Ask a question to the user above you!

Posted 6 years, 1 month ago (Edited 6 months, 25 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.

This might be a silly question but i wonder what inspired your username i quite like it it’s short and sounds really cool it honestly kinda reminds me of latin names, if that’s too personal then what made you join toyhouse? 

v yes i have!! I actually watched it in 4th grade as a movie cause we read the book version and holy crap that movie kinda was traumatizing for young me 😭 just the boat section of that movie also i really liked steven universe when it first aired on CN or regular show 

BewareOfTheMenace

Forestflight Okay you ask me if I watch Wonka before so I'll ask you: have you watch the original 1971 version with Gene Wilder on it?

Oh and what's your favorite Cartoon Network shows since you said my art looks like nostalgic CN cartoons

v I do think of making a webcomic but I had no idea how webcomic works so no, for now. However, I do already make a comic in my sketchbook but I haven't uploaded it on Toyhou.se just yet. So it's a maybe.

For ideas...it's a same as before: slice of life but I got other ideas if you wanna hear that isn't slice of life.

Have you ever considered creating a webcomic? Your art style has that webcomic energy to it you know. If you have, what are your ideas for your story?

I see that you've read Gachiakuta! What other manga that you've read and enjoyed? And any other favorite characters outside of Rudo?

⬇️ Ooh, my list of interests include my favorite pairings, manga series, manhwa series and then chinese webnovels! A lot of them definitely have influenced my creative creations in one way or another - Dungeon Meshi, for one, really inspired me to expand on my character designs! I'm hyperfixating a lot on Shanti right now, for sure hahaa. I even got several art commissions in progress for him, he's my number one spoiled babygirl at the moment (〃゚3゚〃)♡

ZaraTM Tell me a bit about your interests? You don't specify what kind of media they are, and I'm curious. Has any one of them had a significant impact on the way you write, the way you draw? And who do you consider your favorite character to be? (Your own, but can be from existing media.)

v I love Coach. He and Nick equally, I think they're pretty fun together and consider them both favorites.

BewareOfTheMenace

I didn't know you played L4D2. What's your favorite character too? Mine is Coach because bro just thinking about food than dying in a zombie apocalypse.

V I'll just sent you a DM because it's a long list.

Tabestboy

BewareOfTheMenace i read a bit of your profile and saw you liked a lot of music, who are your favorite artists? and what songs do you like from them? :) 

V wahh!!! shes 12 years old, not super a grandma but shes had a ton of litters in her life before she got spayed (so technically a greatx12 grandma probably lol...) a shorthair and a tabby-calico!! :) heres a few pictures of her 1 , 2

I love Miku! I love all her voicebanks but it really scratches my brain when she has a more robotic sound!!! I also enjoy her design as basic as it may be! I would also say i like meiko but not to the degree I like miku! Idk how to explain but miku means a lot to me and i enjoy all media wirh her in it idk jajaja


BewareOfTheMenace

615 I dunno if someone ask you this before but what's your favorite Vocaloid singer and why?

V

1. It's from Aqua Teen Hunger Force, one of Adult Swim's earliest show when the program first aired in 2001. I screenshot it from a episode called "The Clowning). Go to YouTube and search "Athf coat rack", then watch the video.

2. My mom. She loves Weezer and I got into it when I was young.

3. Nah, I don't care much about their ship. However, their dynamic is hilarious to the point that the whole show felt like a sitcom in a hospital.

MezzoMadness

BewareOfTheMenace What's the story behind your pfp? How did you get into Weezer? Thoughts on Hilson (House x Wilson)? In response to the below, I'm new to Toyhouse. I really like the website! I was intimidated at first, but I'm really enjoying it, and there are so many skilled, creative people on this platform
