If you got cursed into having to 1cc an arcade game in order to save your life, what would you pick?
🤔 The only one I can think of off-hand is Haunted Castle though I'm at best a 3cc for that. The only games I can think of that I can 1cc are Mega Man and Sanvein but neither are actual arcade games. The only arcade games I'm really good at are ones that don't have a Clear state...

Imagine you're in a Forbidden Forest situation IRL. After effortlessly dispatching the hordes of bees or whatever, what kind of dance do you do
I would do the dance called "Have a heart attack and die"

why does Lomi have racing stripes? Is he fast
Lore answer: The white stripes are there as a marking of his training as an Animancer.
Design answer: I felt he needed something to make up for his lack of hair

Lolo you have to make a snack, but it can't be high effort, what you making?
I'm pouring a bunch of a mix of caramel and peanut butter M&Ms in my hand and then shoving them in my mouth

If you could make a 100% Orange Juice for any game company, which would you choooooose
Hmm, Success making a new Top Shop with all the franchises under their belt would be fascinating.

Okay then, Ash is a record store clerk in addition to a murder junky. What do they recommend me listen to if I go in? If I ask for the new Depeche mode album to they say it sucks?
I imagine Ash is a prog rock person, so you're going to get recommended some King Crimson and Gentle Giant. They need to keep their front, so they're likely not going to be up front about saying your music taste sucks (they will be thinking it though)

How about... arbitrary OC talky question. What was the general inspiration, process, etc for... let's say, Theran since he's interesting and I dunno a huge amount about him yet
Hmm, Theran originally was meant to be a shapeshifting dragon that would have a humanoid form (that still looked quite draconic and a full dragon form). I gave him the name Theran because there was someone at an old job named Theron, and I connected Theron to Therian and then Theran Pendragon because he was also originally meant to be an author and curator of antiques, who would use his proceeds to fund the gang's activities. He basically came about because I wanted a dragon and this was before Lolo (the character) was a thing so he was the requisite dragon of the group.
His current role in the canon is still that he's involved as the legal advisor for Team Reading Rainbow who does write smutty romance stuff for fun so that part hasn't changed. He's always been a bit of a background character so he never really came up much.

Books time. What's a book you love? Any kind.
Hmm, I have eye and focus issues that make actually sitting down and reading difficult, but I do have a few that I've enjoyed the audiobooks for.
John Hodgman's almanac trilogy: The Areas of My Expertise, More Information Than You Require, That Is All are a pretty fun read.
The Left Hand of Darkness was a very pivotal gender book for me.
Naoki Urasawa's Monster, Black Jack, and Golgo 13 are probably some of my favorite manga.
Predictably Irrational by Dan Ariely was a pretty inspirational book for me as well, because reading that at the end of my college term was pretty influential on how I think about my econ background and how money is the least interesting focus in economics.
I know you asked for a book but shrug.

you know what I wanna know YOU'RE top 5 movies to get to knowlo Lolo. I am reasonably certain we can guess one
Hmm, let's see. 🤔
- RoboCop - This one has to be number 1 because it became a bit of my identity for a bit to be The RoboCop Guy. Probably one of the best blends of action, horror, and comedy you'll see in a movie (Starship Trooper may be a bit more on the extreme of this, but I felt that RoboCop was a more interesting overall movie)
- Heat - If you asked me what one of my favorite aesthetics in film is, it's Michael Mann. Heat's such an incredible piece of film that it is one of the few 2.5 hour long movies I can think of that feels like it actually is worth the run time.
- A Scanner Darkly - I love rotoscoping and I love Phillip K. Dick so Richard Linklater combining both into A Scanner Darkly turns it into probably one of my favorite adaptations of a Phillip K. Dick story.
- Killer Klowns from Outer Space - Sometimes I just like a good dumb fun movie and Killer Klowns from Outer Space is exactly what your brain fills in when you hear the term "Killer Klowns from Outer Space"
- Contact - There's something very poignant about Contact that even though I'll full admit this is a slow burn movie, I think it warrants it completely. Jodie Foster's acting just makes the main character so good that it's hard not to like her even though the other character maybe are not as enjoyable.

Anything you wanna stream but it's not feasible for some reason?
Part of me thinks it would be fun to do more things in VR but it's a massive CPU/GPU draw that it would make a lot of stream elements unusable and also it's kind of hard to see chat.
