ICHA ICHA PARADISE BB
...................
THE BASICS
Name: Oliver (though most just call me "kid")
Age: 19
Gender: Male
...................
THE PERSONAL
Likes: Toast, tomatoes, quiet undisturbed places, vodka, cats, ferrets, blue shadows, honesty, art with a concept, short fiction, rainbows, shiny things, dancing in a crowded room, sex, keeping to myself, video games, roleplaying, cosplay, the smell of burning leaves, reading in a quiet room, grunge fashion, Dance Dance Revolution, sleeping, crime dramas, science fiction, cyberpunk, fantasy, foreign languages and linguistics, learning, dirty jokes, geckos, rats
Dislikes: Yellow artificial lighting, pathological liars, being alone for too long, being the center of attention in general, sudden loud noises, social politics, hangovers, complications, being treated like a girl, the cold, talking too much, conflict and confrontation, panic attacks, not being taken seriously
What do you feel is your best quality?: I try desperately to keep everyone around me happy, often at my own expense. Everyone tells me that's not necessarily a good thing, though, so I guess my best quality would be, in the words of my best friend, "You're small and cute and you make pretty pictures."
Your worst?: My best friend tells me I'm too nice. I have no point of judgment, most of the time.
Pet Peeves: Grating noises, dumb customers, gangstees, people picking on my friends, when the cat rubs against me when I've got my knee brace on
Dreams & Ambitions: I want to learn as many languages as possible in my lifetime. I want to get an education for the sake of getting an education. I'd like to have a job that doesn't make me struggle to make ends meet. I want the bad things and complications in my head to go away. I want to be able to keep on writing and creating art, regardless of whether anyone sees it.
Personality in 5 words or less: Ambivalent, visionary, fearful, colorful, nervous
...................
FAVORITES
Favorite Season: Autumn. My birthday is in autumn, but it's also the most peaceful and beautiful season. It also has the best scent.
Favorite Element: I don't have one.
Favorite Naruto character & why: I have a few but I guess it would be Hayate. He is quiet and unassuming, but still an inspiring character. If not him, then Kotetsu and Izumo, because everyone needs a dynamic pair of obnoxious pranksters.
...................
THIS OR THAT
Mature or Immature: Both at times, I guess. My best friend calls it the "Peter Pan Syndrome". I had to grow up too fast in some areas, and in some I'm still stunted.
Leader or Follower: I'm generally content to follow if the person leading is competent enough, but I can take charge if it's needed.
Optimistic or Pessimistic: I'm a realist. Or rather, I suppose the more accurate description is that I am both grossly optimistic and pessimistic at the same time.
Impulsive or Cautious: I may appear impulsive, but I'm too afraid of everything to be.
Outgoing or Shy: I'm more shy than people realize. I'm terrified of almost everyone I meet.
Hardworking or Laid-back: I guess I'd have to say hardworking, because I'm too nervous to be laid-back. Laziness gets me too, sometimes, though.
Hyper, Calm, or somewhere in-between: I'm only hyper when I'm manic. When I'm on a good level, I'm pretty quiet and level.
Modest or Bold: Modest.
Lover or Fighter: I hate conflict and confrontation with a passion. I'll only fight on someone else's behalf. Otherwise, I'm a lover.

SITUATIONS
You really don't like someone and find them in a heap of trouble. Would you ignore their pleas for help or give a helping hand?: Unless they've done something to really damage me or someone else I care about, I can't in good conscience leave them even if I don't like them.
When the going gets tough, do you stay your ground by yourself, call for help, or run away?: I guess it depends on the situation. I've done all three. I suppose I'm most likely to call for help.
Someone just cut in front of you in the store, when you've already been waiting 10 minutes. What do you do?: Just shrug it off. It's not a big deal.
NARUTO VERSE; Naruto has been following you around all day, trying to get you to teach him a new secret move he saw you do that he thought was cool. What do you do?: Knowledge is to be shared! Yay! I guess I'd trade it for something amusing. Naruto's cool in my book, I don't have a problem with it.
NARUTO VERSE; Would you rather be attacking up close and personal, hiding far off using a type of long range attacks, or not on the battle field at all? Somewhere in the middle. I'm no good with any sort of projectile, and I'm so small that I usually have no choice but to be up close. I'd probably fight with some sort of weapon, though -- like a blade or a knife.
NARUTO VERSE; Your friend has joined the "dark side" and wants you to join them. More power and money, they say. Would you join them? If this is the moral sort of "dark side" then probably not. But if it's one of those "dark side" only in perspective things, then what the hell.
...................
INSPIRATIONAL
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?: I'd want to be less ambivalent and fearful and more confident and trusting. I live in constant fear that everyone around me is going to abandon me, even though they all assure me that won't happen, and I desperately want to believe them.
If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?: I dunno. Fix the economy? Make social politics less complicated?
If you could become any character from the series for one day - 24 hours - who would it be?: Hayate.
If you were given the chance to permanently become part of the Naruto-verse (as "yourself"), would you take it?: Yes. It would be very difficult, emotionally, but I'm already messed up enough to be a ninja. *whistles* That aside, I'm more interested in being able to do what they do with their bodies. And aside from all of the killing and missions, et cetera, the world and setting they live in is very...quaint and attractive.
...................
Is there any character that you strongly would disagree with being voted as?: Not particularly. Hit me with your best shot.
