Ask a Character!

[Amelius]

Ask any CTV character anything you want, and they shall anwer personally. This should be fun ^_^
I warn ya though, I'll have to keep them from giving away any spoilers....

[Yarrum-kun]

Menu: do you EVER get full?

Mye: favorite gummi bear flavor? (or do they even come in flavors? They pretty much taste all the same to me).

Tony: Do I seem obsessed with food to you?

[Stonestrike]

Charby: What blood type tastes the best?

[deltaT]

Mannick: Want to come live with me? I have two cats....

[totalbishielockdow]

Tony: Umm... is there any specific way you prefer to be worshipped?

[Amelius]

Menu says: Yeah, once in a while... it's a good thing to be full of something you love, but then again it's a bad thing when you feel like your guts are gonna explode... And then I'm just hungry later anyway.
And here's something to remember: just because it's on the floor doesn't mean it's not fair game anymore!
Never eat anything that makes bubbles when it's wet.

Mye replies: Hmm...I'd like to say I like them equally, but it's the red ones I like most. The clear ones are interesting enough, and the green ones aren't bad unless they are green apple, because you might as well just buy all green because it makes the whole bag taste like it.
I'm not even sure what fruit the colors are supposed to match up with, save for the citrus ones (orange and lemon, lime green) But overall, it's the red ones that get my vote. Red like little bloody gummi bear brains.... delicious!>^_^<

Tony sez: Nein, youse seem to has a healthy enough interest in food in discussion, I's wouldn't says an obsession...unless dat's like all youse talks abouts elsewheres and youse gots posters of donuts over youse bed. It's fun to talks abouts foodstuffs, I knows I likes to talks abouts da foods at times. Youse ever watches any food channels? I stopped cuz it mades me hungry for foods none of da wimmens I lives with can cooks. I likes foods what comes in bags, like chips, 'cuz it requires only opposable thumbs but no real commitment. Never buys a box of cookies what has a picture of a mutt on der front, meat is not a good flavor for cookies.

Charby responds: Warm! Lessee, I don't really notice a difference in blood type, but age does have an affect on the taste however, as well as health. Sickly humans taste like medicine, and the younger ones tend to have a bit of a sweeter flavor to them. Not a sugar sweet, but yea I'm sure you get the picture. Drunks make me tipsy, and I've learned to stay away from people that are twitching before I even touch them....

Mannick say: You have catcats? Nifto neaty! Mannick loves kittys! Mannick love animals, animals make Mannick happyhappy! Mannick would like to live with catcat owner but that seems like far walk for even Mannick with cheetah hat on. Mannick put on "considering it" hat and get back later probably ^_^

[deltaT]

Mye: I know your life has been a little hectic lately, but when do you think you'll get around to fixing Zeno's coat?

[Rehiro]

Phineas: How did you meet Kavonn? it seems that you were the one who invited him to the cabin

Hexavier: Do you feel inadequate now that Kavonn has rendered your magic obsolete?

Kavonn: I ask you this because I value your opinion as the most dominent intelectual among your collegues at the location in which you currently reside. As of late I have been concerned as to whether I have been monopolizing the questions section of the forum which I am using presently as a means of comunication with you. Do you think that I should "tone it down" a bit?

[devi]

This goes out to Zerloke Quixoto Roderike Adria Charby and Most especially Gabrielle;

As central figures in the field of vampirism how do you view humanity as the initail state of all vampires? Are we a regretable past? Or perhaps mindless cattle, or capable of being intelligent or contributive on occasion; do consider us a threat as no other species has attempted to create vampire hunters?
Just in general, how do you consider we whom you were once like?

[Amelius]

Mye: aw, he hasn't asked me about it! I do feel really bad about ripping it like that, he'll have to bring it to me though...I shouldn't just sneak into his room and take it ^_^

Phineas: He rescued me from some bully water sprites when I was little,(he totally kicked their butts) and after that he was kinda like a bodyguard or something, either that or he was hanging around cuz he thinks my mom is hot or something...but anyways he helped me out, so I let him in on the deal with the house!

Hexavier: It's not the size of your magic, but how ya use it. He may have the big magic wishmaking back-scratcher, but if he tried to turn that thing on me I'd turn it into to a golden toothpick. I guess what I mean is yeah he's got easier access to magic powers, but he's probably not so tough without his staff and hat. I've always got it at my disposal even without my pendant! Ok maybe I am a little jealous....


Kavonn: Nonsense! One can never pose too many inquiries! If one does not question, one does not wonder, and therefore not think, in my opinion. I question every bit of my existence, in fact I question at times why I bother to rouse from my slumber every morning...But that aside!
I am all for the quest of knowledge, and questioning helps to mold and expand the mind! And getting answers is ever so satisfying at times, wouldn't you agree? But...if the questions wander into territory of what undergarments we prefer...then maybe a pause in the quest is recommended.


Zerlocke: I'll repond first! I've not had any real quarrel with humanity, and feel still that I have a close bond with my humanity...I know I've had a regrettable past in dealing with them (especially their females...no, not like that)
But I prefer now to just avoid them...their emotions tend to mess with my dreams later. I do believe that they are capable of being a big help to us elites (especially our hunter ally) and cannot question their intelligence, being that I used to be one at a time and seem to have a reasonable mental capacity. They can also be quite entertaining... overall, I'd have to admit I hold humans in a rather high regard over most other species other than us elites. I am not ashamed to claim I was once human as well.

Quixoto: Food, all of them. A bloody meat vessel for a mortal soul...and they are delicious. Especially the little ones. If anything else tasted better though, I'd be more willing to switch, humans get entirely too dramatic. I wish they would go with dignity for once.

Rodericke: Humans, they are the cause and the solution to all my problems...but I feel no particular malice or rancor toward them, since the extent of my woes have been caused by demons and Elites...so nothing personal against them, they just happen to taste very good.

Adria: Heh, let's just say I'm on both sides of the fence with this one. They are an important part of my past and my future though I certainly don't NEED them personally to survive, but I've had a few mortal boyfriends and they weren't too bad but they have the unfortunate drawback of being so breakable...

Charby: I hate them! And...yet, I love them...well, I have a few I like, a lot more I hate. It's like I'm a misanthropist but instead of being an introvert and writing goth poetry I just kill the morons that pi** me off. and suck their blood...but when it comes down to it, I'd prefer a chicken over a human any day. And I do feel very much like I retained my former humanity, I'm just...I guess I'm confused really. I'm not a human anymore, but I'm certainly not a monster. And loving certain humans is the cruelest thing that fate has ever done to me...
it's that bitter reality that you will live on while they wilt like a flower before you, they get so weak and then they leave you...and you are still the same. Only empty.
Well I certainly ended that on a sour note...


Gabrielle: Human? You mean like me? I like human! Except for Billy who throwed spitballs at me and dirt. I told on his mommy though. she spanked him good! I like his mommy and she's a human too right? What's a vampirism? Do you have candy? I like candy too. Is that like human too?

[deltaT]

(OK, I'm getting boring)

Zeno: You know that coat you used to wear all the time? The one with the zipper? Are you ever going to bring it to Mye to sew up for you? It looked really cool on you. I already asked her, and she said she'd fix it if you bring it too her. By the way, you've been looking really good lately!

[Rehiro]

Gabrielle: Has your life changed at all since your boyfriend bit you?

[Yarrum-kun]

Crispo: Do you horns ever come in handy, or are they just there?

Mannik: Favorite video game, and why.

Daray: More backstory on the tats, please.

[devi]

Quixoto, what do you know about your sire, did s/he also have eyes like yours? Do you think she did you a favor in turning you, or a disservice?

Floaty Bear, is there anything that you won't try to eat or destroy? And do you ever get curious about what something would do if you didn't try to eat or destroy it?

Adria, why did you first choose Zerloke, and then why did you turn his sisters?

[Amelius]

zeno: ah, that coat... I tried to fix it with staples, y'know, but they kept scratching me...I have bad luck with coats with tails, first that one ripped, and when I borrowed Charby's I killed my girlfriend...well, I looked pretty darn good in that coat, didn't I? WEll, I should ask her to fix it! She's good at that kinda stuff I guess...
hehe, me, looking good? heh...well...I must say I'm flattered...hehe... I dunno what I did different, maybe I should keep doing it! (maybe it's the cologne? Gotta be that...)

Gabrielle: Different? Ahm....I do feel like I wanna rip open people's necks and eat whatever comes out, but I think that is because my mommy says I have an overactive imagernation. that's how she explains every thing to me though...I wonder if it tastes like sugar!

Crispo: Meh, they are kinda like spoilers on a car, there for good looks but no real function. at least that I am aware of...I could gore someone pretty good with them if I was the goring type, but for now they do make good for opening bottles. And it's a real hoot when someones got balloons, I'll tellya what!

Mannick: Mannick likey Metroid, cuz pretty girl with different suits that make her have different abilities is Mannick's kinda girl! she kinda like mannick only with outfits instead of hat...that's nifto-neaty. Mannick also find miss aran's ability to roll into tiny ball strangely attractive...
Oh and Mannick also likes the gameplay...yah...

Daray: The one in the front is a sunset, cuz I thought it would look cool there...the blue one on my chest is a symbol from our village meaning "heart", that one was dedicated to my brother. the bands on my arms are just there to look cool, the black one on my back is our strength symbol, and the red one on the back of my neck is a dagger, Also dedicated to Darryn, since his death will be forever like a knifewound in my back, seeing as I caused it to happen...

Quixoto: You mean my parents? For I was born a vampire, unlike so many of the vampires running about these days...exactly why I had always made sure to dispose of leftovers properly! (no, don't mention that one...i regret it so!)
I have always known this life, feeding off the innocent, my mother taught me well in the manner of procuring a victim to feed upon. She was uncharacteristically caring for a demonic wench though... until shortly after I had reached my adulthood, when one of those blasted second-gen vampires killed her. Even purebloods are unsafe among the vampiric kind, for we have much power within us that those weakling "spawn" do not, and they get a rush from a quick drink of the original vampire's blood.
This is why my kind seems to be rare, save for our king...spawn seem to be more loyal to him than pureblood anyway. It's the human in them, I'm sure.
I never did know my father though, but was assured he was a vampire as well.

*translated out of bear language*
Me not eat something? Maybe if bigger than head and stick pointy things in tongue. porcupines are not good eats. Not eat rocks or things not moving that don't smell like dead either. Not eat pretty girl!
lost pretty girl too...wonder if she taste pretty too, but upon first lick not taste as good as looks, so try to keep her as floaty companion. stupid rabbit make pretty girl run into arms of smarmy vampire, not see her again. Saaad. me know that when not eat something right away when see it, it makes noise and runs. me likes that. funfun!

Adria: Well, I thought he was kinda cute at first, and after his dog didn't quite fill me and he came snooping around to see what I was doing, I decided "hey, what the heck! this could be fun!" and went for it. It really was, he had a lot of fight in him for someone who obviously had a broken spirit! I took his sisters in hopes that he would come looking for them so I could toy with his mind a little, but he took too long and I soon tired of their noises, so I shut them up for good. But I ultimately decided they would make good for little servants, and I erased their little memories of everything I did to them, but they decided to grow a will of their own and ran off on me. So much for sire loyalty!
but of course zerlocke finally found me, and he had obviously forgotten he even HAD sisters* in his persuit of me, and that is where the fun began!
At first I thought it would be fun messing with a man's mind like I did, but his unrelenting devotion was maddening...

*(note from Amelius: he didn't know she took them and assumed they were back in the house with his father, for earlier he had sent them to sleep in the barn with Zerlocke when they were crying too much, he left immediately after coming to as a vampire, just in case, to protect them)

[devi]

Quixoto: So your mother was among one of the origional demon-vampires? Like, before humans were even part of the equasion? Or do you just mean that your family is extremely pure blooded?
Also I uderstand that you tended to use a bear to ensure that none of your depredations resulted in a childer, would that have been the big purple floating bear?
One more question please, your own childer, that one mistake, did you ever try to kill him? Or did you ever consider it?
Floaty bear: DO you ever try to identify what you're eating, and tell the difference? For example do you know the difference between a Vampire and a human, or a dog and a werewolf?
Also, is there anything in the forest that you are afraid of?

[totalbishielockdow]

Tony: I still don't know the correct way to worship you...

[Rehiro]

Zeno: When Charby was leaving to kill his Sire how did you know his intentions? and why did you think you would find Mye?

Kavonn: Why didnt you kill the chubby Jackalope?

[X Daggers]

Tony: I think you look cute, still, without the hat! That wasn't a question... Uhm... So, have you had a past crush/love? Or did you only like Mye in your whole... unlife?

Zeno: What would you have done if Mye couldn't come back to life when you killed her?

[devi]

You guys are mean!
Thats like mae asking
Zerloke: When did you realize that Adria had no love in her heart for you and how did that feel?

[totalbishielockdow]

For a real question.

Daray: When Kav asked the short-lived question "what do you like about a girl" Were you going to respond as everyone assumed? If yes, is there really any depth to what you'd want in a woman? If no, what were you really going to say?

[devi]

What was it that I assumed?

[deltaT]

Kavonn: Who in the household would you go to first if you wanted to have an intellectual conversation?

Tony, Menu, Zeno, Hex, Mannick: You guys seem to watch a lot of TV. What are your favorite shows?

Mye: I hope this isn't too personal (you don't have to answer). Since your (normal) body is that of a 9-year-old girl, does that mean that you never menstruate? What about your Bunny form?

[Amelius]

Quixoto: Yes, indeed my mother was one of the ancients, so I am a pure descendant of the original race, which is why I appear so different from other vampires.
Oh, that beastly thing? I try to avoid him at all costs, such a nuisance...the bear I kept for food disposal was a normal bear, whom I was very unhappy to find knocked out when I returned to bring it another meal, as the child had not completely satisfied my hunger.
As for the mistake leftovers, I had no actual inclination to kill my competition, as I chose not to bother with it. It was done and I didn't see why I needed to waste my energy on him. I also sensed something very dangerous about him, because he looked different... and when he struck a friendship with Samrick I decided it was best to leave him be altogether. But consider it? yes, not much then, but more recently when I'm only known for sireing that pathetic waif and not the centuries of striking FEAR into the hearts of men. What bounty is there on me now? I've been completely forgotten! That reputation usurping brat...

Floaty bear:>Identify? Like look at? Vision not that good when squinty. even with one eye now! if it look pointy try to avoid, gets caught in teeth and stab tongue. if look like bite back, avoid. not like hurting. usually strangle big stuff first if look too dangerous. Know difference between human and vampire! Human taste better.
nothing scares! Except sunlight. And poisoned demons trying to make you eat. not dumb to fall for trick!<

Tony: ah, mebbe a sacrificial alter wid cheet-os or somethings would suffice! Menu keeps eating mine snacks...

Zeno: Oh, because I'd do the same thing in that situation, if he had killed Mye I certainly would have taken off with my powers to wreak my vengeance!
And I wasn't really sure we would find Mye, but I figured I would help him out by bringin remote beast to sniff out the quarry. I hoped we would find Mye first, and then I could take her home while Charby did his thing. I didn't think she was in any kind of trouble, so it was quite unexpected to find she was with the vampires...

Kavonn: Well, sad to say, the first time we met he hurt my neck so bad that he took off while I was asessing the damage he had done. When I met him the second time, he seemed to have this intelligence to him, and it also helped that he had not just burst from my hat at the moment, which is most of the reason for my violent reaction to them. I was also in a state of melancholy so beating down the lowly creature because I had been rejected didn't seem right at the moment.

Tony: Well, thenks! But I does prefers dis look der best... anyways, previous to Mye dere had been slight attraction to dis girl who was a neighbor of mine while I were still in Germany, but I learned dat she wasn't as sweet as she looked and she said the most bitter things to me, and I lost mine interests in her. Females generally tended to look away from me...or down on me...or stare in disgust...either way, I were held in contempt in da eyes of females, and when I met Mye it changed mine perception of the gender...she didn't pull away from me right aways when she seen me, she were grateful for what I had done for her...and she even hugged me. Mine own mudder wouldn't even hug me! We were fast to become friends, and everything about her I liked...She just never made me feel like I were a monster. A pervert sometimes yes, but it were true because I is, but dat can't be helped sometimes...
She's der first dame dat ever made me feel like i's had a chance to be loved, and I's still regretting dat I let mine pal have da first move...because heck, if she said yes to him I certainly had as much a chance, rights?

Zeno: plain and simple, I would have killed myself to join her...and if not that, have someone else end me...
If I had to live on anyway, I would have died soon anyway from despair.

Daray: well, I was thinking "girls with big breasts and nice hair" but I was going to saysmart, nice girls who like me for who I am and won't judge me for things I have done in the past. And they have to be pretty too.


Kavonn: for intellectual confabulation, I'd first go to Chary, as he may match me in intellect (though certainly not in maturity) and I'm quite sure he has had quite a long time to aquire much useful information. Of course if he was unavailable, either of the zombie twins would do, since they seem to be on the high end of intellect, and they both seem to have a knowledge in things that interest me quite a bit, especially reanimation.

Tony:whatever's on dat looks entertaining and has some sort of plot. Lotsa scifi type stuff interests me.
Menu: Cartoons!
Tony: yea, and cartoons.
Hex: I like that paranormal unsolved mystery stuff...
Mannick: Mannick like shows with amnimals!!
Tony: yeah, the animal stuffs is nice too, and the cartoons as long as it ain't something ugly on Nickelodeon. And I HATES dat reality stuff...
Hex: yeah, they got some ugly cartoon characters...heh
and I don't get the reality thing either...that's why I watch TV, to ESCAPE reality! It's just defeating the whole purpose...plus if I wanted to watch humans act stupidly for money I'd tie a dollar to a fishing line and go downtown!
Menu: I like westerns when they're on. And I also like the animal channels, but they make me hungry.
Hex: so does everything, Menu...
Menu: shut up,...er...YOU!

Mye: um..eek! of course not! My body in the other form is still essentially my original zombie body, so the only real changes are appearance and abilities. other than that, I'm still...not having that happen...
plus, in my original form, I'm not growing at all except for my hair and nails (which would continue to grow if I was a corpse anyway) so no changes are being made internally as well.

[Soap]

On a quick side note:

Fun Fact! Hair and nails do not continue to grow post mortum. They appear to have grown on corpses that are slightly old because of the shrinking that occurs when the flesh begins to degrade! Checking to see if the nails had grown was once a common test to see if the dead were actually Vampires! Of corse most corpses that were dug up showed what looked to be nail growth, and thus the townsfolf cut the corpse's head off, staked its heart, put garlin in it's mouth, put the head at it's feet, croddes the legs over (but not the feet!) and buried them at a crossroads.

[Soap]

Hey I have a good one.
Anyone in general: Do you guys enjoy watching monster/horror movies and laughing at the silly monsters?

[Amelius]

really? *incredulous* School lied to me! (several times!)
and so did all those funfact things...I feel so mislead!

Charby: Yeah, I like to watch that junk, it's funny how stereotypical they get. And the wolfman looks like a monkey!
Phineas: but the Creature from the Black Lagoon is cool.
Hex: the zombies are funny too. Braains!
Charby: you've eaten brains before...
Hex: yeah, but I don't make a big deal of it...

[totalbishielockdow]

Off topic as it might be... It would be incredibly funny(if only to my circle) if Tony just randomly had a bowl of bloody Cheeto's appear in his lap, and exclaim something to the effect of: "What the hell!? ... *munch*" Although that would break the fourth wall...

[devi]

Hex: what is the most important thing in the world to you, and why.
What is the next most important thing?

Mye: If one of them had to die who would you choose Hex or Zeno?

Zeno: Do you ever think that the reason people lie to you is because they don't think they can rely on you?

Charby: What has it been like to watch as the greatest minds and greatest artists had their rise and fall; knowing that the world around you kepps changing and evolving while you are forced into stagnation?

Adria: why do you want people to be fixated on you?

Quixoto: Did you love your mother? Because you do seem to feel some residual respect for an act of caring on her part and you still burn with anger over her death.

Menu: how do you fell about being constantly hungry, constantly lacking, and in a world of continuous pain? Do you ever resent your state as a werewolf?

Vic: Even though Charby didn't kill Victoria do you still blame him for not saving her?

[Soap]

Here are a few articles that explain (the vampire things that I was talking about a second ago) things in more detail if anyone is interested

members.fortunecity.com/vampyyrisali/kirje3.html - quite interesting. Explaines a few things about how people killed off vampires and signs of being a vampire. Includes case notes.

www.madsci.org/posts/archives/may97/863802062.Me.r.html - Here is an article pertaining to the the apparent elongation of finger nails after death specifically. Written by a retired Pathology/Anatomy M.D. A self proclaimed "Mad Scientist" I recomend the website highly. It explaines all sorts of fun things in easy to understand language.

www.emedicine.com/derm/topic473.htm - This one is all about erythropoietic protoporphyria (also known as EPP or Gunther's Disease) wich, along with TB is one of the deseases beleaved to be the mother and aid of vampire myths. It's a little word heavy, but that's good for you.
