child of the return of interview meme

[ursula]

Maybe this is a good time for some dw friendliness in the form of the interview meme?

Comment below and I'll ask you five questions. Answer them in your own journal, offer to give the first five commenters their own sets of questions, and let the cycle continue!

Thank you! Such good questions. Answered here: https://boxofdelights.dreamwidth.org/408666.html

One of them has a cut tag for animal harm, but I think the cut tags don't show up when you go directly to the post, so avoid it if you do not want to read about any animal harm right now.
