Simple and easy! Here's how it goes:

1. POST a top-level with your character name

2. REPLY to other people's top-level with a question for that character

3. ANSWER the question you were asked

4. ASK a question of that person's characters in return!

We go back and forth like this asking questions in a thread until one or both of us runs out of questions!

QUESTIONS CAN BE ANYTHING. Serious or silly as you want! What does Jane think of (x)? What does Sarah have for breakfast? How many times a day does Alex masturbate? What's Tom's dream job? The only limit for questions is your imagination.

Replies can be as monosyllabic or as tl;dr are you want; it's up to you. Go wild kids!

Was it one too many lasagna jokes that made you start going by Gar, or do you just like the short version better?

[animalage]

Garfield just sounds so... stuffy and old person-y, y'know? I'm not a sixty year old man with like twenty cats. Yet.




...but yeah the lasagna jokes don't help either.

[rockpun]

Uh, excuse me, former president James A. Garfield was a noble and strong man, and I will not have that kind of character assassination going on here. ...But the regular kind of assassination is fine, I guess. Because he... yeah.

Was the version of me you knew as much of a dorklord as I'm apparently becoming?

[animalage]

You Americans and your presidents.

I didn't really know a you, but I can guarantee that she could not possibly have been a bigger dorklord than you. I don't think that's possible.

What's your pizza of choice?

[rockpun]

Wow, and here I thought Canadians couldn't be rude. Way to prove me wrong. Plain cheese, by the way. It used to be pepperoni, but once you meet a guy who can turn into all the animals, it's hard to eat as much meat as you used to.

[she has no idea if he's Canadian, but she can't detect an accent and she's not about to make him say "aboot" so she just has to go with her gut.]

So, okay, I know this a lot realer than what we've been asking each other up until now, but. You already kind of know what my deal is, don't you? You didn't know a version of me, but you're smarter than people give you credit for.

[animalage]

Canadian? Wow, you're way off. I'm Quraci! Though Mama Logan did teach me to always be polite.

[Oh, and that is hella realer.]

I dunno, I mean... I kinda get that you're not telling me everything. You seem to know the Titans way too well to just be a friend. And you did slip up a few times. And you pushed the superhero adjacent thing pretty hard, which is kind of a give away.

[rockpun]

Literally never heard of the place, but my world history is pretty bad. That's cool.

[she won't mention anything about sakutia quite yet, even though yeah, she knows why his skin is green. Slade was very thorough in the research he forced her to do.]

Okay... okay. Yeah. At least you're being more up front about it than Cass is. I'm good at lying, but I don't want to be good at lying. I... ugh. This sucks. I mean, I trust you and everything, but this is weird, because you're not him. You just look and act like him. But. Okay. Okay, fine.

[she is totally in control of her emotions right now.]

My Gar and I used to date. He was really nice to me, and he really helped me out a lot, but we had a really, really nasty breakup. And it... kind of involved the Titans. [LIE HARD 2: LIE HARDER] And we made up really quick, but then I, um. I kind of.

Died. Sorry, does that clear things up at all?

[animalage]

Yeah, it does. A bit.

Thanks for trusting me. And I-i'm sorry that happened. I'm sorry that you died. [It seems like a pathetic response. But it's all he can think to say.]

I bet it's hard for you, that I look like him. I think I know what that's like. [After his mother had died he'd had trouble even looking M'gann. This isn't the exact same, but it gives him some perspective.] I can't really do anything about it but... I dunno.

I guess I just want you to know I understand.

[rockpun]

It's harder than I thought it would be. I hear you, I look at you, but all there is is him.

[she's amazed she's told this much to somebody who actually scares her, deep down. what she's saying could destroy her. she hears what he's saying, of course, but she's kind of just talking at this point.]

And... it's not fair, but that makes me afraid of you, too. I have a lot of things that I don't want people to know, and even though I know you're not him, my brain doesn't. My brain still thinks you're the same Garfield Logan from Jump City who—

[no. she has to stop.]

I don't even know if I should ask for forgiveness from you. For anything. I don't know what to do with you. And that sounds so messed up, doesn't it? God.

[animalage]

Hey, no, it's okay! I mean, it sounds a little messed up, but c'mon, the whole situation's messed up. Right? [He smiles and tries to be reassuring. Black Canary always said that was more important than anything else with things like these.]

You don't have to do anything with me. You don't have to have anything to do with me if you don't want to. I want to be your friend, but I get it if you can't be mine.

[He may be 13, but he can thank years of therapy for making him pretty emotionally mature.]

As for forgiveness... You don't need to ask me for it and I can't really give it to you, but if your Gar is anything like me, I know he would.

[rockpun]

[he would. he did. didn't he? she wasn't aware during her time as a statue, but she always had the idea that he came to visit her a lot. and she liked to believe some of the others did, too. but she's getting nostalgic. it wasn't necessarily their fault that she ended up as a statue to begin with, but—okay. pull yourself back to reality, Tara.]

I... don't think I would mind being friends. It wouldn't be easy. But you aren't him, and as long as I can keep telling myself that, you're not scary. You couldn't... hah. You couldn't destroy me. Not even if you wanted to.

[for many reasons.]

I can try being friends. If you're okay with being friends with a neurotic 16-year-old. Like, worse than usual for 16-year-olds.

[animalage]

[He doesn't completely follow, but that's fine. Tara doesn't need to explain herself if she doesn't want to. It already seems like she said more than she was planning to.]

[He laughs, and the sound is only slightly forced.] I definitely don't want to destroy you. In fact, I'm kind of in the opposite business.

I can totally deal with neurotics. But on one condition!

[rockpun]

[a condition? yeah, sure.]
