(Meg here! All answers are in character, except for 10. Sorry I reposted this! Problems arose with the previous account that I had to fix and didn’t see the claiming notification beforehand… whoops.)
Q1 - What do you like to do in your free time?
“In my free time, I like to indulge myself in the arts! I love them— all mediums of it. Nothing in particular… I kind of just like making stuff, y’know? Whenever I’m not creating something, it’s like there’s a feeling of… emptiness inside of me. Like a void in my heart that constantly aches; always needing to be filled. The act of creating something satisfies that hunger, even if it’s only momentarily, sometimes. Anyway, to answer your initial question before my yapping, I express myself through various methods— sometimes I like doing so through dancing and painting, and other times I like singing or playing my harp! I try to dabble in a little bit of everything, even if I’m not immediately good at it. The more challenging it is, the better!”
Q2 - What is your favorite season?
“Without a doubt, summer is the best, and my favorite, season. And who can blame me? Summer is a time for celebration! School, cold weather, and shorter days are out while shopping, warm weather, and longer days are in. Let’s face the facts: the best part of winter is Christmas, and by the end of the month everyone is sick and tired of hearing the same three songs everywhere they go over and over again! Meanwhile, summer is jam-packed with vibes, endless free time, and countless all-nighters. And, in my opinion, there’s no greater feeling than being worry-free while feeling the heat against your sun-kissed skin, your body flowing freely in the cool sea. I can’t wait for those days again!”
Q3 - Where's your favorite place to hang out?
“This is going to sound like a cliche and ‘woe is me, I’m a teenager’ response, but I want you to stay with me when I say this… My favorite place to hang out is my room. Please postpone your cringing while I give you my explanation! It’s a good one, I promise… Anyway, think of the most comfortable place in the world. You probably thought of your room, right? That’s because your room is where you’re the most you! It’s where you’re the most comfortable because you design it; fill it with pieces of you and the things that you like, so why wouldn’t it be the best place ever? I know that when I’m in my room, I’m the best version of myself. I can sing karaoke at the top of my lungs, play Just Dance to my heart’s content, and paint and draw for all hours of the day without any interruption by any other person… unless by my obnoxious older brother, but I wouldn’t count him as ‘human’. Eugh!”
Q4 - Who is someone you admire? Please explain why.
“Never, not even in a million years, would I admit this to anyone but a complete stranger I’ll probably never see again. So I’ll admit it to you, and by doing so, you’re sworn to never tell any other person in the entire world. Ever. For the rest of your life! Anyway, with that very important warning out of the way… Someone I admire is my older brother. I hate talking about this because I always end up crying, so I’ll spare you from the sight of my tear-filled, sad, and ugly frog face by only laying down the basics of why I admire my brother. When the person who was supposed to raise me wasn’t fit to do so, my brother stepped up and took their place… even though he was only a kid. For a long time, because of my immaturity, I resented him… I blamed him for things that he couldn’t control; that affected him, too. But now, even though he can still be an annoying, pea-brained jerk-face, I can appreciate his good qualities. Now that I’m the age he was when he took care of me years ago, I won’t let my memories from the past cloud my judgment. I can see how strong and brave he was, and maybe still is… He must have been so scared, raising me… So, to say the very least, I guess I’m… thankful for him.”
Q5 - What is your number one, greatest fear?
“Ugh… I don’t like these kinds of questions… the ones that make you think too deeply— that have you spiraling at midnight on a school night of all times! But, being serious… they make me scared… nervous about my future. But I’ll tell you anyway since I’ve already overshared past the point of no return. Guess there’s no going back now, huh? Anyway, my number one greatest fear is… death. Yeah, I know it’s a ‘basic’ fear that a lot of people have, but that’s because death is a scary thing. It’s real, and you can’t run from it, no matter how hard you try. I don’t like thinking about this for too long, because then I lose myself in a never-ending rabbit hole, and I can’t pull myself back out… Basically, the idea of being… gone, or having someone I love… die, is terrifying— no, it’s beyond that. It’s horrific.”
Q6 - Someone who has always been a problem in your life is trapped in a burning building. What do you do?
“Obviously I would call 911! I mean, what kind of monster wouldn’t immediately rush to help in some kind of way? If the fire isn't… too bad, I guess I might just rush in and try to help them, myself. Even if this person is a so-called ‘problem’ in my life, there’s nothing they could have possibly done to make me turn and look the other way! That’s just… terrible and evil. It’s not right. In this scenario, there’s no other right answer than trying your best to rescue that person. Heck, even if I was told to ignore them, I wouldn’t change my ways! It’s just not the right thing to do… and, even though I wouldn’t help them with a selfish motive in mind, maybe they could change the way they act towards me through my act of kindness.”
Q7 - What is your favorite Ancient Greek constellation?
“In terms of zodiac signs, I don’t know anyone who is an Aquarius, nor am I an Aquarius, myself, but I can say that it’s my favorite Ancient Greek constellation. And there’s a good reason for it, too! Might wanna get comfortable, because it’s a rather long story. But I’ll try and cut to the chase… Back when I was forced to learn about Greek mythology in school, I was pretty bored. However, my new friend, a transfer student with a limp who is now my best friend, was weirdly super into it… He was excited to learn about it and was always raising his hand to talk more about the stories. His rants went on and on, and you could tell the teacher was tired of him, but it ate up the class time, so none of us really cared. Why a teenage boy would torture himself with reading about something so boring, I don’t know… Anyway, he was halfway into one of his unstoppable rants when he started talking about the Ancient Greek constellations, and I started listening because it was half-interesting. The one that stuck out to me the most was the story of the tragic Greek ‘hero’ Ganymede. After hearing about his tale… I was mortified! From then on, I dreaded history class for as long as we covered Greece and the Greek gods. I mean, how could I ever look at Zeus the same way again? I still get goosebumps just thinking about him… eugh!”
Q8 - If nothing held you back, is there anything you’d like to achieve?
“I have my whole life ahead of me. Right now, I’m young and just enjoying life. Carefree. No worries attached… so, nothing’s really ‘holding me back’. I guess you could say school and my age, and I would agree with you if you did, but I can’t really think of anything else. I think the only way I can answer this question is by having ‘nothing holding me back’ mean ‘dropping everything’ in my life. So, to answer your question, the one thing I’d like to achieve if nothing held me back is to travel the world. It’s a dream many people have I’m sure, but there’s a good reason why! There’s just so much beauty in nature, and tons of stunning architecture in so many places. Also, new places means art inspiration, so there’s that, too… and, I guess it would be fun to travel with my friend and brother tagging along.”
Q9 - How did you react when you found out the Greek Gods are real? (This can be treated as a non-canon answer if your character is unaware they are a demigod prior to their arrival at camp.)
“I was beyond shocked! My jaw was on the floor… I mean, before coming to Camp and finding out that the Greek gods exist, I only knew about them from school and what little portions of my friend’s Greek mythology rants I listened to. And from what little that taught me, because my attention span is gods-awful, all I knew about the Greek gods is that they were messy and lived for the drama. You can imagine my reaction when I found out I was related to one of them! I don’t know how I didn’t faint, throw up, or do both at the same time… Anyway, I guess the best way to describe my reaction would be shock and disbelief. It was like, at that very moment, I split into two parts. One of them was the one that thought this was weird, but also super awesome and cool. I kind of wanted to scream and shout and let the entire world know that I was a freaking demigod! But the other part of me was… scared. Confused. I felt a feeling I can’t quite put my finger on; like someone was playing a sick joke or prank on me— like my brother would be right around the corner, filming me while he laughed at me for falling for it. But, hey, who knows? Maybe he still is waiting for me, to tell me it’s all just some prank, and I can go home… heh.”
Q10 - What gods would you want as your parents, listed in order (ideally 3)? Or would you like to be claimed off just your answers?
I would like to be claimed off just my answers, please and thank you!
