Okay, what story do you think of when looking at this picture in combination this song? I for one wrote The Executioner inspired by pieces such as this.

Quiz – What do your Reactions say about you?

On By Ana C. BlacklaceIn Fiction Entertainment15 Comments

Welcome to a new kind of personality quiz – the Situational Quiz. Today will reveal what your Reactions say about you. This is different than the Theme Quizzes in a number of points, but mainly the variants are no longer images, but words. Our subconscious reacts differently to these elements.

The principle is pretty much the same as with the previous quizzes. You are required to read the question, then make your decision within the first 5 seconds after your brain has registered what each choice means. Do NOT read the interpretations until you’ve made your choice, and please be purely honest. And most of all, enjoy!

QUESTION:

When faced with a false accusation, which of these Reactions feel more natural to you as you read them?

  1. Cry; 2. Yell; 3. Demand; 4. Ask; 5. Coerce.

INTERPRETATIONS:

  1. Cry – you’re sensitive and sometimes vulnerable; you’re kind-hearted and empathic at the cost of your defenses; you’re soft and easy to hurt, but not necessarily easy to sway from your purposes.
  2. Yell – you can sense people’s intentions; you have a sharp sense of justice, and you go as mad over intention as you do over words or actions; you can make an impression and often get your own.
  3. Demand – you know when to be firm and your attitude rarely allows too bold behavior; you may have a feeling of entitlement; you’re straight-forward and people naturally respect you.
  4. Ask – you have special respect for your fellow humans, for their choices and freedoms, which makes you particularly liked; however, you may also be a good influencer, which means you can be manipulative.
  5. Coerce – you’re a hard person, and you have some experience with getting your way; sometimes the goal justifies the means, and you don’t shy away from darker methods; there’s secret to you, and maybe danger.

Enjoyed this quiz? Plenty more where it came from. Check out the other quizzes in the Quizzes section on this site, and please share your feelings in a comment. I’m always happy to read from you.

ANNOUNCEMENT: A New Year has begun, and a new year means NEW STORIES. Hyperion, Saphira and Lila (available here) have opened the road for “The Marquis” – once a victim, now a killer pursuing an epic revenge, and “The Serpent God” – in which the woman who loved Hyperion and was loved by him in return is contacted to find him and unlock his secret, the secret of the Serpent God, and the meaning behind the title. Stay tuned for suspenseful entertainment starting this Tuesday and, most of all, enjoy!

Enjoy, and stay tuned for more quizzes until the New Year’s Eve, with an explosive one on the big night itself.
