Thank you everyone for your responses so far! I'm enjoying reading them! I'm about to go to work in a bit, but I'll try to get more owed questions out there soon, if not by lunchtime. (If it's slow enough I'll type them up at work, heheheh.) I realize that I'm going out of order with this question ping, but I was super inspired and eager to talk about my own kids hahaha. I promise everyone before Caine will still get questions!
Caine
It's so sweet of you to ask ;__; I'll ask you about Paris and then I'll go into my own answers, hehe.
Questions about the form he was given after death: Why did it displease him--was he just tired of being human? Why the kaleidoscope eyes as the god's signature--any kind of symbolism there, or did it just look neat to you? When he visited his friend from when he was alive, did his friend recognize him at all? Or was he too different, and had to convince his buddy that it was him? Did he have any specific thoughts or feelings when he was executed? Was he surprised to be "recreated" in the afterlife, or had he expected there to be something after death?
As for MY answers....
Deutoria is a land on the other side of the world of Equestria. It used to be similarly bright and cheery and full of singing ponies, and the citizens of both lands traded goods and travelled freely between each land. Then, rather suddenly, Deutoria just disappeared. In its place was a desolate wasteland, incapable of supporting any life. Equestrian ponies wrapped it up as an "old mare's tale" and put it on the shelf as if it had never truly been. Even the princesses of the sun and moon forgot Deutoria, and no longer shed light on it. Meanwhile, Deutorian ponies were struggling, the majority of them kept in Sunslammer's citadel and made to work jobs that went against the cutie marks. A few small factions of ponies stil existed outside of the citadel, but if Sunslammer were to find them, they would be captured as well. Eventually, Dawnbright would defeat her mother Sunslammer, and restore life to the world of Deutoria once more.
Thank you for asking about Dejan too aaaah! Horseback riding started out as something he did for a tv show or movie. He proved to be somewhat of a natural at it, and actually really enjoyed it, even while he was starting to dread acting. When he begged to have his own horse and promised it wouldn't detract from his acting job, and that he would use his horseback riding skills in future jobs, his parents relented and allowed him to ride at a nearby stable as he pleased, so long as he performed well. He misses his stable horse terribly, and wishes he could go back to visit her, but knows she's in good hands at the stable. The horse he rides at the stable near his new home is a little bit more persnickety, but he likes that about her.
His favorite Spyro game is Year of the Dragon, because of all the cool minigame worlds/areas, but he likes the original trilogy a lot. In order, his faves go: YotD, Ripto's Rage, Spyro, The Legend of Spyro, and then Enter the Dragonfly is in dead last, as something that had great potential but ultimately sucked. He still has all the games, and a working PS2 that he plays them on. He also does have the Reignited Trilogy on PS4! He LOVES it. Dejan is the type to enjoy all parts of something that he loves*. (Enter the Dragonfly being an exception, of course.) He thinks the remastered trilogy is so fun, it's a great gameplay experience and a nice nostalgia trip for him and HP to enjoy together.
*(On this note of enjoying all parts of something, Dejan can't fathom why HP would like Cats the musical and not Cats the musical movie. They're both Cats, right? They both sing and dance and look silly! He's the type to get so into a series of something, he'll even watch the seasons and episodes that everyone declares worthless, because it's part of what he likes. If he was into Haruhi Suzumiya, he would watch all of Endless Eight, because "it's part of the show" and "I might miss something.")
