Character Interview: Caleb Dagonet

+JMJ+

I used to make a handwritten newspaper for my family, which I haven't done in a long, and one of the things I had in it, were character interviews. I decided to start posting one weekly. I certainly have enough characters. :D

~ ♠ ~

My first character Interview will be with Caleb Dagonet.

Interview

Me: Good morning Caleb, would you mind sharing a few words with me?

Caleb: *Terrified look* N-no p-please!

Me: Thank you.

Caleb: Uh-?

Me: Do you have any siblings, Caleb?

Caleb: *Smiles* Yes.

Me: How many?

Caleb: Er- nine.

Me: I beat you, I have eleven.

Caleb: *deflated* Oh.

Me: How many brothers do you have?

Caleb: *Nervously* Um- Calvin, Reginald, Percy, Jamie and Willy.

Me: *eyes glaze over* Um- that's six, no um five. *This is math people, don't expect me to do it*

Caleb: I- I guess, I never counted them.

Me: *brightens up* Isn't Math awful?

Caleb: Wh-what's math?

Me: You don't want to know.

Caleb: Um- alright.

Me: So what did you do before becoming one of the Knights Round?

Caleb: Took care of my brothers and sisters.

Me: What were your parents doing?

Caleb: My da was blacksmith. My mother is dead.

Me: Oh, I'm sorry.

Caleb: *unhappily* If you were you- you would not have murdered her!

Me: But I didn't murder her! She was dead before I even wrote the first book!

Caleb: *Sniffling* See you murdered her!

Me: *unhappily* Now you're making me feel bad. Don't you like your new mother.

Caleb: *Angrily* Madame Velna hates me!

Me: *Thoughtfully* Yeah, she doesn't like many people, does she.

Caleb: She's mean to the little ones.

Me: How old are you now, Caleb?

Caleb: Fourteen I guess, you weren't very particular about my age.

Me: I got it, you were twelve in "Sword of Camelot," thirteen in "The Pendragon Heir," and fourteen in "Key of Avalon."

Caleb: I have to wait a whole year for you to write another book for me to get any older?

Me: I don't believe you ever said anything that long in any of the books!

Caleb: Well?

Me: Ordinary people have to wait a hole year to get older.

Caleb: You still did kill my mother.
Me: Okay, this whole thing was a bad idea. All my characters are going to do is complain about how poorly I've treated them.
Caleb: Are you going to kill me too?
Me: Well you were alive in "A Ranger's Quest," so you do survive for at least eighteen more years.
Caleb: Oh good.
Me: But Arthur survives that long and he is still on the dying list.
Caleb: :(
