Omg these are my favourite kind of videos of yours! All your content is amazing but these really help me "work" even while resting and get in touch with my story even when I'm too tired to write. I don't know how many times I re-watched all your writing videos, thank you for making them!

[@FloontzASMR]

Thank you so much, I’m really happy that you like them and that they help you 💖✨✨

[@vaguelyanonymos1064]

the story i'm writing right now is really focused on characters and their relationships, so these questions are actually so helpful. it also helps me keep my story on my mind when im too busy with work to write.

[@valeriafernandezr]

[@adrian9901]

​@@FloontzASMRStill sista.. but no time to answer. I'll try at night. Seems like this one is more lite than the antagonist one. 😅

[@SleepyHollowKnight]

I rewatched it with a different character today because I really couldn’t get a grasp on him but I forgot the “orange liquid” part and he’s literally a glass of orange (sounds weird but swear it makes sense in context)

[@FloontzASMR]

We need the context 👀

[@neutronine]

Very insightful questions. I will have to listen again. I dropped into a restful daze after the answer as the antagonist and someone else. I heard it all, but couldnt respond. They have different justifications for their actions, which suggests we all do. Makes me question my own motives for my choices. .

[@FloontzASMR]

oOoOo

[@dasauce92]

[@Arsonimp]

I feel like I've commented on this before but I apparently haven't This is so nice, asmr wise and for characters, and this also happens to be the video that made me find your channel Before I had a sort of dnd based warforged character I was answering as but now I have him more as a full fledged character set in the late 1800s-early 1900s uk, still a robot, but a revived one (which may or may not also include a vampire as a scientist character.. odd I know) Time to write down what answers "William hays" would say, I've been working on his characterization pre-death, so it will for the most part be set at around 1880 or so.

[@Arsonimp]

AITA: 1: "If your little brother did something first, why not, as long as it does no harm " 2: "Uhmm... yes? Why are you stealing ducks in the first place" 3: "Talking behind ones back infront of you isn't nice at all, I'm no one to talk, I'm probably the biggest ass Birmingham has seen, nta" 4: "Like.. a maze? Or something else. Either way, Nta if it was something that was coming his way." 5: "With... animal products? So everything ever, what do you want him to starve? Nta" 6: "Please clarify, what?" 7: "Nta, it's your wedding, you do what you want" (Him looking at a picture of his deceased fiancé he saw more as a friend more than anything but was obligated to marry) 8: "We all need our alone time , but you should have discussed this with your partner first. You are the arse" 9: " what do you want people to assume your son is missing? Nta" 10: Yes. 11: "Why? Is it because you didn't want to pay? Or couldn't?, f thats the case I'd say you're the arsehole" 12: This sounds like something I would say jokingly to Grant, nta" 13: "Nope. Put the bastard in his place, if he is rude or awful in any way you have the right to show him how he acts from a different view." 14: "Oh I'm sure that they'll be fine, my lovely cat Earl is fine all by herself, nta" (Don't let this man ever watch your kid/j) 15: "Well not everyone can afford jewlery, but I understand where she is coming from, nta"

[@Arsonimp]

Exercise 2: 1: I Inwardly make a joke about Grant being the vampire, not me, and then put it down. Then pick it up again because it might have been my eyes playing tricks on me... right? Well no, I'm still not in there, I Pinch myself, feel it, so oh crap. I go out to get a pint because I'm too sober for this. 1-2: "They" (there is no one else in this scene besides Grant, so imagine a spectator in a game) Saw him pick up the mirror and freeze, looking like a million thoughts are going through his mind. He looks back down at the mirror then places it down to the ground then looks again. He looks even more positively worried now. For a moment he sits where he was, then gets up abruptly and walks out of the room. 2: Many of the houses look similar , so I suppose it's a simple mistake and hope the people within the house didn't notice me. I quietly sneaks back out the door and I look at the adress on a note I grabbed out of my jacket pocket And check the house numbers more carefully and breathe a sigh of relief when I finnaly get to his house. 2-2: (Neighbor) You have your door unlocked, you must hve forgotten, because you hear the door open throughout the house. You're at the top floor but can look down the staircase to see who the intruder is. It's him. The guy who was rumored to have slain his soon to be wife. She ceouches down and hopes he didn't see her. She knows he isn't a bad guy, per se, vut considering he was in her house randomly is concerning. He looks confused when looking atoundthenhe facepalms and leaves the house and closes the door as quiet as possible... odd. 3: I feeze, most of these photographs seem to be very grainy, but I look through them quickly to make sure there wasn't anything that could be considered criminal. I try to shake my feeling of dread. I start my sentence off with a neutural tone. "I'm sure you've heard of me, mr "probably killed his wife but there is absolutely no proof of it" guy in the town" I say, voice wavering slightly throughout the sentence. He looks at me, nods, then says "alright, thats enough for now" For now? Who even is this and what right does he have to interrogate me? 3-2: (Interrogator) "Who are you? Really?" I say, stone faced. He looks at all the photos feverantly but seems satisfied enough when he gingerly puts them down. "I'm sure you've heard of me, mr "probably killed his wife but there is absolutely no proof of it" guy in the town" he says, words shaking near the end of his sentence, looking like a wounded animal in some regards. I nod in satisfaction for now, someone hiding something obviously wont tell much to a guy thatsprings on questions willy nilly with possible inceiminating photos. "Alright, thats enough for now" I say, scooping up the photos into my briefcase. 4: I assume it's some sort of animal fight... or mate going on in there, id rather not get injured because of some curiosity. I continue walking towards work. 4-2: (Thing in bushes)(not really a pov?) It's an unknown creature. Looks like a failed experiment of some kind. It's frankly grotesque. It can't speak, it must have escaped a waste bin. 5: I'm already a bitter man, the angel was of no help to me anyway, I think, looking at the ceiling. I turn over and go back to bed, it's too early for this. 5-2: (Demon) I grab William's shoulders to wake him up. He groggily opens his eyes and glares at me. I tell him the situation but he looks unphased. Although I am the devil on his shoulder, I do have a little empathy and know he needs this angel because he will only make him worse. Will rolls over and goes back to sleep. Oh boy.

The funniest part is that my main character has like, zero emotion (after a fun fantasy transformation thingy) and so I’m answering all the questions in his mind like, “I dunno, probably”, “ehhh I dunno”, and “who cares, exactly?” He’s definitely a mood.
