Soul Society
Name/Nickname: Seri
Age: 23
Likes: Intelligent and witty people, books, anime, manga, action/adventure video games, stand-up comedy, rock music, watching documentaries, trawling the net for no particular reason for hours on end.
Dislikes: Narrow-minded/overly zealous people, rice, maths, hot weather, having to finish assignments on time.
Strong points: I consider myself quite intelligent and well-spoken, I’m reasonable, I’m polite and I listen to other people very well. I’ve also got a good head for details and can see things from multiple viewpoints with no problem.
Weaker points: That good head for details makes me notice all the wrong things about something/someone, I can come off as quite cold and aloof to people I don’t know because I’m very shy and find it difficult to talk to people, and I’m a champion procrastinator.
Hobbies &/or Talents: Reading, mostly fantasy and historical fiction (though I’m beginning to branch out into paranormal romance for some reason), writing sometimes, video games, the internet, and a bit of sewing and knitting.
Favorite color: Green, especially dark green. I love pine forests.
Favorite animal: Dolphins and whales; I’ve always been in awe of their intelligence and how complex they are.
Favorite season: Autumn. Crisp and lovely without being too cold. Even spring is too warm for me!
Mature or Immature: Mature, though I can act immaturely around those I’m close to.
Leader or Follower: Follower, though I work best by myself and quite dislike taking orders from anyone.
Outgoing or Shy: Very shy. I even find it hard to talk to friends on occasion.
Confident or Modest: Modestly confident. ;) I believe in myself enough to get the job done, but I don’t see myself as particularly special or talented most of the time.
Optimistic, Pessimistic, or Realist: Realistic; things aren’t going to stay either bad or good forever. Situations change, and I guess you have to roll with them whatever comes.
Low, medium, or high energy level: High energy mentally; I can stay awake for literally days and be alert for a good amount of that time, but physically medium to low energy.
Goals in life: Not very much; at the moment, find a halfway decent job that pays enough for me to live comfortably. I nearly have my teaching degree, so I’ll probably be looking into using that. A real dream come true would be if I had the opportunity to write some books and actually get them published.
Favorite quote & why: “Hell is other people.” - Jean-Paul Satre. It sounds horrible, but it feels like that sometimes for me, not because people are bad (they’re fascinating and inspiring, a lot of the time), but because they’re so hard for me to interact with. Everything would be much simpler if I didn’t have to deal with people on a regular basis.
Describe your personality in three words or more: Introverted, intelligent, introspective
Favorite character & why: Renji, for his confidence, his loyalty and his devotion to those he considers friends, and his capacity to forgive. It takes a big man to take what Byakuya put him through and still stick around. I’m really fond of Rukia too, because she’s strong and competent and she seems the type of person that doesn’t let herself be defined by any particular thing; she’s just herself most of the time (if that makes sense!).
Least favorite character & why: Tousen, because with his twisted world-view and his unswerving belief that he is right, he’s exactly the type of person I despise. I’ve never liked Aizen either, though that’s more because he seems to have no backstory or reason to do the things that he has, other than the fact that he can. Byakuya’s arrogance has always rubbed me the wrong way too.
Anything else: Be gentle?
