    Good day to all! I am [member='AzurAurora'] with yet another MOTM Interview! The time is going by really fast, this year. It is already the tenth month of the year and we are welcoming the 10th Member of the Month of 2016. Halloween is only a few days away as we honor the new Member of the Month: [member='tonochi']!

    As you all know, [member='tonochi'] hasn't been around for that long, but she is a well-seen face on Lake Valor. Her kind disposition and general helpful attitude got her noticed by the community, not to mention the great job she has been doing on LV's Tumblr page.

    ..........................................................................................
    We are going to start with some easy questions. This one will be very easy, would you mind introducing yourself to our lovely Valorians?

    Hi, all! I'm tonochi and I'm a Social Crew member here! I have been on LV for about 7 months and a Social crew member for a month! I love anime, drawing, and video games!

    Thank you for that lovely introduction. First off, congratulations on behalf of the Writers team on becoming the Member of the Month! What did you feel when you got nominated and how awesome was it to actually see your name in that much-coveted space on the homepage?

    Thank you! I felt stunned, to be honest. I never thought I would be nominated, let alone become the MotM. It's really something special. I feel so honored and happy that I was able to experience this. When I first joined LV I thought the idea of a MotM was so cool! I really want to thank this whole community for being so awesome.

    I bet it has been a nice month for you. You said that you are a Social crew member, which is also shown by the spoopy orange name glow you have on Lake Valor. What do you enjoy the most of being a Social crew member?

    Yes, my name glow is quite spoopy and fitting of October, haha. It's really as simple as I like to help the community. I picked being a Social crew member because I knew this would be one way I could help out! I also like looking at Pokémon art too, haha.

    Pokémon art is something that is enjoyed much by our community, and in turn, they have made some wonderful art themselves. Have you come across a piece that has really jumped out to you, either from artists here or somewhere else? If so, how has it captured your attention?

    I don't think I can just pick one piece of art, haha. Everyone's art is so amazing and beautiful, but if I had to pick some artists...I really love iR-dR on Tumblr. They post art almost daily and their style is amazing in my opinion. I also love [member='Deltheor']'s art here on the forums. His attention to detail is so amazing and beautiful.

    I checked them out myself, Del is indeed very amazing and iR-dR has a wonderful style. But then again, I like most stuff about Pokémon, you are probably no exception to liking Pokémon. You wouldn't be here at LV if you didn't. But how did you wind up in the fun and weirdness that is Lake Valor? Is there any reason you decided to stay?

    I actually found LV via a Sun and Moon update video! One of their sources was for LV and I thought I should check it out. I mainly decided to stay because of the people. Everyone is super nice and helpful on here and it's great to get to meet so many people who love Pokémon as much as I do.

    On to the more trivial questions I have for you. The first one I have might be a bit weird, but what is the worst habit you have? And do you wish to get rid of it?

    Probably forgetting to respond to people when they text me. I would love to get rid of this. I always feel so embarrassed when people text me hours later asking if something happened to me...

    I guess people would worry when people forget to respond to texts. At least they are worried enough to contact you again. But by forgetting do you mean reading the text, being distracted by something, and forgetting to respond or forgetting to check the phone for text at all?

    Well, a multitude of reasons really. Probably the biggest reason is because I'm usually doing something else, and always say, "I'll respond when I'm done with this.", then it just kinda spirals from there... I really hate this habit, and I wish there was something I could do about it. *A*

    It would be very nice to get rid of a bad habit. Luckily, one bad habit doesn't describe you very well. Here on LV, you are seen as a kind, friendly member, and we love it when you are able to join us. Is there any way you could use 3 - 5 adjectives to describe yourself?

    Silly, daring, outrageous, flashy, and majestic.

    You say you are daring. A bit of a thrill seeker maybe? What would you choose from these three options: bungee jumping, skydiving or shark cage diving?

    Bungee jumping. I've gone bungee jumping before and it was so much fun! While I haven't been shark diving or skydiving, I'm sure they're equally fun.

    Last of the trivial questions, if you could have one wish, what would you use it for?

    Infinite wishes, of course. I like to think I would use it for something like world peace, but I would probably just ask for infinite sushi.

    Fishies belong in the sea, not on a plate Alright, that concludes our lovely interview. Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions! Do you have any last words for the people here?

    Thank you for this lovely interview! Stay cool Lake Valor! I look forward to staying here for a long time to come!

    ..........................................................................................
    We'll love to see you around for many more months to come! This is the end of the MOTM Interview from October 2016. I thank you, tonochi, on behalf of the Writers team for agreeing to take time out your probably very busy schedule. We wish everyone a happy Halloween and Oktoberfest here on LV!

    This was [member='AzurAurora']. See you all next time!

    It's confirmed. Del's fanart of Pokémon Eclipse drew in members, lol.

    In all seriousness though, this was a lot of fun to read! Azur, you're a really great interviewer, and I'm happy to know more about you now, Tono :D
    that last bit sounded very creepy I know lol
    I look forward to seeing more from both of you around the site :D
