STAMPED; ANTITHESIS THEME
Basics
Name: Lecretia
Nickname: Cretia, Crish, L, Cat-chan
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Personality
Describe yourself: Crap, open-ended questions (saved this one for last). Er... I'm a determined individual who dislikes to admit defeat (even if I haven't yet finished something, rather than telling myself it's a forsaken cause I simply say that it will get done eventually... my drive will come back, again). I like being a strong, independent individual and making people believe I don't need 'em (and I generally don't... it's only specific people I need); truthfully, I'm very dependent upon my family. I feel like I'm a contradiction at times... I'm a very detail-oriented and nitpicky perfectionist, but I can also be the laziest, easy-going bum. I guess it depends upon my mood.
What are your talents? Er... I'm good with grammar and math. I am good at drawing (not so much at drawing what I picture in my mind but at recreating a picture right in front of me - I'm good with detail). I have strong visual-spacial abilities (which is probably why I'm good at math and drawing). I have good rhythm/syncopation.... oh yeah, and I can burp the alphabet.
What are you not so good at? Hm... staying on top of things, which is funny because I like to be organized; however, sometimes I'm just not motivated. I can't sing well (my range sucks, and I have subpar tone and pitch recognition). I have trouble finishing what I start (I have more fun creating new ideas and starting on them then staying through the long haul and finishing them). I stink at communication and reading comprehension... to understand what's being said and asked and then responding in kind. I r needz minit to think, kthnx.
When do you feel most secure? Around family and close friends. Most especially my mother and sister. I love 'em to death.
What makes you uncomfortable? Guys who have a crush on me (I'm on my 5th one right now! UGH! Why do I end up getting the attention versus my friend who wants a boyfriend but can't seem to get one?). Sexual/suggestive humor around guys (especially the ones who have crushes on me). I'm sorry, but I'm just not interested in being in a relationship. Haven't ever been, and I highly doubt that's going to change soon in the future.
Are you more...
Optimistic/Pessimistic? Optimistic. But I consider myself an optimistic realist... or realistic optimist. Either or. But I have been known to go through my pessimistic times. I just try to keep them minimal. I fair better when I'm more positive. My optimism is a necessity since I always seem to make mistakes (or at least it feels like I do).
Bold/Timid? Hm... bold when I need to be, but I tend to generally stay quiet. I wouldn't consider myself timid, persay... I'm just not prone to make myself known. I prefer standing on the sidelines and observing.
Calm/hyper? Generally calm, but I can get pretty darn hyper with the right incentive.
Cerebral/Emotional? Pretty close to half and half, though I probably lean a little more to the emotional side. I love to sit, think and observe. I could probably be defined as "cool", - not cool as in what's the fad at the time, but cool as in detached. I like to appear strong, independent and my own person. If you were to imagine me as someone, I would probably be like Fai - I'm polite, friendly, and kind in how I interact with others, but I'm closed off. However, I get attached to things as well and I tend to be more emotional and caring around those I love and who matter to me. I'm also compassionate - I dislike hurting others.
Princess Tutu Related
The Raven's blood amplifies a person's weaknesses and darknesses. If you became infused with Raven's blood, how would you change? I'm a very proud and stubborn individual, and the Raven's blood would end up magnifying that until I'm too proud to compromise or admit I'm wrong. I wouldn't be able to adapt or change. I would always desire to be the one in power and on top of things.
On the flip side...
The Hope shard, as the pendant that transforms Ahiru into Princess Tutu, could be in one sense a manifestation of the strongest parts of herself. If you were transformed similarly with the shard, what kind of a being would you become? My mom always told me I had a bleeding heart, so I would probably become very compassionate. I dislike hurting other people and their feelings, so I would probably become more aware and perceptive about the those around me. And I would probably be more determined, passionate, and dedicated about what I love.
If there's one thing you could change about Princess Tutu's plot, what would it be? I'd like to know/see more before and after the story. I'd like to see Drosselmeyer's and Prince Siegfried's pasts before PT happened. I would love to see Princess Kraehe's, Princess Tutu's, and the Knight's previous incarnations in the original story. And now that Prince Siegfried has finally returned to his true form, I would love to see more of him and Rue together. And, darnit, I wanna see more Fakir/Ahiru interaction (not necessarily as a romantic couple, but just a couple... I think the duo complement each other so beautifully).
If there's one thing you could change about your favorite character, what would it be? Nada. I don't want to change the four or Drosselmeyer at all.
Note to voters: The next question involves knowing what character this member was stamped as. If you'd rather not know this so as not to affect how your vote will go, don't highlight. :P
Reflect on your regular stamped character(s). Why did people vote you as that character? What characteristics do you personally think you share in common with the character, and what do you think differs? Highlight for answer: Well, I was stamped as Ahiru. Several people mentioned that I was a mixture of Ahiru and Fakir, but that my Ahiru-ish personalities shined through most. And I'm going to have to say that I agree with them. My personality overall is quite like Ahiru (I'm very friendly, helpful and determined), but I have Fakir's stubborn, proud, detached personality as well. Answer ends here.
