Is there a hobby or skill that you've always wanted to do but never tried? 

I really want to learn how to do a kick flip on a skateboard

What fictional character do you identify with and why? 

As basic as this response is, Hermione from Harry Potter. I am that person who raises her hand to answer literally every question in class and yes, it annoys me as much as it does everyone else.

Do you have any pets? If so, what kind?

Yes! I have a cat named Bean. I once wrote a sonnet about how much I love her for The Wake. Check it out.

 What's your go-to comfort food?

Ice cream, always.

Where do you feel most at home? 

In my bed, under my weighted blanket, with my cat Bean laying (lying? I never know) on me, ideally reading a book but probably on TikTok.

Do you usually remember your dreams? If so, what was your last dream like, if not what do you want to dream of? 

I don't usually remember my dreams, but I do remember a recurring nightmare I had as a kid in which I was a very shiny fish who was collected and then eaten by a whale. I wouldn't have expected "The Rainbow Fish" (the children's book) to have such a negative impact of my psyche, but here we are.

Name a song that makes you feel ethereal.

The music from the ballet Copellia.
