Character Questions Meme
1. Go here to generate 10 random numbers between 1 and 100.

2. Choose a character that I write or have written, be it a canon person (Sherlock), an OC (Dr. Forrester) or whatever. Feel free to pick a character that was used last time, as the questions will most likely be different this time around.

3. Comment with the character and the numbers, and then I will answer the corresponding questions from here

OCS and AU versions of characters are welcome.

35. When was the time you were the most frightened?

When my dad had his heart attack. I've been in a lot of frightening situations at work, but I usually only realize afterwards that they were frightening. I'm too in the moment. I knew then that things were bad, though. It was scary.

65. Who is the person you despise the most, and why?

Despise is a very strong word. I despise murders in general--the ones that plan it out, anyway. Crimes of passion are different. Those are wrong decisions in the moment. But one specific person? It's too strong a word, but I don't really like my mother very much. She walked out when I was a kid. I don't know how you do that to your daughter.

19. Where did you learn most of your skills and other abilities?

My bosses over the years, before I was promoted. Sometimes my juniors, too. I was lucky to have a good example set for me. Some cops aren't made to teach, but my preceptors were.

52. Who or what, if anything, would you die for (or otherwise go to extremes for)?

Anna, without question. And, as a cop, you've sort of agreed you would die to save a life. I don't consider that a bad thing. I don't know if I could live with myself if someone was killed because I didn't try to save them.

93. What goal do you most want to accomplish in your lifetime?

I just want to see Anna grow-up and become a good person. The rest is icing on the cake.

76. Do you smoke, drink, or use drugs? If so, why? Do you want to quit?

I have a drink or two on occasion to relax, but I'm not one for getting drunk. I've seen what drugs and drink do to people. I take sleeping pills, but show me a homicide detective who doesn't.

73. What is your favorite food?

My grandmother Murphy used to make coddle when I was a kid. I've never been able to get the recipe right, but I still make it sometimes for comfort food. Anna likes it.

77. How do you spend a typical Saturday night?

Probably working, but if not hopefully home and being quiet reading or watching TV. If I have Anna for the weekend, we watch movies and play board games.

78. What makes you laugh?

Lots of things. You have to keep a sense of humour. Usually Dresden, though. Either with or at him.

56. Who are your friends? Do you have a best friend? Describe these people.

Sid Kirmani. He's my second-in-command, and a good cop. We respect each other. He has my back, and I have his. That's what you need.

Dresden. He thinks he's a wizard. He might be. He's nuts, but useful, and a really sweet guy. He has my back, too. A lot. I think he's probably my best friend.
