Nobody
Something you're looking forward to in the upcoming months
Nothing. Sigh. I need to plan to do something interesting.
Something of which you are deathly afraid
Loneliness.

Yes.

Not really

Only in small doses, or when converted to Black Pudding

Yup.

Nope.

Yes.
Do you believe in Gods?
Are we talking anthropomorphic deity, spirits of the elements, guiding intelligence, or what? I believe there's some fundamental design to the universe, and a sort of generally benevolent guiding force. I also think that this force is remarkable good at maths.
