Myung: Horror movies are the best, hands down.

Tara: I don’t know, I like k-dramas.

Jae: Romcoms~! *grins at Jake * And I would love to swim with dolphins!

Sunni: Can you even swim?

Jae: :unamused: No. Fight me.

Joonie: I think manatees sound cool... What’s the most awkward way to give an order at a drive thru window?

@Freemints30 @kmlangleyauthor

Jake: I guess I like action and fantasy? I don’t mind rom-coms, either. I’m really not too picky about it. Except horror. That’s where I draw the line. I don’t need any more nightmares.

Damien: I’ll literally fall asleep to any movie. Even horror. I’ll make it through some TV shows, though.

Jake: Oh! Remember that guy that made videos of dressing up weird and going through drive-thrus? Probably in the Vine era... Dude made a costume that looked exactly like the seat of his car so it looked like there was no driver? And he ordered? And everyone was confused? And one was with a skeleton? Freaked everyone out? That’s my answer. And I’m gonna have to do a YouTube deep dive to find these videos now...

Damien: I literally have no idea what you’re talking about. But I think singing the order would be the most awkward. I mean, what if they asked you to repeat yourself. Do you sing it again...? *ponders life's deepest questions *

Jake: Hmm. If you could only wear two colors for the rest of your life, which two colors would you choose and why?

(Bringing in my novel characters Aina and Sera https://tapas.io/series/End-of-All-Things)

Aina: Hello everyone, sorry we're late!

Sera: We are?

Aina: You'd know if you bothered with a timepiece.

Sera: If you say so.

Aina: I do. Right, anyway, uh... Two colours... Blue and... grey I think.

Sera: Not purple, had enough of that.

Aian: But that's not the... *sigh* Alright then. What's your favourite fact from the history of your world. Can be anything!

Damien: Hi, Aina. Hi, Sera. It’s been a while.

Jake: That’s a good question... and I think I know my answer... but I’m not really allowed to say it. *glances around the room guiltily * Sorry. Pretty much signed an NDA.

Damien: *staring hard * You’re going to tell me later, right?

Jake: *sliding down in his chair * *definitely not deflecting * So, what’s wrong with purple? I think I’m way behind right now. Blue and grey is kind of my go-to color combo, too. It works well for everything.

Damien: I think my favorite fact is... how historians sometimes struggle to figure out these super normal things from the past because people didn’t write them down. Because they were so normal. It just fascinates me how that can happen. Like not being able to accurately put certain towns on maps because no one ever mentioned it’s location. Because everyone knew.

Jake: Ooh, loopholes to rules! That’s a random fact I like. *sweats nervously * I swear I’m not even the rebellious type. Umm, what’s a book you would recommend, past, present, or future? I’d recommend “Artemis” by Andy Weir.

Saburou: “Morning routine, huh? Well that’s easy!”

Saburou: “I keep all my stuff on me—hairbrush, toothbrush, the works.”

Joany: “Why do you keep it on your person? Don’t you had a place to stay?”

Saburou: “Well, that way I don’t have to go looking for my things. What’s the point of pocket dimensions if you can’t put them to use, right?”

Yui: (holds out her phone)

Saburou: “Why do you do that anyways?”

Yui:

Saburou: “Use your phone like that. Can you actually not talk?”

Yui: (gives Saburou a unimpressed look with the one eye that isn’t obscured by her hair)

Saburou: “I honestly thought the bandages were for cosplay or something.”

Yui: (puts her head in the hand not holding the phone)

Saburou: “Ehehehe...”

Joany: “We should probably finish this up before this becomes a wall of text.”

Yui:

Joany: “In the morning I wake up, take a cold shower, brush and dry my hair, put on my uniform, and go out to eat breakfast with my parents.”

Saburou: “Wow, we’re boring. Also, I’m getting this weird feeling that there should be more people here.”

Yui:

Saburou: “I guess that makes sense?”

Joany: “Well, that about wraps things up! Thanks for reading about us magical girls!”

Saburou: “And boy!”

@lunagraves714

Gunhild: Morning routine? Well, I get up, have some tea and toast, take a shower, get my clothes on, and then I pretend I'm not secretly a supernatural agent of asgard.
Baldr: I fling my windows open, and feed the birdies on my windowsill! They all sing for me, and they make me coffee, and then I drink it with my lovely family!
Loki: gagging noises What are you, a disney princess?
Thor and sif: Er... we get woken up at 5am by magni and modi, who want to watch tv. Once we've put it on, we go back to bed, only for Thrudd to come in, asking where her socks are. Then, once we finally get up, we have some coffee, while sorting out 4 godlings. And then Fjalfi comes in with our mail, and proceeds to eat all the peanut butter.
Loki: Bold of you to assume I have a morning routine. I just roll out of bed looking this good!
Gunhild: As for our question to you... what's your most embarrasing experience?
https://tapas.io/series/Realmwalker-Saga-of-Frost

Myung: I already wear two colors—black and dark blue.

Joonie: Do patterns count as more than one color...?

Tara: *snickers at Joonie’s bewilderment before looking over at Aian Oh! A mountain lion’s roar can be heard three miles away!

Myung: *gives her a what-are-you-talking-about look * I’ve never seen a mountain lion before. Ever.

Tara: Well, I'd hope not since you can hear it coming.

Sunni: Let’s keep this ball rolling. Books to recommend—hmm, that’s a hard one. I think I’d recommend some classics like Dracula and Sherlock Holmes.

Jae: He likes old stuff that was written when he was a child.

Sunni: *turns to Jae *

Tara: *oblivious to the two bickering idols * *waves at Saburou, Joany, and Yui Thanks for sharing! :smile: Your routines sound lovely~!

Sang: *perks up at Gunhild’s question * Most embarrassing experience, you say? Hard to choose just one...Tara embarrasses us a lot. *high-fives Myung *

Tara: I hate you~. :smile:

Sang: If I had to pick, I’d say that time she botched an order of coffee in Korean so bad that the barista just gave her hot water and a translation dictionary.

IDOLZ7: *snicker at the memory, even though some members tried to hold in their laughter *

Tara: Whatever! My question is what’s the most exciting thing about your day? What gets you out of bed?

Myung: That’s two questions.

Tara: I am literally this close to fighting you right now.

@kmlangleyauthor @BlunderingAlbatross @sayonaracyanide @Stargazer31

Aina: Good to see you lads, too.

Sera: Aye. The purple thing just has too many negative associations now. Something good turned bad, savvy?

Aina: Aye, that about sums it up... *cough* Anyhow, my favourite book is probably... oh gods, what a question... hmm... 'Foxhunt' by Sundberg.

Sera: As for what gets us out of bed... Too much shit to do in a day to be a wastrel.

Aina: Language!

Sera: Right, "stuff".

Aina: Better. But I agree with that. Everyone has a place and a job in the running of a little world afloat, there's always something that needs doing! Got a question?

Sera: Aye, love. Have any of you ever... been shot?

Myung: *raises his hand * Unfortunately, I seem to be a bit of a bullet magnet, but that’s a story for another day. Going off of that, have you ever broken a bone, and if so, which one or ones?

Sera: *cackles* You could fill a magazine with the amount of times we've been shot between us!

Aina: *grimaces*

Sera: Right, bones *snort* Broken me arms and legs once each, at different times mind, and a few of my fingers. Not broken anything on my face ever!

Aina: Thank the gods...

Sera: Ha! Yes indeed.

Aina: This one goes to anyone: How many siblings do you have and do you get on with them?

Sera: Two questions.

Aina: Shh.

Sang: Hmm, I have a little sister, but it's been too long since I last saw her.

Myung: I have a brother--we don't get along. It's a long story...

Sang: How long can it be? "I hate him." See? It's just three words.

Myung: *flips him the bird *

Min-Soo: *hides Myung's offensive gesture behind a clipboard * We don't get a lot of free time with our families, and some of us have been in this business for years and years.

Jae: What Min-Soo means is that we started as trainees when we were younger and had to stay in dorms. We only saw our families every...what's that phrase again?

Tara: Once in a blue moon.

Jae: Right! That! Uh...if you upset someone, how would you make it up to them?

(I don't know where to jump in, so I'll begin at the start)

What's your morning routine?

Mavus, infinite good-boy, clears his throat. "I like to wake up at dawn --"

"Uuggghhhhh," would interupt his brother Baccus, who still has sunglasses on, slouched in the chair, definitely hungover and taking a long pull on a questionable cigarette. The cup of Starbucks coffee in his hands 100% is not coffee. "Jeez-us, you're predictable."

Mavus would fluff his impeccable suit. "I wasn't aware you knew what a morning was."

Baccus takes a long drag. He leans on his arm and waves the hand with the cigarette in it. "Go on, bore us to death."

"I wake up at dawn and---"

"Never mind, no. I value my life too much." Baccus leans forward. "If I knew what a morning was, I'd make myself a hot toddy and ---"

"I swear, Baccus, if you mention your penis."

"I wasn't, no, but now that you bring it up."

Goldie, queen of everything and watching the brothers squabble, laughs. She lifts a coffee and turns to the audience. "Wake up to the sounds of my chef and screams of my enemies."

They go silent and look to her.

Still not paying attention, because she noticed a flower growing in the corner, Ophelia lifts her head. "Oh, hey guys, what's happening?"

Baccus turns to her. "Your Fairy MobMother is a ---"

"Careful," Goldie would hiss.

"Brilliant and wonderful woman." Baccus would cross his legs and lay his arms defensively over his lap. Long, nerverous pull.

Goldie smirks and looked to the host, Mavus has mixed emotions about this, but still arches an eyebrow. "Next question?"

The sound of a cannon blast sends a shock through the room, followed by shouting and blasts of fire. A goat baas, and several women storm the stage with a dark-skinned man and a bipedal creature that looked like some sort of sea folk. A crimson-haired beauty takes the lead, wielding a wand in her hand and a cutlass in the other

????: Alright everyone, listen up!

?????: Captain...

????: This stage here is now the property of The Crimson Tempest! I want all of your gold and jewelry in Takir's bag, and all your raunchiest books in my hand, now!

?????: Captain...

????: And if you don't, I'll have Brun here rip your-

?????: CAPTAIN!

????: What the F*** do you want Cheri?!

Cheri: This is a family program. We're here to answer questions, remember?

A mountain of a woman steps forward, her name is Brun

Brun: Oh, I love answering questions! What question is first?

A blue-haired maiden answers - Arya's Twin. She is Elra, the co-captain of The Crimson Tempest

Elra: I believe someone asked what you do if you upset someone. While she answers, the rest of you can still give us all of your gold.

Cheri: Captain, no.

Elra: Captain, yes.

Brun: Oh! When I make a friend very upset, I wrap my arms tight around them, and give them a tight hug of affection to make them feel all better!

Cheri: and the last time she did that... she broke Erik's ribs.

Brun: A strong hug is a good hug.

Cheri: Yeah... sure. * Deep Breath * Alright, so-

Arya: So how do you f***ers feel about getting robbed? And why the s*** can't I say f***, anyway?

Myung: *looks around, slightly bewildered by what all was going on * Sang, did you confuse pirates for pilates again?

Sang: The “l” and the “r” are very tricky to master. But no, they must’ve just smelled my incredible wealth instead.

Myung: If you’re so rich, why don’t you own any shirts?!

Sang: IT’S CALLED FREEDOM.

Sunni: *checks his watch and then sighs, putting on a brave face before smiling at Mavus * If you could only see in one color for the rest of your life, what would it be and why?

Tara: *rests her chin on the palm of her hand, elbow against the table as she looked up at Arya * Honestly? Getting robbed would be close to the least interesting thing to have ever happened to me.

Sang: She’s kind of the Queen of Bad Luck around here.

@blackorchid @hippieghost

(I ran out of likes :sob:)

Arya: Well you're about to have a calm morning then! Brun, rob her!

Brun: But boss... she is pretty lady.

Arya: God d***** Brun. * facepalms * Fine. Cheri, rob her.

Cheri: * sighs * Can I get a please?

Arya: Oh not this s*** again.

Cheri: I'm just saying, Cap. A little appreciation goes a long way.

Arya: Fine. I'd appreciate if you'd hurry up and rob her!

Cheri: Can't.

Arya: Why the hell not?!

Cheri: Brun's trying to seduce her.

Brun: Miss Tara... do you like long walks on the beach and big women with many muscles?

@lunagraves714

(Also gonna start at the...start)

What's your morning routine?

Ira: holding her cup of double shot espresso, sunglasses on I hate mornings.

Tristan: walks over and sits next to her on the large leather couch with wooden arms and legs that have turquoise filling in the 'cracks' I don't know. grins we usually have a lot of fun in the mornings-

Ira: grabs his hair and pulls his head down to her lap, sharply gripping the locks in her metal fingers shut up

Tristan: winces and whines before nuzzling in her lap...I consider this a win.

Ira: rolls her eyes and tries not to smile, sipping her espresso We work out. Then eat.

Tristan: Sweetie don't give a boring answer...The people must know.

Ira: closes her eyes and twirls his hair in her fingers...We spar or do strength training.

Tristan: We also do naked greco-roman wrestli-

Ira: grips his hair and digs her knuckles against the side of his head SHUT. UP.

Tristan: Ow ow ow...laughs I'm being honest though. smiles and murmurs huskily I try to pin you down, my chest pressing your back against the bed- er..mat...

Ira: eye twitch, turning red...You are asking for it.

Tristan: your hot breath coming out in pants, sweat dripping from my face to yours before you nuzzles her thighs wrap your legs around my waist and pin me down with your hips-

Ira: Then I repeatedly punch your face since you KEEP TALKING...snarls

Tristan: Ohhh I love it when you get violent, Sweetie

Ira: shoves him off of her lap and stands Now I need whiskey. pauses They also asked about breakfast. Make me my favorite.

Tristan: looks up at him, still smiling I'll be sure to put on my best apron raises an eyebrow and nothing else.

Ira: STOP.

Wrath and Lust from-

Tara: *smiles a tiny bit at Brun’s question * Of course I do.

Sunni: *chokes on the water he was sipping *

Sang: *laughing at Sunni’s reaction * I can’t...! I can’t breathe...! Do it again, do it again! *calms down when he heard Tristan, suddenly curious * Ooh~! Tell me more about this “workout”~...

Jae: You have serious boundary issues.

Sang: *shrugs * Don't we all? So, my question is how strong are all of you? Or fit?

Sunni: What kind of question is that?

Sang: The kind that lets me know if someone could handle all this. *gestures to himself *

Jae: :unamused: That’s a lot of stupid in one body.

@hippieghost @CodeMonkeyArts

Ira: pours whiskey into the rest of her espresso before raising an eyebrow at Sang, a slight smirk Please. I handle anything. The question is flips her hair can you survive me?

Tristan: No need to exude boss bitch energy. Even though I LOVE it. *notices Goldie and then points to Ira, then back to **Goldie*** I don't think my pants can handle this. :eggplant:

Ira: F***ing pervert. takes a big gulp I'm strong, and fit.:smug_01:

Tristan: And sexy! winks granted so am I. We also go multiple rounds. sees a glare and teeth bared from Ira and ahems then we go for coffee and croissants.

Ira: perks ahhh chocolate croissants are my favorite :heart_02:

Tristan: I do have a pretty basic question. Coffee or tea?

Ira: interjects coffee is the only answer.

Tristan: Coffee is so bitter. Gentlemen prefer tea :sip:

@lunagraves714 @hippieghost @blackorchid

Jake: *raising an eyebrow * I’d rather not get robbed today, thank you very much. Not like I have a lot to take. Most expensive thing I have is my textbooks. *rolls his eyes *

Damien: Hey, Ira, Tristan. *grins * I like your morning “workout” routine.

Jake: *sliding down in his chair * Don’t start... This. This would be on my list of embarrassing experiences...

Damien: *laughing * I’m sorry, babe. I’ll get you your favorite coffee after this.
*whispering * I guess that’s what I do when I upset him.

Jake: *mumbling * That really shouldn’t work so well. *glances around the room * I’ve never been shot but I’ve had my fair share of broken bones. And Damien will get worked up if we sit on this topic too long, so siblings! I have an older sister who’s... cool... I guess. And a younger brother. He’s an asshole.

Damien: ...he really is. I have two younger sisters and they’re really sweet—

Jake: You’re really going to call Andy sweet after our last visit?

Damien: Fine. Lillian is sweet and Andy likes causing problems. But I miss them some days, okay? And, Sunni, I also like reading classics. I need to reread Dracula one of these days.

Jake: *poking Damien’s cheek * The most exciting part of my day is waking up to your face.

Damien: Aww! Really?

Jake: I mean, probably coffee, but, yeah, the other thing sounds better. I’d probably choose to see... blue? Or green? I don’t know. I like those colors. I didn’t really think through this answer more than that.

Damien: Okay! My turn for a question! If you had a no-limits credit card for a day, what would you do?

@Stargazer31 @BlunderingAlbatross @lunagraves714 @CodeMonkeyArts

Brun: Wonderful! * lifts Tara in her massive arms * I will carry you to the nearest beach when talk is over!

Cheri: Well, while they're... having fun. I'll answer. I'm about average in strength for a sailor. I'm strong enough to fight and hold the riggings, but I'm by no means the strongest.

Takir: This is true. I have opened many pickle jars for my lovely sister, and rescued her with my fishing line once upon a time.

Arya: I don't know though, Ghal's probably got you beat Takir. That Undarian's as strong as a shark!

Ghal: Especially when my husband gets me goin'! Ha! But Brun's stronger than all of us. Her last deadlift was over five-hundred kilos!

Cheri: holy shit, really?

Elra: Five-hundred Kilos is easy. I can do that with my mind.

Elra focuses on the table in front of them, and after a moment it begins to rise from the ground

Arya: Show off...

Elra: In response to the other question, I much prefer tea.

Cheri: Not me, I need a strong coffee to deal with this bullshit

Arya: shut up. You love us

Cheri: * looks to Sang * So my question for stupid over here is, what makes you think anyone wants to handle you in the first place? Also... * looks to Damien * what the hell is a credit card?
