30. Who has had the most influence on you?
On the record? My dad. He likes to complain about me having a mouth, but where do you think I got it from? But off the record? Tyler. I never wanted to beat anyone at everything so badly, that almost every decision I made that involved my future was tainted by him in some way. The bitch.

93. What goal do you most want to accomplish in your lifetime?
I want to make a name for myself, leave my mark, put my two cents in and have it count. I want to go out with a bang.

67. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
~~no i'm bottom~~ If no one else is willing to do it, then fuck yeah why not. Someone's got to, right?

83. What are your pet peeves?
Tyler.

21. While growing up, how did you get along with the other members of your family?
I was the oldest of my generation, so I was practically everyone's older brother. Not the overbearing, overprotective time, nah, they had their parents for that. I was the cool one. I was the one who'd buy them beer if they asked real nice.

90. Name three things you consider yourself to be very good at, and three things you consider yourself to be very bad at.
Well I do have quite the way with words. That, along with my quick wit and grace under pressure, I'm practically invincible. As for the bad stuff... Tyler's not going to see this later, right? Fuck he better not. But, yeah, I guess I'm a little bad at handling certain, ah, delicate situations. And, okay, yeah so maybe I can act like a baby sometimes. And maybe, MAYBE I am a little too stubborn for my own good. Maybe.

100. If you could, what advice would you, the player, give to your character?
Mark, dear. Put. The fuck. Out.

43. What are your political views?
Oh don't even get me started. Well first of all there needs to be a severe upheaval by the time I graduate. Wipe them all out, replace them with newer, fresher ideas. I mean, seriously, guys. Legislature? Congress? Are you guys on repeat or something? If it didn't work the first time that means something.

34. Do you have a criminal record of any kind?
Well once I accidentally walked out of a Wal-Mart with lace panties in my pocket. My two year old nephew thought he'd be nice and give me a little present.

75. What is your idea of good entertainment (consider music, movies, art, etc.)?
Watching Tyler FAIL.

53. In general, how do you treat others (politely, rudely, by keeping them at a distance, etc.)? Does your treatment of them change depending on how well you know them, and if so, how?
It doesn't matter who they are (unless they're George), I'm friendly and lovely and all things good about people and I honestly don't know where people are coming up with this whole "intense" stuff why is that suddenly such a bad thing huh?

67. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
My mama says I'm a natural-born leader, and I sure as hell am not about to disagree with her, have you seen my mama?

37. If you could change one thing from your past, what would it be, and why?
I was born blond. Everyone's born blond. It's so Barbie.

21. While growing up, how did you get along with the other members of your family?
Oh I got along fine with all of them. Well, all of the ones that were around when I was, that is. I didn't get to see much of mama but she was busy, you know, having to watch the twins and things. Man the twins were everywhere. They got into my diary once, when I kept those things, and colored The Best Day of My Life (1)! At least they didn't chew up Mr. Bun like they chewed up Jeffrey's tonka truck though.

84. Describe the routine of a normal day for you. How do you feel when this routine is disrupted?
I get up, take a shower, brush my teeth go to class, get out of class, grab a sandwich by the sandwich bar of if I've got a few extra dollars on me I'll splurge at the sushi bar, go back to class, get out of class, break, go back to class, get out of class, go back to dorm, tell Mr. Bun about my day, ask him about his cuz that's being polite, eat some dinner at the dining hall, go back to dorm, think about Stuff, then go to sleep. I don't mind if some new stuff comes along. It keeps Mr. Bun from getting bored, you know.

62. Who would you turn to if you were in desperate need of help?
My mama, usually. But she's not here, so... Well, I don't know, I guess I just won't plan to be in desperate need of help anytime soon.

60. How close are you to your family?
Oh I love my family lots, all... twelve of them? I think it was twelve. Last time mama wrote she said twelve.

3. Who are/were your parents?
Yalonda says my birth mom and dad were a two-man acrobatic circus act, on account of how I can roll my tongue and touch my toes when I bend. I don't think they are, though, because then that mean I'd be a little bit taller, I think.

65. Who is the person you despise the most, and why?
George, because he said he wouldn't cry if I melted. And maybe George Foreman because the fat just drips right off and that's the best part!

23. As a child, what were your favorite activities?
I'd put on little shows for all my brothers and sisters and they had to watch, even if they didn't want to, but most of them wanted to because I'd reenact all their favorite bedtime stories or for the older ones I'd turn that night's CNN news into interpretive dance. I got a lot of encores.

11. What does your voice sound like?
To me? Deep and rumbly. I want to say like a pre-pubescent Mufasa from Lion King. I'm not sure how it sounds to other people, but no one's told me to shut up on account of a bad-sounding voice yet, so.

41. What is your greatest fear?
Not being forgiven. Especially over something I truly am remorseful about. I think I just hate to be on anyone's bad side at all. It's such a cold, hollowing feeling.

88. Are you generally introverted or extroverted?
I like to think I'm a little bit of both. I'm friendly, but I'm not about to stand up in the middle of a crowd just to get everyone's attention.

25. As a child, were you popular? Who were your friends, and what were they like?
I was king of the monkey bars, man. All the chicks dug me.

44. What are your views on sex?
Three isn't always company. Haha, on a more serious note, though, I don't really have much to say about it. If it happens it happens, and if it happens here's hoping it's good.

57. Do you have a spouse or significant other? If so, describe this person.
Oh man I wish Sebastian were here to hear this. I think he'd turn all sorts of red. Well that's his name right there, Sebastian. We haven't really discussed the nature of our "relationship" but we've been seeing each other pretty regularly and we're to be living together this summer, at least for a little while. He'll probably disagree, but he's pretty much perfect. Like a doll, really. Flawless, beautiful, fragile.

86. What is your greatest weakness?
I probably care what people think about me a little more than I should.

87. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
I guess I'd wish I didn't care so much about what everyone else thought.

98. What three words best describe your personality?
Easy-going, fun-loving, loyal. (I love these toot-your-own-horn questions.)

28. If you are a supernatural being (i.e. mage, werewolf, vampire), tell the story of how you became what you are or first learned of your own abilities. If you are just a normal human, describe any influences in your past that led you to do the things you do today.
I gotta say, I feel a little boring. Human, pffft. But, hell, I don't know. A lot of things had a hand in shaping me, but fuck me if I can pin point one right on the spot like this. Are we allowed to pass?

94. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
In Edward's arms, happy.

12. What words and/or phrases do you use very frequently?
I don't think there's anything I tend to repeat... Unless you count "Oh fuck--!" whenever Edward fucks me.

22. As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I honestly never really thought much about my future while I was growing up. I'd always been a little too caught up in the now. Especially since Edward came along, he was such a whirlwind that you couldn't stand still long enough to even think about the future.

87. If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
Edward says I'm perfect. Maybe, I'd wish I were just a little less perfect. Maybe that's what it'll take to be enough.

66. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict?
That.. depends. Oftentimes I'll argue, most especially if I know I'm right. But I have enough sense in me to know when I've lost.

81. How do you deal with stress?
I scream. Punch things, throw things. None of that Zen shit. If Edward's around I ask him to hold me, and that's usually the best remedy.

65. Who is the person you despise the most, and why?
Spencer. He gets to Edward like no one else does and.. that's just not allowed.

(since 94's on twice...)
47. Do you believe in the existence of soul mates and/or true love?
I try not to. It's a little easier that way.

16. What is your earliest memory?
I was three, and I got in trouble for picking up the ball of some senator's son. I ran crying to my dad, who only told me I should have known better.

69. Do you care what others think of you?
I care what Edward thinks of me.

5. Where do you live now, and with whom? Describe the place and the person/people.
I live in Stars-Fucking-Hollow aka Pierian Springs in some shitty, two-story, white-picket fence and flower garden deal where the sun shines way too fucking much. I live with my parents. He drinks a lot, she dopes up a lot. I'm practically living the American dream.

55. Who is the person you respect the most, and why?
Doesn't compute. Next.

38. What is your best memory?
Mom pulled me aside one day and said, "Hey guess what we're moving." (My worst memory would be the moment to follow quickly after that-- "to Pierian Springs.")

24. As a child, what kinds of personality traits did you display?
I was the fucking cutest child in the world, and I knew it too. My therapists said I was a brat. I think they're just bitter that I fired all their asses ~~after sleeping with them~~.

23. As a child, what were your favorite activities?
There's nothing like a smoke break after naptime.

23. As a child, what were your favorite activities?
The fuck? Are you stuttering or something?

100. If you could, what advice would you, the player, give to your character?
Shoot, keep doing what you're doing, bb, you're entertaining as hell. :D

8. To which social class do you belong?
The cream of the crop, babe. The cream of the fucking crop.

14. Do you have any quirks, strange mannerisms, annoying habits, or other defining characteristics?
I'm fucking charming as hell?

51. Is there anything you absolutely refuse to do under any circumstances? Why do you refuse to do it?
Hell, man, I'll try anything twice.

54. 54. Who is the most important person in your life, and why?
Oh, right at this very moment? I'll have to say my older sister. As much as she gets on my nerves, she's always been my best friend. She's always there with advice for me (whether I want them or not), and even if she's all the way in Boston I still make it a point to call her every other week to tell her how I'm doing. Whether she likes it or not.

92. 92. What are your reasons for being an adventurer (or doing the strange and heroic things that RPG characters do)? Are your real reasons for doing this different than the ones you tell people in public?
Well I would never actually call myself an adventurer, but.. I do enjoy a good challenge when the opportunity presents itself. I always tell me-- well, why not? But I suppose my real reasons are a touch more selfish. I've got a lot to prove, after all.

33. What is the most evil thing you have ever done?
Oh dear... Well. I don't think she's ever quite forgiven me yet but during a party back when I was in high school, I happened to make out with my friend's then-boyfriend. I don't quite remember the details, but it was apparently a very good make-out.

91. Do you like yourself?
Well I certainly don't dislike myself. Everyone's always striving to be better, and I'm certainly no exception. But I like to think I'm rather happy with myself. I certainly wouldn't change anything. ... Except maybe my height.

36. What is the most embarrassing thing ever to happen to you?
Must I really? I think I was.. a sophomore. At Lowood. I had a crush on an upperclassman and there was a moment in the cafeteria where I thought he'd been waving to me. Silly girl that I was made a big show of waving back, only to realize a few seconds later he was waving to the girl behind me and oh it was so horrible I spent the rest of the lunch break in the girl's bathroom.

93. What goal do you most want to accomplish in your lifetime?
I suppose I want to make a difference like my past self made a difference. Even if it's just helping someone else succeed, I think that'll be enough.

32. What is your greatest regret?
I was fourteen and a bunch of kids from school were having a get together. A few of use played spin the bottle, and when it was Davey Jefferson's turn I chickened out and said the bottle pointed as my friend Amber. They went out for two years.

75. What is your idea of good entertainment (consider music, movies, art, etc.)?
I'm a big movie geek. Anything from the classics to the really bad, really cheesy ones that always have a happy ending. A perfect Friday night for me is spent curled up in my couch with my favorite blanket and a pint of Ben and Jerry's, watching HBO.

6. What is your occupation?
I currently teach Women's Studies at Lowood. And sometimes I'll be required to track down certain literary apparitions with the intent of capturing and/or killing them. I could do with a raise, really.

51. Is there anything you absolutely refuse to do under any circumstances? Why do you refuse to do it?
Sing in front of people. I am horribly tone deaf and it's really all for the sake of those around me that I refuse.

55. Who is the person you respect the most, and why?
Ah shit. Fuck, I don't know. One of my sisters. Or all of them, I guess. They're all still annoying, don't get me wrong, but they're all doing their own thing and, I don't know, I mean, fuck, even Ana's doing something with her life and that's pretty sweet. They aren't going to see this right?

26. When and with whom was your first kiss?
Seventh grade, with Anita Giobli. She was in the grade above me and, according to her, I pissed her off enough to find a creative way to shut me up. She wanted me bad, man.

59. What do you look for in a potential lover?
The hell is it with all these personal questions? Fuck if I know. Someone who won't piss me off? Or make a big, fucking deal about every damned thing.

73. What is your favorite food?
Anything Mama or Masha makes. I'm actually not as picky as I make myself out to be, but man, Mama's got some serious skill in the kitchen and Masha's right up there. Guess Masha had to make up for Ana's severe lack of skill, ha.

37. If you could change one thing from your past, what would it be, and why?
Mm. Well there was one time, when I was like five or six or something... I don't really remember what set me off but man was I a bitch. Threw some massive tantrum and told each and every one of my family members that I hated them and, man, if you'd seen the look on my Mama's face... It was basically a really bad night in the Romanov household.

31. What do you consider your greatest achievement?
Well, fuck, I'm in college. Who would have thunk?

93. What goal do you most want to accomplish in your lifetime?
To be honest I never thought I'd get into college in the first place. It's not so bad, but fuck if I'm going to go for any masters or anything.

82. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?
I guess I'm more spontaneous. Plans bore the fuck out of me, and you only get disappointed when things don't work out. But at the same time it's annoying as hell when you have to constantly pull shit out of your ass all the time, you know?

11. What does your voice sound like?
Alex Romanov's.

39. What is your worst memory?
Refer to 37, bitch.

48. What do you believe makes a successful life?
Clarity. Maybe.

90. Name three things you consider yourself to be very good at, and three things you consider yourself to be very bad at.
I blend in. I keep quiet. I can disappear.
I'm not very good at conversations. I don't know how to be a regular teenager. Sometimes I just don't care.

62. Who would you turn to if you were in desperate need of help?
Viollca. He said he'd always help me, and I don't think he's capable of lying.

94. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
I don't.

78. What makes you laugh?
Tikno's swishy tail on my chin. The image of Viollca with goats and tiny women.

98. What three words best describe your personality?
I don't know. I never thought about my personality. Do I have one?

91. Do you like yourself?
No. I hardly know myself.

89. Are you generally organized or messy?
I don't own a lot of things, so I can't be very messy with them. But I don't spend time organizing them either. So neither, maybe.

43. What are your political views?
I don't pay attention to politics. Or most anything else, actually.

17. How much schooling have you had?
Too much and not enough. Nobody ever answers the questions I need answered.

26. When and with whom was your first kiss?
Janet Darling, eighth grade. Spin the bottle totally counts.

51. Is there anything you absolutely refuse to do under any circumstances? Why do you refuse to do it?
Go streaking. I'm all for being free and comfortable with yourself, but there are just way too many risks in that. I mean what if your grandmother caught you or something? No thanks.

49. How honest are you about your thoughts and feelings (i.e. do you hide your true self from others, and in what way)?
Pretty honest, I think... I mean, don't get me wrong, sometimes I keep stuff to myself, but that's because they're my things, you know? Don't want to bother other people with it, at least not till I sort it out on my own.

60. How close are you to your family?
Oh well. When dad was still around, things were a little strained, I guess. I mean, we were still a family, you know. We had out moments. But we also had Other Moments and.. yeah. Just strained and awkward and now... we're getting by, you know.

28. If you are a supernatural being (i.e. mage, werewolf, vampire), tell the story of how you became what you are or first learned of your own abilities. If you are just a normal human, describe any influences in your past that led you to do the things you do today.
That would be so awesome if I had powers. Anyway. A lot of the stuff I do all comes down to my dad. Try as I might to deny it, he's been and continues to be a powerful force in my life and that's both good and bad, I guess. I haven't really decided yet.

57. Do you have a spouse or significant other? If so, describe this person.
Haha, I guess that's John? Although he'd probably punch my head in if he heard me calling him that. He's a little SENSITIVE, see, haha. Nah, man, he's great. Kind of quiet but also kind of not, and what can I say, really? He's the best friend I never thought I deserved.

33. What is the most evil thing you have ever done?
Oh man. Oh man okay. Okay but you CAN'T TELL. So I was staying the night at John's place, right? We stayed up all night playing Halo so the kid was knocked out. I totally stuck his hand in warm water and made him pee on himself in his sleep and SHIT IT WAS SO FUNNY when he woke up I won't even lie! Oh man I don't think he knows even till this day but HIS FACE oh man. Priceless.

39. What is your worst memory?
I'd have to say a toss up between my dad's death or that time in the woods. Yeah. Just. Yeah.

91. Do you like yourself?
I think so, yeah. I mean, there's always little things I want to change, but overall I'm pretty okay with myself. Wish I made better decisions, that's all.

26. When and with whom was your first kiss?
YOUR MOM.
