OC Interview Meme Thingy: Dailia
11 years ago
1. What is your name?
Oh, hello! I'm Dailia.
2. Do you know why you were named that?
I really couldn't tell you why my parent's named me that. I like it though. It suits me, you know?
3. Single or taken?
It's complicated. Let's just say I've got my eyes on someone in particular
4. Have any abilities or powers?
Haha, powers? As in supernatural abilities? I wish I did. But seriously, I do have some talents. I'm very mechanically minded. I invent new toys and doodads. I'm also particularly good at working with very small pieces, though I'd chalk that up to Mahkur physiology rather than any special talent on my part.
5. Stop being a Mary Sue!
Wait, what's that supposed to mean? You're not trying to insult me are you? I might be smaller than you, but you know how nasty Mahkur can get... don't you?
6. What's your eye color?
My eyes are a golden brown color. I didn't know that for the longest time. Just before my mom died, she got her paws on a mirror and let me play with it a little. I mostly just looked at myself in it. I'd never seen myself so clearly before! Streams only reflect so well.
7. How about hair color?
My hair is the same color as my coat - a sort of intermediate brown. Not too dark, not too light. Perfect camouflage for the forest!
8. Have you any family members?
None living that I know of. Mom and Dad did their best to keep me in the dark about our family history back in the Deep Forests before they passed. That's probably for the best. Little good comes from that place.
9. Oh? How about pets?
Naw, no pets. The idea is nice, but I think it'd be too much of a hassle in practice.
10. That's cool, I guess. Now tell me something you don't like.
Oh, I hate when people antagonize Maltir for spending time with me. It's not so much of an issue with our neighbors as it is with folks coming to buy from our shop... that's a bit ironic when you think about it. I know that tons of people hate the Mahkur, and that it's not completely unfounded, but that's no reason to pick on Maltir. Personally, I enjoy his company.
11. Do you have any activities/hobbies that you like to do?
Ha! My hobby is my work! Nearly everything I do revolves around tinkering, inventing, and building new things. It's amazing how much room for improvement and development there is in everyday life. Simple new devices could make things so much easier. Imagine it: Warm baths, fresh water pumped directly to your home, heat from a single fireplace circulated throughout the home. But anyway, activities! I suppose I do like to get outside from time to time. People tend to think I'm a bit odd because I love to just run around any which way. Usually, I end up chasing Maltir. That big oaf isn't much of a challenge to catch. You know what, we should probably move to the next question before I talk you to death!
12. Have you ever hurt anyone in any way before?
Hmm... No, not that I remember. I mean, I punch and poke at Maltir a lot, but I sincerely doubt that it hurts him.
13. Ever… killed anyone before?
Oh, definitely not. And while I don't plan to, I will if I need to. It's just a fact of life. The world is a beautiful place, but there are dangers too. I'm just glad I'm not stuck back in the Deep Forests... That's a different story entirely.
14. What kind of animal are you?
I really hope that wasn't an attempt at a slur... Anyway, I've already told you that I'm a Mahkur. You know, short, thin, little pointy ears with a little pointy face? The usual stereotypes and all.
15. Name your worst habits.
My neighbors say I'm too direct and terse with people I don't know, and that it comes off as me being aggressive. I really just don't have the patience for useless banter. If you're going to say something say it!
16. Do you look up to anyone at all?
Well, my parents... Yeah, never mind. I guess Maltir is a sort of role model for me. He just seems so... unbreakable. Nothing sways him.
17. Are you gay, straight, or bisexual?
Huh? Wait, are you asking my sexual preferences? Well, I find men attractive. I guess there's that.
18. Do you go to school?
No, just the typical Sianese schooling: Learning from your parents, then by working odd jobs within your chosen path until you're an adult and can do your own thing.
19. Ever want to marry and have kids one day?
That would be... nice. Yes, I think I'd like that a lot.
20. Do you have fangirls/fanboys?
Do I have fans? Well, I don't know. Me and Maltir own one of the best known weapons and armor shops in the region, so I wouldn't be too terribly surprised if we did.
21. What are you most afraid of?
Two things really... First off, being somehow forced to live in the Deep Forests. There are so many horrible stories... My parents fled when I was very small, so I have no memory of it myself, but I always got the impression that they despised it. The second would be losing Maltir. I mean, not just him dying, but you know... Yeah, forget I said anything about that.
22. What do you usually wear?
Whatever is comfortable and durable! It's fun trying to have clothes made for me since my body type is so different from the Fahlir women around here. Usually typical Fahlir style works just fine. Although, I must admit that I like the S'ahl dresses... They're so light and floaty, and they're always so brightly colored, like a ray of warm sunshine that you can wear... I don't dress up often though. It's not practical.
23. What's one food that tempts you?
Oh, I love anything with lots of spices. Plain food is alright, but it really takes a good selection of spices to make a meal!
24. Am I annoying you?
Not particularly, no.
25. Well, it's still not over!
Well, alright then. I kinda figured it wasn't...
26. What class are you (low class, middle class, high class)?
Oh, I don't know really. I guess I live pretty well, especially compared to most Mahkur. It's not something I think about often.
27. How many friends do you have?
I try to make friends with whoever happens to be around, really! I'm friendly with most of the town.
28. What are your thoughts on pie?
Meat pie? It's a convenient dish for travelers.
30. Favorite drink?
In all honesty, nothing beats fresh water straight from the springs. It's so cold and fresh... I know Maltir would vouch for that Marohl Liquor, but I don't like the stuff. I don't feel like I'm myself when I drink it, and that really bothers me. Something about not being in control of myself, I guess.
31. What's your favorite place?
Definitely my workshop! I call it the tinker room. I know it annoys some people, but I really don't care.
32. Are you interested in anyone~?
Ah...hehe. Well, yes. Maltir. Who else, right? I want to just tell him so badly... I've tried hinting, but he's just so clueless. I don't get it! It's so frustrating, you have no idea. You really, really don't.
33. That was a stupid question.
It's okay, don't worry about it.
34. Would you rather swim in a lake or the ocean?
I like swimming in the streams and rivers up here, particularly if it's at the base of a waterfall!
35. What's your type?
Oh, men? I'm really not sure. I guess someone who's not going to make a big fuss over me being Mahkur, and who would stand by me.
36. Any fetishes?
Okay, that's way to personal. How about I don't answer that one.
37. Seme or uke?
What? I'm not even going to try to guess what that means.
38. Camping or indoors?
Ah, probably just stay inside. I love being outside, don't get me wrong, but... my workshop is inside...
Well, thanks for stopping by I guess. The conversation was interesting if nothing else.
