A twist on an old meme--ask the mun!

[buongiornodaisy.livejournal.com]

We have the ask the pups anything meme. But, maybe one of you out there has always had a burning question to ask another player. How do they approach their writing? Why do they choose the characters they do? What's their favorite thread? Here's your chance to ask! I'll respond first with all my characters; if you have a question for me or anyone who responds to this post with a list of their characters, fire away! Just remember to keep it nice. :)
