Answers to "Ask anything about me-- DarkUlrich [stolen from everyday9]"

Sooooo... tada!!! Here are my answers to your awesome questions. I actually had fun answer such a wide range and fun mix of questions from you wonderful people out there.

So here we go!

From exatfrds 

A question, what got you into AFF in the first place?

Hmm... Actually, I cannot honestly remember how I stumbled into AFF. I just remember the first fanfic that I've read here was SNSDLover1708's fanfic in which incidentally you are currently rewritting. Reading that got me to write my own fanfic, and here I am.

 

From soothighs 

LETS PLAY TWENTY QUESTIONS IN THE COMMENTS, SHALL WE. 
wuts your favorite color?

Blue, Black, and Pink. Yes. Pink. Blame Tiffany.

are you a righty or a lefty?

I'm a righty. I wish I was ambidextrous though. That would have been so cool.

what other Kpop groups do you like other than SNSD?

TVXQ, SHINee, and Infinite. f(x) is moving into that list too. But I don't consider myself as a fan of these groups. I only go for SNSD.

cats or dogs?

Knowing you, I have to apologize. I'm a dog person. Always has been. (please don't hate me)

elephants or penguins?

Penguins. They walk funny it's cute.

wut do you do for a living cause ur like older and junk?

I'm a senior research analyst for a third party think tank and consulting firm that does tons of different . I'm in charge of a lot of the statistical analysis and reporting stuff, but I'm in charge of a small team of junior analysts and field workers.

father, why am I not with you going to Seoul? ;-;

Uhh...

wuts your favorite song?

Hmm... of all time? That's hard, but right now, that one I can think of is "If I Never Knew You" by Jon Secada and Shanice (OST of Disney's Pocahontas). Really more of depends on my mood of the day.

what did you want to be when you grew up as a child?

I wanted to be a medical doctor. Surgeon if I remember right.

how long have you been into Kpop?

I've into KPop since 2001, when I first heard of g.o.d (Kim Taewoo rulzzzzzzz!!!). Then when they "disbanded", I went into hiatus. It was only in 2010 when I got back to KPop with SNSD.

how long have you been on aff?

I've been in AFF for two years now. Started when I began writing my main fanfic in 2013.

do you prefer solids, liquids, or gases? maybe plasma?

Plasma! (Just because they look cool)

have you ever wanted to be an inanimate object?

Yeah. I actually did.

if so, wut was that object?

A CCTV camera. So I can see everything (It would be better if I have all sorts of scopes like infrared, x-ray, enhanced HD, multiple zoom, etc.)!!!!

if not, why the not? 

LOL

wut if you were a and then you could fuIM OFF TOPIC NOW.

If I were a I would go a fuNEXT!!!!!

do you have a favorite food? 

YES! Sushi!!! (If only they weren't so damned expensive though...)

favorite place?

I don't actually have one to be honest since I tend to move around a lot due to my work. But my apartment does give some peace of mind at times when I needed it.

OOOO have you been to many places in the world? 

I've been to Taiwan (for graduate studies and work), traveled the entire island there for a couple of weeks or so, including that time I went to the outlying islands there as well (beautiful place, Taiwan is). Also been to Thailand (three times! I love that place, especially up north in Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai), Singapore, Hong Kong and Macau. Is that considered many already?

Oh yeah, and then South Korea next week. I"m planning to go around as well, not just in Seoul.

how many Kpop concerts have you been to?

Including this one I'm going to next week, seven.

is that twenty questions yet?

No idea. Too lazy to count. LOL.

 

From everyday9 

What's the inspiration behind Eric's character in your fanfic? Name? Personality? 

Hmm... good question. I guess it's more about the fact that I wanted to have a character in a fic that's the total opposite of the usual protagonists that I was seeing around. The typical ones are always brash, rulebreakers, and troublemakers and the plots always have a line wherein there's a road to redemption and growing up. TBH, it's sorta cliche already. I wanted to have a character that's already "grown up" at a relatively young age who can appreciate the fact that whatever he does has consequences, not just for himself, but for the others around him, basically a Boy Scout or a soldier type guy who'd only break the rules or get into trouble if it's for the greater good.

The name is actually a play on my given Chinese name when I was in Taiwan which I translated to Korean using some random website, LOL.

 

From ThisRandomKid13 

Since you use alot of Assassin's creed and Green Arrow characters and themes, any plans of using things like Watch_Dogs or video games and TV shows in your fics?

I did try to use Watch Dogs (in the chapters where Ji Chan was using a handheld device when hacking and tracking down people), but when I got to play the game for a bit, I understood why it got bad reviews. I held off a bit on the Green Arrow thing especially after Season 2 of the show and then they started bringing in the League of Shadows into it (LOL, it'll be very awkward to have Ra's al Ghul appear all of a sudden). Hmm... I dunno... it really depends on how some other shows will pan out, but we'll see. You'll notice that I did put in a little Deus Ex as well (with Ji Chan's enhancements and upgraded gear).

 

From Aerxia 

do you believe in horoscopes/fate/destiny/soulmates? Im actually curious on a guys pov on these kind of things

Just to a certain extent, yes. But I use them more as guides for horoscopes. I do believe we have a fate or a destiny, but I also believe we have the power to change the course of our fates or destinies. As for soulmates, that's a diverse matter for me since I've come to realize that there are a lot of different kinds of soulmates depending on the context. Like right now, for sure I've found two: one for my fanboying over SNSD, which was my roomie back in Taiwan (we still keep in touch often and travel around together whenever we can even though he's back in his home country), and my partner at work (since we do work in teams), of whom we have countless projects together already.

And none of that gay stuff.

Who's your SNSD bias actually ~~ more like snsd manager concept pls

I don't have a bias in the sense of the word as most fans consider. I do have openly declared that I am in love with Hwang Miyoung for reals.

 

 

Well that was fun. I hope I was able to answer all of your questions adequately. Thank you very much for those who have asked. Seriously. Thank you!
