Prepare the new members for the fifth generation!
What team would you be on?
Name: Abelarda
Your previous stamp(s)/do you agree?
Regular application: Kapitel!Aya. I do see some similarities, although I'm generally nicer and not as vengeful and obsessive as him.
Kritiker theme: mission planner. Yes, I think it fits me quite well.
Mirror theme: Kapitel!Aya. I'm not sure... I have red hair and I wear long coats, but I think that my taste in clothes is quite different.
What is your dream home? An apartment in a big city, or maybe a house in some silent place? I don't like noise and too many people around me, but on the other hand, I'm used to a fast-paced life and I like being active. I guess I would choose an apartment in a big city, after all. With a forest nearby, if it's possible.
What do you expect from your teammates? Do you want to be friends with them, or only to be professional and capable? I want them to be professional and capable. I suppose I would start to care about them at some point, even if it would take me a lot of time, but I'd keep my distance. I don't believe that mixing work and personal life is a good thing.
What role can you see yourself fulfilling in your team (boss, assassin, strategist, someone behind the scene, etc.)? Probably a strategist, a mission planner, as I prefer to fight mentally. But if I have to fight physically, I'd prefer close combat, not a fight from a distance.
Favorite beverage: Coffee, because I'm addicted to caffeine; lately also pu-erh tea.
Favorite food: I don't care about meals that much. I eat to satisfy my hunger, that's all - a meal's quality or the way it is served doesn't matter. If I really have to choose: a rare steak.
Realistic or idealistic? Too realistic for my own good.
Egoistic or altruistic? Moderately altruistic. I can help when my help is needed, but I won't let anyone use me too much.
Kind or mean? Mostly kind. I may be mean when I'm in a bad mood, but not on purpose. I'm not a person who likes hurting people.
Gentle or rough? It depends. I can be rough, as I believe in telling the truth face to face, honestly and directly; but when I see that someone is already weakened, I'm usually acting a bit gentler; I'm not that cruel.
Do you think you are able to kill someone?
...to protect yourself or your beliefs? To protect myself, in self-defense - maybe, if it's an extreme situation. People normally have a very strong preservation instinct and I don't think I'm an exception here. But I don't think I could do it with cold blood. And as for my beliefs... well, probably not. My beliefs are mostly internal, as I'm a very introverted person, and I don't care if someone accepts them or not. Besides, one of my beliefs is not being too cruel...
...to protect people who are important to you? Yes, I suppose I could.
...to protect society? I don't like society as a whole; this term is too abstract as there are many kinds of people. Some individuals should be protected, some shouldn't. I may do something for the ones that I think that should be protected, but I would never call it "protecting the society".
Would you use someone in order to get what you want? Well, I do believe that sometimes the end can justify the means. I guess I could use someone for something that I consider as "greater good". But not only for myself. My morals are too strong for that.
One of your teammates ends up getting captured during a mission. Would you try to rescue the member, even while it means jeopardizing the mission? I don't know that, really. It depends on many circumstances: the mission's difficulty, my relations with the teammate... I guess I would at least try to find a way to get the mission done and save my teammate.
What if you are the captured member? Do you expect your team to rescue you? In that kind of situation every man wants to be saved, I suppose... But I'd try to rescue myself and not to count on them.
What do you think would be a reason of your joining any team (money, power, ideals, vengeance, loyalty, etc.)? Probably loyalty. Power is dangerous, as it corrupts people; I'm a bit too sceptic to believe in ideals and great words; there's no need for earning a lot of money if you may die in any minute living in one of the teams; and vengeance sometimes seems pointless.
Would you give up your freedom in order to reach your goal (money, revenge, etc.)? A man is never really free. It's just a matter of choosing the cage, that's all.
