Character Questioning

1. Choose a few of your own characters. Five at the most.

2. Make them answer the following questions and have them interact.

3. Then tag five people.



Characters:

Pyron
Spike
Kimmy



A High School Freshman Journalist approaches the group with a survey...

1) What species are each of you?

Pyron: Hiya! I'm a little charmander!
Spike: Grrrooociiyyena (Poochyena)
Kimmy: Hee hee, I'm a mew.



2) Boy or Girl?

Pyron: I'm male.
Spike: *in Pokemon speech* "I'm a boy!!"
Kimmy: I'm female *giggle*

3) How old are you? (In human years)

Pyron: I'm approximately the equivalent of a 14-year-old in human year. Heh.
Spike: *In Pokemon speech* "Daddy, how old am I?"
Pyron: *Also in Pokemon speech* "Heh, you're about five, Spikey."
Spike: "Ohhh, ok"
Kimmy: Well I'm about the equivalent of a 12-year-old. *smiles*

4) What's your height?
Pyron: 3 ft tall *looks up at the interviewer, smiling*
Spike: Rrrrr? *cocks head*
Kimmy: Spike is about 1'8'', and I'm 2' tall. Bigger than the average Mew, I know. Hehe.

5) Are you a virgin?
Pyron: Of course, and I don't mind one bit
Spike: *cocks head again*
Pyron: Err, I think it's safe to say that Spike is indeed.
Kimmy: *grimaces* Certainly, I am. Isn't that a little personal, though?


6) Do you love Anyone?
Pyron: Well I'm not sure I've felt true love yet, but I have had crushes. Hehehe...
Spike: *In Pokemon speech* "I love Daddy!!" *smiles, tail wagging*
Pyron: *Smiles and pets Spike, awwing*
Kimmy: *Blushes and glances at Pyron, who is oblivious*

7) Do you hate Anyone?
Pyron: I don't hate anyone, but I have met my share of distasteful people... *frowns*
Spike: *Looks at Pyron* "What does" *in English* 'hate' *in Pokemon speech* "mean, Daddy?"
Pyron: "Heh, nevermind, Spike..."
Kimmy: No, of course not, hehe.

8) Have you killed anyone?

Pyron: Never. I'm no murderer.
Spike: *shakes head, blinking*
Kimmy: Oh HEAVENS, NO!

9) Do you have any Secrets?
Pyron: Well I would say my liking for feet, but that not really a secret anymore *blushes*
Spike: 'Seee-kret?"
Kimmy: Um...heh, no... *blushes*



10) What's your favorite food?
Pyron: Oh that's a tough one...hmmm....I guess lots of spaghetti!! *smirks*
Spike: "I like Oran Berries!!" *giggles, tail wagging*
Kimmy: Um, well...I don't really have a favorite food.



11) What do you do to relax?
Pyron: I like to take walks around the forest every morning to clear my head. *smiles*
Spike: "Aww, relaxing is boring. I like to play!!" *jumps up excitedly*
Kimmy: Hee hee, settle down, Spike. Knitting is something I like to do to help me relax. *giggles*


12) What season do you like best and why?
Pyron: I prefer the summer because it's so warm. It's perfect for a charmander like me! *smiles*
Spike: "I like the fall because I get to jump in the leaves my daddy piles up all the time!!"
Pyron: *sweatdrops*
Kimmy: Oh, I suppose the spring is my favorite because of all of the pretty flowers. *giggles*



13) Is there anything in your life you regret doing?
Pyron: Well a few things, yes...
Spike: Groo?
Kimmy: Oh...maybe a couple things...



14) What do you think your life expectancy is?
Pyron: I don't know..hopefully a long time so that I can be around my loved ones as long as possible. *smiles*
Spike: "Daddy, what does that mean?"
Pyron: Errr....
Kimmy: Maybe 70 years? I couldn't tell you, hee hee... *blushes*



15) How do you imagine your death to be?
Pyron: Hopefully it will be protecting a loved one, like my friends or little Spike here... *pets Spike's head gently*
Spike: *giggles at the pets, ignoring the question*
Kimmy: Oh dear...must we talk about death?



16) You are put to death for a crime you did not commit, what would your last words be?
Pyron: My friends, I love you all!!
Spike: "Daddy, I don't get this question..." *looks all confused*
Kimmy: Oh my, I honestly hope that never happens...but if it does....*under her breath* I love you, Pyron....
Pyron: Did you say something, Kimmy? *blinks*
Kimmy: N-no, nothing! Nothing at all! *blushes deeply*

17) If you'd have won the lottery, what would you do with the money?
Pyron: I'd use it to help those who REALLY need, because I certainly don't deserve it.
Spike: *curls up, losing interest due to confusion from the questions*
Kimmy: I'd likely do the same as Pyron, as I have no use for it.

18) If anyone came up with a nickname for you, which would it be?
Pyron: Heh...one that always makes me blush is CharChar. *blushes*
Spike: "Daddy calls me Spikey sometimes" *wags tail*
Kimmy: Ohh, I guess Kim...heh..

19) If you'd be fantastic at one sport, which would it be?
Pyron: Err...does video gaming count as a sport? *sweatdrops*
Kimmy: I don't think so, Pyron...*giggles*
Spike: "I like to play catch with Daddy!!"
Kimmy: I'm not really into sports much...hehehe...

20) And finally, Have any phobias you wish no one to know?
Pyron: Well.....*blushes* I'm afraid of heights.....and large bodies of water
Spike: "What's a" 'fo-beee-uh'?
Pyron: "It means what you are afraid of, Spike."
Spike: "Oh...I'm afraid of giant monsters that want to eat me..." *ears droop*
Pyron: "Aww, it's ok, Spike. I won't let that happen." *strokes the Poochyena's back*
Spike: *smiles, nuzzling Pyron's hand and licking it*
Kimmy: I'm sort of afraid of the dark...*blushes deeply, then under her breath* But Pyron's tail flame always leaves light for me...
Pyron: What?
Kimmy: Oh...nothing...hee hee...

All questions have been proofread by this lil char and fixed. ;)

Hey, everyone! ^^ Pyron, the lil char here! I know it's a couple days late, but better late than never, huh? ^^; Hehe, just hope everyone that celebreates the holiday had a wonderful Thanksgiving! ^_^ Mine was just great! I went out of town to visit some family and we had a great dinner together! =3 I just got back and I'm tired, but I have to do something small for class that's due at midning. D: But it's no big deal! :)

While I was out for the holiday I was thinking of everything I'm thankful for, including my life, family, and health. And I'm especially thankful to all the wonderful friends I have here! ^^

 BillyTheCat128 One of my first friends on DA, and also one of the greatest! :) You were one of the people that encouraged me to draw paw-related art! *giggles* You've helped me through so much and have been by my side through the toughest times. I really am thankful for all that you've done for me, buddy, be it art, help, or just plain and fun chatting. ^^ *hug*

 Sparky_the_chu Another one of my first friends here, and quite possibly the nicest chu I've ever met! =3 No matter how sad I may become, you're kindness always cheers me up! ^_^ Not to mention you have always been a role model in the macro art department! X3 Thanks for being my friend, Sparky! *hug*

 blackbeast13 Buddy, you already know how much you mean to me! But I feel I still need to say it! Not a day goes by that I don't thank the good Lord for having an awesome best friend like you! ^^ I know that we'll remain friends forever! :) *hug*

 Zephir Tiggy! ^^ I am so thankful to have a sweet and caring friend in you! Recently I have been feeling so down, but you helped me get back on my feet and carry on! You are, and always have been a great friend! *hug*

 HierroSkyborne Hehe, my favorite blue dragon! :) I am thankful for your playful nature and kindness towards me! ^^ I am also thankful for the comments you've given me and for the party drawing you did including my character. Hee hee ^_^ I'm really happy to know you, and am even happier that you are my friend! *hug*

 Lu123 And last, but certainly not least, one of my more recent friends. Though I only met you just this summer, I already feel like you are one of the best friends I have ever had! Meeting you is one of the best things that has ever happened to me, and I wouldn't give up that meeting for the world! :) Thanks for being such a kind and awesome friend! *hug*

And to all my other friends, I apologize if I didn't list you! But you mean a lot to me as well!! I'm so very happy to be among such great people, and am thankful to have you in my life! *hug* *hug* *hug*

Hehe, well, take care, everyone! ^^ And once again, Happy (belated) Thanksgiving!!!

I've been getting a few questions regarding whether I take requests. The answer: yes, I do, but not at the moment. I am too swamped with school work to even spend time on my own drawings. ^^; I hope you all understand.

I'll be sure to let everyone know when I am taking requests again! ^^ In the meantime, everyone just hang tight! Okay? :) Thanks!

As some of you may or may not have noticed, I have been gone for quite a long time. Let's see...a little over 2 years now? Wow, where did the time go? O_o

Now I'm sure many of you have been wondering about what happened to me? Well...in a nutshell, I decided to leave for personal reasons. It is very complicated and I'd rather not talk about it. However, I just wanted to let everyone that has been worrying about me to know that I am just fine. I am now attending university in my second year, and though it is difficult, I am managing. X3

For the record, I am not quite ready to make a full return to DA/FA just yet. Nevertheless, I want to clarify that I've never forgotten about my friends here. I care about all of you deeply ^^, and am touched by those of you that cared enough to send me messages in my absence. I greatly apologize for seemingly ignoring you like I have been. I've just been very reluctant about making a comeback. That being said, I'm not going to be completely active just yet, and as such will not respond to many messages or post new art. But I am still here. :3

I hope you all understand. Thank you for taking the time to read this! ^_^ And thank you very much for being by my side, my friends. I love you all! :) *hugs many times*

Take care, and God bless!! ^_^
