Dana Terrace — Mirage

Dream questionnaire

1- The character who touched you the most?

I hope this doesn't sound weird, but it's "Link" from Legend of Zelda. This poor boy has a hard life! Even though he does his best and saves the world from Ganon, he must perpetually reincarnate as the exact same person and go through the same trials. For eternity! Exhausting, right? I feel sorry for this character.

2- The character that scared you the most?

Tough question! There are so many bad guys. But right now, My Champion is Catch 22. They are either too focused on how to move up the hierarchy or too stupid to realize that their subordinates are suffering from their inability to communicate properly. It’s terrifying because we still see things like this every day!

3- The character you would most like to meet?

I'm not sure I want to meet a fictional character. No, wait, I take back what I said, I want to meet a real Pikachu!

4- The character you would like to reincarnate as (^_^)?

I would like to be reincarnated as a Pokémon (^_^). It's been my dream since I was 8 years old.

5- The world you would like to live in?

I guess I already have this question. The world of Pokémon!

6- The world you wouldn't want to live in?

Oh yes. I guess I wouldn't want to live in the world of Dune. I love water and being hydrated. No giant worms for me, no thanks!

7- What role would you like to play in a work of fiction?

I'm sure that at the age of 13, I would have answered something like a warrior in Final Fantasy but today, more like someone quiet at home (^_^). I'm way too lazy and selfish to do something like save the world.

8- Your earliest memory of fiction?

What I remember most is the world of Mario 64. It was our first game on the Nintendo 64, and I spent hours watching my brother play. But I have to say that I'm quite familiar with the worlds of Pokemon and Skyrim too (^_^).

9- Your favorite word?

My favorite word? Oh, I don't know. Sleep ! Yes, right now, my favorite word is: Sleep! I am very tired.

10- Music you would like to listen to now?

No music! I think silence is underestimated. I would like to be on a deserted beach and listen to the waves. Original English version:
