I stole this from !

And it'll feature both Masurao and Nebulos X3 Double interviews are always fun!

Hope you enjoy! <3


And one I didn't do yet! X3 Imagine that!


1.) Hello there! Let’s start this off by asking…What’s your name?

Masurao: Masurao Sebes

Nebulos: And my name's Nebulos! I don't have a last name, though.


2.) Ahh, I see! How old are you then?

Masurao: Eleven.

Nebulos: On planet Lumin, I'm two years old, going on three! But in your earth years, I'd be around eight ^^


3.) What color is your hair?

Masurao: *quirks an eyebrow, jerking his head upwards a bit to state the obvious*

Nebulos: *chuckles, ruffling his hair* it's white, as you can see ^^


4.) How about your eye color?

Masurao: *stares with a green piercing and unnerving stare*

Nebulos: *glances at Masurao uncomfortably* Uhh... Heheh... ^^' Well, mine are white, like my hair.


5.) Can you tell us a little bit about where you came from?

Masurao: Egriada.

Nebulos: I'm from planet Lumin. It's real pretty up there. Some of our nights last a lot longer than those of yours here on Earth. Because of that, our species is part nocturnal. *flickers his antennae a bit* But it's never dark there! We actually got three moons, which brighten the place a lot ^^ And the villages are decorated with lanterns and everything. Lots of nature, too! And wide open plains with flowers which shed glowing pollen. It's really beautiful!


6.) Who’re your parents? Do you guys get along well?

Masurao: They are my parents. And yes, we do.

Nebulos: *glances back at Masurao, a little unnerved at his short answers* Uhh... Heh ^^' W-Well, my parents are great people! :3 I love them a lot!


7.) Do you like animals? What’s your favorite one?

Masurao: *quirks an eyebrow*

Nebulos: Oh, of course! Preferably animals who are smaller than me, so they don't mistake me for a treat or something ^^' But they're much fun! And so soft! Kind of like you, Masurao!

Masurao: *stoic expression*


8.) What’s your dream job? (Or: What do you want to be when you grow up?)

Masurao: *closes his eyes serenely* I've already got quite a nice job.

Nebulos: I don't really have a dream job ^^ I'm fine being a Communications Officer and Infiltration Operative! I like it a lot, I wouldn't want to change it!


9.) What’s your current job?

Masurao: *puts a fist to his chest* I am under the Origamian King's service as his daughter's personal bodyguard.

Nebulos: *chuckles* Well, I'm a Communications Officer and Infiltration Operative in the Galactic Kids Next Door!


10.) Do you like sunny weather, or rainy weather?

Masurao: *closes his eyes again, crossing his arms, shrugging lightly* Either is fine.

Nebulos: I agree =] They both have their individual charm! Of course, rain prevents you from playing outside, but nothing beats watching the rain outside while drinking a hot cup of cocoa! Yumm-ee!


11.) Do you have any diseases?

Masurao: *quirks an eyebrow, opening his eyes* No, I don't.

Nebulos: And neither have I, thankfully.


12.) How do you view yourself?

Masurao: ... *lifts another eyebrow*

Nebulos: Oh gosh... Now there's a question... Umm, well, I... I'd like to think I'm kind to other people... *fumbles with his hands shyly* At least I try to be. They sometimes asy I can be a bit naive, though ^^' But I like the way I am, so I'm fine with it C:


13.) Do you have any weird habits? Any at all?

Masurao: Hm. *closes his eyes, tilting his head to the side serenely*

Nebulos: Weird, you say? Hmm... *puts a chin to his hand in thought* Gosh. *puts a hand behind his head, scratching it, while chuckling* Heheh... ^^' I might have. I like sitting on people's head, some might think that's a little weird.


14.) What’re your worst fears?

Masurao: intense stare which reveals absolutely nothing*

Nebulos: Loneliness or abandonment... *antennae dim a bit, looking at the floor* ...And impenetrable, forever-lasting darkness. XP


15.) What would you do if your worst fears came true? (…Or if they were staring you down in the face?

Masurao: *frowning a bit* ...Make sure it gets out of the way.

Nebulos: *glances up at the stoic guard* Well, I... I suppose that'd be the best thing to do ^^ Overcome it! And be the best that you can be! =]

Masurao: *soft nod*


16.) Do you have any super-duper secrets!? Wanna share?

Masurao: *stares for a bit, then closes his eyes and turns his head the other way*

Nebulos: *hands tucked behind his back innocently* Certainly. Which person hasn't? =] *chuckles, blushing a bit*


17.) Which song do you think fits your life--or personality best?

Masurao: *eyebrow-lift*

Nebulos: Gosh... o.o *taps a finger to his chin* I have absolutely no idea! ^^'

(There's quite a few, actually X3)


18.) What do you think you’re living for?

Masurao: *lifts another brow* ...Hm. I suppose to... do the best I can. And try to prevent disappointing people. Live a good life.

Nebulos: Yeah, that sounds good =] Live a happy life ^^ And start a family, when I grow up!


19.) Do you have any--well, you know…Issues? Emotional or psychological?

Masurao: *dispassionate* ...Excuse me?

Nebulos: Issues? o.o Uh, no, I don't think so. I sure hope not... *scratches his head*


20.) Have you ever had a crush before? Have you ever been in love before?

Masurao: *grunts, looking the other way*

Nebulos: Oh! O//O *blushes and brightens his antennae* ...W-well, I, uhh... I suppose I, uhh... Well... *clears his throat awkwardly, fumbling his hands together nervously*


21.) How do you act when you’re around that special someone, hmm? *wink wink, nudge nudge.*

Masurao: *cold, unimpressed stare* I'd rather you not nudge me, if I can be as free.

Nebulos: Uhh, I, uhh... *blushes a bit more, looking at the ground shyly* ...Well, I... We play games together and everything. We always have lots of fun *smiles shyly* I suppose it's... You know... Tingly and everything ^^'


22.) Do you have any special abilities? Would you care to list them for us?

Masurao: *stares for a minute, then closes his eyes and looks the other way* Nothing like levitation or teleportation if that is what you mean. But I can jump rather high. A matured Egriadanian can jump an average of about 10 of your earth meters into the air.

Nebulos: O.O Wow, that's a long way! *looks up, impressed; then turns around again ...What? Oh, yeah! Special abilities! Well, I can glow! ^^ *brightens his antennae* And I can make things glow by touching them C: And control light sources when they're turned on, but not when they're off. And I actualyl also have the ability to dematerialize and rematerialize someplace different! But it's only used in dire life-threatening situations. It's a very energy-consuming thing to do.


23.) Would you like a hug? You look like you could use a hug.

Masurao: *eyebrow lift* ...I am afraid you are mistaken.

Nebulos: I do? o.o But I'm all happy and everything! ^^ Oh well, one more can't hurt! Luminarians like hugs, they're warm =]


24.) Hey, what’s your favorite…Clothing item?

Masurao: *shrugs lightly* I don't particulary mind what I wear. As long as it is decent and suited for the task I currently need to perform.

Nebulos: I don't have any either ^^' I wear my green spacesuit a lot though! Otherwise, I just pick something out of the closet =] My mom sometimes sends me clothes, too!


25.) This quiz is over! What’re you gonna do now?

Masurao: *stands there for a second* . . . *doesn't respond, closes his eyes and turns away, leaving*

Nebulos: Oh, it is? Well, then I suppose I'd best find my friends to see if they'd like to play a game or something! ^^ See ya! *runs off* Hey Masurao, wait up!

Have fun!

Not much to say personally, except that I wish you all to have a Merry Christmas and a Happy Newyear! X3

And starting from today, the contest winners, and will have their three artworks of choice featured on my journal for one month! ^^

During this month, if they wish to change one of these pictures with another, they can tell me and I'll change it X3

Enjoy, everyone! Marvel all over it! <3


* * * * *

I figured not all of my journal entries have to be about the contest XD

But don't forget, my dearests winners! :3 You still get to pick three pictures you'd like to have featured on my journal! I'm waiting for all of you to submit them, so I can put on everyone's up at the same time, so everyone gets the same time-span ^^
If you have a hard time deciding on three pictures, I can help you out and pick them out for you, if you would so wish X3 Just let me know if you'd prefer that n__n

Oh, and THANKS SO MUCH EVERYONE FOR THE BIRTHDAY WISHES!!
You guys are too sweet X3


And now, without further adoooo...

The quiz! X3

Because ages ago, I was tagged by XD


1)Choose one of your own characters.
2) Make them answer the following questions.
3) Then, tag three people.
4) feel free to add some questions of your own.

I'll be introducing Masurao Sebes! His very first character quiz, cheer!
His answers'll be relatively short. He doesn't talk much XD Otherwise, I'll just be answering for him instead


1) What gender are you?

Masurao: *quirks an eyebrow slightly* ...I am male.


2) What is your age?

Masurao: Eleven years old.


3) Do you want a hug?

Masurao: ...No.


4) Do you have any bad habits?

Masurao: ... *quirks another eyebrow, reverting to silence*

Well, I guess it depends on what's considered a bad habit XD He's not very expressive and not easy to talk to. But it will change in time, once you get to know him. So I don't consider that a really bad habit. He also has the habit to stare people down and his gaze is rather unnerving, so it might not always be very pleasant to those being watched XD


5) What is your favorite food?

Oh ho ho! X3 That's his wee little secret! He actually loves to eat and he can eat a ton! Being omnivorous, he'll eat pretty much anything. Bodyguards need their strength!


6) What is your favorite ice cream flavor?

Now there's a question. Either some fruit kind, or some alien spicy kind X3


7) Are you a virgin?

Masurao: ...I am afraid I don't understand your native earth therms. Could you elaborate, please?

Err, not right now, maybe XD; But yes, of course. He's only eleven.


8) Have you killed anyone?

Masurao: Certainly not.


9) Do you hate anyone?

He doesn't. Although he may appear rather distant and not very social, it doesn't mean he doesn't like you ^^ He just won't show it so expressively.


10) Do you have any secrets?

Masurao: ... *closes his eyes, turning his head the other way*

Oh yes. Tons, I'm sure, seeing how he hardly talks about himself at all XD


11) What is your favorite season?

Masurao: *shifts the rod on his back a bit* None. All seasons have their reason to make Egriada what it's like. None jump out to me in particular... *looks up, seeming thoughtful* ...I've always liked spring I suppose... *looks down again* ...But it doesn't matter. They are all nice.


12) Who are your best friends?

Masurao: ... *blank stare*

Haha XD I'd love to hear him say that out loud! <3 Well, he's currently still getting acquainted to most of them, but Tala seems to have less of a hard time to see right through his exterior. I somehow envision he'll get along with Niji, too, eventually


13) What are your hobbies?

Hmm... Practising his skills I suppose X3 Or being in some quiet place, reading a book or just resting and enjoying the silence. That doesn't mean he doesn't like to be around other people, though. He just won't say it out loud X3


14) What is your favorite drink?

Masurao: Water, I suppose. Or Hananin juice.

It's what they drink on Egriada.


15) When is your birthday?

Masurao: Springtime.

Ah, always so mysterious.


16) What age did you die?

Masurao: *raises eyebrows* ...I'm sorry? o__o


17) Are you nice or mean?

Hmm... XD Well, he isn't rude or arrogant. He hardly says anything, so it's hard to show what he's really like. But I can inform you that he really is a kind person, beneath all those layers X3 He'll never insult anyone, and thus doesn't like to be insulted himself. His heart is in the right place.


18) What do you think of your creator?

Masurao: ... *glances at Jas*

Jas: C:

...

Masurao: ...*reverts to silence once again*

Well, that's the best I could hope for XD


19) What is your weakness?

Haha, he'd probably say none XD But he really likes to eat! And his mane is his ticklish spot! :3 But heaven forbid anyone should ever find out!
Oh, and he's quite keen to keep those safe he cares about.


20) How long can you stay under water?

Masurao: *raises his chin, thinking* ...A good few minutes I suppose.


21) What do you do on a regular day basis?

Masurao: Make sure Princess Niji is safe.


22) Do you love someone?

Masurao: *eyes widen, slight blush rising* OO ... ...Hm. *returns to his normal state, closing his eyes* Your questions are getting a bit too personal.

Well, he loves his family of course :3 And his friends.


23) Does that person love you back?

Masurao: *opens his eyes, green eyes glaring*


24) Do you like me?

Masurao: ... *looks away*


25) What do you consider fun in the day time?

Practising his hobbies I suppose ^^


26) At night?

Sleep, of course. But he sometimes stays up late to enjoy the quiet. And to gaze at the stars.


27) Do you like meatballs?

Masurao: *passively* Sure.


28) Do you like Chef Boyardee's meatballs?

Masurao: ... *eyebrow quirk*

Umm, who?


29) Are you gay?

Masurao: ...*quirks another eyebrow*

No, he's not XD


30) Say that you were trapped in a closet with your lover for 2 days straight. What do you do if you start to starve in ONLY A 2-DAY RADIUS?

Masurao: *narrows eyes a bit* I don't have a lover. *makes a throat-noise, crossing his arms and closing his eyes*

Well, if he had, you'd be surprised how much of a gentleman he really is! ;D
...Though he'd probably just kick the door in. He can do that XD


31) Wow, really?

Yeah! ;D


32) What is your place of origin?

Masurao: *unmoving* Planet Egriada.


33) Large or small family?

Small. He lives with his (adoptive) parents and little sister/cousin.


34) Who are your parents?

Masurao: They're my parents.

So very very unrevealing. He does consider his adoptive parents his real parents, seeing how he never knew his biological ones. And he doesn't perceive his situation much different than that of any other kid. He's happy with it, he loves his parents a lot and vice versa.


35) Do you have a phobia?

Ah! X3 Don't touch his loved ones!
And getting fired for doing a bad job. He fears that lot XD


36) Piercing/tattoos?

No, he's certainly not the type.


37) Addicted to anything?

Oh, he likes food a lot! X3 Not that he'd like anyone to find out, of course.


37) Is this quiz over?

Masurao: Apparently it isn't... *gestures a hand down the list. It's still got six questions to go.


38) If you could say one thing to your creator right now, anything at all, what would it be?

Jas: ^o^

Masurao: ... *glances at Jas* ...... *looks out in front of him again, eyebrows slightly raised, looking a wee bit clueless*

Well, that's good enough XD


39) Which of your parents do you look more like?

Ah, interesting topic.
For some reason, I'd like to think he looks like his biological mother a lot. While having enheritted much of is dad's personality X3


40) Say you were locked in a room with the person you hated most for a full day. What would you do to pass the time?

Just keep quiet, probably XD And try to stay zen, while looking for a way out. There's no one he really hates, though.


41) What's the funniest thing that's ever happened to you?

Masurao: ... *blank stare*

Meeting Tala, no doubt XD

Masurao: ...Why was that funny? *raises a brow*

Oh, it's been a blast so far! X3 You jut have a hard time to see fun stuff!

Masurao: ... *silent, having raised an eyebrow still*


42) Are you tired of this quiz?

Masurao: ... *raises one eyebrow slightly*

He might be quiet and distant and all that, but he's rarely very impolite CX


43) If you were to choose who to tag, who would you choose?

Masurao: It hardly matters. I won't force this on anyone... Can I be excused? I still have duties to attend to.

Yes, you can C: *pats his head*


Oh, and in case you couldn't tell, he communicates through his eyebrows a lot XD
Steal if you wish!

Phew... Well, I'll tell you one thing... It was cruddy HARD to decide on these XD; It really, really was. And I'm going to hate to disappoint some people ><; But I suppose that's all in the game... And let's not take it too seriously, it's just a small contest after all.

Firstly, even though I've said it before, I can't stress enough how much I appreciate all of you guys' hard work! I was stunned to see I got 24 entries, it's amazing! OO I'm really, really, really grateful. Thank you so much, I honestly mean it. Make sure you know I absolutely adore all of you guys' pictures, even if you didn't make it in the top three. I really, really do. The fact you guys want to draw my OCs is wonderful! <3

Okay, I guess you'd all like to know which place everyone got, right? X3 Okay!
I'm going to start up with the runner ups (in no specific order). There's four runner-ups, which also shows what I hard time I had deciding on winners

Anyhoo, here we GO!!
