Green: -sits patiently on a couch, hands folded in her lap, awaiting the arrival of Book and teh Gothic Princess-
Me: -poofs in with Kvalia- ^_____^ We're here! :3
Kvalia: -glancing around, notices title- ...VV'' You've gotta be kidding me...-muttered-
Green: ^___^ Hiya!!! Ok, lets get comfy and junk. ^3^... -shifts a little in her seat, getting comfortable- ^^ SO, Kvalia... You ready to answer all our questions..?
Mime: 00 Vampiress? I never knew. *eats 20 loaves of garlic bread*
Kvalia: O___o Do I know him?
Me: ^^'' It's Mime, dear. He's another DDR...
Kvalia: TT'' Oh. Well, Mime, for your information I have no reaction to garlic whatsoever except that of every living thing with a sense of smell; now go stand in the far corner and don't open your mouth, please...
(to Green) <_____< Not all of them. Some, though, I suppose V.V.... -reluctantly takes a seat, sitting cross-legged in an armchair-
Me: ^.^! -shifts excitedly on a couch- O.o Oh, Green, can we invite Kolar to this as well? ^^'' Only, he probably has some questions he might want to ask, too...
Kvalia: VV'' Why don't you just invite the whole damn place? It'd be a regular party <___<... < /sarcasm >
Me: ^______^ Okay!
Kvalia: TT''... -doesn't bother to reply, knowing I only said that to be annoying-
Green: ^__^ I don't mind if Kolar jumps over. =D -pause- should I send out the invitations..?
Me: ^^'' Well, I rather think that whoever knows about the Mez + Kvalia thing will at least look at it, so I don't think you need to send invitations to everyone x33 But if they're reading this, they'll know they're welcome ^.^ And maybe once Kolar shows up, we can set out refreshments :3
Kvalia: V_____V Why me? You guys didn't make Mez's interview a party occasion <______<...
Green: hehehe... ^^... but his interveiw was particularly long and he gave such crappy answers i doubt anyone would have stayed long enough for us to get the words out of him... x33 besides deary, we're just foolin' 'round... -pause- although, we can't control how many people come in here and look at it.
If any characters come in and read anything, they won't remember it out of this board. -nodnod-
Me: ^^'' Oh yeah, I forgot to state the rules....but that's one :3 Also, characters are allowed to even come in and talk and stuff, just the forgetting rule applies O.o Creators may remember, but they are not to tell charries outside of the board what they heard <___< Umm...I think that's it ^^'' Ready to start, Green? :3
Kvalia: VV''...-feeling of dh00m-
Green: ^_____^ Yupp!! Ready!! who would like to start?
Me: ^^''' Uh...so far it's just you and me here, Green. And there's no sense in me interviewing my own character x33...
Kvalia: VV''.... -still waiting for the end of the world-
Green: Oo.. ooh.. good point.. -sheepish grin- O-kay. ^__^ No more stalling. Kvalia. At what age were you turned into a vampire?
Kvalia: O__o Twenty.
Me: ^___^ Oh! Oh! I have a while timeline of her life written down x33...
Green: ^___^ Cool!! then i won't have to ask her about lyk, what time period was she turned and junk... right..? ^^;;
Kolar: *wanders in, Corona trailing* Whee! What did I miss?
Me: O.o Well...her history, as I'm writing it up, takes place in mostly modern times ^^''' I mean, I imagined her as growing up in the twenty-first century O.o...
(to Kolar) ^^'' Not much, so far.
^_____^ -sets out chinese food- x33
Green: oo.. ok. -wave- ^__^ Hiya Kolar!! Hiya Corona!
Now, Kvalia, what were your parents like? ^^?
Kvalia: oo Umm...my mother was fairly normal. A bit bossy, perhaps, but she meant well. Always put her family first, although she was also really into her job. She had a tendency to hold onto things for too long, though...My dad...-face falls into it's normal protective blankness; not that she was all that expressive to begin with- ...my dad seemed normal as well. Until I was thirteen, he seemed happy with his life; friendly, he was always rather outgoing. Had a tendency to brag, and there was still a bit of the high-school jock in his personality, but he seemed like a nice guy. He also had a view of the world that tended towards gender-roles, but if mom was really busy or something, he wasn't above doing laundry or cooking. -very, very faint smile, says quietly, almost to herself- ...he wasn't very good at them, though...-eyes focus back on the present, on Green; obviously waiting for the next question- TT...
Me: ^^''....
Green: Ok... ^__^ See? We're off to a great start!! ^^ What was school like for you?
Kvalia: O___o Okay, I guess. I got fairly good grades, mostly A's and B's. I wasn't horribly interested in the subjects --it wasn't 'cool' to be interested in school-- but I liked doing well and actually made an effort. I was in one of the more popular cliques so I wasn't picked on, really, though I must admit I turned a blind eye to other people's problems. -shrug- At that point in my life, I just didn't want to get involved.
Green: Aahh.. ^__^ Bet you had a cute boyfriend and everything? -little grin-
Kvalia: -very, very blank- Actually, no. I've never had a boyfriend. Things...um, went downhill at thirteen, and before that I wasn't really interested. I only really started actually considering the idea around twelve, and mostly because of peer pressure x3 Besides that, I may have been a bit picky ^^''
Green: O.o... oh... I eh.. see.. So how far did your schooling go? ^^ Did you go to college?
Kvalia: Um...no, I didn't. I dropped out of school around fifteen for a bit, attended sporadically for another year, then gave it up altogether. -pause, adds reluctantly- ....later, after I was turned, I took some night classes and so forth in subjects I was interested in.
Green: Oo.. huh... -murmurs to herself- ...kinda sounds like Mez... -cough- Well at least you got a bit of education in... ^__^;; so you dropped out. Did your parents approve?
Kvalia: Um...I really haven't the foggiest. I ran away. My dad probably didn't care --he'd gotten his divorce by then-- and I expect my mother was too drunk to care too much as well.
Me: ^^'' When she was sober and once she'd gotten help for her drinking problem, she wasn't so concerned about Kvalia's lack of education as the fact that she hadn't a clue where her daughter'd run off to, or if she was all right...
Kvalia: O o -sharp look at me-
Green: Oo.. oh. i see... well, anyways... how did you become a vampire..?
Kvalia: .____. Um...Raud found me and thought I'd make a good vampire; he's always looking for people with the right personality, you see...
Green: Ahh.. And what sort of personality is that? ^^ Apparently you had it..?
Kvalia: -sighs, thinks- Um...a certain ruthlessness, I suppose, and perhaps a disillusionment with life. A willingness to give up or disregard the Right-and-Wrong way of looking at things that most people use, or an enjoyment of being evil. Err...at least some talent for manipulation. Practicality; you can't let your pride get in the way of success. Creativity or cleverness, quick thinking. Ambition is useful as well, although of course you can only rise so high...I didn't have all those traits, but I had enough .____. -looks almost bored, in a bland sort of way-
Me: ^^''...I've decided not to interfere, to point towards things you're missing that might be interesting and suchlike, but...I just have to say this :3 It's interesting how although Kvalia appears to be saying a lot, she's still leaving out so much x3...
Green: ^^.. beating around the barrel. xD well, sorta.. -snicker- She's being a lot more cooaperative than Mez was.. ^^ though, we HAVE only just begun.. >:3
Ok, so. Back to the family stuff. were you an only child? did you have any other family besides your mother and father? and didn't i read somewhere that you had a step father? oor... am i getting confused with someone else.. Sorry if i am. -sheepish grin-
Kvalia: oo''...
Me: x33 Maybe she's just better at hiding her uncooperativeness than Mez was. She knows that if she's openly uncooperative, it's the truth potion for her, so why do all the whining 'Do I have to?'s x33...
Kvalia: TT'' Yes. None that we visited regularly. My mother had a boyfriend after my dad left, but Bookeh doesn't remember when/if she told you that, so yes, you may be confusing me with someone else. Nothing to apologize for.
Me: ^^'' She's politer than Mez was, too.
Green: -murmurs to Book- I think she's just kinda being concise... ^^;;
-clears her throat- eh hem, yes. I believe i must have been thinking of the boyfriend. -nods-
aaany ways.. tell us - or rather me - what happened with Raud the day you were turned.. ^^ If you can, that is..
Kvalia: VV''' He came back and--
Me: -interrupts- ^.^ The whole story, Kvalia...
Kvalia: <___<... -decides against wasting time with a 'You're already writing up the 'whole story'...' comment; tiny sigh- When Raud found me-- or rather, one of his agents found me and reccommended me to him-- when Raud came to check out the girl his agent had told him about, I was...unhappy with the place I occupied in the world. It had made me one of those people who depend only on themselves, who don't care that they step on other people on the way up. I was ruthless, as manipulative as I knew how, and was willing to do almost anything to get out. Raud offered me that way out. However, I was still hesitant...I guess a bit of the old me remained, or else it was just that I am not and never was a person to make big decisions quickly. Besides this, it'd had just been revealed to me that vampires actually did exist, and I was feeling...a little out of things. Like I was in a dream. So Raud told me he'd give me a week to think about things, and let's just say that it only took one more night of experiencing life as I knew it before my mind was made up. He returned, I accepted and he...took me away. And turned me. -pause- ...and it was actually night when he turned me, not day .____. ...
Green: I figured that, i was just saying that to make it sound less awkward y'know..? -sheepish grin- Ok. Do you regret being turned into a vampire?
Kvalia: Ah... -thinks for a bit, opens mouth once or twice as if she's going to speak and changes her mind; eventually- Yes...no...it's...complicated ^^'' I try not to look back on things in a regretful way, or a 'I-could-have-done-that-instead' way anymore; I just don't need that kind of burden. Myself as I am now...I'd rather be human. But if I was, I don't think I'd have enough time for what I want to accomplish :/ Myself as I was then, when Raud made me that offer...I don't think I could have made any other decision. I could always imagine what I could have done if I'd been the person I am today, but there's not much point in that, and a whole lot of grief. So I don't .___.
Me: ^^'' Did that answer your question, Green?
Green: oo.. mmm.. so you regret it sometimes and sometimes not. I understand. -nods-
Kvalia: TT'' Um...
Me: ^^'' Close enough. I'm not sure she can really explain it any more clearly O.o...
Kvalia: ...next question? V.V
Green: Ok. -think- ^^ I don't know much about your love life.. did you ever love anyone?
Kvalia: .................>__> No, I didn't.
Me: ^______^
Green: O.o.. really..? cause that's a really long time, seeing as you're a vampire and all and in that long livespan you've never had ANYone....? -blink-
Kvalia: TT'' That's correct. -crosses arms, looking...less than pleased-
Green: O.o.. ok. ^__^ Well if you ever WERE to love someone, what would they be like? ^^
Kvalia: V.V''''.... -long silence-
Me: ^_____^ This is one you have to answer, Kva-dear...
Kvalia: <_______< Don't call me that. -pauses to think about the question- ...V.V Well...I suppose they'd have to have a lot of patience and persistence, since I sure as hell am not going to fall in love easily. Um...I suppose they'd also have to have a little darkness in their past :/ Unfortunately. I just think that, with a normal person, there would be too many things in my history I'd be keeping from them...-sighs, puts chin on hand and elbow on the armrest of her chair- Er...a little bit of humor's always a good thing. Not the goofy kind, though...-another long pause as she thinks-
....<_____< And I wouldn't ever love Mez, just to let you know. So I'd appreciate it if you'd stop throwing us together. It gets annoying.
Me: x33...
Green: xD i wasn't really thinking about that when i asked the question but ok.. x33 and just to reassure you that it won't happen on the other line, Mez would never love you. ^^ we'll take into consideration you're feelings, dear.y.
ok. ^_^.. I'm gonna ask some simply questions now.. sound good? ok! What's your favorite color?
Kvalia: <___< Black...and may I ask you something? Why do you keep bugging us, Mez and me? <.< It's been established that we don't like each other, but yet you won't leave us alone...
Green: oo... -shrug- you both seem kinda lonely, kinda distant.. well, maybe not Mez because he's always around...(against his own will, of course). but same thing, whatever. ^^;; i don't really know why we do that.. Book? do you have any encouraging words..?
Me: ^^''' I think I'm rather hoping that they'll somehow get over their differences and become friends, of sorts ^^'' (to Kvalia) I think you two could be good friends for each other...once we solve those few little problems between you ^^'''
Oh, and it's fun x33
Kvalia: TT''....those weren't encouraging.
Green: ^__^ answered my loomin thoughts!!
while we're on the subject, why do you hate him? ^^
Kvalia: -sighs- VV'' 'Hate' is such a strong word....<___< I dislike him because he can read minds. Haven't I already gone over this?
Me: ^^'' And once she finds out that he's hurt (killed?) innocent bystanders, that's another black mark for him...
Kvalia: O__o What's this?
Green: oo.. -to Book- why is that?
-looks to Kvalia- ^^;; well is that the /only/ reason? because i could get rid of his mind reading ability any time... -sheepish grin- and without that? do you still 'greatly dislike' him?
Me: ^____^ Kvalia's a very live-and-let-live person. She...hmmm...well, the reason she does her best not to hurt innocent bystanders is because she doesn't want to screw up anyone else's life. Surely someone's gotta love the person you just killed, right?
Kvalia: <___< Without his mind-reading and innocent-bystander murders....um O.o.... -has to think about it for a second; eventually shrugs- Well, I wouldn't care much about him either way. His teleportation would still have me a little worried, but not enough to actively dislike him. He's one of those people who just want to be left alone, and I could respect that; maybe I'd feel a little sympathy for him, I guess... .__.
Green: o.o.. so you'd be curtious, yees?
O-kay. ^^ y'know how long it took for us to get it out of him why he doesn't like you? -shakes her head- anyways, next question... -think- hmmm... ok. If you could have any power, what would it be? ^^;; you're already pretty powerful with lyk, super strength and fastyness, but would you like to fly? become invisible? breathe FIRE?!? it's just a question because i'm curious.. ^.^;;
Kvalia: o.o......-thinks; almost says 'teleportation'- ...I'd like to be able to make people forget. Modify their memories...
Me: O.o It took us a while? -thinkthink- ....I thought he didn't like her because she hated him? ^^'' ~Why do I always have so much trouble remembering?...~
Green: oO... mm.. maybe i'm just think that lyk, it took a whole to really sort through it. -blink- i dunno. <.<..;; it seemed like a long time for me...
That's a fun thing.. ^^;; it's kinda like mind-reading though, y'know...
Kvalia: O.o How so?
Me: x33 I think what you're thinking, Green, is that it took me a while to remember why he didn't like her...
Green: Weell.. Mez could modify people's memories if he wanted to. -nods- He could switch one person's memories with another person's, he could erase people's memories... he just hasn't because he hasn't had the need to.. ^^ So in the process of changing someone's memories, you would, in a sense, be reading their minds. -nodnod-
anyways.. ^^ What your opinion of the OOC Mansion? Do you like it here? Do you not? Explain. =D
Kvalia: O____o....V.V ~How come Mez has all the useful magical talents? Not fair <__<...~ Actually, the kind of memory-modifying I was thinking of isn't really mind-reading at all. I have to know the memory is there, and I can't...read/hear/see/whatever any of the person's other memories or thoughts.
This place? It's...almost okay, I guess. Raud's not here. Zay is. You guys seem to delight in characters' strife and unhappiness. None of my problems will get solved here. Mez is fairly easy to avoid. Friend doesn't seem to show up much. -shrugs-
Green: ^^ well i'm glad you're almost okay with being here.. =3
aaah.. i seeeee.. well, that make sense. ^__^
ok!! next question!! -pause- uhm.. drawing a blank here again... Waaait.. wait. -thinkthink- x.x ok. -think- err... alright. ^__^ Do you have a best friend?
Kvalia: .____. No.
Me: x33 Try past tense, dahl...remember how Kvalia doesn't want friends right now? ^^''
Green: ok. DID you have a best friend..? ^^?
Kvalia: TT'' Um...yes. Twice.
Green: Really? ^__^ Tell me about them!!
Kvalia: -murmurs- VV'' You sound so surprised...-sighs, louder voice- :/ The first one was when I was still in school. She was pretty normal; preppy, pretty, nice enough if rather unintentionally thoughtless and unwilling to get involved in big problems, as teenage girls can be. The second one...Adrienne...was a member of a gang. I met her when I was fifteen; when I ran away. She brought me into the gang, gave me a home and a place to belong, and maybe I would have healed if... -trails off-
Green: O.o.. go on...?
Kvalia: -shifts a little, looks up, as if coming back to the present out of her thoughts- O.o I'm sorry, you wanted their personalities, right?
Me: x33 She's trying to change the subject...
Green: ^^ sure, if you want. but tell me how you met, why you aren't friends anymore and, if it's because you're a vampire and they died over time, would you still want to be friends with them if they were alive still..?
Kvalia: TT'' Oh. My first best friend, Book still hasn't come up with a name for her, I met in school. We stopped being friends because I ran away and never saw her again...although, things were strained between us for two years before, when I was still in school but, um, changing. At least she stayed; none of my other friends did...
I met Adrienne by rescuing her from a rapist. We aren't friends anymore because....-pause; trying to find some way of explaining without actually giving anything away- ....because....>.< ~Darnit.~ ...because I took her place in paying back some loan sharks TT'' We didn't manage to scrape up quite enough money to repay them fully --off by a few hundred dollars-- but because I'd brought the money to them and told them to take me in her place, they...took me instead. And I never saw her again, either...-a technical truth-
My first friend and I couldn't be friends today, even if she were still alive. Renna...well. It would be nice to meet someone like Renna again, but I'm not sure I could be friends with her. She's a grandmother now, and I still look twenty...
Green: oo.. woow.. have you ever thought about just going to see her? ^__^ Or, maybe, sending her a letter? -sways- ^__^ you don't have to see her so she doesn't have to wonder why you look so young... =3 i know i would like to receive a letter from a long-lost friend... ^^...
anyways, lets go to the next question, shall we..?
Kvalia: -pause- .....yeah, sure.
Me: ^^''' What my dear gothic princess isn't saying is that she rescued her long-lost friend's granddaughter x33 Remember that story I wrote about Kva for school? That's it...except I changed it from daughter to granddaughter, because othewise the years didn't work out right ^^''
Green: O.o.. aah.. i seee.. -blink- -pause- wait.. o x;; how does that work? -is confused- nvermind.. x__x don't try to make me understand.. Jimmy Buffett's turning my brain to mush...
Ok. If you could do ANYTHING, what would you do? ^^
Kvalia: -promptly- Kill Raud.
Me: ^^''....she has a rather one-track mind right now...
Green: o.o.. i don't blame her.. ^^
ok. when you were young, what did you want to be when you grew up..? ^.^...
Kvalia: O.o....define 'young' ^^'' Before thirteen? Between thirteen and eighteen? Between eighteen and twenty? After I was made a vampire? ^^''
Green: At any age!! =D did you want to be a dancer? A teacher? a fireman-err woman? A mail-lady? a professional rockstar? an actor?
Kvalia: Umm...when I was in high school I didn't really know what I wanted to be. I suppose...if I'd thought about it...I might've wanted to be in a managerial position in some company...maybe a computer company...
Green: O_o.. wow, you had big dreams.. <.<... Manager in a company? yeesh.
Kvalia: -shrugs- Not really. Managers are being fired all the time so there are lots of openings, and I didn't say I wanted to be a top manager...Next question?
Green: ok. -thinks again- who's your favorite person? ^__^
Kvalia: o.o Uh. -pause- ...any restrictions on that question? <___< That's pretty broad...
Green: well... who do you look up to? hero? person who's so smexy that you just love them? anything really.. ^_____^;; no real restrictions to that question.
Kvalia: -long stare- .______. ....................
.......................
..... .......................... .... .............. .... ... .................
....no one? O.o I suppose my 'favorite' person would be Adrienne... -frowns- But I don't think I have a 'hero'...
Green: Oo.. oh. -frowns a little- hmm... -thinks- lets get Kolar in here to ask a few questions.. >.<...
Me: ^^'' Okay...
Kvalia: -shifts a little in her chair, so that she's slouching, with her hands laced over her stomach and her feet stretched out in front of her, crossed at the ankle- o.o...
Kolar: O.o Alrighty...um...*tries to stall while he thinks of some good questions* ...Pepsi or Coke?
Before, you were turned, of course.
Kvalia: -looks amused- Mountain Dew x33 I wasn't really much of a coke/pepsi fan...
Me: x33 Omg! She smiled!
Green: ^^ yay for mountain dew!!
Kolar: The correct answer was 'Dr Pepper,' but Mountain Dew is good too.
But I digress. Um...Now that I think of it, what was your favorite food? And is there anything else you can't eat now that you miss?
Green: Oooo.. good one. hadn't thought of thaaaat... ^___^
Kvalia: Umm...chinese food and chocolate come to mind, although at some point or another you miss everything...
Kolar: Would you call being unable to eat regular foods one of the major drawbacks to being a vampire, then?
Kvalia: -frowns a bit, in thought- ....it depends on what you think of as a drawback. It kinda sucks, but it's not....hmm...it's not like our dislike for the sun. I suppose you could call it a drawback, in that people tend to take offense to a glass of blood more than a glass of wine. But blood has different tastes, too, so it's not like you're exchanging a variety of tastes for just one...
O.o Did that answer your question?
Green: oooh! ^__^ what's your favorite flavor of blood? ^__^?
Kvalia: O__________o -it's pretty weird to hear that from someone, when you think about it; people tend to be squeamish about the topic- Generally speaking, the more magic, the better...that goes for innate talents, too, like Kolar's lightning and Mez's teleportation X____x
Green: O.o.. ooo.. that's cool.. ^__^ magic is cool. so what, is there a spicey taste to it? any blood i've ever had was sorta metalic.. Oo...
Kvalia: Umm....no, I wouldn't describe magic as 'spicy' O.o I'm not sure I could describe the tastes as 'spicy' or 'sweet' or whatever...do you want me to try to describe some of the tastes?
Green: Oo... you don't have to... unless someone wants ya to. ^__^ I don't mind either way.
Me: ^___^ Kolar? Do you want Kvalia to try to explain?
Kolar: I'd like to know, myself.
Kvalia: Okay. Um. -pause while she thinks- ....there are kind of two types of magic. A creature may have magic, or it may be magic. Faeries and mages are examples of the first, and shifters and those with supernatural abilities are examples of the second. Both categories tend to taste different...those in the first category, the magic is purer, and tastes like magic; imagine, if you can, drinking pure energy. You feel like you're filled up with a painless electricity, a glowing blue light; that just by touching something, you have the power to change it. You feel immensely faster, stronger, like you can hear, see, smell, and sense better --you feel.
Green: aaaaah.. I seeeeee... o.o...
Corona: O.o I'm full of blue light?
Kvalia: But it doesn't actually make you much better than you were before. That's why faeries are...actually a little dangerous to drink from, for all the feeling they give. With mages and other magic-bearing people, it's the same effect, just immensely subdued. A fizz, almost...
With creatures that are magic, it's different. The magic in them changes the taste of their blood, period. Shifters taste...-pause- Hmm....earthy? I don't mean literally like dirt, just...sort of like meat and potatoes O.o Solid. A power bar, almost, if you will ^^''
With abilities, it varies from person to person O.o
Kvalia: They tend to taste according to the nature of their ability; if their ability is very strong, such as elemental magic, the magic in them is easier to taste. If their ability is...more understated, they taste...smoother. Um.
...I don't think I can generalize on abilities :/ First of all, I haven't had many people with magical abilities, and secondly...it just varies too much to summarize.
Next question? ^^''
Green: -think- ^__^ what weapon do you like to use? i.e., gun, sword, daggers...
Kvalia: O.o Umm...mostly, I actually prefer to use non-lethal weapons ^^'' It's less messy, and generally takes less effort. Like, intimidation, manipulation, that sort of thing...
Second choice would be my fists, I suppose. And then daggers and my sais... O.o
Green: o.o.. ooh... ok. -thinks- What's your favorite animal? ^^;; ~Hawk probably...~
Kvalia: .____. Eh? Oh, I dunno.....I don't really care for animals that much. But if I had to choose.... -longish pause- ...hawk? Maybe falcon? -frowns- Some dark-colored bird of prey...
Me: ^__^ ~Yeees. I was right.~ Really? That's cool. =3 and what kind of animal would you be if you could be any one?
Kvalia: .______. ...a dark-colored bird of prey... -pause- ...or maybe a fire lizard ^___^ A black one.
Me: ^^'' Have you read Anne McCaffrey's Dragonsong series?
Green: oo.. no. no i haven't..
cooool... fire lizaaard.. ^__^ that's cool.
O-kaay!! -think- hmmm... -ponder- what do you like to do for fun, Kvalia? ^^
Kvalia: ._____. ....-loooong pause- I...-frowns- ...go out dancing every so often. Take computer courses. Um... -pause- ...yeah, I think that's about it.
Green: O.o.. that's it..? you don't like to read or play any games or do anything else? ^^ c'mon, there's gotta be more that you do for fun than just dancing and computer.. =3
Kvalia: ._____. No, I don't really like to read any more...or see movies...or play games. -pause- Well, I guess those online board and mind games are okay. Good for wasting time. But I don't really like to do things with people...
Green: Oo.. wow. -seems sorta sad now- T.T.. you sound lonely...
Kvalia: -shuts down completely; doesn't seem much different from before, except there's definitely a wall between her outside self and her inside self- I guess you could say that... -sounds like she doesn't care that she's lonely...or something O.o-
Green: ..;;; Kvalia.. Why're you so.. Distant?
Kvalia: -still shut off- What do you mean? -sounds dead-
Green: ._. you distance yourself from people, you don't get very close to anyone... and you /mask/ your feelings with your blandness and apathy. What are you hiding?
Kvalia: -very, very small, humorless smile; a tiny, dark gleam comes into her eye, and she suddenly seems...rather more vampiric than usual; the evil kind, not the repentant kind...- My loneliness, of course. Hasn't Book already explained this to you? -cool, collected voice, maybe the tiniest bit amused; seems more musical, too, since it's not dead anymore; could almost be described as 'arch'-
Me: ^^'' It's been a while, Kvalia...
Green: 'sides, i'm interveiwing /you/ not Book. Please, explain to the best of your abilities. I just want to understand what you're about. -nods-
Kvalia: -raises one brow, still...a little scary; oh-so-slowly, places her feet on a low table that appeared between herself and you sometime during the interview, crossed at the ankles- ...very well. Do you remember who Raud is?
Green: of course i do. I've never really /met/ him or anything, but i know of him.
Kvalia: -nonplussed by your tone- And do you remember why I hate him?
Green: becaaause.... he turned you into a vampire and made you his slave..? o.o?
Kvalia: -humorless smile widens a bit, twisting her mouth upwards- Hn. Nice guess, but not really. -pauses, trying to think of what to explain- ...there are several reasons why I hate and left Raud, but the one that applies here is this; when I left, he attempted to make me return by threatening a life of a friend of mine for my good behavior. I...didn't believe him. -evilness wanes a bit, into the faintest trace of sadness, but it's quickly scooped up into her mask- So he killed her. -another pause, again thinking of what to leave out- ...anyways. As the years went by, me running away from him and him trying to catch me, I learned to harden my heart. I couldn't feel the slightest bit of liking for anyone, Green, because Raud would find out, and kidnap them, and then he'd have me...-another pause, mouth twitches a bit as she bites back words at the last moment; blinks, regains composure- ...any more questions on this topic? -cool tone again-
Green: o.o... huh.. -ponders a moment- ~REALLY kinda like him...~
What do you think you'll do if he's ever killed? or.. are you kinda the type of vampire that goes 'poof' when the creator dies.. o .;;
Kvalia: -amused look again- No, I am not the kind of vampire that goes 'poof' when my creator dies...or else I wouldn't have tried to kill him, would I? And if he ever dies... -shrugs- I'll get on with living my life. What else? Start trying to have friends again...
Green: You won't be happier? you won't rejoice or anything..? oO? you wont feel relieved? c'mon, gimme some better answers than that.. ^__^
Kvalia: -sighs- Of course I'll be relieved, but I'm not going to be, like, dancing and shouting 'Hallelujah' <___< The funny thing about battles and other fights that end in death is that they seldom leave the winner with a sense of triumph. I know already that all I'll have when Raud is dead is a sort of grim relief that at least he's not alive to continue to screw my life up...and, of course, the memories of how things were when he was alive.
The real happiness will lie in forgetting him. -as she was speaking, took her feet off of the table and leaned forward, her wall unconciously evaporating again; pauses, realizes she let down her guard, and the wall comes back up; straightens, sarcastic edge to her voice- Does that answer satisfy you?
Green: -pause- mmm.. i see. Yes, it does.
now what about your friends. you won't really be able to make friends with mortals, will you? i mean, you'll live forever and they won't. does /that/ make you sad?
Kvalia: -tilts head slightly to one side, considering- O.o....-shrugs- I figured I'd cross that bridge when I came to it. -slightly sarcastic smile- I have bigger problems right now...
Green: ok then. -thinks- ^^ When was the happiest time of your life..?
Kvalia: -promptly- From when I was born to when my dad left.
Green: oo.. oh... -small sigh- -thinks- What do you think of yourself? ^^
Kvalia: Oo Um...what? -surprised-
Me: O.o....nice question ^___^
Green: -bows head to Book-
What do you think of yourself? ^^ It's pretty simple. You interpret it the way you think you should.
Kvalia: O______o Um....
.....
.....<____< I try not to think of myself. I am what I am, and if something needs to be changed, I focus on that. -shrugs-
Me: ^^''' I don't think Green's going to let you get away with just that, Kvalia...
Kvalia: -scowls a bit, thinks- ....um...what is there to say? I know I'm not perfect, and that I've got a ton of personality problems, but I'd like to think that I'm not completely corrupted, either...-frowns as something passes through her mind- ...er...I...think...I'm...
Me: O.o...wow, this looks like a lot of effort ^^''... -pause- ~Well, at least she's putting effort into it ^^'' I know Mez wouldn't be x33...~
Kvalia: -loooong pause- .....V.V Is that enough yet?
Green: Wait, what was the last part? ^^? You think you're....?
Kvalia: V.V There was actually nothing planned. That was me stalling for time while I tried to think of something :/
...next question? ^^'' -almost desperate hopefulness-
Me: ^_____^ Isn't it funny the way the simplest questions can be the hardest?
Green: oh.. ^^;;
yeah, i know.. xD
ok, lemme seee.. -ponder- well, d'you wanna take a quick break? ^^;;
Kvalia: O.o Sure... -blinks for a moment, surprised, then gets up and saunters to the door-
Me: ...x33 Running out of questions? Waiting for Kolar to get back? x3
Green: oo.. maaaaaybeee... -blinkblink- -to Kvalia- Wait! ^__^ Don't go anywhere. one more thing... -poof-
Mez: -appears- TT.. Green, i don't want to be here...
Me: ^__^ Ask Kvalia a question, any question at all!!!
Me: O.o...-snicker- x33 What, would you rather be back on that cruise?
Kvalia: -pauses, half out the door, slightly surprised- .____. ....-isn't really worried, because she doubts Mez has enough interest in her to put much effort into his question-
Mez: <<.. shut up, Book.
Green: ^^ oh c'mooon.. pleeease?? PLEEeeEEEAAse...?!?
Mez: TT.. FINE, fine.. -pause- Why do you always dress the way you do? Are you trying to hide something under that trench coat?
Green: -gasp- o.o... -whispers to him- think she has a tail..??
Mez: -glances at Green- T T.. Yeah, she has a /tail/ Green.. -pushes her away-
Green: I KNEW it.. >.<..
Kvalia: ._____. ....-looks slightly amused at you- I like black. And trenchcoats are useful for hiding weapons. (to Green) Can I go now?
Mez: me too..?
Green: -sigh- yeah, i suppose..
Mez: -disapears-
-- some time later... --
Green: Ok, no more break. =D wh00t!! more questions.
Me: ^______^ -poofs Kvalia in-
Kvalia: -appears sitting crosslegged, with a mug of something red in her hands; falls into her seat- @ o;;....you almost made me spill my drink! <____<
Me: ^^'' Sorry...
Kolar: O.o Um...hey, what do you think of Corona, really?
She can't hear us right now, if that would be an issue.
Corona: O___o? *is trying to figure out where the odd buzzing in her ears is coming from*
Kvalia: -taking a sip of her drink- O.o Hm? Oh... -carefully blank look- She's nice...
Me: <.< ... -prods her-
Kvalia: <____< All right, all right....V.V -sighs, puts down drink- If it wasn't for Raud, we'd...definitely be friends right now. She's the kind of person I'll need when Raud is dead... -wan smile- I just hope I'm not too dark for her...
I wish she'd find some friends, though V_V She's the kind of person who needs to be needed by others, and...well, no offense intended, Kolar and Alima are rather sufficient unto themselves, aren't they? ^^''' She deserves happiness...
Kolar: ^__^ She'd be happy to hear that, if indeed she could hear.
V___V She's trying to, although she seems to just be a lot more social than most of the charries here. And to give Kolar some credit, he's trying, it's just he's more of a big brother/mentor than anything else...
But enough of that. Hmm... So, why exactly did your dad leave...?
Kvalia: Because he found another woman. Why else? TT'' -crosses arms and slouches back in chair, looking sullen and stubborn-
Me: <___< -prods; prods again, after Kva just sends me an irritated, dark glance-
Kvalia: -grudgingly- And although it was never clear...I would guess...that he just got tired of us... -reluctantly; major grudge against her father here-
Kolar: So, what happened after he left?
Kvalia: -sighs- TT I believe we've already gone over this...my mother had trouble letting go, and drank. I'm surprised she was able to keep her job.
Kolar: I see...um...
Rift: So, what exactly is your overwhelming, deep-seated issue with dresses?
Kolar: O.o
Kvalia: O.o ...oh. You're here <____< -real friendly-
Me: ^^'' Answer the question, Kvalia... ~O.o Actually, that's a pretty good question...~
Kvalia: ~I thought /Kolar/ and /Green/ were the interviewers V.V...~ TT... -fidgets, looks away; then that invisible wall comes up again, as if she doesn't have emotions at all- They...give people a tendency to objectify. -still not looking at anyone, but cool and collected as anything-
Rift: And they don't already? Or is being depicted as a goth preferable?
Kvalia: -swings around to glare at Rift- >___< They objectify less when I'm covered head-to-toe in threatening black than when I'm dressed in a revealing evening gown!
Me: -sweatdrop; hopes Rift knows when to stop-
Green: ^__^ but you look pretty in dresses!!
Kvalia: -fists clenched- >____< That's exactly my problem...
Green: ^^ what's the problem with looking pretty? ^.^ It's like you're trying to hide all that prettiness!! =3 everyone thinks you're pretty in a dres.. ^__^
Rift: Yes, exactly why are you trying to hide it? I'm sure your lovely personality will dispel anyone's...over-objectivity.
Kvalia: -temperature drops about ten degrees in the air around Kvalia; gives Rift her best, most scornful stare- You, of all people, should know that personality does nothing to objectivity... -turns her cold, cold stare to Kolar- Next question? -bright smile as cold and glittery-pretty as ice-
Kolar: Ignoring Rift's...tactfulness...what's so bad about being objectified? It's not good, obviously, but you avoid it like the plague...
Kvalia: <___________<.... -arms crossed, eyeing Kolar and everyone, suspicious as anything-
Me: ^^'' Nothing that gets said here, leaves here; you know that...
Kvalia: -eyes me suspiciously, then says grudgingly- ...because being objectified has gotten me into trouble before TT Okay?
Green: ^__^ Oh!! so you avoid it all together!! makes sense.. =3
Kolar: What kind of trouble...?
Kvalia: -dark look at Kolar- <____< Why can't you just be cheerfully accepting like Green? Anyways, that's not something I have to tell you...>.< Are we done yet?
Green: ^____^ Lets go on a camping trip!!!
-cough- sorry, my mind was elsewhere..
I can't think of many more questions.. o o;;
Me: ^^'' Kolar told me he can't think of any more questions, either...so I think you're done, dear :3 (to Kva)
Kvalia: TT Good...-stands up, slowly, and makes her way to the door; before she opens it, however, pauses and turns back to the Creators, whoever else is there, although her question is mostly directed at us- TT Before I go, though, I have a question for you....what is your fascination with me? Why do you seem to like me nearly as much as Mez?
Kolar: *shrug* Because you're interesting?
Green: ^__^;; here here!!
Kvalia: -scowls at you two; that wasn't much of an answer x33; turns gaze to me-
Me: ^^'' Well, dear...
Kvalia: TT I'm not your dear.
Me: ^^''''' Well, Kvalia...I dunno about Green and Kolar, but...^___^ One of the reasons I like you is because I know what you've been through, and...I want to see if you make it ^^'''
Kvalia: -pause- ....TT'' Great, Book. Thanks. You just warm my heart. < /sarcasm > -turns and quietly exits, firmly shutting the door behind her-
