~ LUCA, THE MENTOR ~
Q: Among Anaphiel, who would you rather pet you in your cat form?
A: Great question. I will proceed from eldest to youngest. Seokjin has never volunteered to hold or pet me until he had to or needed to. I think that after all these years, he never adjusted to thinking of me as his King and his loyal feline friend at the same time. Yoongi is very gentle when he holds me. It almost makes me feel special. Hoseok does a decent job, but he is so loud that it is hard for me to relax near him. Imagine trying to take a nap and getting screamed at. Namjoon will start to pet me, but get so caught up in his own mind he forgets I am in his lap. It is annoying having to nudge him to get what I am asking for. I quite enjoy Jimin, except for when he tries to pick me up and make me sleep on his bed at night. I feel more like a prisoner with him. Taehyung gives me the most proper attention even though we bicker. He also acknowledges that I love being scratched under the chin and behind the ears. As for Jungkook... well, the boy is a tad awkward with animals. Taehyung will be my best bet with Yoongi a close second.
Q: If your other form wasn't a cat, what would it be?
A: I would like to try being a fox because they are mischievous and also adorable. It would be difficult to blend in as a fox in an urban setting though. So perhaps a ferret as a last choice. If you thought I would ever say dog then you are sorely mistaken.
Q: Do you like hugs?
A: Yes, but not too tight.
Q: Which form do you like to be in most, cat, man, or kid?
A: Being a cat is far too comfortable to resist. Napping, sugary snacks, being pet all the time? I would be a fool to pass it up.
Q: What is your favorite thing about your favorite person?
A: I can only pick one favorite, hm? I admire Variel's resiliency. She is my one and only sister, also my weakness so this may be by default. However, she remained trapped in someone else's mind for centuries and never forgot who she was. I was heavily leaning towards choosing one of my younger friends like Grey or Anaphiel or Amelia, but I could not pick between them. I care for them too much.
Q: Who out of Anaphiel should never own a pet?
A: I pray for the animal that must be trapped in Park Jimin's room as a hostage.
Q: Who was the most handsome member of Anaphiel?
A: Seokjin must have submitted this one.
M.S. : I cannot disclose the identities of our participants.
LUCA: I will not give him the satisfaction. It was me, Seokjin. I was the most handsome.
Q: How are you so wise? You helped so many people with figuring things out. How can you do that?
A: Time. Experience.
~ AMELIA, THE BRAVE ~
Q: How did you feel when you first encountered Joon? Was it love at first sight, or hate that turned into fondness?
A: The second one. I can't even say I hated him, I just didn't know what the hell he was and I didn't care to know. He was the only one that tried to talk to me when I first got there, so that at least let me know he spoke my language. His attempts to keep reaching out really helped too. Grey wasn't telling me much, but he was telling me what he knew in that cryptic, mysterious, 'I am Namjoon and my brain is too big for my body' kind of way. That was all I asked for, and he answered.
Q: Had you been in Grey's place, what would you have done differently?
A: How do I answer that? And I mean, not even to be rude or anything but Grey did the best she could. Sure, she took the hard road sometimes. Okay, wait. A lot of the time she took the harder road, but I also think that's what she had to do. There's no easy way to save the world. If it were me though, I'd have confessed my feelings a lot sooner for the angel I picked. I also might have swung on Aelith if she came at me sideways, but that means I might have gotten killed way quicker. Lots of variables to consider here. That's why they picked her, because with me we'd all be dead already.
Q: Have you seen Namjoon since the Blood Moon?
A: No, but I'll wait until he returns. I'm sure they'll all come back. Maybe not Grey because she's from that other world, but I've still got Anaphiel. And before you try to ask something else, we'll figure out our relationship status when he gets here.
Q: If it was your turn to go on an adventure with Anaphiel, would you?
A: If I've learned anything, I know Anaphiel is going to ask me to do the absolute most. I've also learned that by the time they've asked, we have no choice but to get it done. I'd love another run.
Q: Who had the best superpower and why?
A: V-a-n-i-t-y. Vanity. The Queen. The legend. She washed Solis out with her own tidal wave. And apparently it was only an illusion? Goodbye.
Q: How did you feel being lied to by Grey?
A: Like an idiot. Like she thought I was born yesterday. It pissed me off. I felt like our nearly lifelong friendship meant nothing when things really got serious, when we should have needed each other. I don't know. I'm glad it's over with.
Q: Sum your adventure in Tear the Sky up into a few words or simplify it as best as possible.
A: Uhh, friend gets weird so I investigate and find out she has a reverse harem. I take one of her consorts and ride motorcycles? Does that work?
Q: Were you ever afraid for your life, being human?
A: No. I was never afraid. I was comfortable enough to grab a bunch of blankets and sleep outside. I was comfortable enough to wear my "F*ck Aelith" tee shirt around town. Come on. Did someone really ask this shit? You try being surrounded by immortals and demons nearly every day and tell me how safe you feel.
Q: Last words to wrap up your role in this adventure?
A: When your best friend says she's from another dimension, be wary to offer assistance. Haha, I'm kidding. Take everything one step at a time and take each step with all you've got.
~ GREY ~
*assuming she's kept her memory of events (current Grey does not remember a thing)
Q: How did you sleep at night knowing that the fate of the world was in your hands?
A: You don't. You don't sleep. You can't. I closed my eyes and just tried to relax my body. On some nights dreams came, and some nights they didn't. Actually, I wanted to sleep it all away and wake up when it was done. But I couldn't run from it, no matter how badly I wanted to. There were a lot of restless nights leading up to the Blood Moon. To temper it, I'd sneak into the living room and thankfully, one of the others was up and stressed out too. We'd talk until morning.
Q: In all honesty, why are you like this? Like girl wth?
A: Why am I like what? Did I do something wrong? I mean... it couldn't have been that bad. We made it to the end of the tale.
Q: Why didn't you choose Jungkook? Do you still care for him?
A: I should've known this would pop up. Jungkook is everything a girl could ever want. He's sweet, thoughtful, and brave. He led our entire charge for heaven's sake. We got off to a rocky start, but when he truly showed me who he was, how could I not fall in love with that? He was wonderful, and still is. When his cards are all lined up like this, it's hard to explain myself. But I'll say this. Jungkook had everything I needed, but so did Jin. Both men are wonderful, but I made my choice.
Q: Do you still reminisce about you and Yoongi?
A: Yes. Often. It's hard pass someone in a hallway that you shared so many secret moments with and not wonder what that could have been. But, maybe that's what he needed. Maybe we had to lose each other. Because after, we both grew. Nothing stopped either one of us.
Q: Why weren't you attracted to Hoseok or Namjoon?
A: Who said I wasn't attracted to them? I'd be insane to think anything else. Of course they're handsome. Hoseok and I settled into a comfortable pattern of being acquaintances and since he didn't push, I wasn't going to. Thankfully, I didn't. He and Rin are where they're supposed to be. As for Namjoon, he and I had major chemistry when we first met. I just... I don't think I could have been the one for him. He's too bright, and curious, and deep. And while I can try to understand, I wouldn't be on the same wavelength.
Q: Any thoughts on Luca?
A: He is a child. Did anyone see that coming? I didn't. He's a freaking thousand year old creature. I don't even know his true age, but his wisdom is far beyond what anyone can Earth can fathom. That mind does not belong in a child's body. And if he's just a kid with that mindset, then what the heck do Variel and Rowan think about? They probably thought I was less than a baby.
Q: If Anaphiel called you for another adventure, would you join?
A: My bags are already packed. Where are we going, guys?
Q: If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
A: Oh. I guess I'd change how awkward I am in conversation. It's not easy for me to start them. Like if I wasn't forced to be around the angels all the time, I could have easily died.
Q: If you could change one thing about what you did on this journey, what would it be?
A: I would be way more involved in the decision making. I sat back a lot and let them talk like I wasn't there in the beginning. I could have demanded a bit more respect. And it sounds easy now... but I'd have stabbed Solis a lot sooner. I was just afraid. If I saw him again, I'd probably be just as slow.
Q: If you could have a superpower from Anaphiel, who's would you have?
A: Yoongi's looks like it takes a lot of skill, so he'd be my first answer but that's also a lot of work and I don't have the memory for it. I freeze too much to be like Kook, and I wouldn't feel right turning into an overgrown wolf. Or becoming birdlike. I'd cry if I had to think as much as Namjoon. So, that leaves me Jimin and Jin? I would love my own pair of fangs, but choking people with shadows rocks too. Okay, okay, Jin's.
Q: Sum Tear the Sky up into only a few words or simplify it to the best of your ability.
A: Oh, gosh. Okay. Girl falls into big puddle, meets pretty men to help two brothers and a sister stop fighting each other. She also has a sword.
Q: You're about to lose your memories, what are your last words for the people that see this?
A: I'm about to lose my memories?
M.S. : Don't worry about that, just answer the question.
GREY: Okay... my last words. We did it. We won. Go win your battle. We'll be watching you and rooting for you too.
