We've offered 15 questions this month. The first 10 are normal questions that you answer about both your characters. Then, there are 5 extra questions focusing specifically on what kind of a relationship they have.
If you don't want to do the additional 5 questions, you can always just pick one character and use just the 10 questions as planned. This relationship challenge is completely optional and it's up to you whether you want to participate.

I'm going to be doing this one with Allyn and James, the two main characters in a rather newish novel of mine.

1. Do they believe in anything that most people think is impossible?

Allyn is a skeptic. She's been lied to too many times to believe in things that are generally considered 'impossible'. 

James, however, tends to have more faith in others than Allyn and normally is the one who believes things that sound silly or impossible. Such as the legends.

2. Are they strong, or the "damsel/knight in distress" sort?

For the most part they're both pretty strong. Allyn does have her moments of vulnerability, but they're few and far between.

3. Do they have a special place? (e.g. a corner in his/her bedroom, under a tree...)

Not that I know of, but knowing these two, they'll come up with something and totally surprise me. ;)

4. What occupation do they have, or plan on having?

James is a soldier. When he heard about the war, he was one of the first to sign up. He's the leader of a small squardon. 

Allyn is part of a resistance movement and fights in the background. She's a Protector.

5. Describe their current place of residence.

They live in the city in a massive manor house complete with towers, stained glass windows, and staircases. It's really the headquarters for the resistance, but most of the Protectors live in the manor.

6. Explain their last crisis. How had they changed when they came out of it?

These two are still pretty new characters for me and they haven't told me about their crisis' yet.

7. If they could drive any kind of car they wanted, what would it be?

Probably something cute and sporty for Allyn and a truck for James.

8. How do they deal with change?

Allyn takes it in stride and allows herself grow with it, but James literally loathes it. It's not consistant and that scares him.

9. If they had to amputate one body part, which one would they choose?
They're both extremely active, so anything major would be hard for them to give up. Probably a finger or toe.

10. What would their favorite be at the local coffee shop?

James drinks his coffee black with only a little bit of sugar and Allyn likes black tea with cream and sugar.

And here are the extra 5:

1. How did they meet?
They met when Allyn was fourteen and she was sent to the city to finish her schooling. They were both at the same school and were partners in crime. Both were troublemakers.

2. How do these two deal with conflict?

They try to avoid it. There's already so much in their lives due to the War and the fact that they play an active role in it.  When it's unavoidable in their relationship, they fight it out, although it usually turns into a tickle war and then they get hot chocolate.

3. Do they have a special song, phrase, item, or place?
If I had to choose a song for them it might be Constant by House of Heroes.

4. What kind of things do they like to do together?

Haven't a clue yet. When in school they liked to cause trouble and had a competition going on who could get the most detentions in a week. 

5. Describe their relationship as a whole in 3 words or less.
Constant. Love. Forever.
