Workshop Three - Day Three Exercise

Name of Kalon: Bambi
Link to Kalon: <3
Besides their best friend, who else is your kalon friends with? Bambi's friends with two kalons named Adina and Stephanie.
What qualities does your kalon look for in a friend? Bambi's perfect dreamed up friend would be considerate, helpful and strong, and could bring out the kind side of everyone that they meet, as well as avoid conflict since nobody can bring themselves​ to harm them; so they'd also be very sweet and a generally nice person. Of course, if this person existed they would totally be her idol and she could never live up to such a kalon, and it wouldn't even come to her mind to expect such things of any of her friends: let them be who they are, she loves them the most that way. All she really requires of somebody for them to become her friend is that they do not wish to particularly harm anyone; however she may befriend somebody that seems to be a good person to her even though they intentionally harm others.
What qualities does your kalon dislike in a friend? She doesn't dislike anything except if said kalon doesn't trust of believe her, or if they truly hurt her feelings (and to do so you have to be really horrible to her). If it's a quality, Bambi's totally fine with it, since qualities are, as she says, always used in good will.
Would they risk their life to save a friend? A stranger? If Bambi thinks she's capable of doing so, Bambi'll do so, whether she knows the kalon or not, although she'll put friends' needs before others unless they seem more in need. She definitely doesn't value her life above that of others, and usually puts their needs before hers; so, basically, yes.
Is it easy or hard to earn their trust? Why? Unless you harm her friends before going to speak to her, earning Bambi's trust is pretty easy.

Kalon Name: Dominque

Prompt: Thats the thing. Dominque doesn't really have a best friend. Oh sure, she has a few friends, but none of them know her well enough. Dominque doesn't care, she is just happy the way she is. Perhaps her best friend is indeed herself.

Workshop Three - Writing Prompt

Kalon Name:

Flynn McDoogull

> Link <

Prompt:

Write about your Kalon's relationship with their best friend

Haruka is one of Flynns dear friends because he actually cares to check in on him every so often. They met at the cafe Haruka works at because Flynn was a constant regular and they just eventually became close. Their relationship is a bit rocky because Haru seems to put more effort into it then Flynn does. They both have a weakness for sweets and have a strong bond when there is something related to sweets and special events. Somehow Haru puts up with Flynn's childish personality enabling Flynn to have someone close that won't yell at him. You wouldn't think their personality would mesh very well at first because Haru is so social and Flynn isn't but somehow they seem to perfectly suit each other as friends.

Besides their best friend, who else is your kalon friends with?

Flynn isn't very social so he doesn't have many other friends. There is one girl he knows that sometimes bakes things with him.

What qualities does your kalon look for in a friend?

Most of all Flynn likes others who plan things out instead of jumping straight into something. He really likes to know where they are going before being dragged around anywhere. There must also be a level of trust built up between them. He likes friends that lead the conversation so he doesn't have to add in too much.

What qualities does your kalon dislike in a friend?

Overly touchy kalons freak him out. He absolutely hates being touched without proper warning. Friends that are spontaneous are not a good match for him... Others that touch or take food off of their friends plates are not okay.

Would they risk their life to save a friend? A stranger?

Unfortunately Flynn is rather childish and probably would panic before thinking to save anyone. Unless they had a very large significance to him like a Mate or Child.

Is it easy or hard to earn their trust? Why?

Hard, It takes time. In Flynn's past he has been around a lot of others who ended their relationship suddenly on a low note. He is still sensitive about a lot of things so often keeps his thoughts in his head rather than speaking out.

Name of Kalon: Handel
Link to Kalon: Handel
Besides their best friend, who else is your kalon friends with?

Even though Joseph is his best friend, Handel's other best friend has to be Omari - they would, in fact, be much closer, but Omari travels a lot so for the most part they write to each other.

What qualities does your kalon look for in a friend?

Handel will try to befriend anyone his superstitions tell him would be good company, but, besides the signs he reads into, he really likes people who seem relaxed and light about things. Not that he cannot be friends with a pessimist, but he likes to be around those who are more positive. Honesty is a great factor too, or just fun and tea loving!

What qualities does your kalon dislike in a friend?

Handel often tries to avoid those who seem to all to easily get into arguments or are impulsively rude. He's willing to be kind and friendly to anyone, but dislikes confrontation and can be a bit sensitive.

Would they risk their life to save a friend? A stranger?

Handel is more likely to risk his life for a friend than a stranger, although he can be a bit cowardly at times, he'll do his best to help others.

Is it easy or hard to earn their trust? Why?

It depends. Handel often has problems trusting new people until the signs are right, according to him. But if the signs are right from the beginning, regardless of if you are trustworthy or not, he will trust you well enough.

Kalon Name: Bambi
Link to Kalon: .xXx.
Prompt: Well, the thing is, Bambi doesn't have a best friend... which, considering the fact that she's a nice kalon that loves spending time with others and is very sociable, doesn't really seem right to me...? Really, she's working hard, but still has time to have a little fun and do things she enjoys every now and then, and after saving up for a few years, she could afford to stop working for a while to take a well-earned break... during which she will be able to, hopefully, make tons of friends. And now, lazy me must actually start pming the large number of people that post on the kalon fanclub looking for relationships for their kalons and actually get Bambi's life in my ownership started!

Kalon Name: Lera
Link to Kalon: here

Besides their best friend, who else is your kalon friends with?
She's met quite a few friends on her travels! Chevonne and Arthur are two of them - Arthur she probably corresponds with more, just because she likes Chevonne but with a shared interest in books, Arthur has more in common with her.
She also has internet buddies - Eternity (another book pal!) and Nemo (memes for days) among them. While traveling, she can't keep up with them as much as she used to (it's dropped down to the amount of time when she corresponds with everyone else, where it used to be a good 80% of each of her days being hooked up to the internet) but she's still always very happy to talk with them.
On top of that, she's got a few childhood friends and acquaintances. Amaryllis is one of those childhood friends, though Lera unfortunately doesn't keep up with her as well as she does college buddies (like Cora). There was also this one weird dude who lives in the cemetery in one of her childhood towns; on a whim, when something in her travels reminded her of Mariah, Lera decided to write him a letter. That might turn into its own friendship!

What qualities does your kalon look for in a friend?
Someone up for an adventure is great! But even if you're not, if you're kind or share an interest with her (like mysteries or DDR), she's usually happy to be friends. She likes loyalty, she greatly admires anyone hardworking even if she doesn't have that quality herself... she appreciates anyone who's willing to take on a challenge over and over until they beat it, even if it's only out of spite.

What qualities does your kalon dislike in a friend?
Downer people (she doesn't mind if someone gets sad or discouraged sometimes - she gets that! But if you're like that all the time,
constantly, she's not very good at dealing with it), scaredy-cats (as described by her), people who say one thing and do another (she will absolutely call you out on that, and be pretty embarrassed if she accidentally does the same thing herself and is called out in return), people who are mean intentionally for the sake of it... the rest of the list from here is honestly pretty average.

Would they risk their life to save a friend? A stranger?
She'd definitely do the first. For all her faults, Lera is pretty loyal. The latter... would depend on the context? If she didn't have context, just got thrown into the situation, she'd honestly probably freeze up - not out of fear, necessarily, just out of plain outright shock. This kind of situation doesn't normally happen to people.

Is it easy or hard to earn their trust? Why?
Honestly? ...not super hard. At this moment in time, Lera doesn't often suspect bad intentions.
That's not to say she'll trust you with her deepest fears and secrets straight off the bat - that would take time a lot of it. But that's not even because she doesn't trust people, exactly, she's just... really, really uncomfortable talking about that kind of thing. Or thinking about it.
As far as more mundane things go, she leans on the side of trust. She does remember if someone breaks her trust, and it's very hard to get her to give you the benefit of doubt again, but people she's only just started to know? They get a free pass until/unless they screw up.

Workshop Three - Writing Prompt
Kalon Name: Katyo
Link to Kalon: here



Prompt:

Katyo has a hard time naming any particular friends as best - he likes them all for different reasons! But Orwell is definitely one of the closer ones. Their friendship bloomed over history class first; Orwell has a lot of really strong opinions about history, his intercessions in class made Katyo a lot more interested and got the kit to start studying more on his own just to argue back, and, well... it escalated from there.

Escalated, in this case, meaning they started to overrun entire classes with their debates; the teacher can't get a handle on them, the other students just sigh and sit back and start getting distracted doodling in their notebooks because they know nothing else useful is going to happen for the rest of the period... (Some of the smart ones pay attention and maybe get a really obscure question on the next quiz right.)

Eventually, when their debates got to the point of shouting at each other across the halls when they were going to their next classes, because they were out of talking range - they started to hang out together. Orwell isn't super talkative outside of history topics, but that's okay; Katyo makes up for it. He's good at friendly chatter. They have study sessions in which they probably get distracted and watch history shows together instead.

Orwell is also a bit of a target for bullies, and Katyo gets very protective of him. He tries to be around to bait them off and get them to leave, but he can't always be there... As a result, Orwell is one of the few people he'd break his current rule of "no harmful pranks" for. If those bullies push too much, they are going to get it. (And then Katyo is probably going to get it in return. He can be smart, but nobody ever said he was wise...)
