+MAIN+ PROFILE+ STORY+ ALBUM+ HUNTED+ ANGEL+ SHOPPE+ LINKS+ Q&A For a doll lover [questionare by JoAnn] Updated 7.28.2008 [2] How long have you been interested in dolls? Depends on the type of doll. Dollfies? Since 1999 or so. Other dolls? Since I was little. [3] How many SD dolls do you have? 11 [10 full and 2 heads, one head being on loan] [4] What is the name(s) of your doll(s)? Megumi, Jun, Jenova, Fuan, Fanuel, Hesue, Saiyuri, Lan, Samara, Babby Samara, George and Uriel. [5] What type of SD do you have? NS New Makeup Megu, Type1 WS Chiwoo, FCS SD13 BW oldF29, Type1 WS El, Type1 WS El, MNF WS Shiwoo, NS Miyu, Open Eyed WS LuWen on and FD Bod [with Shiwoo hands], Pinky normal Ciel [head], Floral White Cookie, WS Petdoll Rabbit, WS Miho [sort of]. [6] Do you believe in Fate? Why not. [7] Who is the manufacturer of your doll(s)? Volks, Cerberus Project, Fantasy Doll, MuseDoll, Bambicrony, DollZone and Migidoll [again sort of]. [8] What was your first reaction when you saw your SD for the first time? Japan gets all the good shit D: [9] Have you shown your doll off at a Doll Show? Doll show? No, but Doll Meets yes. [10] Which do you prefer? Commercial SDs (such as Kyon customed dolls) or Customizing your own SD? Both I guess - I have one default [Jun] and he's perfect, the rest are all customized so a little from column a and some from b. [11] How do you feel about Commercial SDs? Some of the clothing is amazing. I'd like to have a few of the outfits they make for them but alot of the dolls themselves don't appeal to me. I pretty much have every one of the dolls that appeal to me actually. [12] Did you create a personality/background for your doll(s)? Yep, every single one. [13] What type of relationship do you have with your doll (eg. beloved daughter, friend)? They rule me with an iron fist ;~; [14] Does your SD have a nickname? Some do, others don't. The ones that do are as follows,
Jun -> Pink floofball, fluffball, ball-o-cute *gets shot*
[15] What special meaning does your doll's name have?
~ Megumi means "Hope" and she got it because back when I first discovered SD's, I never ever thought I'd be able to own one [hell, we didn't even own a camera back then D:]
[16] Does your SD have a special seat/place in your room? If so, where? They have special places all over the damned house D: As it stands, Jenova and Fuan are right next to the compy table in their couch, Megumi, Saiyuri and Kazuya are on the heater in the livingroom [since it's turned off for the summer], Draco, Jin and Krystal have a section of bookshelf in the livingroom, Persephone has a different bookshelf, Lan is right next to the compy table on the jewelry chest, Fanuel is standing on the floor at it's base, Hesue [and the visiting Io] are on Jenova's wardrobe behind me and when Io isn't visiting, Hesue is on the top of the bookcase behind me, Jun sits on the compy table itself, babby Samara moves around but is currently on a couch behind me, and Teen!Samara and Ceeley's heads are in the case that holds my handmade samarai doll that rests in the center of the bookcase Hesue sits on behind me. George also moves around and at the moment, she's sitting on her own section of the shelf below Persephone out in the livingroom. [17] Did you buy a chair specifically for your SD? Yes, a few and a couch. [18] Does your SD have accessories of his own? (eg. pets, toys, hairbrush) Yes, alot. Too many to really go into but the major things they have are as follows-> Megumi has a constantly growing set of mini perfume bottles. Jun has a Zeph plushie, goggles, pink leopard print bedding and a matching trunk for his arm warmers and the like [haha, it also hides those panties he sometimes reluctantly models for his boyfriend < ___<] and the anniversary box Zeph brought back from Nova that he's slowly been adding to. Jenova has a wardrobe and the small box that holds both Fuan and Aki's feathers, Fuan's human form hair lock and the pearl gateway to the Shrine from TH, Aki plushie, his collection of real booze and his custom designed and made chainmail not to mention the engraved ring he and Aki have matching bands for. Fuan has his swords, Tien Jen plushie, silk and velvet bedding and his pictures framed in various silver and antique copper. Fanuel has the rosary Kess gave him. Hesue has his Cthullu plush. Saiyuri has her Sweet Coffee sheep hat. Lan has the framed picture of Halacie that Sashi had commissioned for him [T^T] and his cigarette. [19] What hard to find items do you wish you could get for your doll? The Sister in Black outfit from Dollheart. It's a frikkin replica of Mana's and I've wanted it since I first saw it sell out =_= That and more clothing, rare sets and the like - I have alot of issues finding the clothing sets I like when I actually have the money to get them D: [20] What is the most expensive thing you've bought for your doll? Um... prolly all of Jenova leather sets [between 200-300 each] the chainmail, his wardrobe and all of Fuan's materials [silks and brocades and antique stuff that costs a pretty penny]. Jun's got himself some pricey shit too - Mio stuff and Luts things, same with Fanuel and his Heise outfits, the Dollheart stuff Megumi is so fond of - they are dressed better than me and I spend more on their outfits when I can swing it than I've ever been willing to spend on myself *_*
[21] When you go out, do you take your doll with you? No, not unless I'm going to a meet or taking them to do a shoot. I spent too much money and invested too much time to be walking around with them in public and run the risks of having people I don't know sticking their grimy hands all over my dolls. That and I'm not exactly willing to advertise to the general public that I'm a crazy doll lady who has some very expensive items to collect. I'm not ashamed of my hobby, I just think it'd be stupid of me to give others a chance to mess something I care about up [call it too many years living in the ghetto or whatnot, but I don't trust jack shit when it comes to the general populous]. [22] If so, where have you taken your doll? *points to above* [23] Is there a regular place you take your doll out to? Does the livingroom floor count? [24] If you do take your doll out of the house, how do you carry her? (eg. SD violin case, backpack,etc) If they go out of the house, it's in a carrier. a) for above reasons, and b) there's less risk of them getting messed up on the way. [25] When you do take your doll out, is it easy to do or do you find it's more trouble than it's worth? If I walk away with some pretty frikkin amazing pics, then it's worth any trouble.
[26] Does your doll have a friend? Do you think your doll wants a friend? All of my doll's characters have friends or sig-os. They are content with it all. [27] If you could build your dream FCS for free, what would it be? I already have the FCS I wanted, took me 6 months to pay the bastard off and I've never regretted a moment of it [okay that's a lie, back when I was having bonding troubles I did regret it, but once that passed, I haven't regretted it since]. [28] What is your favorite optional head? old F29 [29] What is your least favorite optional head? F16's and pretty much all of the new elf heads. No offense to those who like/own them, but I've always thought the F16 looks cracked and the new elf heads are retarded looking for the most part. There are exceptions here and there [Xi's tanning F16 Dee being one of them] but very few and far between. For the most part I think they are fug and always will. [30] What type of fantasy head would you like to see produced? Prolly more normal looking elf eared ones, the long droopy down syndrome types they have going annoy me when I see them and I wish Volks would add some variety that isn't stupid..
[31] What made you choose your SD out of all the various types?
Megumi because the first dollfie I ever saw was the Taisho Megu and I instantly fell in love. I was really big into Vampire Miyu back then and she looked exactly like the Doll Shinma from the ova. Jun I covered already above.
[32] What is your favorite wig for your doll? They all have their default hair styles and those will all be my favs no matter what wig it is that represents that style. [33] Do you change your SD's wig often and have you tried styling the wigs? No, their hair is their hair so I don't switch it up unless it's time to replace it with a non frayed version. [34] How many wigs do you have? Default Megu Wig - Pink Lemonade fur wig from Aziza [Jun]- Long Volks center part -modded [Jenova] - layered black wig from Leeke with added extension [Fuan] - a few different layered silver wigs from Leeke and DoD [Fanuel] - Black shag fur wig with pony tails by me [Hesue] - 2 different styles of black wigs for Saiyuri [one leeke, one something], Milk with black streaks Leeke [Samara], clack wind DoD -temp [babby!Samara], Milk wind cut Luts [Lan], a silver modded Luts wig [Uriel] and some random other wigs in varying shades of black, white and silver that I have to sell because no one uses them. [35] How many shoes do you have for your doll? Does your doll have socks too? A shitton at the moment for all of them and the only one who wears socks is Megumi. She has a few over the knee pairs with her lolita outfits. Fuan has fishnets but I'm not sure those count as socks 8D [36] What types of clothing does your doll wear? (name in order of favorite styles) Megumi wears EGL. Jun wears alot of Gothic Punk. Jenova has his own style and it mostly involves nothing or black leather. Fuan wears elegant lady with the occasional hot pants slutty [>D]. Fanuel wears more of an old school punk. Hesue is pretty much a mix of gothic punk and school girl. Saiyuri... we're still working on it because she's picky, but I'd say modern punk. Lan is another who's still in the works style wise, so far it's been a mix of traditional japanese and beatnik. teen!Samara doesn't have a body yet but when she does it'll prolly be a mix of modern youth. Babby!Samara so far has been a mix of cute and tomboy. George doesn't wear clothing but when I get them on her, it'll prolly be a mix of japanse and steampunk. Uriel will be in outfits that his paper character wore once he gets a body and I make them for him. It's not really a set style, just him. [37] Where do you purchase your SD clothing? DollHeart, Luts, Volks, Dollmore, DoA, sometimes DoD, ebilbay. [38] Do you sew clothing for your doll? Yes. [39] Do you plan on dressing your doll as an anime character? If so, who? I've done commissions in the past for Kakyuu's shoppe and Megumi got the pleasure of modeling them. I've done alot - but the list I can remember off the top of my head included Chii, Tiara, Utena, and that blind chick from X to name a few. Jun also got to model an InuYasha cosplay I did on Commission and he wasn't happy about it. [40] Do you make accessories for you doll? What kinds? I haven't in a long while, but have in the past - bracelets, necklaces, earrings, hair accessories and the like. [41] Have you made doll items that you plan on selling? Yes, I have had a commission service for clothing going in the past as well as the cosplay orders I'd been doing in conjunction with Kakyuu's shoppe. I now have a ready made shoppe up and a scars/faceup/aesthetics shoppe going. [42] Do you sew/knit/crochet and for how long? Yes, yes and yes. Been sewing since I was a tiny baby [started when I was 4 years old to be exact]. Started knitting about 10 years ago maybe? I don't do it often so I'm not that good and the same goes with crochet.
[43] Is there a type of music that you listen to when you are with your doll? I'm *always* with my dolls unless I get dragged out of the house, so whatever is playing is what I listen to 'with' them. [44] Have you ever thought about opening a doll shop? Yes, but I'm a terrible personal boss so it prolly wouldn't go too well and has stayed a thought only for a very long time. [45] Do you have a specific area in your home where you keep your doll? I'm pretty sure this has already been answered D: [46] For how long did you know about SDs before you actually got your SD? I knew about and pined for SDs for nearly 5 years before I could afford my first one. Then another 2 to get my second. I laugh when I see people crying over 6 month wait times. It took me FIVE FRIKKIN YEARS. [47] Do you carry your doll around in the house? If I'm moving them from one place or another or taking pics or cleaning, yes. [48] Is there a special place in your house that you like to sit with your doll? Another question I'm pretty sure already got covered... [49] What are the comments you have heard in regards to your doll, after others have seen it in person? I've gotten some really nice and wonderful comments one them - mostly retaining to how pretty they are or how cool. I love everyone I receive ;_; [50] Does your doll have their own website? Angel Hunt.net -yes.
[51] What is the color of your doll(s) eyes now? Also give the size of eyes too
~Megumi's are 22mm HG D.Violet. [52] What is your favorite eye color for your doll(s) and why? All of the above - those are their eye colors whether they are in doll form or not. They can't have any other color [though I do have to say that with Fanuel, despite him getting boosted into Higher status via Io and now having a white eye, I still will always favor his silver in doll form because it suits him so well] [53] How often do you change the eyes? I don't. [54] How many different pairs of eyes do you have for your doll? *Points to above* [55] Do you believe your doll has a "soul"? Not the doll itself, but the character behind the doll, yes. What good is a creation if it can't come to life like that? [56] Do you talk to your doll? Usually. I'm either "arguing" with them or "bitching" at them for one reason or another [like when I'm trying to snap pics and they don't want to pose or fold on me, that sort of thing]. Selene's given them plenty of lectures when they've been mean or what have you to their Sig-o's in rp. There's nothing wrong with it. Now if I expected them to talk back, then there'd be an issue < __< [57] When talking to your doll, how does he address you? Uh, doll is a chunk of expensive plastic with no motor skills, they can't speak. Doll's characters don't have me in their world [bastards] so they don't address me at all. [58] How do men react to your doll? Mixed maybe? I dunno - most men who have seen them have been into the hobby so they don't react any differently than the chicks do. The hubby was pissy about them at first due to the cost, but he became good with them years ago and just talks to me about what they are doing at any point in time in rp or story. He also pimps me out to everyone he speaks to and I love him for that. [59] What was your favorite childhood doll growing up and why? My Bear Pooky, I still have him, he was a gift to me when I was born so he's over 30 years old. [60] Did you have to sell items from a personal collection to raise money to purchase your doll? Yeah, but it's mostly been shit I didn't want or need so it was no loss. [61] If so, what did you sell? Old animu stuffs, manga series I'm not into anymore, that sort of thing. [62] How much do you spend on your doll a month? What is the maximum you would spend? If I had the type of income to spend every on that every month, I could say. I don't however so I spend when I have it and it takes me a long ass time to have it sometimes. Other times I'm doing good and can blow cash like nobody's business. [63] Have you purchased something you regretted later? Yeah, that damned Yen. DOD's pictures lie and I'll never buy a doll from them again. Also I kind of regret starting the recent Fer trend [it's not pretentious, it's flat out fact. Fers in colors other than black and white are available because of Fuan. Well Fuan and Jen working with Dollheart to get me one that is -heh]. Seriously, all I'd wanted was a Fer for Fuan and the explosion that happened because of it puts me a bit off. TO. MANY. FUCKING. FERS Dx [64] Do you like buying clothing sets for your doll? Yep, when I have the cash. [65] How often do you change your dolls clothing? Every 2 or 3 days or so, depending on who it is. [66] If you could take your doll anywhere with you in the world, where would that be? Virginia [done it and will continue to do it when I travel], prolly NC at some point. Japan would be nice, maybe Victoria B.C. [67] Have you ever done something to your SD and felt bad about it? (eg. leaving her naked all night, dropping her) Yeah... there's been a few things here and there over the years, recently it was cutting Jenova's elastics too short to restring him. It's been fixed thanks to both Syrinxfox and Jen though. [68] What paint brand do you use on your doll? Pastels, watercolor pencils, um... Mr. Color. I think that's it. [69] If you were stranded on a deserted island with your doll, what 3 things would you want for your doll to have? Me, My Husband and My daughter. [70] Does your doll have a girlfriend/boyfriend? Yes. Jenova's with both Fuan and Syrinxfox's Aki. Jun's with Evphaedrielle's Zeph. Fuan is with both Jenova and Brightfires' Tien Jen. Fanuel is with Brightfires' Kessari. Saiyuri is with JL_Anderson's Two. Samara [teen] is with Syrinxfox's Sen. Lan is starting with Evphaedrielle's Sashi [it's not official yet, but they are getting there... slowly -haha]. Uriel would technically be in a relationship with Gabriel, but that's story only considering Gabriel will prolly never see resin form. Until then, he'll be with Syrinxfox's version of my Uzziel [and really, I could call this resin time the period that Uzziel bartered him from the gates of Hell and they were together, long before Gabriel got reborn and Uriel left to find her] [71] Does your doll have siblings (eg. brother/sister)? Yes. Megumi and Kazuya are blood brother and sister. Jun is their adopted brother. Jenova's only living relative is Persephone [but only due to her getting some of his genetics not due to him procreating because he can't unless Hesue and Io get together liek they did and create him a son]. Fuan and Fanuel are twins. Hesue has an Other [Io] who is actually just one half of a whole being. They both have fractured pieces of themselves they refer to as daughters -one being Saiyuri [Hesue's fractured piece] and the other being Megumi [Io's fractured piece before she became human] so that makes Megumi and Saiyuri twins by default. Tech. speaking, Hesue is Jenova's daddy [since he created the body Jenova resides in]. Lan was an only child as far as I know and Samara is also an only child. [72] Will you pierce your doll's ears? Already did to some of them. Fuan has one set on each side. Fanuel has 4 on the right side. Saiyuri has one set and might get another eventually. Samara will get one set. George might get one on one of her ears. By year 35 Jun gets his pierced but I won't ever do it in doll form, he's got gay issues enough as it is -haha. [73] Have you given your doll a manicure? What color? Megumi has silver nailpolish. [74] Did you do the esthetic process on your doll? Yep. Megumi's had all seams sanded and she gets coated whenever needed. Jun's been seam sanded and he has a belly tattoo and a piercing. Jenova's had his seams sanded and he's been wired. Like Megumi he gets coated whenever he needs it and he's had his claws modded on by Syrinxfox [She did the base mod there and I'm refining them a bit]. Fuan's been scarred up and seam sanded. Fanuel's been scarred up and seam sanded. Hesue's been seam sanded. Lan is about to be scarred up but it's going to be a major process since his scars cover 90% of his body. Those infamous Fantasy doll nips of his got sanded to look like actual nips and not half done knobs. George has been body blushed, tattooed and scarred. Every one of my crew except Jun has a faceup by me and they've all been hot glue sueded. [75] If so, are you glad you did? Yes. [77] If you could change anything they did with the SD body, what would it be? I'd like to throw the old type SD13 body out the fucking door along with the old type SD10 body because Volks made them for the sole purpose of sitting and they can't pose/stand worth crap. Eventually I'll be replacing Megumi's body with a pureskin since they fixed the joint issues and one of these days, I'm still waffling on trying for a Dollstown body for Jenova since it has the perfect muscle structure he's supposed to have. I'm still going back and forth on that one though and I guess I'll see when I have the cash. [78] Have you sueded and wired your doll? *POINTS TO ABOVE* [god there's alot of repeats in this thing] [79] If your SD could be friends with any other SD, which SD would it be? They are friends with who they want to be friends with already - they don't bother with anyone else for the most part because they all have too much shit going on to get into it or like in Jenova's case, he simply doesn't care. [80] Do you plan to get more SDs in the future? NO D: I can't handle any more than what I have and I can barely handle them. [81] If so, which SDs? I only need bodies now. Samara needs her body, Megumi needs a pureskin, Jenova needs either a new long leg SD13 or a Dollstown, and Uriel needs a bod. [82] Do you change the paint on your SDs often? No No No... [83] Does your SD have a favorite color? Jun's fav color is... wait for it -pink! Bet you didn't see that one coming *snorts* Fuan has a mix of both red and blue. Other than that, they like what they like. [84] In general, what is your SDs mood or look? Megumi is quiet and Broody. Jun is hormonal -lol. Jenova is sleek and smirky. Fuan is generally prissy. Fanuel is constantly pissed off. Hesue is carefree and evil. Saiyuri is bipolar. Lan is both quiet and a bit sad. Samara is bubbly and George is generally annoyed. [85] Describe your SD's favorite outfit. They don't exactly have favs, they just wear what they wear. [86] Does your SD have a formal name? What is it? Megumi and Kazuya's last name is Takashi. They are the only humans in the group and the only ones with last names. Both the Angels and the Demons work on a single name basis. There's no shortening of their first names either save Lan and Samara. Halacie always called Lan 'Key' and the rest of his friends called him 'Lan'. Samara's mom calls her 'Sam' and Jacen calls her 'Mara'. [87] Do you have an colored wigs for you SDs? (green or pink) Which ones? Jun's Pink Lemonade wig. [88] What SD would you like to see in the future? Whatever really. [89] If you have more than one SD, do you favor one over the others? Yes and no. And for all sorts of reasons that I don't feel like going into. [90] Is your SD for display only? No. I 'play' with all of my dolls. [91] Do you have any brand name clothing for your SDs? Volks, Luts, Ajumapama, Dollheart, Dream of Doll, Heise and Mio. There might be more, but I can't think on it atm. [92] Is there any SDs you regret not buying? Nope. [93] Do any of your friends own SDs? Yes, because most of my friends these days are involved in the hobby as well. [94] Do you have SD get togethers? Yep, it happens less these days than it did in the past it seems, but that's the price of adult life - we get busy. [95] Have you lied about the true cost of your SD to your family or friends? Not exactly lied, but it took me a while to admit to the hubby just how much Jenova cost back when he was still iffy over the prices. It wouldn't have stopped me from buying him, but I didn't want to deal with the dramus either so I just didn't tell him. [96] Do you think of yourself as being obsessive about your SD? If so, explain? Very. There is not one day that I'm not thinking on my dolls, their characters or what they've been doing in rp. Yes, I know I have no life and I'm good with it. They make me happy, what they do makes me happy and who they are with makes me happy. I paid good money for them, worked my ass off to get every single one and so I have a right to be obsessive about them if I want. It doesn't effect my real life and it's my hobby to indulge in, tt's the joy of being an adult and if people don't like it they can fuck the hell off. [97] If the house was on fire, what would you grab first? Your SD, wallet, clothes or no time and save yourself? I would throw my daughter over my shoulder, stuff every doll into a bag, grab the snakes and stuff them into their waiting carrier bags [yes, I've thought on fire situations alot and I have backups], throw Mr. Coffie into his gay house bag and drag my husband out by the foot or die trying. We all go together or we all die together, that's my plan. [98] Did you buy a digital camera only because you wanted to take pictures of your SD to show off online? Yes but not exactly to show them off to others, moreso just so I could have records of them like the nerd I am. [99] If you passed on, who gets your SD? wife/husband/kids/best friend/no one...it goes with me! Explain why! The picking order is as such -> If Hubby outlives me, he gets them first - Selene next with stipulations for specifics as follows...
Syrinxfox is getting Jenova, Hesue, teen!Samara, George and Uriel [because the head belongs to her anyway]. Anyone that violates that part of my Will, will be faced with one pissed off Nezu ghost haunting the crap out of them until the end of time. I'm not kidding, I will come back and make your lives hell D:< Why? For obvious reasons. I love them and it's only right that certain of them should go to certain peeps because of it. [100] Do you think you'll ever tire of your SD? Why/Why not? Never. How could I tire of them ? I don't understand how people can, really.
