#PennedPossibilities 950 — Can your MC swim?

[miswiredke@toot.community]

@floofpaldi thanks! I've been meaning to give it a read, so I'll definitely give it a read.

And definitely give it a read. It's super interesting with its handling of the villainess trope

#PennedPossibilities 966 — SC POV: When was the last time you got lost?

Samuel: About a month ago, on the way home from the pub with the lads. I had far too much to drink… Hati was laughing at me as I stepped into the flat. She immediately knew what happened, and then she put me to bed. I’m such a knobhead.

#PennedPossibilities 967 — What level of education do your characters have?

Although it’s the tail end of the Victorian era, most of my characters are very, *very* old (and are supernatural beings). Their education is self-taught, if they even have one to begin with. One of my characters, the MMC, is well-read, clever, intelligent, and a published author. It’s all self-taught for Alistair, of course, like I said. With that being said, because they’re all so old, they also have the time to learn anything and everything. At this point, they have nothing *but* time on their hands.

@MisWiredKE Which one did you mean, Zombie Loan or Blue Exorcist? They're both amazing. And thank you! I can't wait to check out May I Ask for One Final Thing. I bet it's great. It's always nice to have friends who also enjoy manga and anime as well.

[miswiredke@toot.community]

@floofpaldi Blue Exorcist. I don't remember where I stumbled on it, but I've always been curious about it.

It is nice. I don't generally talk about my hobbies as I can go on and on about it (especially Pokemon). Also I can be a lot when I get going

[floofpaldi@mindly.social]

@MisWiredKE Oh, okay. When you do get around to it, I'll just let you know one thing... My favorite character, in anything, honestly, is Father Shiro Fujimoto. I just absolutely love that man.

Never worry about being nerdy with me. I love Pokemon too. So much. We love a lot of the same stuff, I feel like.

[miswiredke@toot.community]

@floofpaldi I will!

And it really does seem like we do like a lot of the same stuff

[floofpaldi@mindly.social]

@MisWiredKE It totally does. Never worry about rambling to me!

#PennedPossibilities 967.1 — Bonus Question (Courtesy of @sfwrtr Pick a character. How do they, or how would they, react to sleep deprivation?

Let’s take Alistair, for instance. He would go out of his mind with frustration and rage. If it was forced sleep deprivation, there might be a murder on the hands of the mortals or immortals once he’s “escaped,” depending on who’s done this to him. If it’s simply insomnia causing it, well… He would be a mess, rather neurotic and emotional, and Fenella would probably step in to *try* and help. Eleanor would as well, to be fair. She’s like a mother to everyone in Dorcha Castle, and that includes our dear Alistair. She’s very sweet.

#PennedPossibilities 672 — What’s the current word count for your WIP?

At the moment, I’m only at 42, 354 for “Wings of Quiet Longing,” and that’s alright so far. I’m taking my time with it. I won’t rush the writing process.
