Interviewing Gavin, from Forbidden Love.

Hello!  Today I am having an interview with Gavin.
Gavin.  Knight of Simeth.
Here goes nothing!

Abri:
Hello all. I am here with Katelyn interviewing Gavin from Forbidden Love. Katelyn is going to be asking the questions for this one, and I will be putting tid bits in here and there.

Katelyn:
Hello, Gavin! How are you today?

Gavin:
Fine.

Abri:
Gavin, can you put in a tiny bit more than that?

Katelyn:
A man of little words. Lovely. . .

Gavin:
Humph! Very fine!

Katelyn:
*cough* That's wonderful. What exactly do you do in the story?

Gavin:
Do?

Katelyn:
Yeah, you know. What role do you play and how important are you?

Gavin:
I had a mission. I was doing that mission when I met Alianor. Then things started to become bad, for the people that had assigned me that mission found out what Alianor was trying to do. It became very bad.

Abri:
She asked you how important you where. Not the whole story line.

Gavin:
I gave her more than she had asked for.

Katelyn:
*snicker* Yeah, but this is good too. Okay, so . . . what did you think of Adelaide when you first . . . no, when you met her officially?

Gavin:
Which time was it official? The first time I met her, I did what I was told and held on to her.

Katelyn:
Well, like, when you met her and exchanged names or whatever it was that you did.

Gavin:
When we came to names, Alianor was right there introducing me.

Katelyn:
Oh, I see. Well, what did you think of Ali?

Gavin:
Ahem. Next question?

Abri:
Gavin! You have to answer it!

Katelyn:
This will be a good explanation.

Gavin:
I do not like to share any of my feelings with people I do not trust. And, as I understand, many people will be reading this.

Katelyn:
Um . . . we'll make sure only people we trust will read it. And you trust us, right?

Abri:
*Coughs* Actually, anyone can read it. It's an open blog.
Gavin:
See! I am not an open man.

Katelyn:
Too bad! You better start getting open. I've tortured my last interviewees, so don't think I won't hesitate to--

Abri:
KITTEN! Ahem. PLEASE answer it, Gavin.

Katelyn:
Ahem . . . . yes, you better. *glare*

Abri:
*Leans over to whisper to Kitten* Katelyn! Stop trying to scare him! You. Will. Not. Succeed.
Gavin:
Fine. I thought she was a nice looking young maiden. There. Are you satisfied with that, Miss Shear?

Katelyn:
*grin* Yes, I am. *whispers to Abri* Apparently SOMETHING worked. *To Gavin* So, you didn't mind her temper?

Abri:
Katelyn. Don't go there. I know Gavin better than you do.

Gavin:
I would prefer to stop talking about feelings, especially mine.

Katelyn:
Fine, fine. Abri, you ask him a question now.

Abri:
Me? But, I thought I was just supposed to be watching?

Katelyn:
Sure, but that doesn't mean you can't ask a question or two.

Abri:
Okay. Gavin. What did you think you would do when Alianor first asked you not to send secrets to your country?
Gavin:
I decided to think about it. And . . . and pray. She told me about praying, and about God and all. *Blushes, feeling awkward talking about Ali*

Katelyn:
Isn't this about feelings?

Abri:
Um . . . sort of. Well, I asked him what he thought he would do. Not why he liked a girl. He himself changed the subject to Ali.

Gavin:
Never mind. Next question?

Abri:
Kitten. That's you.

Katelyn:
Um . . . . How did you become involved with your . . . mission?

Gavin:
Pardon?

Abri:
She means why did they ask you to be the one to give them messages. You do mean that, right, Kitten?

Katelyn:
*shrug* I think that's what I mean.

Gavin:
I am one of the best knights, but not only that, I am very secretive (As I am sure you have figured by now.) I was the perfect spy.

Katelyn:
Yeah, we've noticed. So . . . when did you decide to . . . stop?

Gavin:
What do you mean?
Abri:
I have a question, can I ask it?

Katelyn:
Shoot away! He doesn't understand my questions.

Abri:
Drat. I lost it. Never mind.

Katelyn:
ABRI!!! Fine. Gavin, do you have any family? Like siblings and stuff?

Gavin:
That I cannot answer.

Katelyn:
Why not?

Gavin:
I prefer to keep my personal life out of this. Do you have another question?
Abri:
Gavin! The book is about your "Personal life!" You can't keep yourself in the dark and out of sight any longer.
Gavin:
The book is not about my personal life, it is about a series of events that happened in and around the kingdom of Araoma. I just happen to be in it.

Katelyn:
Good grief, dude, you're one of the MMC's!!!

Gavin:
MMC's? What is that? Or what are they? Abri. Have you ever heard of the MMC's? . . . Abri? Where are you?
A few minutes later . . .

Abri:
*Comes running in* Sorry! Little brother stole my science book to make me get off. Where were we?

Gavin:
Have you ever heard of the MMC's, Abri?

Abri:
Nope. What are they?

Katelyn:
Male Main Character.

Abri:
Oh, yeah! I can't believe I forgot that.

Gavin:
Ah. I see.

Abri:
Hold on. Let me see what you said while I was gone . . . yeah, Gavin! People are going to learn about you and get to know you.

Katelyn:
Yeah.

Gavin:
Then let them, but I have no intention of sharing my feelings outright. They may get my feelings wrong if they read the book, and that I am all right with.
Abri:
*Facepalm* Katelyn, we aren't going anywhere. How 'bout another question?

Katelyn:
We shall wring your feelings from you if it's the last thing we do . . . ahem, anyway, what do you think of the questions so far?

Abri:
Oh, BTW Gavin. I <3 the surfer-boy hair cut.

Gavin:
Excuse me?

Katelyn:
Is this really the time, Abri? *rolls eyes*

Abri:
Sorry. That WAS kind of random. It just came out. Maybe I should've said that in private to you, Gavin.

Gavin:
*Ignoring Abri* Oh. I am not sure. What should I think of them?

Katelyn:
Just tell the truth. Okay. I'll ask another one. So, what is a question that you would want to be asked during this interview?

Abri:
Me or him?

Katelyn:
The DARLING interviewee.

Gavin:
Ask me about anything. I will decide if I want to answer it.

Katelyn:
*scowl* That's not much help.

Abri:
Ask him something about Rowyn. We haven't done that.

Katelyn:
Right. What do you think of Rowyn?

Abri:
Nice. Very creative.

Gavin:
He is a prince. I don't care much for princes. I don't even care to think about them.

Katelyn:
Hush, Abri. You probably drilled that into his head. I remember how much you were set against having Gavin as a Prince. Now, if he were not a prince, what would you think of him? As a person?

Gavin:
I am not prejudice against him, as she. I just do not care for him. I never took the time to think about him as a person.

Katelyn:
Well, start thinking.

Gavin:
*Blinks and says nothing*

A few minutes later . . .

Katelyn:
Abri, please tell your little minion to speak. How can one have an interview with one that says nothing??!?

Gavin:
Her little minion?
Abri:
My little minion? Listen. You told him to start thinking. So, he is!!!

Katelyn:
He's apparently biased since his creator dislikes princes!!!! Ahem. So, Gavin, what have you to say?

Abri:
His creator?
Gavin:
About what?

Abri:
Oh. Me. *Blushes*

Katelyn:
I was hoping you'd get that. *smirk* Gavin, what do you think of Rowyn as a person? You've had plenty time to think.

Gavin:
That was not plenty of time! I know him not as a person. I never exactly spent quality time with him.

Abri:
We should probably finish this soon. Two more questions. This is probably the least organized interview I've done yet.

Katelyn:
But . . . but, you two are like . . . brother-in-laws now! What is your job/work force exactly?

Abri:
Brother-in-laws? Ali and I are not sisters, you know.

Gavin:
I am a knight. Have the people of today forgotten what knights are?

Katelyn:
Of course I know what a knight is. Abri, I thought you said he wasn't a knight? And what are you talking about? I meant Rowyn and Gavin are brother-in-laws!

Abri:
Oh! You're talking about Rowyn! I don't remember telling you he wasn't a knight? Anyway. One more question.

Katelyn:
Um . . . what did you think of this interview?

Gavin:
I do not think it was very interesting.

Abri:
Well, thanks.

Gavin:
It is my honest opinion.

Katelyn:
*eyeroll* You should try interviewing a guy who doesn't want to talk.

Abri:
Yeah, Gavin!!!!

Katelyn:
*scowls at Gavin*

Gavin:
Thank you for this interview. Good day, ladies. *Stands up and walks away*

Katelyn:
Goodbye, Mr. Guy-who-doesn't-talk.

Abri:
Uh . . . Katelyn. He just left. He didn't hear that. Goodbye, all! *Stands up and also walks out the door*

Katelyn:
;-)

 And that was interviewing Gavin.  As you can see, he is a very hard person to interview.  Well, I hope you liked it!
