Hobbert Hobbitson, clearly.

Lose all teas (the drink) or all ts (the letter)?
The duke, the wanderer, the philosopher, the mariner, the warrior, the strategist, the storyteller, the wizard, the wayfarer...

The Seamstress

Losing the letters would be inconvenient, but I don't want to give up tea. Ea is a comfor drink, very imporan.

Magically have power over everything and everyone on this planet for one day, or magically change one single day in history to (maybe) prevent something from happening?

Jubal

I'd control the planet for a day - I think that's more reliable as a mechanism for change than changing the past. I'm not sure how much I could get done in a day even with total magical control, but I could at least get several world leaders to present signed statements and evidence of every crime they've committed to the world and formally resign, get multiple armies to destroy all their own weaponry and then start a retreat, and get a large number of the ultra-rich to give huge amounts to charity. Oddly I think the destructive stuff is probably the most important - because people can go back on their word, and things like legislation and contracts take a long time, but if you take a fighter jet to pieces you can't really put it back together again the next day.

Printers or scanners?

The Seamstress

Printers, I need them to print sewing patterns.

Laptop or phone?

Jubal

Laptop, SO much more important to me than my phone. It has all my games, photos, writing...


Replace the chancellor of Austria with an owlbear, or replace its leader of the opposition with a gnome called Dewberry?

The Seamstress

I'm not sure the gnome would make any difference, so owlbear chancellor wins.

Learn one thing about the universe no one else knows, or learn one thing about yourself no one ever told you?

Jubal

I mean, it would mean I got to look at a gnome called Dewberry rather than Mr. Kickl on the news bulletins, so that would be something.

I'd learn something about the universe. I'm not very interesting.

Coconuts or Pecan Nuts?

The Seamstress

Pecan.

Mozzarella or brie?

Jubal

Brie in and of itself, though Mozzarella is more culinarily flexible

Salt or sugar?
