It's memeday!

[firecracker_hopping]

Hello, friends! It's meme day. We have a simple QUESTIONS meme today. This is an OOC one. The rrrrrrrrules (look, I watched Panty and Stocking today) are:

1) Tag in with your character(s?)!
2) Reply to someone else's tag and ask them a QUESTION about their character.
3) When you answer a question posed to you, you have to ask them a question in turn!

Ask me about anything but the Ahura!

[reference_section]

Does Harriet ever wonder if friends she made after she got the godbrain wouldn't be her pals otherwise?

[suddenly_science]

She does suspect it, but doesn't see it as a horrible thing. She considered herself unlikeable before she got the godbrain and was more hurt by LeiLei disliking her new and improved personality than she was by Lera warming up to her only after she'd changed.

What does Tyrus think will happen when he's found out?

[reference_section]

Tyrus thinks that everyone will turn on him. He sort of accepts this, because he has internalized that he is basically a bad person who wants to be a good person. He figures they'll hate him and he deserves it.

But he'll make the world a better place and they'll see that, some day.

He hasn't actually considered trying to calmly explain to Travis's friends what he did, why he did it, or that he's sorry. He doesn't have much faith in himself (or them, really) in that regard.

Did Harriet suspect at all before she left to Zen?

[suddenly_science]

Nope, not at all.

Of the various references Tyrus compulsively made and then wound up looking up, which movie/show/etc turned out to be his favorite?

[reference_section]

Tyrus really, really liked the gangster movies. He thought those were fun and spoke to him a lot. He's got a pretty old school aesthetic, though.

Does Harriet like the idea of holding court, getting fancy outfits, and generally getting to be treated like royalty?

[suddenly_science]

Yes, she does! She always liked DRAMATIC clothing as a student, even when it was goofy and didn't make sense to wear to school. So getting to put on fancy fantasy garb is fun. THIS ISN'T COSPLAY IS IT?

Holding court is too Real and makes her nervous though. DID SHE JUST DESTROY LIVES.

So about that there Ahura

Has Harriet given much thought to the idea of resurrection potions? Is that a project she thinks might continue, or would she prefer to not go near something of that nature?

[suddenly_science]

Right now Harriet's alchemical research usually stems from either treating it as "play" and creating something fun and silly, or solving an immediate problem. So although she wouldn't be squicked out by the idea of researching resurrection, she'd really have to have it spun as "urgent" somehow, either by realizing shortcomings of clerical resurrection, or seeing some way that alchemy could improve on, expand, or complement it.

Given a long long life ahead, would Rhys ever consider learning an instrument that didn't require his voice?

[brokencrescendo]

Rhys already knows how to play a piano, but he hasn't had access to one since he broke into FCU's music room to play. :3c If he saw one now, he'd probably sit down for fun and fiddle around until it came back to him. It would feel much less like grasping at straws to a past life this time around, but I think the bittersweet feelings would linger.

He still likes music though, and has had a few instances of goofing off with warhorns. They aren't the best for music, and it hurts his throat to use them for prolonged periods. (Which is okay in battle and awkward for recreation.) Sadly, he would favor the idea of woodwinds and the way they feel as a voice replacement the most. Maybe he'll someday try to find a way around that, or get determined enough to put up with it.

Speaking of which, how's Harriet's ukulele going?

[suddenly_science]

GLORIOUSLY

would Rhys appreciate a ukulele concert

[brokencrescendo]

Yes of course

Does the Sharifa's palace have some kind of alchemist piano in it he can find when he thinks no one is looking

[suddenly_science]

I think that could be arranged

are we going to have a phantom of the opera moment?

except he's got the... looks but no voice...

[brokencrescendo]

akfjlasa

We could have one such moment.

Just don't tell him about the comparison or he'll find some way to be a dork about it.

[suddenly_science]

I don't actually know in what way it would be a Phantom moment except that she'd be coming up behind him catching him playing

unless we could somehow contrive him to be wearing a mask

...

can Harriet throw a masquerade? sharifas can do that right

[firecracker_hopping]

Lera supports masquerades.

[suddenly_science]

I GUESS A PLAYER THROWING A MASQUERADE WOULD BE IN POOR TASTE...

[brokencrescendo]

BUT

BUT MASQUERADES

You can justify this with uuh I don't know, the war ended so everyone come and dress up and get to know each other without guilds and world boundaries getting in the way.

I just want one

[suddenly_science]

:3 I'm willing to do this

It could even happen but get criticized by some folks and be her first political faux pas
