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!

"A photographer in the world of Graffiti? You're probably a graffiti artist yourself. But out of SAINT and ESCAPE, which one do you favor more? I'm not meaning their personality or character - I'm saying their type or art work and their style overall. Surely you have some aesthetic that you favor the most."

"Uh," he wasn't sure how to react towards this fellow before him. He looked to the side, his hand rubbing his neck. "That man has guts but he's only a dog to me. I'd like to tease him here and there just to piss him off. Otherwise, the guy's necessarily not even a real threat. I find him fun to be with, but Taka thinks otherwise. An unfortunate relationship, but I can't help but be better than him in every way possible."

Buddy Dohmalore

"Frenemiiieeesssss,"  Buddy says, dragging it out as long as possible before breaking it off with a laugh.  "How does that even happen?  What's with you and that Nobutaka guy~?"

---

Buddy's mood plummets at the reminder of what he did to Phoebe.  He scrapes his boot across the ground and hunches his shoulders, looking everywhere but at his questioner.  Truthfully he's never thought about killing his mother.  He's not a violent person; that he abandoned Phoebe to potentially die in the desert was entirely dependent on her being a dumb kid who trusted him not to hurt her.  In the end he couldn't even go through with what had to be the most cowardly method of murder possible and went back out to bring her home within 2 hours.  His mother wouldn't follow him into the next room, much less trust him to lead her anywhere she had no way of navigating.  

"I dunno...things seem the same as ever...I don't really see her much anyways."  And while it doesn't stop him from fantasizing about having a picnic at the park or just sitting around the coffee table coloring like he's seen her do with his sister, "She wouldn't be into doing one of those bonding things with me."

Has Marcia accepted that Tadla is probably long-gone and they'll never cross paths again, or does she still hope to find her one day?

"I dunno if the ghosts can interfere with it if they're the whole reason we started hanging out to begin with?"  He shrugs.  "Sometimes they do attack, though!  They don't really like being asked to leave her body.  It's a fun way to practice my magic though, having to fight them without actually maiming Kenny.  She's so fun to be around; if I knew people could be like that I would have tried making friends way sooner."

"Aside from Kenny shenanigans though, I do a lot of blogging."  He starts counting off hobbies on his fingers as he recites them.  "I study my magic, I work on my dolls, I go shopping.  Lots of stuff."

Montgomery GLITCH-DXCTOR

"With you and... Kenny, is it? Do the ghosts possessing her body ever interfere with your friendship, and have they tried to attack you? What sorts of things do you do for fun?"


"Mm, my partners... Ramona, my lovely tiger girlfriend, and Finch, a bird boy... Truth is, I met Finch two years after Ramona. Ramona, I met at voice tryouts for characters of an anime dub. We became fast friends, discussing things like the anime we watched, making soft pretzels, others that bothered us, pretty much anything you can imagine. A year later, she was auditioning for a particular movie I happened to take an interest in, and the way she moved onstage reminded me of an angel. I recognized then that I had feelings for her and asked her out. She wanted time to think it over, and the next week she accepted! We've been attached at the hip ever since." Montgomery let out a soft lovesick sigh, an unusual action for the generally anti-sappy cat. "Finch was just a coworker for a while... I'd seen him around, he assisted me with operations occasionally, but we never really started talking until I saw someone telling him off for misplacing the file. That hypocrite actually had misplaced a heart once, so I told him to shove off, and he did. Finch and I occasionally talked about random nerdy stuff, like Dungeons & Dragons, but most conversations surrounded work. He was almost as passionate about it as I was. At one point, during a heart transplant, I had to set aside the old heart, and as soon as I had finished with the operation it was gone. I just assumed someone was being kind and taking it 'elsewhere' for me, but immediately after, I noticed Finch standing in the corner, holding it to him. 'Say it,' he told me. 'Make the pun.' I asked him what pun, and he pointed to the heart, then at me. 'Fine... You stole my heart,' I told him, and he got the cutest, derpiest grin I'd ever seen. That afternoon, he asked Ramona if we could be in a polyamorous relationship, and she didn't have a problem with it at all. We've been excellent ever since..." He paused, looking up at the man. "Why do you ask, by the way? And what's with this interrogation? How did I get here?"

Frederick Waltz PicklePantry

"So," Frederick started, setting a clipboard of information down on the interrogation table that sat between him and Montgomery. "Tell me more about your intimate relationships. This... Romona and Finch. How did you meet them, and how did you get into a relationship with them?"


"We both kept to ourselves. She wasn't used to having someone around the house, and I wasn't ready to open up about the loss of my parents. Currently, I understand her awkwardness. This job is dangerous and could threaten people I hold close, so kids is absolutely out of the question. And to have one suddenly dumped on my doorstep, well, that would be interesting. If I could see her today, I'm not sure what I would ask. Mostly things about the Nightingale, tricks and secrets. Everything I've done I had to learn on my own, after all."

shakes bc i lowkey want to ask as carlotta abt cedric's past but LMFAOOOO

"Sometimes, are there people that you've met that makes you punch your worn, wrinkly face, gramps? Especifically on that teal cap boy, you seem to be so grumpy with him around, too much grump can lead to something strange. Yknow, stuff like saying baaaaka~ at some points."


"...She saved my life, and even for a bit, she put me in a land of milk and honey, even when we are all in such a delirious hell." He sighed as his fists hides in pockets, "Whether I meet her or not, I'll end up unfortunate. It's either I die without knowing everything, or be an immortal who will lose joy of everything as time passes. Everyone on the first place thought immortality is a good choice, though that was so wrong.

"With that, there are times I sometimes resent Miss Carlotta, but it's understandable as time passes. I owe her a lot, and she managed to let me know what I was capable of, even I have to live a monster my whole life. The best way I could repay her is erase her mistakes in her place, even if if will take me a whole eternity."

 Driz Dew GalaxieAuLait

@wanco-alien

"Not to disrespect you or Miss Carlotta, why are you able to forgive her so easily? Sure, she gave you a life, but is that really enough to offset all else she did entirely?"


"Ah, hmm... What I think my father is and what I wish he is are two very different things. What I think he is, is probably a scoundrel who hooked up with my mom and then left her in the dust. She always said he was coming back, but after a few years I sorta pieced together that he wanted nothing to do with her. What hurts most about that is that mom was so convinced that he'd be back that she never went and looked for someone who would love her and treat her better up until she died, so he must've been really nice, before he, y'know, threw her to the dogs and went to have fun without even giving her a second thought. But if I had to say what I'd want my dad would've been, I feel that's a little obvious. Someone who my mom would've loved that wouldn't use her and lose her. Someone faithful who would work as a team to make an actual family." Driz sighs, but quickly regains composition. "Thanks for giving me the chance to be openly angry, I didn't get a lot of times like that. I'm so used to bottling it up because mom would hate it when I 'talked bad' about my father, even though it seems like such an obvious truth. But as for your question about Morning, what surprises me a lot is that she doesn't resent her version of our father, but she won't say why. I'm also a little surprised that she didn't follow one of either of the big paths I took, she's neither an astronaut or a pharmacist, but a magician like our mom. She's very vague about her reasoning for it, I wish she'd tell me what she knew. I'm not too jealous of her, but rather the circumstances she had in her world where her version of mom died half an hour later. I wasn't able to say goodbye to my version because of traffic, but Morning got to say goodbye to her version. It's not really fair, but I try not to think about it or get too mad that she had that opportunity I missed."

Ooc: So even though Aquila is not a good person, his kingdom was prosperous under his reign. So how did his subjects feel about him?

-----------------

Yes! Actually, Mikhail's story (his official one) starts off with him about five years after being in the hospital meeting Kieran by chance again when he applies to be a nanny. Kieran gives him the job without telling him that he recognizes him (Mikhail assumes he's forgotten). Eventually, they strike up a romance, but that dies down after they realize that they are incompatible in some important ways. :( Mikhail ends up moving away after about a year of being a nanny, but they still talk sometimes. And fuck if Kieran's single

Ezra Dohmalore

His profile mentions they built a friendship; Is Mikhail still in contact with Kieran?

"My followers come to me, when they hear tell of my greatness."  Ezra cocks their head up, "Beacon is no different, in that regard.  Does being the first to acknowledge that I am a being worthy of worship not garner favoritism?  Of course he is special to me."

Alcott Northwind PicklePantry

"So how'd you meet your first follower, Beacon? Did he approach you? You ran into him? Is he your favorite among all your followers?"


Alcott avoided eye contact as he rubbed the back of his neck, not used to gushing about his love life. "After my divorce, I moved into my old summer home with my son. Arson happened to be our neighbor," he started slowly. "We spent a lot of time together because our kids were friends, and we had a lot in common. Eventually, I don't know, I got interested in him. He's the first person that's ever treated me... normal. Something other than an exotic pet or... what I used to be."
