Horror-themed thingy ‘cause we’re in the horror-themed month WHATEVER WHO CARES

halloween: how would you deal with a home invasion? could you defend yourself?
As long as they don’t hurt Nate or Pepper, they can do whatever they want to me.

nightmare on elm street: do you have bad dreams? what’s your worst nightmare?
LIFE IS MY WORST NIGHTMARE
The frequency of nightmares is finally starting to go back down after spiking due to COVID-related panic. I still get some pretty graphic/terrifying ones, but they’re not nearly as frequent as they were there for a while. Nothing beats this one for how real and absolutely terrifying it felt.

child’s play: thoughts on dolls? do you collect anything?
Dolls don’t creep me out or anything, if we’re keeping with the theme here. I collect a lot of things, but not dolls.

friday the 13th: did you ever go to summer camp? did you enjoy it?
I never went to generic “summer camp” but I did go to camp in the summer if that counts, haha. I did Art Camp A LOT (and loved it), I did Sports Camp a few times (and complained about it), and I think I even did Bible Camp through St. Mary’s a few times too.

fright night: how easily do you fall in love?
Not very.

dracula: if you were a supernatural being, what would be your weakness?
Probably something stupid, haha. Like those aliens in “Signs” who have water as a weakness and then GO TO EARTH, A PLANET FULL OF WATER

a quiet place: have you ever made up your own language?
Not my own full language, but the coos had their own words and terms for certain things.

get out: what’s the most uncomfortable situation you’ve ever been in?
I haven’t been in too many, surprisingly. Probably that time when Rob and I went to his house (which he still shared with his ex) while said ex wasn’t there. He and I were just hanging out in his room but I left my purse on the sofa in the living room. Ex came home, saw the purse, and basically ran away. We had to spend the next six hours driving around the city (in my car) searching for her. NOPE NOPE NEVER AGAIN.

hereditary: do you have any ticks? can you control them?
No comment.

saw: what’s your biggest sin? is it redeemable?
I’m not telling! It’s one that I’m definitely not proud of, but the karmic forces of the universe have made sure I’ve paid for it.

it: thoughts on clowns?
I DO COCAINE!
(Metalocalypse reference)

train to busan: thoughts on public transport? how do you usually get about?
Public transportation is great! I used to ride the bus quite a bit here, but I actually haven’t been on a bus since COVID.

insidious: have you inherited anything from your parents? do you have a close relationship with them?
I haven’t inherited anything from them other than some physical/personality characteristics, haha. I have a great relationship with my mom and a good one with my dad.

sinister: is there a recording of you that you want to erase?
Probably.

silence of the lambs: is there anyone you envy? what would you change about yourself?
Man, don’t even get me started. There are SO MANY THINGS I would change.

paranormal activity: have you ever had an experience with ‘things that go bump in the night’?
Just that thing at Idler’s Rest that wanted to kill Rob and me. But I don’t think that was paranormal; I think that was a real person out there.

the shining: how’s your concentration? do you put your self into projects?
If I’m into something, I am INTO IT. My concentration can be really great. I can care 1000% if it’s something that matters to me.

carrie: how was high school for you? did you go to prom?
High school was…meh. 10th and 11th grade were really rough, but 12th grade was good. I did go to prom.

the exorcist: what are your thoughts on religion? do you follow one?
To each their own. I am not religious.

psycho: do you enjoy staying at hotels? any weird stories?
I LOVE staying at hotels, especially alone (though this has happened like once). I don’t have any super fun stories really, but I do remember that we used to rent a poolside room at the University Inn in Moscow for birthday parties when I was younger. Super fun!

nosferatu: what do you fear most?
The future. I think the world is screwed and will be screwed faster than most people think.

28 days later: what would you do if you woke up and there was nobody there?
Like…nobody at all in the whole world? I’d probably enjoy it for a bit because I’d FINALLY have some time to myself, haha, but then it would get pretty lonely.

scream: are you any good at solving problems? could you solve a crime?
I do not have a detective’s perspective. I am the least observant person ever, so I would be terrible at solving crimes.

poltergeist: do you watch television? what’s your favourite show?
We don’t currently have cable (just the six(?) basic channels), but I do like having the TV on in the background when I can. My favorite show is still Chicago Hope.

frankenstein: have you ever felt rejected by your peers? do you think you ‘fit in’ with other people?
Man, I have STORIES. I was the coolest of the cool in first grade because I was the co-founder of a game called “coos.” Everyone played it. Then coos started to become unpopular and so did I. Then I was kind of the “weird kid” after that.

night of the living dead: if you could, would you bring people back from the dead? who?
L E I B N I Z. Like…who else, really?

the omen: how do you feel about children? would you want any of your own?
I hate kids.

split: is there more than one side to you? do you hide parts of yourself from people?
I hide many things, yes.

pan’s labyrinth: do you have any siblings? are you the favourite?
No sibbies.

evil dead: have you ever woken something sinister?
I…don’t know?

the babadook: have you ever felt like you were being watched?
Every once and a while.

bird box: what would you do if you went blind? could you cope?
I’d have a really hard time. I’m sure I’d adapt, but it would be really, really difficult. How would I do my walks? How would I draw? Teach?

cabin in the woods: where do you spend your holidays? do your friends go with you?
I just go back to Moscow,  haha.

the purge: if all crime were legal for one night, what would you do?
JAYWALK THE SHIT OUT OF THINGS
