uhhuh_feelgood:

1. Which is awesomer, ninjas or pirates? Why?
Oh honey, the mere fact that you have to ask points out that you don't know me *nearly* well enough. Pirates ALL THE WAY! Yes, I am a stageninja when it comes to shows (Though I think I prefer to work on the catwalks) but Pirates are the most wonderful thing in the world! Plus, dressing like a pirate is a major piller of my religion.

2. You have just become ruler of the world, whats the first thing that you change? It's a perfect world now, so really, anything you say goes!
*laughs evilly*

First thing I change? Equal civil human rights for all, where human is defined as over the age of eighteen or so. At that point, you can drink, vote (Well, no, voting would become kinda extraneous) have sex with or do basically whatever you want that's non-illeagal with any other person who's over the age of consent who wants to do it with you.

Second thing I'd change would be to make both abortions and birth control *fully* leagal, and readily avaliable to anyone who needs them.

3. If you had your way, and didn't have to worry about money or laws or anything, where would you end up? Describe things like your dream house, dream family (including spouse) and dream job.
Oooo, I like this question! If it all worked out ideally, I would be a schoolteacher, probably high school english or special education, who writes fabulous wonderful best selling books on the side, and is living in Bawston! (Well, probably Boston. There's a few other places I've considered, but they tend to be on the wrong continent) I'd be happily embroiled in whichever relationships had struck my fancy at the time, and life would be excellent.

My house would also be A) Very awesome and B) full of books. I can't really tell you more without having to go and dig up those blueprints I've drawn for future world-ruling.

4. What is one thing you want to leave the world with when you leave it?
I want to leave the world with comfort. I want my books to be someones security blanket, the pages they dive into when the real world is getting to be too much to cope with. I want to write essays that actually make people think about themselves and the world around them, and actually try and change that. And I want to leave the world a more open and loving place then when I came into it.

5. What is your opinion on religion in general, and mine, specifically?

By yours specifically, do you mean Christianity or Mica's-take-on-Christianity?

In general, I think religion is a beautifully designed concept, with a few flaws in actually acting it out. I am totally in awe of people who have that sort of complete faith that I've never been able to manage, and who can trust themselves to their God, Goddess, or gods.

I also believe that the core tenants of religion can be simmered down to a non-religious philosophy, to wit, "Be good"

When it comes to Christianity, I believe in a peaceful and merciful god, not a vengeful one. I don't believe that you're going to hell if you're a good person just because you don't believe in any specific gods. I think that the God of most people's beliefs isn't dick enough to do that.

When it come's to your personal version of Christianity, I say go for it. You're still the same wonderful Mica as before, you just have a deeper faith, and I totally admire you for that. You're not the kind of Christian who goes around telling people that they *have* to join your religion or they'll go to hell, and you're not the kind who trys to force her religion onto other people. I can really admire that.

As for me, I believe in either reincarnation or total obliteration after death as a theroy (Reincarnation is the only real heaven -a place where everything's perfect would get screamingly boring really really fast) and as for religion, I'm a semi-practising Pastafarian. Pirates for the wins!

Whew! You ask great questions Mica. Good job.

thorog:

1. What sort of pet would you have if you had to get one, and why?
I'm going to ignore Hyde for the moment, and say definently a snake. They're cool, they eat things I don't like, they freak people out (Sorry chickenhat) and snake scales are incredibly cool feeling.

After a snake I'd have to say none. I'm not a huge animal person. I may very well wind up with a cat, but it'd be an arrangement of convinience rather then "Kitty!!" Dog's are pretty much right out, I like big dogs that belong to other people, but I'm *far* too lazy to own and properly excersize/clean up after one of my own.

2. What should the punishment for bad fanfic be?
Variable. Bad Harry Potter fanfic, for instance, has come to be fully expected at this point, and should only be punished with, say, dismemberment by a hippogriff. Bad, say, The Pirates Mixed Up Voyage fanfiction should be punished with every single item on Noah Black's hitlist (ask Malice) at the same time.

If I ever get published with something that's ficable, and people write bad fanfic based on that, I think that I should get my revenge by seeking them out and setting their computer on fire. And breaking their hands so that they can NEVER WRITE AGAIN. Oh yeah, and removing their voiceboxes so that they can't even tell others of their ideas.

...Shisus, I'm a vindicitive little bitch, aren't I?

3. What is the one thing (personal, I won't accept "You're all the way over in New Zealand!") about me that annoys you the most? (go the recycle!)
For silly, it's the fact that you will swoop in, leave hugs, and swoop off to lunch or something. Aig. If I want to talk to you it means I want to *talk* to you damnit, and it's really hard to have conversations with people who aren't there.

For more serious, I think it would have to be the fact that you write better then I do. You're supposed to be a chem major, damnit! Science majors are not supposed to write brilliant lovelorn essays, for christs sakes!! *shakes fist*

Ok, that one's also somewhat silly. Sue me.

4. If there was a movie made about your school, which sterotypical teen-high-school-movie role would you land? Which sterotypical role would you want to land? (OK, so that's two)
Don't worry about asking two, I've been doing it with everyone. Multiquestions are fun!

I would land the role of the best friend. You know the one you've got the beautiful bodacious cheerleader type, and then you have her plainer, smarter best friend who has much less expirience with boys and whatnot. Either that, or I would be the geeks love interest. :D

If we're talking Breakfast Club stereotypes, well, first, I can send you a four page essay on that one since I had to write it for AdComp last year. But boiled down, I think I'd be most likely to be either the basket case or the dork.

I would want to be the geek-dork-nerd type. Best friend is a pain in the ass of the role, as you inevitably wind up with the boystar and his sidekick, who tends to be a pain in the arse at times, and the best friend and the sidekick inevitably wind up together. I don't believe in winding up together.

I'd be very interested to see what a movie of my life would be at all like. Kinda depends on how straightforward it was...

5. You go on to you lead your life as a schoolteacher - you end up getting a BA in English literature and also a diploma in teaching. One night, you're poring over a journal article on death and rebirth in Beowulf when something strikes you - something profound and wise. You grab a pencil and write it in the margin of the nearest object to you - the journal. You put the journal back on the shelf and make a note to check it the next day and write down what you just thought up. The next morning, however, the thought has fled your mind and despite your searching through the catalogues, you can't even find an article on Beowulf in that journal. What was the note you wrote in the margin?
Damned it I know, I can't find the fucking journal!

Knowing me, it was something incredibly witty and funny that I could use as a brilliant plotline. Either that, or it was the perfect way to say whatever it was I was trying to say.

...Maybe it was just the question. I've never been completely satisfied with "What do you get when you multiply six by nine."

MOOP!
