Is retirement in your cards, or do you plan to work until your body gives out?

[sparito]

My father used to say, a true craftsman never stops. I think, even if he retires, the craft stays in the system, in the hands, until he draws his last breath.

[buson]

Don’t think y’can retire from my kinda work, no, but I’ll probably be doin’ less demanding work if I live that long…?

Don’t think they’d really wanna send an old geezer out to beat people up or hunt down wild beasts, no.

[abnormalizes]

At my job if you try to quit your boss straight up murders you, soooo...

[maynight]

Is retirement an option, actually?

[refantasma]

Work until I die. And then I start another job after that.

[qtipwrangler]

Probably work forever...

[chewiedout]

Hypothetical here, obviously. You go to the future, you meet your current partners kid, they are not your kid, you come home to your normal timeline. What do you do?

[catleaping]

I keep carrying on with my partner. The future doesn't have any effect on my present, and timelines diverge with every action you take, anyway. So there could be one timeline where I had a child with my partner, and one timeline where I didn't.

Why isn't 11 pronounce oneteen?

[buson]

‘Cause it sounds stupid, probably. Y’know what sounds even stupider?

Onety-one.

yukari takeba 💘 persona 4AU.

[snipers]

Are betrayals forgiveable?

[havenomercy]

No.

yennefer | the witcher | ota

[asorceress]

If given the option, would you rather your death be memorable or peaceful?

[zabanya]

It's probably not in the cards, but I'd pick peaceful.

[kunimeh]

Does anyone actually wake up feeling refreshed or is that a myth?

[snipers]

Myth, absolutely.

Elizabeth Jennings [The Americans]

[zmeyavtrave]

Why are people so inherently weak?

[havenomercy]

Because we're inherently social, which means behaving well is seen as the ideal for getting along and living harmoniously.

Is a clean public toilet and shower THE most important amenity, or are you bourgeoisie?

[gumboots]

[Look. Public toilets are the most important thing to locate in a new area. Fight him on it.]

[buson]

I ain’t, but I know someone who hates those amenities, but it’s also not just bein’ too bougie or whatever. People have their reasons.

Anyway, a clean one’s great, don’t wanna catch weird diseases showerin’ after a workout, but it’s definitely safer to just shower when y’get back home instead’a takin’ your socks off and gettin’ athlete’s foot for the umpteenth time or somethin’ because some sick guy wouldn’t stay off the mat.

Michael Guerin | Roswell, New Mexico

[cosmiccowboy]

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

[havenomercy]

I have absolutely no idea. I didn't think I'd make it to thirty. This last decade and onward is all a bonus as far as I'm concerned.

Helix | G.I. Joe

[covert_ops]

Why wait?

[allbedestroyed]

Sometimes waiting is the best option.

(future) trunks | dragon ball z/super.

[cautious]

If you could go back in time and change the past to make the world a better place for at least one version of world, would you?

[slaughtersword]

I've been tempted before. It's really hard to resist when the opportunity is sitting right in front of you. But, as badly as I'd like to do something like that, the consequences would just be too severe. It would be different if I were the only one affected, but...

Evangeline | OC (Lobotomy Corporation)

[abnormalizes]

How much do you care what other people think of you?

[roundandaround]

Uh... I mean, I guess I don't want them to get mad at me or anything?

Are we family by blood or by choice?

mei ★ pokemon

[snivies]

What kind of a person do you wanna be in the future? Someone cool, or wise? Maybe funny? A little mysterious, even?

casually causes a time paradox

[nightparades]

All of the above! I sure hope I've been able to become all that and more...

Bandou Saburouta | K

[pettymuch]

Alright, so you know how every western animation from the 90s has that one episode where the characters make a band? If you were gonna make one with your friends, what would you name it?

[ This may or may not have been inspired by a new ~friend~ of his. ]

[buson]

Ooh, how about The Silver Bullets!
Or The Real Steel. The Real Steels?

Man, if my partner named us, he’d probably pick somethin’ that almost kinda sounds normal, but is probably some kinda programmer jargon or weird, niche in-joke. He’s such a nerd. [Affectionately.]

Or if it’s just us as a duo, maybe it’ll be an allusion to Edo era poetry? Man…

Katsumi Minato | Ultraman R/B

[coloredinrosso]

I guess I could ask about... what are your dreams? Like, what kind of future goal are you pursuing towards?

[buson]

A future...? I just wanna make money an' live comfortably.

Makin' a name for myself'd be pretty great, but I already kinda have.

Kitagawa Yusuke | Persona 5

[artislife]

How do I "fllirt"?

[empression]

I... think that entirely depends on the subject, Yusuke-kun.

Robert Muldoon | Jurassic Park | OTA

[allbedestroyed]

What is the biggest misconception people have about you?

eden verbena ( non wol oc ) » ffxiv

[maynight]

( info is here )

Would you ever turn a blind eye to someone in need? If so, what makes you come to that conclusion?

[dreaminghost]

It depends on the context, normally I tend to be whimsical in my desires and wants although I'm still at my core willing to shove someone in the right direction.

[ Since she herself had plenty happen in life. ]
