Q & A AMA - Jacqueline Hyde

[Jacqueline Hyde]

do you have any nicknames?

Certain people have taken to referring to me as Jackie in chat. I have accepted it.

How long does Jacqueline take to get ready in the morning, and has Hyde ever added or hindered her morning routine?

Jacqueline takes at least a half hour - her elaborate braid alone is a trial! Hyde has been known to appear when she gets particularly frustrated, which is a hindrance in and of itself since it takes up precious seconds. It's not like Hyde is going to do anything other than rant at the mirror, so there's time lost that could have gone to hair and makeup.

If you had to integrate Hyde into Jacqueline as one person, which aspect of Hyde would you keep and why?

I hope (for Jacqueline's sake) that they do eventually integrate, actually. I think the part of Hyde that Jacqueline needs most is her focus on herself. While Jacqueline has no problem acting independently, she often acts for the sake of others rather than herself, and though selflessness is admirable, when combined with her highly loyal streak it makes her an easy person for others to use.

Agreed on that.

Who was Jacqueline loyal to, before she met Carmen?

 

[Joe Kerr]

Given that Jacqueline is technically someone outside her time, has she had any trouble adjusting to the present?

Her school friends and her family. They were good people to have around; her life was just rather boring until VILE came along.

She's needed quite a bit of help from her VILE colleagues. Luckily for her, they're used to working with people much further outside their times. 45 years or so is a much shorter leap than, say, 400, so while she's needed to get caught up on technological advancements and changes in culture, those are more on the scale of "MP3s instead of 8-tracks" than "indoor plumbing and electricity." She sometimes forgets one cultural shift or another and says something strange as a result, but given that she's a VILE villain, strange is expected, really.

How would both Jacqueline and Hyde want to be remembered, and what are you doing now to perpetuate that wish?

 

[Mikal]

How often on average is there a switch between Jacqueline and Hyde?

How often on average is there a switch between Jacqueline and Hyde?

Hyde may appear as infrequently as once a day, or as frequently as once every few minutes. So a very rough average: a few times a day.

(Claire, I'm thinking about yours. Glad you're not morbid at all. /s)
