1. What do you often do at your job? Like, do you like it? I know what you do, but I always see you... being a bad boy! Uho ho ho~!
Well... what can I say, heh~ Actually, my job has the potential to have a LOT of downtime (working at the front desk of a hotel for the uninitiated), and from the beginning I've had permission to bring homework and that kind of thing with me to pass the time when nothing's going on. When nobody's checking in and the phones aren't ringing, I don't have a whole lot of other work-related things to do most of the time. So, I can basically finish my homework and screw around online a lot of the time, even though there are inevitably interruptions. I've also ninja'd my way through many a portable game as well, and nobody's the wiser, muahaha.
2. What is your favorite RPG, bar none? What game series makes you go "HNGGG" above the rest-
My favorite RPG for nostalgia reasons has to be Final Fantasy IV. I had played RPGs before this (the original Dragon Warrior and Final Fantasy on the NES, for example), but FF4 was the RPG that turned me into an "RPG fag" and I've been that way ever since. The characters, music, story... everything about the game brings back nostalgic memories of my childhood, so no other game really stands a chance against it for "favorite".
Other games that hit home when it comes to all-time favorites are the first two SaGa games for Gameboy (Final Fantasy Legend I and II), because these were the games I'd play in the middle of the desert in Mexico during my youth, so they have a lot of awesome memories attached.
As for picking a series... I don't know if I can xD; I honestly think I like too many RPG series. But I basically fanboy spaz out over obscure stuff, like the 16-bit "series" consisting of Actraiser, Soul Blazer, Illusion of Gaia, and Terranigma. Plus the Produce games like 7th Saga and Mystic Ark.
In terms of a full-on series, probably Dragon Quest, because it still retains that oldschool feel after all these years. More recently I've become Megaten-obsessed, in particular Nocturne has become a new favorite of mine.
3. Wouldkrile look super hot if dressed like Nina2?
Nina 2 is super hot, Krile is super hot... I can't see how this could ever turn out bad! But, she's obsessed with Nina 1, so I think I'd see her dressed up like that one first. But whenever she gets around to being Nina 2 you'll get exclusive pics for sure~ xD
Hmm, now I've got a mental image of this going on in my head and it IS a pretty nice thought XD
4. What languages do you know and what are you planning on learning?
I know Spanish (pretty darn well, I'd say) and Japanese (not as well as I'd like), and... English!!11 In the future, I'd love to pick up either Chinese or Arabic if I'm going to add on another "hard" language... otherwise maybe Portugese if I'm going to pick an "easier" one. But right now I'd rather focus on perfecting the ones I'm learning at the moment, because halfassing a bunch of different ones doesn't seem like such a good idea, even if it is tempting xD;
5. On that note, what are your plans for the future- do you want to travel or stay put, are you interested in going into any sort of degree program or-?
I really don't have any concrete plans at the moment. Traveling would definitely be something I'd love to do, and I'm not averse to moving somewhere else in the country or world in order to pursue a job or just because it appealed to me. I may continue on for my Master's if I'm not able to get any decent job after graduating, so... we'll see what happens! I'm not sure what job I'd get using my languages (translation maybe?), but my "dream job" is translating video games :3
