This guy at uni eating an apple. Urgh, made me want to punch the guy.
Jazz
A follow-up question: Is it just Serpentine that hates jazz, or also you?
Anyway.
What is it that draws you to travel? (To be clear, I don't question whether it's a good idea to travel; I love it myself. I'm curious about what the draw is for you, specifically.)
A Chinese restaurant with especially expensive food? (It tends to be on the cheap side here.)
What's the deal with the weird naga that follows you around, anyway? ()
What is your greatest strength?
What do you fear most?
3.x or 4e?
When the answer to a question is no but giving that answer would be uncomfortable, do you say no or ignore the question?
In a formal table setting, what is the function of the second fork from the left?
Do you post on other message boards?

Well, technically we're asking the questions, but since you asked, the posts in question are here, here, and here.

Partysan's What sounds and smells make you feel home/sheltered?
I'm not sure... That faint whiff of fur that houses with dogs have, maybe.
Wet rocks.
What colour do you like to see when waking up?
Uh... I guess my favourites would be nice - purple and blue-green.
Green and grey.
If you wanted to give a stranger a flower, would it be a beautiful one or one that smells nice?
Probably a beautiful one.
A beautiful one.
While looking at something disgusting, do you breathe in or out?
Hm... Out, I think.
In.
Would you rather hug a solid or a soft creature?
Soft. But I'd rather hug my late Gramma, who used to give such big hugs that my mum had to ask her to go easy on me cuz they hurt, and then by the time I was big enough to handle them she was too frail to give them
Solid - they can take more.
What is the least bad thing one could do that still earns your eternal hatred?
Eternal hatred? Animal abuse, probably.
Yeah, probably that. Or messing up my stream.
If you wake up screaming, what do you scream?
From what little experience I've had, it seems to be a softly shrieking sob.
That would be scary o.O
Would you rather be hugged while you cry or hug someone who cries?
Be hugged.
Hug. I'm a good hugger :3
Could you have sex with someone without kissing them?
Uh... If they really wanted to, I guess.
Okay... But only if I get to bite.
Which part of yourself do you fear the most?
My temper occasionally flares up for no apparent reason, and that worries me. For my own sake, though, my laziness - I'm afraid it'll ruin my life.
Why should I be scared of myself? I'm not gonna hurt me...
Would you combine hot green Thai curry with Guarana?
I'd try it, but neither of those things are really to my taste.
What's... both of those?
Would you rather look elegant or cute?
Depends. But I think I've already got cute, it'd be nice to have elegant for a change :/
Elegant.
If hypothetically you'd have lemon tart and very dark drinking chocolate, which book would you want to hear read to you while eating?
Traditionally, I tend to listen to Stephen King books on tape... So that. Or maybe The Hobbit.
The Rainbow Serpent.
And what kind of voice should do that?
For King, something male, warm and kinda soft but capable of intensity. For The Hobbit, probably a versatile female voice.
One with an aboriginal accent.
Fleeing something horrible, do you run up or down the stairs?
Down, and batten myself in.
I don't run, I slither...
Given fitting temperatures for each, would you rather sleep with a feather bed or a woolen blanket?
Not sure what a "feather bed" would be. Do you mean doona or quilt or bedcover? I'd rather a woolen doona... Of those two, I guess the feathers.
Feathers are nice.
Is a man squeeing cute or ridiculous?
Both!
What is this "squee"?
On a scale from -Pi to G64, how disturbing are my questions?
~meh.
Sasquatch.
mangosta71's Do you, in fact, have any cheese here at all?
Yes, but none you'd like.
Will you go quietly when they come for you?
Yes, but only to lull them into a false sense of security while I assess the situation to make my resistance more effective.
NEVAH!
What is your anti-zombie weapon of choice?
Huddling in a fetal position waiting to die? I'm not a fan of zombies... Something that lets me hide from them, maybe.
Tail-wollop!
Are you running to something, or from something?
To - teh futurez!
I'm not running. I'm enjoying my present.
What's the magic word?
a
ab
abr
abra
abrac
abraca
abracad
abracada
abracadab
abracadabr
abracadabra
Who needs words for magic?
Blue Ghost's How’s life at the moment?
In limbo, in all sorts of ways.
Too cold
Favorite color?
Purple.
Kingfisher blue.
Favorite fruit?
Hmmm... Can I just say "berries" (or rather "the fruits commonly considered berries") as a whole? Straw, blue, boysen, black, etc.
Not dragonfruit
Favorite ice cream?
I'm quite certain I haven't had it yet, but in the meanwhilst, an English Toffee in my high school town that had caramel and vanilla ice cream, little toffee balls, and swirls of this chocolate syrupy stuff.
Rainbow :3
What is your theme song?
Possibly "I Am A Scientist".
What is your alignment?
Lazy/inactive TN with goals of NG.
What is your Magic: The Gathering color?
Iunno. Is purple a thing?
What is the meaning of life?
To replicate my genetic material and ensure it keeps replicating as long as I'm able.
Less depressingly... To do your best to make the world a better place to live for everyone and everything who does or will live on it.
Warm days and a fully belly.
What are your thoughts on:
Love?
I don't believe in a One True Love - in fact, I find that concept extremely depressing. But I believe in multiple True Loves, people you can be happy with for the rest of your life. I'm also looking forward to falling in love again in the future.
I've heard stories about it. Seems to be a human thing... Friendship?
Distressingly fragile right now, it seems I've never been a "best friend" sort of a person, and I'm jealous of everyone who has friends they've grown up with.
It would be nice to have some... Freedom?
A concept twisted and abused by certain nations until it's completely unrecognisable as used by them. Nonetheless, an extremely important thing.
I'd rather be dead than be deprived of it.
What is the color of your aura?
I'd be very interested if the seeing of "auras" turned out to be that some people can detect the electrical currents produced by the brain in a manner similar to synthesesia or something like that... I guess shimmery purple and kingfisher blue would be nice.
Black and purple.
What does your essence taste like?
Chilli-chocolate.
Raw meat P:
What’s your elemental affinity?
Classical: Not Air, maybe Earth and/or Water.
Real: I've always had a fondness for Sodium.
Water and Earth, and Cobalt.
Who would you ask to the next Playground Prom, if we had one?
Death, Your Friend the Reaper if he were around Otherwise, maybe Dizzy, Warkitty, I'm Da Rogue if she comes back again, oooooor... Rowsen <.<
What happened to Cobra Ikari?
Are you part of any other online communities?
Nah (Facebook doesn't count). I briefly went on the forum for Bigger Than Cheeses, but I got accused of being anti-feminist for not thinking all strippers and sex workers are by definition being exploited and abused. Years ago, I went on an Animorphs forum <.< Got involved in a big ethics argument...
What fictional character do you most identify with?
Possibly someone like Melusine, or the boy from the Pern books who rides the white dragon, or... most of the characters from the Winding Circle series, or Kel from the Protector of the Small.
Her ^
Socks: Yes or no?
Yes. Especially really long fancy ones.
Do I look like a sock person?
What’s your cutie mark and its significance?
Two snakes twisted round each other. See: my essay on the caduceus.
According to my Pony, a little black snake.
Do you know any Playgrounders in real life?
I met a few, does that count? Exchanged parcels with some others... My ex used to be on here, but I got the forums in the divorce.
What is the highest compliment you have ever received?
"You fumble your way into extremely awkward situations, and then barge your way straight through them to the other side."
"Wow. You're really, uh, strong..."
What is the highest compliment you can imagine receiving?
"You've achieved so much with your life. You inspire me to do more."
"You're so beautiful, yet so competent!"
What do you want to be when you grow up?
Happy, and helping the world get better in some way.
Human.
...sometimes.
What’s your favorite greeting?
Greetings and salutations!
"So are you here to try to kill me, or will you actually talk to me for once?"
Your favorite way of saying goodbye?
I guess for commonness "seeya". Ta-ta's kinda fun. Or "faretheewell".
A smile and a wave.
What’s your favorite smilie?
S:
Why did you choose your username?
Me'n'it go back a long way. I first really discovered the word when my mum and I were travelling across Victoria and I saw a sign to a town called Serpentine. It just struck me as a really lovely, evocative word. It came to be my default name for my fantasy "me"s, and stuck.
Why are you in the Playground?
Well, originally, cuz my ex was on it a fair bit and it looked fun and interesting. Now... aside from my addictive personality (), it's a good place to talk about a whole lot of stuff with a whole lot of different people, basically.
Renegade Paladin's A follow-up question: Is it just Serpentine that hates jazz, or also you?
Mostly her. I wouldn't want to sit and listen to it, but I'm fine with it as background music or whatever.
What is it that draws you to travel?
I want to experience everything I can, everywhere.
A Chinese restaurant with especially expensive food? (It tends to be on the cheap side here.)
The sort of Chinese restaurant that is found in the middle of a state capital city, with live fish and other seafood in tanks in the windows, which serves things like pigeon and duck chin as well as fresh abalone for $100 for 100g.
What's the deal with the weird naga that follows you around, anyway?
Not a naga And she's... Serpentine. Always has been, always will be.
What is your greatest strength?
I guess my diverse interests could be, but at the moment it feels like a disadvantage. I think at the moment, most of my strengths are in potential.
My strength! Also animals like me.
What do you fear most?
Old age and death, and missing out on things. At the moment, that my laziness and cowardice will cause me to live a nothing-life.
Being trapped or contained.
3.x or 4e?
3.5/PF.
When the answer to a question is no but giving that answer would be uncomfortable, do you say no or ignore the question?
Neither. I try to find a compromise.
In a formal table setting, what is the function of the second fork from the left?
Salad?
Do you post on other message boards?
See above.
What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?
African or European?
Where does it end, I ask you? Where does it all end?
With entropy, or so I'm told. The Last Question by Isaac Asimov has a pretty great angle on that, though.
Thank you Serpentine for your time. Have a sinuous day.
Up next we have an avatarist and webcomic artist, Teutonic Knight! Give him a warm welcome and go check out his artwork. It's pretty neat.
Reinholdt's Riveting and Rhetorical Questions: What question would you like to be asked? What traits do you look for in an ideal pet? What is the square root of Pi? What's your favorite OOTS strip?

Reinholdt's Riveting and Rhetorical Questions:
Spoiler
What question would you like to be asked?
I honestly can't think of one. Maybe one that is pretty punny. What traits do you look for in an ideal pet?
An ideal pet needs to be fairly calm, and able to just chill by me, maybe with occasional bursts of energy to force me to exercise. What is the square root of Pi?
Something I don't want to figure out right now. What's your favorite OOTS strip?
I definitely have an answer for this, but I also would need to look it up. I'll insert an answer here later. If I don't, yell at me. What's your favorite Erfworld strip? Same as the previous. How does your ITP persona relate to you in real life?
Well, part of it is that I'm a redhead in real life, and the fiery part matches that kind of well, especially with the avatar that was made for me. The tower part is harder to pin down, but it might be because I tend to be the silent type at first, and when I picked the name I used in Warcraft 3(Yes, this name followed me all the way from there), that influenced my choice highly. Sadistic choice time! You must choose to save either the life of your most loved one or the lives of a large group of strangers. Which do you choose?
You know, I wish I could say I could go all Spock and say "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few" because I know that would be the right thing to do, but there is probably at least half a chance that I'd save my loved one unless they convinced me not to. What is your favorite word?
Marshmallow, for how it sounds. What is your least favorite word?
Definitely some kind of slang. Shawtie (I think that's how its spelled, but I don't care enough to check), probably What makes you enthusiastic?
A day off. What disappoints you?
Waking up early. What sound do you love?
Late night silence, if lack of sound counts. What sound do you hate?
Yapping dogs. What profession other than yours would you like to attempt?
I'd love to try my hand at writing as more than a hobby. What profession would you not like to participate in?
Customer service.

1. Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character? If so, who?
I probably have, but I also don't remember having one and I don't have one right now. If I can remember having a crush on one, I'll edit it in later and make a note. 2. What is one thing about yourself you're the most proud of?
My introspective nature. It keeps me in check. 3. Roses or orchids?
Roses. 4. What sustains you, keeps you going every day?
The rhythm of life, to be poetic. 5. How did you get to be so awesome?
Hardly working and procrastination 6. Where were you ten years ago, and what do you know now that you wish you knew back then?
Grade school, with barely a care in the world. I'd like to have known that in a few years, my parents were going to be getting divorced so it wouldn't have been as much of a shock as it was. It didn't screw me up too much, but it definitely would have probably helped the situation. 7. If the human race vanished tomorrow, leaving only you and one other person to keep you company, who would you want that person to be?
I'm sure if I had a girlfriend or wife, that person would be here. Since I don't have either, it's a tough question. I'd probably choose my closest female friend, because I know I could stand living with her as the only person I could talk to for the 50+ years, as well as philosophical debates, silly banter, etc.
Also, because she'd be able to stand with me as the only person on earth that long as well. 8. Who is one person who died before you were born that you'd most like to speak with?
J.R.R. Tolkien. 9. When your life comes to an end, how do you want to be remembered/what do you want to be remembered for?
Honestly, it'd just be nice to be remembered as a nice person who made a difference. Don't need the fame, because I wouldn't be there to enjoy it anyways. 10. Ga! These questions have taken a turn for the depressing! Quick, what is your favorite lolcat!? (Bonus cookies for posting a pic.) 11. What super-power would you want to use to stop Godzilla if he was attacking where you live?
Well, to stop a monster of the caliber of godzilla I couldn't use my favorite superpower of invisibility... So I'm thinking the superpower of teleportation, including anything I touch(With a plot hole filled explanation because teleportation wouldn't work without an insane amount of math because of the rotating earth), donning a spacesuit, and teleporting godzilla and I to the moon.
Gruesome, yet somewhat satisfying. 12. Beards or babies?
Beards. 13. Have you ever made up a word? If so, what is that word and what is its definition?
...Not to my knowledge, no. 14. Define the following word: whiloplenulent?
A word describing two situations happening at the same time, that end up being very eerily similar. 15. What's an old-fashioned song or short schmaltzy bit of poetry that's stuck in your head?
Because media and school has firmly implanted it there: "And I, I chose the road less traveled by, and that has made all the difference."
I probably slightly botched it up, but I also didn't look it up >.> 16. Favorite mythological monster?
Gryphons are awesome. Though dragons take a very very close second. 17. Enough of this! I am your arch-nemesis! Where will we fight our final, climactic battle?
There is only one place that would be suitable for a final battle of the caliber ours would be!
To the playground! No no, not this one, but one where little kids play.
...Suburban Knights made me do it. 18. In #17, above, did you defeat me? If so, how?
It'd probably end up with a draw, unless you have some kind of siege weapon. Towers aren't known for their fighting prowess. 19. Do you prefer the silly questions or the serious ones?
A good mix of both is nice, in my opinion. 20. Why did you decide to submit yourself to these torturous, probing questions?
On a whim.

I'd love to in a few years, but it's not in the cards until I get a stable job and transportation of my own.(Being in college, I have neither.) What type of chocolate do you prefer?
White chocolate is amazing. What type and how many pets do you have?
I'd say I only really own this one cat in the house, because it always comes to me to hang out. But, in the house I live in, there are currently seven chihuahuas and two other cats.
Puts the yapping dogs answer in perspective from a while back. Do you enjoy watching the Weather Channel?
THE WEATHER CHANNEL!? THAT CHANNEL IS AMAZING!
...When nothing else is on and I have absolutely nothing to do.
Oh, Here are some obligatory words outside of the quote to let me actually post this.

Do you, in fact, have any cheese here at all?
Who told you about my cheese!?
Oh, you were only asking. No, of course I don't have cheese. *Moves in front of a box label "Cheese". Will you go quietly when they come for you?
Am I in a crowd? What is your anti-zombie weapon of choice?
A crapton of matches and enough gas to make a gas station jealous. Are you running to something, or from something?
...I'm running?
Oh, I'm running!
Must be away from something. What's the magic word?
Now, my instincts from childhood are tempting me to put please, but obviously the correct answer is cheese.
Of which I don't have any.
Some more obligatory words.

How’s life at the moment?
Pretty good actually, until college starts up again in a couple of weeks. Favorite color?
Orange Favorite fruit?
Cherry Favorite ice cream?
Rocky Road What is your theme song?
To steal the song from another http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ke281MBhpDg
Lightning's Theme from Final Fantasy 13. Calm, but with a quiet intensity as well. What is your alignment?
Up to about 4-5 months ago, I would have said Lawful Good. I think now, however, it's leaning towards Neutral Good, teetering on the edge. What is your Magic: The Gathering color?
Blue What is the meaning of life?
The meaning of life is whatever an individual makes. What are your thoughts on:
Love?
Happens when it happens, but when it happens, it happens. Friendship?
You can always use more friends. Unless they're jerks. Freedom?
We can never have this in the truest sense(Because if we did, then we'd be allowing the people on the other side of the alignment to do whatever they want as well.) What is the color of your aura?
Not sure, but maybe a light blueish? What does your essence taste like?
Soda. Definitely. What’s your elemental affinity?
You know, I used to think it was fire, but I'm starting to think mine's water as of recently. Who would you ask to the next Playground Prom, if we had one?
Ummm
Well
You see...

Oh wait, this interview isn't over yet. Are you part of any other online communities?
I'm sometimes in the Goblins ustream community, but other then that, not really. What fictional character do you most identify with?
Not situation wise, but personality wise, Church. Socks: Yes or no?
Of course! What’s your cutie mark and its significance?
I'd probably be a blank flank at this point in time. Do you know any Playgrounders in real life?
Only people I personally dragged onto here. None of them post much, though. What is the highest compliment you have ever received?
Well, I get called forms of brainiac often by different people, so it'd probably be one of the higher forms of that.(Though I almost feel like it's undeserved) What is the highest compliment you can imagine receiving?
I don't know. I'm not sure why I get complimented much in the first place. What do you want to be when you grow up?
I don't know. What’s your favorite greeting?
Probably just "hello" Your favorite way of saying goodbye?
Probably saying "see ya" while doing a wave using a peace sign. I've found myself doing that more often than not. What’s your favorite smilie? Rarely get to use it, but it's so fun when you can. Why did you choose your username?
Long time ago, on Warcraft 3, I chose it. Not exactly sure on the reason why. I was Catseye2121 at some point, but The_Fiery_Tower just felt better, so I switched it here. Why are you in the Playground?
Because the playground is awesome.

I have to say, if I have the time to devote to it, mason. It gives you enough information to analyze the whole game without being too important or as big of a target.
How tall are you?
5'10" Have you ever coloured your hair or will you in the near future?
Funny story. I'm a red head with a splash of brown added in. So, a couple of years back, I wanted to try to make it almost completely brown. So, my sister let me use her dark brown dye to color my hair.
...My hair ended up turning black instead of brown. I proceeded to be called steve instead of my real name until I cut my hair, because I couldn't be myself without red hair apparently. Of course, it's true.
You know the drill by now.

Have you ever travelled overseas? Nope If so, what event really drove it home that you weren't in your own country anymore? Can't answer this one. What place/s do you most and least want to visit? I've really wanted to visit Italy, Japan, and the UK, in that order. I don't really have a place I least want to visit. What have you recently discovered or worked out about yourself?
Given the opportunity, my body will pretty much flip it's schedule between day and night. In what ways have you changed since you were half your current age?
I've probably completely changed. I've become more introverted, more introspective, more thick skinned, more verbose. In what ways have you stayed the same? I'm still human?
Okay really, I have kept a lot of interests I had then, but I've completely changed in the past nine years of my life. What are you most proud of? My introspective nature.(I believe I answered this question already? ) What are you most ashamed of? My procrastination What is your greatest achievement?
At this point, probably getting into and doing well in college. What is your greatest regret? Not getting more done during summers. What do you consider the best and worst of each of your senses (that is, what do you think is the best and worst smell, taste, etc)?
Best smell: Not exactly where it comes from, but the smell a dryer that's running gives off. It's probably lint or something similar.
Worst smell: Cigarette smoke
Best taste: German chocolate cake
Worst taste: Mint. Though I think my taste buds are starting to enjoy it more.
Best sound: Late night silence
Worst sound: Yapping dogs (I think I answered sound questions somewhere...)
Best sight: That moment when you look at a clock, and it's time for something you've been waiting for a while for.
Worst sight: Any image of human suffering.
Best touch: Going into an air conditioned room on a hot day
Worst touch: Leaving an air conditioned room on a hot day Wanna meet whenever I end up in your part of the world?
It looks like you'll be around San Fran at some point while I'm in college, so sure, it'd be fun.
