Weird Interview Questions

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

Ok so I was thinking about all the questions I would want to ask Gen, Irene and all the other KoA characters. I decided to post it all here to share and possibly get some answers. Some of the questions are downright strange and others have some content in them.

TOTALLY NOT A BIASED RESPONSE

[jade-sabre-301.livejournal.com]

Costis:

1) I don't know that my honor is as wide as a river. Aris would just say I'm stubborn, but I believe in doing what's right. I like to think that most people do, though I know it's not true. I think the king wants to do what's right, but the court makes it incredibly hard for him.

2) Why would anyone want to make me captain of the guard? Teleus already has the job, and he's very devoted.

3) I don't remember. I think I made some comment during one of our training sessions after I was promoted that caused everyone else to stare at me, and Aris stuck up for me because he thought what I said was hilarious. Something about that stubborn honest streak, as he calls it.

4) I am happily married to Jade, thankyouverymuch. The septuplets, by the by, are doing fine.

Re: TOTALLY NOT A BIASED RESPONSE

Reply to...
1) That is so profound. I'll keep that in mind next time Gen gets you to deliver a dancing bear :)) *just kidding*

2) Good point. You are quite humble indeed Costis.
3) aww sweet sentimental moment
4) Oh, of course...it's just that I though uhhh *looks awkward* never mind. *run's away before Jade decides to borrow Costis' sword*

Re: TOTALLY NOT A BIASED RESPONSE

[tearoha.livejournal.com]

Costis: 4)

HE IS HAPPILY MARRIED TO JADE, thankyouverymuch.

Re: TOTALLY NOT A BIASED RESPONSE

[tiegirl.livejournal.com]

WHO IS THIS JADE PERSON SPEAKING FOR MY HUSBAND??!!!

DO NOT LISTEN TO THE LIES, PEOPLE!

[wondersuntold.livejournal.com]

haha I love the Magus question! It's something I've been wondering about ever since the first book. Though perhaps now I can't think of him as having a name other than the Magus.

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

And MOW too...what is his name? I sure hope MWT will tell us soon ;). Or else I'll be calling MoW that way in my fanfics. *Ehem ehem, uncle MoW cough*

Gen:

[zumie-ashlen.livejournal.com]

1) Well, "kind" is really a relative term, entirely up to your own interpretation... and it's unfair question! Royalty must be held to entirely different standards because the situations call for them and--*rant*
2) Yes, and I certainly am going to post it in a public place where they can read it... *rolls eyes*
3) Oh, how I long for it.
4) Costis, much as I love the poor dear, lacks the intellectual capacity for subtle reconnaisance missions. I might tell him to do so and drop him off in a neighboring town for a laugh, though.
5) ARE YOU A MIND-READER.*
6) I sing like a bird. Children laugh, women swoon, and my darling is so moved she will throw things at my head.
7) ...I... I'm sorry, I was just, thinking. About wheat. Obviously. *coughs*

*I was seriously planning on making the next crack roleplay post about this topic! Nooooes!

Re: Gen:

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

I- I had honestly no idea you were going to do that, cause I am not a mind reader. But that would be just AWESOME, go ahead with it :)).

To the king: Gosh I would love to hear you sing one time...tell me, should I bring earplugs? :))

[ninedaysaqueen.livejournal.com]

Okay, I'm going to role play for Irene and Sophos, because it's fun.

Irene-
1) Are you pregnant planning for an heir?

Matters of that nature concerning my person are NOT subjects little girls should be discussing.

2) Are you still jealous of Helen?
...

3) Can you retell your wedding night? We want details.

Oh, yes... my wedding night... I poisoned my groom if I recall correctly. I assume you are referring to no other wedding night.

*malicious smile*

4) Why do you think you're old?

My husband is too young.

5) Do you like riding in boats?

Not when Thieves are in them.

6) Would you ever agree to wear a sundress?

I am a queen, young lady. Not a prattling girl at a picnic.

7) Do you have other talents other than glaring and dancing and ruling the populace? We know you've done some acting in your time, would you pursue that?

You ask far too many questions; and I believe I must depart, being that I just noticed there are a few vacant cells in my dungeon. *stares at Mira* I shall have the allay that problem.


Sophos-
1) Why do you blush so much?

*blush*

2) How far did your relationship with Helen get?

*blushes beat red* Ahh... I... I...

3) What is in those letters you write to her?

*faints from embarrassment*

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

Ok I was laughing like crazy at this...especially Sophos. Goodness I love your answers *is still laughing*

Irene will probably find my icon appropriate.

[katewaits.livejournal.com]

Gen-
1)Would you say that Irene has become kinder?

Yes ... depending.

2) Do you have some plan to kick but the Mede?

*smiles*

3) Despite your aversion to killing will you take Nahuseresh's life if you had the chance?

Don't you mean "when" I have the chance?

4) Do you think Costis can pass of as a Medean?

Why would he do that? You're implying there are secret plans afoot. I'd love to know where you came by such a specious tale.

5) Will you play matchmaker for Costis?

Costis needs no matchmaker. I have it on good authority that he has no fewer than three superlative feminine admirers in Sounis alone. If he needs a matchmaker in those fertile fields, he's not worthy of the bounty.

6) Do you know how to sing? Can you compare yourself singing to someone/something so we'll have a better idea?

*Raises one eyebrow*

7) What would you think about Irene in a sundress?

*blinks*

*closes eyes tightly*

*opens eyes*

Excuse me. This interview is over.

*leaves room through the stone wall*

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness...may I collapse into a heap of laughing putty now? Gen, come back here...I have a few more questions!!!

[katewaits.livejournal.com]

Ornon-
1)Will we ever find out why you hate sheep?

I don't hate sheep. I love sheep. I had, at one time, a rather large flock of which I was quite fond. I hate the "sound" of sheep when made by a certain king.

2) How did Gen earn your respect?

I haven't told him, yet, so why would I tell you?

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

1) Ohhhh really. *drags in a bleating sheep*
2) So that's why Gen wouldn't tell Relius =)). That is so WIN.

[katewaits.livejournal.com]

MOW-
1) What's your name?

Kickbootyus

Why doesn't anyone ever say it?

They're afraid of me.

2) How many other children do you have?

Eugenides advised me never to tell. Suffice to say, they are the normal ones.

3) What do you think of your daughter-in-law?

I try not to.

[styromgalleries.livejournal.com]

1) What's your name?
Kickbootyus
Why doesn't anyone ever say it?
They're afraid of me.
All of a sudden, I'm imagining MOW icons with Chuck Norris facts. lol

Better yet, I say we do them for the Magus!

[styromgalleries.livejournal.com]

Gen7) What would you think about Irene in a sundress?
Gen: *come back later; inner-mind-theater in progress*

Irene5) Do you like riding in boats?
*see icon*

Loling at the questions to Nahuseresh.

These are great, locket!!

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

To Gen: Could you give us an answer now *giggles*

To Irene: So is that a yes or a no? Though we are quite sure you are very proud of your boat...

[tearoha.livejournal.com]

Oh, fun!

Helen-
1) Do you ever plan to visit Gen?
As neighbouring monarchs, of course we will be visiting each other's courts. I fully expect to have to drag the whole circus down the mountain fairly shortly. I can hardly wait. It's not every day I get to be despised by a whole country at such close range.

2) Do you think he's happy with Irene?
Gen's choices are his own, as are his feelings.
Seriously - Gen lies in his sleep. He lies to himself. And when he has a problem, he skulks in temples and goes all emo on rooftops. Also, he lives about a week's travel away. He certainly isn't baring his soul to me about how his marriage is going.

3) Is there hope for you and the Magus?
Uh, the Magus and I have a great deal of hope, mostly regarding surviving the next few years with our countries and our lives intact.
Why? That is what you were asking, right?


Magus-
1)What is your name?

A. Loof

[tearoha.livejournal.com]

Oops. Tag FAIL.

[rosalui.livejournal.com]

......I'd like to ask Gen where his brain was when he fell in love. o.O *gets dragged away by Attolia fans*

Gen - How do you feel about the prospect of a new Queen's Thief in Eddis? Does it prick your professional pride?

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

Gen: 1) My brain was safetly in my head thank you very much. But then again I was upside down...(head over heels much?)

2) New queen's thief huh? Well according to Eddis' own word's I am HER thief (as much as my wife will argue) and as long as she is queen I am her thief. But she can get a new servant-fetch-my-earrings guy, I don't care. *seriously looks like he cares* I do not! *goes of to the corner to cry*

Dite

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

1)Will you ever come back to Attolia?
If ever his majesty will need a music tutor for his coming heir (perhaps) why not?

2) What's it like in Ferria?
Uhh that is described in the book. Read it to enhance your literary knowledge.

3) Do you miss your brother?
Yes, what kind of question is that?

added question:
1) Do you still like Irene?
Who could argue with me when I say she's quite unforgettable?

That wasn't the question...

2)So are you open to new relationships?
Wait, are you hinting at something?

Uhhh no Dite of course not *backs away slowly*

Re: Dite

[ninedaysaqueen.livejournal.com]

Careful, Mira. You might scare your love interest away.

[dannybailey.livejournal.com]

Do you have other talents other than glaring and dancing and ruling the populace? We know you've done some acting in your time, would you pursue that?

HAHAHA. This is awesome. Your questions are fantastic. :D

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

Well thanks. It's always fun to post something for the Sounisians to ponder about. You talk about one thing then the next thing you know it's sparkly characters in bathing suits.

Nahuseresh

[ninedaysaqueen.livejournal.com]

Nahuseresh-

1) Will you ever change the style of your beard?

My beard is the height of fashion in Medea. Attolia is so far behind the trends it's shameful. Embarrassing in fact, and without my beard I never would have gotten called a red-bearded jagbag. This is what adventurous fashions do, my dear. Create new vocabulary words.

*looks smug*

2) Do you HAVE to come back in the next book?

Young lady, a book is not a book without a villain; and hopeful this time the villian will win.

Gen in the background: You wish! Mrs.Turner likes me more than you. She made me the main character, after all.

Re: Nahuseresh

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

1) Uhuh...new vocabulary words like forked ketchup bottle...ok then.
2) Why do you and Attolia call me the same thing...have you two been talking to each other? Warning: a certain king may not like that.

Aris:

[kitsune-rains.livejournal.com]

1) What do you think of all the Costis bashing in the recent fics?

There has been Costis-bashing? *cracks knuckles* Do I need to go do some bashing of my own?

2) Are you offended that the questions are all about Costis?

All of these questions are going to be about Costis...? *gets up and leaves*

Re: Aris:

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

1)Uhhh wait Aris that wasn't me that was uhhhhm Legarus. Yeah, it was Legarus.

2) No wait the questions aren't all about Costis, one is sorta, kinda, a bit about you...in general...

[tiegirl.livejournal.com]

Ooo kay! This was just too imaginative and funny, both questions and answers!

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

1)Will you ever fall in love?
Perhaps one day...but I think you're the strange interviewer my cousin has warned me about so I am not obliged to answer.

2) Will you marry Sounis?
No way! He's way too...*whispers* old.

3) Can you knit properly yet?
I'm trying ok, I'm really really trying. Stop pressuring me...*hyperventilates*

Ok Agape is seriously stressed *looks at Helen and Gen* did you two make her knit something?

MoW & Aris

[ninedaysaqueen.livejournal.com]

MoW
1) What if you get grandchildren from Gen?

*glazed over look*

2) Were you handsome at least once in your life?

I hope you are not implying that I am not handsome now.

3) How did Gen's mother marry you without using your name?

In the army we have this saying, you will know if you need to know; and you do not need to know.

4) What was the name written in the marriage contract? Don't tell me your name is actually Kickbootyus A. Loof. Gen's last name would be Loof and Attolia will be Irene Loof.

Whoever... it is that suggested that my name is Kickbotyus A. Loof better not by on Sounis at the moment.

Names are meaningless. It is character that counts

Aris-
1) What do you think of all the Costis bashing in the recent fics?

These are questions from that strange interviewing rumors have been flying around about, right? I also heard that the Costis bashing is her fault. She should fix it not ask me about it.

2) Are you offended that the questions are all about Costis?

Another thing she could fix.

3) Does Costis need extra baby-sitters?

He probably will. Considering, his wife just got eaten by dragons (OOC: hate to bring up your shame, Jade). Such a tragedy that was...

4) Do you think Costis and Jade need help with their seven bouncing babies?

As I said, Jade is absent; but I have heard him considering another one of the woman who were fighting over him. Oh... What was her name... Ti... Ta.... Oh, I can't remember.

*Lady Jane shakes hands of Aris and MoW for coming to visit her in dungeon*

You'd better send Gen soon, Mira. There is no electricity in this era.

*notice icon*

Re: MoW & Aris

[openedlocket.livejournal.com]

I'm here, I'm here, with Gen too...oh wait this is Dite. I forgot I had him handcuffed to me so he wouldn't get away...come come Dite...we have to go find Gen *gahlloomps (new word) around the prisoner guards who are too confused to do a thing*
