Meme: Questions!

[rebelseekspizza]

So I think last time I did this one was actually the day before my first interview for my current job. Go figure. ANYHOW. Meme!

Pose a question (or as many as you'd like, and they don't
all have to be in one comment, so you can come back later
and add more if you want) to your fellow students,
teachers, townies, alumni and expatriates, and they will
answer them. These are IC questions and IC answers and
should be truthful! They can be personal or silly. You don't
have to answer all of them! Nothing counts in game, of
course and etc.

So, for example, I'd ping in with a question like 'Are you in
love? If so, with who? If not, why not?' And people ping in
under me and answer that question. There's no latesies on
this, because of the format, so people can ping in at their
leisure. And ANYONE can ask questions!

So what's up with you these days?

[rebelseekspizza]

How's the lovelife doing?

[rebelseekspizza]

Anything you're really worried about?

[rebelseekspizza]

What's been your favorite Fandom weird these past few months?

[geniuswithasmartphone]

Anyone have any New Year's resolutions? Think you're gonna keep it?

[rebelseekspizza]

One thing you'd like to say to someone right now.

[rebelseekspizza]

Someone you're having mixed feelings about right now?

[geniuswithasmartphone]

Anything coming up that you're excited for?

[rebelseekspizza]

If you could work any job you wanted, what job would you pick?

[geniuswithasmartphone]

If you had to be trapped on a deserted island with somebody from Fandom, who would it be and why?

[myownface]

What about the long term? Have any big life goals you're aiming toward?

[rebelseekspizza]

Drink more, get laid more, suffer horrible trauma less?

Kinda failing already.

[rebelseekspizza]

Anders, probably. Wouldn't be bored, and it's always handy to have a healer ready, right?

[rebelseekspizza]

I'm totally and happily big life goal-free. Fuck that shit.

[myownface]

Oh my god I'm a teacher.

I have no idea what I was thinking and I have students and they ask me questions about things and either trust that I have the answer or make my brain explode. Wednesday evenings are now drinking evenings.

Plus I think I need, like, someone to talk to about how messed in the head I've been lately. Just, someone who isn't necessarily a serial killer, because that shit isn't fucking normal.

[myownface]

Comfortable? I mean, Leto and I are happy, and I'm cool with the holding pattern. I'm totally welcome to look around or sleep around or whatever, and that I haven't been isn't really a statement about our relationship - which is super open - so much as it's a statement about where my head has been in general, lately.

Anyway, I don't think there are many guys left on the island who are into, you know, into other guys? I could be wrong. Maybe they're all students. I should have stayed out of teaching. Dammit.

[myownface]

I am losing my mind.

In little tiny pieces.

Not the same way they were in that other Fandom, this is less obvious than suddenly just not remembering things. I'm just afraid that pieces of me are bleeding out every time something shitty happens, and I'm not completely certain what's taking their places. I don't think it's something stronger than what I lost. It sure doesn't feel like it.

[myownface]

Fuck you. Fuck you so hard. I wouldn't be here right now if you'd had our backs the way you said you did. I wouldn't be here right now if you knew when the hell to keep your mouth shut. I'd be back home - as close to a home as anything has ever been - and maybe I wouldn't be wishing so hard that you'd been in the house when we burned it the hell down.

Maybe I'd feel like I actually fit, somewhere.

[myownface]

Nah. I mean, not really, no. Spring break? When is that? That's probably not for months yet, is it?

I'm so super exciting.

[era_two_triangle]

I still don't much understand what the appeal is in singing, here. But getting to perform celebratory seasonal musical arrangements with my gremlin minions was enjoyable.

... That was Fandom weird, right? Maybe it was just the gremlins.

[era_two_triangle]

I've never been asked that before.

I've never been asked that before. And I don't know the answer yet, and that's okay! It's okay if I don't know where to go from here! Maybe I'll continue to invent things, or maybe I'll pick a direction to go, farming or something of the like, and I'll apply my talents as a technician toward that!

What do I want to do?

I... I don't know. And that's okay?

[era_two_triangle]

Rufus or Jalian, I suppose. They seem competent.

[shiroi_tiger]

I'm here with no simple way of getting back home. She's in Japan over a century ago. I don't think 'long distance' really quite covers it.

[shiroi_tiger]

Mostly just how long I'll be stuck here this time.

[uncertain_dume]

I've started openly wearing my lightsaber. In two mostly unrecognizable pieces on my belt, granted, but I'm wearing it. That's terrifying in ways I don't care to admit, and mostly I find myself reminding myself that people around here both don't care, and are more likely to notice the blaster at my hip, first.

It's a work in progress, I suppose. It's more than I'd ever figured I'd do.
