Just a Beat Out of Place

Stole this from conigliomannaro! Leave a comment with a ship and I'll use it to answer the following questions:

who is the big spoon/little spoon
what is their favorite non-sexual activity
who uses all the hot water in the morning
what they order from take out
what is the most trivial thing they fight over
who does most of the cleaning
what has a season pass in their DVR
who controls the netflix queue
who calls up the super/landlord when the heat’s not working
who steals the blankets
who leaves their stuff around
who remembers to buy the milk
who remembers anniversaries

Thing stolen from hiza_chan: There will probably be at least one domestic-y drabble in lieu of an actual answer for some of these

GO GUYS GO.

1. Comment with "Give me liberty, or give me death!"
2. I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can get to know you.
3. Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
4. Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people.


1. An online friend starts to hit on you, ask you out, etc. How do you get him/her to stop?
Aha. Ahahahaha. Um. Typically? If it's creepy and I suddenly find myself not wanting to interact with said online friend AT ALL anymore? I'll just very quietly block them and drop them from my friends list. If it's not creepy/I'd rather keep them as a friend, I'd ask them about it and then politely let them down. If I wasn't interested, that is.

2. You're given the chance to go back to any time, any place. When/where do you pick and why?
Oh jeez. Um. Anywhere in the world before people showed up. Actually, specifically, Virginia before the English landed. Or the Black Hills before anyone showed up. I'd love to see unadulturated landscape.

3. Favorite quote?
Oh god, you keep picking things that I have multiple answers for. Here, let me give you the top ones that I can remember.
"The eternal quest of the human being is to shatter his loneliness." - Norman Cousins
"Not you any more shall be able to foil us, or withhold yourselves from us/ We use you, and do not cast you aside—we plant you permanently within us/ We fathom you not—we love you—there is perfection in you also./ You furnish your parts toward eternity/ Great or small, you furnish your parts toward the soul." Walt Whitman - Crossing the Brooklyn Ferry (Which I prefer by its original title of Sun-Down Poem)
"We love what we love. Reason does not enter into it. In many ways, unwise love is the truest love. Anyone can love a thing because. That’s as easy as putting a penny in your pocket. But to love something despite. To know the flaws and love them too. That is rare and pure and perfect." Kvothe - Wise Man's Fear
"Words are pale shadows of forgotten names. As names have power, words have power. Words can light fires in the minds of men. Words can wring tears from the hardest hearts. There are seven words that will make a person love you. There are ten words that will break a strong man’s will. But a word is nothing but a painting of a fire. A name is the fire itself." Elodin - Name of The Wind
"It was the patient, cut-flower sound of a man who is waiting to die." Narrator - Name of the Wind

Alright, I think I should stop there. Otherwise, we'd be here all day. I'm not joking. At home, I have a document full of quotes. Just be glad it's not here with me right now.


4. The world's about to end and you only have time to play one video game. What do you pick?
Shit. I have to pick ONE? ....Actually, I'd pick Final Fantasy 8. I've never finished it, so the world would never end. ^^ But seriously, either that or Mass Effect 1 or 2

5. Melody or lyrics?
This is a tough one to answer. I play violin, you see, so I believe in the power of music to move people without words (not to mention that I listen to so much music that is in different languages so it's not like I understand most of it). But I also think that lyrics have the ability to punch people straight in the heart and make them BLEED for the song for how true it is.

Case and point, Being Alive from Sondheim's Company. (JFC, I'm serious, go watch it. Particularly Raul Esparza. He does such a fantastic job on it.)
