[this question is stupid and she's not playing along anymore :T]

when you look into the sun and realize that the light from it is from a far away star hurtling through the cold vastness of space and compared to that you're an insignificant speck of dust to the cosmos much less greater powers that may have shaped our reality, how do you feel?



[stopped paying attention halfway through the question and is now picking her nose]

do you have any questions for your parents/god/teachers?

Pandora doesn't talk a lot so a lot of how she communicates is conveyed through body language, especially facial expression, which is why I answered in comment/RP style with icons and everything.

One thing that's not obvious but which guides how she answers things is the fact that she's only existed for a couple months. A lot of what Pandora's been exposed to and has learned from has mostly teenagers. Things outside of that sphere, like the future and regrets, are things she won't talk about because it hasn't really come up as an important thing in her radar and so she has little to say on those topics. And, since she's still learning ~the ways of the world~ her social graces are not great, plus she's contrary and stubborn, so she's perfectly okay ignoring people when she doesn't wanna do a thing, like answer a dumb question.

The "describe an event" question gets kind of a weird answer but it's a call back to an event in her canon that help her deal with a low-key existential crisis over being a "normal" girl. It was a big deal that it made her change her behavior in a major way but she doesn't feel the need to explain it in a way that's comprehensible to other people. It's not really dishonesty, just a different communication priority.

Parents/family are especially weird topics for her because of the aforementioned creator situation. The pair of them still navigating their relationship as her creator is somewhat overprotective and anxious to be a Good Creator but Pandora is also increasingly independent and doesn't care or need to be protected, really. She probably does have some questions for him, especially about his own weird parent situation, but that's not a thing she would talk about openly.
