Harekuta Ishi
Sando Kaltoon
Troy Bellarosa
Nakamaki Izo

Who- and in Ishi's case, what- are you?
Ishi: Call me Ishi.
Me: Just Ishi?
Ishi: Slightly better than 'Sir.' Don't push it.
Me: And... what are you?
Ishi: Du'Shao. Desert planet evolution.
Me: Hence the pale skin, mirror-esque eyes, and slim figure?
Ishi: *He's smirking at me.*
----
Sando: Sando Kaltoon, a mage of some small repute.
Me: Funny way of saying 'Archmage' you've got there.
Sando: A little humility goes a long way.
---
Troy: Th'name's Troy Bellarosa- remember it.
---
Izo: Nakamaki Izo- where do you keep your booze around here?

Do you have any brothers or sisters?
Ishi: *Ishi remains silent at this question- I can't tell but I'm pretty sure he's glaring at me.*
---
Sando: I had a few- but, well, I don't have any now. Except for my step-brother-in-law, Arender.
---
Troy: Big Italian family, ya know? Lots o' brothers 'n sisters, cousins, aunts, uncles-
---
Izo: Nah, only child- where's the booze? I distinctly remember booze being mentioned.

What's your height?
Ishi: Five-Eleven.
---
Sando: I'm just over six feet tall.
---
Troy: Six-two and proud of it.
---
Izo: That has nothing to do with booze. Roll it out.
Me: Looks to be about 5-feet, eight inches- Touchy subje-?*At this point, I found myself on the floor- Izo assures me I fell down the stairs, but there's only one floor in the apartment.*

How old are you?
Ishi: Twenty Seven Earth Years.
Sando: Huh. Me too.
Troy: Twenty three.
Izo: Twenty-six. Booze. Give. Now.
*At this point, discretion is the better part of valor- I give Izo the aforementioned booze.*

Are you a virgin?
Ishi: ...Don't see how that's your business but... no.
Sando: ...I have a kid on the way. No.
Troy: ...Waitin' for the right girl, ya know?
Izo: ...BUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA- Oh! Wait, you were serious? FUCK NO! BAHAHAHAHAHA-

Who's your mate/spouse?
Ishi: *He's kinda starting to creep me out. Staring right through me. -shudder- No reply, though*
---
Sando: Her name's Malink- mother of my child and wife.
---
Troy: ...Don't have one- or haven't ya been payin' attention?
---
Izo: ...Long story... But... Well... There's this girl... And she's... kinda knocked up. And it's mine. And her dad... And her mum... and her grampa, and pretty much her entire fuckin' family is TERRIFYING. So... Well... *Izo quaffs what's left of the bottle* Here's to married livin'. Where's the rest?
Me: ...She have a name?
Izo: Saki.
Me: I don't have any- *At this point, he hits me in the knee with the bottle- I can only assume that this is her name, and not a beverage request.*

Do you have any kids?
Ishi: *Sweet monkey-jesus, this guy knows how to give me a creepy vibe. I think I'm going to be fleeing for my life soon enough.*
---
Sando: One- on the way. Eric tells me it's going to be a son- I'll name him after my brother, Triso.
---
Troy: ...Are you dense? Are you retarded? I'm a virgin, damnit!
---
Izo: ...just the one. You know, the one that's on the way, and destroying my bachelor-dom?... and where's the rest of the fuckin' booze?
Me: We're out.
Izo: I don't say another word until you bring the rest of the booze.

What's your favourite food?
Ishi: If you ask me one more stupid question, I'm going to turn you inside out.
---
Sando: ...I'm partial to venison with potatoes and honeyed mead.
---
Troy: Baked Ravioli like mum used to make.
---
Izo: I don't really have a favorite, so long as it goes with booze.

Have you killed anyone?
Ishi: A better question would be, 'Can I give you a reason why I'm not going to be the next one to get blood on your sword?'
---
Sando: ...Too many people, but... Well, that's the sad truth of the world, friend. I did not choose my path, but I have to walk it.
Me: Awfully profound.
Sando: I try.
---
Troy: No, not any... well, people, but... Ya know, I got no trouble killin Zombies and Werewolves and vampires and stuff- anything that's not human anymore.
---
Izo: Are you kiddin'? I've killed more people in my sleep than that last guy ever will.
Me: ...And you're proud of it?
Izo: ...why wouldn't I be? Anyone dumb enough to piss me off's either askin' for it or lookin' for it.

Do you hate anyone?
Ishi: As a matter of fact, plenty of people. And you're going about getting on that list the right way.
---
Sando: ...Mercifully, no one at the moment... But... Well, we don't talk about him anymore. He doesn't exist.
Me: You just don't want to talk about him?
Sando: No. Literally, he does not exist anymore. And good riddance, too.
Me: Ahh, Andaen.
Sando: Exactly.
---
Troy: No one specific. But there's a lot of THINGS I hate. For instance, never bein' able to sleep without a light on, or givin' the wrong people permission to enter the house.
---
Izo: Well, there's a few. But most of em are dead, so... No hard feelings. Still, I've heard all kinda bad things about these 'blue dragon' people, and since I think they're misrepresentin' what a dragon should be... *He shrugs and points to the two serpentine dragons tattooed upon his forearms.* I guess I got a bone to pick with em, considerin' how they treated the family I'm marryin' into.

Have any secrets?
Ishi: If I did, why would I tell you?
Me: Answer the question and this interview will be over that much quicker. You might even like it.
Ishi: Then the answer is no.
Me: ...You know... I don't think you're being truthful, but goddamnit, I can't tell.
---
Sando: A few. But since no one would believe you anyway? I'm on a first-name basis with the god of magic.
---
Troy: Well... I can't just go around tellin' everyone I meet that I see ghouls walkin' the streets and monsters in the alleyways, now, can I? An' I suppose the gun I have in my coat is a bit of a secret, too, but... well, nobody else on my block carries silver bullets.
---
Izo: What's my secret to being so damn handsome, strong, and able to drink a gallon of liquor, while still bein' able to talk a beautiful lady into bed?... Clean living.
Me: *I stifle a chuckle* And... Isn't there something about poetry...?
Izo: ...Fuck you.
Me: Want me to quote some?
Izo: You like going to the dentist often?
Me: ...no, why?
Izo: Quote me. You won't ever need a dentist again. I dare you.

Do you love anyone?
Ishi: *Once more, Ishi is silent.*
Me: You did love someone, though. I know that much.
Ishi: ...I did, once. But... It's all moot now.
---
Sando: My Malink and my son, Triso.
---
Troy: Again, with the relationship shit. I told ya, I don't have anybody; wish I did.
---
Izo: Love is for ninnies. I get on fine with her cousin Lust though.

What is your job?
Ishi: I'm a... Communications specialist. *I note the sarcasm in his tone.* I can say 'Surrender your valuables' in many languages.
---
Sando: Well... I used to be a task-mage, running here and there, dispensing lightning bolts and bladework as need be. I had a stint as the elected ruler of Anwar, and now I'm King, having married the only surviving princess of Anwar. I spend most of my time either administering to the governing details, or creating magical artifacts and such items of power. I'm told I'm an exceptional artificier.
---
Troy: I'm the cook at the local diner. If I wanted a better job, I'd have to sleep at night... and I don't like sleeping when it's dark out.
---
Izo: Well... I solve problems.
Me: Problems? Like...?
Izo: Math problems.
Me: *At this point, I am too stunned for words.*
Izo: Like, 'How many faces can I break in a minute?' or 'What's the shortest distance between that man and his grave?' and the ever-popular, 'How much is all this loot worth, and how much of that goes to buying food, so I don't starve and get the most booze for my work?' and 'How many women can I get in a night?'
Me: *There is a word for this: Facepalm.*

Boy or girl?
Ishi, Sando, Troy, Izo: MEN!

What do you do to relax?
Ishi: I write poetry.
Izo: You too? Kami, I thought I was the only one!
Ishi: Yes, well, my poems aren't about tits or booze.
Izo: ...then what the fuck do you write about?
Me: What else?
Ishi: You haven't been aboard a starship yet, so I'll let this one go without arguing the point, but I don't get much free time to relax. That's what leave is for.
Izo: Then do you at least drink?
Ishi: Yes, I do- ...God, shut up.
Izo: You don't, I can tell. You're too grumpy. Come have a drink sometime when you get down off your high horse.
---
Sando: Well, I'm a writer too- but a lot of my stuff is what you'd call boring. Magical theory, philosophy- and serenading my love whenever I get the chance.
Me: ...you sing?
Sando: ...yes, why?
Me: No real reason... Just hope you're better than me.
---
Troy: I cook. I like cookin'. Mum taught me all she knows. I make a better pizza pie than anyone you know, I promise ya that.
---
Izo: Has everything I've said gone in one ear and out the other? When I'm not on the job, it's a surefire bet that I'm either bonin' some girl, drinkin', or sleepin'.
Me: Or writing poetry.
Izo: Or writing poetrshut-the-fuck-up! *I woke up some time later, with Sando holding an ice-pack to my head.*

There's a person who's teasing you; what could you do?
Ishi: Ignore them. But if they bring honor into it, it's not teasing anymore.
Me: And I can only assume by then...?
Ishi: It's difficult to tease with lungs full of blood and sword.
---
Sando: It's not worth my time. If it's really bad...? Teleport them in a random direction.
---
Troy: It's all about respect for me- nobody teases me, cause nobody's got the guts, capiche?
---
Izo: ...Do you honestly not know by now?
Me: ...To be honest, I think I know, but for the sake of the readers?
Izo: ...I dunno, maybe beat the everloving shit out of them?

Let’s say you have a person who you really care about but she/ he doesn’t know about your feelings. How do you tell her/him?
Ishi: I don't understand what you mean.
Me: Like, love, or lust-
Ishi: ...Honestly? You think I go around giving out Valentine's gifts? I don't. I'm a Privateer. I fly around in space with a bunch of angry people and rob other people who are slightly less angry. And I am good at it. So you can leave this question in the airlock and vent the damn thing for all I care!
Izo: ...Touchy subject? Somebody hasn't been laid in years.
Me: *At this point, I left the room for my own safety. They made so much noise breaking all the furniture and smashing all the walls that I fear to return, though Izo and Ishi emerged some time later, laughing and joking like old friends.*
---
Sando: ...Well, I suppose just try and be honest about my feelings and myself... And I'm only human... Pretty much, at least.
---
Troy: To be honest? I'd take her to a nice restaurant, get her something good off the wine list, romance her with stories about home and life in the big city, buy her a nice ring and propose right there.
Me: I wasn't asking how you'd propose, just how to tell someone you cared.
Troy: ...so I took it a step farther. What's the harm?
---
Izo: ...Promise you won't tell anyone? *By now, Izo has been at all the booze in the apartment- there is precious little left and he is thoroughly smashed*
Me: I promise.
Izo: ...Poetry.
Me: Poetry?
Izo: Women are suckers for poems about their boobs.
Me: ...[i]Really[/i] now?
Izo: No lie.

Do you like your maker?
Ishi: To be honest? I've got nothing against him, since I don't believe in him anyway.
---
Sando: ...If I ever meet him, I'm going to hit him.
Me: Why?
Sando: Nine-tenths of my family is dead because he decided I killed them. I nearly died a thousand times because he thought it would be dramatic. And just when I think I found my little slice of happiness, he tried to take it all away from me! But, Oh, no, I wouldn't let him! Not this time!
Me: ...He also made you a little crazy at times, don't forget to mention that.
Sando: Oh, of course.
---
Troy: So far? He's been like another father to me. Gave me all the tools I need to survive- though I guess you could argue that without him makin' me see all those shadow creatures, I wouldn' need t'survive anything but normal livin' anyway.
---
Izo: He gave me a raw deal early on, but if I met him now, I'd kick him in the balls then buy him a drink.

What is your sexuality?
Ishi: ...I prefer women.
Sando: ...I'm married to a woman. I'll have to go with 'straight.'
Troy: Straight.
Izo: I chase women, and sometimes, they even chase me.

Okay, the people I tag- Pawsychan, Yamilink, and Saffytaffy.
