50 Questions because this is something people are doing · 3:39am Nov 1st, 2020
1. What is your first name?
Jordan
2. How old are you?
30
3. What country are you from?
USA, PNW
4. What do you look like?
Imagine Antonio Banderas, right? Then like, lower the attractiveness slider.
Lower...
Lower.
Close enough.
5. What do you wish you looked like?
I'm not sure I have an answer to this. I'm haunting my body, it's all the same to me.
6. How did you come across MLP:FIM?
S1, just came across it through pop culture osmosis, I think.
7. What is your favorite ship?
That is a rough one to answer. GildaShimmer is a strong contender, I mean, I wrote 500k words regarding it, so.... on the other hand I love AriaSet. Of course, Scampy will lynch me if I don't say SunFlower, so I'm not sure where I'm going with this. I'm a writer, I don't have a favorite.
8. What is your least favorite ship?
I'm pretty lukewarm on most ships. I mean, anything pedophilic I guess? That definitely a no-go for me.
9.Have you told anyone outside the fandom that you like MLP?
A few friends and roommates.
10. Were they a family member?
Nope
11. Favorite MLP episode?
Oofda. Uh... hm... Actually I'd probably have to say The Perfect Pear, if we're not counting EQG stuff. I really loved the story, and the song was top-notch, although that's probably highly colored by the fact that I will simp Felicia Day to my grave.
12. Who is your favorite superhero?
Don't think I actually have one. Most of my favorites are generally anti-heroes. Superheroes feel too staid nowadays, maybe it's just the way I grew up.
13. Favorite Anti-hero?
John Constantine. I've written about him at length on several occasions, but Garth Ennis' depiction of John informs so much of my writing for characters, plot, pace, and scene-setting.
14. Favorite supervillain?
Funnily enough, it's probably the Joker. Not because I actually like him, but because he really is a villain. There's pretty much nothing redeemable or admirable about him. There's nothing positive to associate with. If you vibe with the Joker, you're probably a douchebag, an idiot, or a psychopath (or potentially some combination of the three). The man is an emotionally manipulative, abusive, psychotic murderer whose main claim to fame is that the one guy who can catch him refuses to kill him.
15. Favorite anti-villain?
Probably Killmonger from the Black Panther movie. His motivations leave absolutely no room for half-measures. Either he goes all in or he does nothing, and he chooses to go all in.
16. What was the last book you read?
So because my job requires me to drive constantly, I mostly listen to audiobooks rather than read physical ones. The last physical one I read was Domino Strays by Tristan Palmgren. Last thing I listened to was the collected works of Alan Watts.
17. What is the last movie you watched?
Violet Evergarden: Eternity and the Auto Memory Doll
18. Favorite song at the moment?
More by K/DA
19. What song do you always come back to?
We Are Nowhere And It's Now by Bright Eyes
20. What is your current job?
Currently a dispatcher and occasional driver for a medical transport company. My job largely entails herding 20-25 vans driven by easily distracted cats carrying disabled people.
21. What job do you want in the future?
Writer. I would really like to write or run Dungeons & Dragons for a living.
22. Dream job?
See Above (so below?)
23. At this moment what is your greatest achievement?
Currently? Finishing Featherfall, I think. Holy crap was that a long story.
24. At this moment what is your greatest failure?
My massive folder of unfinished stories and unfinished D&D games. One game especially, the fact that I never got to finish it is tragic.
25. Do you have any pets?
No.
26. What is your dream pet?
A cat.
27. Do you own any weapons?
No.
28. Is there a gun you really want?
Not really.
29. What religion are you?
Kindness.
30. If you could hang out with one person in history, who would it be?
Alan Watts
31. If you could bring one person back from the dead, who would it be?
"I never look back, darling. It distracts from the now."
32. Are you political?
Eat the rich.
33. Are you married?
No.
34. Do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend?
No.
35. Have a crush on anyone?
Good question. I have a fascinating cocktail of disorders that basically sum up as: I wouldn't know.
36. Care to explain?
Not really, it's a long explanation. Sufficed to say, I'm not what you'd... personable.
37. Do you consider yourself attractive?
I wouldn't know.
38. If you could spend a day with someone alive who would it be?
I don't know, I have so few friends. Probably Scampy. Not many people can put up with me like she can.
39. Who is your favorite pony?
Toss up between Sunset Shimmer and Rainbow Dash.
40. Any embarrassing secrets you'd like to share?
I used to own a trench coat and listen to Otep.
41. If you have done any stories/art, what is your favorite piece?
The short answer is yes I have. But my 'favorite'? That's... like choosing between children.
42. Are you a virgin?
No.
43. What is the craziest thing you have done in your life?
I put a pedophile in jail.
44. Favorite TV show besides MLP?
ATLA & LoK, tying with She-Ra, and Seis Manos.
45. Do you have a fetish of any kind?
Not such as I would know. I'm ace.
46. Do you regret saying this fetish?
Nope.
47. What are some of your favorite MLP stories?
Lines and Webs is a phenomenal adventure story. The Upheaval series for the same reason. I also loved University Days, and pretty much anything by Chengar Qordath. Big shout out to Best Left Forgotten for being so gutwrenching. Not for the faint of heart.
48. Favorite quote?
Silly old universe, the more I save it the more it needs saving. It's a treadmill. Yes, yes, I know, they'll get it all wrong without me. Well, I suppose... one more lifetime wouldn't kill anyone. Well, except me. You wait a moment, 'Doctor', let's get it right! I've got a few things to say to you. Basic stuff first: Never be cruel, never be cowardly! And never eat pears! Remember, Hate is always foolish, and Love is always wise. Always try to be nice, but never fail to be kind. Oh, and, you mustn't tell anyone your name. No one would understand it anyway. Except the children. Children can hear it, sometimes, if their hearts are in the right place, and the stars are too, children can hear your name. But nobody else... nobody else, ever. Laugh hard, run fast, and Be kind.
49. Did you ever hurt someone's feelings just to hurt them?
Naturally.
50. Did you answer all these questions honestly?
Yeah.
We should absolutely hang out omg. I'm thinking Korean BBQ or something equally unhealthy

You dropped this king. 👑
5389860 5389858 I will allow this only if you invite me to the next one.

You are required by law to come to the first one too 👏
"One game especially, the fact that I never got to finish it is tragic."
Ah, I'm sorry about that.
"I put a pedophile in jail."
Huh. Nicely done, sounds like.
Also, we're the same age, at least in year numbers, but it sounds like you may have had a significantly more exciting life...
Nothing wrong with Otep and the occasional trench coat.
