meme: answer for an answer

We haven't done this one since September and I have been trying to post a meme for days so I'm finally decided on this one. YOU ALL BETTER LIKE IT.

Tag your character in. Other characters will then comment asking them embarrassingly personal questions, but there's a catch. In exchange for your answer, they have to answer whatever embarrassingly personal question you ask them in return, and it all has to be truthful. Nothing counts IG, per usual.

Questions can range from the super silly to the super serious! Just have fun!


Here's an example if you wanna take a looksie! If you ping your character in, please TRY and ask at least a few questions to other people! This meme doesn't work if people don't ask questions! And keep checking back throughout the day for others that have pinged in!

What's it gonna take to lighten you up some?

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Convincing me it's something worthwhile to attempt.

Do you always get so strident in listing the faults of others?

[identity profile] fratboybitch.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Most of the time, yep. Most people I meet, I do the same thing to because I can. It's a thing.

Why didn't you kick me out?

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Because it amused me and you had little issue with my own approach to things.

'Most of the people'? What sort of people are the exceptions to your manner?

[identity profile] fratboybitch.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:56 pm (UTC)(link)
I haven't found anyone yet but there's always exceptions to rules, aren't there? I thought that was the reason that little turn of phrase existed.

Would you prefer I be some nice guy from now on?

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 07:01 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd rather you were yourself. Warts and all.

Should I play the nice girl around you?

[identity profile] fratboybitch.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 07:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Ugh, please don't. You're much more interesting as you are and I like a challenge.

Why do you think you and Elena ended up such opposites?

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Because I kept dreaming and she gave up in regards to obtaining our father's approval.

Why do you find logic and love to be incompatible?

[identity profile] boho-to-be.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't suppose they're completely incompatible, but the people I've known who have been very logical have tended to dismiss the importance of love in the world.

So you think they can fit together?

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 07:00 pm (UTC)(link)
I do. There is nothing unimportant about love or logic in my eyes.

Do you think loves comes fastest to those who look for it?

[identity profile] boho-to-be.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
It must not. If it did, I would have been in love by now.

[identity profile] need-no-moon.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, so what's winning? Being annoyed or amused?

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Amused. By the tiniest of leads.

Why do you persist in playing this game you've made of talking to me?

[identity profile] need-no-moon.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Because I'm glutton for punishment? Because it's amusing? Because I'm curious what's going to make you crack and laugh, no one can be serious all the time. And if you think you can, then it's about time you changed your mind.

Do you mind?

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:48 pm (UTC)(link)
I do not particularly understand it but: do as you wish. I promise no results but I do not entirely mind. If it gets to be too much, you will know.

What is the reasoning behind your distaste of leadership?

[identity profile] need-no-moon.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 06:55 pm (UTC)(link)
When I became a werewolf, anything I wanted was taken from me. I wasn't even allowed to hang out with my friends because I could be a danger to them. They took away my choice and then wanted me to step up and become alpha. Because I'm the chief's son and my grandfather was alpha, so it's my right to be too.

Being alpha means that basically I can boss the other wolves around and they've got no choice but to listen to me. I'd get to take that last free will from them. No thanks.

So are you ever going to explain why you're all pale looking and walking at snail's pace?

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-20 07:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Perhaps if you ask outright. Otherwise I will determinedly ignore your interest in that subject.

Is there anything you consider good about being a werewolf?

[identity profile] findingelena.livejournal.com 2010-05-21 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
Are you ... I don't know. Disappointed? Did I turn out at all like you were expecting? Will your answers to that change if you hear what I've been getting up to?

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-21 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
I might be, at first. Particularly if I hear no reason for any of it. At the moment... you appear to have grown up well, Elena. Well done.

Are you happy I am here?

[identity profile] findingelena.livejournal.com 2010-05-21 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
I haven't, really. I'm the still scared little girl who's trying too hard. I just cover better.

I ... am. I'm stressed out because of it, I'm worried sick, and I'm scared about what will happen, but I fucking missed you, even if I have no right to say that, and even if I shouldn't let on how much.

Do you think I should find out what happened to Dad?

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-21 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
I think, for closure, that you should. However poor your relationship with Dad... knowing if he survived is important, I believe. No one is saying you'd have to do more than that.

Why do you have no right to say you missed me?

[identity profile] findingelena.livejournal.com 2010-05-21 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
I think ... if I knew he was gone, I would mourn him, and if I didn't know, I'd feel obligated to at least try talking to him. But so long as I don't know, somehow, I can convince myself I don't need to do either.

So much for maturity.

Because it's my fault. And because I can't just come right out and tell you what's going on, and I acted horribly to you for years, so ... I should just get over it, but I'm not any good at that.

Did you ... miss me, after you moved out, to join the Turks?

(Dear LJ: I will cut you like the bitch you are if you do not start giving me notifications.)

[identity profile] give-areason.livejournal.com 2010-05-21 11:09 pm (UTC)(link)
If you have something to tell me, I will do my best to listen. Yes, I know my best is not often good enough in regards to you, but--I would try.

Miss you? I--Elena, you were my life for years. It was both freedom and a hole in my world to be away from you at first. Time taught me how to handle it and the distance between us only made it easier to stay away than to press on in face of not... knowing how you'd react if I did visit.

But yes, I missed you. A great deal.

How often did you doubt my love for you?
