• Here's questions to help find out which character you'd be in a novel and I'll give you a playlist to listen to
    • funny, passionate best friend
      • You're the hilarious friends who stands up for everyone. You know what's right and what's wrong. You're ready to smack anyone who says anything offensive towards crucial communities in society. You're an advocate for rights and probably say, "eat the rich" multiple times in a day. You're appreciated and loved by your friends and me :) so here's a playlist that reminds me of you <3 -- https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5DCvcYeVKCHuv2stqto2Nb?si=c44f76a30b164726
  • what color are you?
    • orange
      • and icarus said to aphrodite- so this is what i'm for. you have a distant awareness that the day you fall is the day you change. change is so very difficult, isn't it? watching everyone leave? you want the light so desperately, but you fear it. one day it will come for you. one day you will stop mourning the future and start mourning the present, and it will be peaceful.
  • what form of love do you embody?
    • love as tenderness
      • [ love as gentleness after a lifetime of cruelty ] when ocean vuong said "sometimes being offered tenderness feels like the very proof that you've been ruined" and when pablo neruda said "like a jar you housed the infinite tenderness and the infinite oblivion shattered you like a jar" and when anais mitchell wrote "all i've ever known is how to hold my own, and now i wanna hold you, too”
  • answer some questions about love and i'll tell you why you intimidate people
    • you're beautiful
      • maybe it's your energy or maybe it's your style but people can't help but let their eyes linger on you for a few moments longer than they planned. you have an aura about you that has people hesitating to step closer in fear of disturbing it. not that they could, standing beside you probably illuminates them right along with you!
  • chat with me and i'll recommend a book i love to read
    • On Love and Barley by Matsuo Bashō (poetry)
      • his poetry is so transient and simple and profound... it's gorgeous! i really think they're truly masterful—not clever, but wise. poetry that seems uncanny in its casual perfection but rings deep. it's the kind of book that's a companion perfect for carrying around.
  • what romantic book trope are you?
    • fake relationship
      • competitive, driven, hard-working, appearances. you are "lets do this because we have to" and realizing that you wanted to all along. you are head and heart and having no idea which one to listen to because you're terrified of not being right.. but the heart always wins.
  • what do you desperately long for in life (based on words i find pretty)
    • ethereal
      • ethereal - you long for peace of mind. you've spent your life looking over your shoulder and you desire a quiet life where you can rest. you enjoy solitude, but you desire a closeknit group of friends and maybe a lover - a handful of people you can share your life with. you've never liked the clamour and impersonality of hookup culture or the nightlife scene. for you, intimacy is gentle kisses. a hand on the small of the back. warm glances. two hands clasped. intimacy is knowing each other fully and deeply. a quiet kind of love. you long for someone to share this with. you long to retire to a small cottage in the european countryside and spend your days rearing animals and nurturing crops. you long for a quiet life after years of the uncertainty of moderninity.
  • pick some song lyrics and i'll analyse you
    • head in the clouds
      • You are a dreamer, hopelessly lost and always searching for a way to escape reality because you cannot handle the real world. Life without fixation and special interests is your worst nightmare. Sometimes you stay up late and cry because you wish you lived in a world from a book where everything is good and pure and this detachment from reality warps your sense of how to cope in the real world. You are completely dependant on things that are made up and do not exist.
  • what kind of art would someone make about you?
    • poetry
      • you choose your words carefully and your words will be heard. you’re smart as hell. you know it and so does everyone else and you carry yourself with a sort of confidence. you’re a bit of an artist yourself, even if unintentional. you can find beauty in mundanity but you also know when to be a realist. people fall in love with you because you are a confident mystery and they're dying to find out more. you fear that this attraction that people have to you is based purely in curiosity and nothing else.
  • choose idols from groups i stan and i'll guess your sexuality
    • gay
      • idk abt your gender you're just gay (yasss 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈)
  • what color is your aura
    • blue
      • blue is the color of the throat chakra, ruling communication and self-expression. you are the most caring, nurturing and protective personality in the color-spectrum. you want to help and love others as you live by your hearts and emotions. you enjoy calm and tranquil environments, being as you're on the sensitive side. honesty and clarity in communication is very important to you. the lighter the blue of your aura, the more peaceful and positive the energy you project.
  • are you a soldier, a poet, or a king?
    • a king
      • "There will come a ruler Whose brow is laid in thorn Smeared with oil like David's boy" Duty. Strength. Resignation. You were told to do things and you did them. The world is something that was put into your hands and that you must deal with - so you will. You have a rigid back and steady hands, either metaphorically or physically. Is it nature or nurture ? You don't know. You are tired of being steady. You dream of feeling alive. Not that you aren't, but, sometimes, it's hard to remember that there is a heart between your ribs. Your love is where you breathe. Come on, breathe. In. Out. It starts now.
  • which stage of grief are you most connected to?
    • acceptance
      • peace. you are at rest. you are past it. may you rest, and may you rest calmly.
  • where do you fall on the boytoy-trophy husband scale (fr i loved this one 😆)
    • boytoy
      • no words you're basically a trophy husband without the self confidence
  • who do you come home to
    • chaos
      • do you prefer it that way, angel? is this something you're choosing? you don't need to save someone from something horrible for them to love you, i promise you're enough on your own. please take care of yourself. i know it's hard but you deserve someone who cares about you. one day that will be more than just yourself. i need you to hold on until you make it there. please promise me you'll try. i'm so proud of you. i know how difficult it is to always be fighting. you will be safe one day, you will be content and you'll have everything you're waiting for right now. i'm always here if you need anything, okay?
  • Which Berklee building are you? (vi's note: berklee is one of my top school choices and this just popped up ^^)
    • 7 Haviland
      • Your so cute with your little patio! I mean the only classes in you are nerd classes but you're still a little cutie!
  • What sort of sweater would I give you based on your favorite things
    • a well-loved, comfy band hoodie
      • things are possibly a little tough at the moment, and you might feel a little isolated but it will get better. i'd give you an old, oversized hoodie with a faded band logo on the back. why? i think you need some comforting right now, and there is nothing quite so comforting as a hoodie you have found comfort in for years that has withstood the tests of time and tears. things i associate with you: streetlights at dusk, childhood towns, spray paint and courage to keep going.
  • What is your god?
    • your god is the earth itself.
      • you are a child of the universe. the stars smile on you and the breezes whistle by your window only to remind you how you are loved. god to you is a parent and a friend and everything and more. go, my sweet child. do what you know you must. run into the wind and measure the mountains and sing the river. you are the world and the world is you. praise nature and praise your lord. [i of the storm by of monsters and men]
  • what kind of heartbreak are you?
    • healthy
      • and you know, with no small amount of certainty, that you'll never love anyone the same way again. better, maybe, and more, most definitely. there's plenty of time, after all, but never again will it be like that, with such sharp clarity, spilling pretty pink out into the world through your rose-tinted glasses from when you were fifteen and thought that you had stopped time whenever your hands intertwined - but that's okay! you don't regret it, and you would live it all over again, if only for the smile on your past-self's face before it fades.
  • which idol was written by you?
    • song mingi
      • you're a natural romantic. maybe not in the romantic-comedy usual romantic kind, but you yearn for a life with emotion, with just enough sadness to make the good times feel even better (be careful not to let that go far though!). there's nothing wrong with wanting an enchanting story of your own, whatever kind it may be, but remember that if you keep dreaming about the wonders from far away, you won't realize when your own casual beauties bloom.
  • what does your choice of words say about you? (this was a wonderful quiz!)
    • you speak confidently
      • formally, you're a great orator because of your confident presence. informally though, you talk quickly and animatedly and like to play around with words, which sometimes results in you using a word in the completely wrong context. you also probably have a great sense of humor :)
  • what ultra-specific movie genre do you belong in?
    • deep alien/space movie with strong themes about family and choices and what it means to be human
      • ex: interstellar, arrival. intelligent but confusing, you're ~destined~ to make change in the world.
  • what is the truth at the center of your universe?
    • you are loved
      • The warmth of a hug, a soft word, a smile. You step with surety, you have a home in the hearts of those that love you. Love can be a balm, it can be firm ground under your feet. Love can also feel like a burden at times, a weight you must carry. You are strong enough to carry it, but don't be afraid to share the weight, too.
  • which lover are you?
    • the composer
      • To you, love is something created. It is born and it is nurtured, and it is entirely intentional. What could be more beautiful than that? We possess the enigmatic power to create deep, impossible, meaningful bonds with other people. It is not something we should take for granted. We choose to care for each other. We inconvenience ourselves with the sheer enormity of the love we have for others. In your eyes, it is the deliberate nature of love that makes it so beautiful.
