Do you like scary books? What's the best/scariest thing you've ever read?
Yes I do. The best scary type book I have ever read is Seize the Night by Dean Koontz. I would really love to have the first book since I picked Seize up with out knowing there was a book before it. The first book is Fear Nothing. I also really wish that Koontz would write the last book Ride the Storm. I am also a HUGE fan of Edgar Alan Poe. I do believe some of my personality was formed by reading Poe lol.

Are you interested in anything in the latest round of Lab auctions on eBay?
I don't really follow the auctions.
What favorite song(s) would you think would translate into a cool or unique scent?
Hmmm. Wow there are so many. Wish you Where Here and Time by Pink Floyd could be very interesting but well yeah Pink Floyd lol. Goldfish-We Come Together could be a fun and energetic scent. Adele-Rolling in the Deep could be a very powerful and deep scent.The Statler Brothers-Flowers on the Wall could be a very fun and quirky scent. Sam Sparro-Black and Gold could be a very deep and meaningful scent. There are quite a few songs on the Cowboy Bebop soundtracks that could make cool scents. Rain could be a very listless melancholic scent. Chicken Bone could be a really odd and fun scent.

Do you like Legos? Especially mini-fig key chains, Lego block keychains, small Lego sets, etc?
Yes legos are cool. I like pixel blocks better though.
Since the previous question about "what would you buy from the Lab if you had unlimited funds, etc" left WAY too much to the imagination with no limitations (my answer was pretty much BUY ALL THE THINGS!), what would you do if you found a $50 bill on the ground and a nagging voice in the back of your mind told you that you HAD to spend it on BPAL or else face Death. Also, say they had free shipping (LOL) so don't factor that in. What would you get? And spend it all! Or as close to $50 as you can get.

Um my personal art style is very eclectic. My only process is think of something then work on it till I feel it is done. My creating is very random and spastic! lol

Dear witchee, how do you feel about lip balm? Favorite style (twist up tube, pot, tube with wand, etc.)? Favorite flavors? Flavors to avoid? Favorite brand? Do you need more right now or are you set? Are you one of those people who could never have enough lip balm even though you have a bowl on your dresser overflowing with them and 10 in your purse and an order for more on the way?
I LOVE lip balm, and I always need more because I lose/misplace them. I prefer twist up tubes. As far as flavors go I love lime, coconut, mint, cinnamon, clove, honey, apple, lavender, rose, cider, kiwi, violet, lemon, grape, cherry. I can't really think of any to avoid.
I prefer natural based balms because they moisturize so much better.

Dear Witch if you wanna get or do art of my OCs let me know through a Ringleader and i will give you more info on them that way so I don't have to make this any more draw out lol. But her is a list an short descriptions: That Man- Friendly night club owner that is WAY smarter and sneaker than he acts. Sam-Modern day detective that styles himself as a noir detective. He is such a lovable wanna be grump. Hesiod- That Mans dad. A greek farmer that is older than he looks (so are his children) and a lot savier than he appears as well. Andromeda- That Mans older sister a responsible, rough and tumble sailor and fisherman that will box your ears as well as listen to your problems.

I love comics. You should see my t shirt drawer and my computer room lol. First things first. I am a DC more than a Marvel fan. That being said I am really pissed at both companies. Marvel has pretty much destroyed everything I loved about their universe growing up and now DC has pretty much done the same. (and yes I know there are quite a few things in the update that are unchanged but quite a bit of what I love is gone). Now ignoring the bad choices made by these companies my favorite DC titles are: Secret Six, JSA, Gotham Sirens, Birds of Prey and random stuff here and there. More importantly my favorite characters are: Alan Scott, Wildcat, Jay Garrick, The Penguin, The Riddler, Two Face, Plastic Man, Bane, Captain Boomerang II, Booster Gold, John Constantine, Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Deadshot, Deathstroke, Scandal Savage, Vandal Savage, Ra's al Ghul, Creeper, Metamorpho, Green Arrow and too many others lol.

I have grown a veggie garden twice but really din't put the amount of work into it that was necessary for many reasons. (i.e. tools and such) A starter garden kit would be amazing. I want to grow veggies of all sorts, what fruits I can, herbs for cooking and that are cool to have, and flowers for the bees, moths, and butterflies. Things that caterpillars feed on would rock.
Do you decorate for Halloween? Is your decorating taste elegant, kitschy and fun, or scary?
I try my best to. I tend toward a little of all of the above lol. I really do like retro Halloween stuff though and cute monster things and elegant candles and lights, and scary stuff for outside. I really need to make a scarecrow or two this year. With pumpkins for heads.
Witchee, do you have any symbols or totems that have special meaning for you?
Anything related to Odin to start.

Yes I indeed do. I play mostly pc games these days though I do still have my PS2, GameCube, NES, SNES, Sega Genesis and a Wii. I am in sore need of games for the NES since they all disappeared. I play (well I need to pick it back up now that cold weather is coming) DCUO, Minecraft, Oblivion, Guitar Hero 2, Rune Factory Frontier, DDRMAX, Katamari Damacy, ANYTHING King of Fighters, Legend of Mana (my favorite game), Ocarina of Time, Animal Crossing, Pikmen 2, old Sonic the Hedgehog games, Gmod, Team Fortress 2.
Do you like any anime?
Yes I do! Hellsing, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Ghost in the Shell SAC, Sailor Moon, Bleach, FLCL, Howl's Moving Castle, Princess Mononoke, Berserk, Fullmetal Alchemist, Excel Saga, Sorcerer Hunters, Bastard!, Vampire Princess Miyu, Ninja Scroll, Vampire Hunter D, Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust. That about sums it up lol though there is still anime I would like to see.
Do you have an E-reader/iPad/something similar that you need a cover/case for?
Nope
how much do you like jewelry? like, if you were to get a shit ton of it during the round, how excited would you be?
I love it. Very. Especially if it was gagged earrings, necklaces or rings.
How would you like to receive some of your Witch's favorite recipes, tailored to your likes/dietary restrictions? And specific wants?
That would rock! Hmm, neat recipes for holiday foods and ethnic foods.
Do you need any boxes to store your smellies in? What would you store in said hypothetical box--imps, bottles, supplies, all of the above?
Yeah my imp box is full now lol. I would like to have a box that I could store both bottles and imps in.
Muppets: yea or nay?
Yay! I miss watching Muppet babies and The Muppet Show. My favorite Muppet is Gonzo just so you know.
Do you have an affinity for Calvin and Hobbes, Peanuts, The Far Side, and other comic strips? If so, which is your favorite?
I LOVE The Far Side. I grew up reading it. My mom and dad had a bunch of compilations and I would love to have some of them.
Favorite Mythological Creature?
I have so many lol. I especially LOVE Tengus though and I also love tanuki, bakus, djinn and the list could go on forever.
Do you like hair things barrettes, headbands, flowers
Yes, no, and yes. I like barrettes that have neat things like skulls, bows, candy, and I love ones that have glitter, sprinkles or other candies in resin ( I also like jewelry like that too).
Expanding on the hair question - does anyone like those flower clips for the hair that are big right now??
Yes they are pretty cool. I would love a poppy one.
