On Tue, 23 Aug 16 22:43:06 UTC Emperor Aisel Fei Shiang (18) answered the Proust Questionnaire (click on a question to read other answers):

What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery?
Failure, specifically - failing to grant my wish, failing in my duty as a star guardian, failing to protect my human, being a failure, being wrong any time, ever. Oh, and having to admit I was wrong after being wrong. Yeah, all of that.
Where would you like to live?
That's a silly question. Stars don't choose where they live, so I see no point in talking about hypotheticals.
What is your idea of earthly happiness?
I guess I've never really had to consider my own happiness. Granting wishes is my function, but beyond that I suppose I'd like to be a respected guardian one day.
To what faults do you feel most indulgent?
I worry I'm becoming too attached and too involved in the realm below. Doubting and questioning. I don't try to bend the rules, but it happens, or rather it happens to me because everything that is awful happens to me.
Who are your favorite heroes of fiction?
The kind who are strong, capable, and fierce leaders. So basically the opposite of me. -_-
