Pick a number between 1 and 13 (OPEN)

(Hi there! Can I do 8?)

(oh boy I need a list…. okay I'm going to let @RhysTheFirebird go now. Then @maglohydracreati, then you my Queen :))
(@JustALostM, i'm so sorry, you can still ask your three remaining questions and I will carry two conversations at once :))

(mhm! three was already done unless you've got other questions for Arrthyus?)

(4 was ben and he's been asked as well, unless you have other questions for my spry youngin?)

(Ok my beautiful child, thank you very much :D)

(is that 1?? 1 was yours truly and LostM is currently working on that P-P)

(is that 5 lol? 5 has not been picked yet :))

A spritely young man saunters into the room, his curls bouncing with each step.

"Hi!" He grins at you, "The name's Charles, and I think I'm supposed to answer three questions, right?"

"Sweet!" He sits on the sofa with his hands behind his head, "Alright, hit me with it. What's the first question?"

Charles cocked his head and looked off towards the wall, a sure sign that he was thinking.
"I don't read often," he replied at last, "But the ones i have read were long scrolls on Zaniellian history, and none of them were interesting." He shrugs"

(no worries! I can carry two conversations ^^)

"Ohhhhhhh that's a tough one," I say, thinking hard, "But I would have to settle on Kaysen, one of my oldest characters. He's like a big brother to me!"

I laugh; loud and abrupt before ducking my head.
"Sorry, I didn't mean that in a rude way. I had writers block from the end of the fall semester of school to the beginning of the spring semester. It was awful. I got through it by having my creative writing teacher give me homework. After that, the ideas started to flow much easier."

I think hard on this final question.
"I've never regretted being a writer," i say slowly, "And i've never really doubted as much either. It definitely wasn't the first thing I wanted to do when I was younger, it was just something I picked up down the road. The first thing I ever set my mind to do was play soccer, but that soon died and became dance for 12 years. So, the plain answer to your question is 'no'." I smile. Then, without even a puff of smoke or a ripple in the image, I vanish.

(to answer Rhys)

Charles looks left and right before bringing his hands down to rest on his knees.
"I don't see why we should have to make it count as one of your three questions. So here's a freebie– Zanielle is where I'm from. My friend, Annabeth, explained it like this; 'A medieval realm with a touch of fantasy.' Whatever that means."

Charles considers this one of the three questions he was supposed to answer.
"Yes i do," he grins, "It's pretty exciting, even without…. what did Annabeth call it? Technology? I've seen her use it before and it looks cool, but if I had to choose I definitely would pick my home country."
