obscure ask meme for moonbeam
1. What convenience store food would be their go-to at a 7-11 (Fantasy or otherwise?)
She’d really like candy, and would stock up on things like peanut m&ms or milky ways. She’d also enjoy those packaged cinnamon roll things and never leave a 7-11 without at least one.
2. Who is their drinking buddy? If they don’t drink, which drink friend would they watch over?
She doesn’t drink unless she’s pressured into it, but she will happily watch over her drunk pirate girlfriend any time she needs it.
3. Who would be their go-to character in clue?
Ms. Peacock because she thinks her aesthetic is neat.
4. If they ever had to go to college, what major would they pick?
Definitely English or some kind of literature specialization. She loves reading and hearing new stories, so it’d be right up her alley.
5. Do they have a signature color(s)?
Light blue, white, and purple.
6. What would be their favorite vine?
“Happy Chrismas! It’s Chrimus! Merry crisis! Merry Chrysler!”
7. If they had a social media account, what would it be about?
She’d have an Instagram filled with nothing but cute animals she sees, pretty sceneries, and the occasional, very sweet and shy looking selfie. She’d also probably have a Tumblr to keep track of cool magical spells and references that she didn’t want to forget later, and to thirst blog about Talia.
8. Who would they invite to be their best man/maid of honor at their wedding?
She’d probably offer the maid of honor position to the one and only person she’s called a friend for most of her life.
9. Alternatively, whose best man/maid of honor would they be?
She doesn’t think anyone would want her as a maid of honor because she doesn’t have any friends she’s close enough to right now, but she’d be thrilled to be anyone’s.
10. What would be the title of their sex/mixtape?
Mixtape would be something simple and to the point like “Songs for a Good Morning” or the like. Sextape would be some kind of play on the word mooning, but honestly she’s so innocent and pure just trying to think of her making a sextape is breaking my brain.
11. If there was no prejudice, what time period/place would they love to visit?
She’d honestly probably like to visit the 1920s, if only for the fashion. Those flapper dresses would be right up her alley.
12. What three words would they use to describe themself?
Shy, inexperienced, dangerous.
13. What three words would their friends/family use to describe them?
If you asked her family, it’d be something along the lines of nuisance, disgrace, or abomination.
If you asked her new friends the wonder sibs, they’d say quiet, uncertain, and fearful.
And if you asked her future pirate wife, she’d say quiet, captivating, and naive.
14. What nicknames do they have? Any particular stories behind them?
Rey is one most people who care to talk to her for more than a few minutes end up using for her. Moonbeam is a recent one, used mostly by her favorite pirate, and of course coming from the fact that she’s a moon elf. She’s had other, much less kind nicknames in the past, but she’d prefer not to think about them.
15. Do they consider themself a good person? Why or why not?
She tries her best to be a good person, though she sees herself as inherently dangerous to everyone around her.
16. If they were a cryptid, what would they be?
Honestly, she’d probably be Bigfoot. Lots of hair, easily frightened, just wants people to leave her alone.
17. What is the one thing they wish they could’ve said to a loved one, but never did?
She wishes she could tell her parents and the friend she left behind that she’s sorry, for much different reasons.
18. What would they tell their ten year old self?
“A lot of things are going to happen in the future that you won’t expect, and a lot of them will be scary. But you’ll make it through them. You’re a lot stronger than you think you are. If you ever feel like running away, then run away and don’t look back. It’ll still be scary, but you can handle it. I promise.”
19. Who would be on their team in an all out prank war? Who would they be against?
She’d be kind of against the idea of a prank war at first, but with enough persuasion she’d get into it. Talia would definitely be on her team, and by consequence they’d probably be against Roman. She’d want Cordelia on their team, too, because she likes Cordelia.
20. Can they drive a car? Are they good at it? (If cars don’t exist, would they be able to drive if they existed?)
The thought of driving would scare her, so I don’t think she’d be able to do it.
21. Tell the story behind their most stupid injury/scar.
When she was first learning to use her magic, she got spooked by one of her family’s horses kicking something over out in the yard, and she accidentally set her socks on fire. The blaze was put out easily enough, but both of her feet still have a few faint burn scars on them.
22. What word(s) would they freeze up at if someone said it to them?
Abomination. Monster. Worthless. Dangerous. Disgrace. Shameful. Demon. Marriage.
23. Who is someone they don’t talk to much, but would probably get along with?
She hasn’t really gotten to talk to Cordelia much yet, but I think they’d get along like a house on fire. Cordelia’s young and more cheerful than anyone else in their party, and she’d be a good friend for Reyelle. She’d also probably get along with Caldwin, since he’s pretty soft spoken compared to most of their companions.
24. Have they ever done something they think is unforgivable?
Too many things she’d rather not think about.
25. What type of soda would be their favorite?
She’s like something on the lighter side like Sprite.
26. What do they want more than anything?
To be free without any more worries to weigh her down. To be able to trust herself.
27. What is their fatal flaw?
Her self-doubt and fear of herself.
28. What Greek God would they be most like?
Either Athena because wisdom, or Selene because the moon.
29. Who do they look the most up to?
Right now, probably Talia. She’s basically everything Reyelle wishes she could be.
30 .If they had to pick between their best friend or significant other, who would they pick?
She doesn’t have a significant other currently, but she’d never be able to pick between her best friend and Talia, if it came down to it. Joke’s on whoever forces this choice on her, though— soon enough Talia will be both her best friend and girlfriend.

obscure asks for our favorite pirate
What convenience store food would be their go-to at a 7-11 (Fantasy or otherwise)?
Any mini bottles of liquor she can find, but if not that then she’d get a couple 3 Muskateers or Chex Mix.
Who is their drinking buddy? If they don’t drink, which drunk friend would they watch over?
It used to be Ariadne and Calliope before they both died, and sometimes she’d even sneak a bottle to Celestia, but now she could see herself getting blackout drunk with Luci. And she would love to see Reyelle get drunk.
Who would be their go-to character in Clue?
She literally is Miss Scarlett. She’d fight anyone and everyone for her.
If they ever had to go to college, what major would they pick?
Law. She’d be that corrupt judge that takes bribes to let someone off and ends up convicting them anyway. Also her personal hero would be Elle Woods but like… a villainous Elle Woods.
Do they have a signature color(s)?
Red and gold.
What would be their favorite vine?
“Can I have glass of wine?”
“Ma’am this is Starbucks.”
“Sorry… a Venti glass of wine”
If they had a social media account, what would it be about?
She’d be instafamous for her slightly revealing selfies, thistblogging about Reyelle, and complaining about everyone in her party (except Reyelle). Also a lot shading Roman. Reyelle and Roman make up 50% of her posts for opposite reasons.
Who would they invite to be their best man/maid of honor at their wedding?
If her crew was alive it would have been Ariadne or Calliope, but she’s still holding out that Celestia is still alive and wants her to be her maid of honor. Otherwise, she could see maybe Luci being her maid of honor once she gets over her grudge at the Wonder Twins for sending her on this adventure.
Alternatively, who’s best man/maid of honor would they be?
It would have been the abovementioned crewmembers, but now she can’t see herself being a maid of honor to anyone. She’s down for just being the best dressed at a wedding.
What would be the title of their sex tape/mixtape?
‘Is that a sword or are you just happy to see me? Oh, it’s both.’
If there was no prejudice, what time period/place would they love to visit?
Talia would fit amazingly into the 1920s. The debauchery, the drinking, the sexual freedom, the impending doom.
What three words would they use to describe themself?
‘Better Than You’
What three words would their friends/family use to describe them?
Luci would say Talia’s bold, sarcastic, clever, and defensive. Caldwin would say she’s fierce, intelligent, and intimidating. Reyelle would describe Talia as charming, witty, funny, beautiful, mesmerizing, strong, brave, smart, and amazing. And could stand to steal a little less.
What nicknames do they have? Any particular stories behind them?
If you count her aliases of ‘Adalie’, ‘Maria’, and ‘Nina’, then those. She was called ‘Doll’ by plenty of people as a child and will cut out your tongue if you call her that now. When she was with her previous girlfriend, she called her ‘Tal’ or ‘Tallie’, but she really only goes by ‘Tal’, if that.
Do they consider themself a good person? Why or why not?
Not by any stretch of the imagination. She knows she’s been an awful person since birth. But she doesn’t care (she cares a little bit).
If they were a cryptid, what would they be?
Jersey Devil. Life of the party and always ready to drown her feelings in alcohol.
What is the one thing they wish they could’ve said to a loved one, but never did?
She wishes desperately she could have said goodbye to her crew one last time, especially Ariadne, Calliope, and Celestia.
What would they tell their ten year old self?
‘You have to be a better daughter. Everything that happens to you is just because you’re bad now.’
Who would be on their team in an all out prank war? Who would they be against?
Usually Talia is a ‘every woman for herself’ type of person, but she would nab Reyelle just because she doesn’t want to hurt her and would definitely enlist Celestia and Cordelia because she’s not super keen on hurting kids. But watch the fuck out Roman, the Wonder Twins, and whatever the fuck Jerome is.
Can they drive a car? Are they good at it? (If cars don’t exist, would they be able to drive if they existed?)
She’d be a pretty good driver. She’s a great navigator and knows her way around a ship, so the translation would stick.
Tell the story behind their most stupid injury/scar.
When she wore high heels for the first time and tried dancing, she spun too fast and fell and broke her ankle. She was around seven.
What word(s) would they freeze up at if someone said it to them?
‘Doll’. It’s happened before, and it’s probably bound to happen again.
Who is someone that they don’t talk to much, but would probably get along with?
She doesn’t super talk to Cordelia just because she doesn’t know how to act around kids, but she wants to protect her. Fuck Jerome though or whatever his name is.
Have they ever done something they think is unforgivable?
Being a bad daughter. Killing and plundering? Yeah she can forgive herself for that. But being a disobedient child? That’s too far.
What type of soda would be their favorite?
A classy Vanilla Cream Soda with bourbon.
What do they want more than anything?
Her goddamn crew back.
What is their fatal flaw?
Girl doesn’t even know about the trauma in her life and chooses to ignore it and steal and kill instead. It’s why she’s neutral evil.
What Greek God would they be most like?
Aphrodite, goddess of beauty and love.
Who do they looks the most up to?
She still looks up to her mom for being able to run an empire and still have to deal with her.
If they had to pick between their best friend or significant other, who would they pick?
She’s only known Reyelle for a week and a half but if anything happened to her, she’d kill everyone in this party, everyone else in the world, and then herself.

obscure asks for the lil baby dwarfin
What convenience store food would be their go-to at a 7-11 (Fantasy or otherwise)?
Those little nutella and pretzel packets. She always has major cravings for salty and sweet things.
Who is their drinking buddy? If they don’t drink, which drunk friend would they watch over?
She is much too young to drink, even though her mom is literally known for being drunk, but when she was older, she’d feel safe around Xo and Uncle Tarel, and when she meets the group, would probably feel the most comfortable drinking around Reyelle since she seems the most levelheaded out of everyone.
Who would be their go-to character in Clue?
Professor Plum. She likes his glasses and his name sounds nice. She’s a big fan of alliterations.
If they ever had to go to college, what major would they pick?
Environmental Science. She loves the forest more for the greenery and trees than animals. So she’d want to work in conservation.
Do they have a signature color(s)?
Green, white, and red. She’s basically the Mexican flag. Or Christmas.
What would be their favorite vine?
‘Where’s all the Pepis? Awww aw yeah! Pepis Room’.
If they had a social media account, what would it be about?
Archery trick shots, videos of Xo doing tricks in Wild Shape, so many aesthetic pictures of the forest when she works, and shading Uncle Tarel.
Who would they invite to be their best man/maid of honor at their wedding?
She doesn’t have many friends her age, but she would probably ask Xo, since they’ve been there for her since the beginning. Depending how much she gets along with Cordelia when they meet, maybe her since they’re the closest in age?
Alternatively, who’s best man/maid of honor would they be?
She can’t see herself as anyone’s just because she’s perpetually the baby of the group, but she hopes she can be someone’s maid of honor someday.
What would be the title of their sex tape/mixtape?
‘Shot Through the Heart and You’re To Blame’
If there was no prejudice, what time period/place would they love to visit?
She doesn’t think about it that often anymore, but she does wish she could go back to her home village even though she knows there’s nothing for her there. Her family and sister are dead and all her new family is with her now.
What three words would they use to describe themself?
Small, Brave, Sneaky
What three words would their friends/family use to describe them?
Xo would say ‘My beautiful dwarphan daughter who’s never done anything wrong in her life ever and I know this and I love her’. Others would say feisty, brave, resourceful, and intelligent.
What nicknames do they have? Any particular stories behind them?
Yaya is the biggest one for her, given by Xo. She was also called “The Dwarphan” once when Xo wasn’t sure what to call her.
Do they consider themself a good person? Why or why not?
Yeah, she’s done a couple of bad things, but she knows that objectively there are people way worse than her.
If they were a cryptid, what would they be?
Bigfoot. Sneaky, doesn’t like to draw attention, but would have a very good reason to.
What is the one thing they wish they could’ve said to a loved one, but never did?
She wishes she was older when she lost her birth family so she could have comprehended that they had died.
What would they tell their ten year old self?
She’s thirteen now so it would only be talking to herself a couple years ago, but if she was talking to her six year old self she would say ‘You are braver than you think and you are going to get through this. You’re smarter than them. You’re smarter than all of them.’
Who would be on their team in an all out prank war? Who would they be against?
Her momma Xo of course, and probably her Aunt Mae and Aunt Breda. She would of course be against Uncle Tarel because it’s a family rule that although Uncle Tarel is her favorite uncle and is Xo’s best friend, she must always prove that she’s better than him in everything from Fantasy Mario Kart to multiplication tables.
Can they drive a car? Are they good at it? (If cars don’t exist, would they be able to drive if they existed?)
Nope, but she’d get illegal driving lessons from Xo, who also can’t drive a car. She’s too small to see over the steering wheel anyway.
Tell the story behind their most stupid injury/scar.
When she first went with Xo she was about three, and when Xo showed her a bow and arrow for the first time, she tried to eat an arrow and got a scar on her lip.
What word(s) would they freeze up at if someone said it to them?
‘Valentina’, ‘Caravan’, ‘Fire’
Who is someone that they don’t talk to much, but would probably get along with?
She would probably get along with Cordelia, Caldwin, and Reyelle when they meet. She’d think that Reyelle is a precious angel who she will protect.
Have they ever done something they think is unforgivable?
Yes. She hasn’t even told Xo what she did. But she knows if she wanted to be free, she had to do it (you know she had to do it to em)
What type of soda would be their favorite?
Pineapple soda.
What do they want more than anything?
To live a safe, comfortable life with her mom where they don’t have to worry about expenses.
What is their fatal flaw?
She’s very brash and will tell you straight up what she’s feeling, which is good because you don’t have to play cat and mouse getting her to open up, but she will also tell you that she hates you and to go eat four assholes to your face.
What Greek God would they be most like?
Artemis, goddess of the hunt.
Who do they looks the most up to?
Her adopted mother and very best friend, Xochitl.
If they had to pick between their best friend or significant other, who would they pick?
She doesn’t have a significant other, but there is nothing she can think of that she would betray Xo for. They’ve done so much for her that she just can’t fathom ever going against her mom.

ABCs for the Dwarphen
I’ll answer these for her as she will appear in EoE
A: Aptitude
1. what are your oc’s natural abilities, things they’ve been doing since young?
She’s always been a fairly good runner, and when she first was taken in by Xo, she took her mother’s bow from her home. So she’s been doing that since around four or so.
2. what activities have they participated in?
Professional archery in a sense, helping Xo run their brewery business, and now in her job as a bounty hunter.
3. what abilities do they have that they’ve worked for?
When she was a little kid still travelling with Xo, she had trouble distinguishing which forest berries or plants were safe to eat, and up until her job now she has people watching her telling what to eat and what’s safe. She’s had to learn how to learn recognizes which foods are safe to eat and which ones are poisonous.
4. what things are they bad at?
*Xo voice* Eating any fucking green food. But in all seriousness, she’s bad at keeping track of time. She could think she’s running around town for just three hours until Xo is coming after her in tears because she actually been gone for ten.
5. what is their most impressive talent?
Archery by far. She made a name for herself in her skills years ago, which is how they were able to reunite with Xo.
B: Basics
1. what is their hair color?
Dark brown, very close to black.
2. what is their eye color?
Dark brown.
3. how tall are they?
3′5
4. how old are they?
13
5. how much do they weigh?
130 lbs
C: Comfort
1. how do they sit in a chair?
Criss cross, or with one leg cross over the other.
2. in what position do they sleep?
She’s used to sleeping either straight up and down to conserve space or in fetal position.
3. what is their ideal comfort day?
Dressing in just pajama pants and shorts and falling asleep to the sound of rain while listening to music play. She doesn’t get a ton of those.
4. what is their major comfort food? why?
Chile con Queso. She remembers her birth mom giving it to her when she was a baby and it’s the only thing she has left to connect with her birth family.
5. who is the best at comforting them when down?
Xochitl by far. There’s a lot of thing she has to thank them for, but helping her through her trauma is definitely the biggest. They’ll just hold her and braid her hair and sing to her.
D: Decoration
1. how would they decorate a house if they had one under their name?
First of all, she’d choose to live in a tree house that sprawled across the tree tops, but if she had to live in a normal house, she would still choose one close to nature with lots of house plants and little critters running about.
2. how would they decorate their child’s room?
Listen, Yaretzi is a 13 year old girl. Do you really think she’s not going to want to give her kids the coolest room ever where your room is a treehouse and the floor looks like grass? On top of that she would give all her kids stuffed animals of woodland creatures because she’s that dedicated to theme.
3. how do they decorate their own room?
She just recently got her own room (though she still sleeps in Xo’s bed a lot) but it’s fairly small and has her bed in one corner with a sad attempt at a canopy by Xo, a small shelf that has all of her dolls and book, and small desk that has a little notebook that Xo bought her for her birthday.
4. what type of clothes and accessories do they wear?
At home she wears a similar shirt to Xo (off the shoulder white peasant blouse) and a long flowy skirt, but in the field she wears dark trousers, her blouse, a thick overcoat, and a bandana of some kind to keep her hair out of her face.
5. do they like makeup/nail/beauty trends?
She likes painting her nail, but putting on makeup reminds her of being forced to wear makeup for her slave family. 
E: External Personality
1. does the way they do things portray their internal personality?
Pretty much. She’s usually very honest with her personality, which means that you will know firsthand whether she likes you or not.
2. do they do things that conform to the norm?
She did it as a slave to stay safe and not cause waves, but Yaya has a free spirit that doesn’t really care if people think she’s out there.
3. do they follow trends or do their own thing?
She’s like her mom and simply doesn’t give a fuck what others think and does her own thing. She only follows trends if her life’s in danger.
4. are they up-to-date on the internet fads?
Nah, she’s more likely to run outside and play in literal mud than go on the internet, if it existed.
5. do they portray their personality intentionally or let people figure it outon their own?
Usually what you see is what you get, so the personality she displays is how she really is.
F: Fun
1. what do they do for fun?
Run in the woods barefoot and try to climb the tallest tree. But if she is confined to the city, she actually really loves pulling pranks on her family and friends. It helps when your best friend is a bear.
2. what is their ideal party?
Everyone in their pajamas playing charades or Never Have I Ever/Truth or Dare. She is a fan of party games.
3. who would they have the most fun with?
Xo, her Uncle Tarel, and Auntie Ellie.
4. can they have fun while conforming to rules?
Yeah. Most of what she does for fun is legal and it’s only her job that’s technically illegal. She’s more willing to follow rules than Xo is.
5. do they go out a lot?
Out to party, no, but she definitely leaves the house just to wander around the woods.
G: Gorgeous
1. what is their most attractive external feature?
She has the most beautiful curly hair you’ve ever seen. Both she and Xo like brushing it out.
2. what is the most attractive part of their personality?
She has the cutest, innocent laugh and laughs with her entire body just because she’s so openly, honestly her. If she likes you, she will let you know and love you til the end.
3. what benefits come with being their friend?
She is that little sister you always wanted to have and will strive to protect you as long as she lives.
4. what parts of them do they like and dislike?
There’s not really a part of her she dislikes physically, except maybe be a little taller because no one takes her seriously as a 3′0 dwarf.
5. what parts of others do they envy?
She does wish she was a little older like her family because they allowed to do whatever they want without supervision, and although she loves Xochitl more than life itself, she wishes she could go her own path without worrying about giving Xo a heart attack every time she falls from a tree.
H: Heat
1. do they rather a hot or cold room?
Cold. She likes being a blanket burrito and cuddling next to either her mom or a bear.
2. do they prefer summer or winter?
Summer. It’s when more people are out shopping and usually it’s the season where she gets more offers at her job. And since it’s festival season, Xo usually has to pay more attention to their customers than her.
3. do they like the snow?
She didn’t get to experience it a lot since a lot of her childhood was spent down south, but the few times she did experienced it, she loved it. There was once a particularly bad snowstorm in her current town and she and Xo made snowpeople and had a snowball fight. Of course Xo let her win the snowball fight even though against anyone else they are ruthless.
4. do they have a favorite summer activity?
Running in the forest for hours barefoot or climbing trees. She likes feeling tall.
5. do they have a favorite winter activity?
Drinking spiced hot chocolate.
I: In-the-closet
1. what is their sexuality?
Bisexual
2. have they ever questioned their sexuality?
No, she never really thought about it and just thought she’d get a crush when she was ready.
3. have they ever questioned their gender?
No, she’s always been comfortable in her gender.
4. would/was their family be okay with them being LGBT?
Absolutely. Their mom is a nonbinary pansexual dwarf, and honestly there is little she could do that Xo would be mad at her for.
5. how long would/did it take for them to come out?
She didn’t come out in the traditional sense. She asked Xo about who they liked and when they said they liked all kinds of people, Yaretzi nodded and said that she does to. Xo was very accepting of her daughter and her relationships, on the one stipulations that she doesn’t date a fucking bard. Because her experience with Arzan was enough to scar them for life.
J: Joy
1. what makes them happy?
Being in the woods, archery, and listening to her family’s stories.
2. who makes them happy?
Xochitl, Buttons, and her friends at her last job.
3. are there any songs that bring them joy?
If modern music existed, it would be ‘Whatever it Takes’ by Imagine Dragons, and ‘Renegades’ by X Ambassadors.
4. are they happy often?
Yeah, for the most part. She’s a bit saltier than she should be at that age, but she’s not flat out sad.
5. what brings them the most joy in the world?
Archery and being out in the wilderness.
K: Kill
1. have they ever thought about suicide?
Nope, if she did it would have been right after she was kidnapped, but she was too young to think about death.
2. have they ever thought about homicide?
Only in passing, but the thought always left her mind before she could really think about murder.
3. if they could kill anyone without punishment, would they? who?
The slavers who kidnapped her, (she technically did kill her owner without punishment), and anyone who ever upsets her mom.
4. who would miss them if they died?
It has been proven that Xo would be broken beyond repair, and Yaretzi knows that Xo’s friends would probably be sad too.
5. who would be happy they died, anyone?
Honestly, probably the family that she used to serve as a slave under.
L: Lemons
1. what is their favorite fruit?
Blueberries. Once she got sick by eating too many blueberries.
2. what is their least favorite fruit?
Kiwis. They make her mouth hurt.
3. are there any foods they hate?
Pretty much any and all vegetables, especially mushrooms.
4. do they have any food intolerances?
Tree nuts. Which in her line of work, sucks.
5. what is their favorite food?
Chile Con Queso, and pretty much anything spicy.
M: Maternal
1. would they want a daughter or a son?
She’s too young to think about having children, but she wouldn’t mind raising a kid when she’s much, much older, and wouldn’t mind either gender.
2. how many children do they want?
Depending if she had someone to help, max four.
3. would they be a good parent?
Yeah, she’d try her best to find the medium between strict and laidback, kinda like Xo has done (Xo honestly is a great parent, Yaya just can’t be contained).
4. what would they name a son? what would they name a daughter?
She’d definitely name her sons after the two men who helped her most in her life: Teodulo, her father, or Revan, the man that helped her escape slavery (and possibly Tarel). For daughters, she’d name after her mom, Valentina, her little sister, Pacifica, her current mom Xo, or even her Auntie Ellie.
5. would they adopt?
It’s how she was able to find Xo, so absolutely.
N: Never Have I Ever
1. what would they never do?
Actively betray her mom. There was nothing you could offer her that would make her go against Xo.
2. what have they never done that they want to do?
She wants to befriend a panther or another big cat. She’d probably die, but she’d die happy.
3. is there anything they absolutely can’t believe people do?
Keep slaves obviously, and also dislike animals. What’s to hate about animals? They’re perfection in tiny furry bodies.
4. what is the most embarrassing thing they’ve done?
When she was at her first job as a free person, she was riding a horse while standing and trying to shoot at a target, and the horse got spooked and bucked, her, making her dive head first into horse shit. She was seven years old.
5. have they done anything they thought they’d never do?
Kill people.
O: Optimism
1. are they optimistic or pessimistic?
She’s usually optimistic, even if it’s hidden under a snarky tone. Despite the trauma that Yaya’s faced, she finds the future hopeful.
2. are they openly optimistic, throwing it on others?
Nah, she keeps her optimism to herself unless someone asks for it. She’s all for people following their own philosophy.
3. are they good at giving advice?
She tries her best, but she’s 13 and all the people in her life are at least in their late 30s at best and at worst like mid 100s. But because she’s pragmatic, the advice tends to be sound.
4. is there anyone in their life that throws optimism on them?
Probably Auntie Breda. She agreed with Xo when they said that Breda was one of the most optimistic people that Xo had ever met. And she is glad for it, since the rest of Xo’s friends tend to be on the angstier side.
5. were they always optimistic?
Yeah, it’s been her personal philosophy since childhood with her birth parents that there is always something better in the future, so it’s important not to lose hope. While that has helped her look on the bright side of things, it kinda worked backwards because now Yaretzi is never content and that is the biggest reason why she tries to work for something more.
P: Personality
1. what is their best personality trait?
It actually probably would be her youthful attitude and optimism because god knows that Xo isn’t optimistic.
2. what is their worst personality trait?
Brutal honesty. If she doesn’t like you, she will let you know and you will know it in an instant.
3. what of their personality do others love?
Xo loves her endless energy and optimism, and of course her cheekiness and sass.
4. what of their personality do others envy?
Xo envies their daughter’s ability to be honest and love herself completely (though they wouldn’t have it any other way).
5. do they hate anything about their personality/about other’s personalities?
She dislikes people who hide their true feelings and put up a front just to get people to like them.
Q: Questions
1. do they ask for help?
Yeah, mainly from Xochitl or any of her other family. She usually only asks for help from someone she trusts.
2. do they ask questions in class?
Yes, just so she can do her tasks perfectly and not get in trouble. She was very dedicated to not making mistakes so no one would yell at her or punish her.
3. do they answer questions that make them a little uncomfortable?
She will just because she thinks she doesn’t have anything to hide, but she won’t want to answer it.
4. do they ask weird questions?
Yeah. When she was little and just met Arzan and Mae, she asked them if they know where their earholes go because they don’t have earlobes. She also asked Tarel why he doesn’t have hair on one half of his head (Xo answered that it was because Buttons’ mom at the other half)
5. are they curious?
Yeah, it’s about 90% of why she gets in trouble with Xo. Xo of course understands that kids should be able to run around and get dirty, but they’re still dealing with the trauma of losing Yaretzi twice when she was a little kid.
R: Rules
1. do they follow rules?
She tries to. When she was a slave she followed the rules as close as she could so she wouldn’t get punished, and now she wants to be as good as a child as she can for Xochitl, but she does lies in order to do her job.
2. would they be a strict or laid-back parent?
Given how Xo struggles to keep the line between letting their child live her life and keeping a close eye so she doesn’t go missing again, Yaretzi thinks she’d be a laid back parent but still be open in case her child wants to talk to her about stuff that’s bothering them.
3. have they ever been consequenced for breaking a rule?
Only once, when she snuck out of the house to try to go to a festival that was happening a town over. She knew that Xo wouldn’t let her go because it was winter and there was storm coming that would be brutal, but she had enough faith for herself to go. Of course, she got caught in the storm and Xo barged in like an angry mother to come save her and Yaya had seen that rage at those who tried to harm her, but had never seen it directed at her. Of course, Yaya got sick and wasn’t allowed to leave the house for three weeks.
4. have they broken any rules they now regret breaking?
She regrets breaking the above because she feels extremely guilty about using Xo’s trust in her against them.
5. do they find any rules they/others follow absolutely ridiculous?
She hated the work she had to do as a slave. As far as roles went, it was all menial work and the other slaves made sure she didn’t get anything that would pout her in danger, but she can’t just understand why slavery is a thing.
S: Streets
1. are they street-smart?
One of the many Xo’s taught her is that the world is full of both very bad and very good people, but you never know who is which when you meet them. So always be wary.
2. would they give money to someone on the streets?
Every time she goes out, she tries to. She keeps most if it so she and Xo can feed themselves, but at least 10% of her money she tries to give out.
3. have they ever gotten in a fight on the streets?
No, she’s always been a good runner and a smart girl that if she senses danger, she will run the other way.
4. has anything happened to them on the streets?
No, she’s always had people to look out for her, unless you count when she was kidnapped and sold into slavery.
5. are they cautious when out?
Absolutely. It’s one of the few rules Xo has for her along with ‘Always be back before sundown’, ‘Never go with anyone no matter what they say they have’, and ‘Always beat Tarel at anything involving accuracy just so I can tease him later’.
T: Truth
1. are they honest?
She’s usually brutally honest, unless she’s lying to save someone (or lying to Xo about what she really does all day). But for the most part she will say exactly what’s on her mind whether that’s good or bad.
2. can they tell if someone is lying?
Oh yeah. Girl was taught to be kind, but wary of everyone, so she has a +6 to insight. If she thinks you’re bullshitting her, she will find out.
3. is it obvious when they’re lying?
Not really. Probably to people who are naturally distrusting she would be found out quick, but in the case of lying to Xo, she knows that her mom cares so much about her that they’d believe just about anything she told them just because they believe she has never done anything wrong in her life, ever.
4. have they lied about anything they regret lying about?
She doesn’t necessarily regret lying to Xo about her job, but she does feel incredibly guilty about it because if her mom knew how her little Yaya was getting them bills, they’d probably have a heart attack.
5. have they told truths that have been spread against their will?
Not really. She’s been lucky that most stuff about her life has been kept secret. Xo wants the both of them to live in as much anonymity as possible, and so far that hasn’t been an issue.
U: Underdog
1. have they been bullied?
Definitely, especially in both the places where she was forced to work as a slave.
2. have they bullied anyone?
Nah, Yaya knows how detrimental bullying can be and vows not to do it to anyone. Except possibly Uncle Tarel because she’s just that niece.
3. have they been physically attacked by a bully?
When she was kidnapped by the slavers, she got tackled to the ground and nearly choked out.
4. have they ever been doubted?
When she worked for her first slave family and escaped, the people she left with just planned on having her work in organizational work but then saw how stellar she was at archery.
5. have they surprised people with being good at something?
She surprised almost everyone at being and archer prodigy. Also being good at murder?
V: Vomit
1. do they vomit often?
Nah, she’s got a stomach of steel. She’s worked with enough animals and their shit to keep any food down.
2. do they get lots of stomach aches?
Nope. The only type of sicknesses Yaretzi gets usually is sniffles and head colds.
3. are they good at comforting someone ill?
She’s decent at it. She tried comforting her sister when she had the plague that eventually killed Yaya’s entire family, but since then she’s usually been the youngest everywhere she went, so never really had the practice.
4. what do they like as far as comfort goes?
When she gets head colds, she really likes Xo making her soup or cider and just being tucked in and hugged.
5. do they burp, cough, or hiccup most when nauseous? when vomiting?
She usually does little burps when vomiting. She hates it.
W: Water
1. do they drink enough water?
Xo makes sure that she does, and when she was living with her past caretakers before she and Xo were reunited, they all took her under their wing and made sure she drank enough water.
2. have they learned to swim?
When she was with her previous job, when there was a free day, the people she worked with would teach her how to swim in the nearby stream.
3. do they like to swim?
She likes swimming in the ponds and lakes in the forest, but she really only does it to bathe because she doesn’t like swimming alone.
4. can they dive?
Nah, she’s got the fear of what if she gets stuck upside down.
5. can they swim without holding their nose?
She can, just not for long.
X: Xylophone
1. what is their favorite genre of music?
R&B and anything with a strong bass guitar.
2. do they have a favorite song?
“Rude Boy’ by Rihanna.
3. do they have a favorite band/artist/singer?
If modern music existed, Destiny’s Child or Rihanna.
4. can they sing well?
Her birth mom was a great singer and passed that talent along to Yaya. She doesn’t show it off that much, but it’s enough that one of the things Xo always praises her about (besides everything) is her singing.
5. can they rap?
Girl loves R&B, you bet your ass that the baby dwarphan can rap.
Y: You
1. how old were you when you created them?
18. She was made at the same time as Xochitl.
2. what inspired you to create them?
I wanted Xo to have a “Lee and Clementine” relationship, and thus the dwarfin was born.
3. were they different when they were first created?
I mean, in the sense that she developed as a person as she grew up, but how I intended her to be, not really. I wanted her to be more idealistic as a small child and be more realist and hardened as she grew up. She’s still definitely more idealistic than Xo is, but she’s a salted caramel.
4. do you enjoy writing them more than other characters?
I haven’t really done much with Yaya, but I do love her as a character. I really like playing with child characters because they’re not super mature but they can be major ass kickers.
5. what’s your favorite thing about them?
She just wants her mom to be happy and not have to worry about her. But by striving to fix that, she ends up making Xo worry about her more because of how dangerous Yaretzi’s job is.
Z: Zebra
1. what’s their favorite animal?
Deer. She likes watching them in the forest when she’s working.
2. do they like animals?
She loves animals. Her mom’s a druid and at a lot of her previous jobs she had to work with animals.
3. cats or dogs?
Doggos. She loves big animals and like Xo, feels at peace when surrounded by animals.
4. what’s their dream pet?
She’s not going to lie, she thinks it’d be rad to have a tiger as a pet. At her old just they had a couple tigers and she loved spending time with them and feeding them.
5. do they have any pets at the moment?
She has Buttons the direbear (no longer a cub anymore), but Xo insists on Yaretzi calling Buttons her sister.

Note
Also all of the ABCs for my pirate wife.
A: Aptitude
1. what are your oc’s natural abilities, things they’ve been doing since young?
She has been training in the art of charm and seduction since she was five. And she’s damn good at it. Girl’s got a +8 to persuasion and deception and an 18 in charisma.
2. what activities have they participated in?
Talia did pretty much everything performative as a child: singing, dancing, acting, standing around looking pretty. It wasn’t until after she became a pirate that her activities upgraded to looting, killing, and having sex for funsies.
3. what abilities do they have that they’ve worked for?
Swordsmanship. When she lived with her mother she wasn’t allowed to even look at weapons, but after she was orphaned she had to learn how to fight and she got good at it.
4. what things are they bad at?
She can read just fine, but was taught that ladies cannot be appreciated for their mind and must focus on the more important things such as beauty and how well you can please others so she finds it difficult to read as a hobby.
5. what is their most impressive talent?
It’s probably a tie between swordsmanship and charm. She learned how to sword fight in a relatively short period of time, but she’s been perfecting her charm since she was a child. She can seduce someone and then rob them blind in no time flat.
B: Basics
1. what is their hair color?

C: Comfort
1. how do they sit in a chair?
Leaned back with only two legs of the chair touching the floor, ankles crossed on top of a table. If she doesn’t look like she’s j chillin all the time, what’s the point?
2. in what position do they sleep?
Usually on her side facing the door with one arm under her pillow, so if she sees anyone coming into her room, there’s a knife ready for her to swing.
3. what is their ideal comfort day?
Sitting on the edge of a beach and letting water run over her toes which a mug of mead in one hand, and Reyelle in the other.
4. what is their major comfort food? why?
Anything chocolate. Particularly chocolate cake because it was one of the meals she shared with her mother that her mother seemed to focus entirely on her.
5. who is the best at comforting them when down?
While captain, it was her first mate Ariadne and her navigator, Calliope. They both seemed to know what Talia had been through even if Talia didn’t know herself, and acted as her older siblings.
D: Decoration
1. how would they decorate a house if they had one under their name?
She never really wants a house just because she’s been on the move her entire life, but if she were to get one, she’d want wide spaces so she could run and move about, and would decorate her home with her spoils of her robberies and a couple hanging lights because there’s nothing like a good light feature.
2. how would they decorate their child’s room?
A whole walk in closet so they can choose whatever they want to wear, a ton of “My First Weapons” toys including a toy sword and toy gun, any stuffed animals or dolls that they’d like, and a full library.
3. how do they decorate their own room?
Her old room on the ship was decked out in many of the ornate blankets and pillows that she stole throughout the years as well as her desk which usually stashes more plundered treasure and a few liquor bottles. She makes sure her bed is next to the window (which is locked from the inside) in case she needs to escape during the night.
4. what type of clothes and accessories do they wear?
Lots of long red dresses with frilly sleeves, long thigh high or knee length boots, a little tiara she stole from a noble, various ear piercings, and of course her snake choker.
5. do they like makeup/nail/beauty trends?
Honey, she invented the beauty trends.
E: External Personality
1. does the way they do things portray their internal personality?
Not at all, and it’s a mystery to even Talia. She thinks what you see is what you get, but that’s just because her real emotions are hidden deep under six layers of sarcasm and frozen exteriors.
2. do they do things that conform to the norm?
She despises having to conform to the norm and would much rather go her own path.
3. do they follow trends or do their own thing?
Nope, she loves doing her own things and causing a scene.
4. are they up-to-date on the internet fads?
If internet existed, she would be at the forefront, but since internet doesn’t exist, she just has to start trends on her own.
5. do they portray their personality intentionally or let people figure it out on their own?
She lets people figure out on their own, but it takes a while because Talia is very particular about how she portrays herself. She wants you to think she’s a stone cold bitch who would kiss you and then kill you, which is true, but even Talia doesn’t know she’s more complex than that.
F: Fun
1. what do they do for fun?
Stealing from the rich and giving to herself, sleeping with beautiful women, sometimes both at once. Also she loves doing Reyelle for fun ;)
2. what is their ideal party?
One that she doesn’t remember the next morning.
3. who would they have the most fun with?
Reyelle obviously, and probably even Luci if she didn’t have her moral compass of a brother.
4. can they have fun while conforming to rules?
I mean… yeah but where’s the fun in that. Her “conforming to the rules” type of fun is just getting drunk on the ship with her crew.
5. do they go out a lot?
Yeah, the Rusted Serpents make a point to go to a tavern and party wherever they stop to plunder.
G: Gorgeous
1. what is their most attractive external feature?
Her everything. Though if there had to be a specific feature, probably her facial structure. She has a very symmetrical, well structured face. And it knocks everyone away.
2. what is the most attractive part of their personality?
When she actually likes someone, she will drop everything to attend to them, even if she tries to mask it under sarcasm. When she and Reyelle get close, Reyelle could basically ask Talia to do anything, and she’d do it.
3. what benefits come with being their friend?
You basically can have everything for free because she will steal it for you.
4. what parts of them do they like and dislike?
Physically she loves every bit of herself because let’s be honest, she’s heartstopping. But she doesn’t like that she goes into quiet spells because she thinks it makes her weak.
5. what parts of others do they envy?
She does envy that other people get to have actual friends they know would be there for her. She’s a little jealous of the Wonder Twins that they have each other.
H: Heat
1. do they rather a hot or cold room?
Cold. She can handle cold, given she’s always at sea with the cool nights, but being hot and sweaty just makes her feel gross.
2. do they prefer summer or winter?
Summer. People are more likely to wear looser clothes
3. do they like the snow?
She was never allowed to play in the snow, but she always thought it was pretty. She hasn’t seen snow since she was child though since she’s always on the ocean where it doesn’t snow.
4. do they have a favorite summer activity?
Tanning on the deck and going swimming in the ocean.
5. do they have a favorite winter activity?
Drinking mulled apple cider and snuggling up to Reyelle.
I: In-the-closet
1. what is their sexuality?
She’s been a blazing lesbian since the dawn of time.
2. have they ever questioned their sexuality?
She was only recently been able to act on her sexuality, but she knew that she found men a little disgusting.
3. have they ever questioned their gender?
Nope.
4. would/was their family be okay with them being LGBT?
She’s been with multiple genders since she was young, but was always expected to marry a man and she has a feeling they probably wouldn’t take kindly to her marrying a woman.
5. how long would/did it take for them to come out?
She never came out to her family, and simply put to her crew (which is mostly female anyway) that if anyone had a problem with her sleeping with women, they were welcome to walk off the plank right now.
J: Joy
1. what makes them happy?
Plundering, drinking, and women. And her true love be the sea.
2. who makes them happy?
Reyelle, Ariadne, Calliope, and Celestia. Though, now just the moonbeam since Ariadne and Calliope are dead and Celestia is missing.
3. are there any songs that bring them joy?
‘Primadonna’ by Marina and the Diamonds, and ‘Money Power Glory’ by Lana Del Rey
4. are they happy often?
She thinks she’s happy often, but plenty of people would disagree.

Sailing.
K: Kill
1. have they ever thought about suicide?
A couple times her in her life: once in the ‘Dove Room’, once when she was orphaned, and lastly when she saw all her friends hung.
2. have they ever thought about homicide?
Talia’s at that age where she only has one thing on her mind: homicide.
3. if they could kill anyone without punishment, would they? who?
The fucking assholes who stole her boat and killed her crew.
4. who would miss them if they died?
Probably no one. She’s hoping Reyelle but wouldn’t blame her if she didn’t.
5. who would be happy they died, anyone?
Probably everyone, if she’s going to be honest.

She thinks she could only handle one, if that.

If she did have a child, she’d try her best and would do everything to keep her child safe, including threaten other children who dared to be mean to the only good thing in her life.
4. what would they name a son? what would they name a daughter?
Son probably ‘Nicolas’, ‘Alexander’, or ‘Christopher’. Something strong and classy. For a girl, she’d probably use one of her aliases with either ‘Adalie’, ‘Maria’, or ‘Nina’.
5. would they adopt?
Yeah, since she’s never having sex with a man again.
N: Never Have I Ever
1. what would they never do?
Go back to the ‘Dove Room’ or step foot in a noble’s house unless she was going to steal from it.
2. what have they never done that they want to do?
She wants to murder the bitches that took her ship and killed her crew.
3. is there anything they absolutely can’t believe people do?
She doesn’t know how people continue to have an optimistic attitude when everything in the world has pointed to going to shit.
4. what is the most embarrassing thing they’ve done?
Anytime she was having an argument, or in a traumatic situation, she would physically become mute and stay silent for up to days at a time.
5. have they done anything they thought they’d never do?

O: Optimism
1. are they optimistic or pessimistic?
Pessimistic. 
2. are they openly optimistic, throwing it on others?
If anything, she’s openly pessimistic and constantly will say how situations can go wrong.
3. are they good at giving advice?
Please don’t ask Talia for advice unless you’re 100% your friend because any advice she gives will probably be a hidden way of getting to do something for her.
4. is there anyone in their life that throws optimism on them?
It used to be Calliope just because she always felt pity and concern for Talia, but now it would probably have to be Cordelia because that kid is too cheerful for the situation.
5. were they always optimistic?
She never really was optimistic, but her pessimism has grown over the years.
P: Personality
1. what is their best personality trait?
It’s not necessarily a personality trait, but Talia is extremely resourceful and will make the best out of a bad situation, even if it means killing people to do it.
2. what is their worst personality trait?
She is one of the most selfish people you’ll ever meet (at least at the moment). When Roman went missing and everyone except Reyelle went looking for him, she was this close to asking Reyelle if she wanted to hightail it out of there with her and forget any of this ever happened.
3. what of their personality do others love?
Reyelle loves her wit, charm, and soft hear that Talia tries in vain to keep hidden.
4. what of their personality do others envy?
Rey envies her ability to talk so easily to people and apparent laid-back personality.
5. do they hate anything about their personality/about other’s personalities?
She hates pretty much anyone who’s overly optimistic and bubbly because she finds that a little annoying, but she also hates cockiness and an overt attempt to be macho. She also hates people who snitch, Roman.
Q: Questions
1. do they ask for help?
Never unless its a means to steal from someone. She’d go to her grave before she admitted she couldn’t do something.
2. do they ask questions in class?
She tried to ask help when she was tutored, but only if her mother wasn’t around. The tutors made sure to be as specific as possible just so Talia wouldn’t have to speak.
3. do they answer questions that make them a little uncomfortable?
Nope, good luck asking Talia anything she doesn’t want to answer. She will stay silent and keep the secret to the grave.
4. do they ask weird questions?
Usually just to get a rise out of people or to distract them while she robs them. A lot of things Talia does is usually a distraction to rob them.
5. are they curious?
Yes, but never acts on it because she was taught that a lady’s mind should be kept secret.
R: Rules
1. do they follow rules?
Up until she became a pirate, Talia followed every rule she was ever given, but now unless you were a specific person, you can never get her to follow any rule. The only reason she didn’t lie right out to the police is because she was hoping they’d let her go if she complied.
2. would they be a strict or laid-back parent?
She would be an extremely laid back parent. As long as her kid doesn’t talk back or is out for more time than is safe, she would let them get away with literal murder.
3. have they ever been consequenced for breaking a rule?
All the time. Her mother knew exactly how to punish Talia and it worked every time.
4. have they broken any rules they now regret breaking?
She regretted every time she broke any of her mother’s rules.
5. do they find any rules they/others follow absolutely ridiculous?
Any law. What if she just really, really wants something more than another person. By right, she should be able to call it hers.
S: Streets
1. are they street-smart?
Absolutely. Talia would not have survived this long if she wasn’t.
2. would they give money to someone on the streets?
Not willingly unless Rey was with her and then she’d feel so guilty that she’d give a couple coins just to appease her.
3. have they ever gotten in a fight on the streets?
Plenty of times. She once got kicked out of a tavern because she caused a bar fight because a man called her “doll”.
4. has anything happened to them on the streets?
It’s mentioned above that a couple times she was attacked before she joined a crew and it was one of the first times she killed someone. There was also that time they walked on that pile of corpses and they were all arrested.
5. are they cautious when out?
Extremely so. Especially now that she doesn’t have a crew and she’s effectively on her own along with some very strange people.
T: Truth
1. are they honest?
She’s probably lied more in her life than she’s been honest.
2. can they tell if someone is lying?
She’s got a +3 to insight and is usually at least skeptical of everyone she meets, including Reyelle when she first met her. She always takes what people say with a grain of salt just in case they’re using her the same way she’s probably using them.
3. is it obvious when they’re lying?
Nope, pretty much not at all. Like I said, girl’s got a +8 to deception.
4. have they lied about anything they regret lying about?
She does regret lying to Reyelle about taking her aboard the Rusted Serpent to take her around sailing, just to steal from her and leave her stranded. Partially because she feels super guilty that she stole from her only to run into her again, and two because Reyelle really does deserve the world.
5. have they told truths that have been spread against their will?
She absolutely despises whoever knew her last name among the Rusted Serpents and spread it to everyone, because now her party knows who she is, though hasn’t really seemed to feel the sense that they know exactly who she is.
U: Underdog
1. have they been bullied?
It’s less bullying and more mutiny, but when working as a captain, it took a lot to get some people (particularly some of the men working) to trust her in a leadership position and tried to bully her out. It only took being on the business end of a rapier and a threat that she promised to make good on for them to not their bullying in her face.
2. have they bullied anyone?
Oh definitely. She’s bullied some of the first crew, her crew now, and flat out stole from some of her party. She likes bullying Roman though. Just because he’s a dick.
3. have they been physically attacked by a bully?
When she was on her own, some men on the street tried to attack her and pushed her against the wall and it was the first time she killed someone without using a weapon. She basically gouged their eyes out with her bare fingers.
4. have they ever been doubted?
Abso-fucking-lutely. It’s why her ship’s been stolen and two thirds of her crew are dead.
5. have they surprised people with being good at something?
Some of the people on her first crew knew who she was and were extremely surprised (and a little intimidated) by how fast Talia learned how to swordfight.
V: Vomit
1. do they vomit often?
Nope, she’s got a stomach of steel after a couple years at sea. She will only vomit if she sees excessive gore.
2. do they get lots of stomach aches?
Not anymore since she’s used to being at sea, but starting around six or so, she got sick a ton as child and had doctors and nurses see her whenever she wasn’t working.
3. are they good at comforting someone ill?
Not at all. If someone is sick on the ship, you won’t see Talia for days around that person until she’s 110% you’re better. The only person she ever got near when they were sick is Celestia, and that’s because the teen gnome is one of her favorite people.
4. what do they like as far as comfort goes?
She usually doesn’t like to be touched when she’s sick (unless you’re Reyelle) but with Rey she would like having her back rubbed and being kissed on the top of her head.
5. do they burp, cough, or hiccup most when nauseous? when vomiting?
Both cough and hiccup, both of which she hates. She usually sits over a bucket and just feels sad.
W: Water
1. do they drink enough water?
She drinks a lot but none of it’s water. She drinks enough to stay alive and keep her skin clear.
2. have they learned to swim?
She learned to swim as a child, but was retaught as a way to survive by the first crew she joined.
3. do they like to swim?
It’s one of the more relaxing pastimes she has.
4. can they dive?
Yep, sometimes its the only way to get off a ship.
5. can they swim without holding their nose?
Yes, she’s pretty good at overall swimming.
X: Xylophone
1. what is their favorite genre of music?
She actually really loves the tango. Dancing to it, not so much, but she loves the sound.
2. do they have a favorite song?
“El Tango de Roxanne” from Moulin Rouge or “Bad Girls” by M.I.A
3. do they have a favorite band/artist/singer?
If she listened to modern music, it would probably be Lorde, Halsey, or Lorde.
4. can they sing well?
Among other things, she’s a trained singer (mostly for classical opera and genres along that line), so she can sing beautifully.
5. can they rap?
She was never given the chance to learn how to rap because it was deemed ‘unrefined’, but after a lot of practice, she’d be able to pull it off.
Y: You
1. how old were you when you created them?
19? I think I made it in the summer and I didn’t have a name just “half-elf pirate who’s a professional lesbian”
2. what inspired you to create them?
I was just going on a dnd kid making spree (which included my halfling bard Granny), and decided to make a pirate character and I was shook with her beauty.
3. were they different when they were first created?
Her original backstory was a lot less sad and less room to be a reformed asshole, and now I think out of my pcs, her’s is the one that’s most fucked up.
4. do you enjoy writing them more than other characters?
She is very fun to write, especially deciphering between how good should I make her when she is neutral evil right now, and how do I make her not as shitty so she can be better in the future.
5. what’s your favorite thing about them?
She’s sad and gay. Also she’s going to be my first reformed asshole.
Z: Zebra
1. what’s their favorite animal?
Siamese cats
2. do they like animals?
For the most part no. She’s had bad experiences with animals, especially regarding symbols.
3. cats or dogs?
Cats. Dogs are the devil’s anus. Too loud and boisterous. 
4. what’s their dream pet?
Something nice and quiet like a turtle. Though she wouldn’t really mind a cat. It’s fancy and ruthless, just like her.
5. do they have any pets at the moment?
No, though maybe whatever the fuck Jerome is could be considered a pet.

3. When did they lose their virginity?
She hasn’t yet.
4. Was there anything their parents pushed them to do? (e.g. sports, theatre, band)

5. Describe your muse’s worst nightmare.
Being forced to go back to where she came from, or losing control.
6. What is a deal-breaker when it comes to dating someone?
Yelling/exploding at her or generally being abusive. Trying to dictate what she does.

9. What chronic illnesses does your muse have, if any?
Again, if mental illness counts, then depression, anxiety, and PTSD.

11. Does your muse wear glasses/contacts?
She wears glasses.

16. Has your muse ever been hospitalized or institutionalized?
Nope, never for either.

She’s never been taught to pray to anything, and even if she had, at this point she wouldn’t believe there was any higher power looking out for her.
18. Has your muse ever lived in poverty?
Only recently has she had to face the concept of not having money in her name, but even then she’s never really been impoverished.
19. Do they have any distinct voice mannerisms? (e.g. saying ‘like’ or ‘um’ a lot, stutters)

20. Where are your muse’s ancestors from? Do they keep any of their traditions?
Reyelle comes from a very long line of very powerful, very wealthy moon elves. She knows little in the way of specifics about her ancestors, just that her family line is something she’s supposed to be proud of. Until very recently, she kept with all the traditions her parents forced upon her.
21. When did your muse learn about sex?
She knows very little about the concept of sex, apart from the fact that it’s what makes babies. She didn’t learn about it until she was well into her sixties (or her teens, in elf years).

Her freedom.
23. What shoe size is your muse?
Seven.
24. Does your muse hate their middle name? \ What is it?
Her middle name is Calista, and it’s very rarely used, so she doesn’t really have an opinion of it.
25. How many hours a day do they spend on the internet/watching TV?

26. Does your muse have any trophies?
None to speak of.

“It was my fault. All of it was my fault. I’m a bad daughter. It was my fault.”

She was never allowed pets, though she often tried to sneak them into her room, especially if they were stray cats. She was usually caught.

Talia. She stole it at the same time she stole Reyelle’s coin purse. And her heart.
31. What is your muse’s first memory?
She distinctly remembers the first time someone ever referred to her as “beautiful.” It was her mother, and Reyelle was still a very small child, dolled up so he parents could take her to a fancy party of some sort. Her mother said it like having a beautiful daughter was the proudest achievement of her life— a far cry from the way Reyelle was often called “beautiful” as she grew older.
32. How does your muse feel about crocs?
She would think they were rather odd and likely be curious about them, but otherwise have no opinion.
33. What are your muse’s biggest pet peeves?

It was so long ago she hardly remembers it now, but she was still a child at the time, still at an age when her parents spoiled her rotten. They gave her her first horse that birthday, and treated her like absolute royalty.

40. Has your muse ever been to a concert?
She’s seen live music performances before, and generally enjoyed them.
41. What is your muse’s favorite holiday?

42. Does your muse reply to scary chain emails/messages?
They would absolutely terrify her and she would send them along without a second thought. She’s too trusting to question whether they’re real or not.
43. Describe the first person your muse remembers losing.
She’s never really lost anyone that she remembers.
44. Would your muse ever roleplay?

What is Talia's opinion on all these odd people she's just met
Talia’s mantra in life is to keep people at an arm’s distance soshe doesn’t have the chance to get close to them and either have them betrayher or feel guilty when she betrays them. Now that’s she’s being forced to tagalong on a suicide mission she wants no part of, she has a couple of thoughtson her new “companions”.
Reyelle
Talia never meant to run into Reyelle again, especially afterhow bad she felt stealing from her. She was such a beautiful, kind lost souland if it wasn’t for work, she would have probably steered clear of her. Nowthat they’re on this adventure together and have seen many horrors that Talia wouldn’t wish on any normal person all in one day, she wishes she could shield the moonbeam from the horrors of the world. However, this doesn’t change the fact that as soon as she’s free to go, she’s getting on her ship and hopefully will never run into her ever again.
Roman
Roman first seemed to be a possible ally that Talia could get behind, and even helped him steal things from the manion while they were looking for clues. She appreciated that he helped look after Reyelle even though some jealousy was starting to brew. All good feelings were thrown out the window, however, the moment Roman opened his mouth and threw her under the bus for being a pirate. Now she feels disgusted that he would betray her like that especially after he offered her a job, and doesn’t want to be anywhere near him and if were up to her, she would kill him when she got the chance.
Cordelia
If she’s gonna be honest, Talia wants the kid to get as far awayfrom this mess as possible. She’s a sweet kid and is way in over her head, evenif she has help from Jerome/Julliard/Genesis/Gene Wilder/Gerald. I mean. it’salready pretty creepy that a kid is going around talking to dead people with askeleton strapped to her back, but she feels bad Cordelia’s being draggedaround while facing off giant spiders and 8 murders in all in one day.
Luci
Out of everyone in their small crew, Talia definitely respectsLuci the most. Although a little hot headed, she appreciates her candor anddetermination and thinks in another life they could have been crewmates. Ofcourse, now that it’s basically her and the other Wonder Twin’s fault she’sstuck trying to solve a murder she didn’t commit and not being paid for killingthe giant spiders, she’s more than a little pissed.
Caldwin
Caldwin’s definitely got a good head on his shoulders, which Talia definitely respects, but she also thinks he’s too shy for his own good, especially when dealing with as someone as rowdy as his sister. Talia still is wary around other half-elves even with the few half-elves she has as crewmates just because the people she spent her time around were either humans who fetishized her for her elven heritage or elves who scorned her for her human heritage. But she thinks the Wonder Twins have a good handle on things even if they are terrible employers. If they had other pirates not as nice as her, they would’ve been killed already for delaying payment. Which is a shame because he would actually be a pretty decent leader.

What's Tarel's opinions on the mission they have, the rest of the party, and ripped jeans. What's Reyelle's opinion of Talia, dancing, and mystery novels?
Tarel
Absolutely fucking hates that he got roped into this stupid mission for an equally stupid queen. He doesn’t even care about some shitty war and some shitty politics. He really, really just wants to peace the fuck out, but he knows he can’t at this point. Not without causing even more problems for himself, anyway.
Is still a little iffy on the party as a whole. Some he’s warmed up to more than others. Xo he feels like he relates the most to, and he’s decided he’d like to try and help them find their lost kid, if he can. If he could bring the people he lost back, he would. Breda is definitely too good for this world. Ellie is a little bit too much on the quiet side for his tastes, but she is also probably too good for this world. Mae is rad, he likes her style. Arzan often rubs him the wrong way, mostly because he finds him a bit too relatable– with an extra side of dickishness that Tarel doesn’t want to admit he probably has, too. And then the mysterious man, he’s just indifferent to.
Fucking loves ripped jeans. Not even a question.
Reyelle
Is both impressed and intimidated by Talia because she seems so confident in herself. She does worry quite a bit about Talia’s more… roguish tendencies, but she doesn’t consider Talia a bad person or anything. She’s quite fascinated by the fact that Talia sails and has her own ship, and apart from the one time Talia robbed her, so far she’s enjoyed Talia’s company. She also thinks Talia is incredibly beautiful and that gets her a little flustered.
Knows how to dance formally, for sure, but isn’t all that fond of such a stuffy dancing style. She’s never really tried to dance just for fun, so she isn’t sure if she would like it or not.
Has read quite a few mystery novels and tends to enjoy them. Trying to solve mysteries is a good escape from reality.

★★★ for Xo, ★★★ for Talia
Xochitl
 1. One of Xo’s hidden talents is that they’re an amazing dancer, from the historic and ancient folk dancing they learned to do in their village to making up their own dances that they performed in taverns and music halls when they began to travel from town to town. Dancing was one of the only pastimes they had while growing up and was the only way to keep boredom and sadness at bay. When they met Yaretzi, they also taught her how to dance, mainly the folk dance of their village. Ever since Yaya was kidnapped and sold into slavery, Xo hasn’t danced at all and feels sad that they can’t do the one thing they found comfort in as a child.
 2. If it’s not clear with Buttons and Yaya, Xochitl has giant soft spot for small creatures. When they lived on their own, they liked watching mice, squirrels, lizards, and other small forest creatures run across the forest floor, and when they’re bored, uses “talk to animals” to have little conversations with them. It’s one of the things they find peace in, especially before they met Yaya. Now, when the rest of the team is asleep and Xo can’t fall asleep, they also use ‘talk to animals’ just to get closer to Buttons.
 3. Although they are illiterate, they developed their own hieroglyphic language while they lived in their village, eager to have a medium they could claim as their own. When they met Yaya, they taught her their primitive writing system in hopes that if they’re ever able to teach her how to read in the future, she’ll already have a bit of reading and writing experience. It’s also one of the biggest areas of insecurity Xo has as a parent. They know that Yaretzi is a smart kid and is always learning, and feels bad that they are helpless to give Yaya the education they deserve, besides teaching her how to shoot, hunt, and navigate terrain.
Talia
  1. Talia’s nickname as a child was “Doll”, especially by her mother who taught her that to be delicate and beautiful was more important than anything else. To this day, although she sometimes subconsciously tells herself to be more doll-like and an object meant to be viewed with reverence above all else, some unfortunate sailors and creatures have met their fate after they made the mistake of getting her attention by calling her “doll”
  2. Although her relationship with her previous girlfriend, Zaitari was mainly a sexual relationship, Talia feels like her previous captain was the first true friend she ever had. As a child she only time she hung around other children her age that weren’t her slaves were various noble children her mother would take her to see other noble families and that was mostly for extravagent parties and galas where she was shown off to adoring crowds, especially because she was one of the few noble half elves that were in line for the their family’s fortune and not just an illegitamate child. Because she was often told that noble children should be admired for their looks and not their thoughts, Talia never was allowed to actually spend time with the other children. This is why despite the problems she had with Zaitari, Talia still feels like it was the first real relationship of any kind she’s had.
  3. Talia has never mentioned it to anyone, but she does actually care for most of her crew, especially the teenage gnome thief she’s taken on in within the last few months, Celestia. She’s not a warm person by any means necessary, but she snarks a lot less around Celestia and most of her crew than she does around anyone else she meets. If somebody asked her, she would deny it of course because she has a reputation to uphold as the captain of the Rusted Serpents that she is cold and unfeeling and would kill just for the hell of it, but for some members like Celestia, or her navigator Calliope and first mate Ariadne, the three of whom she considers her closest companions, she would die for them, and she would definitely kill for them.

★ - Favorite memory for Xo, ★ - Insecurity for Talia
Xochitl   Xo hasn’t had a lot of happy memories in their life, so it’s no surprise that their fondest moments were during the time they took care of Yaya. While the first time Yaya hit a bullseye was definitely one of the proudest moments they’ve ever had, the one particular moment they remember most was the first time Yaretzi ever called them “Mama” and didn’t correct herself, even though they both knew that Yaya remembered her birth mother. After this moment there was a definite change in their relationship as Xochitl began to think of themself as Yaya’s parent rather than just someone who took her under their wing and Yaya began to call Xo “Mama” a lot more as she began to think of herself as Xo’s daughter than just someone in their care.
Talia   Although its been several years since Talia’s lived as a noblewoman, she still wonders if she’s not cut out to be a leader and pirate, especially one that’s in charge of over 15 crewmates who most, if not all have lived as thieves and pillagers a lot longer than she has, which is only about 7 years. A lot of the ideas she was indoctrinated as a child, such as being seen more as an object to admire and used rather than a person in her own right and the idea that she was born to be a showpiece of beauty, a symbol of her mother’s dynasty, still remain with her and she can’t help but worry that she has no purpose outside of being a picture of beauty and fragility. When she thinks too much in this mindset, Talia tends to get very quiet and not talk for up to days at a time, only talking again after one of her crew manages to get her to open up. No one really knows why their captain has quiet spells, but they know the consequences if someone dares to ask.

Also all of them for the dwarphan
1. What would be their favorite Disney (or other animated) movie?
Yaretzi loves nature like her mom, so any nature-y movie with beautiful scenery she’d adore. She is all about the cinnamon topography so would probably adore movies like Pocahontas and because she’s a sharp shooting baby, would love Robin Hood.
2. What do they usually like for breakfast?
By the time she appears in Eutaria, she is at the age where she eats everything. She tends to favor meatier things like sausages or meat pies, especially since she goes hunting a lot to get food for herself and Xochitl. 
3. What sort of cuddler are they?
Ever since she was small, she’s had people to cuddle with whether it was her birth family, some of her nicer coworkers when she was small, or Xo in her first couple years and in the last few years when they lived together, so she just climbs into people’s laps and sleeps against them. Xo always loves cuddling with their baby girl so they don’t mind at all.
4. How do they say “I love you”?
Yaretzi tends to withhold “I love yous” unless she absolutely loves them, which is still often since she at least loves her mother with all her heart as well as her Uncle Tarel and Aunt Ellie, so she says it a lot around them. She says it more often when she feels guilty, like when she lies to her mother’s face about where she is.
5. What kind of shoes do they wear?
Moccasins or brown boots. She and her mom are boot buddies. Usually when she’s around the house or town she wears moccasins but when she’s working and needs stronger footwear, she opts for boots.
6. What is their favorite accessory?
It’s not technically a wearable accessory, but she’s had her bow since her last job and it’s actually really well crafted and even has her initials on it. It’s almost as tall as her, but it makes her feel safe.
7. Are they more inclined towards fashion or comfort?
She’s more on the fashionable side since she hangs out with Ellie a lot for studying, but she also wears typical Aggan fashion which is off the shoulder white shirt and green long skirt with boots. 
8. What makes them laugh?
She hangs out with Tarel enough that anything he says makes her laugh because he’s a good uncle, really anytime Xo shades bards, and just watching stupid people from the trees.
9. Do they have a favorite flower?
She comes across flowers a lot while working in the forest, but her personal favorite is a poppy because they’re just so colorful and vibrant. She wears it in her hair sometime.
10. Would they be the one to propose to their significant other?
Most likely. She’s always been a bit rambunctious and when she actually gets close to someone, she will want to make sure that she can be with them for as long as she can.
11. What bad habits do they have?
Lying to her mom about her illicit activities she’s done over the most recent months, talking to herself when she’s on the job because she’s lonely, and tracking mud in the house, which gives Buttons something to lick up whenever she comes home.
12. What are their biggest insecurities?
She actually doesn’t have that many insecurities except making sure that she can repay Xo for all they’ve done for her over the years.
13. How do they wear their hair?
She’s cut it short fairly recently, about to her shoulders, and it has a beautiful natural curl, so she ties part of it back with a bandana while she’s working and lets the rest fall behind her back.
14. Are they an impulse shopper? If so, what would they buy?
No, she literally is Xo’s impulse control and will keep an eye on every piece of gold they have so Xo doesn’t spend it on like a Fantasy Pogo stick they bought when they were drunk.
15. When do they usually sleep?
She sleeps earlier than Xo usually at around 10pm, but also wakes up at 5 to start her jobs and go hunting before Xo gets up.
16.What makes them worry?
Xochitl finding out about what Yaretzi’s been doing these past few months, getting killed on one of her jobs, and whether she’s as strong as she thinks she is.
17. Do they have any creative outlets?
Part of her second job was creatively shooting things, so Yaretzi has some dope ass trick shots with her bow when she’s in the woods. She also dances with Xo together to keep the spirit of their first homes alive, and sometimes she’ll help her Aunt Breda with the cooking.
18. How do they comfort an upset loved one?
She’s a fan of talking it out, especially since sometimes it takes a little coaxing to get Xo to talk about their past with their daughter, especially all that happened in the events when Yaretzi was taken, but she likes lying against people and telling them that they’re going to be okay and that she’s going to kill every last person who hurt her loved ones.
19. What are they like when they’re sick?
She’s got that dwarven toughness that helps her stave away the sickness, but when she is sick, she’s still pretty hardy. She was the only one in her family not to die of the plague when she was found by Xochitl, and she can carry on for about a full week of being sick before she actually needs to lie down. It is very hard to figure out when she’s sick, but you’ll know when she just starts sneezing up a storm.
20. Do they say what they’re thinking, or keep their thoughts to themselves?
She tends to be pretty vocal about her feelings because she knows that you can’t let people walk over you and if you act older than you are then people will respect you more. She’s more secretive about her intentions and what she’s doing, but her immediate feelings she says out loud.
21. What is the best gift they’ve ever received?
Xo’s given her a lot over the years, but a family is definitely the biggest thing they could have given her.
22. Are they good at keeping track of time?
Yeah, she has to be in order to keep up her charade without Xo finding out, plus she sometimes has strict deadlines from her jobs that require her to know exactly what time of day it is.
23. What is their favorite ice cream flavor?
Butter Praline. She’s a little old at heart, and it’s one of the flavors that her family won’t eat.
24. What would they order from a fast food/take-out place?
Literally everything on the menu. Someone stop this child’s eating habits. Xo doesn’t mind though, because they just take whatever leftover Yaya has when they get the weed munchies.
25. What is their favorite pizza topping(s)?
She piles on every single topping, no matter whether it fits or not. She is the kid who puts on pineapple next to garlic cloves next to grilled mushrooms. When you live in forests and in various shady jobs, you tend to eat anything that’s put in front of you.
26. What is their favorite type of cookie?
Vanilla and Macadamia Nut 
27. Do they paint their nails?
No, unless she’s spending the day with Ellie where Ellie shows Yaya how to be a high society little babe and not a crunchy earth child like her mom.
28. What is their favorite board game?
She’s a really big fan of puzzles, but sometimes living with a bear makes it hard because Buttons likes to eat the pieces. 
29. Are they more of a pants or skirts kind of person?
She’s used to wearing skirts all her life, so she tends to go out in long, active skirts and boots.
30. Do they dream often? What about?
She still sometimes has nightmares about all that’s happened to her when she was little, which is enough to give anyone nightmares for a long ass time, but sometimes she’ll dream of being with her birth family or her previous job, which is more bittersweet than anything.
31. Do they have any phobias?
Like her mom, she is afraid of shackles of any kind, fire, and a little surprisingly, spiders. It’s a little hard when she’s always in the forest scouting and spiders tend to live in forests, but she will and has shot a spider before.
32. If they were a pokemon, which would they be?
Rowlet. Small, flighty, round and cute, always hanging around in trees. She’s a beautiful little rowlet that is adored by her Ursaring momma.
33. How well do they handle sea travel? Air travel?
She’s never traveled by either, but she loves both of them more than traveling by carriage. Carriages never tend to be good for her.
34. Which Disney character are they most like?
Definitely a Merida. Bow shooting, doesn’t need a man, wants her freedom, and absolutely goes on adventures with bears.
35. What sort of parent would they be?
She’s got a fairly good set of people to influence her how to be a good parent, so she would be one that lets her kids do their own things while she gives them the tools to make their own adventures. Xo is fairly overprotective of Yaretzi given everything that’s happened to her over the years, so Yaretzi just wants her freedom.
