You could ask a relationship question in one of the other Q&A threads, but I thought a thread specifically for relationship questions would be fun, and good for developing character relationships!
In this thread, ask a question to the character a person posted above you in the thread, about a relationship in their life. You'll post IC as a character you would like to be asked about, and edit your post with your character's answer after the person below you asks them a question!
- The relationships in this thread don't have to be romantic! You could ask about a character's relationship with their sibling, their parents, their child, their dog, their rival, their boss, their worshippers-- you get the idea!
- If you want the person below to ask about a particular relationship (or give specific options, like either their brother or their best friend), you can specify at the bottom of your post; otherwise, people will ask you about a relationship that's listed on the character's profile. If you don't specify and no relationships are listed, you'll probably get a vague and potentially unfitting question like what their relationship with their mom is, so I recommend having at least one relationship listed somewhere.
- Questions can be anything: how the characters met, their favorite thing about the other character, silly nicknames, the worst fight they ever had, their favorite memory together, their plans for the future-- anything about a relationship the character has. Try to ask an interesting or thoughtful question!
- That said-- this is NOT intended to be a low-effort thread. You are expected to look at the profiles of each character you are asking about (at least whatever section describes their relationship or history together), and try to think of a relevant question to their relationship. The only exception is if there really is nothing on the characters' pages to base your question on.
- This is not a NSFW thread. Questions and answers can be a little bit racy, but nothing above PG-13. There are other threads for adult questions.
- This is generally an IC thread, but you can answer OOC if you want to or if you need to say something that the character wouldn't.
- Claim first if you need time to read the character's profile. Please ping the person above you so you make sure that they see your response! If you're not sure how to do this, you simply type @THEIRUSERNAME, and they will be notified! This will not work if you edit the ping into your comment later (like if you wanted to claim and then edit your question in); you must put it in when you first submit the comment.
- You are NOT ALLOWED to skip anyone in this thread. If you cannot see the post above you because the poster or you have blocked each other, wait for another person to comment before replying to the thread. Feel free to bump the thread to encourage others to participate!
- Wait at least a couple of posts before going again.
- You can bump the thread as often as you like; I don't mind.
- BE NICE and have fun!

"It must have been really great to reunite with your daughter, I can only imagine, but you only saw her as a child once as a newborn. Was catching up awkward or did it come naturally? Also, how was meeting her husband and her kids?"
"Oh, her? You must be mistaken, she's been gone for awhile now. My only surviving example of the model i was trying to perfect and she just upped and left. I should've seen this coming, really, my security around my lab hasn't been that tight lately, and there was the fact that I tried to "deactivate" her after she naturally refused to carry out my goals. Really, I should be celebrated for what I'm doing for this place, for everyone! I'm the one who's going to wipe that stupid grin off of that stupid computer's face once and for all! But no, everytime I try to help us people are all like 'Noo Adam! I don't want to be kidnapped and turned into a killing machine!'' and 'I don't wan't to die!' everyone is so ungrateful. They deserve living in this boring monotonous place.
But I don't, and I'm gonna do something about that."
Tell me a bit about you and Ossie. What have you tried doing with her, and how has she taken it? I'm assuming she's a willing participant or she'd have left you, but how much does she really know about your motives and the things you want from her?
"Wow, uh...well, it's pretty cool that you got to meet someone you really love! Even if they're, y'know, dead...but, do you think you have a favorite memory of him? One that you know you can always hold on to?"

"Honestly, you'd think the stake thing would, but no, it doesn't. I mean, it's not like I even got to use it when I confronted Cedrick with it--he had incapacitated me before I had a chance to stab him, and then Jeremiah and Temperance came in, and...well. We explained the whole thing to Charlotte and Alabaster, and they didn't mind too much--he was trying to hurt me, after all. Anyway, I don't have any real reason to use a stake on anyone, so they don't have to worry.
Charlotte and the others didn't really know about Cedrick because, well, they don't go to our school! But when he was still around, Jeremiah and I decided to keep it to ourselves, simply because we didn't want Charlotte to get worried. Because believe me, she would worry, and I'm human so it would be even worse! So no, I guess no one but us knew, except maybe Temperance. But she found out on her own."
Has her carrying around a stake impacted any of her relationships with her host family? If they're not aware of it, would it? (Do they know about Cedrick or is she keeping them in the dark in an attempt to protect them?)

"No. Or- It's complicated. I certainly didn't when we first started..." He makes a confused gesture with his hand and avoids eye contact while trying to come up with the right description. "...Seeing each other. It's not that I have anything against him personally, I just...swore off romance a long time ago. I'm not any good at it and even if it's appealing in the moment I know it'll only end horribly."
"I keep finding out he's close to many of the people I am close too, though, and it's harder to keep his presence in my life compartmentalized to lonely mistakes." He sighs. "I don't know."
"I see that you obviously know someone named N. I'm curious, what are your current feelings about him right now?"

“Well... it’s somewhat complicated. We ended realizing that we weren’t that different. I mean, we’re still really different, but anyways, I guess our feelings for each other kinda went up from there?”
Bekeh wrote on a piece of paper to 'talk',"How did you start to get along with enemy, then got close and to be in love? How did that work?" She was asking about Aricia.

"??" Bekeh thought for a moment, then wrote down on a notepad.
"Grace was really excitable! She talk about peace and making sure no one gets hurt, but I saw her draw on walls she should not have. Feeling in love was slow, but I know what love feels like. When Grace was old enough, I asked! She said yes! She's very nice!" On the notepad were also little hearts and cute anime looking faces as she was writing.
"So do you prefer living with your mother or with your father? I guess it'd be the latter since you chose to stay with him, but did you dislike living with your mother? Sorry if that's too personal! I'd understand if you maybe didn't wanna talk about that~"
Ask about Essa or Phran! No restrictions otherwise!
How did she and Phran meet/become adventuring partners? Do they intend for it to be a permanent partnership or is it just short term convenience? Do they like living together?

"Not sure how he specifically found me but basically he needed somebody with no other obligations to stake out some rival or whatever and I'll do anything for a price." He scratches at a dried-up stain on his sweater. "At first we didn't talk about anything but business, and I didn't wanna fuck up a good source of income by changing that. But he found out I had a kid and got kinda weird about checking up on us. Weird for a guy who makes a living on murder and spy shit, anyway."
"Now that we live together we have to talk more, so we get onto a lot of subjects, but it's mostly just living-together shit like what to get for dinner or whatever, He likes to harass me about not being clean enough, or not keeping the brat clean enough. We talk about the brat."
How did you meet Maurice? And what sort of things do you talk about, aside from your homelands?
Shiro's face lights up. She writes for a couple minutes before handing her answer to the person in front of her. "That one is easy! I think my favorite memory is the time we went out and had pizza together and had a sleepover. It was when Note let me call her by her real name instead of her nickname, and the first time I'd had someone I met after the accident call me their friend. I didn't think she liked me all that much until she said I was a close enough friend of that."
