Statesman (yeah, I know the Dev left.. but the hero is still there right?)

1. What is your favorite word?
Patriotism! A word that is sadly lacking these days if you ask me.

2. What is your least favorite word?
Communism. Dang, I miss the Cold War.

3. What turns you on?
Marilyn Monroe wrapped in the American Flag... what?! NO! I mean Mom's Apple Pie.. yeah.. that's what I meant! Can we edit this tape?!

4. What turns you off?
Brezhnev's eyebrows. >shudder< Or maybe Gorbachev's map of Australia on his forehead.

5. What sound or noise do you love?
The American Anthem... the sound of the flag flapping in the wind... the screams of Miss Liberty when I made her see fireworks on that one fourth of July... wait! Stop tape! Are you SURE about that editing thing?!

6. What sound or noise do you hate?
Right now? The sound of that danged tape machine.

7. What is your favorite curse word?
Good Americans don't curse. Unless you're talking about fascists... those f**king b****rds..

8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
American Soldier. Rifle in one hand and American Flag in the other!

Travel Agent... why anyone would want to leave the U.S.A. in the first place baffles me.

10. If heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
"No, no... it was never based on RELIGION... it's all about your political form of government! And representative democracy won by a landslide!"

My mind wanders so often you've probably seen its picture on milk cartons. - Me... the first person version of the third person Steelclaw

Synapse (Mwa-ha ha haaaaaa...)

1. What is your favorite word?
"Synapse"... actually it's "SYYYYNAAAAAPSSEE!!!"... screamed in anger and frustration the way Countess Crey does every time I run by and snap her bra strap at mach 2

2. What is your least favorite word?
"Already?!" Spoken in tones of disbelief or condescension by various ladies who have graced my bed.

3. What turns you on?
Static Electricity... no joke... It must react with my electric powers somehow.. it's gotten so bad I have to be real careful not to drag my feet on carpetting... Who's bright idea was it to make super suits out of spandex anyway?!

4. What turns you off?
Women who want to talk afterwards... mostly because it's my performance they always seem to want to talk about.

5. What sound or noise do you love?
Countess Crey's screams of outrage... I swear.. every time I hear it I can't stop smiling for a week or so afterwards.

6. What sound or noise do you hate?
Well... I'm not sure what it is exactly.. but sometimes after a lady friend and I spend some time in bed.. they sneak off to the bathroom.. I don't mind that so much.. but the buzzing sound that comes from behind the door always keeps me from going to sleep.

7. What is your favorite curse word?
All of 'em... when you have superspeed you can say all the swear words in one long sentence and have it come out sounding exactly like a censor's bleep. It seems appropriate somehow.

8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
Gigilo. 90 customers per hour... I'd be RAKING in the cash!

Lab Rat. Been there. Done that. Bought the tee shirt.

Sister Psyche

1. What is your favorite word?
"Walls"... When you have the ability to hear everyone's thoughts on the entire planet... all at once... yes... Walls is a VERY nice word.

2. What is your least favorite word?
"Swan"... for some reason every time it pops up in my husband's thoughts it always sets my teeth on edge.

3. What turns you on?
Manticore's latest arrow head attachment... aaaaand how he introduced me to it... I should have suspected something when he somehow knew there was a quarter at my feet to bend over and pick up when he was 200 feet away.

4. What turns you off?
Short people... Oh wait... I was KIDDING! Seriously honey it was a joke... oh don't go stomp off in a huff again!

6. What sound or noise do you hate?
The sound of thoughts in the mind of a person who is absolutely sure they are right... about everything.

7. What is your favorite curse word?
Curse words take on a different meaning when you are hearing them psychically. Not only do you "hear" them.. you also taste the emotions behind them... smell the corruption of spirit they invoke... see the thoughts and dark fantasies spawned by their echoes.. Asking me what my favorite curse word is is similar to asking which animal's dung you'd most like to have as a flavor of ice cream.

8. What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
Astronaut... maybe if I get far enough away from the planet I won't be able to hear everyone anymore.

9. What profession would you not like to participate in?
Therapist... People don't really want to know what's going on in their own minds.

10. If heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
Nothing. Absolutely nothing. I'd rather he just smile at me.

That's enough for now.. I don't want this to go from amusing to annoying.. although it probably already has. If you want to hear more let me know.. otherwise I'll just let other people get a word (or two) in edge-wise.
