Brianna's OC Tag Interview
1. What is your name?
I'm Brianna Chikamori

I'm currently single, and until I get my university degree, I'm not looking.
4. Stop being a Mary Sue!
I have no idea what you're going on about.
5. What’s your eye color?

8. Oh, how about pets?
No, but I've been bugging Daddy for a dog. He wants a cat.
9. That’s cool, I guess. Now tell me something you don’t like
Something? More like someone. That creep next door, Eli Shelley, he's such a dweeb. He calls me up and tells me, "You me...Item?" as If I were his possession. Just becausee we're naighbours doesn't mean I belong to him. UGH!!! He's bought a ticket to Creepsville, because he really gives me the creeps. (phone rings) NO ELI, for the LAST TIME...for the love of God...I'M NOT GOING OUT WITH YOU!!!
10. Do you have any activities/hobbies that you like to do?
Play pool, Paint, Write.
11. Have you ever hurt anyone in any way before? Physically
No, but Eli Shelley is moving up on that list of people I'd like to maim, very quickly (cracks knuckles), Skip Jones is still above him though. I'm still giggling about the time that Grandma Susan punched his lights out.
12. Ever… killed anyone before?
No! What kind of a sim do you think I am? I respect sim-life.
13. What kind of animal are you?
My dad calls me "Mouse'. So embarrassing...
14. Name your worst weaknesses
I want do do everything right and end up spending too much time trying to get things done perfectly. I guess I need to loosen up a little. And well, I have a major addiction to sweets.
15. Do you look up to anyone at all?
My Mom...she grew up with only her mother but she's knitted together a family that has the cohesion of superglue. And I'm glad for that. I want a family just like hers. And I love that my Dad was strong enough that he was able to help Mom be the glue that keeps the entire family together.
16. Are you straight, gay or bisexual?
I lean towards men, if that's what you're talking about.
17. Do you go to school?
I just graduated high-school, my friends thought that I was a keener.and a nerd, but well, the jocks liked me too.
18. Ever want to marry and have kids one day?
Well, one of these days, provided I meet the right guy although we have two male boarders now and well, that Shig Kanzaki looks pretty nice.
19. Do you have fangirls/fanboys?
I'm only 18, y'know.
20. What are you most afraid of?
Not being able to fulfill my life's ambition fo get to the highest level in the education field, I was just hired on in the field, on recognizance that I'm going to university to get my Bachelor's in Education so I'm hoping to move up really quickly.
21. What do you usually wear?
22. What’s one food that tempts you?
I have this unusual hankering for pumpkin pie and if it's in the fridge...well, I've usually eaten most of it by the next day.
23. Am I annoying you?
Look, I have two brothers that i grew up with. I don't annoy easy.
24. Well, it’s not over!
Still not annoyed. Try harder.
25. What class are you (low class, middle class, high class)?
I think classes are an out-dated socio-economic construct.
26. How many friends do you have?
My family...that's all...I was such a "get home, do homework quickly so I can paint" kind of homebody, so all I needed was the closeness of my family.
27. What are your thoughts on pie?
Hey, if you have any pumpkin pie, I'm game.
28. Favorite drink?
Shhhhh...don't tell my dad I drink. He'll go ballistic. He'll think I'm a lush.
29. What’s your favorite place?
The park...I like nature so I like to spend a lot of time at the park.
30. Are you interested in anyone?
Like I said, Shig Kanzaki is rather muscular and handsome, but don't tell anyone that...or my dad will use his size 12 Dakota Steel-Toes and punt him out the door. My dad can get real mean if anyone tries to hit on Alanna and me. I think it's called "putting the fear of God into any potential suitors" and in my dad's opinion, he's God. The Watcher might have a different opinion.(laughs)
31. That was a stupid question.
No comment.
32. Would you rather swim in a lake or the ocean?
Oh lake definitely, I don't like jellyfish, I'd swim in our lake at home, but I think someone put crocodiles and sharks in the lake. Thanks to whoever that was /sarcastically/
(Alanna off-camera: "I happen to have also caught a jellyfish at one point")
Oh freakin' great!? Is there anything not potentially deadly in that lake.
(Alanna: "Not that I know of Maybe the death-fish, unless you eat it).
33. What’s your type?
I'm not saying because my dad will kill him.
34. Any fetishes?
Shhhhh... do you want to get me yelled at?
35. Camping or indoors?
I like camping...it't nice to get outdoors. Though of course during the winter, it gets to -40 with windchill, so I'd have to decline camping in winter.

The Forgotten Question.
[b][i]What is your favorite place[/i][/b]
Haruo: well...I guess it has to be anywhere where River is..., right honey.
River: Yes, anywhere where my husband is...especially in his arms. :) That's the best place I know. and where I want to be...
OC Tag Interview - River (nee McIrish) Chikamori
1. What is your name?
River Chikamori. I was born a McIrish.
2. Do you know why you were named that?
It's a nature name, I'm not sure why my late mom picked it out for me, but I like it. And now I wouldn't be able to answer by any other name anyways.
3. Single or taken?
Like my husband said, "Taken...very happily taken... Thank you very much."
4. Stop being a Mary Sue!
If I was a Mary Sue, I'm probably doing a pretty bad job of it right now.

Green...my husband says that he loves staring into them. I don't mind in the slightest.
6. How about hair color?
Red. Not going to say otherwise.
7. Have you got any family members?
Asian families are big families and well, for the longest time, it was just me, my mom, Molly and Sandi, well, Sandi's all grown up and fled the nest and Molly, well unfortunately her and Uncle Satoshi are now gone. It's really sad to realize that everyone is getting older and some of them that we grew up with aren't around anymore. Hopefully Ojiisan Yasunobu and Obaasan Susan are around for a long time yet. But...(a bit emotional) I still do miss my Mom...a lot.
8. Oh, how about pets?
Not sure right now. Just taking it one day at a time and we'll see what happens. Pets are a major commitment.
9. That’s cool, I guess. Now tell me something you don’t like
Some sims don't get the idea that "No means No..." I'm seriously thinking about getting an unlisted number.
10. Do you have any activities/hobbies that you like to do?
Painting, sculpting...spending time with my hubby.
11. Have you ever hurt anyone in any way before? Physically
Been tempted with a couple of paparazzi, but ...no.

14. Name your worst weaknesses
My husband's errrr...um...Key Lime Pie...yeah...that's it...
15. Do you look up to anyone at all?
I look up to my Mom, she raised me from the time that I was born, all by herself and she wasn't lucky enough like me to have a husband who is faithful and sticks around to take responsibility for the children he's fathered.
16. Are you straight, gay or bisexual?
I have a husband so understandably, I'm straight.
17. Do you go to school?
Like my husband, I couldn't wait to get out of school and live my life. We both went to university together and well, we both have arts degrees. It's good enough. Not planning on going back at any point as of yet.
18. Ever want to marry and have kids one day?
I'm happily married and have had four wonderfully darling children who are growing up into capable young men and women. I think we've done good.
(see above picture)

I wouldn't know...really, I don't see myself being that much of a celebrity.
20. What are you most afraid of?

I'm usually in jeans and a red Canada 150 t-shirt.

Nope...I rarely find myself getting annoyed.
24. Well, it’s not over!
Keep going...
25. What class are you (low class, middle class, high class)?
I don't find that classifying people as certain economic classes as very constructive. I think we should all work together to bring into fruition a productive society.
26. How many friends do you have?
My circle of friends are the ones that are most important to me: my husband, my kids, I wish that my Mom could be here to see how Haruo's and my kids have grown into such wonderful young adults..
27. What are your thoughts on pie?
Well...unlike my husband who's mind is in the gutter half the time, I have enjoyed buzzberry pie once in a while. It's delicious.
28. Favorite drink?
I'm never awake without my cup of coffee in the morning.
29. What’s your favorite place?
Like my husband, I think we both hang out at Divisadero until they kick us out and lock the doors.
30. Are you interested in anyone?
Oh, maybe a few platonic crushes on a few movie stars, but my husband is really all I need and he's all I've ever wanted.
31. That was a stupid question.
I don't know if I should answer that...
32. Would you rather swim in a lake or the ocean?
River: "Lake; but unfortunately somebody who shall remain nameless put sharks and crocodiles in the family pond. The crocs have taken two raccoons and a chipmunk and they're starving." (Haruo looks innocent and whistles a two-note "I didn't do anything" whistle.)
33. What’s your type?
"Strong...handsome, built like a tank..." ~sidelong glance at her husband.
34. Any fetishes?
Hmmm, was this a raw-mag interview by any chance. (smiles winsomely). Mining for the dirty details, huh? Well, let's just say that size is no problem with my husband.
35. Camping or indoors?
I pick camping (except in winter)
