V9 Concept Questions Thread

[Ryuki]

Don: I was playing Mario 64 once and Mario started jumping all weird. It looked like he was bending backwards like that girl from The Exorcist.

Simon: I was out walking at night, and when I got home, I thought I heard someone close by whistling at me. When I turned around, no one was there. Spooky.

Flick: I was out shopping with my mom when I saw this guy covered in gold paint standing still. When we got closer to him, he moved like a robot! I was so surprised, oh my God!

Taylor: My dad brought me to a barbecue restaurant that had a bunch of taxidermy heads of deer. Felt like I was being watched as I ate.

Wally: My brother brought home a rock that turned out to be a geode. Pretty cool honestly.

Question: What do you think your spirit animal would be?

[Dr Adjective]

Heather: Sounds like appropriation... but if I had a Fylgja, it'd probably be a bear.

Mercy: It has to be an animal? Well scratch Sadako and Kayako then... screw it, peacock. I'm faboulous.

Hope: Um... maybe a stag. I think that works.

L.K.: Cat! In a catgirl way? Maybe.

Question: What do your characters think of your other characters?

[BlightLupus]

Marie: "Jason acts like an idiot, but he seems useful for getting people on my side. I tried approaching Olivier before, someone who is as cautious and skilled as him could prove useful, but he stonewalls me every chance he gets. What a waste. Lucy's skill at fencing seems well-honed, but it isn't very useful to me. I doubt that we will cross paths."

Jason: "Marie is boring. She has enough money to do whatever she wants and she spends it on bettering herself? Lame. Lucy and Olivier are fun to watch when they practice fencing and archery respectively, but not quite as entertaining as they can be. Plus, neither of them seem to like talking to me much.

Lucy: "Marie seems nice...I-I think. Jason is a little scary to be around...it always feels like he's ready to endanger everyone for fun. Olivier is scary to be around too...in a very different way. I have no clue what he's thinking all the time..."

Olivier: "Marie is a bit annoying. I'd rather she stop trying to recruit me into whatever plan she has. Jason is even more annoying. At least Marie has some kind of clear intention when talking at me. Jason doesn't seem to have any reason to annoy me at all."
"...Lucy? Who's that?"

Question: What do you believe in the most?

[NoLife]

Lily: Violence and hurt. When nothing makes sense they are the simplest things.

Taylor:Bonds! No wait, Entertainment! No, the real answer is putting on a good show. No matter what, when you preform you don't stop till the curtain call and you hear the cheers of the crowd.

Raymond: Music, No matter what music can save you.

Storm: Courage.


Question: What is your special skill few people know about?

[Magnum 0pus]

Claude - "I don't mean to toot my own horn, but I'm a terrific singer. No one even knows about this since it's mostly something I do to help calm my grandfather and- in some cases- my older sister, Lucie, whenever she visits!"


Question: What would you consider to be the most useful superpower for day-to-day life?

[Dr Adjective]

Heather: Hold on, let me link you this Thought Slime video real quick... anyway, uh, even without his other powers, Superman's solar-powered strength and stamina could generate unlimited clean energy for everyone. That'd be real useful in the day-to-day.

Mercy: Shapeshifting would definitely save me a lot of time.

Hope: Is super genius a superpower? If we had Tony Stark or Reed Richards in real life, think how many problems we'd already have solved!

L.K.: Getting to fly would be cool and convenient, but then I'd have to stop wearing skirts... unless...

How would you describe your political ideology?

[Fiori]

How would you describe your political ideology?

Marcy: Ahem... I personally identify as an anarcho-syndicalist/neoliberalist/commu... Pfffff, HAAAHAHAHAHA, yeeeeah right. Politics are for fucking nerds who believe their shitty ideology is better than your shitty ideology.

Koa: Aw gee, uuuuh, I mean I don't tend to think about it all that much but I guess I'd probably vote democrat like my parents? They seem pretty chill compared to the other guys...

Johnny: Heh, like all true Americans, I love me some freedom baby! Free love, free speech, free... Um, markets? Maybe? Like it's got the word free in it so that means it's a good thing, right?

Florida: Oh? Well, I suppose I come across as fairly conservative compared to a lot of my peers, granted I'm not... SUPER keen on Canon.


Question: It's prom night, and everyone gets to submit a song for the playlist! Which song did you pick?

[midnight_twelve]

Niall: Well, my favourite song is the Lester Young rendition of "There Will Never Be Another You", but I'm not sure it fits the prom vibe. Perhaps for a slower dance?

Hayden: My music tastes are probably too "edgy" and not "politically correct" enough for my coddled peers. They would likely prefer some pop music slop churned out by Taylor Sheeran or Ed Swift or... whomever these philistines listen to. However the question presupposes I have free reign to submit what I wish so they can deal with it and listen to "Without Me", by Eminem. If I am to be "cancelled" let it at least be to the magnum opus of rap's great auteur.

Rowan: Only the greatest guitar track of all time, "Sweet Jane" by the Velvet Underground. Real talk I have a whole playlist for this specific situation. Prom committee, hit me up, alright?

James: "Born in the USA" by good ol' Bruce Springsteen, of course! What else?

Ash: "Meat is Murder" by the Smiths. Let's watch my classmates squirm, shall we?

Time to book your dream holiday! Where are you going, what are you doing and who (if anyone) is coming with?

[FlockOfHens]

Time to book your dream holiday! Where are you going, what are you doing and who (if anyone) is coming with?

Beau: Oh man, I've been DYING to try out that hiking trail to Machu Picchu!! I wanna bring my mom, my dad, my sisters, and all of the Outdoor Rattlers if possible!!!

Inessa: I know there's a ton of people who want to go to Japan just for the city sight, but I feel like the countrysides go unappreciated, y'know? I'd bring my parents, but I hope that Storm would come as well, we'd wear yukatas together! Maybe I can ask Tay also...

Marino: I'd probably plan an epic cross-country road trip with all my friends! I mean, it's a good chance to visit every destination the open road offers! For example, there's a Buc-ee's the size of a supermarket somewhere in Texas!

Remi: I guess Salt Lake City wouldn't be so bad... Or the Philippines? I don't know, anywhere with a shit-ton of water would be fine by me.

Question: What Generation do you think is the best? (ex. The 80's, The 50's, The Early 2000's)

[Magnum 0pus]

Claude O'Neil Porter - It's hard to pick which Generation is truly the best, after all, they each have such great and unique things about them. But, if I were to have to choose, I'd either pick the 40's or the 80's, due to how life was like back then from what my grandparents used to tell me and my sister when we were younger.

Question: In a zombie apocalypse, equipped with the supplies needed to survive, what is the only weapon you consider to be useful to fight the undead?

[Ahab9]

Travis: Well, it's a close tie between a bow and a crowbar. Former's silent and you can recover the arrows, while the latter is useful everywhere but I really don't like it to be close and personal with the infected: I mean, only 28 Days Later made a zombie apocalypse right. One drop of blood in the wrong place and you're thoroughly fucked sideways with a sharp fork. Then you need a lot of strength to actually break an human skull, a lot of stamina to swing and some really tough guts to watch the bone crack from the inside and the skin tear and the decayed arteries burst, spraying you with coagulated blood over you and-

-you know, I'm giving a lot of cons to melee combat, so let's go with the bow.

Ezra: A fully furnished tank with ammo and chainsaws at the sides. Counts as a weapon, don't judge me!

Question!: You're planning a road trip! Who do you want to invite, and why?

[NoLife]

Lily: My brother of course. I have to take care of him, and even then who would I bring instead my mother? But besides him maybe Heather or LK, they are keeping my bed warm... LK would probably do something pervy in the car.

Taylor: My other half! We twins don't go that far from each other if we can help it. Besides Harper maybe Lucy or Hope maybe even Mercy, Lucy is cute and it would do good for getting her out of her shell. Hope because it might be a chance for us to reconnect, and Mercy because of course.

Raymond: Hmmm, Jason or Emma. Jason is funny and Emma is entertaining.

Storm: My girlfriend Inessa of course! And maybe Taylor.

Question: Fuck, marry, kill for our class?

[f1nch3z]

Mihai: Fuck, marry, and kill Olivier. In that order.

Adrienne: Oh, um, this is an awkward question. Fuck Mercy, maybe (I'm not a creep I swear). Probably marry Lucy. Kill... myself?

Law: PAUSE. Guys I don't think this question is school appropriate. So I'm just gonna... decline to fuck or kill anyone. I'd be down to marry most of the people here, though. Maybe, like, Londyn or something.

Question: If you could get one do-over in your life, without messing up the current timeline too much, what would it be?

[BlightLupus]

Marie: "Easy. Use my knowledge of future stock market fluctuations and major news to advise people who will become famous or important in the future and gain their trust, hence strengthening my network."

Jason: "Geez. At least say that you'll use that info to get richer or something...Not that you need it, I guess. Hmm~ I'm a 'live in the present' kinda guy, so I can't say I have any regrets I wanna fix, so I'll steal Marie's idea and use the future knowledge to just get rich instead!"

Lucy: "I...I should've told my parents about all the pressure I was under earlier, I think...They weren't as disappointed as I thought they'd be, and it would've made my life a lot easier...But then, i-it feels like I'm betraying them by slacking off earlier than I should, a-and it's not like I couldn't handle it, so...I'll change nothing...I guess..."

Olivier: "I should've done everything in my power to get my parents to stay in Alaska instead of moving us to this hellhole desert."

Question: What is your best OR worst experience in your life?

[FlockOfHens]

Beau: (Best) I think when I reached the ceiling of the Red Rock Climbing Center for the first time was easily one of my best moments! It only took me several hundred times, but it paid off!!

Inessa: (Best) I wasn't too hooked on the English dub of this one anime I watched, but when I got a signed poster of the main character's voice actor, it instantly made my day! Plus, I got totally hooked on the dub!

Marino: (Best) I'd probably say the first time I've baked edibles. Bro, I have to say, weed and brownies are the best combination. Ever.

Remi: (Worst) Do you know how hard it is being told that your dream hobby as a profession will never be useful to you every day? I have. Pretty fucking horrible.

Question: You get to eat at your favorite restaurant, what do you order?
