Would you rather?

[Jubal]

Dog hearing I think?

Would you rather have 1000 pounds paid to you in free food, or in one pound coins?

[The Seamstress]

If I don't get all the food at once so it doesn't go bad before I can eat it, definitely the food.

Would you rather be able to hibernate, or have your hair change colour with the seasons (going white in winter)?

[Jubal]

Ooh. I think if everyone hibernated, I'd happily live in a hibernating society (though I'd get winter FOMO), but I think realistically hair colour changes make more sense and being able to do a really neat Geralt cosplay during the winter months is something I could go for (not that I have the build or stature for it...)

Would you rather spend three months starring in a series of very dull corporate training videos, or spend three months learning tort law?

[Son of the King]

Definitely the dull training videos, I reckon it'd be possible to have fun doing that.

Would you prefer to not have to sleep, or not have to breathe?

[Jubal]

Ooh tricky. Not having to breathe feels more actual superpower territory, but then I'd be obligated to go become a diver or firefighter or something. No sleep is more my style.

Would you rather live in a giant's doll house, well cared for but required to obey a giant child, or live in a crack in the giant's walls, scavenge, and be treated as a household pest.

[The Seamstress]

The latter, because being subjected to the whims of a giant child would probably not end well.

Street vendors offer you a magical trick to get rid of a thing that bothers you - at least that's what they promise. Would you rather give your money to the tiny old guy, smiling politely, in an old-fashioned suit who looks like he's seen better days long ago OR purchase a trick from the grinning man-sized frog wearing a Hawaiian shirt who looks a little too eager, but seems generally friendly?

[Jubal]

Always trust frogs. Even if they are a bit slippery.

Would you rather have a bard assigned to write songs in your honour or a ranger assigned to scout out anywhere you were likely to go to check for danger?

[The Seamstress]

Danger ranger? Doesn't seem too bad...

Would you rather have all the things you own turned into plushies, or all plushies you own turned into gold?

[Jubal]

Oh no that's a terrible choice: losing my guitar, computer, printer, etc would be really really armadillo, but my soft toys all becoming metal would really hurt Either way I'd end up losing/wrecking a lot of stuff with big sentimental value. I think probably the plushies becoming gold has to make sense: it produces a lot more value and doesn't wreck any historical artifacts or heirlooms. But ooft.

Would you rather only communicate via pigeon post, or only communicate via semaphore towers?

[The Seamstress]

Pigeon post! I want to hand-write little messages.

Would you rather be obliged to wear an owlbear or pangolin suit whenever you leave the house? Only your face would be visible.

[Jubal]

Hm. I feel like the owlbear suit would be easier to use actually: the pangolin tail would be a pain given I don't have a way to manipulate it prehensile style like the actual creatures.

Would you rather quatrefoil or cinquefoil?

[The Seamstress]

Cinquefoil.

Would you rather live in a house built in the 16th or in the 19th century?

[Jubal]

16th. Always here for some big wooden beams!

Would you rather live in a Monastery, or a Tueastery? (What a Tueastery is you can only speculate)

[The Seamstress]

Hm, in this case I think I'll live in the Monastery, at least I know what to expect there.

Would you rather be friend-shaped or fiend-shaped?

[Jubal]

Friend-shaped. I think I may in fact be friend-shaped. I hope I am friend-shaped.

Would you rather whales or elephants?
