havefuncarolina asked: 7, 8, and 9. :)

7: Would you rather die by being trapped under ice in a lake or river, or trapped in a burning room?

Ugh, tough one. Probably the under ice in a lake one, because I REALLY hate fire. And both are kind of ridiculously terrible ways to go.

8: If you could play God for a day, would you? What would you do?

I would, but I’d be a complete trickster god for a day. Because they have the most fun, definitely. They’re not moral, but since when are gods moral by any of our standards? They’re just…hilarious, in that horrifying way. And I love trickster lore. So much. Anansi, Loki, the jackal, they’re all so damn INTERESTING.

9: This one’s a classic: you’re standing in a subway tunnel. Ahead, the tracks split. A train is headed down the left-hand path upon which are standing 5 strangers. A lever in front of you would divert the train onto the right-hand path where 1 stranger is standing. There is no time to warn anyone verbally or otherwise. You have only seconds to act. Do you divert the train? (pay close attention to the difference between passivity and activity here)

Divert the train. I don’t believe in fate or a higher power, so all I have is the here and now, and here and now, I think I’d make a call and save as many people as I possibly could.
