A Character Interview With Rey (Reynalda Fonne-Werde)

Hello everyone, Rookie Writers Solutions would like to share a conversation with Rey (Reynalda Fonne-Werde), one of the founding members of the Triple Threat Investigation Agency.

What is your idea of perfect happiness?  Having every store in every mall running a Black Friday sale!

What is your greatest fear?  Not solving a case.  But we (my cousin JJ and BFF Linda) have done really well so far as rookie private eyes.  

What is the trait you most deplore in yourself?  I have no “deplorable” traits . . . well, maybe not having a large vocabulary (Linda has to provide definitions once in a while).  But it’s all good.  I’m good.  😊

What is the trait you most deplore in others?  Self-centeredness.  People who are all about themselves really bug me.

What is your greatest extravagance?  Buying designer shoes/bags at full price (but I so love them).

What do you consider the most overrated virtue?  Humbleness.  . . . Sometimes, it seems so . . . forced.

On what occasion do you lie?  When we’re trying to catch a perp.  I don’t like to tell fibs and I don’t much care for fibbers either but, on occasion, it’s a must-do.

What do you most dislike about your appearance?  I like how I look (I put a lot of time, energy, and money into it).  But, if I had to pick something, I’d say my eyes.  I wear contacts because they’re otherwise such a drab color (pigeon-gray is so not pretty).

What is the quality you most like in a man?  Chivalry.  I guess I’m old-fashioned in some ways; I like having men open doors and pulling out chairs, asking what I want, and making me feel like, well, a princess.

What is the quality you most like in a woman?  Directness.  I like women who tell it like it is, won’t take “no” for an answer, and plunge into something they believe is worth pursuing.

Which words or phrases do you most overuse?  Swear/curse words aside, I’d say I tend to overuse “nummy”, “man”, and “pishaw”.

What or who is the greatest love of your life?  I’m still looking!

When and where were you happiest?  I’m happy right now, living on Oahu with JJ and Linda; we established the agency not that long ago and it’s going well.  

Which talent would you most like to have?  I can sing and dance and act, so what other talent is there?  Just joking.  I don’t know if it’s considered a talent, but I suppose I’d like to excel in one of the martial arts.  You know, come to that, being able to paint like Rembrandt would be kinda nice.

If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?  I’d like to be smarter (sometimes Linda makes me feel dumb).

What do you consider your greatest achievement?  All the B-movies I made and the fans I [still] have.  

Where would you most like to live?  I’m living exactly where I’d most like to: Hawaii.

What is your most treasured possession?  My rescue rabbit, Bonzo.  He’s not a possession like jewelry or artwork, or anything like that.  But he’s dear to me and I treasure every moment I have with him.  (Who’d have ever thought me, Rey Fonne-Werde, would ever have pet, much less love it with all my heart and soul?)

What is your favorite occupation?  It’s a toss-up between being an actress and a private eye, both of which I am.  But if I had to pick one that was out there, then I’d go with piloting.  It’d be awesome to fly a plane (you have to admire people that can navigate across the globe).

What is your most marked characteristic?  My charm?  😊

What do you most value in your friends?  It’s a cross between honesty and compassion.  

What is your motto?  A problem is only a challenge to be conquered.
