Ask a question to the user above you!

Posted 5 years, 11 months ago (Edited 5 months, 14 days ago) by hedgemaze

We have lots of threads to ask questions to or about characters, but what about the users? In the vein of the Say something to the TH user above you! thread and the I want to see a TH user who... thread (and serving basically as a non-anonymous CuriousCat), this is a thread to help you get to know your fellow TH users better by asking the person above you a question. In return, the person below you will pose a question to you. After you're asked a question, edit your post with your answer! 

If you're uncomfortable or don't want to answer the question you were given for any reason, just say so and leave a fun fact about yourself so the game still serves its purpose. If a question is truly problematic, message me with any concerns.

Rules:

  • Don't ask questions that are very personal or could be uncomfortable, and bear in mind that many TH users are minors, so while I encourage you to look at the profile of the user above you and ask about something mentioned if you like (like their pets, their hobbies, or their current project), please don't ask very personal questions like exactly where someone lives.
  • Try to ask something fun or interesting, but it's fine if you don't know the person above you at all-- getting to know each other better is the point of this thread! It's fine to ask something general like what their hobbies are, who their favorite fictional character is, how they came up with their username, which of their own characters is their favorite, or how they found ToyHouse.
  • Of course, it's great if you ask something more specific, too! If you know they have a lot of fandom characters, you might ask how they got into that fandom, or if they have a unique art style, you might ask how they developed it!
  • There's another thread for specific questions about characters, and another for worlds, but you can ask general/broader questions about a person's creations here, like how long they've been working on their story, or what inspires or influences them. I'm not going to keep writing examples, but you get the idea. Just use common sense and try to get to know your fellow TH users better!
  • You can ask multiple questions in your comment if you want to, but only one is fine, too. This can be as in-depth or as casual as you like.
  • Please ping the person above you so you make sure that they see your question! 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.
  • Edit your original comment with your answer to keep this clear; please DO NOT add new comments to the thread just to answer someone's question. This gets confusing. Take it to private messages if you want to have an ongoing conversation.
  • You can bump the thread as often as you like; I don't mind.
  • Be nice and have fun!   Please don't be rude if someone asks you a question you've already answered before! If that happens, you may link your previous response if you don't want to go over it again, but I recommend adding something new to say about the topic, if you can!
  • Want to play the game in reverse? Answer a question from the user above!

The first person can either ask me something or just claim a spot!


Edit: my answer

"Hedgemaze Expo" is the name of the main characters' band in my comic! I've been using either HedgemazeExpo or Hedgemaze as a username ever since, which is to say since 2003! Most people just call me Hej for short now.

The name itself doesn't mean much of anything, other than that I liked both words and liked the sort of paradoxical nature of an exposition dedicated to huge structures that can't be moved (what do they exhibit, photos? bush samples? tiny mazes?). In terms of the comic, it's just supposed to be a unique, kind of awkward, and silly band name, because in-story, it's an inside joke between my characters Jill and Amber.

So how did you come up with your webcomic story? What was the process and how long does it usually take to make a chapter?

---

Ahh that is a tough one, But I think if I had to pick ONE, it would have to be El Bandido de Goma. He is beyond special to me. 

For my favorite artwork I have gotten, might be this one of my witch and alchemist couple

And how I got into creative writing? Well I loved reading Goosebumps and Animorphs book as a kid, really got me wanting to write stories like these.

Yavervin

Shadowzim777 out of all your characters, tell me who's the favorite ot of the bunch, which of your characters artwork do you adore the most? And also, what got you into creative writing in the first place?


v Mostly started drinking coffee due to it's bitterness and not the caffeine rush itself, but later developed a love for (instant) black coffee specifically.

^ of course !! man, i hope it gets better. exhausting days suck so bad. i totally get that, though !! 


Tempo I see you have both your mbti and enneagram put in your profile :3 do you have any special stories of how you ended up getting into that / finding it out? is it more of a casual thing or something that interests you more? I know a lot of people take it super serious n lots don't, I'm curious to hear where you fall !!

(I ADORE ur art btw !?!?!? feels very homey)

v

yapped under the spoilers

rdr mentioned. as for rdr2 i honestly loved charles chatenay and albert mason (hamish will always have a place in my heart, i wish he had more missions) - but as for the gang .. sean, arthur, charles and trelawany were some of my favourites! i always looked forward to them being in missions:3 i started to appreciate dutch's character a lot later in the game, same with kirean .. sadly. but honestly ?? a lot of them i hold dearly. uncle was another fun one in missions, his dialogue was always AWESOME !

more notable characters: eagle flies, bronte, rain falls, abigail (i honestly love her and im really sad people make excuses for john and arthur as them being complex characters - which they are !! but never apply it to sadie or abigail ..) the sister .. i forgot her actual name. 

AND RDR1.. bear with me i need to replay.. i honestly rlly liked jack (high honor) - same with him as a kid (not as a teen . annoying ass.) another big favourite was javier - annnd another i really liked was bonnie even if i dont remember much of her. i dont really remember many of the strangers since it's been so long .. same w like everything in undead nightmare

BewareOfTheMenace

zombrif1c Besides John Marston, any fav RDR character? I have a lot but currently, mine would be Uncle.


V Alif Satar, Butterfingers, Bunkface, Mawi, Altimet, Joe Flizzow, Yuna, and many more.

MeowMeow422

TheMenace

Fav local musician? (unrelated, but ouh, your user is shorter now!)

SODAPUNKED

MeowMeow422 first character ever made?

⬇️ well, I had a few usernames back then when I was little, pretty much when the social media part sony Sketch was still up. The following were: galaxysprite/ Captain Luna/ pinkandbubblymallory/ currently I have SodaPunk or SodaPunked. Why? Because it just sounded nice.

VFoxes were the first to be made and were inspired by mlp (generation 4), they were originally called "Noseless foxes" and originated from a story little me made called "CatLand".

VRobots on the other hand also came from CatLand. But really got prevalent when I learned the existence of *insert drumroll* undertale's Mettaton. Which is where those face pads originated from.

PaxCeasesToExist

SODAPUNKED where does ur username come from! Also what inspired VRobots/Foxes if you don’t mind a second question XP


⬇️ pproobally July!! he is my most recent so he has that,, and I also did way too much research for his outfits so I’m pretty proud of how that turned out ,, I think he just looks nice overall as well!!!

Enderdragonvil

PaxCeasesToExist which design are the most proud of?

V Maybe hue shifting?? instead of just shifting the value you can also shift the hue to give it more life, i'm still learning about alot of the form of art aswell so there is a bunch to learn about it like dithering n stuff i just don't have a grasp on yet-

lezbtron

Enderdragonvil is there anything you struggled with or think others would struggle with when getting into pixel art?, 


v robots (2005) movie and transformers! and a bit of splatoon too actually!

A fandom that you're in, that doesn't seem like you'd be in it?? ((Idk how to word this properly do lmk if itz goofy lmao))

👇 BUH ME WHEN I GET TO THIS RLLY LAT EIM SO SORRY- I've actually heard of Arcane before watching the show, I just didn't know it'd be this good!! All credit goes to my younger brother, who opened it on our Netflix and said that we should watch it, thinking that I would like it. HE WAS SO RIGHT. As for the second part of your question, I would say there were multiple moments! One of those being in episode three when he and Jayce stabalize the Hex stone and are floating in the air.

Just look at him!! He is so cute,,, also his little lines and accent combined I just AGGGRHEHEGRAAAARRGG and also he is such a tragic character like what??????? Let me sweep him off his feet and kiss him!!!! It was honestly the realization of how sad he is that made me love him, then rewatching the show and seeing his lil momentz made me love him more!
