aww yeah it's question meme time

Time to bring back one of my old faves...

the QUESTION meme





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!

Ter...ribly? Ellie's about the same age as he was when he got addicted to drugs, which means it's also around the age when his own parents gave up on him. So he has no idea... what you do... with a kid that age. Aside from leave them to their business. Like, he wouldn't begin to know how to lay down the law with her. The second she'd go off and do something without his permission he'd be like... Well, fuck. I don't know what to do about that. Guess I better just get over it. And if she came to him for advice on things, his advice would generally be useless or flat-out bad. He'd love her so much and he'd be as attentive as possible, but he'd always be more of a friend than a parent and always try to do the cool thing instead of the thing that would give her a sense of stability or order. He'd spoil her rotten and unintentionally encourage bad behavior through sheer lack of rule enforcement. Or lack of rules in general. It's kind of how I think Aunt Ginny raised him when she took him in: all the love in the world but too much enabling behavior. Ellie might grow up to be just like him, which is the opposite of what he'd want.

How would Joel's life have gone if Sarah had never died but the world still went to shit?
