I know it’s not in the spirit of the game of ‘kiss marry kill,’ but realistically it would be 1. No one, 2. No one, and 3. No one.
If I were somehow possessed by a Fingerking playing a badly conceived, uninhibited version of myself, it would be: 1. Sinning Jenny. 2. The Sardonic Music-Hall Singer, but it would be a marriage of convenience. She would gain a wealthy spouse with an open pocket policy, and I would gain a buffer against the constant barrage of questions about my marriage status. 3. The Vake.
Actually, that last one is accurate.
So… Surface food or Neathy cuisine? edited by Lamea Lawless on 12/28/2015 because her player forgot to add a question edited by Lamea Lawless on 12/29/2015

Pyro - "I prefer a certain type of Neathy cuisine. I wouldn’t trade anything for the delicacies that I hunt beneath the apocyanic waves" He looks disappointingly at the prepared beef dish "Those prey don’t fight back too vigorously"
Rudolph - it smiles and smacks its lips together "Rubbery Lumps"
Question: You’re going to work at Mrs. Plenty’s Carnival for a few weeks. What performance/exhibit will you do?
I would. I may have to. I hope that I do not - I’ve never been good at killing. It is fortunate that the one I love has always been far larger, stronger, and better at ending lives than I could ever be.
This may have been asked before, but would you return to the surface if you could? If you did, what would you do? Why?

Pyro: "I’ve no intention to return to that tame lands but I’ll humor you" Pyro smiles. "If I’ll ever return then I shall first establish my own "Fleet of Truth" but I’ll hunt and study monsters rather than academics unlike a certain colleague of mine." Pyro looks at a stack of papers that he "borrowed" from Dr. Orthos. "There’s monsters to be had even in the Surface and it will be enjoyable to hunt them down. Mr Inch may help me get the necessary contacts there."
Rudolph: "No! no! no!" it hisses "Shiny lands have more pretty ones. Pretty ones throw rocks. Rocks hurt."
Question:
You managed to seduce a certain Surface spy. Where in the Neath will you take them for a date and how will you take (or protect) their secrets?
Dirae Erinye to the shrines in the Forgotten Quarter. The beauty there is unspeakable and the privacy unbeatable.
As for their secrets, well I would start of with a few honey dreams and then figure out from there. Each lock requires it’s own special key.
Since I want this game to go on, I’ll just continue with a repeat of the last question that was asked:
That’s easy: the Singing Mandrake first, a honey-den later. They will wake up on board a steamer to Venderbight the next day. Or, if I don’t like them, I’ll leave 'em for the Fingerkings to play with…
What do you think would happen if you fed Lacre to a Rubbery Man? edited by phryne on 1/8/2016

To keep to a theme. What would you serve to a Tiger who came to tea?[/quote]
As long as tea was not intended to be me, which I doubt, as the politeness of Tigers is noted in this city, the following should do nicely:
Tea: Smokey Earl Grey
Sandwiches: Cucumber Sandwiches
Savory: Goat Cheese & Mushroom quiche
Sweet: Scones with Jam
As a matter of fact, I’m currently doing so, having adopted daughters from the Orphanage I run. There’s troubles, of course, but really, there’s going to be troubles everywhere, when you’re a parent.
On that note, though, would you have wished for a childhood in the Neath?
Absolutely not. For all that the Urchins and I get along splendidly from time to time, children in general are not people I prefer to interact with when given the choice. Not after what happened to my little brother. And the Neath is no place to grow up, in my opinion. Children are quite violent enough on their own, thank you. Teenagers, now, are another matter entirely.
Many of us have glimpsed our futures and even our ends. If you have seen such a glimpse, what would you change about it, given the choice? If you have not, do you want to?
First, I would try to think up any sort of loophole to this problem. If I cannot escape with conventional means, I will just use unconventional means! Then I remember that I am only a skilled detective living in a bookshop, and I do not have access to unconventional means. At this point, I would try to finish my current case, or if I was not far enough along to be able to make a quick and accurate deduction, visit the parlor of virtue. Now before you start a vicious rumor, think about your own answer.
My question is this: were any of your deaths, if any, caused by your own hand, purposefully or accidentally, directly or, the most common way of killing yourself, indirectly? edited by GamerGallade on 1/9/2016

If your list includes things like incaution, overconfidence and plain old stupidity then, I’m afraid, most of my deaths could be described as "caused by myself"…
Something inspired by Truthseeker’s question above: if you knew that the next Fall was imminent and you had the means to travel somewhere far away on the Unterzee to pass time in comfort there while the Sixth City sorts itself out… which place would you choose?
I suppose I would support the revolutionaries, specifically the dynamite faction (I assume there are other factions out there) because they have such a catchy name for their plan. The liberation of night just has a ring to it. As for my question. Would you marry a horrid imp if it meant avoiding permanent death?
Why of course, there’s nothing better than a sadistic, potentially poisonous spider boy. A wonderful source of protection from not only death but anyone who dared bother you. Would you rather send the rest of eternity living among the drownies or the tomb-colonists?
I am quite suprised that you think the drownies are anywhere near the tomb-colonists in terms of appeal. May I note that it does not say that you are a drownie, just that you are living among them. I do not think that they would hesitate for a second to attack you. On the other hand, I am currently closer to the tomb-colonists than to any other group, and from them I have learned much that few others know. I really do not know why nobody can get along with the colonists, maybe the fact that I do not care much for looks when making acquaintances lets me see farther than their tattered rags. Also, who would want to be wet for eternity?
Would you allow another human whom you have never met and will never meet to control your every move if said human had good decision-making skills?
Power can be ever so easily transformed into money, by whatever avenues one might desire. Money, however, can only lead to a certain sort of power - one that is easily taken away as a stack of echoes left unguarded. Not that I’ve ever done something of the sort, of course. That would be rude.
My question for you is this - when the time comes for you to forget, would you rather keep your worst memory, or lose your best?
I would rather lose my best. The happiness it brings stands in stark contrast to the misery that follows - it is a memory of things lost, never again to be attained.
Excluding your soul for the purposes of this question, how much of your parts and faculties would you surrender for eternal life? Your limbs? Your sight? Granting, of course, that whatever you lose can never be reacquired or functionally replaced.
I… Keep my worst. I would love to forget the day I lost my love to the underzee or forget the day I lost my soul but it is… impossible for me function with out the memory of my husband. So I would rather keep my worst
Next question. Who do you care about the most?
