Is that a gunblade in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
Name: (real name if possible) Ana.
Nicknames: Ani.
Age: 17.
Gender: Female.
Likes: The arts, reading, fandom, yaoi, Seifer/Squall, Utada Hikaru, animals, bad puns, the universe.
Dislikes: Close-mindedness, homophobia, religion, cruelty/violence/war/etc., humans hunting and/or eating meat.
Hobbies: Writing, drawing, reading, web/graphic design, watching anime, playing video games, singing, composing music, making AMVs, anything else artistic.
Talents: If anything, writing. If not writing, nothing.
Strong Points: Willing to try new things, not easily frightened.
Weak Points: Boring, unintelligent, lacking in creativity, anti-social, unable to show others my true self, self-conscious, tormented by the past, stubborn, opinionated, no motivation for things that are beyond the scope of my interests but I am nevertheless required to do (i.e. most schoolwork… although I somehow still manage to get decent grades), frequently ill, physically ugly, angsty, low self-esteem.
Favorite Color: Blue, I suppose, but I love all colors.
Number One Goal: I can’t say. I would be persecuted if I mentioned this goal to anyone, perhaps institutionalized… and it is terribly pathetic… but my secondary goals are to create one truly original, beautiful thing before I die and to become a writer.
Optimistic or Pessimistic: Concerning the world outside of myself, I am optimistic. I think everything around me is very wonderful and intriguing. Concerning myself, however, I am exceedingly pessimistic. I am this one pixel of ugliness in an infinite universe of beauty.
Hyper or Calm or Normal Energy: Sometimes, I can get extremely giddy and hyper when I am alone. (My true self? I wonder...) In general, however, I am very calm, to the extent of being apathetic.
Impulsive or Cautious: Usually cautious, but I’ll occasionally do very impulsive, bold things that even I am surprised at.
Outgoing or Shy: Incredibly shy, even online… I am very afraid that what I do and say will not be adequately interesting to those around me, so I tend to just avoid interacting closely with people and the associated rejection.
Mature or Immature?: I feel and act mature, especially in real life, but at my core I’d say I’m immature. I don’t understand this insane universe at all; I’m isolated in my own point of view, like a small child, and can’t see anything beyond it…
Leader or Follower?: I’m a follower in the sense that I try to please others by letting them make the decisions when we’re together, but when it comes to personal matters such as my opinions, fashion, and interests, I just do what I want.
Assume the following each have "and why" at the end.
Who is your favorite Final Fantasy VIII character? Seifer. Most people write him off simply as the “bully”, but he is really the most complex character of FFVIII. After reading and writing vast amounts of fanfiction, playing the game multiple times, and otherwise obsessing over FFVIII, I still don’t really understand this guy. He has so many dimensions to him. (Of course, he is also physically beautiful, and humans are undeniably attracted to such individuals, but let's ignore that...) I especially love Seifer in association with Squall - my pet theory is that they are close friends. >_>; (First face!)
Who is your least favorite Final Fantasy VIII character? I’m going to assume you don’t want me to answer this with a minor character, so… of the main characters, Irvine. Although I do still like him, he seems a bit less fleshed out than the others, a bit more based on stereotype... he does have his quirks and his charms, however!
You find 1 million dollars on the street. Would you keep it or turn it in? Keep it. I doubt the money would be given to its rightful owner anyway, and even if it were, its owner might use it in support of terrible things. That moral excuse aside, I love money. I’m not materialistic in the sense of liking money just to buy expensive clothes/jewelry/cars/etc. and show off with them, but I love to have money so that I can buy books, movies, and video games. My life basically revolves around indulging and participating in the arts. That said, I think I'd also do my best to help better the lives of animals and the state of nature with the money... or maybe I wouldn't be so noble in reality?... I don't know. I sincerely hope I wouldn't be so filthy as to spend all of it on myself.
What are the 3 top characteristics you look for in a friend? Kind, outgoing (I need an extrovert to balance out my shyness), open-minded. (Add me, add me!! [shameless self-promotion])
What is your fighting style? When I was younger, it was to push people away. I detached myself from many dear friends that I miss terribly in this manner. Now, I hardly ever fight, and if so it’s only petty arguments with my family… but in that case, I use sarcasm and cold words. Or, wait, did you mean in FFVIII…? In that case, I draw way more magic than I ought, thus making my stats ridiculously high. =D
