Of Montreal

[Montreal]

Ask away, any question, I will be completely honest.

[frank]

Where were you when Asuka decided to come pay us a visit?

that isn't a criticism, just a question. :swe:

[Montreal]

It's not really my call, also, I can't do anything about asuka except delete posts, so i'm mostly just deleting everything said and replied to regarding Asuka.

[Mac]

(sorry, I forgot about the AI forum settings, it's been dealt with)

Question: What screen area is your desktop? (random)

o.o

[Montreal]

1152x864, but I usually end up using 1024x768 wallpapers.

[Keated]

Are you gonna tell us more about yourself, or do we have to guess? ;)

[Montreal]

I think that question should be looked at in retrospect, do we always have to guess about YOU, keated? ;)

[frank]

Do you think you'll ever "out-grow" anime?

[Montreal]

The truth is, I'm so fickle, I actually might. I have gone through long phases where I didn't watch anime for a few months, but I think it's something I have a love and passion for...you never know, but I don't think I will.

[frank]

Are you motivated as a graphic artist more than anything else?

I know you've got lots and lots of talents and skills, but you seem to return to the world of graphics. ^^

[Montreal]

I'd say my three main passions/goals are:

1. Graphic Design
2. Photography
3. Writing


my dream is to be a professional photographer, but i think i understand where my true talent lies; that is graphic design. even on a bad day i can come up with something satisfactory to others, even if i don't think it is. graphic design is something that comes to me easily, and it tends to get the job done creativity wise. i'd say i have a future in graphic design more than the other 3.

[frank]

Have you tried writing or photography professionally?

If not, why?

If yes, what and when? ^^

[Montreal]

My mother wants to self publish writing works of mine, and i want to include photography in the book. I don't know when we will do this, but I plan on doing it someday.
I don't know if this would count as 'professional' but I am doing my first photoshoot with a band on Tuesday.

[frank]

It counts. ^^ Professionalism really has to do more with quality and attitude than payment.

Same question as to Sene. How much time do you spend daily on anime--including everything, even forums?

[Sarah]

I don't know if I can ask a question before you have a chance to reply to the last poster? I think I just asked my question. :?

[Montreal]

You can, the user just needs to address both questions in their reply.

frank, i'd say on the average day when i'm online i'd spend around 2+ hours on forums. i don't actually sit and watch anime very often.

[frank]

Then, to be as knowledgeable as you are, I think you absorb materal very quickly and probably on different levels. ^^

Which do you prefer: black and white photography or color, and stills or motion?

Excluding all references to animation.

[Montreal]

Ahh i love both.
If i had to choose i think i'd choose color.
and i like stills, but in action poses.
not actually moving, but giving the impression.

[frank]

Yes, I uhnderstand. I'm grounded in photograhy, also. ^^

But don't you find B/W more challenging--especially becasue of lighting difficulties and achieving perspectives?

[Montreal]

i wouldn't say that i find black and white to be more challenging...it's definitely a different type of image, you have to treat it differently than color. but what i love about color are the levels and depth, you can delve into almost any side of the spectrum you wish, make it vibrant or washed out, it's always a surprise.

[frank]

I have to agree with all of that. I guess b/w has always retained a challenge and fascination for me because, just like with my art, my first learning experiences were with b/w. ^^

What do you do to relieve the stress in your life, not including any kind of artwork? Any kind! Please?

[Montreal]

if i'm really frustrated i will take out a piece of paper and write **** very large, and then all sorts of insults relating to the issue...then i fold it up and either burn it or rip it apart. also, i sleep, scream, and call jericho.

[frank]

Why did you take your LIS badge off your sig?

[Montreal]

I ended up generally disliking it, which i tend to do with a lot of the things i make. i just found it easier to have a userbar with mugen on it.

[frank]

Yeah. I just went and looked at it, and it doesn't seem to fit now.

Can you create a banner/badge from any image as long as it's .png?

[Montreal]

technically, i can create one from any image whatsoever.
png's are so much easier because the background is already cut out, which takes out about 70% of the work.

[frank]

if i'm really frustrated i will take out a piece of paper and write F*** very large, and then all sorts of insults relating to the issue...then i fold it up and either burn it or rip it apart. also, i sleep, scream, and call jericho.

Did you know that's a form of magick?

Do you feel better after doing any or all of those things?

Which ones?

I'll stop now. ^_~

[Montreal]

i didn't know that.

i feel better after all of those things, but i think i feel the most better after writing the words.

Edited in: by me: :wink:

[frank]

Have you skipped any grades?

Where did you receive your art training?

Do you have a school in mind for under-graduate studies?

[Montreal]

i've never skipped any grades. the only subject i excel in is english and language arts, i'm very much behind on the science and math dept.

i have never had any type of training.


for college i plan on going to ITT tech for graphic design. i don't really have anything else planned.

[Takai]

Do you have any preferred anime genres? (mecha, school, sports etc)

[frank]

and I notice you have a new avvie/siggy combo. The avie looks like one Zelda used or Sera? Close--maybe just the texture and flow.

Are there some things you really hate to do? Like what? I mean really dislike (better word) but not including mundane things like trash, dishes etc. @_@

I think I just confused myself. LOL

[Montreal]

Takai :
I really don't have a specific genre attraction...but for some reason, I've never really enjoyed the plot for Mecha anime. I know i should give some a chance, like gundam and all that...i jusst don't enjoy it. I tried to like Eureka 7, but i ended up not liking it at all. My tastes depend on the series more than the genre..

frank :
I really don't like to teach people how to do things. I get very frustrated. Also, I don't like to explain myself to others. As in, religion, beliefs, etc.

[Takai]

Would you buy a medicine seller (Mononoke/Ayakashi) action figure if there was one for sale? xD

[frank]

Are there color combinations that you prefer over others and is there a style of art work that you like more than others?

which and why?

(without making you feel like you're explaining yourself. lol)

[Montreal]

Takai: YES. i love mononoke dearly.


frank:
i like blue and yellow a whole lot..also black and white, pastel blue and green, pastel pink and yellow...and rainbow.

[Takai]

There were rumors among Bakeneko/Mononoke fans that the medicine seller is yet another portrayal of the famous onmyôji Abe no Seimei; what's your opinion on that? Do you think this may be true, or do you think he is a completely unique individual with no relation to any historical figure?

[Montreal]

I don't know much about japanese history, but i could say it is highly likely. many characters have been based on historical figures/pop culture figures...

[The Guiltiest Gear]

how did your yearbook job go?

[Montreal]

it ended up going very smoothly...everyone liked it so i didn't have to do much revision...
here are some pictures of it:

http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/8850 ... gerrh7.jpg (http://img153.imageshack.us/img153/8850/leftbiggerrh7.jpg)
http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/8383 ... gerks3.jpg (http://img155.imageshack.us/img155/8383/rightbiggerks3.jpg)

there are many more, but these are just examples. it's basically a tree going through growth.

[Melee]

how come you're so cool?



what do you like the most about the kind of art that you do?

[Takai]

Why do you like Mugen so much? (without going into spoilers as I haven't seen SC lol)

[Montreal]

Melee: hahaha. how come i'm so cool?
because of influential people in my life. also, the type of art i enjoy is graphic because everything i've done is self-taught..

Takai: Mugen...hmm. i wouldn't say he is my abo****e favorite, that place is held by Vash the stampede. but i like mugen because he's just a dirty guy, badass to the core, and has hardly any morals.

[Takai]

Sounds like a good enough reason to me xD
What about our beloved medicine seller then? Why do you like him? ;D

[frank]

just to let you know: the pics of project are good! Esp. the blue one. ^^

Sorry to go off-topic, there ^^

If you were a Tarot card, which one would you be?

[The Guiltiest Gear]

whats your favorite snack?

[Montreal]

frank:
by default, i must say The High Priestess, since that is the card of my birthday. here are the characteristics:

* Intuition ----- Nonaction ----- Mystery ----- Calmness ----- Silence

* Inner voice ----- Deep understanding ----- Discretion ----- Sensitivity

* Distance ----- Stability ----- Wisdom ----- Unconscious knowledge

* Patience ----- Looking inward ----- Contemplation ----- Subjective mind

GG:
if you mean midnight snack, it varies. usually i enjoy cereal at night.

[frank]

Why by default?

And how do you associate that card with your birthday?

[Melee]

Did you have a tree fort when you were little?

[Montreal]

frank: by default because it is the card of my birthday, i have an astrological guide to birthdays and it gives the card best matching the sign and date you are born on.



melee: no, i can't say that i did.

[silence]

do you like me?!?!? lol
just kidding, you on't have to answer that ^^;;


when did you know you wanted to be so awesume at art or graphics. . . or. . .
sorry what is it called? t-t

[The Guiltiest Gear]

what an odd mid night snack.

whats your zodiac,and do you believe it suits you?

[frank]

You seem to have gone into a kind of narrative free verse. At least as far as structure.

Do you like that better than "traditionzl" free verse?

[Montreal]

Mel: of course i like you!

GG: my chinese zodiac is the monkey, and i've never really looked into it.

frank: i've sort of adopted the narrative prose as my 'style'. i enjoy it very much. i can express myself much easier.

[frank]

Many people can in narrative prose style. Like Whitman and Sandberg, etc.

do you deliberately set out with a goal in mind or do you let your writing take you as it will? ^^

[Montreal]

usually, a line or a phrase will be in my head when i begin, but i usually have to feel like writing to write something i deem worthy. it all sort of flows out at once, i barely edit anything after i get into it.

[frank]

Why can't you be older?

I mean, physically--sort of. Like in years?

I mean, do you even have a clue of what I don't know what I'm talking about....? :?

[Montreal]

you know what, frank?
i ask myself that question every day.
why can't i be older? the old soul is cursed to live within this young body.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

well itll get there eventually ^^;

Why are you using that odd avatar lol

and is it FLCL,looks FLCLish

[Montreal]

it's haruko from the FLCL ending. i always loved that part, so i found an icon of it and am using it now.

[frank]

There's no problem with a young body, or an old soul--just seems like some inequities are born of the Devil and even God, Himself, can't make them right.

Do you know how much I miss you?

[Sarah]

Aren't you ever embarrassed by some of frank's questions? I am.

[Montreal]

frank - yes i miss you too. i'm so unreliable about messaging and getting online and all that...


sarah - they haven't embarrassed me yet.

[Takai]

Who do you like more in FLCL -- Haruko or Mamimi?

[Montreal]

Mamimi, definitely. i can relate to her. she is my favorite female character of all time.

[Takai]

whee~ she's my 2nd favorite of all time <3

Have you seen Kino no Tabi / Kino's Travels?

[The Guiltiest Gear]

on average how long do you stay in the bathroom making yourself pretty in the morning? lol

[Kharmy]

To Montry-Koko-Mello-chan: "Are you behaving yourself and staying out of trouble 8) ?"

[Montreal]

- Takai: no, i have never heard of it. what is it about?

- GG: it depends. to be honest, for school, i couldn't care less. so about 10 minutes. but if i'm actually doing something....with my friends or whomever, 30+.

- Kharmy: well..i think you know this now, i'm talking to you on msn right now lol

[Takai]

it's about Kino who travels the world (on a talking motorbike). and basically every episode is a visit to a different place. and this is not the ordinary world; Kino visits all kinds of bizarre countries with strange traditions and stuff. it's only 13 episodes and for some reason i thought you'd like it~ it's very interesting~ ^^

Do you like this kind of 'traveling' genre? I always seem to be attracted to a plot where a main character travels places and stuff o.o

[frank]

Were the piccies of you that you put up, showing very little or very much time "making up?" You have beautiful features, you know. soft and graceful. "shut up!, frank!!" :oops:

[Montreal]

frank - also, that depends. but usually, yes, i am 'made up'


takai - well...i love series like rurouni kenshin, trigun, and cowboy bebop. and i'd have to say that a large element of all of those is travel..so yes...i'd say i like it.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

do you like to swim?

[frank]

Do you like to dance?

What kind?

[Montreal]

gg - actually no, i really really really hate swimming.


frank - i definitely dance like an idiot but i love to dance....at concerts. i dance like no one's business.

[frank]

Did you notice it's been 6 days since anyone posted in your thread, including me? Sorry :(

[Montreal]

um sort of, but it's okay, we're all busy!

[Takai]

are you going to go into graphic design in college?

[Montreal]

this is my general goal. but i just got a very professional camera, so maybe i'll go into photography. but graphic design will bring food to the table, so i'll probably go with that.

[Takai]

Do you know that graphic design is actually more about drawing and making designs with your own illustrations? o_O
at least it is in my school. i had a completely different idea on it. so i switched because i want to do actual design, not drawings (not professionally at least). Just an advice - ask in detail what graphic design involves at whatever school you will go to; i had to retake a semester because of my lack of knowledge ^^;;

[Montreal]

graphic design can mean a wide variety of subjects, which is why i like it so much. i plan on going into graphic design for advertisement...

by that i mean designing ads for companies, brochures, book covers, dvd covers, movie posters...etc

my dream is to design movie posters and book covers.

[Takai]

yeah that's what i like too. but at my school all the designs have to be compiled of our own drawings and stuff; so i'd have to take a lot of actual drawing courses (like life drawing, drawing and perspective etc), and that kind of discouraged me since i don't want to draw professionally. and we actually have a separate major for advertising. but yeah, i think the majors are categorized differently in different colleges.

for how long have you worked with photoshop and other image editing software?

[Montreal]

i've been teaching myself how to use photoshop since i was about 11 years old.

it was available to me because my mom used to work for a newspaper and journalism thing, so i just basically messed with it until i found out i could actually make things. it was actually forums that have gotten me into it and helped me grow in it, the first thing i ever designed was a signature.
and signatures and avatars are still the main things i design, though now i do much more for schools.

[Takai]

it was about the same with me, forums and signatures and stuff. though i was 14-ish when i first used any editing software.

what other software do you use?

[Montreal]

i am mainly photoshop...though i can easily understand any basic editing program because of the higher level of difficulty photoshop can ask for. i've used paint shop pro before, but i've stuck with photoshop 5.0, cs, cs2, and cs3 for the past 5 years.

[Rain_Pixie]

hehe >3

What would be the ultimate birthday present for you? (I'm not getting you one, I promise. I'm just curious.^^)

[The Guiltiest Gear]

Did you have a nice birthday?

What kind of Cake?

why did i capitalize the c in cake?

and because takai doesnt know how do girls maintain thier center of gravity in high heels?

[Montreal]

Rain pixie -
my ultimate gift would be the gift of freedom with my best friend and cousin. i just want to be able to b e honest and open and just..FREE!
that's all i want.
maybe just a day.


GG -
1. my birthday was very very nice
2. my mom got me a gigantic cake which was half white/half vanilla with whipped cream frosting
3. because cake is always Best.
4. in MY experience, heels are all about practice. though sometimes you still fall. you have to basically roll step in them.

[Takai]

well excuse me for not being knowledgeable lol

did you ever dye your hair some crazy bright color?

[Montreal]

i've been dyeing my hair for approx. 4 years now
the first time i dyed it, it turned out purply.

[Takai]

what's your natural hair color?

[Montreal]

i haven't dyed my hair in a solid few months..so it's a brownish blonde, apparently. it was nearly white when i started dyeing it.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

apparently?,Do you dye it that often lol?

[Montreal]

to be honest since lately i haven't seen my natural color in a long time. i dyed it every 2 months mostly...a vast array of colors, too. from blonde to black.

[frank]

When are you going to change your name again?

What's going to be your new name, or do you know yet?

[Montreal]

i've been pretty happy with montreal...
i can't really think of anything else i'd like to change it to.

[frank]

Montreal fits--for some reason. I like Dream~chan, for me. ^^

Have you seen the comment I left on your new poem?

[Montreal]

yes i did...and i really appreciate it. i love to read your comments..


did you notice that it was written by a pair?

[frank]

No I didn't. Or if I did, it didn't sink in. I'll go back and check it again. I read your works more than once, anyway.

Have you been alright? I haven't seen you posting much.

[Montreal]

yes, i've been fine. i just sort of lurk, lately. i never really have anything to say.

[frank]

good. I mean lurking is good. Being quiet is good too.

D0 you think I'm naughty?

do you think we should start a poll? XD

[Takai]

I noticed you're reading Koi Kaze. Have you seen the anime? Isn't this story absolutely beautiful and touching? ;_;

[Montreal]

frank - yes, i definitely think you are naughty.

takai - the story absolutely touched my heart. simple beauty. not even the love...the realism in it. the way that they showed that it WAS an issue. it was a problem, to them. it hurt them. seeing that in some of the manga panels made me cry.

[frank]

Heh, heh, heh :twisted: Well, who woulda thought....? No need to take a poll, then. Verdict seems to be in.

Totally voluntary question. the answer that is. lol

Are you naughty?

[Montreal]

hmmm...

i think it would be a mixture of naughty and nice.

[Takai]

*hugs* I'm so happy to find someone who thinks of Koi Kaze as something beautiful, not something sick or wrong~

Have you read/seen 'I My Me! Strawberry Eggs' by any chance? It has quite an interesting romantic approach too.

[Montreal]

i have heard of it, seen pictures, but never watched. what is it about?




and yes, i find that painful love beautiful. i guess that's why i like yaoi sometimes...or incest, or shota, because it is real. it can show that people can love, but it's not always sugar sweet and easy. there are real problems.

[Takai]

Exactly! We can't decide who to love after all, love just happens. Even if it's against some morals, it really isn't something people can control =/

Strawberry Eggs is about a guy Hibiki who had to dress as a female in order to get a job as a teacher (he desperately needed a job). And he falls in love with the girl in his class, but tries to keep it a secret. The girl likes him too, except she doesn't know Hibiki is a man. It's pretty complicated. I thought it was a very touching story. It's only 13 episodes, maybe you will like it.

Have you read/seen any good shota? o.o The only one i really heard of was Boku no Pico, and hentai is one thing i definitely stay away from ^^;

[Montreal]

i meant shotacon, which is what i would consider loveless to be....and that's one of my favorites because there are deep rifts and issues in that story between ritsuka and soubi. and i was into akuroku from kingdom hearts because roxas was about 15 and axel was in his early or middle twenties, i think.

[Takai]

Hm, I never really considered Loveless to be shota ^^;
Isn't shotacon usually more of a sexual relationship between an underage and an adult?
I didn't think there was anything really -adult- in Loveless. And Soubi did say that he wouldn't get excited for a child. Maybe he is in denial >.>
I think Loveless is probably one of the most complicated romance stories ever. And definitely one of my most favorites, if not -the- most favorite.

[Montreal]

from...personal experience, and study and looking into relationships like that...
older men can have restraint towards younger ones, but they have needs and i think that's something that soubi had major issues with. to take someones innocence that early, when that is what YOU want and maybe what they ask for, but not what they'll want in the long run? i think he struggled with his head and heart.

[Takai]

I see what you mean. You're right I think. *sigh* I love Soubi for all that, I really do. To be able to shut off his own will completely because of love.. his love towards Ritsuka is just so admirable.

What are some of your favorite scenes in Loveless? I've read volumes 1-7.

[Montreal]

ahh. i went searching through the places where i used to read it online, and they've taken it off because it got licensed i suppose. but one of the scenes that stands out in my head was when ritsuka went to the amusement park without soubi but spent the entire time looking for him or thinking about him...it showed, to me, that even though he acts like he hates the love and attention soubi gives, he craves it in an almost childish way.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

have you ever wanted to drop kick someone?

why?

[Montreal]

i've wanted to do more than dropkick a few people.
i've thought about going against my morals and KILLING a few people. lol

[frank]

Will you design special little artwork thingie icons for LIS. Sort of like for awards for points?

[Montreal]

uh....
well, maybe...i'm having a hard time finding time to make banners for the site itself. plus i'm having to manipulate photos from a photoshoot and etc. you'll have to pm me and go into detail about what you mean

[The Guiltiest Gear]

am i slow or did you change your sig recently?

[Montreal]

yes, i did. a couple of days ago, lol

[The Guiltiest Gear]

least im not going crazier lol

Are you takai's sensei in photoshopage? :shock:

[Montreal]

um, i don't think so? lol. i teach people how to do general things with it irl, though.

[Gundam]

How many books can your ready in a week?

[Takai]

XD

what's your favorite juice flavor?

[Montreal]

Gundam-

It honestly depends on what i do during the week. sometimes i just sit at home a lot, so i read really often. but....like this week and the past few, i'm barely home, so i barely read. it varies. hahaha


Takai-

Grape! i love grape, peach...etc. Apple always makes my stomach hurt

[Gundam]

What would be your greatest vacation?

[Montreal]

elsewhere? none, really...i haven't had an amazing one. next summer if my friends can go to SC with me...that will be AMAZING.



but, staying home, this summer has been the best one yet.

[Takai]

Why do you like Squall?

[Montreal]

i almost like him because he's a very unsung hero. he didn't ask to have to save everyone, but he does it silently. he has an interesting look, past, and voice. it's not the 'emo' factor, for me...i just think he's a well developed character.

[Takai]

^^

What's your favorite city/place in the world of FF8? *randomness*

[Montreal]

man, it's been awhile since i played...i think the gardens are absolutely beautiful...

[Takai]

I loved Esthar. As much as I kept getting lost there, I loved that place and always thought how awesome it'd be to live in such a city xD

Did you use the Chocobo World extension when you played?

[Gundam]

What type of car do you want?

[Montreal]

takai - umm.. i really don't know what that is. lol i haven't played in about a year.


gundam - i like anything that runs and will play music...i was really jazzed about a suzuki i was going to get in december, but i don't get it anymore. so...i don't know. i like SUVs and trucks and etc.

[Takai]

how big is your computer screen?
do you use a mouse pad? if so, what do you have on it?

[Montreal]

ummm...it's around....17 inches, maybe?


i USED to have a mousepad. it was chococat, extremely cute, but uncomfortable. eventually the laminated covering of it started to rip, so i just got rid of it all together.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

whats the first thing youd do if you saw some wolves giving each other high fives and rappin?

[frank]

and do you think GG just lost it with that question?

[Montreal]

my mind would immediately go to this:

http://i34.tinypic.com/30vnght.gif

[Kharmy]

Can Monty-chan speak spanish? :mrgreen:

[Montreal]

yes, she can, a little...

[Kharmy]

Does anybody in your inner circle listen to metal? :twisted:

[Montreal]

yeah, there's some rammstein fans, a little slipknot, just random stuff. i still listen to metal, too, you know...just not as frequently. i'm more of a harder-rock fan than metal though...Tool and A Perfect Circle...

[Brian]

Tater Tots - greasy gastronomic horror, or crunchy culinary delight?

[Montreal]

definitely a crunchy culinary delight.

[Nyuu]

What three websites do you visit the most?

[Montreal]

http://www.myspace.com
http://www.facebook.com
http://www.stumbleupon.com

[Kharmy]

What was your GPA last semester? :scratch:

[Montreal]

i honestly couldn't tell you. maybe a 3.0? something around there. not a spectacular student, but fairy b average.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

how good are u in math?...... >.>

[Montreal]

i honestly don't think there is anybody worse than me.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

i beg to differ

have you ever failed a class?

how many times?

[Montreal]

i think i've failed a midterm, but never a class. having two teachers as parents doesn't allow much room for failure.

[Takai]

are your parents very strict about school then?

[Montreal]

definitely not strict, i wouldn't even say they kept me on a long leash. in real life, i'm pretty boundless. but when it comes to getting a C or lower, they take it upon themselves to cut me off from the world until my grades come up.

[Takai]

@_@ *is not an A-B student* lol

what manga are you currently reading, if any?

[Montreal]

i read all of the chapters of X about a month ago, and i'm collecting a Bleach and Yotsuba as i have the money to buy them. Yotsuba is on hiatus in america though, but it is my top priority.

[Takai]

is Yotsuba from the mangaka of Azumanga or am i confusing titles?

[Montreal]

yeah, it is. did you know his first work was hentai? hehehe.

[Takai]

o___o that is very unexpected XD to go from hentai to something like Azumanga XD (but then again... the epic space opera Terra e is from the mangaka whose every other work is yaoi XDDD)

have you read/watched Earthian? or any other works by Kouga Yun, except Loveless?

[Montreal]

i've only ever seen earthian in a book store once in my life, and i bought it there. I'd like to finish it. it's amazing how much the art style changed for yun kouga throughout the years.

[Kharmy]

What's your favorite type of flower?

[Montreal]

i'm a pretty big fan of white roses, yellow roses, carnations, etc..

[Takai]

what do you like about Ichigo?

[Montreal]

i really don't give ichigo much love...but i think his growth as a person is phenomenal for someone that's 15/16. he's rather funny, too. (and a redhead.) plus he has a great sense of style...though i guess that's kubo tite's choice, not his. hehe

[Takai]

i see xD

so you like red/orange hair on guys the most? 8)

in real life, i like black hair the most.


but the ones in anime/manga tend to be fiery people, with red hair...i think they are either what i relate to or what i would like to be.

[Takai]

wheee black hair for me, real life or not xD
but i like red hair a lot too.

what time did you go to sleep last night? *random*

[Montreal]

i think it was around 3, i was on the internet whining about the end of toonami and the good old days of it.

[Takai]

are you planning to make a Vash banner for acid tech theme? the colors seem to be perfect ;P

[Montreal]

i've been thinking about it. i'll probably get around to making a trigun banner for every theme xD i just haven't had the will to make any banners lately.

[Takai]

same here ;_;

did you like Neuro's voice? :3 how far did you get in the manga?

[Montreal]

i did. and right now i am reading chapter six of neuro....for some reason this is taking a lot longer to read than i expected! i enjoy it, though.

[Brian]

Would you choose to have the ability to read people's minds, if it meant there was a chance for other people to have the ability as well?

[Montreal]

ive thought about it, and decided that there would be no way i could survive reading other people's minds in the way everyone imagines it...it would make my brain explode, plus people think all types of different ways so it'd be hard to understand what they were thinking about. i mostly think in images and i see text and hear a narration of things sometimes...it's hard to explain. i'd rather no one read my mind.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

would you stick your finger in a venus flytrap out of curiousity?

[Montreal]

i'd put a stick in its mouth before i'd put my finger in

[Brian]

What is one hidden quality you have that people don't recognize at first?

[Montreal]

i'm a keen, keeeeen observer. also, i'm often seen as cold, so maybe being really funny/nice.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

how do you feel about takai and me hijacking one of your top 5 threads? :shock:

[Kharmy]

Do you know the Contra code?

lol

[Montreal]

GG: What do you mean?


Kharmy: Nope. :(

[Kharmy]

Have you heard the word? :muahaha

[frank]

How ya doin' Angel ? *hugs*

[Montreal]

i'm doing okay. surviving....having new people enter my life..it's quite fun.

[frank]

uh huh. as long as you're content. ^^

any serious new people?

[Montreal]

i think so. but i guess it'll all depend on time, you know i'm not very lucky in this department.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

GG: What do you mean?


Kharmy: Nope. :(
*points at top 5 anime ops and eds thread* thats what i mean

do you know if you watched the original or newer evangelion?

if you dont know the differences,a good way to tell is whether or not Lilith's legs regenerate the instant unit 00 removes the Lance of Longinus.

[Montreal]

it's the platinum edition, if that helps at all. i'm not really sure.

[Brian]

Pancakes, waffle or french toast?

[Montreal]

Waffle by far.

[Kharmy]

Do you see me as like a big bwother :mrgreen: or like that wise old super senior who hangs out by the quad who knows his way around the system? lol

[Montreal]

Neither, really. i see you more as a friend than anything else.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

are you really comparable to haruhi Suzumiya like Nagi says? :shock:

What's your favorite food?

[Montreal]

ive never watched the show so i'm not sure, but he calls me haruhi all the time lol


i dont really have a favorite, but i do like macaroni and cheese a lot

[frank]

Do you like lasagne?

[Montreal]

not particularly

[Takai]

did you get any farther in Neuro manga?

[Montreal]

nope, sadly. i'm probably going to pick up the anime, though xD

[frank]

What Italian cooking do you like?

[Montreal]

spaghetti, pizza, chicken Parmesan....to name a few. i'll eat almost anything italian

[frank]

Except lasagne?

[Montreal]

i didn't say i won't eat it, it's just not the first thing i grab for.

[Brian]

How about lobster, do you like lobster?

[Montreal]

i hate seafood, but i really dig lobster. it has such a great taste.

[Brian]

Do you put marshmallows in your hot chocolate?

[Montreal]

for some reason we never have marshmallows at my house. only marshmallow creme.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

Let's see...you seem to be online as much as me and takai so~

What do you do during all that time? lol

[Montreal]

i'm always on Msn, lol. i'm usually talking to one person or another, listening to music, surfing the internet. Sometimes I do work for my yearbook but I'm usually not even doing that. xD i wonder where all my time is going.

[Brian]

Do you sing?

[Montreal]

my mom has a very low key christian gospel CD out with her sister. i got none of the singing genes, though.

[Kharmy]

Do you eat veggies often? :mrgreen:

[Brian]

Have you ever seen a 5.25" floppy drive?

[Montreal]

kharmy - i try to~ i love potatoes and lima beans

brian - i'm sure i have, but i can't visualize it in my head

[Brian]

Do chickens sneeze?

[Nyuu]

What is your favorite meal of the day?

[Montreal]

brian - do they have noses?

nyuu - i usually only eat two meals....so one of those meals, probably dinner xD

[Takai]

aren't beaks their noses and mouths? XD

[Montreal]

hmmmm.....i'm not a chicken expert xD

[Brian]

If you won an all-expenses-paid one-week trip to Tokyo, but you could only go by yourself, would you go?

[Montreal]

i would definitely go. ive always dreamed of going.

[Kharmy]

Do I come off as "dad" like? :mrgreen: *gives her a sweater to wear "It's cold outside princess" lol*

[Montreal]

i think you very obviously have paternal instincts. n___n but you'll always be my friend/big bro kharmy first.

[The Guiltiest Gear]

Did you do anything special for the new year?

[Montreal]

I went to a party. lmao. that's about all.

[clover natsume]

whats your favorite art movement? -past or present-

[Montreal]

i'd probably have to say art nouveau is my favorite, i love gustav klimt

[Brian]

Do you ever flirt with someone just to see how they'll react?

[Kharmy]

Have you had any recent occurrences of deja vu?

[Montreal]

Brian - Yes, I have before. I don't do it usually.

Kharmy - Yes, mine usually come in dreams. I had a dream I met someone I haven't gotten to meet yet....so i'm guessing i'll be meeting them soon.

[Kharmy]

If you had to put a label on them, how would you label your clique at school/neighborhood?

[Montreal]

I'm one of the only kids in my neighborhood..

also, at school, my best friends are in college and box_faerie is homeschooled. I'm generally alone.

[Kharmy]

Do you think heavy music is a buzzkill for residents of the 420 area code *cough* <_<? lmao

[Montreal]

Nope, i certainly do not. While people in that area tend to like the softer music, you can really see them mesh with bands like Tool and KSE and things like that. When i'm in that area code i really enjoy almost any type of music. especially bluegrass lol.

[Nyuu]

What is your most treasured possession?

[Montreal]

at this point, right now, i'd say my dog that just passed away last night.

[Kharmy]

at this point, right now, i'd say my dog that just passed away last night.
:cry: I'm sorry Montry-chan

[The Guiltiest Gear]

Do you want a hug? T.T

[Montreal]

always from you, GG! -hug- n_n

[Kharmy]

Can I eat the shortbread cookies in your pantry? :cry:

[Montreal]

yes, of course, i don't like shortbread -snuggle-

[Brian]

What are the puppies' names? I haven't seen that anywhere.

[Montreal]

Izzy and Ivy n_n

[Kharmy]

How are your grades in school, atm? :study:

[Montreal]

i couldn't' tell you. we're only a month into the new semester. i wont get grades until midterm, which should be in a week or two.

[Silver Winchester]

howdy, darlin'! :mrgreen:

here's a question for ya: what's it like in Kansas I mean Kentucky?

why must I always confuse you with Dorothy?! xDDD

[Montreal]

hello my lovely!~

umm, well..it's quiet and pretty. i hate it and love it at the same time. i live in a podunk town but there are some bigger ones. a lot of people ive met fit the mold of 'Kentucky'...but i've also met people here that are out of this world.

[Kharmy]

Would you ever move to New York after college?

[Montreal]

maybe. if i had a very good reason. i do plan on visiting though, probably during the summer after i graduate.

[Brian]

You're at a friend's house far away from the city. A helicopter lands next to the house. When you go outside to look, the pilot calls you over and tells you he thinks he's having a heart attack. The only way to get him to the hospital in time is in the helicopter, which he is in no condition to fly. Would you try to fly the helicopter in order to save his life?

[Montreal]

yeah, i'd try my best.
