Question Meme [OOC]

[aa_fandral]

Ask me questions about my character(s) and I will answer. The meme is entirely OOC, questions and answers both. Use it as a fun time to find about about character's choices, motivations, feelings, actions, or anything else you've been wondering.

I play: Mystique (Raven Darkholme), Fandral, and Bullseye.

Fandral is bisexual in theory but heterosexual in 800 years of practice. A lot of his sexual conduct is based off the social expectations and stereotypes he learned in the courts of Asgard, which really don't have a lot about having same-sex relations apart from 'well it's fine who cares, but taking it in the pooper is humiliating.'

I think he actually had 1 or 2 troubled older guys creepering at him when he was young, before figuring out it was bad for him reputationally (he ignored emotional effects because he is a boy) and let other people ruin those guys. A mild turn-off-- he's over it, has nothing against gays, knows other cultures view anal intercourse differently, blah blah dc. In my writing, he draws a lot from intelligent, high-functioning people I know IRL who lost their virginity at 11 or 12 years of age. Generally, Fandral doesn't see any problems with casual sex. He's down for whatever with whoever, as long as it's not going to be a problem, but his understanding of 'problems' are limited and structured by his relatively heteronormative upbringing.

As demonstrated in recent logs, Fandral is shitty at hatesex. He likes the people he has sex and never loves them. So despite that he would probably try most kinks in the universe (has probably even been peed and pooed on to the past, which Volstagg covered his ears in the retelling) he's oddly set in his ways.

Fandral's pretty content in the patriarchy of Asgard, and his position fairly high up the food chain (but below royalty). It's always treated him and his friends well, even if Sif had to break the mold with extreme force before she made it a comfy shape. Odin made some mistakes with sending Thor away, but it got better. Odin is making some huge mistakes with Loki, but Fandral is holding out for the hope that they will recognize Loki for his dastardly awfulness. If that doesn't happen, he'll have a lot more doubts and discontentment. I don't yet know if that means he'll be off-screen a lot more or start hanging out on Earth where all these American PCs are like, fuck the man!

Once upon a time, Hogun noticed that Firehooves was the fastest (probably just the most spirited rather than a distinct physiological advantage/difference) out of the available stock. Fandral picked him them named him Firehooves because the name suggested he could set afire to the turf he crossed at top speeds. It is a little bit of a boast. Fandral is very proud of him and his speed and his sass. Hogun was the one who taught him horses have personality and worth.

...cauliflower steak I think is something of a luxury in Ireland (where food, period, is expensive), so probably that. I don't think he thinks of it as 'his favorite' or cares very extremely about food, but if he was out to treat himself he'd get steak.

If Bullseye's ego could expand further than it had prior to the death train project, it would have. Fortunately it was already at maximum capacity. His egotism is almost absolute, for all that he knows he can't take a bomb or regenerate the way that the other local supervillains can. The current job is very comfortable for him, excelling at what he's always been good at, and making loads of money.
