If you were forced to choose between saving the life of a friend or the lives in a city, which would you choose to save and why?

My friend. I am too stubborn to consider any other option no matter the cost.
The city. Though I would be reluctant to go against my friend, one death is nothing in the face of millions.
My friend. You must always do whatever it takes to protect those you love.
The city. It seems like the right thing to do.

Something bad has happened in your life, but you can't miss school/work. How do you handle it?

I'll probably be an emotional wreck. People will ask me "what's wrong?" all day.
Well, I have a responsibility to do my duties, so they come first; I'll suck it up and do what's expected of me even if
I'm dwelling on it.
I might be more reserved than usual, but I can box it away and focus on my duties.
I'll try really hard, but I might take it out on my classmates/co-workers.

What is your dream home like?

Utilitarian. If it exists in the house, it has a use, and the decoration is minimalist.
Beautiful. The décor is dramatic and evokes feeling, maybe modeled after a theme I love from a story or a period in
history, and the place has a classic feel to it.
Fun. It's designed with entertainment in mind; it might have a pool, a well-stocked bar, a great entertainment
center, and plenty of room to have gatherings.
Comfortable. The beds and couches are cozy; the kitchen gets used for home-cooked meals; the décor is tailored to
taste.
