13. What animal would you like as a muse and why?

Cats please. Many many cats. Cats all over the place. I like cats.

Have done the washing up, bin, vacuuming, cleaned the hard floors and begun the laundry. Feeling a lot better about chores with half an hour to go until the Making Historical Dress workshop.

6. MC POV: Have you ever kept a secret from your closest friend? If so, why?

"By necessity, yes. I have an obligation not to share certain information, and a wish to keep her safe. This did not go as smoothly as planned."

[Sexy Bad Guy #3 just had a reckoning with his bestie, and she gave him a right dressing down about all the shit he was keeping from her. She did not accept the explanation that she and her family were safer not knowing. They've cleared the air, for now.]

It's like (on other platforms, haven't tried it here yet) whenever I've put tentative feelers out to see if other teetotallers want to share non-alcoholic drink recommendations or just to see if I can find other teetotallers, and all the drinkers decide they need to tell me how much they drink. Why are people like this 😟

26. Antagonist POV: Do you see what you do as evil?

Errenion can take this one

"Of course not. Yes, I have to do awful things. Yes, some of my actions are evil. They're monstrous. But they're in service of a better future and a wider good. And I don't enjoy them. At least, I didn't used to enjoy them. But I didn't used to be this hungry either."
