I've always wondered how she and Waldoh got together, although I'm pretty sure I'd heard bits of the story before. :) I also love getting to hear it in her own words -- of course, the desire to write things straight from the mouths of my own characters was why these got turned into interview questions in the first place. ^_^ )) (( Ooh, great to hear from Corise!

May come back and do this for other characters, but for now, here's Corise: 1. If you're attached, how did it happen? (If not, are you interested in dating?) Ooh. Now that's a long story involvin' a love... quadrangle, I guess it'd be, with me in the... center? I ain't sure the geometry quite works out. Anyways. I was datin' a guy who was never around, and sorta flirtin' casual with another guy and a girl... nothin' serious on my end, just passin' time while my boyfriend was off doin' whatever it was he did when he wasn't around. But at some point... well, it stopped bein' casual, for everyone involved, and I had a decision to make. Spent weeks weighin' out my feelin's, tryin' to figure out who I oughtta be with. And then one night, I was talkin' to Waldoh - that was the fella I hadn't been datin' - and somethin' just... switched on, I guess. Dunno how to describe it, but damn... was that ever a night to remember. 2. Have you been "lucky in love" in the past? Depends on how ya define "luck." I've certainly always been blessed by... abundance in my love-life... though that can be more a curse, honest. Havin' three people in love with ya at the same time is not nearly as fun as it sounds. As far as quality... well, remember that boyfriend I mentioned? The one that was never around? Yeah. 'Til I met Waldoh, that was one o' the better relationships I'd had. Draw your own conclusions. 3. What's the number-one thing you need from a potential mate? I could be all glib and say somethin' like stamina in the sack, but honestly? Patience. Lots and lots o' patience. I'm not easy to live with. Believe me, I have a hard enough time livin' with myself sometimes. 4. Is there friction in your relationship? Big, small, none at all? (If you're not in a relationship, how much friction would you like?) Yeah. Y'know how I said I ain't easy to live with? Waldoh's patient, but even he has a breakin' point. For some odd reason, though, no matter how much crap I put him through, he sticks around. Guess that means he's the real deal. Guess it also means my luck's a good sight better now than it used to be. Better'n I deserve, for sure. 5. Do your friends and family like the person you're dating? (If you're not dating anyone, how important is your friends' and family's approval)? Oh, just about everyone likes Waldoh, I reckon. He's a good guy. Hell, if he can put up with me, it's pretty much a given he can get along just fine with my friends and what fam'ly I got left. And he's a real good daddy to our two kids. I think most o' my friends'd tell ya I did right marryin' him... and those who'd tell ya otherwise, well, let's just say it ain't 'cuz o' him, and leave it at that. I like these.
