Goals: I'd like to get out of this city and find a job doing what I'd really like to do - which is to be a comic artist or an animator, or to find some other job related to similar industries (designing toys/packaging maybe, working for a magazine, something).
Fears: Death, pain, and severe thunderstorms (and other natural disasters) rank among my top fears.
Talents: Drawing/coloring/graphics, writing, occasionally thinking of something witty to say, appearing much younger than I am (people think I'm in high school still)... I can't come up with much else.
Hobbies: (See my likes.) I like playing with my cat, reading, drawing, watching anime, playing video games, and wasting my life away on the computer.
Strong points: I'm mature and take my job seriously (and do it efficiently). I'm a good listener, I'm quiet, I'm a good artist, and according to other people, I'm creative.
Weak points: I get bored easily and anger easily, I have low self esteem, I'm lazy. I'm awkward around most people and have trouble speaking to them, and I'm so serious that I don't know how to let loose and have fun. I'm kind of klutzy, also, and don't smile often.

Mature or Immature: Mature.
Optimistic or Pessimistic: Pessimistic.
Outgoing or Shy: Shy.

Compassionate or Just: Compassionate if you know what buttons to push.
Confident or Modest: Modest.
The Questions
Let's pretend you are Luke (for this and the next question) and have lived exactly like him for the past seven years in the Fabre mansion and than suddenly one day a "mysterious intruder" attacks your mentor. You block her attack and then wake up in the middle of no where, half way a cross the world . What would your first reaction be? PANIC!! 'Why am I here? Who are you?? Where's "sensei"?? What are you going to do to me??' Please note that the above questions would be mostly internal and the result would probably be me feeling faint and dizzy, crying, or just looking plain confused and wondering what this strange woman will do with me.
A month later you finally get home. Though it doesn't feel much like home to you; it feels like anywhere else you've been. If this were you right this moment, how would you describe the feeling of your home not feeling like one? I guess I'd feel disillusioned. This place has always been home to me and suddenly it isn't... so where is home? I think I'd want to search for a place where I feel like I belong.
If you were Tear after she promised to return Luke home, how would you deal with/act towards the boy most of the time once you got to know him? I'd probably try to be nice to him, seeing as he's my responsibility and he's in unfamiliar territory. He probably feels kind of lost and confused, and being nice to him might help him to relax a little throughout the journey. But, at the same time I think I'd keep my distance since I'll be sending him home again and I have other priorities. My attempts at being friendly would likely be somewhat pitiful since I'm especially shy around boys and wouldn't really know what to say, but would probably evolve into me rambling pointlessly about things.
If you were Ion before the start of game, trapped in the church, like a pet and only there to serve as a figurehead to the Order of Lorelei, what would you do daily if you only had the choice of doing one thing? Wander around the labyrinth that is Daath church, looking for a friend or someone who will think of me as something more than just a figurehead while secretly looking for a way out.
If your life could save millions of others, would you give it up? Weighing the numbers, I'd probably feel like I should. I'd probably cry and scream the whole time, but if it'd really save all those people, then I'd be a jerk not to.
If you found out you weren't really the you you were raised and thought to be, how would you react? I'd go into denial. Then I'd probably start crying and confront my parents (or the people in question), demanding to know why they didn't tell me, who I really am, why I came to be here, what I'm supposed to be feeling/doing, and did they really think I'd be okay with this once I found out? Then probably... cry more. Lock myself in my room, and eventually decide to look for answers myself.
If your life was running out, what last things would you like to do before your went? Spend time with my friends, go places I've never been to, and do things I've always wanted to do and just never quite got around to doing.
Last Question! If you had the choice, would you live by the score to live easily or destroy the score to live freely? I think in the real world we do sort of live by a "score". I think I'd be afraid to turn away from the score on my own, but if I was thrown together with the right people, I think I could be convinced. I think order's important to society, to keep it running smoothly, but freedom is also something I'd want people to have, since it's one of our most basic rights as human beings.
