1. What hobbies do you have? Mostly reading. I work in a bookstore now, so I'm pretty much in heaven there.
2. Who is your closest mundane friend? Describe them and how you relate to them. Other than Jeremy, it's honestly becoming Pat. I know, weird, right? Still, he's the person around that I've known for the longest, and, well, I don't know! It just seems to work. He's with the love of his life, and we get along great, so it just works out like that. I really can't explain it.
3. Who is your worst mundane enemy? Describe them and why you don't get along. If I *had* an enemy, it would be Skylar, because I wish ruin upon her head. She slept with *my* husband, and then cheated on the 'love of her life' and nearly destroyed her. Skylar is a breaker of hearts sent by the devil itself, if she's not the devil herself.
4. What bands do you like? Do you even pay attention? You mean *other* than Broken Sunrise? I'm a huge fan of Iron Maiden. Bruce even lent me his name!
5. What tape or CD hasn't left your player since your purchased it? Why? Broken Sunrise's debut CD. Why? Because it's awesome. Do I need another reason?
6. What song is "your song?" Why? I don't really have 'my song.' That would be picking just one song.
7. What's been your favorite movie of all time? Casablanca
8. Read any good books? What were they? Last thing I read was "Carrie" by Stephen King. Pretty good. I read a ton, though.
9. What do you watch on the Television? HGTV a lot.
10. When it comes to mundane politics, do you care? If so, which way do you tend to vote? If not, why don't you care? I've actually never voted. College student for a long time, and well, dead for a lot, too.

1. What would your character kill for? What would they die for? She would kill for her family and Jeremy if someone was threatening them. She'd die to protect them.
2. What would they refuse to do under any circumstances? Why? Cheat on anyone. Got done to her. She saw what it's done to others. Way wrong for words.
3. What do they dream about? Having a family.
4. What’s their biggest fear? Dying, again.
5. What single object would they be most hard pressed to part with? Why? The photos of her family that she has. For the longest time, it was all that she had of them. That and her memories.
6. What is their fondest memory? Not an exact memory per say, but knowing that Jeremy cared so much about her that he brought her back to life by giving up something of great value to him.
7. What is their worst memory? A tie, actually. Dying, and dying knowing that Pat loved someone more than her.
8. What or who was were their most significant influence? Expound. Probably her mother. She adores the woman and looks up to her as a role model. She thinks that she was a great parent and couldn't have done more for her.
9. What do they believe makes a successful life? Having people that love you.
10. What makes them laugh? Jeremy's jokes.
11. What are their religious views? She's really not sure. Even though she was dead, she thinks that she had always been stuck in some sort of limbo. She doesn't remember a heaven or a hell. So, confusion there.
12. What is their greatest strength? Skylar aside, she tries to see good in everyone. Skylar just proved time and time again that she wasn't good, in Iris's opinion.
13. Do they have a fatal flaw? If so, what is it? Between crippling fears of all sorts of death and her massive ability to hold a grudge? I think those tie as her most fatal flaw.
14. Who is the most important person in their life? Right now, Jeremy.
15. If they died, who would miss them most? How would they die? You mean again? Hopefully not from a vampire bite! I'm sure that Jeremy, her family now that they know that she's alive again, and her friends would all miss her terribly.

1. What is your real, birth name? What name do you use? Any nicknames? If so, where did you get it? Well, my real name is Iris Olivia Phillips. When I got married, it became McConnell. Well, after I died and got raised from the dead, I had to get a new last name. Jeremy helped me pick Dickinson, like the singer for Iron Maiden.
2. How do you dress most of the time? A tight t-shirt and jeans. Cute and comfy.
3. How do you "dress up" and "dress down? I'll usually wear a dress to dress up, and just cotton shorts and a t-shirt when I'm dressing down.
4. What do you wear when you go to sleep? Underwear? It changes every night, honestly. I do own pajamas, too, though.
5. Do you wear any jewelry? Random pieces at random times, but nothing every day.
6. In your opinion, what is your best feature? My eyes, or maybe my lips.
7. What's your real birth date? November 14
8. Where do you live? Describe it: Is it messy, neat, avant-garde, sparse, etc.? I live in a house with Jeremy which, coincidentally or not, I used to share with my ex-husband. Most of the decorating is his, but it's a lot of stuff that he brought over from England, including lots of metal posters. Can't really argue with it.
9. Do you own a car? Describe it. I don't. I just use Jeremy's.
10. What is your most prized mundane possession? Why do you value it so much? Pictures of my family. Until very recently, that was all I had of them. I finally got off my ass and called them, though.

1. What was your family like? Typical southern family? I don't know. They're actually pretty normal. Well, there's the telekinetic thing, but other than that, completely normal.
2. Who was your father, and what was he like? James Phillips, ex-University of Texas (Go Longhorns!) footballer and current car salesman. King of the corny jokes and bad one liners.
3. Who was your mother, and what was she like? Mary Allen Phillips, English teacher and mother of four. I totally think that's a second job.
4. What was your parents marriage like? Were they married? Did they remain married? Been married for eight hundred years. I actually don't know how long they've been married. Isn't that terrible? My brother is 30, and he was born after they got married (by a whole two months, but whatever), so let's go with thirty years. They have a marriage that I wish to have one day. Cutesy and nauseating and horrifying to kids.
5. What were your siblings names? What were they like? Andrew, 30, Bryan, 28, and Salvador, 25. Andrew and Bryan played football at UT, too, so they were basically typical jocks, but Sal is a bit of nerd like me. Book nerd, not weird nerd, though.
6. What's the worst thing one of your siblings ever did to you? What's the worst thing you've done to one of your siblings? My siblings were actually good to me. They liked to scare off dates, but that's really it. I was always too little to do much to them.
7. When's the last time you saw any member of your family? Where are they now? Well, the last time I saw them was at my wedding to Pat. Before I died. I'm dragging my ass about calling them, but I will do it soon. I think they'll really like Jeremy.
8. Did you ever meet any other family members? Who were they? What did you think of them? My grandmother was a telekinetic like me, but she was so much better at it. My family's huge, and I know all of them, but that's an actual tidbit about me, I guess. My family in general is awesome, though.
