ya know, I never really thought about it? Just kinda picked it up. That's... probably not too good, is it? Heheh. I think I started 'round the time I moved to the Gulch. Literally everyone, and I mean everyone, smokes out here. Which is fine for the monsters that can breathe all that shit. I'm not one of those monsters, though... Should probably try to kick this. But, uh, at least I don't smoke too much? I think?"

Do you think you will ever see your father again,and start to get along? 

"Ggh... I don't know about any of that. But, if ya really want an answer, I'm not sure. Few times I've been back home, I haven't heard anything of 'em. And he's supposed to be helpin' run Orethon with the rest of the family. But I ain't heard of 'im from the townsfolk, from the Guild, ain't even heard anything of 'im from Lili... ah, the few times we actually manage a decent conversation. So even findin' him again is one big question mark.

I kinda want to, though. Like... This man had at least some part in how god awful my brain is now. (And don't worry, I know I got problems.) But I kinda want to see 'im again, just to show off, I guess. Prove I'm still here an' made my own name.

Uh... Obvoiusly though, 'get along again' doesn't really fit into any of that equation. Especially after the whole disowning thing?"

Were your abilities hard to gain? 

"Gain? Not really. We're all just kinda born with our powers. Ain't no real gaining about it. Learning how to actually use 'em, though? Yeah, that could be fun sometimes.

Wy taught me what she could when I was a kid. Whenever she had me, anyway. She mostly showed me how to channel my psionics, gave me a starting point. I had to figure out how to actually use 'em properly on my own. She wasn't a hand-holder when it came to teaching, I'll tell you that. I wasn't, like, dangerous, though. More often than not I just knocked myself out after staring at a mirror for too long. Think I almost gave gramma a heart attack first time that happened. Heard a loud thump and found me passed out on my bedroom floor. 

Honestly though, I think that's probably how I learned best. Puttin' myself to sleep in front of mirrors. Later smartened up a little bit and messed around with, like, rats and stuff 'til my shaky kid-self was brave enough to test it out on other monsters. Couldn't actually make 'em do anything, the rats I mean, 'cause ya know, animals and all, but still....

...Looking back, I was a pretty dumb kid."

Has your hypnosis ability not worked on someone? Can people avoid it?

"Ha. Yeah, my eyes ain't that strong. I've had plenty of folks way too pissed off or just plain mad to do a damn thing to. Angry folks I can tire out at least, but mad folks are just too far gone to reason with.

And there's plenty of others I just can't butter up. Just at all. They ain't into messin' around, I guess. Really serious, cold types, basically. Can't make 'em feel anything for me if they hardly ever feel in the first place, hehe.

And as long as people don't listen ta me, I guess that's one way of avoiding it? 'Harden yer heart' as they say. Or just... be blind, I guess. Oh, and sunglasses! Real stupid flaw, but it just... doesn't work if they have sunglasses on. Not to say it's particularly hard to take 'em off, geheh..."
