ibonekoenDay 14 - What is a character's biggest regret?
Wow, you guys ask the difficult questions, don’t you? The ones that really make you think. My biggest regret… When you’ve been alive for over one hundred years, you tend to have numerous regrets, both small and large, and it makes choosing the biggest a tad challenging.
Some might think that being turned would be a regret, but it wasn’t really my choice. I’m sure Alessandro would probably say that turning me is one of his biggest regrets, but that’s inconsequential, I guess. Anyway, I don’t really regret becoming a vampire. I’ve seen and experienced too much to ever regret being a vampire. I wouldn’t have met Zander, for one thing, and thinking about missing his company makes me sad.
I could choose not trying harder to convince Amelia to let me turn her as my biggest regret. I wanted to spend my life (or unlife, if you prefer) with her, and I think if I’d gone back to her and talked to her some more, I could’ve gotten her to change her mind. I know that she loved me; I know it with every fiber of my being. Had she not been pregnant, I think I would’ve pressed the issue more, but I didn’t have the right to force her to choose between her unborn child and me. I should’ve visited her sooner; that’s my true regret involving Amelia.
Not getting to play for the Yankees – that’s my biggest regret. I could’ve been the greatest baseball player of all time. I could’ve been bigger than Babe Ruth himself.
I don’t know, what’s a bigger regret – losing the life of your life or losing your life-long dream?
Day 15 – What are a character’s bad habits?
Well, that depends on who you ask. Zander would say that I have an annoying habit of slurping when I’m feeding, but I say that’s just his imagination. Why is he listening to me when I feed anyway? Creep. XD
Ahem.
Yes, all right, I can get a little…enthusiastic about my feeding but I would hardly call it slurping.
I will admit that I have a tendency to leave my nail clippings on the bathroom floor. Old habits are hard to break, especially when you’ve been doing it for eight decades.
He isn’t exactly a patron saint for good habits himself though. He picks his nose when he doesn’t think you’re looking and then wipes it on his pants or a napkin or whatever’s handy.
He sings random snippets of songs too. Luckily we have the same taste in music, so I don’t usually mind, but every once in a while, he’ll catch me in the wrong mood and his singing just grates on my nerves. It’s not that he sounds terrible; it’s just the repetition. He sings the same part over and over and over again until it’s driving into your brain like a little steel spike being hammered in with every. Little. Note.
Okay, I may also have a habit of walking around the house in the nude. I blame that solely on Alessandro and his nudist ideals.
