1. What song is currently your favourite, and why?
2. Do you have any middle names? Do you like them? If you don't, which middle names would you choose for yourself?
3. Emoticons, yea or nay?
4. If you were a superhero, which power do you think you'd have? Not which one you *want*, just the one you think you'd get.
5. Which icon of yours is your favourite? Why?

1. Samson by Regina Spektor. As for why....hmm. I downloaded her entire discography on a whim since I liked a couple of her songs and this one just kind of snuck up on me. It's so beautiful, and kind of bittersweet? I've listened to it like 140 times between the two versions I have of it.

2. My middle name is Elena. And I don't really have strong feelings on it either way, since I don't really use it for anything. It's pretty though, and it gives my initials a nice vowel (KEK, so it can be pronounced aloud)

3. YAY :D (but in moderation! I don't really like it when people use them in every other sentence)

4. Ooooh good question. I guess it would probably be reading minds, since I am pretty perceptive of other people's feelings/emotions and because I sometimes feel like I am psychic (IDK).

5. Probably this one, just because Luna + Sailor Moon are awesome. (Named my cat after Luna nbd)

Posting it to my journal!!

Dude, I would totally be down with you living in America for a couple years, then the possibility of visiting would be increased exponentially. As long as you lived on the West Coast. East Coast, maybe not so much. But still! And I also have had uncomfortable empathy with Twilight, I did not think I was very horse-like but what do I know.

Also, COME AT ME, BRO.

When I have enough money/opportunities to do so I will be across the Atlantic getting all up in America's business. And then we could have hijinks! Twilight style, by-the-book hijinks :p

1. What do you unpack first when you arrive somewhere?
2. Do you like to have two seats to yourself on public transport or are you cool with people sitting next to you? If the former, what are your strategies to ensure maximum seatage?
3. You are allowed one baby animal as a pet. Which is it, and why?
4. What is your current desktop background? Why did you choose it?
5. You're having a dinner party! Invite five fictional characters and tell me why you did so.

That quote? Is kind of awesome. But then again, I feel that way about pretty much anything Wonder Woman-related, so I suppose that's not all that much of a surprise.

And I know nothing about Twilight Sparkle, but that expression is far too familiar for my comfort...

Come at me, bro! (Because, you know, you can never have too many random questions to answer...)

I am such a massive fan of Wonder Woman, it's ridiculous. I'm even writing my Master's dissertation on her. This seemed like a better idea at the beginning of the year!

Twilight Sparkle is the nerdiest unicorn! She's from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, which I highly recommend.

1. What song is currently worming its way around your brain?
2. You have to move to a fictional universe. Which one, and why?
3. Why did you choose your current username?
4. Which season is your favourite?
5. Do you have any verbal tics?

1. What's your favourite .gif?
2. Which fictional character would you want to be your friend?
3. Are you, like me, an habitual time waster? If yes, in what ways do you most like to waste your time?
4. If you had to show a stranger around where you live, where would you take them?
5. What are the essential things you have to take everywhere?

Oh my god, I am with you on whistling only for me what is even worse is humming. It hits that resonant level where it all just sounds like one note, like when your neighbors turn up their music loud enough so that all you can hear is the bass, and I don't care how famous the song you're humming is, NOBODY BUT YOU CAN TELL WHAT IT IS. SO JUST DON'T.

And now that I have successfully introduced myself with pet-peeve-rage:

COME AT ME BRO. SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU TRY TO HIT ME.

Augh, you speak the truth. WHY ARE YOU HUMMING IT SERVES NO PURPOUSE OTHER THAN MAKING ME WANT TO DRIVE A PENCIL INTO MY EAR.

1. What's the dealbreaker for you in a book? Bad writing, bad characterisation, terrible dialogue, mary-sue-ness- what will ALWAYS make you stop reading?
2. What's your guilty pleasure?
3. If you could only visit one internet site for the rest of your life, which would it be and why?
4. Is there anybody, real or fictional, who you consider a personal hero/ine?
5. Show me something that always makes you laugh.
