more than anyone needed to know
1. What does their bedroom look like?
Huge bed with a big fluffy comforter. She has air conditioning in the bedroom specifically since summers get pretty hot. Lots of photos of her and Gloss over the years, a couple of her parents. The bed's all white but the rest of the room is shades of tan with red accents. .
2. Do they have any daily rituals?
Well, exercising - see next question.
3. Do they exercise, and if so, what do they do? How often?
She's exercised every day since her Victory Tour ended, usually twice a day. It's considered shameful in One for a victor to ever be out of shape. Nothing like that creeping knowledge that the Capitol will come back to further ruin you life. All sorts of good motivations.
4. What would they do if they needed to make dinner but the kitchen was busy?
Go to the other kitchen. Two houses in the Victor's Village, bitches!
5. Cleanliness habits (personal, workspace, etc.)
She's not a slob but it's not an museum either.
6. Eating habits and sample daily menu
She generally eats really healthy - not a lot of sweets, which are frowned up at the training academy so she never really developed much of a taste for them. The only time she's really indulged in rich Capito foods was on her victory tour. She doesn't like to eat at Sponsor parties but sometimes doesn't have a choice.
7. Favorite way to waste time and feelings surrounding wasting time
8. Favorite indulgence and feelings surrounding indulging
9. Makeup?
She's not interested in Capitol makeup, but Cashmere wears makeup most days at home in One. The One prep team taught her how to do her makeup for Capitol events so she's capable of looking very pulled together when she needs to. Her preference would be a little bit of mascara and lipgloss but the Capitol likes to load her up.
10. Neuroses? Do they recognize them as such?
To cope with being prostituted, she disassociates from her body when bad things happen - she sometimes doesn't notice when she's been hurt because she's mentally separated from what's happening with her body. She thinks of it as "going away" to a safer mental space. She also has a lot of 'substance' vices when she's in the Capitol, but she's aware of that too. At home in One she rarely drinks and doesn't use drugs.
11. Intellectual pursuits?
12. Favorite book genre?
13. Sexual Orientation? And, regardless of own orientation, thoughts on sexual orientation in general?
Heterosexual but everyone else can do what they want, it's fine. She's slept with other women before but it's never been her choice.
14. Physical abnormalities? (Both visible and not, including injuries/disabilities, long-term illnesses, food-intolerances, etc.)
No visible abnormalities - the Capitol made sure to take care of all of those.
15. Biggest and smallest short term goal?
16. Biggest and smallest long term goal?
17. Preferred mode of dress and rituals surrounding dress
18. Favorite beverage?
19. What do they think about before falling asleep at night?
20. Childhood illnesses? Any interesting stories behind them?
21. Turn-ons? Turn-offs?
Turn-ons: respecting her boundaries (oooh, consent), people who try to see past the exterior she shows the Capitol. She really likes her breasts to get some well-deserved attention. She prefers to be the dominant partner just for personal safety reasons but if it's someone she really, truly trusts then she's happy to let them run the show. If she really likes you , you'll probably get a strip tease because she's fucking awesome at it and knows it. Physically: strong men who she could probably still take in a fight.
Turn-offs: anything where she completely loses control of herself. No bondage here, nope. Basically anything "Capitol" No hairpulling, any sort of pain etc.
22. Given a blank piece of paper, a pencil, and nothing to do, what would happen?
She'd doodle her name. It's a pretty name.
23. How organized are they? How does this organization/disorganization manifest in their everyday life?
Cashmere's disorganized and not particularly tidy. If someone else does the organizing she'll go along with it and try to put stuff where it belong but on her own she is just not that great at putting things away. Capitol stuff always gets tossed aside or left on the floor when she's done with it. The only items she takes extra care with are those that have significance to her
24. Is there one subject of study that they excel at? Or do they even care about intellectual pursuits at all?
25.How do they see themselves 5 years from today?
Same shit, different day. She doesn't see any reason that life will be any different in 5 years unless the Capitol gets bored of her.
26. Do they have any plans for the future? Any contingency plans if things don’t workout?
Don't end up like Satin (dotty and used up)
Quarter Quell plans are to get as far as possible and then go out in a blaze of glory. She and Gloss absolutely have a suicide pact.
27. What is their biggest regret?
Letting Gloss volunteer. Volunteering for her own Games without telling Gloss first. She thinks she made Gloss' life worse and she absolutely made her's worse.
28. Who do they see as their best friend? Their worst enemy?
Best friend: Gloss. Everyone else can go home.
Worst Enemy: Sometimes President Snow, sometimes Katniss and her stupid braid.
29. Reaction to sudden extrapersonal disaster (eg The house is on fire! What do they do?)
30. Reaction to sudden intrapersonal disaster (eg close family member suddenly dies)
Totally loses her shit, we're talking blackout rage & Annie Cresta kind of crazy
31. Most prized possession?
32. Thoughts on material possessions in general?
33. Concept of home and family?
34. Thoughts on privacy? (Are they a private person, or are they prone to ‘TMI’?)
It depends on the person. There are no secrets between her and Gloss - not a lot in the way of modesty either. She sees him as an extension of herself and has learned from experience that it's better to be truthful and open with him instead of keeping secrets.
35. What activities do they enjoy, but consider to be a waste of time?
36. What makes them feel guilty?
Gloss letting people fuck him in hopes that it keeps her alive. Realizing what he must have had to do to get her sponsors.
37. Are they more analytical or more emotional in their decision-making?
The emotional aspect is always there, and emotions do play a big part in decision-making that involves family or friends. The reasons foe her decisions are emotional but her actions are calculated. She knows how to swallow those emotions if she needs to but prefers to not "turn off."
38. Would they consider themselves a Type A or Type B personality?
lol Type A obviously
39. What recharges them when they’re feeling drained?
Going for a run - outside if the weather is good at home but in the Capitol or bad weather she'll run on a treadmill. The worse she feels the harder she runs.
40. Would you say that they have a superiority-complex? Inferiority-complex? Neither?
She's like 99.5% sure she's better than everyone else.
41. How misanthropic are they?
Basically everyone is on notice. She thinks that people are motivated by their own needs. Nobody does shit just to be nice. They do it to get what they want from you.
42. Hobbies?
43. How far did they get in formal education? What are their views on formal education vs self-education?
Well she won the Hunger Games so that's basically a PhD in One.
44. Religion?
Is religion a thing in Panem? Pretty sure it's not. If they were, her motto would be "Me and God, we don't get along"
45. Superstitions or views on the occult?
Generally, One superstitions surround wine and gemstones:
Spilling wine is bad luck, spilling wine during a wedding ceremony is an awful omen of things to come.
Emeralds bring luck and are traditionally worn during weddings and by expectant mothers .
46. Do they express their thoughts through words or deeds?
Cashmere finds it hard to verbally express her feelings. Sometimes she can't even name her feelings.
47. If they were to fall in love, who (or what) is their ideal?
48. How do they express love?
49. If this person were to get into a fist fight, what is their fighting style like?
She'll kick your ass.
50. Is this person afraid of dying? Why or why not?
She doesn't want to die, but she's not afraid of dying. Death's the only way out of the Capitol's grasp.
Huge bed with a big fluffy comforter. She has air conditioning in the bedroom specifically since summers get pretty hot. Lots of photos of her and Gloss over the years, a couple of her parents. The bed's all white but the rest of the room is shades of tan with red accents. .
