Since we've had some requests for it, here it is! : ) The question of the day has its very own thread now!
Today's Question of the Day What does your character(s) aspire to be? What kind of big goal do they want to accomplish in their life, and do they have a plan to make it reality? Is this different from what they might have wanted to become when they were a child? (what did they want to be when they were a kid?)
Past questions
10. (Inspired by the Pokemon: Mystery Dungeon Games) What pokemon would your character be if they suddenly woke up in a pokemon-only world? Any special reasoning?
9. Genderswap! What would your character be like if they were the opposite gender? Would their personality change at all? What would be their reaction if they woke up one day, genderswapped?
8. How forgiving is your character? Would they be able to forgive someone for something small? Something big? What about lying? Or cheating? In a battle, relationship, game, or something else. What about stealing? Is there anything in particular that is really unforgivable for them, or has a surprisingly different reaction?
7. It's the New Year, which means it's time to make New Year Resolutions! Do your characters have any resolutions, and if so will they actually follow through and keep up with them?
6. Happy New years! Someone nearby grabbed your character and gave them a smooch! What is their reaction if it's a stranger? Someone they knew? Who would your character kiss at midnight?
5. What mythical animal would your character be? Any reason why, or does it just sort of 'fit'?
4. How does your character handle stress? What about intense situations, like being in a hold up? Would those who are present change their reaction at all? How much of a romantic is your character really? Deep down, does some part of them like the fluff and stuff, or no?
3. How does your character handle fear? Do they face it, run away, or try and endure it? Do they ever want to get over their fears, or are they just fine avoiding them/being afraid of them? If they wanted to get over them, is that something they'd actually do? To keep up the pattern, optional additional question is, What kind of relationships does your character like? Slow ones, that develop over a lot of time, or fast, immediate, fiery relationships? Or are they completely uninterested?
2. Hmmmm.... What's your character's favorite weather? Is there a reason? Do they do anything particular in that weather, or does it just feel more comfortable? And since I kind of like having the optional fluff question, If your character liked someone, what would they do? Would they act first, or wait for the other person to?
1. What's your character's favorite way to pass the time? And, if you want, What would their 'perfect' or 'preferred' date be?

Cheria's favorite pass time is photography, obviously!
As for her preferred date....Something casual. Nothing too romantic. Maybe a kiss on the hand or stargazing. But, mostly just spending time together at a dinner, talking and just having a good time really.
Guess I'll start this out(unless someone posts while I type this up), and answer both questions.
Kraven: 1. Despite being retired, Kraven would still spend a lot of her free time at the gym or just working out. Gotta do something with that nigh infinite stamina and all. But if that's not an option(Like it won't be during much of her journey) she'll listen to some music, boot up a game, or start getting noise complaints while playing the violin.
2. I tend to avoid the word "perfect" in the context of romantic relationships, so preferred is certainly the better word. Anyway, Kraven isn't exactly the pickiest person in the world, so as long as they're okay in the looks department and don't mind the fact that she's probably more muscular than they are, she'd certainly give them a chance.
Zero: 1. He'd probably just spend his time training his pokemon really, though other than that I could see Zero spending his time reading and chugging caffeine to ward off sleep.
2. Isis xD But in all seriousness, Zero isn't really the type of person who'd want a date, considering people who are just friends with him tend to have a bad time. So it'd probably be someone who could actually make him go on a date, or at least prove that doing that won't cause the moon to drop down on top of them.

Rose: 1. Her favorite way to pass time? Probably rock climbing, running, bike riding, playing with her pokemon - any number of things that means she gets to be active! Fynx's favorite way to pass time is probably to fuss over Rose's hair or outfit. = w= 2. Rose has never been on a date, and she never thinks of it. I think if she ever got into it, she'd probably just go with the flow of whoever is taking her on a date. Though, she'd probably most likely prefer an action filled adventure as opposed to just sitting around in a fancy restaurant.
Leon: 1. His favorite way to pass time is to go swimming when he can. Orflirtwiththelocalladies. He really likes to work with his pokemon, too. 2. His ideal date would be making sure his date is the happiest girl around, and to give them the best date that they want, though his wallet is rather limited. If she's satisfied with the date, he's satisfied.
Cyrus: 1. No surprise here, but Cyrus passes the time by pick pocketing or planning to steal something from someone. And ditching Perse anywhere he can. 2. Cyrus' perfect date ... well, in his point of view, would be with someone horribly gullible, but rich, that will buy him anything he wants, and not even notice when he robs them at the end of the night.
Bonus!! Gavyn: 1. Gavyn would likely pass the time by pacing around like a twit. He doesn't really have much of an attention deficit, but when nothing's going on, he tends to pace and think to himself over recent happenings. 2. His idea of a perfect date would be very old fashioned, where he would show up dressed nicely to ask the girl's father if he may take her on a date, and from there, if approved, he'd take the girl out to see a movie or maybe to a nice dinner. They might walk through a park and talk before he walks them home. However, if there was to be a kiss goodnight, he might get too flustered and back away, thanking them for the night before running off.
Shayna: Lesse... She likes to sketch. She likes to take a minute and let her pokemon play or find herself lost in the woods and sketch. Pokemon, Plants, People, stars, clouds. You name it biggrin For a date? Hmmmm, She's really romantic. She'd want a walk on the beach, stargazing and a picnic in the forest. Candles, roses. The whole nine yards haha. Gosh she's picky xD
Christen: Hmmm... She likes to Parkour and break a sweat. But when she is alone? She is totally going to be oogling the cute girly frilly stuff in the stores biggrin Date? Christen? Really? Uh.... Hmmm.... She's not really Romantic. Not at first anyway, she'd probably prefer a token of friendship first. Then maybe a day at a skate park or rock climbing. Something just the two of them or something.
NOW THE FUN ONE!!! Shenaiya: Dude, it's obvious just by her picture! She loves to play music and loves to listen to music. If it's not her flute, it's her violin, clarinet. SOMETHING. Singing is also up there. Date wise? Uh... Shenaiya really likes romantic stuff, but wouldn't go for that for herself. Doing something cute would be okay. A movie and dinner date would be fine. Or even just walking in a park. Something small and cute... But not totally awwww factor you know?

Dumuzi's favourite way to kill time would either be to read books or draw. She is very much an introverted person, so that quiet time is what she uses to recharge her batteries when they get low. More often that not, Du will read to pass the time, she does love her Horror novels and fairy tales and will more than likely do that over drawing. Drawing is more of an escape from problems more than it is a time killer.
As for the Date: Du's a pretty gentle and soft spoken girl, so taking her somewhere where its nice and quiet would really be a great way to impress her, places were you could steal some quiet, romantic moments where you could watch the moon or the sea in a peaceful solitude where it would just be you and Du would really make a impactful impression on her.

Tsubin is a doodler. He'll have a small sketchbook and some writing utensil out, doing quick studies of wherever he is and/or whoever is nearby. If he gets bored with it, he might take a short nap with his Pokemon. Or on them, if they're bigger than him.
As for that second question, Tsubin's not much of a romantic, as he sees them as too straightforward and predictable; he doesn't know where he would go with it. He would rather use the occasion as a fun, creative outlet where he and his "date" can let loose and make a big friggin mess over a large, flat surface. Nothing like bonding over creating something out of nothing, right? In the visual sense, of course.

Figured I might as well put this here My answers to yesterday's question
Ajicka's favorite past time is, obviously, training. Physical, mental, battle, or just personal health, she likes to take advantage of down time to train.
Lololol Ajicka on a date... Yeah... noooo. If some miracle like that were to ever happen, it would probably still involve training or battling or something. Have a romantic outing at Battle Tower, defeating trainer after trainer. Maybe as a double battle team or something.
Marx's favorite past time is probably running around, playing sports... or if he's just got nothing to do, sleeping.
Date... Well, if it were an 'official' date, he'd probably like watching a movie, sharing popcorn, kinda just walking around, or hanging out at the house... Just, spending time together and having fun. If it weren't an official date, a sort of 'unspoken' date instead or something, he'd probably really enjoy rock climbing or hiking or something as active.
JD likes sleeping. Believe it or not he's a lazy sort of cowboy, and will take any opportunity he gets to lay down on the grass and just sleep.
Honestly... no idea about the date thing. Probably going for a walk, dinner, or something, and then laying down together to listen (and stargaze, for the other person). I haven't really thought about that as much for him, though.
And for my fourth character, he spends his time on the internet, playing video games, with others online or by himself, perusing various webpages, and being a total internet geek.
And announce that the Question of the Day has been updated~
Kraven: 1. I'd say sunny, not swelteringly hot, but just a nice clear day with a cool breeze. Easier to just go outside and do something that way. 2. Kinda depends. Kraven's the type of person who'd rather ease into a relationship, so she'd take a little bit of time to see if the other is into them too, and in the mean time go ahead and do other things with them that might be considered date-ish. If all goes well she'd finally act properly.
Zero: 1. Cold and foggy. He spent a lot of time on Mt. Pyre, and he always found that kind of place weirdly calming. So he likes it when there's a bit of a mist in the air while the low temperatures offset any humidity. 2. He'd honestly wait for the other person to act. He might ask at some point or another if he feels that he's almost close enough to them for that, but typically he's not the kinda guy who'd act first.

Du loves the rain, there's just something about the peacefulness of the rain hitting the window and walking in it that fills her with a tranquility. It brings a freshness with it that Du enjoys as one of her favourite things that nature offers her.
If Du found someone that she liked, she would more than likely wait for them to make the first move to see if the feelings were mutual or not. That being said, she's not about some subtle (and not so subtle) flirting with the one that she likes. They may have to endure some teasing, but that's just Du's way of trying to find out if they're a higher strung personality or if there someone who knows how to take a joke- Du doesn't often care for people who are too tense and let the little things get them down or the people who take life too seriously. She needs a little fun and spice in her life, so she needs to see if these potential boyfriend/girlfriend materials have what it takes to help her along the road of her life.
Cheria's favorite weather....I'd have to say the rain. Not a fullblown storm. Just a casual drizzle, you know. She'd sit by the window and watch the rain belt the glass, probably feeling calm. I imagine she even has a secret pleasure to going outside and dancing in the rain. >w<
As for what she'd do if she liked someone (and, was absolutely sure of it!)....I think she'd wait for them to confess or not, instead of taking the risk of rejection. At least for awhile. After maybe a year or two, she would probably tell them and suck if up if they rejected her, already expecting that they're not interested. It also depends on what the other person's like. She'd feel my more confident confessing to someone who's easygoing and less likely to be a jerk about it than someone confident and arrogant.

sakiko would share gadgets with them and her favorite weather is a cool dry spring with a cloudy sky like something youd see in the mountains.
Rose: 1. Rose's favorite weather is a bright, sunny day with a nice breeze. It's the perfect weather to go out and run around and generally be active out. Fynx hasn't been able to show this yet, but she actually likes snow. And not just because she can provide her trainer with warmth. 2. I dunno. Like... Rose is kind of unaware of those kinds of feelings - kind of oblivious. So, most likely, if someone liked her, they'd have to declare it to her. I suppose later on in her plot when she becomes more aware of romantic feelings, she might admit her feelings right out. It all really depends on the situation though.
Leon: 1. Leon's favorite weather... hmm. He does like rain a lot. Not because it's calming, but because no one's at the beach when it's raining. It also makes for a good getaway to go back home and be lazy for a bit. He does like snow for the same reasons, but he thinks that winter is more romantic. 2. When Leon likes someone, he will most definitely make it known. Like a mighty lion, he will walk right up to them and declare it, or even bring them on a date in which he hopes to sweep them off of their feet. He is most definitely one to pursue someone he liked. Rejections do hurt, but he can get over them.
Cyrus: 1. His favorite weather is just clear skies. Even then, he really doesn't have a CLEAR favorite. 2. Cyrus like, never likes anyone. It's incredibly difficult to get him to genuinely like someone. However, if he likes someone in a 'you are an okay person to be around' way, he wouldn't steal from them.
BONUS! Gavyn: 1. Dry, cool weather that is common during Autumn. It really has more to do with his liking for the autumn season. 2. If Gavyn liked someone, he'd likely leave them cute little gifts, but would likely not ever get the nerve up to declare it.

Skylark's favorite weather would have to be clear weather. No rain, few clouds. Especially at night or while flying. But, she does like to sit out in heavy rain sometimes when the ship is grounded.
If she likes someone, she would definitely let them know. Not outright, though! She'd be a secret admirer person. Random little gifts, flowers, the whole thing. Only when they took an investigative approach to who their admirer is would she confess.

Tsubin likes it cloudy, but not too where it's practically overcast. Direct sunlight can be blinding, but with the occasional cloud covering the sun, he just has preference for that lighting, drawing or not. Also, he enjoys catching a glimpse of a fire rainbow if the sun is at the right angle to the clouds around it.
If Tsubin has a crush on someone, he would find it difficult to not have a picture of their face on his mind. Occasionally, it might just end up in a non-scenic drawing of his and it would take a while to realize what he did. He's not very confrontational, and would likely wait for the person in question. More than likely, he'll be skittish and slightly paranoid around them.
