Nico: "Well, I gave you the choices, didn't I? You can eat while you work, let me do the work for you, or you can stand here and keep trying to argue with me. I'm honestly surprised you haven't realized that you won't win this one. Of course, if you try to walk away, I'll just follow you, so-"

Now the one you gave everyone!

Horatio: "The most concerning person? How so? Do you mean, concerning because they might end up dragging everyone else into trouble, or 'dear god, they're going to get themselves killed?' I'm going to guess the first one, though I suppose the second kind of applies as well. I'd have to say Briar."

Micha: "Uhhhh, well, maybe Briar? Just because they're really chaotic and will probably end up getting into trouble."

Nico: "Um. I guess Adiar. They have their reasons, though, so it's fine!"

Briar: "Me, bitch! I've never met anyone more concerning and problematic than myself, haha! I win!"

Amory: "Irfam. How the fuck can someone be so chaotic and not be dead?"

Amos: "Uhhhh, probably Irfam... I don't know how they aren't dead yet, but I'm definitely constantly concerned for him, so-"

Kostas: "Irfam. Do I need to explain?"

Ash: "U-umm... Nobody i-is that concerning, s-so... I don't k-know..."

Sol: "Hm. Can I say Amory? Don't get me wrong, he's awesome! I just think he can be a little... out of control sometimes."

And individual ones!

Amos: "Okay, okay, hear me out on this one! Lightly toasted, like light brown in the center, no darker. Then, you add peanut butter and honey on top and then cut up a single banana and put that on top, then enjoy! You can also add normal butter before the peanut butter if you like, though I prefer it without."

Sol: "Oh! Sorry, I misunderstood! If Beste and Amory started getting along, that would be amazing! I mean, I'd definitely love hanging out with both of them at the same time, and it'd make me really happy if they got along!"

Amory: "Well, I'd check on them, obviously. As a police officer, I'm trained to work with the injured if necessary. I'd check to see if they were conscious or not, move them into the recovery position, and then call Raphael to alert him of what happened and make sure I know what to do next. Assuming he gave the okay to move the person, I'd bring them inside and make sure they were taken care of until they recovered enough to leave and still be okay. And I'd avoid touching them unless necessary or the person indicates that they want/need physical touch to ground."

Kostas: "Well, I was thinking of things I could do to minimalize stress at home. Organization, cleanliness, and security are a large part of my stress source, so I decided to create something that would take care of my home even while I wasn't there. This way, I can return home to organization and not worry about potential intruders or anything."

Ash: "Um, A-Amos is nice... I-I like Raphael t-too... though... He's a-a little scary... C-can I choose t-them both?"

Horatio: "Well, it depends a lot on the situation. Most of the time, I try to work through things quickly and logically to get everyone out of a negative situation in the most efficient and safe way possible."

Briar: "You bet! Several people actually! Don't underestimate me!"

Micha: "I really like baking actually, and cooking! There's something that's really nice and relaxing about it for me."

Nico: "Hmmm, that's a hard question. For the most part, no. I think everyone could change if they really work for it, but... Well, some scars run deeper than others and sometimes redemption seems just out of reach for some people."

And now my questions!

All your characters: Do you believe in second chances, and why or why not?

Otiaku: Favorite animal?

Beste: Nice. Best place to hold a party?

Irfam: I believe that you will, honestly. How long have you and Kos known each other?

Raphael: What's your favorite season?

Promachus: Good answer, good answer. How do you like your coffee?

Revan: Major lie.

Aries: Cool! How do you like the group so far?

Gen'ya: Fair. What's the weirdest dream you've had?

Gorōta: That's a good one! How do you feel about physical contact, like hugs and things?

That's completely understandable. I don't actually care for English class that much, I'm just good at it. I definitely prefer being able to be creative to having to write essays on poems and things. And, yeah, projects and socializing suck. I do still enjoy it more than math and science though since I don't feel like I'm failing the whole time XD

Revan; “Nico, just stop. If it makes you feel better, I won’t do any work for a bit after I finish these. You can drag me away to do whatever, I don’t care. I just really need to finish these. They’re important.”

The one you gave everyone!

Revan; “It depends on the person and what they did. Sometimes why they did what they did also matters to deciding that.”

Aries; “I guess that depends… What did they do and why?”

Gen’ya; “Most of the time, yes. But it does depend on what they did.”

Gorōta; “Yes. Definitely. Everyone deserves a second chance, everyone can change.”

Otaiku; “I believe everyone can change, so yes. Everyone deserves a second chance.”

Raphael; “Usually, sure. Some people don’t.”

Beste; “Definitely. Maybe one or two people don’t, kind of depends, I guess.”

Irfam; “Uhm, sure. Kind of depends though, right? I mean- What did they do? Why? How much did they plan ahead? Did they know what they were doing? Were they informed?”

Promachus; “It definitely depends. For the most part? No.”

And now the individual ones!

Otaiku; “Oh, I really like dogs. Any breed, really. Wolves are cool too.”

Raphael; “Favorite season? Really? Uh, okay… I like autumn, I guess.”

Beste; “What kind of party?”

Irfam; “Years. A little less than I’ve known Raphael, but that’s only because he’s been my doctor since uh… The Collapse. And I had a different lab partner before that, and then I did solo stuff for a few years. I think I met Kos when I was like… Uh… 23? Maybe? My memory isn’t the best, so sorry if I’m wrong.”

Promachus; “Black, so that I can get the most caffeine possible in it.”

Revan; “Major lie… Hm… Probably back when I was 15 or 16. I don’t think I want to share just what the lie was though.”

Aries; “The group’s cool? I haven’t really… Met everyone yet. But, I mean, I’m going to be protecting them and working with them apparently, so… I’m sure everyone’s cool.”

Gen’ya; “The weirdest dream I’ve had? Probably one of the fever dreams I’ve had in the past. Unfortunately, I don’t remember them as much. All I know is that they were weird enough to have Jass joking about them for weeks after.”

Gorōta; “Uh… It depends, I guess? Positive contact is usually nice, I like hugs. Usually.”

And now my questions!

To all your characters; Alright, so you’ve answered the most concerning as in the most problematic member- Now answer this! Who are you most concerned about? Who’s the most concerning person when it comes to their own safety and health?

Amos; Ooh, I’m sure that’s good. What about your favorite ice cream flavor?

Sol; That's adorable. Okay, I’m slowly making my way through- What would you do if someone showed up at your door, minimally to severely injured?

Amory; Wow, you’re actually good at that. Anyways! Favorite dessert?

Kostas; That makes sense, glad that you take care of your stress in a rather healthy way. Speaking of- How do you normally deal with stress?

Ash; Of course you can! What about your least favorite member?

Horatio; What about individuals? Like, not the whole group, but certain people? Any ideas yet that would work better for certain people?

Briar; Nice!! Let’s go!!! What’s the height and weight range you think you could win against in a fight?

Micha; Oooh, those are great! What’s your favorite thing to bake/cook?

Nico; That’s understandable. What’s your favorite color though?

Yeah, that makes sense. I’m just an academic soul so I usually don’t have to worry about grades too much. That’s probably why I enjoy all of my classes lmao

Nico: "... Cuddle session and talking or movies after? To help relax and stuff?"

The one you gave everyone!

Horatio: "Aries and Gen'ya seem relatively self-destructive so far. Gen'ya and Aries are more obvious, Gen'ya abuses their body by not eating and Aries neglects his own needs for the benefit of others."

Micha: "Probably Aries, he kinda just does whatever anyone else tells him to."

Nico: "Uh, Aries. It's kinda obvious."

Briar: "Probably Aries, maybe Gen'ya. Probably Aries though. The big oaf doesn't know how to take care of himself. That's why I do it for him!"

Amory: "Irfam, Sol, or Ash. The trio of mentally ill idiots. Well, Sol isn't an idiot, the other two are though."

Amos: "Ash, Irfam, or Sol. None of them take care of themselves, Irfam literally blows himself up, Sol drives himself mad with his power and lack of sleep (and doesn't reach out for help), and Ash would literally let August kill them and then say it was their own fault."

Kostas: "Probably Irfam. Ash and Sol are close, however."

Ash: "P-probably Irfam... T-they hurt themself a l-lot..."

Sol: "Irfam or Ash probably."

Now individual ones!

Amos: "It is! I really like mint chocolate chip for ice cream, though I also like cookie dough, so one of those probably."

Sol: "Uh, well, it's kind of... embarrassing, I guess, but I don't think I'd actually realize that there was someone there at first. I have hallucinations a lot, so I see unusual stuff all the time. Once I realized what was actually going on though, I'd honestly probably freak out. I'd call Raphael and hope he could help, I'm not good with injuries... Blood and stuff is... I don't handle it well."

Amory: "Hey! Ugh, whatever! I'm not a huge fan of sweets, but I guess some sweet bread is fine."

Kostas: "Under stress, I tend to become rather controlling. I clean constantly, even if nothing really needs to be cleaned, and I do what I can to have full control of my surroundings. Obviously, that doesn't always work, but I do try to calm myself and work through things rationally rather than frustrate everyone around me with my controlling mannerisms."

Ash: "I... don't d-dislike anyone! Amory i-is a little loud though... s-so I guess him?"

Horatio: "I try to figure out strategies that work best for each individual, but that takes time. I haven't figured everything out yet, but I have some ideas. Aries seems to respond best to ranting and consistent noise, something that he can focus on other than whatever he's currently thinking about. He seems to react rather negatively to physical touch. Nico seems to rely heavily on physical touch for grounding, though only if you're careful to avoid certain places like his wrists or lower back. Gorōta is influenced by other people's emotions, so one of the best things you can do for him is to stay calm, though I haven't figured out anything else yet. Micha responds well to physical touch and ranting, though I'm not sure what would actually help him in a breakdown, as I haven't seen him have one yet. As of right now, I have no information on how to help Briar, Gen'ya, or Revan."

Briar: "Hm, let's see. I'm 6 foot, and I'm pretty confident I could take anyone shorter than me. Unless they were real quick and strong. Weight's a bit iffier because you can be slim and still be fast, but if you're real big and slow I've got a good chance of winning. So, I can't say for sure."

Micha: "Cookies are fun! Especially sugar cookies, me and my little sister used to make them together, they're super fun to decorate too!"

Nico: "I like blues, purples are cool too though!"

Now my questions!

All your characters: If you could change one thing (any thing) about yourself, what would it be?

Otiaku: How good are you at interpreting unspoken signals?

Beste: Whatever kind of party that's your favorite.

Irfam: How do you feel about compliments?

Raphael: Just giving you a little peace before this question, haha. Otiaku and Ash are badly injured, but you are only able to save one, which do you choose and why?

Promachus: Completely understandable. Say you die tonight, what would your biggest regret be?

Revan: Alright then. Is there anything that would make you consider maybe, you know, listening to Nico?

Aries: Who of the group have/might you confide in the most?

Gen'ya: What memory do you have that makes you smile?

Gorōta: If you could choose to be any fictional character, who would you choose and why?

Nice, lmao. I've never failed a class, but I fucking stress over math all the time. Science less so, mostly just the more mathematical part of it. I will say though, the one class I almost failed was actually geography. I still get things mixed up and my family makes fun of me, which is fair XD

Revan; “Fine. Just let me finish these.”

The one you gave everyone!

Revan; “Hm… Does the need for sleep count? I would make it to where I don’t need it, if it does.”

Aries; “Whatever part of me that ends up making everyone mad at me…”

Gen’ya; “My appearance, specifically weight.”

Gorōta; “I’d like my eye back, probably…”

Otaiku; “Uhm… Probably my confidence, but I can technically already do that. Albeit for a limited amount of time…”

Raphael; “My blood pressure would be going back to normal rates, please and thank you.”

Beste; “Nothing. Why would I ever change anything? I’m awesome!”

Irfam; “Either my face or my brain. Given how I might be able to eventually fix my brain through cybernetic implants— don’t tell Kostas, pretty sure he doesn’t like it when I do those— I’d probably go with fixing my face.”

Promachus; “Probably my anger, so that I can be even more productive.”

And now the individual ones!

Otaiku; “Depends on who’s doing them. Different people have different signals. Usually though, especially with those in my group, I’m fairly good at interpreting them.”

Raphael; “Ugh… Hm… I hate having to choose, but Otaiku. He’s the leader of the group, and neither Amos nor Promachus could take over very well. Plus… And this is more selfish, but I’ve known Tai longer than I’ve known Irfam. And I’ve known Irfam for like, 11 or 12 years.”

Beste; “A damn club then! Duh. The best parties are the loud, shake the roof ones. So either a club, or some large building that no one cares about if it gets trashed or not.”

Irfam; “Compliments? You mean like- To me? And what kind? Certain compliments make me feel icky, and gross. Other ones make my day. The vast majority of them seem, uh… Uncalled for? Undeserved? I still appreciate them though.”

Promachus; “I’d probably regret not doing more for the group. That I wasn’t able to see it to the end. Or that Irfam would have to find someone else to go to… Fuck, I don’t even know if they would.

Revan; “Well, what are they trying to convince me of? I’m guessing it’s to stop working or sleep or eat. Or something of that nature. In that case, not particularly. I’m more inclined to listen to someone that doesn’t normally try and tell me to do those things. Or if my functionality starts to actually get affected.”

Aries; “Uhm… I don’t think I want to confide in anyone, honestly… That usually just ends up hurting people, or making people mad… Or, something similar… I don’t want to bother anyone. I, uh… I don’t know who I would confide in most… Maybe Nico or Briar..? They seem the most talkative, so they’d probably at least tell me whenever I need to shut up…”

Gen’ya; “Basically any with the band.”

Gorōta; “Hm… Probably, like, Merlin? I mean, he’s the greatest wizard and could probably help tons of people- Save tons of lives. Plus, not only does he have two eyes but I’m pretty sure he also can see out of like… A bird’s eyes too? I think. I may be wrong about that, it’s been a long while since I watched or read anything with Merlin in it…”

And now my questions!

To all your characters; Great, great. What’s your biggest weakness?

Amos; Ooh, I like those flavors too. Biggest regret?

Sol; Understandable. What type of hallucinations do you normally get? Auditory, visual, olfactory, tactile, gustatory, general somatic?

Amory; Nice, nice. Basic, just like you. Favorite flavor? Like… Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, bland?

Kostas; That makes sense. How do you like to celebrate success?

Ash; Favorite type of joke?

Horatio; Oo, all of that is smart. What’s your attachment type?

Briar; Alright, I can understand that. Without either of you having/using powers, do you think you’d have a chance against Aries?

Micha; Sugar cookies are great. Do you plan to do any baking/cooking for the group?

Nico; Blues and purples are nice. Least favorite color?

Wow lmao, I hated geography too actually. I was relatively good at it, I just didn’t enjoy it at all. Biology and chemistry are both fun. I didn’t enjoy geometry much, solely because of proofs. Like, no, don’t bring entire sentences into math. I like algebra though.

Nico: "Fine. As long as you eat after too. Pinky promise."

Nico can be bribed by cuddles more than money, lmao

Also, this quote belongs to them, you can't tell me otherwise, lol

Revan: "I would do anything for you."
Nico: "Really? I want you to eat enough and have a decent sleep schedule."
Revan: "..."
Revan: "Anything else?"

Now for the question you gave everyone!

Horatio: "Mira and Juno have both alerted me to the fact that I put too much pressure on myself to ensure the safety of others and blame myself when something goes wrong. Although I don't necessarily agree with them, it is my job to protect others, it is what they have said. If you were to ask me my own opinion, I would say my biggest weakness is not being in tune enough with my own emotions to recognize others' pain."

Micha: "My biggest weakness... Probably my shyness. I struggle to communicate properly because of it."

Nico: "Ummm, I guess the fact that I repress my emotions so much? Like, put on a happy face and stuff?"

Briar: "Me? Weakness? Noooo. Okay, maybe, like, being too chaotic or something?"

Amory: "I'm not weak. But I guess my need to protect Sol and everyone else. Still not weak!"

Amos: "I neglect myself for others' benefit, ha."

Kostas: "My lack of emotion is both a great strength and weakness."

Ash: "M-my mental health... I-I guess..."

Sol: "Can I just say my whole mind? It's all messed up."

Now individual questions!

Amos: "Damn, I gotta lot of those. Ummm, I guess my biggest would be, uh, how I lost my best friend. If it wasn't for me, she might still be alive."

Sol: "I have a little bit of everything, though auditory, visual, and general somatic are the most common."

Amory: "Again, fuck you. I like spicy foods best."

Kostas: "I don't celebrate much, but I suppose you could count allowing myself a few hours of relaxation after a project is finished and successful as a celebration."

Ash: "A-any jokes are f-fine... I don't r-really have a p-preferance."

Horatio: "Dismissive-avoident. I don't like asking for help, especially with emotional subjects."

Briar: "Assuming that Aries was actually willing to fight me without freaking out, not really. He's still much stronger and taller than I am."

Micha: "I'd be happy to if anyone wants me to! I think it would be fun for at least a few of us to make cookies together, I could teach everyone!"

Nico: "Piss green-yellow. That shit's disgusting, don't know why anyone likes it! Neon yellow too!"

Now my questions!

All your characters: Say a fight/argument breaks out in your group, how do you handle it? Do you choose sides or not? Do you join in the fight, try to calm everyone down, or avoid the conflict all together?

Otiaku: Say you learned about a group member being abused, how would you handle that?

Beste: Sounds fun (and anxiety inducing)! What's your love language? Or love languages?

Irfam: Who would you consider a surprising ally/friend?

Raphael: What's your biggest pet peeve?

Promachus: If you could save one thing from your burning house, what would you save?

Revan: Ah yes, ignore the person who's trying to make you take care of yourself- Anyway, when was the last time you made a promise, and did you keep it?

Aries: If the group was in danger but you could only save one person, who would it be?

Gen'ya: Aw, sweet! How do you feel about promises? Do you make them or not, and if so, do you keep them?

Gorōta: Nice! What are you most proud of?

Yeah, proofs such, lmao

Revan; “Fine. Just let me finish these.”

The one you gave everyone!

Revan; “I would pick a side privately, but unless the argument directly involved me, I wouldn’t publicly state my opinions. Otherwise, it isn’t my problem and I’d avoid it.”

Aries; “I, uh… I’d probably avoid choosing sides, and try to get the sides to compromise… Or I’d just agree with the majority, or uh… Whoever’s loudest. Or most likely to get mad if I don’t. I’d try to make sure nothing happens though, that the argument doesn’t escalate. Rarely, I might end up choosing a side based on other factors. Like promises, or repaying someone, or personal values… Or if no one else is on someone’s side, because everyone should at least have someone backing them up.”

Gen’ya; “I might not say whose side I’m on, but I would always have a side decided upon. I’d try to calm everyone down, and might point out faults on whichever side I don’t agree with.”

Gorōta; “I’d uh, I’d probably try not to choose a side and calm everyone down. If I couldn’t then I’d just avoid it…”

Otaiku; “As the leader of my group, I’d try and calm everyone down. I’d listen to both sides, consider both, think it through, and try to come up with a compromise that everyone would be happy with.”

Raphael; “If it doesn’t concern me, then I’d avoid getting into it, even if I end up forming an opinion on it. If it does concern me, then I’d simply state which side I'm on without getting into it any further. If it’s about my medical expertise, however, I will probably get into it a bit more.”

Beste; “I’ll totally be choosing sides and making it known, if the group wants to argue, then I’ll argue!”

Irfam; “Uh, depends on what the fight is about, I guess. And just whatever I feel like that day. Sometimes, I don’t hesitate to join and pick sides. Other times, not so much.”

Promachus; “As second in command of the group, I would make a decision and pick a side. At least privately. I would help the sides compromise if needed, or explain why one side is right. I would never avoid an argument though, and one way or another, I’d end it.”

And now the individual ones!

Otaiku; “...Is someone being abused? This sounds like a very, uhm, specific question. Hm… I’d offer a shoulder for them to lean on, at the very least. It can be hard to get out of those situations safely, especially for the one being abused. But if possible to do so safely, I would try and get them out.”

Raphael; “When someone has the nerve to argue with my medical advice to my face.”

Beste; “Quality time, touch, and gifts!”

Irfam; “Uhm… All of them? I guess the most surprising one is Amory though. Who is totally, 100%, my friend and ally.”

Promachus; “Hm… Probably the gift I was given by my late coworker who I had been partnered with for years. A book that I still haven’t read.”

Revan; “Uh… Years ago, to my niece, and… No, I didn’t keep it.”

Aries; “Uhm- I… I don’t know… Horatio, I-I guess? He could rewind time and save everyone else, right?”

Gen’ya; “I tend not to make promises, I see them as things you make only if you can keep them. As such, I usually keep them whenever I do make them.”

Gorōta; “Hm… Probably, uh, that I was chosen to be the healer of the group, actually.”

And now my questions!

To all your characters; Great answers! Now what’s your biggest strength?

Amos; Ah, the probably unnecessary guilt. Great. So… Favorite animal?

Sol; Makes sense, makes sense. Any specific hallucinations that tend to come up repeatedly?

Amory; Spicy food is good. Other than Sol, who’s your favorite member? I don’t think I’ve already asked this.

Kostas; Yeah, that counts. Attachment style?

Ash; Ah, alright then. Is there anyone in the group you would choose to save over August in a life or death scenario?

Horatio; Makes sense. Favorite season?

Briar; Fair. Do you think there are any scenarios where you would have to fight anyone in the group? Like, for real, not just sparring.

Micha; Aww, that’s nice. Who do you think would be the best co-chef/baker?

Nico; Understandable, agreed. How easy are you to manipulate?

Nico: "Fine."

Horatio: "Probably my power.'

Micha: "Um, maybe my ability to get along with pretty much everyone?"

Nico: "Uhhhh, I guess my intelligence."

Briar: "My dashing look, obviously! Just kidding! Probably lying."

Amory: "My physical strength."

Amos: "Manipulation."

Kostas: "Again, my lack of emotion."

Ash: "I-I guess my p-power."

Sol: "My ability to make other people happy!"

Now individual ones!

Amos: "I like all animals, but if I had to choose a favorite, it'd probably be foxes. Arctic foxes to be exact, they're sooo cute!"

Sol: "I... Uh, yeah... I see Kano a lot. My... er... former partner. They died years ago, but I see and hear their voice all the time, usually it's accusatory and angry... I also get burning and pinching sensations a lot, usually along my back, and sometimes I feel like someone is pulling my hair. The worst ones are the voices though..."

Amory: "I don't like anyone but Sol. I guess Otiaku though, at least he's usually a decent leader."

Kostas: "Honestly, it's kind of a mixture of anxious-preoccupied and dismissive-avoidant. I often worry about people leaving, but I also tend to refrain from asking for help and, as you would expect, showing emotion."

Ash: "U-um... Maybe Otiaku..."

Horatio: "I enjoy spring and summer the most, mainly because I can't stand the cold."

Briar: "I don't think so, I mean, I hope not!"

Micha: "Uhh, I don't think anyone else knows how to cook, so I've got no idea. Probably not Briar, I love them, but I'm fairly sure they'd just destroy the kitchen. Maybe Gorōta?"

Nico: "Oh, uh, why? That's a worrying question... I guess I'm not too hard to manipulate, at least, not if you earn my trust first. That's pretty hard to do, but I guess if I'd been around you long enough to care about you then... Well, I've put myself in situations that have ended badly and I've ended up hurt because I care about someone enough that I don't care about what happens to me as long as they're happy..."

Now my questions!

All your characters: Great answers everyone! What's the worst way someone could betray your trust?

Otiaku: I guess you'll have to wait and see :). How would you react to a group member showing up at your house asking for help?

Beste: Favorite animal?

Irfam: I like your optimism, haha. What's your love language(s)?

Raphael: Understandable. I already asked Tia this, but how would you react if you learned about someone in the group was being abused.

Promachus: I see, and what's your most prized possession?

Revan: Say you were to die tomorrow, who would you want your last conversation to be with?

Aries: Good thinking. If you were an animal, what would you be?

Gen'ya: I see, what'ss your favorite myth?

Gorōta: Are you one to adopt strays (people and animals)? No reason, lol

The one you gave everyone!

Revan; “It’s hard for someone to gain my trust in the first place. The people I have trusted never really betrayed my trust, they died instead. There was only one time someone betrayed my trust, and there’s no way it’d happen again. So the information doesn’t matter.”

Aries; “Uhm… I don’t know… I don’t- People have only betrayed me when I did something to betray them first, and uh- Even those I wouldn’t uh, I wouldn’t really call betrayals. More like payback, or-or punishment. For what I did wrong. So, I’m not- I don’t know what would be the worst. Since I’d probably- Definitely, deserve the ‘betrayal’ anyways…”

Gen’ya; “Hm… Lying to my face and thinking they could get away with it. Especially now, with my power and all.”

Gorōta; “I guess by uh, hurting the people I care about without good reason.”

Otaiku; “By betraying the group, as the leader I need to make sure it doesn’t happen.”

Raphael; “Really? Hm… The worst way I can think of would probably need a sort of hypothetical to explain. So, let’s say that the group is falling to shit because of the clashing personalities and one of these clashing people decide to try and get someone off the team or in trouble using information and the idea that the person isn’t fit. If that person comes to me, or even worse goes behind my back, to reach medical files and break doctor-patient confidentiality? That would be the worst. Because not only is that a breach of doctor-patient confidentiality and against the law, but I would also get in trouble because of it. Them being willing to risk my license to practice medicine, yeah. That’s just about the worst.”

Beste; “Uh… I don’t really know. I guess, like, any toxic behavior, really.”

Irfam; “Hm… I guess like, undermining my abilities or just constantly putting me down? Then again, I do that too. Hm… Who knows? Pretty hard to betray my trust, haha.”

Promachus; “Given how I don’t trust but a few very specific people? It differs for each of them, based on what I know about them.”

And now the individual ones!

Otaiku; “I would let them in, make sure to ask before any sort of contact, probably boost my confidence so I don’t freak out. Maybe boost theirs too if they need it or want it and it seems safe. Make sure they’re comfortable and uninjured. If they’re injured, I’d see how bad it is before deciding if I needed to call Raph or not. If I do, then I call him and follow his advice.”

Raphael; “Well, I’d try to convince them to see me at the hospital I work at. After all, medical workers have to report any situation where there could be possible abuse, no matter how slim. Then, there would be an investigation, not to mention how the hospital wouldn’t be able to let the (maybe) victim out until the investigation was over. We wouldn’t be allowed to let the (maybe) abuser see the (maybe) victim during the investigation either. So, basically, I’d do my job in this situation.”

Beste; “Hm… I like all animals, to be honest. Peacocks are pretty cool though.”

Irfam; “Uh… Gifts? I mean like, if someone gifted me a bomb that they made and asked me on a date, that’d be awesome. I’d love that. I’d say yes, no hesitation. Absolutely, none. Explosions are just really cool. Also quality time though, and usually physical contact too. Ooooh, acts of service are also really helpful. Like, someone doing my laundry and cleaning? Definitely helpful. And appreciated. And loved. Just- Thank you so much. For caring enough to do the stuff I forget to do all the time. To be honest- All of them work pretty well on me…”

Promachus; “The book I mentioned already. Why else would I risk saving it from my burning house?”

Revan; “My mother, actually. I hate her, but… Well… Yeah. My mother… Or someone at work, a coworker. You know? Talking about uh, work.”

Aries; “Uh… I don’t know… Maybe a, uh, mongoose? Maybe? I don’t really know… I’d have to ask several other people, see if there’s a common theme or not…”

Gen’ya; “Favorite myth? Hm… Probably the myth of Pandora’s box.”

Gorōta; “I mean… I’ve introduced some people to my friend group that ended up in the group too. And I’ve taken in injured stray animals before. I never got to keep any though, I never took them home either. Just to Two’s apartment until they were healed. I definitely would bring them in permanently if I could though.”

And now my questions!

To all your characters; Good answers. You get one wish, what is it?

Amos; They really are. Least favorite animal?

Sol; Yeah, those don’t sound too good. Do you take any antipsychotics?

Amory; How intimidating is Raphael?

Kostas; Fair. Love language? Both receiving and giving.

Ash; Alright then… Who would you sacrifice for August with no hesitation?

Horatio; Understandable. Who do you think you’ll have to intervene with first?

Briar; Hopefully indeed. Who are you most likely to pick a fight with and lose to?

Micha; Maybe. Favorite thing to cook?

Nico; Makes sense. Favorite hobby?

Sorry this took so long to get out, I was away from home this weekend.

The one you gave everyone!

Horatio: "That my group will always be protected."

Micha: "Ummm, probably universal peace."

Nico: "It... It's selfish, but I want to say that I will never have to go through my trauma again, or maybe that it never happened in the first place."

Briar: "I would wish for happiness to all!"

Amory: "That I'm strong enough to protect everyone always."

Amos: "I would probably wish that all of my kiddos were always safe and never had to experience any pain."

Kostas: "I would wish that Irfam would gain self-respect and trust me enough to let me help them with the things he needs."

Ash: "T-that everyone e-else was h-happy..."

Sol: "I would wish for peace. Both mental and physical for me and those I love."

Now the individual ones!

Amos: "Mosquitos. I mean, they count right? 'Cause they suck. No pun intended."

Sol: "Not currently, no. I... tried some previously, but they actually made my hallucinations worse... Pretty unhelpful."

Amory: "In general, he's not intimidating at all. If you disregard his medical advice, I admit, he's scary. Not that I'm actually scared, obviously, I just don't ignore his advice."

Kostas: "For receiving, I like words of confirmation and acts of service. For giving, words of confirmation, acts of service, some gift giving, and occasionally physical touch if the other person expresses their need or desire for it."

Ash: "I-I would n-never sacrifice anyone! W-well... Except myself... D-does that count?"

Horatio: "Likely Aries. I'm already noticing extremely self-destructive habits."

Briar: "Most likely to? Uhhhh, I don't really know, man. I guess Horatio? Just 'cause he's leader and rules really aren't my thing."

Micha: "Ooo, okay, so I really like making a dish that's actually Persian in origin! It's really simple but delicious, it's called a 'Saffron Rice Pilaf.' Basically it's just rice (Basmati is the best) with a bunch of spices, chopped almonds, and apricots! Absolutely delicious, I could eat it as a desert, the saltiness of the rice and spices mixed with the sweetness of the apricots and the crunchines of the nuts is just perfect!"

Nico: "I actually really love to read! I know, kinda boring for someone as energetic as me, right? It's kinda my calming activity though, it's nice to curl up under a load of blankets and just read, extra points if you've got a kitty or significant other to share the time with!"

Now my questions!

All your characters: I see, thanks everyone! What's success look like to you?

Otiaku: Good, good. I don't think I've asked this, what's it mean to be leader? What do you think your job is, basically?

Beste: Peacocks are awesome! What irrational fear do you have?

Irfam: Good to know, I kinda doubt anyone would ever gift you a bomb, but hey, you never know, haha. Okay, this may be a hard one, but what's the stupidest thing you've ever done just because someone told you you couldn't?

Raphael: Yeah, that makes sense actually- Alright, so how would you react to a group member showing up at your house asking for help?

Promachus: Yeah, makes sense, haha. Are you a hugger? Asking for a friend (coughAmoscough) :).

Revan: Hmmm, interesting. Okay, do you hold grudges? For how long?

Aries: What's your ideal living space?

Gen'ya: Cool! What's your love language, giving and getting?

Gorōta: Amazing. What's your favorite memory?
