Harvey Finevoice

Part 1: The Basics
❧ What is your full name?
Harvey S. Finevoice

❧ Where and when were you born?
Chicago, August 30, 1974

❧ Who are/were your parents? (Know their names, occupations, personalities, etc.)
My mother was named Anna. She was a waitress. Hard job, but y'know, I don't think I ever once heard her have a bad thing to say about anyone at that place. I know some of 'em were real jerks, too - it was a different time, y'know? But she was just kinda like that. She got sick my last year of high school. I wanted to drop out to help take care of her, but she wouldn't hear a darn thing about that. Chased me right outta the house a couple times.

She died a couple months after I turned eighteen.

My old man's name was Joe. He was a cop.

❧ Do you have any siblings? What are/were they like?
Nope. Only child.

❧ Where do you live now, and with whom? Describe the place and the person/people.
Oh, man. Guess I'll try.

I'm sharin' an apartment in Minnesota right now with a buncha folks. More than the place oughta really fit, I think the kid did somethin' to it. The kid's Linkara. He's a comic book reviewer, good with science and magic and all that stuff. He's Liz's boyfriend - yeah, she has a boyfriend - she lives with us too. And 90s Kid. I dunno if you know about him, he ain't been here as long. He's...a teenager. Likes guns. Loud.

Then there's the Ninja-Style Dancer. He's from another dimension too. I think the name kinda describes him, but he's a great guy, really. Pollo and Nimue are our robots. Red doesn't get out much, unless you count her drivin' the spaceship, but I like her. A lot less scary than she looks.

No, I don't mean the Pollo that's here. The real Pollo's a little blue robot, not usually known for killin' people.

Look, why don't we just move on?

❧ What is your occupation?

I'm a singer. That's why you're interviewin' me.

❧ Write a full physical description of yourself. You might want to consider factors such as: height, weight, race, hair and eye color, style of dress, and any tattoos, scars, or distinguishing marks.

You can see me!

Fine, yeah, that makes sense. I'm about six foot back home - yeah, that's pretty normal for humans. Yeah. Brown hair, blue eyes...I dress pretty much like I do now, except with pants.

❧ To which social class do you belong?

I do okay for myself. Better in Equestria than back home, honestly.

❧ Do you have any allergies, diseases, or other physical weaknesses?

No.

❧ Are you right- or left-handed?

Right-handed.

❧ What does your voice sound like?

...fine. Or so they say.

❧ What words and/or phrases do you use very frequently?

Well, I guess I do use the term "kid" a lot.

❧ What do you have in your pockets?

Hm...couple bits, handkerchief, house keys.

❧ Do you have any quirks, strange mannerisms, annoying habits, or other defining characteristics?

What the hay is that supposed to mean?

Part 2: Growing Up

❧ How would you describe your childhood in general?

It was fine.

❧ What is your earliest memory?

...I don't know, why? Lemme see those questions.

❧ How much schooling have you had?

That's fine, I told you I went through high school.

❧ Did you enjoy school?

Does anyone?

❧ Where did you learn most of your skills and other abilities?

❧ While growing up, did you have any role models? If so, describe them.

❧ While growing up, how did you get along with the other members of your family?

Hm...yeah, this ain't all that interestin'. Let's just move on - you folks wanna hear about the music, right?

Part 6: Likes And Dislikes

❧ What is/are your favorite hobbies and pastimes?

I used to have a couple shows I watched on the road, but these Equestrian radio shows ain't really the same. I do like cookin', too, when I'm home.

❧ What is your most treasured possession?

My tommygun. [He's probably lying.]

❧ What is your favorite color?

Blue. And black, I guess.

❧ What is your favorite food?

I always like a good steak. Nope, don't worry about what that is.

❧ What, if anything, do you like to read?

Mysteries are fun. I used to like the occasional horror story, before my life turned into one.

❧ What is your idea of good entertainment (consider music, movies, art, etc.)?

Now, if you asked the kids that, they'd say I was into old stuff. Me, I'd say I like the classics.

❧ Do you smoke, drink, or use drugs? If so, why? Do you want to quit?

No.

❧ How do you spend a typical Saturday night?

Those're my nights at the Decanter, unless I'm on tour. I head there around eight, get ready for my set. There ain't too much to prepare there, really, unless I've gotta go over the set list with Bertie, so mostly I just grab a bite to eat with Flare before I head onstage.

After the show's done, I might hang around a little bit before headin' home. Liz goes out to her game nights on Saturdays, so she ain't home anyway. I usually wait up for her before I go to sleep.

❧ What makes you laugh?

Plenty of things. Linkara's show was always funny.

❧ What, if anything, shocks or offends you?

I like to think I ain't gonna be too shocked by anything anymore. But now that I've said that, it's gonna get worse.

❧ What would you do if you had insomnia and had to find something to do to amuse yourself?

You say that like it ain't ever happened.

❧ How do you deal with stress?

I just get outta the house for a while, maybe go on a drive.

❧ Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?

I'd prefer to have a plan, but that don't always happen.

❧ What are your pet peeves?

Bein' pulled between dimensions.
