The World Ends With You (theme application)
Name: Yin
Previous Stamps: The Silent Hero {Hero Type}; Yunica Tovah {Mirror Theme}
Give a brief description of your personality: I try to see the good in everyone and live by the policy of "forgive and forget," I hardly ever get jealous of other people, I’m understanding, and I try to avoid conflict if at all possible. I’m incredibly shy and withdrawn around other people, and I don’t really have a lot of confidence in my own abilities. I tend to worry about things that I have no control over, and I can be a bit immature and childish at times. I’d probably much rather run away from problems than simply deal with them head-on, and I can be really naïve (my family and friends will often tell me that I don’t act with common sense). I tend to probably be way more polite than is necessary in most social situations too, for some reason.
List some of your positive traits: Caring, observant, creative, playful, polite, and understanding.
... and some of your negative traits: Shy, anxious, daydreamer (from the stance that I sometimes have to be reminded to keep myself grounded when I let my mind wander), naïve, lazy, and indecisive.
What are your interests?: Daydreaming, cute things, and good stories.
... and your dislikes?: Character/couple bashing (even if I disagree with someone's point of view, I like remaining open minded and respectful of their opinions), unnecessary fights, and people who are intentionally cruel to others.
Are you more...
Outgoing or Reserved: Very, very shy...I don't really dislike people or anything, I just have a really hard time getting the confidence I need to talk to others comfortably. It's something I need to work on, but it's a trait that's really hard to change. I'm able to be a bit more open around family and close friends though.
Energetic or Calm: Somewhere in-between for the most part, although I do have moments of extreme hyperactivity and calmness.
Cautious or Impulsive: It can depend on the situation, but I think I tend to be more reserved/cautious overall since I'm always worrying about things anyway.
Stoic or Emotional: This really depends on what's going on around me. At times, I probably come across as if I wear my heart on my sleeve and my emotions probably show quite a bit in my face, eyes, or body language even if I don't vocalize them...but I can be very stoic, numb, and almost detached in certain instances as well, especially when something really traumatic or sad happens (such as in the past when a loved one has passed away).
Peaceful or Aggressive: I can be aggressive at times, but I've noticed that any aggression on my part tends to fade away relatively quickly after the urge passes. I'm more peaceful for the most part, probably.
Confident or Insecure: Haha, I'm almost self-deprecatingly modest at times and tend to lean more towards being insecure to the point where I hardly ever see value in my own work (even if someone tells me something I've done is good, I always doubt it in my head). I think that's partially due to my anxiousness and confidence issues, but aside from joking and occasionally acting that way online or with people I'm familiar with...I'm not a very confident person.
Leader or Follower: A follower, definitely...I'd constantly be worried about making the wrong decisions if I was placed in a position of leadership. And I'm not sure I could be strict enough in enforcing policies and what-not, so I'd probably be a somewhat ineffective leader at that.
Optimistic, Pessimistic, or Realistic: I'd rather see the silver lining to things, so I guess I'm more of an optimist at heart (though with probably some more realistic tendencies at times depending on certain situations).
You've ended up as a player in The Game. What do you hope your partner will be like? That they're someone I could rely on in the immediate future. We wouldn't have to necessarily get along, but I'd at least like to have a sense that we'd be able to work together in a competent manner. Hopefully they would have a personality that would help me to feel at least a LITTLE at ease around them despite my rather nervous nature when it comes to working in groups.
How do you feel about having a partner in the first place? Would you like to get to know them better or would you rather be on your own? I'd probably be okay with having a partner. Truthfully, I tend to prefer being by myself in most situations (especially if the alternative is perhaps to have to team up with someone who is a total stranger at first) due to my shyness and everything unless I'm already familiar with someone and we seem to get along pretty well. However, there are situations where that isn't really a smart idea...and The Game would definitely count as one of those. In that case, I'd like to get to know my partner better if I don't already know them. Once I've been around someone for a little while and figure out how we work together, I can become a bit more relaxed and comfortable around them. I'd also just be curious about who they are and what their goals are too, from a trust perspective. It's fine if they wouldn't want to tell that to me for whatever reason, but ideally hopefully it would be nice to be able to count my partner as a friend in a way due to what we'll be going through together for awhile either way.
... and what role do you think you'd play in the team? Would you heroically charge in first? Offer motivation from the side? Just try to throw tin pins at everything? Haha, I'd probably try to offer support and motivation from the side WHILE throwing pins at just about everything. XD I might even try my hand at healing and defensive actions too if my partner wants to be more of the head-on attacker or something. I'd want to contribute an equal amount to the combat at least, whatever fighting style I have, since it would be kind of unfair for them to be doing all of the work considering we're in this together.
Time for your first mission! You have 3 hours. How would you approach it? Nervously freak out, try to do it as quickly as possible, slow and steady, try to make it fun...? I'd be rather nervous considering what's at stake, but I'd probably try to approach the mission from an as quickly as possible standpoint while still trying to be calm and thinking things through (we have a time limit, so it's important to complete the task before then). It would be nice if we could have some fun while completing the mission perhaps, but it wouldn't really be necessary and I probably wouldn't want to make it a requirement in case we lost focus or something.
What would you do in your free time? Go shopping? Watch people? Stare at the ground and brood? Abuse the mind reader skill...? Haha, I think I'd probably be rather curious to watch people and see what they're doing or where they're going from a corner of the street or something (using the mind reader skill all the time might be a bit too invasive for me). Or maybe I'd be curious about trying some of the different food in the various restaurants around the area as well. It might depend on what my partner wanted to do too since its their free time also, and it might help us to get to know one another better if we hanged out more doing things both of us were interested in.
Even if they may not see you, you're constantly surrounded by people in this city. How do you feel about humanity as a whole? I think that there are good and bad aspects of human nature...and that, more often than not, a combination of both exists in everyone. What one considers "wrong" or "right" can often change depending upon one's perspective of a situation or the world in general. I’d like to believe that most people are simply trying to live their lives in peace though, and aren’t out for one another’s blood.
You've managed to survive to the end! Is there anything that you hope has changed about you in the process? Hopefully, I'll have learned to become a bit more assertive in a way and perhaps a bit more confident in my capabilities. Learning to cherish and appreciate what I have more might be a rather nice change as well since that something I think people can take for granted sometimes without even realizing it. :)

Have you played this game? If so, did you like it? I did play the game, and I really loved it! ♥ The World Ends With You is actually one of my favorite DS RPGs and is one of my favorite Square-Enix titles as well. :D
Is there any character you don't want to get? Not really, I'm just curious to see who I might end up getting! Haha, I didn't even wait too long after Breyzy posted hers to post my application because of that...sorry if that's confusing! XD
