Ciaran: I've never played them before. We don't have the technology for video games on my island.

Preshea: I'm way too busy going places with my friends to play video games. I play them, sure, but I'm not a gaming nut. I guess I like those RPG games though.

What is considered a good day for your MC?

Calleigh: Talking to Grandma when I was like five about how I wanted to be a mermaid when I grew up. Turns out they don't exist, but that's when I got hooked on dolphins instead.

What the worst birthday present your mc ever received?

Pai: When I was about to do a jump side kick in front my entire tae kwon do class and Zach, my crush, said, "Don't worry. If you fall, I'll just catch you." Right in front of the whole class. I mean, everyone heard him. And yeah, sure, I'm not that good at tae kwon do. But I'm not that bad either. So did I fall? Yeah. Right in front of everyone. At least he caught me like he said he would. That was the most embarrassing part. Well, and that he kissed me.

What would you buy with a $1000 shopping spree?

Ally: I'd let my friend Max have it, he has a rough time with money... he would probably buy video games and food with it though.

Ever laugh so hard you cried? Why?

Sophia: The time I tried to cook Ethan supper, we were so tired of takeout. I burnt the crap out of the chicken, forgot to add ingredients to the side dishes and mistaked sale for sugar. It was a total disaters but in the end we laughed so hard about it, and from now on the cooking is up to Ethan.

If your MC dressed up for halloween what would they wear and why?

Ally: we go trick or treating every year, no matter how old we are. ok so our neighborhood does halloween the sunday before (long story) so we dressed up as the scooby doo gang the first time second time, we were escaped mental patients that had experments done on them. It was awesome i did the makeup, liquid latex and stage blood can do wonders! Why.. because halloween is more important to me then my birthday, and i love the scare the crap out of everyone...

What's the worst thing your MC's ever done?

Alisse: I used to be happy with who I was, but I wish I was more like Adele. She's so confident and talented, I wish I could be just like her.

Adele: Alisse, I guess. She was rich, happy, had a loving family and a lot of friends. Exactly the opposite of me.

What is your MC's favorite kind of pasta?

Bryce: Does macaroni and cheese count? Kidding. In all seriousness, I'd die for my mother's steak ravioli with the spinach sauce. It's unbelievable.

Favorite shoes?

Lynn: I have this pink pajama set where the pants are all fuzzy and warm, yep those are my fave (I have fuzzy pink slippers for it too )

How many marshmallows does you MC like in their hot cocoa?

Vynen once poured the hot cocoa into the marshmallows bag, with predictable results. He isn't allowed to get near any of them since.

If your MC had to choose between Athena, Hera and Aphrodite to give them the Golden Apple for the most beautiful, who'd receive it?


(p.s. Vynen, my MC, would eat the apple)

Tess: Aphrodite, because anybody else -- they're just fooling themselves, right? And I suspect I'll be punished no matter what choice I make, so I might as well be honest.

Does your MC like roller coasters?

Calleigh: Wow, tough one. We don't exactly have any in Bradford, Minnesota. You know, being a small town and everything. And it's not like I've been in the mood lately to do anything fun or scary.

What's the best present (doesn't have to be a physical one) your mc ever received?

Ally: well i guess when Laura bought me a conversion disk for my PS2, Max bought me the japanese only version of Kingdom Hearts II final mix+, and Pip tranlated every converstation in the game! And Tod and Jul got me a bunch of KH stuff. So it a combination of different gifts.

What was the best prank your mc ever pulled or had pulled on them?

Ciaran: I'd want to find cures for diseases. I don't know what that's called, but it would be great if I could. Perhaps I could find a cure for my own disease.

Preshea: I don't even know yet. I'm just living life as it comes at me. I'll worry about my career once I graduate from P.S. Prep 287 in Aruni.

What's your MC's favorite kind of music and why?

Arianna: Once, I went into the past and destroyed a tyrant, who turned out to be my ancestor, so I ceased to exist in the present and was stuck in the past. Not pleasant. I did come back after going even more into the past and fixing things, but that's another story.

What would MC wish for the most in the world?
