Draco!!!! I know you have your excuses and saying that you were indeed around and I completely buy there is some verity to that. I just want to explain how it’s hard to feel ok about your merge presence when I can harken back to a time that you were very different. I think that that’s what my issue was, is a change in behavior. That’s what made me never surely trust you with a vote. Despite this, you ARE here and built less mistrust than I did. So my hope for you is that you can convey the reason of why you’re here through your answers. I’ll go over everything you’ve said, but I want you to mention what work you really put in the later hours when you would suddenly come back into the game that you might want people to appreciate more.
Madame Maxime!!!! What a delicious surprise, I hope you do read back! In Pomfrey’s question and answers I do actually talk about this a lot! I did recently start a new job thats been a lot more professional, my gf “Astoria” is in grad school so neither of us are really here until 6.. which is 8 EST. I’d try and be as present as possible while I was online, but I’d have a lot of house work and chores or dinner to make for two and live in an apartment so I have to take my dog outside when she needs it. I do not want to go to a sympathetic vote place, or say I’m winning this for my dad (cause he doesn’t give a fuck about survivor or online survivor for that matter) but he’s taken a turn for the worse… he’s located EST so I’ve spent a lot of my time on the phone with him, I will not deny for a second that I did have a lot of distractions in this game but I didn’t ever waiver from who I was, the connections I built or who I was working with and what I planned to do with said people!
After Newt left, I felt unrightfully personally victimized and a lot of that was directed at you, and I’m really ashamed on how we left things. I was upset and it was because I thought we were pretty clear cut having each other’s backs and felt like you intentionally left me out often when I so desperately loved working with you when things were going well.
I did change my behavior, which I really went in depth with for Pomfrey’s answer but I thought I was emerging in a bad way, clearly… at first I thought I was coming forth as a threat or a potential early merge target and then it became unawareness, which you had a lot to do with, I was left out of the loop and lied to and confused and I was fed up! I decided just to do exactly what I’d like and was best for me and be a little more appreciative and honest. I can see on a presence level, its hard to credit me, but like you said, I managed to build less mistrust, and I ultimately think I built a lot of relationships that took me far and I was able to do it early on and then after becoming more independent, I was looked down upon and able to explore ALL my options because there was no repercussions for me. I understand that we did not leave things on the most positive note during my character’s arc, but it is almost complete, which honestly is a game I’m really proud and hope you are too!
Question for all. Relate each juror to an exhibit in the Louvre. OR paint me like one of your little French girls. OR just beg for my vote. I like to give options.
Please, please, please vote for me Madame Maxime!!!!!! Please!! Think of all the exciting things we'd said we'd do together and how much we can do once I win a million dollars, you've said that you love short men, but imagine how much more fun you'd have with a short RICH man? Please!
Newt: While this piece doesn't remind me of Newt as a person, this reminds me very much of Newt Scamander and Newt Scamander obviously reminds me of him from this game! (If the image doesn't work for you, it is called the Ibex Rhyton from Ancient Persia)
Gilderoy: This piece pretty much summarizes Gilderoy Lockhart in my book!
Angelina: This one is dull, and I hope she'd forgive me but I'm giving Angelina this beautiful and boring piece of art work, she is not boring, but I think a lot of people viewed her as the golden child of the game, I did! So I'm going to say this solid gold piece.
Amos: This one is Amos and I, a pic of the two of us, and I like to imagine myself as the child and Amos as the guy with the worts (No offense) I just think this is an awkward picture and although I enjoy him now, we had an awkward relationship.
Lily: This one is pretty simple, I was born and reared Catholic, although I don't practice very much I still think Mary, Mother of Jesus was one of the best of all time, (second to my mom, Grandma and Pink.) She was very likable and in my opinion very motherly, I don't know if she actually had kids but she did a great job fitting that this season.
Cormac: IDK, I didn't think Cormac was hysterical, he was very down to earth and very serious and straight forward with me. There is also a lot of sensitiveness to this piece behind the eyes. There's something about the piece that does attract me, and Cormac is a different sort of friend but a genuine one, something about that attracts me to it.
Fred: This one is a little plain too unfortunately, but Fred was ALWAYS doing homework or working on something that needed to get done. This girl looks like she's been slaving away and looks like she isn't going to be done anytime soon, but keep working Fred!! That will end one day!
Pomfrey: I chose this one for a few reasons, I immediately thought it was funny... is it just me or both these woman SORT OF resemble Pomfrey? This is the Annunciation, but its like absolutely ridiculous? What are they doing with their hands and why is she wearing all black in front of a red bed? I'm guessing an S&M room. Oh and look! Casually an uncomfortable couch for a bunch of perverts to watch. IDK, despite looking like Pomfrey, this just made me laugh and I wanted to share it with her.
And I didn't forget about you!
I hope this helps with your decision making Maxime!! I loved our time together and am ashamed in our falling out but really hope you can see that I really deserve this win and your vote! If there is anything else I can do for you, let me know!! I enjoyed answering, so thank you! <3
