How can a projectile expect to hold up against a gunblade?
Name: (real name if possible) Kate.
Nicknames: Urgh. Kate (The full name's Katherine, but too many other people in my school have that), Katie, Datie-pie, Kat, Magiver!, Melanie, Kat-urine (and on-line Mel Magoo, occasionally Rei and aeris- but I need a better LJ nickname) etc...
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Likes: coffee, hot cocoa, cats, dogs, sleep, walking aimlessly, rain (and dancing in it), thunderstorms, the twilight, the ocean, history and mythology, silence, ben'n'jerry's ice-cream, fantasy, unrequited, forbidden or impossible love, fan fiction, blaring music in an empty house (and singing badly along to it), quoting books/ movies randomly, coming up with terrible character pairings/ story ideas and exploring them (especially two hours before chemistry exams which I left to the last minute to revise for)
Dislikes: making choices (but I hate being told what to do more), my biology teacher (who is so narrow minded and randomly jumps up and down or grins- really scary...), people who think they can label me by my glasses or hair or clothing (and shout "hippy!" down the corridor at me), waking with the dawn (I'd rather stay up all night than that), studying Yeats (shudder), doing university applications and personal statements, no spoiler warnings (what good is a title of "Spoilers: We all know when Aeris died..." to the newbies?), Carol Vordeman pop-ups.
Hobbies: reading, writing, drawing, remembering long poems by heart, bursting into song randomly, yoga, writing lyrics on my homework.
Talents: Not singing. Or art. Or getting wasted. But I can read fast, and I like to believe my writing is okay (it amuses me and that's what counts). And I rock at maths (and it sickens me).
Strong Points: I'm random (which I think is good). I'm fanatical in my loves which is also a plus (for some things, not for others). I'm nice to most people I meet (which scares some). And I have a most disgusting hope in life that everything will turn out well (as Izzy from GA says, "I believe in the good").
Weak Points: I'm stubborn in a bad way. I can't spell to save my life or speak well (but I'd love to enter the world of "Pride and Prejudice" and just let it rip on the witty reparte). I procrastinate and freak out too much and can't make decisions. I'm quiet and awkward and reserved and extremely clumsy. And impatient with my little sister or English or Biology teachers. Pretty much people who have just taken annoying to a new level (but can't be rebuked about it).
Favorite Color: Some shades of green, gray, blue and lately brown.
Number One Goal: To stop wasting my life. Or at least to get off my hide and learn to play piano properly.
Optimistic or Pessimistic: More optimistic (I'll never admit that a situation is completely unsalvageable)
Hyper, Calm, or "Normal" Energy: Depends. Not usually calm- more dazed if anything. Usually "Normal" but I can be pretty hyper if occasion demands (which again scares people).
Impulsive or Cautious: A bit of both. I'll try to be cautious, and then impulsively choose something completely different.
Outgoing or Shy: I'm really quite shy. Well, not shy in that I don’t want to talk to people, just that I don't know what to say to people. So I usually say nothing.
Mature or Immature?: Heheh... Probably mature normally, but I can be immature if my mood leads me to it.
Leader or Follower?: Definitely a follower. I can work on my own, but when in a group I take responsibility for zilch.
Assume the following each have "and why" at the end.
Who is your favorite Final Fantasy VIII character? I love Squall, because I can't help but feel sorry for him throughout the story, with the positions he’s put in and the way everyone forces things on him (even if he needs it). I also love Laguna, for very different reasons (he’s so extreme and I sympathise with the terrible choice he had to make and where it left him). But then I also love Rinoa and Selphie... Urgh, this is hard!
Who is your least favorite Final Fantasy VIII character? Umm... Probably Kiros. I don't know why, but that guy's stance in battle and attack just annoyed me (to the point where I killed him off at the start of most battles and died at the ruby dragon...)
You find 1 million dollars on the street. Would you keep it or turn it in? I would ponder for a few days before eventually turning it in (and then waiting by the phone for weeks, hoping they'll call and say no one claimed it).
What are the 3 top characteristics you look for in a friend? kindness (because you have to be good at reaching out to people if you want to befriend me- it takes a lot to get through to me), personality (people who are individual- not unique, because we are all unique, but who are themselves, are creative or random or funny or bizzarre or nice or whatever, and who don't really follow with the norm just because it's the norm. What I’ve found is that most of my friends are also social rejects. But then so am I) and passion (I really can't stand people who seem to be completely indifferent or passive to everything- I like a little mad frenzy or emotion- just something that makes people's eyes light up when it's mentioned).
What is your fighting style? For FFVIII, it's take 'em for all they're worth and then blow the bejeebus out of them with the gunblade. Or have a lot of fun and just let them slowly die from poison while they're asleep. For real life, it's aim low, run and pull the cord out of my rape alarm (and hope they don't have a sledge-hammer).
Pictures (optional): Don't have. But I'm medium height, shortish darkish hair (which flicks out irrationally to the side, very Selphie), pale complexion, freckles, greeny coloured eyes (in morning light. In normal light, they have gray, blue and brown to them too), glasses (which I don't need most of the time, but I wear them because if I don't, I'll lose them). People have rarely said I'm pretty (or I would be if I lost the glasses and wore make-up)- but often only in a really surprised voice and at a bar. And I can't take compliments and think they were just being nice, so I'll say I'm average-looking.

(That was all that was open...)
Anything else?: I couldn't shut up there. Sorry. (Oh and please don't limit the list to girls, just because I am one. I think I suit the FFVIII boys more so than the girls).
