Tellonym Round Up: August 29

Will the listener be fainting again in rfa 3? (We believe in you Mrs kim you got this!)

Spoilers! 🤐

Which RFA boy would join a running club?

Jack, Derek, Will, Brian, and Jim

Do any of the RFA boys play video games?

Yes! Linus plays the most, I think. Jack, Derek, Brian, Jim, Alex play a fair amount. Will and Emerson play a bit.

How would the RFA boys help the listener get ready for the first day of school?

I mean, she’s an adult businesswoman, so that’s not really a thing.

How did the president end up getting down the stairs in RFA? They mentioned trying to find a board but that was never confirmed. We moved on to team 1 and the main plot. Love the series. It's so good.

They found a board. It’s in a deleted scene that was never recorded. Deleted for time. I may release it in written form.

What are the RFA boy's dream job?

Jack - detective 

Derek - professional rugby player

Will - movie director 

Emerson - children’s director at someplace like the YMCA

Alex - artist/musician 

Brian - professional basketball player

Jim - artist 

Linus - veterinarian

How would the rfa boys react to the listener making a song for them (like about love or just their favorite genre of music)?

They’d be delighted and very grateful for the effort.

How does the RFA boys decorate for Halloween?

Emerson would go all out. Fog machine, complex, giant decorations. With that example, the guys would all eagerly join in.

How would the rfa boys react if the listener ran into a glass door?

They’d probably laugh and then ask if you’re okay

Which of the RFA boys are the most chaotic? And which of them are the calmest?

I think Derek or Alex is the most chaotic? Linus or Will for the calmest maybe

Hii Mrs Kim hope you're doing fantastic and getting the rest you need but I do have a question :) In rfa 2 when it split in half the listener gets up and tries to jump over the gap but before she gets up linus says "Ms are you okay,uhhh ms?" What made him question her..was she slowly getting up to run or??

She wasn’t responding to or looking at him, and then got up

Who would be the “mom” of the RFA boys group?

Hmm … Emerson maybe?

How would President Carter react if her daughter wanted to date Linus?

She’d be fine with it

Does any of the RFA boys drink coffee or tea?

I’d say most of them drink coffee except Will. Derek and Jim also drink tea. Maybe Linus too.

How would the RFA boys react if the listener forces them to go on a roller coaster?

Nobody does this. If you’re the kind of person that does this, stop it. Asshole move.

How would the rfa boys react if the listener was pregnant but the dad left?

The boys would rally around her, going to appointments and doing whatever she needed, getting everything ready for baby. You better believe the President would legally (I’m sure she knows good lawyers) grab the guy by the balls and make sure he was supporting the child financially.

How did you come up with the characters from RFA?

Again, I’m sort of backwards. I come up with purpose and plot before characters. So they just kind of evolved as the plot went along. Little changes with each guy to start to make them different from each other.

How would the rfa boys react if they all went to the the beach together with the listener and she went in the water but the waves were to strong so she couldn't get back up?

They’d all dive in after her. Maybe send one of them to alert the life guard.

How does the RFA boys spend the 4th of July?

Emerson would probably do a big BBQ and make way too much food for everyone. I don’t know how the military branches celebrate. If they march in parades or whatnot.

Do any of the rfa boys work with military K9s?

I love this question! I think maybe some of the Army guys have! Linus would love it, because he wants to be a veterinarian.

Do any of the RFA boys have anger issues?

I wouldn’t really say so. But if you piss off Emerson or Jack in the wrong way, you’ll be very sorry.

Was the interference on Emerson's phone call from the aliens, the CIA, or just bad towers?

Good catch! Aliens! Because they were approaching the hospital.

Hi Kim! I just want to let you know that your stories have now entered my life in a way that makes me laugh/giggle! I work food service and recently had a take-out order I had to call out and the name was Emerson! I had to wait a second to get the giggles out before I could go out there and call out for the person! 

Thank you for everything you do! Please keep it up and know that you are the reason that I giggle at the name Emerson!

Aww I love this.

How would the RFA boys react if the listener had a bad pain flare up?

They’d take care of her. Bring her medicine, heating pads, distract her. Take her to a medical professional if needed.

Did the president daughter ever get the letter will wrote to her?

Have to wait and see!

What position do the RFA boys sleep in?

On their side: Jack, Brian, Alex On their stomach: Derek, Jim Starfish: Derek, Linus On their back, snoring: Emerson, Will

How would the guys from Rescued from Aliens propose? Would you do something big or something smaller and more intimate?

That would depend on the fiancée! They would do whatever would suit you.

Which RFA boy was hard to record?

I’d rather not go into that. Different people have different equipment or recording schedules. Everyone’s done their best.

If the RFA boys were types of animals, what kind would best suit their personalities?

Jack - tiger

Derek - horse

Will - bear

Alex - otter

Emerson - dog

Brian - seal

Jim - dragonfly

Linus - cat

2 questions:

1. Do the RFA boys speak another language? (Other than English, sign language would count)

2. Do they have a favorite baked good?

Thank you for all your hard work, including answering our questions. We appreciate it. 💕

1. Probably Alex. Do they train military members in other languages? 

2. Jack - nice fluffy dinner rolls

Derek - scones

Will - cookie bars

Alex - a cronut from one specific bakery in the big city

Emerson - he doesn’t eat a lot of them, but he loves making them for others

Brian - peach cobbler

Jim - opera cake

Linus - cheesecake

How would the rfa boys react to the listener singing?

They’d be delighted. Some would join in if they knew the song.

In the series "Rescued from Aliens," we learn that at first, the boys who help the "listener" don't know each other. My question is, after everything with the aliens is over and everything calms down a bit, aside from the relationship they can maintain with the listener, would the boys continue to keep in touch with each other, or would each go their own way?

I think they’d absolutely keep in touch.

Do you have any plans for another collab as huge as RFA, or do you plan to keep them smaller after RFA is done? What would the next collab idea be if you have plans?

I have more collabs coming up. Probably none quite this big. We’ll see. I have to have people that are ultra reliable. Holding onto a cast that long is a difficult challenge

Are there plans to cross the main and side story of the RFA series together, or are they gonna stay separate stories in the same universe?

Spoilerssssssss 😇

If the Listener challenged the RFA boys to a sparring match, who do you think would go easy, show no mercy, lose on purpose, not spar, etc?

No mercy - Derek, oddly enough Linus (he has older sisters)

Go easy - Jack, Brian

Try something like tickling to disrupt: Alex, Jim

Lose on purpose: Will, Emerson

Hi! I really love your Survivors story for Extroverted ED’s channel. It’s so well written and makes me giggle with happiness every time I listen to it! Have you ever considered writing a part 2 or more for it? Anyways, have a great day!!!!

I absolutely have! Ed and I have ideas. Just a matter of getting them down on paper.

If the RFA boys each had their own fighting style, what do you think they’d specialize in?

I don’t think I know enough about fighting styles to answer this.

Do you use pop culture or any relationship tropes as inspiration when you create your characters? If yes, who are some examples?

Not really no. I think of emotional scenes I want to happen. And then I build characters and scenes to make that happen. I’m kinda backwards. Cannot really recommend lol. Occasionally songs will inspire something. I wrote a whole fanfic based on mishearing the lyric “now you’re looking pretty in a hotel bar” as “now you’re looking pretty in a hotel ballroom”

Which Avenger do you think the RFA boys are and why?

I don’t think these all fit super well, buuuut here’s what I did. 

Captain America - Will 

Hulk - Emerson

Ironman - Jack

Black Widow - Linus

Hawkeye - Alex

Thor - Brian

Scarlet Witch - Jim 

Pietro - Derek

Have you ever considered doing more crossovers with your stories (ex: portal to a cure)? Would you write those scripts yourself, or have scripts sent to you?

For my characters, I’d probably prefer to write it myself.

If the rfa boys were in looney tunes what character relates to them or acts like them?

This is tough. Not sure I can make them all match. For pure sass factor, I’m gonna say that Alex is closest to Bugs. We’ll give Daffy (my favorite) to Derek. Honestly, I don’t think any of the others really match up. Like you have Foghorn Leghorn and Yosemite Sam with Southern accents, but neither of them are anything like Brian.

If the rfa boys did track what main events would they do, 100m, 400m, 1200m, 4x100 relay, long jump, shotput, javelin, hammer. That type of stuff

I’m not sure. What do you think?

Do any of the rfa boys like to crochet?

Hmm. Maybe Jim. I think Alex and Brian probably know how.

How would the RFA boys react to an haunted house?

I think they’d mostly be pretty chill except Linus and Derek

How would the rfa boys react to the listener wheezing while laughing?

I don’t know. This is weird.

What inspired you to make the Rescued by Aliens series?

Malinda did! I wanted to write something very self indulgent, and she encouraged me. Also was inspired by Cardlin’s In Good Hands series.
