Did I ever tell you about the time Dustin..
Agh, I TOTALLY ramble too much. XD;
I make up these characters, and then spend waaay too much time figuring out every little aspect about them, and then some vague sortof drop of conversation will set me off and suddenly it's a GIANT paragraph about their likes and dislikes, fears and dreams, and every little tiny piece of their backstory that might be possibly related to the conversation, and even some that aren't! Then, if another character is mentioned in the backstory, I might start to ramble on about them, too! Because I just go on and on and on and on..
I can't help it! I loves my characters, I do, even if I'm WELL aware that nobody else probably finds this NEARLY as interesting as I do, and are probably fearful of my outbursts.
"Dude, don't mention belly buttons around that guy, one time this friend of mine did, and he suddenly started talking about what kind of belly buttons his characters had! My friend died of boredom. Seriously, he's a skeleton, now!"
But I also love hearing about characters, and all the interesting little stories they have, though noone ever seems to suddenly go off into long winded dialogs like I do. 'Course, it's entirely possible that either, a) they don't want to give every little detail away, or, b) they don't actually bother to think of what their character's views are on the nature of worldwide religion, morality, and preference for cheeses. At the very least, I know it's very rare to get people to launch into paragraphs like I do, though I HAVE gotten it to happen. I don't often ask direct questions, though. I don't know why. I guess I just figure people will randomly tell me things when they want to, even if that's kindof crazy to expect.
I love stories, though. Myself and others'~ If I could do anything at all with my life, without need for support? I'd collect stories.
