Alright, you beautiful degenerates, here's my catching up with all the missed Kitty Questions of the Day!
@KaityCat , @Hexborn_Magus , @LizBell - Thank you all for doing these. They've been a really fun addition to the thread and I'm sorry I've missed so many. I know all three of you would say it's fine, but still.. <3
Absolutely, kitten. You know it. I'm so very happy you're back.

Outside of the obvious answer being the thing I am blessed to come home to every day, the next answer would be this community and especially certain members of it. I've said it before and I'll say it many times more, this community is amazing and it brightens my days to come home, spend time with my family and then relax being a part of this second family as well.
Honestly, I don't really see myself in a very positive light. I never have, so if it's okay with you Kitten - I am going to hand this one over to my wife. Here's her answer: "His kindness. He is like an overwhelming shadow that wants to hold you instead of suffocate you, and chase the other shadows away. Physically, his eyes are what I love most; he speaks through them more than anything else."
I hope people are ready for the
if you could be any animal what would it be?
and good morning @LizBell
Hmm.. well, I'll answer this in a few ways since "animal" can be a bit vague.
If we can include any fantastical creature?
A dragon. I've loved them since I was a boy and if I could be any creature at all - that would be it.
If we can't include fantastical creatures?
A raven. "Old Raven" is one of my nicknames IRL because of how I look and dress, combined with people knowing I've always loved crows and ravens.
a few hours earlier than usual but here we are!
if you could become anyone for a day, who would it be?
I'll probably be back Monday to find the answers
so send me headpats n cuddles!
Take care of yourself, you're worth it
I mentioned in a previous answer that I may mention my first daughter in one of your earlier QOTD's and this is the one.
If I could be anyone for a day, I would want to be my first daughter.
She was a gift to me by the ex prior to my wife. At that time, my wife and I lived in separate states and hadn't spoken in years but not by choice. I've had feelings for my wife ever since we were kids and thought I'd never see her again so all of my interactions with women after her were melancholic at best and actively self-destructive at worst. This one started off very self destructive and I should have seen warning signs from the start but I was in a very bad place and this particular ex showed up and seemed very understanding and loving at the time.
We ended up in a relationship which was a rollercoaster to put it mildly and more and more red flags started to show up that something wasn't quite right with her, mentally. (It turned out later, after the attempted stabbing, that she has BPD - Borderline Personality Disorder)
By the time I started seeing the red flags, though, she'd gotten pregnant and I'd already opened up to her about appreciating certain.. Japanese art.. and she seemed accepting.
And then, she had a miscarriage.. and the grief ruined us both but it broke her. I don't know if it just forced the twisted parts of her mind to the surface to be seen or if it was grief and pain that truly broke her but she started blaming me, insinuating that I would have hurt our daughter because I liked this art, and eventually venomously spat out that she was glad our daughter died because she wouldn't want her anywhere near someone "sick" like me. All of this on the same day we learned the news.
I was boiling with rage at her, but all I could do was coldly tell her that anyone that could ever be glad for the death of their child - our little girl - wasn't just a monster but a soulless shell that clearly never felt or could ever feel love, and I walked away and outside - which I usually tried to do in moments like these. Typically after the venom was unleashed, I'd go for a walk or a drive, things would calm in a few hours and we'd get back to some semblance of normality again in a few days.
This time, though, I only got a few steps outside our door - which I slammed HARD which (thankfully) alerted the neighbors - when I heard her scream at me from behind and before I could react she'd already cut me several times before I managed to grab her wrists.
..if I could be anyone, I would want to be my unborn daughter - even if only for a day - so that I could know if she felt happiness at all. Could she hear me singing to her? Did she know I called her my Little Rose? Did she feel any pain..? And if she did.. I'd want to be her for every second of that pain so she would never have to feel it.
I have so many good memories now that I don't think I could ever choose.
So, I suppose I'll just have to say all of them. Even the bad ones, because each and every one of them led me to here, now.
I'd rather relive them all, or none at all, because I wouldn't want to miss any of the other wonderful days.
Because the chicken had a laser pointer.
Well, that depends. Conventional pet or ANY pet?
Because my first ever pet would be something a lot of people wouldn't consider a pet.
My first pet was a golden silk orb weaver. A little surprise gift from some banana crates my family bought for a big family get together for making banana bread.
Little boy Lazarus saw this big spider crawl out, spinning golden silk and was transfixed with wonder. I begged my father to let me take care of it and he reluctantly agreed but she became a part of the family eventually. Even managed to mostly cure my mother of her arachnophobia. She still isn't a fan, but the "phobia" (the fear) is gone. She held Celeste more than once without issue.
Turned out that the "big" spider little boy Lazarus found would get a whole lot bigger over the course of that year!
I missed this one!!!!! -le gasp-
hurray an animal lover! haha what's been your favorite of the "weird" pets?
and it's time for the -drumroll- (I need a Kaity drumroll gif..... help?)
If you could make a new sense (smell, taste, touch, sight, hearing) what would it be?
Hm.. well, given I've lost most of my sense of taste and smell to a botched surgery, I'd love to just get that back.
Outside of that.. I've always wished we could transmit thoughts and/or feelings directly somehow.
