Storyteller Saturday! What are your OCs worst habits? What's Colin's least favorite instrument? Does Phoenix have a favorite coat? Who named their weapon(s)?
Phew, we’ve got some special personalized questions here, don’t we! I LOVE THIS, thank you my darling~
What are your ocs’ worst habits?
Celestine’s might just be her... borrowing tendencies. Possibly also the whole snapping-at-everyone-no-matter-what thing. That might also be a bit of a bad habit. Oh, there’s also the fact that she refuses to have a proper diet or sleep schedule. That might actually lead into her snappy thing.
For Colin, it’s his inability to sit still and listen. He just... can’t listen to people unless it’s interesting for him! It makes taking orders very difficult. Also! He sleeps in late a lot. An especially terrible habit for a sailor.
Ehhhh, Phoenix, what’re your bad habits? I mean, she sometimes really enjoys annoying people she doesn’t like. It’s particularly bad when it happens in a formal Navy meeting. Hey, Phoenix? Maybe it’s not the best idea to subtly insult the person you’re making a deal with, aye?
Ah. Dione. Uh huh. How about casting unnecessary charms on people to avoid her problems? How about cursing herself so she doesn’t have to eat or sleep anymore, when curses are BAD. Her health is terrible. She’s still alive(?), but... Dione. Stop. Just... Stop.
What's Colin's least favorite instrument?
Ooh! OH! Colin is usually not one for having things he dislikes, but... the heckin’ spoons. He has nothing against them specifically, it’s just... before he got the chance to learn the fiddle, it was always the spoons. “Oh, hey Colin! Play the spoons for us!” “Oh, Colin! Would you play the spoons for me while I play a way cooler instrument?” “Colin! Play the spoons so I can take the center of attention!”
Colin’s not one for jealousy, but it got a little annoying after a while when you have a lot of friends that can play really cool instruments and you yourself never got the chance to learn.
The spoons aren’t even a blasted INSTRUMENT, THEY’RE EATING UTENSILS YOU ABSOLUTE FORKS.
Anyways. That’s Colin.
Does Phoenix have a favorite coat?
AKJHSDKJSKDJJHH YES. She gets it about halfway through the book! It’s a scarlet red frock coat with gold trim! I still have no idea where she got it from, but once I do, it’s getting it’s own backstory guaranteed.
Who named their weapon(s)?
I think Rose is the only one who’s actually named her weapons. She uses a rose gold jambiya she named ‘Thorn’, because she’s a nerd. I mean, there’s also the fact that Celestine gives really weird names to her ‘inventions’ which may or may not occasionally be used as weapons~
