Character Interview take two: The Hawkes

Remember This? It was fun! Let's go again!


Rules:
1) Pick one or more of your FCs/OCs
2) Fill in the questions/statements as if you were your FC/OC


Character(s):
Malina Hawkwe


Smooths skirt as she sits, tucking hair behind her ear. She's joined a moment later by a dour-faced young man with black hair and bright blue eyes. "I can't believe you dragged me to this thing," he mutters.
"Oh, shut up, Carver. I never said you had to come." Rolling her eyes, she turns away from him and faces forward.

1.) What's your name?
M: Malina Hawke. This is Carver. Don't mind him, he'll grow on you. Much like a skin rash.

2.) Do you know why you were named that?
M: I was named after my father. Well, his name was Malcolm. If his name had been Malina I'd expect he would have had an even more troubled youth.
C: I wasn't even born yet and you'd already been named the favorite.
M: Oh, I'm sorry. Should I have told him to save it for you? Apparently I was very articulate for a newborn.

3. Are you single or taken?
M: Single. Very... very... *very* single. I'm kind of hoping that might change soon, though. I just met someone. We have... a lot in common.
C: Maker's breath, you don't mean--
M: He seemed very sweet.
C: He yelled at you, made us go with him to kill a bunch of templars, and while we were there his eyes started glowing.  And his voice changed.  I think he's an abo--
M: Well, then he'd be the last person to turn me over, wouldn't he?  Besides, did you see his eyes.  *sighs*

4.) Have any abilities or powers?
M: No! Nothing at all. I'm... completely average. Just a farmer's daughter from Lothering. Certainly not an apostate, if that's what you're implying. Nope.  *narrows eyes* why? Who said otherwise?
C: *cracks knuckles* Was it Gamlen?
M: Shit.  Fine.  I'm a mage.  and if you tell anyone.... well, let's just say you don't want to tell anyone.

5.) Stop being a Mary-sue.
M: Carver, wasn't that the girl you knew...
C: That was Peaches.
M: I meant from the Blooming Rose.
C: .... oh.   Um, maybe that was her name.  I don't quite remember.

6.) Uh... if you were to get in a fight with a strong wrestler, do you think you'd win?
M: Yes.
C: You cheat.
M: Fireballs aren't cheating, Carver.  They're... spicing things up. 
C: Cheat.

7.) Riiiight... Have any family members?
M: Him.  We've got a mother at home.  That's... yeah.  Our sister didn't make it out of Lothering, and pop died a few years ago. 
C: There's Gamlen.
M: Gamlen doesn't count.
C: *laughs* OK, I agree with that.

8.) Oh? How about pets?
M: We have a mabari.
C: (bitterly) You mean you have a mabari.
M: He's the family's dog.
C: He picked you after our father died.
M: I was surprised, too.  I always thought dogs liked things covered in interesting smells.

9.) Cool, I guess. Tell me something that you don't like.
M: Templars
C: Running from templars.

10.) Something that you do like?
M: Cherry turnovers.  I kind of like how the water looks here, we can see it since we live pretty close to the docks.  I liked winter in Ferelden.  Here it seems much... dirtier.
C: It does, doesn't it? 
M: Must have something to do with all the frozen corpses.  We didn't have so many in Lothering.  Different customs here, though.  I suppose we have to adapt.  Oh, and the pink snow.
C: Pink?
M: Well, the snow does dilute blood.

11.) Do you have any activities/hobbies that you like to do?
M: I like to cook.  Sometimes I knit.  I used to like taking care of the animals on our farm.  Well, when we had a farm.  I suspect most of the animals there now are genlocks, and I would rather not try and milk any of those if given the choice.
C: I'll give you five copper to try
M: Are you that thirsty?

12.)Have you ever hurt anyone in any way before?
M: don't be silly, we were nice smugglers.  The kind who offered flowers and fresh baked bread to convince people. 

13.)Ever... killed anyone before?
M: I should probably have been more clear.  By "flowers" I actually meant "fireballs" and "fresh baked bread" was "massive internal injuries brought on by large weapons."  Sorry for the confusion.

14.)What kind of animal are you?
M: The kind who might offer you a slice of bread if you imply I'm an animal again.
C: *snorts*

15.) Your worst habits
C: She's bossy, she has a bad temper, she tells horrible jokes.
M: He wasn't talking to you
C: oh?  So what were you going to say?
M: I'm far too nice to my brother.

16.)Do you look up to anyone at all?
M: I looked up to my father.  I miss him.
C: Me too.
M: But.. we just met someone who spends his whole day doing nothing but healing refugees... for free!  Can you even imagine!
C: Oh Maker.
M: I'm not exactly swimming in options, here, Carver!

17.)Gay, straight, or bi?
M: That's cute.  So... where you come from people are just... lining up for the illegal mages?  So much that they can be picky about gender?  Are you from Tevinter?

18.)Do you go to school?
M: No, my father taught me.

19.) Ever wanna marry and have kids one day?
M: Of course.  Bringing my father and sister back to life seems slightly more difficult, though, so I'll do that first.  The whole marriage and family can get penciled in for after I master necromancy.

20.)Do you have any fangirls/fanboys?
M: It isn't that much warmer in Kirkwall than it was in Lothering.

21.)What are you most afraid of?
M: Templars

22.)What colour is your hair?
M: Red

23.) Eyes?
M: Brown

24.) What do you usually wear?
M: This.  (gestures to chainmail over a skirt, and a ragged white blouse).  I've got robes but, well... I'm kind of scared to wear them in public.

25.)What's your religion?
M: What's that one where they say I should never have been born and deserve to be locked away or killed... blast, forgot the name.  Anyways, that's the one I was raised.  Surprising how I don't believe in anything now, isn't it?  I can't imagine why those teachings didn't stick...

26.)Do you wish this quiz is over?
M: *shrug* nothing better to do, and it saves me from watching Gamlen pick his ears. 

27.) Well, it's still not over.
M: You're just padding things out for length, aren't you? 

28.) Anyways, where do you live?
M: Lowtown, in Kirkwall.  It's actually quite charming, if you overlook the crippling poverty, the refugees, the filth, my uncle Gamlen, and the smells.

29.) What class are you? (Low class, middle class, high class)?
M: I met someone who was poorer than dirt once.  I wish we had as much money as he did.

30.) How many friends do you have?
M: A few... not many.  Most are still in Ferelden.  Or didn't make it out.  I... it isn't easy making friends.  Sooner or later they wonder why I'm so secretive.  And then they, you know, summon templars.

31.) If you could change anything about you, what would you change?
M: Sometimes I'd just like to be normal.
C: Oh please, spare me
M: Well, it's that or change everything else so I don't have to hide.  Neither seems all too fucking likely, does it?

32.) What are your thoughts on pie?
M: I make a decent pie.  Mother's is better.
C: It is.
M: I'll remember that the next time I cook, brother.

33.) Alright, What's your favourite food?
M: I miss tomato soup.  They have it here but... we used to make it with the tomatoes we grew. This stuff isn't the same.

34.) Favourite drink?
M: Ale, mostly.  I don't really have a "wine" kind of budget.

35.) What is your favourite place?
M: I don't think I have one, really.  There's one pier I like, since it's mostly abandoned and usually empty, where you can sit alone and look at the water.  That... sounds pretty pathetic, doesn't it?

36.) Least favourite?
M: Kirkwall
C: Kirkwall

37.) Are you still wanting the quiz to end?
M: Again with the padding.  Someone's overcompensating for something, isn't he? Hmmmm...

38.) Just say something to the others that filled this quiz with you.
M: Does this city make your head hurt, too? 

39.) Well, it's over.
M: Oh?  I suppose I'd better go.  We have a busy day of, um...
C: Being unemployed?
M: Right.  That.  Maybe I'll see if that healer could use a spare set of hands...
