Spill it, do you miss anyone right now, in any way?

‘I miss a lot of people, in various ways. Some are down to an occasional dull ache, and some… I have to try not to think about too much, because it still hurts a lot. I miss Caileen, and Rielle, and, gods help me, Adilah. I miss Darra, and Dela, and Billi, Amari, Amy, Holly, Sines, Sofi, Nys, Myra, Bela, Myra – yes, two different Myras, and, Six help me even more, Artemis. I miss, Luna Larkspur, Luna Lancastir, Gulmont, and Flintlock. Mists! I even miss Tori, and it’s only been four days since I last saw her. Delightful child, for all that she is older and bigger than I am. And, of course, any time I’m not with Mirex or Alex, I miss them.’

RATIONALITY

You like clarity and intelligent simplicity and you get frustrated at messy thinking. This can make you seem unreasonably pushy to some, but it is actually a virtue: you are motivated by a horror at pointless effort and a longing for precision and insight into how things and people work. Your ability to synthesise and bring order is essential in producing thinking which is truly helpful.

ORDERLINESS

You love it when everything is neat and tidy: when there is a proper way of doing things, and you can tick things off the to-do list and know where everything is. So others, at times, are to you unbearably sloppy and messy. And you run into things that can’t be ordered (a child, a partner, a colleague at work) which drives you slightly nuts. But your desire for order is a good one when it is focussed where it is needed and when you’re okay with a bit of mess.

RESILIENCE

You have a tendency, after a setback, to turn your emotions towards restriving. What attracts you is the idea of wiping out a humiliation by resumed action – overcoming weakness, repressing your fear. Because part of your motive is pride, you can sometimes be unwilling to admit weakness or to receive aid. But at heart, tour insistence on coming back and never folding has taught you a valuable pessimism: you know that important journeys are never easy.

SHYNESS

Part of you is gripped by the fear that you’ll launch into something and completely mess it up. The upside of this is wise caution: people are indeed often too rash, whereas you know, by instinct, that holding back can save you. Probably, you feel shame and self-disgust a bit too much. But when you do feel in your element, you act with a wisdom and sensitivity never found in people with thicker skins.

PLAYFULNESS

You are good at seeing what’s funny, at relaxing and finding the pleasure of the moment. Play is random, whimsical, fantasy-driven behaviour which releases internal tension. Because it is detached from some pressures it allows you to act on weirder, perhaps neglected, parts of yourself. The downside is that it is no help in sticking with things that are not much fun but which need to be addressed. So it is well complemented by its opposite, Stoicism.

Would you perform a traitorous act to save someone you love? To save yourself?

‘Well, now. “Traitorous” is such an interesting word. Are we talking something that might be legally treason? Not that I can think of anything there that I’d do that would save someone. I suppose it might depend on where and so whose laws on treason would apply… but even then I can’t think of anything. Plenty of illegal things I’d do, but I just can’t think of anything that’s treason anywhere that … well, that I’d likely do at all, really, but none that would save someone.

‘Now, if we’re talking something that someone might consider to be betraying them… I suppose it’s possible. Not likely, but possible. Mostly only if I don’t realise it’s something they would consider betrayal… though mere embarrassment over living…’
