Soda/Drink choice go!
Diet Coke. We are a diet coke household.
Fantastic creatures, you have to make a snack, but it can't be high effort, what are you making?
We will probably put peanut butter on some crackers or somesuch. We tend to keep a lot of snacks of both savory and sweet varieties around but if it needs to be something with some prep we'll do that or maybe like get the crackers and some cheese and meat and do a lunchables-ass thing
What do you listen to when you're working on things throughout the day?
Pretty much always gotta have something on unless we're in one of the rarer states where we like silence. If there's a stream going, or a stream vod from someone we wanna see it's that. This includes putting on the Jeff Gerstmann NES ranking vods on mondays etc. We tend to miss Retro Pals live so those are also popular. If we're in the right kind of mood we'll be obsessed with some song and loop it for like several hours sometimes. Maybe let a playlist go on youtube which also involves a lot of repetition.
What platforms have/had the controllers you most liked to use and most hated to use?
the gamecube came out when we were babby with small hand and felt great. I don't think that would hold up today. But I think the Wii U game pad was beautiful.
As for dislike... well the original Xbox controller came out when we were babby with tiny hand so it was a nightmare, but we only touched that a few times. I think that depending on the game, the DS could be both the best and worst slots. Kid Icarus Uprising required you to subject yourself to incredible pain as a form of penance.
For the kitty, ideal sritches location? Under the chin, sides of the cheeks, on the top, something else?
While those are all good, we have known for a long time my weakness is the back of the neck. Running down the back to the base of the tail also. This would fix me

Thoughts on police procedurals or general mystery stories?
We should read more of them honestly because we always have fun with mysteries. I mean really we've only seen one Columbo episode smh, though we've seen a bunch of beloved Furuhata. Cop stuff is kinda inherently evil but the fiddlyness of them appeals. Portopia is super interesting, Ace Attorney games are beloved for a reason, etc etc etc.
Haven't even read that many actual novels of the type, but we did check out Magpie Murders on a recommendation once and it rules. Plus it's... kinda not about cop stuff? I guess?
Favorite types of music to listen to and if it shifts with the rest of the coven, what are everyone else's tastes?
Our tastes definitely shift a bit. Trinket dislikes harsh noises and will maybe put on something more ambient. We otherwise all have basically pop sensibilities but while I (Mira) will lean catchier and dramatic, July likes things with more sentimental lyrics, Viper goes more up tempo etc. None of that super matters because we'll just get stuck on a single song or small number of them that just hit us correctly and will listen to it on loop for hours and hours until we kinda burn out on it. Youtube's algo is actually good for this. When we played Rock Band, we liked Electric Version so much we got way into a lot of indie rock for a long while and I'm sure if we looked we'd find lots to enjoy but most recently vocaloids hit us real hard so there's a few producers we check out. Rot for Clout probably started that so we can collectively blame Necro.
What do you think your Top 5 movies to get to know you are?
Dang that one's tough since we don't really appreciate or watch many movies. No particular order to these despite the prompt requiring one live with it
Shaun of the Dead probably. We watched that a billion times years and years ago idk if it holds up
Nightmare on Elm Street, possible to substitute with any other film about how the suburbs are the real monster
Char's Counterattack
Wrath of Khan
Fire Dragon, the frankenmovie composed mostly of repurposed shots from Fantasy Mission Force and much like that film, the DVD case pretended it was a Jackie Chan movie even though he's barely in it.
A tit for tat question: What's the Evil Universe of the Coven?
For me (V) I can't decide if it'd be a Shadowmoor elf thing where I become good or if I'd be like the worst kind of insane manfluencer type just much worse. Trinket is obviously a killer robot. And then Mira and July would be Skinny, the worst fate of all
Each of you get your own specialty kind of pizza. What's on them? 👀
Can only really think of them in broad terms.
Mira: Meaty lovers. pepperoni, sausage, bacon, salami, whatever else. Comforting and uncomplicated.
July: Complex and refined. Pineapple, sun-dried tomato, onions, pesto sauce, idk what meats this is hard
Viper: A lot of hot peppers and spicy sauces. Beautifully painful.
Trinket: Dessert pizza. Cream and fruit and some chocolate mousse
Bonus Blackheart: Practical, healthy, and low mess. Cauliflower crust, lots of vegetables, and skim milk cheese.
