I was kind of caught in my thoughts yesterday because I was thinking about the ways people apologize to one another and how you can get so much meaning out of how they (probably unconsciously) phrase an apology. I have my pet peeves with certain apology strategies, and that got me to thinking back to this quiz I took a while back that'd actually be pretty great for expanding upon characters.
So here's the Apology Quiz. The language can be kind of silly/wordy, but you'll get the gist of what it's aiming for by the time you hit the results. It's kind of long? But has a nice assortment of examples, so have fun. Feel free to share results for yourself, your characters, and the descriptions that come with them (or not! Your choice). I believe the site has two other quizzy things for Love/Appreciation, but I haven't checked those out yet and I'm not sure what they're like. If you wanna post those results here, go for it!
- Interpreting Your Profile Score: The highest score indicates your primary Apology language (the highest score possible is 20). It’s not uncommon to have two high scores, although one language does have a slight edge for most people. That just means you may feel equally receptive to two or more of the apology languages.
- Important to Remember: You may have scored certain ones of the apology languages more highly than others, but do not dismiss those other languages as insignificant. Others may express apologies in those ways, and it will be helpful to you to understand this about them.
Luella B. Mynn's:
With Luella I kind of figured she'd hate being in the position of coming up with ways for people to make up for however they've wronged her when they can figure that shit out themselves. And there's some kind of relief in hearing someone admitting that they were in the wrong, thus buttering her up by indirectly telling her 'You aren't wrong', so that explains the first one pretty well. And for making restitution, I figured she would gladly accept most bribes since she's a bribe-able kind of gal. Why simply accept an apology when you can get a lil' something extra out of it? Hehe.
I'mma do one for Danny later too. P sure he'd handle apologies different from Lue.
