Are you interested in trying Super Villainess (from Villainess - the birthday scent that was just released tonight!) and if so, which item do you like the most? (Soap, Whipped, Smooch, Extrait, Smack...) O.M.G. that sounds awesome! I love the scrubby thing and the soap from Villainess!

 

If I were to order you a Smack, which four notes would you like? I have a list of smack notes that I'd love to try, as for combos... I really don't know! Go wild!

 

Would you enjoy receiving a knitted gift from your witch? If so what would you be interested in (scarf, hat, wrist / handwarmers, socks, etc.) and in what colors? I love writs and hand warmers and Adore hand knit socks! Oooh and I'd love a giant hood thing, I think they're called cowls? Nice big fluffy loose one! Colours, anything that I've already said I like to wear!

 

What scent "got away"? Anything you liked but swapped for something else and once in a while get all "I wish I hadn't done that" about it? For me lately it seems to be Tarot: The Star. I had a full 10ml bottle, and some decants, and then ended up swapping it for something or selling it or something like that. I don't really want a full bottle, but a decant would be nice to have again!

 

March 23

 

Easter Candy - do you like it? If so, what types?Omnomnom!! I love candy, sours and gummies are the best! (I've been wanting some gummi bears for a while now.) I like jelly beans, but really only like the expensive jellybellies. Easter specific candies? Peanut butter eggs.

 

What scent(s) are you petrified of getting DC'd? Bliss, Eclipse, Detox, of those I only need to get a bottle of Detox, but I'd love to have backups of all of them at some point.

 

March 22

 

Violette Market Update is up. Do you covet anything from it? I try to stick with BPAL, as I lack the funds to buy many different types of perfume.

 

What is your favorite type of wine? Would you be interested in trying something new? In that case, is there anything you really DONT like? Ooooo how about dessert wines? No wine for me.

 

March 21

 

What three things are you craving right now? A swim in the ocean, crab and/or southern food, some more cupcakes from www.fortheloveofcake.ca or http://theweddingcakeshoppe.com. Both amazing bakeries within walking distance to my house (though the love of cake one is closer.)

 

paper goods, anyone need? including resume paper, and formal stationery as well as casual cards. I'd love some! I'd actually kinda like some that looks like it could be Usagi's (sailor moon) pink with stars, moons and rabbits all over it. I wish I could find you the image, but I'm having trouble finding what I'm thinking of.

 

What is a scent that you've been trying to find even a sample of for a very long time to no avail? (What bottle would you die to get your hands on - even a partial?) I don't even know! LOL! I haven't really been looking because I can't really buy, but I'd like to get my hands on some Champagne, Chocolate and Cheap Sex, Le Père Fouettard, and I'd love to even just sniff Orange,

Storyville or unseelie. I'd love to get a hold of some Voodoo Queen too! (I don't ask for much do I? :lol:)

 

Is there anything in your life that you'd like advice or a "selfhelp" book for?: (ie finances, eating healthier, meal planning) I'd like some exercise tips or healthier eating, meal planning tips. I answered this in thread, but can't find it. lol!

 

March 19

 

If your Witch lived near you, would you be happy or creeped out to get a "coupon" for a service like cleaning help or babysitting or dogwalking or coffee out with your Witch or something like that? Would you be creeped out if a local minion personally delivered a package to your house from a far-away Witch? Not at all! I like visitors!!

 

Let's say I have a pair of something you collect, would you like one of them and we have matching things? That'd be neat.

 

 

March 18

 

Do you like poetry? I think? :lol: I've liked some poetry does that count?

 

What types of scents do you like to scent your home? Which do you totally avoid? I'm kinda the foody scent person, though I'm fairly specific. I do like lime too.

 

What are your thoughts on comics? Any you like? Any you have been wanting to try? Favorite characters? I've been reading The Walking Dead, and Buffy Season 8. I have the first 5 of the Buffy uh, what's the word, when it's like 6or so comics in a papercover? ugh I'm so bad with language! :lol: Also attempting to collect all the Sailor Moon pocket graphic novels, I have 4 so far, and will continue to try and get more. It's gonna take a while though. I do like x-men, but haven't really followed most of the comics, and would love to start reading Sandman.

 

How do you feel about nail polish? What colors do you like? Sparkles? As others have stated, I also only paint my toes. Mainly because I'm not allowed to have polished nails at work (and it sucks!) I do love it though, and I really love RED! Though I'm always looking for really awesome metalics in Gold, silver, copper and bronze that don't have sparkles and apply smoothly without the brush strokes showing up in the polish.

 

Ok geek check - what sort of geeky things do you do? Do you read comics/graphic novels? Are you obsessed with something (a TV show maybe?) Do you work in a geeky field? Do you play rpgs like Dungeons and Dragons? Would you like gifts related to any of these? I think I was good at giving some idea of the level of my geekyness on the ?aire (I added a 3-4 paragraph note to my witch :lol: ) but I do read comics (see comic question) and fairly obsessed with Leon S. Kennedy (though many of you already know this ;) I wish he were real and I always wish he was in the Resident Evil movies, but at the same time I'm glad he's not because I don't know if anyone could play him up to my idea. Also fairly obsessed with Sailor Moon (I :heart: her! I want to do cosplay some day) and Dr. Who, for the non-tv, I adore the Dresden Files (don't tell me there was a show, I'm trying to forget!) For video games I adore Final Fantasy 9 (only 9, couldn't get into the others.) Mario (who doesn't?) and Legend of Zelda! I used to play D&D but no longer. I also am fairly obsessed with Vampires and have been since I was young. I don't really care for a lot of the modern day teeny bopper vamprires, or Anne Rice to be honest, but I do love me some vampire erotica or romance. I would adore anything related to these! And if my witch needs to know more of the geeky stuff I'm into I can try and make a more detailed list. :nod:

 

Do you have a favorite fabric? If someone were to make you a fabric item, would you prefer it be out of any fabric? e.g. velvet, satin, silk, cotton, bamboo??? Would this change if it were an article of clothing vs. a bag/pillow/blanket/something else I love the feel of Velvet and silk and bamboo! my favourite bedsheets are bamboo and I want to get another set or two. I do like most other types of fabric as well, just prefer natural fibers as apposed to synthetic fibers.

 

Anything with the Worm Moon update that you're already lusting after? Thankfully enough, no! I took a look last night right before bed and went to sleep knowing there was nothing to tempt me, but had to double check this morning because I don't think I was paying that much attention!

 

March 17

 

Would you want an invite to a site that is invite-only ex. Diaspora, Demonoid, etc. If so, what? Can't think of any, no.

 

Pillows? What size/designs/colors would most interest you? I think I'm set for pillows.

 

purses? bags? What style/colors? As much as I really do need a new purse I can be picky. It needs to have inner pockets, and a zipper on top, with a strap that can extend to wear over my shoulder. I have a few ideas of what I like on my Etsy wl though.

 

Decorative scarves for hair and/or creative accessorizing? What colors? Not really me.

 

Would you like anything from Starring Fragrances. They make awesome hair stuff, natural deoderant, and home fragrance (and a ton of other stuff, those are just my favs)? Not even gonna look! XD don't need something else to spend my money on!

 

March 16

 

For those who like lipgloss, lipstick, tinted balms, etc, what colors do you wear (and warm? cool?) and do you prefer something sheer or more opaque? How do you feel about shimmer? I wish I could get a lovely red, (like Christina Agulara wears) but I can never find one and a lip liner that doesn't smug or bleed. I also have weird shaped lips so it goes a little weird on me sometimes (my birthmark has a name and I can't remember it right now, but it's made my upper lip asymmetrical so I have to really focus when I put lipstick on.

 

Are there any fancy/gourmet/special herbs or spices that you'd love to receive? ie: good quality vanilla or other extracts, vanilla beans, saffron, lavender, etc. Not that I can think of, no.

 

What's your favorite animal? Or is there one that's particularly significant to you? Big cats, particularity Lions, tigers, jaguars, leopards, and the little wild cats like sand cats, ocelots, geoffry cats, bob cats. I love Shiba inus, and Akitas. I love ravens and crows, Owls, Otters(!!) and octopuses (weird, octopuses doesn't get a spell check, but Octopi does.) I guess you could say I like animals?

 

If you were able to get a vintage or prototype bottle from the upcoming West Coast Will Call, which one would you want?I might get Boo v3, Cake Smash v6 or maybe Elf or half Elf though I have no idea what they smell like (those just happen to be my favourite species in D&D)

 

DVDs, Blu-Ray, both, neither? just DVD really, we have a PS3 but I usually just put something on a geek stick (usbstick) and pop it in the usb port and watch downloaded shows/movies that way.

 

Sock Dreams? What kind? (anklets, footies, etc.?) Oh they said the magic word! I adore sock dreams! I wish I could afford more! I really like the tabi socks, and recently found these and love them! (Brown, charcoal, olive, denim, grey, hunter, royal, rust.)

 

Since this is a price capped round, would you rather get one "big" thing or lots of "little" things or don't care? I am going to leave this up to my witch, it's not that I don't care, it's that it doesn't matter! I will love anything you get me!

 

Do you like pirate-related things? Sure! but maybe just some art? or a functional item.

 

Soaps? Be specific: if there are BPAL soaps you want to try or are dying for more of, tell all here! Also, any other companies people like or love? Villainess, maybe? Or Lush? What flavors??? I'd love to try the Shub soap from the trading post, or a little bit of Glowing vulva bath oil. I adore Tarty's soaps from Paintbox soapworks and really want to try The Immaculate Confection and the Blackbird soaps, and from Villainess the Death by Chocolate bar sounds amazing!

 

What periods of art do you love most? Like, if someone was going to get you a tapestry or a box or some other item, what period would you want it to most resonate with? the pinks and golds of Rococo? the clean geometry of Art Deco? The romanticism of Art Nouveux? The strange lines of Cubism? Art Nouveau, hands down. I am quite a romantic ;)

 

Would you like caffeinated lollipops?: No thanks witchy dear, I can't do caffeine.

 

Copied CD's or DVD's? But of course!

 

I'm going to Disneyland in a couple of weeks, is there anything I can get you? I adore Jasmine!

 

March 15

 

Booze? Yay or Nay? what kinds? No, thank you, doubt it could be shipped to Canada, and if I have a Canadian Witch, I just don't drink that much.

 

Steampunk inspired items? Yay or nay? Sure! I'm kinda getting into the subculture! (though I have nothing of it as of yet.)

 

Do you like Amigurumi dolls? Yes! I would love one! A chocobo, or a Leon, or maybe a Leonard from BBT, a Maneki Neko (japanese Lucky cat), a shiba inu, or or or! the list could most definitely go on!!

 

Pirates vs Ninjas vs Zombies - who wins? Which do you love most? Uh, Pirates, obviously ;)

 

Do you like wearing things in your hair? If so, what kind (snap clips, scrunchie, headband, etc), how big & crazy (lowkey, bigger the better), and colors. I love Snap clips, need some more, but I prefer the more nuteral coloured ones. Also need more bobbie pins. And Elastics! My hair just started to get long enough to pop in a pony and I have two or three lonely elastics roaming the apartment. I did have some headbands for work but I stopped wearing them.

 

Piercings? - ears?? - elsewhere? Just my ears, and actually juts my lobes. I do have 7 holes though.

 

Chocolate. With stuff in it? Are you more a plain chocolate lover, a chocolate and normal items lover (normal items being nuts, fruit, caramel) or do you like weird stuff in your chocolate? (weird stuff being curry, chilis, balsamic vinegar, floraly things) My favourite chocolate bar ever is the Vosges Curry bar. Omnomnom. I wish it wasn't so expensive up here, else I'd get it all the time! That said, I really do like to try anything once and the weird stuff is so yum! My favourite American chocolate bar is the Hershey's Symphony bar. My parents get me a big one every year at Christmas and then sometimes throughout the year they might bring one up. I thought Q had eaten mine from Christmas this year, but I found it in a drawer! (thank goodness!)

 

March 14

 

surprise! the world has given you the day off. You hear that, no chores, responsibilities, or budget you have to follow. What would you do in those 24 hours? Ok, Providing there's endless money, I don't have to worry about sleep and I can get places all over the world quickly, I'd go to Japan and help with the rescue of people and animals in the areas hit by the earthquake and tsunami, in the last 2-3 hours of the day I'd come back here and get a full body massage, pedicure, and sit in The Waters.

 

Now if I couldn't just go anywhere in the world, I'd do what I could to help Japan from here, getting food together, supplies, whatever we're sending, and if we're sending nothing, then start getting people and supplies ready and finding a way to send them there. And again the last couple hours I'd get a massage and all that.

 

Do you have any blogs you regularly read? uh... not really.. I'm bad at keeping up with blogs. And I should really figure out how to use RRS. That said I do have quite a few in my book marks that when I'm bored and think about it I go see if there's any new posts.

 

Do you need another bpal box? If so what would your fantasy one look like? Maybe not a bottle box, but am in dire need of an imp box! as for looks? surprise me!! (though I do love that box that Twi shared! I will own one, one day!)

 

Do you enjoy gardening? If so, what kind of stuff do you grow? Vegetables, flowers? I wish I could, I would love to do it. Sadly I live in a high rise and my balcony faces southish west and I get all the afternoon and evening sun (it gets HOT out there man!) I so can't wait until I have a house. or at least something with some land I can garden in!

 

Social Networking sites: Autumnslioness on Twitter, LJ I don't use at all anymore and I'm in the GUSP facebook group, you can find my username and my realname in the officers list.

 

favourite artists or specific paintings? Love love LOVE! Alphonse Mucha (like :love: ) besides that... yea I'm not so good with the artists. My deviant art favourites has a bit of what I like, and that picture of "The Goldfish" by Klimt was wicked awesome!

 

how about mix CDs?: Sure! I love getting new music!

 

Hey, how do folks feel about little e-goodies, like links to stuff your witchee likes? (articles online, pix, fic, etc) LOVE 'em!! I adore fanfiction too, so if You can find some with my favourite characters also awesome! My favourite parings: Buffy/Giles, Buffy/Spike, Leon/Clair, Wesker/Chris, Wesker/Clair, I kinda have a soft spot for Twilight fanfiction, mainly because the fanfiction is better than the stories themselves. Sailor Moon fanfiction, X-men fanfiction.

 

Tim Tams? Yes or no? Chocolate Creme, Caramel, or Dark Chocolate?: YES! The answer is YES!

 

Is there any "classic" literature (Hemingway, Dickens, Elliot, Bronte, Hugo, Wilde, etc.) that you would like to add to your collection? I've been interested lately in the classics and actually have a bunch on my universal wishlist.

 

candles and/or aroma melts: yay or nay? Sure! But it can't smell too fake. I tend to like foody scents in candles cause it's not that hard to mess up (though I have smelled some and gone "How is that apple pie?" or some other food) Skyelyric mentioned something about woodwick candles in the GUSP thread a bit back and I'd love to get one of those! Soy candles or melts are great too! and if the scent is all natural then even better! (see my wishlist for an idea of scents I like, I popped a list of notes in there that I like or that are doom notes.)

If not Baked goods and you are changing eating habits..a book of recipes perhaps that will help the new eating lifestyle?: I'm always up for more recipes! I'd also love MeiLin's two cook books, I adore garlic and love to use my slowcooker!

 

If you were to make an order RIGHT NOW (Not that any of you will make any bpal orders until SW is over, because you do NOT want to mess up any plans your witch might have!) What would you order (from lab, forum, DD, TradingPost, etc) An order right now eh? Well, Let's say I had unlimited funds ;) I'd get a bottle of Detox, Bitch, Grr, Dana O'Shee, Mme.M and another bottle of Snake Oil to age, and imps of The Lights of Men's Lives, The White Rider, The Red Rider, and Tombstone, get all my main GC wants, and LE wise I'd probably get Chocolate bacon, White Chocolate Mango, Harigata, USHI!!
