Character Questions: THE TEST RUN

[gish]

Hey everyone, it's Gish! I had a thought earlier this week about how much fun it is to fill out FORMS. Which is to say, filling out questionnaires and quizzes about your character(s). It was something that went around a lot more with the old LJ Nexus days and in a curious attempt to bring it back in a new way, I thought I'd try this!

Under the cut is a questionnaire about character basics. No one's required to fill this out, or even fill out ALL of it. This is just for funsies and a chance for all of us to talk and think a bit more about our characters.

Depending on how this goes, I might look into making this a regular thing on the OOC comm with different focuses and themes. Anyway, have at it! I look forward to reading any and all responses!

You can't imagine how much I'm looking forward to that too, ngl

Also! You also kept Shatner-on-a-horse as an inspiration! And the camping scene from the movies omg. Hell to the yes TOS throwbacks.

Question, since it doesn't say here. Is your Kirk destined to age into a more Shatner-Kirk as he gets older? Mine is gonna get soft and a bit squishy when he gets older because i find the idea freaking adorable.

I imagine it'll be a conversation consisting of maybe 50% "what the fuck," haha. Especially if the conversation ever branches out to family outside of the immediate mom-and-brother situation. I rather doubt we've chosen the same names for his extended family members, lol.

Oh damn, I forgot to put camping in with his hobbies. Much more fun when you can actually prepare for wilderness survival ahead of time! (I don't care that Star Trek V had a generally meh plot, it was an absolute goldmine of triumvirate character development.)

I actually hadn't thought much about what happens when he gets older, tbh, but probably. It'd make a whole lotta sense.
