Getting to Know Julio – Character Tag

Hello, everyone! Happy new year! It’s still January. I can say it! If you haven’t heard yet, On January 10th, the word count on this blog went over one million! As of that date, I had written 1,001,025 words! WOW! I have no idea how to celebrate an achievement like that, so I just wrote more words, hee hee. 😀 I was also tagged by Kymber to do this getting to know a character thingy, so thanks! I skipped the birthday question because I haven’t given most of my characters birth dates. Only Kevin, Juliana, and Jonathan have actual birthdays.

When deciding who to do this with, my first inclination was Mary. I mean, why not? The woman has so many layers, and I love her with all my heart. But, as fun as it would be to see her gush about Reed again, we already know her pretty well. I thought hard about someone you don’t know, and voila! I hope you enjoy getting to know our favorite dapper young man. I’m working really hard to finish the Joneses so I can get back to the Pruetts!! We are extremely close to the end, but I’ll explain about that later. Without further ado, I give you Julio!

► Name? ➔ Julio Corleonesi
► Are you single? ➔ No. I’m sort of engaged. Wait. That sounds bad. What I meant is that I’m in a relationship. We have decided to get married, but I haven’t given her a ring or anything yet.
► Are you happy? ➔ Extremely.
► Are you angry? ➔ Never.
► Are your parents still married? ➔ My dad is dead.

NINE FACTS

► Birth Place? ➔ Newcrest
► Hair Color? ➔ Black
► Eye Color? ➔  Gray
► Mood? ➔  Right now? I’m good, I guess.
► Gender? ➔ Male
► Summer or winter? ➔ Summer, I guess. I can wear more casual clothes and people won’t think differently of me.
► Morning or afternoon? ➔ Afternoon. I have more energy then. But, mornings are nice too.

EIGHT THINGS ABOUT YOUR LOVE LIFE

► Are you in love? ➔ Yeah. Yes, I think so.
► Do you believe in love at first sight? ➔ Sure?
► Who ended your last relationship? ➔ I’ve only been in one relationship, and it is never ending.
► Have you ever broken someone’s heart? ➔ Nope.
► Are you afraid of commitments? ➔ Not at all. I think committing to something or someone makes you a strong person. Or, maybe it takes a strong person to commit.
► Have you hugged someone within the last week? ➔ Of course.
► Have you ever had a secret admirer? ➔ I don’t think I’m anyone to admire in secret.
► Have you ever broken your own heart? ➔ No. At least… Is this a trick question?

SIX CHOICES

► Love or lust? ➔ Nothing good can ever come from lust.
► Lemonade or iced tea? ➔ Lemonade.
► Cats or Dogs? ➔ I’m really not an animal person. I should probably talk to Aubrey about that just in case.
► A few best friends or many regular friends? ➔ I tend to have few relationships.
► Wild night out or romantic night in? ➔ I’m definitely not a wild kind of guy.
► Day or night? ➔ Can it be both? I like the day time because I get to accomplish my goals. I feel like my dad is proud of me when I’m working. But, I like the night too because that’s when I can hang out with Aubrey.

FIVE HAVE YOU EVERS

► Been caught sneaking out? ➔ No. I had no reason to do that.
► Fallen down/up the stairs? ➔ No. *knocks on wood*
► Wanted something/someone so badly it hurt? ➔ Kinda? I wanted to express myself to Aubrey, but I didn’t know how. I was scared, and I didn’t really understand why. When I finally did, it came out all kinds of awkward and emotional, but she understood. She always does.
► Wanted to disappear? ➔ Oh yes. I wanted to disappear the first time I had dinner at the Pruetts’. I said something really awkward and stupid, and the room got really quiet.

FOUR PREFERENCES

► Smile or eyes? ➔ Smile
► Shorter or Taller? ➔ Shorter
► Intelligence or Attraction? ➔ A mix of both
► Hook-up or Relationship? ➔ Relationship. Hook-ups ruin lives.

FAMILY

► Do you and your family get along? ➔ Yes.
► Would you say you have a “messed up life”? ➔ Most definitely. My parents relationship sucked. My dad died when I was a teenager. My mom has children young enough to be my own kids, and now I’m in love with Aubrey who is the daughter of the man who my dad stole everything from. It’s soo messed up.
► Have you ever run away from home? ➔  No.
► Have you ever gotten kicked out? ➔ No. Unless you count getting kicked out of a restaurant because Aubrey and I stayed too long.

FRIENDS

► Do you secretly hate one of your friends? ➔ I don’t think we would be friends if I hate them, but no.
► Do you consider all of your friends good friends? ➔ I only have good friends.
► Who is your best friend? ➔ Aubrey.
► Who knows everything about you? ➔ She does.


And, because it’s simply not right to see Julio without Aubrey, here is the completed picture. Enjoy #Aubrio!
