Me:
Hey! Thanks, everyone, for the great questions! *turns in Tonight Show desk to face Skua who is sitting on the couch next to his big kisafonn*
Skua:
*scratching his Kisafonn's leg, has an Icelandic accent* Hello.
Me:
Ready to get started?
Skua:
Sure.
Me:
A lot of people like your Kisafonn.
Skua:
Why wouldn't they like her?
Kisafonn:
*purrs*
Me:
*smiles* Okay the first question is from Christine: What's it like to be sixty but look like you're in your thirties? Does it ever get awkward?
Skua:
No, it's common to look this way at my age for Isamaour. My grandfather lived to be 207.
Me:
Makes sense. The second question is from an anonymous inquirer: What is his relationship with his family?
And be discrete about it Skua.
Skua:
*draws his hand back from kisafonn and dusts fur off of his palms* My hjakona and I had a night together and I gave her children. I support her for that reason and my children because they're my blood. I didn't want to have a family.
Me:
I see. Emily asks: Would you like to settle down and be a bigger part of your family's lives, or do you prefer being away?
Skua:
*sniffs* Away.
Me:
*nods* Anonymous asks: What does he think of his profession?
Skua:
*shrugs one shoulder* I'm good at it so I do it.
Kisafonn:
*pushes her horse-sized head into Skua's shoulder, closes eyes*
Skua:
*pets her neck*
Me:
The next two questions are from Emily: If you could trade being a gun for hire for absolutely anything else and still make the same money, would you and if so what would it be?
Skua:
The fur trade. I like hunting whether it be animals or people. *smirks*
Me:
*gulps* Uh huh ......... Does your family know what you do for a living? How do they feel about it?
Skua:
My hjakona does. My children do not. They're eight. They don't need to know. My hjakona disapproves, but I pay for her living so she can't say very much about it. *crosses arms*
Kisafonn:
*licks his ear, lifts head, licks lips, starts grooming herself*
Me:
Anonymous asks: What do each of your family members think of you being gone so much/your profession, and has it ever been a point of contention?
Skua:
There is only my hjakona and children and my children want me around more and of course, I've had a few fights with my hjakona. These are personal questions.
Me:
Such is the nature of these interviews.
Skua:
Remind me not to consent to this again.
Me:
No promises. The last four are from Christine.
Skua:
*fidgets* Good.
Me:
*-_-* Would you ever consider retiring as a gun for hire? What drives you to keep living such a dangerous life instead of doing something else?
Skua:
I will retire--when I have enough money for retirement and why would I do something else that makes less money? Being poor isn't pretty.
Me:
I guess so. How did you come upon riding a kisafonn?
Skua:
*smiles* Reyndis and I have been together for nearly thirty years.
Reyndis:
*looks up from grooming, purrs*
Skua:
While I was traveling in the mountains, she found me cleaning a deer and planned to take me and it for an easy meal but--
Me:
Spoilers!
Skua:
I was asked a question.
Me:
That's a good enough answer.
Skua:
Fine.
Me:
Do you have any regrets?
Skua:
Yes, agreeing to this interview.
Me:
That wasn't--
Skua:
Last question.
Me:
What is your greatest hope in life?
Skua:
Leaving this interview and I'm about to fulfill that dream. *stands* Come on, Reyndis.
Reyndis:
*stands, follows him out*
Me:
Well, that was Skua.
What do you think of Skua? Do you have any further questions for him? Have you ever done a character interview? Share a link in the comments!
