Questions

This is a list of weekly questions asked and answered of each character.

1. What is your character's favorite food? Is your character a good cook? What do they cook for themselves, and what do they like having cooked for them?
2. What does your character do when they have downtime? If you'd like, tell a short story about it.
3. ~~What is your character's morning routine like, on a normal day?~~
	1. **Emeric** is used to waking up in unfamiliar places - it's still weird for him to go home to his own apartment every night. So he keeps everything he needs in his bag, which he leaves within reach of wherever he sleeps: water and tea leaves, bread, cheese, fruit, and herbs. When he wakes up he reaches out from under the covers and paws the ground looking for his bag. He makes himself breakfast in bed and usually gets crumbs everywhere. Then he irons out his shirt and slips into his clothes before remembering that he should have saved some water to wash his face. He fumbles around for a faucet or bucket, anything he can use to get clean, but by now he's restless and wants to get out of the house, so he quickly splashes himself with some water and steams it off on his way out the door (probably freaking out anyone else in the building).
	2. **Junebug** doesn't really have a morning routine. She's that person in your circle of friends that either looks like they haven't slept in a week, or sometimes seems to be living in a totally different time zone, or that you don't hear about for 2 weeks straight because they've been catching up on sleep. It used to drive her mom, completely insane when they still lived together (Moriane: "Juniper Minerva Augusta Mason, you better get your act together before I drag you to the fields and work you until you have no choice but to sleep at night.") The only thing she consistantly does when waking up is getting a cup of extremely black coffee, no matter the time of day (or night) and feed Kookie some ginger snaps. Eating breakfast was a foreign thing until Emeric came around.
	3. **Grim** wakes up early in the morning (5am or earlier) and spends anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour meditating. Once she's finished, she makes herself some tea and tends to her plants. Then, if she has some time before the clinic opens, she'll take a stroll through the morning streets of La Vieille. Her path wanders and she takes new streets every morning, until she's walked them all. If she happens to pass a baker's cart, she'll grab a bite to eat. Otherwise she'll either eat breakfast at the Canton or not at all. Finally, she'll wind her way back to the clinic and get started with her day.
