Questionnaires 1- 5: Vinnie Mannheim of rabiesandcake
Questionnaire #1 - The Basics
1. Your Name:
LaVinia Joan Mannheim. But I prefer "Vinnie".
(call me by my full name and DIE!)
2. Your age:
25
3. Describe yourself:
I am a black female. I'm 5 foot 7 inches tall with black shoulderlength hair. Sometimes I color or streak the front bangs in blue or purple, depending on what I plan on wearing that week.
I have dark violet eyes, full lips and a sweet smile. Or so I'm told.
I would guess I weigh about 135 pounds. I "pack much back", and I have a penchant for Superhero themed T-shirts and blue lipstick.
4. Describe your mate (if applicable):
I don't have a permanent mate right now, but I am ever on the search for mr. or ms. right.
I think I may have a crush on my friend, Squint, but don't tell him I said that. I have sort of a casual sexual relationship with my friends, Gator and Rizzo. They are sweet boys, but they are overall a committed couple and None of us wants the confusing headache of trying to make a threesome work longterm.

Wolves.

My twin 9mm handguns, and my daddy's mini Concussion Beam Transmitter.
Questionnaire #3 - Background
Tell us about...
1. Your place of birth.
I was born in New York City. The busiest, toughest, coolest place on earth.
2. Your childhood.
Rather rough, but I don't let that scar me. It's not like I'm gonna go put on a bat-suit and fight crime for the rest of my life or anything.
3. Your parents.
My mother was... less than perfect. She now resides in the Crandall Asylum for the criminally insane. Ironically enough, my father, a former supervillain known as Doctor Macabre, DOESN'T. He's still out on the prowl somewhere. Sure, he may be "evil", but he's never once forgetten my birthday or skipped sending me a Christmas present. Nor bad for a man who once tried to destroy Pittsburgh with a giant disco ball.
4. Your siblings.
I have and older brother, Seth, a twin brother, Milo and a twin sister, Macy. I also have a younger brother, Jay. We call him Gonzo.
(Yes, I suffer from "Sorta Middle Child Syndrome". What of it?)
Seth is a jackass, but I love him. He's a Republican and doesn't approve of my sexuality or my lifestyle. Mostly I ignore him. Milo and I do the "Twin Thing", where we each generally can tell when the other is in trouble, or pain, even over great distances. Macy and I are not so close, oddly enough. I haven't heard from her in a few years. I know in my heart that she's alive and alright, but that's about all. We may lose touch from time to time, but we always cross paths again. My little brother, Gonzo is a free spirit. I never know what he's gonna do next.
5. Your (current) home.
I live in an apartment on the outskirts of downtown Nottingham with 2 roommates, Ginger and Krystal. it's a small apartment, but we make do.
6. Your favourite "hang out".
Hallowed Grounds Coffee Shop in downtown Nottingham, which caters to the graphic arts crowd, the local punks and small business owners getting their early start.
Questionnaire #4 - Skills
1. Can you read?
Well DUH!
2. Can you write?
Once again, "DUH".
3. Can you sing?
Yes indeedy! I can belt out a tune that will make you weep with joy.
4. Can you play an instrument?
Several. My main instrument is the guitar, but I also play bass, drums and triangle. Yes, I said triangle.
5. What languages do you speak?
English and Xarvan. Xarvan is an alien language taught to me by two aliens called Roz and Thraxie when they were stuck on earth and living in Nottingham.
6. What weapons can you use?
I am a decent shot with my 9 millies. My dad has an arsenal of home-made superweaponry that I wasn't allowed to touch when I was younger, but that really didn't stop me. I am a good archer when not under fire, and I have practiced with the bo staff a few times.
Questionnaire #5 - Secrets
1. Are you good at keeping secrets about yourself?
Yes. (snicker)
2. What is your best kept secret?
The one I'm not gonna tell you.

4. Are you good at keeping secrets about others?
No, not really. *s*
5. What secret about someone else have you kept and wish you hadn't?
My friend, Barry once said that he wished he was never born and was thinking about killing himself. I overheard him and confronted him about it. He reassured me that he was just blowing off steam and made me promise not to tell his family that he'd said it. I kept the secret. One month later, he killed himself by jumping from his 12th floor apartment.
6. What secret about someone else have you not kept and wish you had?
I told my ex boyfriend, Alan that his new girl (the one he dumped me for) was pregnant. He married her. Turns out she was pregnant by another guy (Whom she was cheating on Alan with throughout their marriage).
Alan was a dick, but he really didn't deserve to be stuck with that cow for so long.
