Niki

questionnaire #1: the basics

your name

Nicole Ann Graymer...but I guess you can call me Niki. It sounds better.

your age

Well...that's debatable. If you want to know how long it's been since I was born, I really have no idea. I lost a really big chunck of time being stuck in a bottle recently. But if you don't count that time, I'm 16 years 3 months, and 14 days old...give or take a day.

describe yourself

Ummm...I'm short, and slender (not skinny...skinny is bad, slender good, at least that's how Mom always put it to me...) I have long dark purple hair...that's the actual color of it, since I changed it with my magic. It used to be blonde. And my eyes are blue...that's their natural color. Jay says that I'm pretty...for a girl. I don't really agree with him, and I'm not really sure if I trust him on that point anyway.

describe your mate (if applicable)

...I don't have a mate. Even if I had had a boyfriend before getting shut up, he'd probably be dead now...

where (and when) do you live?

I'm not quite sure anymore. Before getting shut up I lived in Appleton, Wisconsin, where I was born and grew up. But that was in 1997. I just woke up recently after being shut in my bottle for a while, and I'm still a little fuzzy on just how long it's been (or where I am now for that matter)...and the people who found me aren't being very helpful. The closest guess I can get at the moment is it's been about 200 years, though...

what's your favorite sweet?

Jelly bellies. Jay thinks I'm weird, but I really like the buttered popcorn and juicy pear ones. Of course, with my luck they don't even exist anymore...

questionnaire #2: favorites

what is your favorite...

season?

I like fall. The leaves are really pretty when they change colors most of the time, and it's not really hot or cold...just cool enough to be pleasant.

food?

I've always really liked Mom's homemade chicken noodle soup. She always used to make it for me when I was sad or sick, and it always cheered me up. It's not gross, like the stuff you get in a can...because she adds something different to make it better. I've never quite been able to figure out what it is, though...

animal?

I like otters. They're pretty, and playful, and fun to watch. I wish I could just play around in the water all day like an otter. That would be nice.

color?

Well, purple is a favorite...that's why my hair is purple.

time of day?

Noontime. The sun is high in the sky, so it's bright outside, and everyone is usually awake by then.

weapon?

...I don't know. I don't really like fighting, or hurting people. I guess if I had to hurt someone, though...my weapon of choice would be my magic...from a distance so I don't have to see it.

questionnaire #3: background

tell us about...

your place of birth

Appleton is a city that's sorta in the middle of Wisconsin. It's not really a big city, but it's not small either...about 70,000 people last time I checked. Well, that's how it was before I got shut up in my bottle...I don't even know if Appleton exists anymore. I really liked Appleton, even though winter lasted a little too long there...

your childhood

I was always with Jay when we were kids. It wasn't that Mom and Dad made us spend all our time together because we were twins...we just liked being together. I was the quiet one and he was the loud, outgoing one, but we were still Jay-and-Niki, not Jay and Niki. We had friends, most of them were ones that Jay found and made for us...but they were nice to me, and it wasn't like they just included me to make Jay happy.
Just a normal childhood, I guess. Well, besides the fact that Jay and I could talk to each other without speaking...but that wasn't something that got talked about outside of the family.

your parents

Mom is an engineer. She works a full time job designing machines to make plastic packaging...and somehow had the time to take care of us as well when we were little, since Dad never remembered to do it. I have no idea how she ever found the time in the day...but she did. And she never got fed up with us. She's always happy and smiling...except when our real Dad died, but anyone would be sad when her husband and father of her children dies. I really miss her...
Dad, not our real father, is a writer. He married Mom when Jay and I were five, and I don't really remember our real Dad, except that Mom really loved him, and he was nice. The Dad that I call Dad has always been really nice to me, and though I was a little uncomfortable with him taking my real Dad's place at first...I forgot about that. He's scatterbrained, and usually off in one of the worlds he writes about instead of the real one...so he often forgets to do things like laundry, or cooking, or even picking Zack up from school once. But he still loves us, and he tells the best stories.

your siblings

Jay is my twin brother. He's older, by twenty-four minutes. He's more outgoing than I am...and much more comfortable being around people. He was my best friend while we were little...and I guess he still was, though I'm pretty sure he's dead now. There's no way he could have survived all this time without the magic, right? Anyway...Jay and I have a sort of telepathic bond...it's something we've had since we were born...even before we decided to take the magic together, so we always knew what was on each other's minds. Jay was a good person, even if he didn't think of himself as such. I've never been apart from him for a long time before...so I really don't know how I'm going to be ale to deal with it now. I really miss him already.
Zack is my younger half brother. He was born about half a year after Mom and Dad got married...so he's quite a bit younger than Jay and I. He's not quite as strange as Jay and I are. He's normal, and proud of it. He gets really embarrassed by Dad's occasional inability to stay focused on the real world, but I'm pretty sure that he still loves us all, even if he thinks we're all insane except for Mom. He's always been really active and loves soccer, so we always get dragged to watch his games...even Dad. He was only ten when I lost all of my time, though...so I never even got to see him grow up.

your (current) home

...Well, I haven't been here all that long. I'm not really sure where it is. It seems to be some sort of facility...but the people here haven't let me see very much. I've mostly been locked in this one room the whole time, not that the lock would stop me if they hadn't realized that I have to obey the orders they give me. From what I've seen so far, though, this place seems to be very lonely.

your favorite "hang out"

That was always Jay's decision. I would have been perfectly content staying at home all day long... He was the one who got me out of the house, and it usually involved places like the movies, or fast food restaurants (Subway was his favorite). I do like the library, though. It's nice and quiet there, and they have more books than I do.

questionnaire #4: skills

can you read?

I don't know what I would do if I couldn't read. I taught myself when I was three years old, because I was tired of having to wait for Mom to read to me. Then, after I started figuring out the words, I tried to teach Jay... I guess he did well, for a three-year-old who didn't really care about learning to read in the first place.

can you write?

With Dad being a writer...of course I can write, even if the public school system didn't teach it. Besides, when Mom found out that I was teaching myself to read, she started helping me figure out how to put the letters on the the pages myself.

can you sing?

...kinda... I'm not terribly good at it, but I can pass the air through my vocal cords and make it sound like song instead of speech...

can you play an instrument?

I took piano lessons for nine years after the counselor at school suggested to Mom that music is good for intelligent children. It's not really anything important, though.

what languages do you speak?

English, and not quite enough Spanish to get by in a country where they speak it. I was in the middle of my fourth year of Spanish in high school when I got shut into the bottle...so technically I should be good enough at it to get along in Spain...but I would feel very, very lost without my dictionary.

what weapons can you use?

...I don't like fighting, but I guess I can flail around and try to hit someone if I really wanted. As I said earlier, if I had to fight I would use my magic to do it...

questionnaire #5: secrets

are you good at keeping secrets about yourself?

...not really, and especially not when it's something I'm ashamed of. Then I feel like everyone already knows, so it's hard to keep it to myself.

what is your best kept secret?

I failed a history test in tenth grade. That night before was when Jay went out and gave his virginity to a random stranger in a bar, so I was too worked up to study, or sleep. The next day I fell asleep in the middle of the test, and ended up getting a 49% on it. I don't think even Jay knows about that one.

what is your worst kept secret?

I'm not really sure. There are a bunch of embarrassing things that everyone knows...(well everyone before I got myself shut in my bottle...) because I was stupid and blurted them out in front of practically the whole world.

are you good at keeping secrets about others?

Better than keeping secrets about myself.

what secret about someone else have you kept and wish you hadn't?

I never told anyone about Jay's first time. I know, because I saw it through our bond (and felt it...which was weird), but he asked me not to tell, and I didn't. But I should have. Mom and Dad were worried about him after that happened, because he acted different for a while.

what secret about someone else have you not kept and wish you had?

I told Mom and Dad about Jay losing his magic. He was going to tell them, eventually, but he wanted to get used to it a little first. I told them, though, and then he got confronted about it before he was really ready to accept it himself. And he spend the next week depressed because of it.

questionnaire #6: sex

are you a virgin?

Yes, I am. Though you could argue that mentally I'm not, since I tend to share Jay's experiences through our bond...especially when he has sex. Besides that...I have had more than a few sexual experiences, but none that have made me lose my actual virginity, due to my first Master being a perverted sicko.

do you mate for life?

I'd like to think that someday I'll find a guy I'm willing to spend my life with.

who was your first lover? (or, if you are a virgin, who would you like your first lover to be?)

I know that I don't want my first time to be like Jay's. I want it to be someone I know and care for, preferably someone I love as well.

who is your current lover?

I don't have one.

what is your favorite sexual position?

*blush* ...could I skip this question?

what are your kinks?

This one too?

questionnaire #7: best and worst

what's the worst thing that's ever happened to you?

Being shut up in my bottle. Everyone I know is dead, even Jay. I have no idea where...or when...I am, or what's going on. I just want to see someone familiar, but the only person I can think of who might still be around is Aunt Kira. And it's all because I've been out of it because I was stupid.

what's the best thing that's ever happened to you?

Despite the fact that my worst thing happened because of this, I would have to say becoming a genie.

who is your worst enemy?

Why would I have an enemy?

who is your best friend?

Jay. He understands me better than anyone else. He knows thing that no one else knows, because I trust him.

tell us about your worst kiss

I've never kissed anyone.

tell us about your best kiss

...even if I had kissed someone, that's too private.

questionnaire #8: mornings

what time do you wake/get up?

5:00 am, every day. Having a consistent sleep schedule is good for the body, and makes you feel more awake in the morning.

what's the first thing you do upon waking?

I stretch.

are you a morning person?

Definitely. I think best in the morning.

what is your typical morning like?

I shower and dress right after waking. Then I study or read for a while before eating breakfast. Then I leave for school. But...I probably don't have to do school anymore, and I'm not really sure how all of this will change now.

do you drink coffee?

No. It's better to get enough sleep and be truly awake than to rely on an addictive stimulant like caffeine to feel awake for a short amount of time before crashing again. Besides, coffee tastes horrid.

do you need coffee?

No.

questionnaire #9: are you?

are you...

smart?

Yes. I know it usually sounds like bragging, but I am quite smart.

arrogant?

I try not to be, but I always feel like that's how people see me when I try to be more confident, like Jay says I should be.

good-looking?

I don't think I am...but Jay says I am.

sexy?

I don't see how I could be.

capable?

Usually, though I'm really no good at dealing with people.

dangerous?

I try to avoid violence, and I really only think I could be dangerous if a Master ordered me to be.

questionnaire #10: marks

do you have any scars?

I used to have a scar on my cheek from when I scratched too much while I had the chicken pox, but I got rid of it when I became a genie because it looked weird.

do you have any piercings?

I got my ears pierced when I was in second grade because Mom thought it was cute. I haven't worn earrings since elementary school, though, and I think the holes may have closed when I changed.

do you have any tattoos?

No.

do you have any other markings?

Jay and I used to have matching birthmarks on our backs that didn't really look any different, but felt soft, almost like the skin wasn't formed right. I know mine is gone now, because it was gross and I got rid of it.

do you wear any jewelery?

I have a black metal bracelet on my left wrist that I cannot remove, as it is part of the bond to my bottle that makes me what I am. It serves as a reminder of the less than pleasant parts of being a genie, but otherwise it's not all that bad.
I also like to wear something around my neck all the time...I feel weird without a necklace of some sort. My favorite is a purple dragon pendant that Jay gave me for my birthday when we were little after I saw it in the store but didn't have any money to buy it. Besides the necklace, I wear glasses, which technically I don't need, since I could fix my myopia with my magic if I wanted to.

have you ever broken any bones?

No. I try to avoid situations that would cause me to break bones.

questionnaire #11: grab bag

what is your favourite mode of transportation?

I like flying, whether under my own magical power, or in an airplane.

can you cook?

Not very well. I suppose if I had to survive without my magic I could live on ramen, sandwiches, cereal, and macaroni and cheese, but I tend to burn anything that involves using the oven.

do you have big feet?

No, they're actually quite small.

what is the square root of 169?

13

if you could change your name to anything you wanted, what would you change it to?

I like my name, though I think I would rather have a slightly less common middle name. Half the people I know have the middle name Ann...the rest are Marie's.

what is the sound of one hand clapping?

The sound of skin hitting skin, as the tips of the fingers come in contact with the base of the hand. It's very faint if you don't put enough strength into it, but there is a sound.

questionnaire #12: rituals

do you believe in a higher power?

Well, Aunt Kira claimed that there was a sort of creator/god who gave us our power...but I can't say for sure whether I believe her or not. It would make sense, though...

do you belong to a formal religion?

No. I think Mom might have been Catholic at one time, but she stopped sometime before raising Jay and me.

do you have any religious rituals?

No.

do your people have any sort of coming of age ritual?

Not really. Aunt Kira told me that being given the choice to become a genie, like in Jay's and my situation, is usually done at age sixteen...but that it very rarely happens, so I don't think that would count as a ritual.

do you have any personal rituals?

No.

do you have any sexual rituals?

...definitely not...

questionnaire #13: your lover

If you do not have a lover/mate/significant other/spouse, please answer the questions about your best friend.
Okay...I'll answer them about Jay...though it feels really strange answering questions about my twin brother in the "lover" section...

how long have you been together?

Since my birth (as he is the older of us).

what do you like to do together?

He doesn't think I like it, but I really enjoy it when he takes me out to be with our friends.

what do you do to make your best friend happy?

I let him be himself. He isn't always cheerful, though he acts that way around everyone else. But when it's just us, he can be himself, and he likes that.

what do you do even though it upsets your best friend?

I try to get him to study a little more. He doesn't get bad grades, but I know he could do better...and I really think he should try a little harder, even if he thinks it's a waste of his time.

if someone was going to meet your best friend for the first time, what one thing would they need to know?

Don't make any sort of assumption about what he'll be like before you meet him. Even if you're right...he doesn't like it when people do that, since most of the time they aren't right, especially when they expect him to be the flaming effeminate gay boy after I tell them that he came out when he was fifteen years old.

what's your absolutely favourite thing about your best friend?

He understands me, sometimes even when I don't understand myself.

questionnaire #14: if you were...

if you were a ____ what would you be?

a metal

Something dull, and not terribly valuable, but probably something useful as well.

a plant

Grass. I'm there, but you don't always notice me (well, except for the hair...this works better with how I looked before I made it purple). But I'm still there.

a fault

Shyness, or being focused to the point where you lose track of reality...because both of those apply to me.

a virtue

Intelligence.

a color

Purple. I don't care what any sort of personality and color matching people might say. I've always identified myself with the color purple...it is the color that shows when I use my magic, and it in general makes me feel warm and safe.

a season

I'm not sure...but since my favorite season is fall, I'll say fall.

questionnaire #15: what is your most distinctive...

what is your most distinctive...

physical feature?

My hair...not many people have dark purple hair. But before that, it was my height, because I am just under five feet tall.

physical mannerism?

I tend to bite my fingers and fingernails when I'm thinking or nervous. I don't even notice it until afterward, unless I happen to bite too much and make it bleed or sore.

character trait?

I don't like dealing with people. I have spent parties in the corner with a book, reading.

turn of phrase?

I tend to use random Spanish words in my speech when around people I know...whether they understand the words or not.

pet peeve?

I cannot stand people who can't admit that they are wrong or have screwed up.

habit?

Besides chewing on my fingers and fingernails, I also chew on my pens and pencils, especially when I'm taking a test.

questionnaire #16: wants

what's one place you've always wanted to go?

I would like to visit any of the European countries with castles. It doesn't matter which one.

what's one thing you've never been able to do?

It ties in with where I'd like to go. I've never seen a real castle, having lived in the US all of my life. I want to see a castle.

what one thing have you always wanted to learn but never have?

I've always wanted to learn Italian, but they didn't teach it at my school.

what's one thing you've always wanted to do and never have?

Well, I would like to get myself a boyfriend eventually...but I'm not sure if I will ever have the confidence to do it.

what's one thing you've always wanted to have but don't have?

My driver's license. Jay got his right away when we turned sixteen, but I didn't feel ready for it. I had a test scheduled for about a week later when I got trapped, but obviously I wasn't able to do that, so I never got my license.

who do you envy?

Jay. He does what he wants to do and doesn't worry about things like I do. I wish I could be even half as confident and outgoing as he is.

questionnaire #17: animals

do you like animals?

Most of them, yes.

which animals don't you like?

Bugs, spiders, snakes...anything crawly.

do you hunt? if so, for food or pleasure?

No...unless you count trying to find something in Jay's room as hunting...but I don't think that's the kind of hunting you meant.

do you eat meat?

Yes, but I eat other things too.

which animal do you most closely identify with?

I'm not sure...

which animal do you most closely identify your mate with?

I don't have a mate.

questionnaire #18: superstitions

are you superstitious?

No. I bring old superstitions up sometimes when those situations happen, but I don't believe them, and the people near me know that.

what is your most embarrassing superstition?

When I was young and Jay told me the superstition that goes "step on a crack, break your mother's back" I believed him and used to avoid stepping on all the cracks and lines in the sidewalk.

what is your most strongly held superstition?

I don't believe any of them anymore.

do you believe in the devil?

Not really.

do you believe in karma?

No, though I do think that it is in general a good idea to be nice to others in hopes that they will be nice to you.

do you carry a talisman/lucky charm/etc.?

No.

questionnaire #19: either or

country or city?

City. I don't deal well with people, but I can't imagine living away from them either.

water or alcohol?

Water. I don't drink, because I can't stand the thought of losing control like that.

black or white?

White. I like the color black, but I've had a little too much of it after not-quite-sleeping for the past however many years I was shut in my bottle.

day or night?

Day. My brain shuts down after midnight.

pain or pleasure?

Pleasure...I don't like hurting, not even the one time I felt Jay doing something rather kinky with his partner... He found the pain rather nice...but I didn't like it.

life or death?

If you had asked me this before I got shut in my bottle I definitely would have said life. But now...I don't know where I am, or whether anybody who I know is still alive, and I don't like that thought. So I'm not sure...I might almost prefer death.

questionnaire #20: fear, pain, and loss

what are you afraid of?

I am afraid of going back into the bottle...I'm also afraid of being alone...but that one's already happening.

how do you deal with your fears?

I have a hard time dealing with my fears. Jay always used to help me, but he's not here to do that anymore. All I can really do now is cry and try to forget them.

why did you cry most recently?

I realized just how much everything has changed since I got trapped in the bottle...and how much isn't there anymore. I realized that Jay was gone...and so I curled up on the bed in the room that they shut me in and cried myself to sleep.

what was the worst pain you've experienced?

I felt it when Jay gave his virginity to a random guy he found in a bar. I experienced it with him...and it hurt. But, besides that, it hurt my heart that he did something like that.

what is the worst injury or illness you've experienced?

My first Master thought that I was his personal sex slave when I first came to him. I managed to convince him not to use me that way...for the most part, but before I could do it, he hit me several times and dislocated my shoulder. It wasn't hard to heal with my magic later...but it still hurt.

what do you most dread losing?

I've already lost it...I dread losing Jay. He is my confidence, but he's gone now.

questionnaire #21: Christmas and New Year's

do you celebrate a winter solstice type holiday and if so, which one?

The winter solstice is around December 20th...a little early for Christmas. So...no, no I don't.

do you believe in Santa Claus? Kris Kringle? Hern the Hunter? The Ice Fairy? someone else associated with the holiday?

Like all other children I know, I used to believe in Santa...then Jay found out that he wasn't real and told me.

do you like giving gifts?

I like making other people happy, and giving gifts usually makes people happy.

what's the best gift you've ever given someone?

I have no idea. The things I think are good gifts aren't always received quite so well...and sometimes something I think is trivial ends up being someone's favorite gift...

do you like getting gifts?

Doesn't everyone?

what's the best gift you've ever gotten?

One time Jay promised to try harder in school...and gave me a book of "homework coupons." He did it just to make me happy, and I think it has to be the best give I've ever gotten.

do you mark the coming of the New Year in some way?

I always liked watching the ball drop in New York on tv...I wonder if they still do that...

are you making a new year's resolution? if so, what is it?

My new year's resolution will be to try not to dwell on what's happened...though that won't be easy to keep.

have you made resolutions in the past?

I try to make one every year.

if so, which was the most successful?

One year I resolved to be more outgoing...and I actually managed to keep up with it for about two months.

if so, which was the least successful?

My first one ever. After Mom told me about the concept, I resolved to bring about world peace... I was five years old, and needless to say I didn't succeed.

if you could make a completely fresh start, would you?

Probably. It couldn't be much worse than how my life is right now. Actually...I suppose coming back from the bottle is almost like a fresh start...since no one here knows me.

if you had no choice and were making a completely fresh start and could bring one person with you, who would it be?

Jay. I don't even want to think about life without him.

questionnaire #22: dreams

what is your favorite dream?

Any dream, even a nightmare, is better than the limbo-like not-quite-sleep state that I was in while in the bottle.

what is your worst nightmare?

Last night I dreamed that Jay was still around, but that he was forcing me to go back into my bottle and stay there for another indefinite period of time... I almost woke up screaming, except that I remembered just in time that my new Master wanted me to stay quiet.

do you dream in color?

Yes.

do you have recurring dreams? if so, what?

I didn't before I got trapped in my bottle...but if things continue like they have since I got out then yes. Almost all of my dreams since then have been about getting put back into the bottle in one way or another.

how do you keep bad dreams away?

I never really had bad dreams until just recently...so I really don't know. Nothing I've tried seems to work.

what did you dream last night?

I answered this one while talking about my worst nightmare.

questionnaire #23: either or (2)

clothed or naked?

Definitely clothed. I hate being naked, because it makes me feel weak.

loud or quiet?

Quiet. It's easier to read when it's quiet.

rain or snow?

Rain, because it's not as cold as snow most of the time.

happy or sad?

Happy. I hate being sad.

boots or shoes?

Sandals, or barefoot.

ant or caterpillar?

Caterpillar...then one day it will be a butterfly.

questionnaire #24: likes and dislikes

what is your comfort food?

Chicken soup, preferably homemade. Mom always used to make it for me when I was sad or sick.

when do you reach for it?

Recently...all the time.

what textures do you like least?

I don't like slimy things...because they're slimy.

which textures make you most want to reach out and touch?

Velvet, because it feels nice against my skin. Actually, anything that looks soft or fluffy too.

what scent do you like most?

I've always liked the smell of vanilla. It makes me feel comfortable.

what scent do you like least?

I'm not quite sure, besides the generic bad-smelling things like excrement, or rotten things.

questionnaire #25: appearace/clothing

are you vain?

No...I don't really care that much about my appearance.

how important is your outward appearance?

Besides being clothed and presentable, I don't care all that much.

do you notice how other people look and what they are wearing?

Most of the time, no.

describe your favourite outfit.

I have a sleeveless dress that used to have a top...but I lost it a long time ago. It's cream-colored with little blue and purple flowers on it, and it's very light and comfortable. I like to wear it with an unbuttoned long sleeved top over it, because it's extremely comfortable to just sit around in, while also looking fairly nice.

describe your mate's (best friend, etc) favourite outfit if they were to choose it.

...Jay likes comfortable clothing, but he's also obsessed with looking his best. But I don't even know half of the clothing that he has...he cares so much more about that than I do. When I try to picture it, though, he shows up in a pair of jeans that are just old enough to still look nice, but be just as comfortable as that pair that he would never wear out in public because they're almost falling apart from age and a long-sleeved dark green shirt.

describe your favourite outfit to see your mate (best friend, etc.) in.

I don't have much of a preference, as long as he's happy with it, since I know that Jay has very good taste, especially compared to me.

questionnaire #26: sleep

where do you sleep?

In a bed, like any other normal person.

when do you sleep (time of day)?

Night time.

how many hours a day of sleep do you need?

Eight hours. More throws me off...less makes me rather zombie-like.

what's your favourite position to sleep in?

Curled up, on my side.

what do you wear to sleep?

Pajamas. My favorites are purple with stars and moons on them.

do you like a lot of covers, or a few, or none at all?

I like to bury myself so deep in the covers that you can't find me. And then, in response to that, I like to have the room cold, so that I don't roast myself under the covers. It probably would be easier to just sleep without them, but I don't like that.

questionnaire #27: life and death

who (or what) do you live for?

I'm not very sure anymore. I probably would have said Jay before I got locked up...just because I couldn't imagine life without him. Now...I have no idea.

who (or what) would you die for?

Again, I'm not sure anymore.

in general, what do people think of you upon first impression?

Quiet, polite bookworm. In general, a pretty good description of me.

what do people think of you after they get to know you better?

More or less the same. I don't really have any sort of face that I present to the world that hides how I really am.

if you were to die right now, today, what kind of legacy would you leave behind?

I probably wouldn't be remembered, beyond my current Master and his friends cursing me for not providing them with their wishes.

what kind of legacy would you *want* to leave behind?

Nothing fancy...beyond that I really haven't thought about it much.

questionnaire #28: Medicine

do you have any chronic or acute medical conditions?

No, so I guess I can skip the next four questions...

What are they?

Do you take medication (or any type of curative) for them?

How do you feel about taking the medication/curative?

What happens if you don't take the medication/curative?

who is your doctor/healer?

Mom used to take Jay and me to Dr. Hall when we were little, so I guess he was my doctor back then. But we kinda stopped needing him more or less completely after becoming genies, since the magic does the healing now. Would that make my magic my doctor now?

questionnaire #29: children

do you like children?

Most of the time, yes.

do you have children?

No...I'm far too young for that.

do you want to have children?

Not anytime soon. Technically I'm older than I think I am...but I still think I'm too young to be a mother. Maybe sometime in the future, after I meet a nice guy to be the father.

what is your earliest childhood memory?

I vaguely remember falling down and scraping my knee while chasing Jay for taking my book from me (I think he did it to get me to stop looking at it) in preschool. I then started crying, and Jay hugged me to make me stop until the teacher came over and made it better.

who was your favourite person when you were a child?

Jay...closely followed by Mom.

name one thing that made it clear to you that were no longer a child. How old were you at the time?

I still feel like a child most of the time. But I guess it was when Jay went out and lost his virginity...we were both fifteen, and it kinda shocked me into realizing that even if I didn't feel it, I had a mature body already.

questionnaire #30: astrology

what is your birthday?

June 21, 1981.

what is your sun sign?

Gemini...I think.

what is your moon sign?

Um, what?

what is your rising sign?

...I don't know much about astrology...

what sign do you find most annoying?

I'm not sure...I try not to judge people on that, because I've never found astrology to be all that accurate in determining a person's personality.

what sign do you find most attractive?

Same answer as above.
