PERSONALITY & HOUSE REQUESTS: PREFERRED CHOICE: Is it okay to say hope she's a third year?
C.C. is a a perfect canidate for Ravenclaw. For a house that excels at mind over matter, wisdom, experience and wit, there could be no better student. Contrary to her lazy, often detached demeanor, C.C. is exceedingly shrewd. Her tongue is as much a weapon as her powers are, and regardless of your position, status, or opinion towards her, C.C. does not hesitate to use it to speak her mind and make clear her feelings on you, the world, and the people around her. And with centuries and centuries of living? There are few who can tell it the way she can. And even fewer who can unravel a person as she does with Lelouch, and many other characters, both negatively and positively. She is very much a realist, and her blunt way of speaking the truth is not always easily received. When the main character, Lelouch, begins to realize the repercussions of his actions, C.C. coolly tells him that he was in essence "a naive boy with ideals in his head" and that once he makes a decision, he better finish it or he has no right to continue his goals. She reminds him that this was the path he chose to take, and once he chose it, he can never go back to the way he was before. Her first warnings to him when making their fateful contract, are that if he seeks power, he must be aware that "it will make him lonely". True enough, Lelouch's powers grant him unparalleled influence to aid his ambitions, and yet, as she warns him, he becomes very much alone. Her bluntness is not without weight and she does not spare it, not even for her accomplice. While most people often see Lelouch as a collected individual with flawless manners and charisma, C.C. ‘s insight immediately cuts through all of this, to the conflicted, ambitious soul within.
C.C. can be not only clear, but extremely cryptic, and can speak quite cleverly. Speaking in riddles and strange sayings, C.C. often requires both the watcher and the listener to dwell on what was said to understand the real meaning of her words. "Lelouch, why are you Lelouch? " She asks her partner during a campaign in Narita, leaving him to reply that he has no interest in discussing philosophy. Instead of answering him with what might usually be a clear retort or mocking word, C.C. instead responds with yet another riddling question: "Do you know why the snow is white?" In reality, C.C. is actually speaking of herself, and not the snow. Her answer is not easily read, and only near the end of the arc does Lelouch realize what she means by the answer. She is not speaking of "snow that has forgotten it's color" but of an immortal being who has forgotten the meaning and memory of having humanity after centuries of existence. Such instances like these show how skillfully C.C. can impart information without even revealing what that information was. In episode fourteen of Season One, C.C. cleverly uses herself as bait to aid Lelouch with one of his adversaries, making it look as if she were saying goodbye when in all actuality, she was simply offering herself instead. With her ability to look completely honest with her words, it was not hard to do.
And perhaps above all else, despite her obvious intelligence, C.C. is wise and experienced. After endless ages of living, she has the history of countless lifetimes and civilizations behind her youthful face, and the brunt of human cruelty, hatred, and sorrow branded in her heart. She tells Lelouch once that she "could do anything" but that she chooses not to because she doesn't feel like it, she has done so much. She has seen so much... While she is as much an equal and his sole confidant, she is just as much his guide. One of her greatest assets to Lelouch is her experience with both the history behind the Geass, her experiences in war and the nature of humankind, and her own wise personality offering him advice he could find little elsewhere. She can bear the gravest of secrets and the most difficult of problems and always deal with it in a calm and unfettered manner. C.C. tells Lelouch in the early section of season one that if he has a desire to protect anything, he must distance himself if he has something worth keeping. With a sharp retort towards her, C.C. responds simply with one sentence: "It's a way of life." C.C. tends to be somewhat of an observer over the events of Code Geass as much as a participant, and her own voice narrates each event of the series with insightful words on the nature of humankind and the paths that Lelouch must take, something that only someone with true experience, someone who has lived so much longer, and seen so much more than others, could do. With knowledge, wisdom beyond a single human life and razor-sharp wit, C.C. would hardly have any trouble being in the smartest and wisest Hogwarts House.
SECOND CHOICE: While C.C. would without a doubt fit best with Ravenclaw, she has qualities that could still make her eligible for Slytherin, one being her arrogance, her independence, and her sly nature.
C.C. is not an unselfish woman. As someone who has been isolated, mistreated, and brutalized through the ages, she is not someone who will immediately go out on a limb for another. She puts herself first, and when she has something she wants, she doesn't really care how she has to go about getting it. For example, when with Lelouch she often uses his credit card to pay for her obssession: Pizza Hut and it's franchise. When he replies that she is a selfish, willful woman, she smartly responds, "Of course. That's precisely why I am C.C." Selfishness, self-preservation, is second-nature to her. She has had no choice. In the beginning of the series she started out only using Lelouch as a means to end her own life, to 'fulfill her wish'.
With being as old as she is, C.C. has no problem telling it how she sees it and feeling as if she is entitled to feel that way. With her response of saying her name as if it is a great equalizer for her own actions, C.C. does not come across as an insecure character. She drapes herself across Lelouch's bed when they first meet and dresses herself in his clothes, flippantly replying that, "Boys sleep on the floor." When Lelouch dares to tell her that they are not finished discussing the situation, C.C. coldly wishes him goodnight, and ends it, on her own terms. When Lelouch shows C.C. concern at times, her usual response is a smirk, and a coy question of: "Who do you think you're talking to?" As if the very notion was absurd. Of course later in the series we realize that C.C. in actuality appreciated this sort of concern but her arrogance can easily be a shield to hide whatever real emotions she is feeling.
And last but not least, C.C. can be teasing, and even cruel. She loves to tease some of the main characters, no one is exempt, and she has no trouble putting them on the spot when the moment doesn't call for it. For example, Kouzuki Kallen, a hotheaded protagonist and soldier for Lelouch, often faces the brunt of C.C.'s jibes with her easily riled-up nature. C.C. will often call her, "Bunny-girl, or simply "girl", and has no trouble teasing her on her obvious feelings for Lelouch. "We don't like when you keep things from us, " Kallen tells her when Lelouch and C.C. switch roles for a mission. But in typical C.C. fashion, she glances her over, and simply smirks in reply: "You mean you don't like it." Easily singling out her jealousy and keeping a smirk on her face. The witch can be downright nasty if you get on her bad side, and if you are such an unfortunate individual, such as Tamaki, who dared to call her 'Zero's whore' her expression can become chilling, and her teasing nature becomes ruthless as she responds: "Says a man with dirty thoughts. You pathetic yokel." And yet she never keeps away that slightly teasing, slightly mocking way of speaking to others out of her voice. She often addresses the prideful Lelouch with not just his name, but simply the words, "boy" showing just how little she cares for people's button's being pressed if she finds it amusing to her. While her canon-point has softened her heart to a good degree, this teasing part of her, is not gone, nor is her capacity to use it as a way to cut off any offender if they dare to cross her.
COMMUTER DETAILS: Not tapped.
POSITION: Student
ORIENTATION: Heterosexual? Unknown really.
ABILITIES & POWERS: Immortality. You can behead her, burn her alive, C.C. will not die. Her body will slowly regenerate itself from no matter how grievous the wound. As for the red sigil on her forehead, when it starts to glow, C.C. usually invokes some sort of power that when she comes into contact with a person, even if they are within a sort of vehicle, can send them into a strange dimension (within their own mind) where they are hit with often traumatizing images of the past, future events and even memories of their own life all in the span of minutes. An example of this is when C.C. touches Suzaku Kururugi's Knightmare and reduces him to a trembling, babbling mess not soon after, still within the enclosed space of his cockpit. People with the strongest of psyches, hidden deeds and buried secrets are not impregnable to C.C.'s abilities.
WAND: Phoenix-tail feather, Pine, Rigid. 11 inches. Specializes in Dark Arts and Transfiguration.
MISC: C.C. will be carrying a large yellow plush named Cheese-kun. It is very important to her! And there is also a pink crane she carries with a suitcase and a black hat.
WRITING SAMPLES
FIRST PERSON:
[ A girl with long green hair stares quizzically down at her book, flipping through it idly. ]
Interesting. I really don't remember this being the reason for the Salem Witch Trials. You could say I'm pretty experienced with history...
[ she flips through another page, licking her fingers absentmindedly as she reaches for a box of pizza sitting next to her, reaching down for another slice. ]
That reminds me. I want to know why this House Cup is so important. I know everyone loves to stoke their egos, but some of us actually want to know what rewards we get out of it besides points, or does no one ever think about these things? Pizza would be nice. I like the Great Hall just fine, but the pizza we get isn't the same as Pizza Hut, you know.
[ she shuts her book with a surprising snap, her expression as blank as before. ]
By the way, if you see a Slytherin named Lelouch, tell him I'm not responsible if his Hufflepuff brother ends up with his book landing on his head. His skill at levitation is horrible, I'm only protecting myself and doing us a favor.
[ it's then that you realize, that C.C. was sitting Indian-style a few feet above the ground the entire time she was talking. With a quirky little smile, she shuts off the feed. ]
SECOND PERSON:
Really, she was already a witch before. Was this wand-waving necessary?
As she sat outside reading one of the tomes she was given, she couldn't help but find the irony in a place where she was surrounded by witches. Her amber eyes flicked over the assigned reading, musing at the very supported information of witches throughout history, and couldn't help but be a little amused that she wasn't mentioned. "I suppose I wasn't the only one. Then again, this is another world. Don't you think so too?" She queried to the yellow plush sitting beside her, waving her wand briefly so that it began to slowly rise off the ground, landing with a soundless rustle into her lap.
Traveling the world again had been fine. The Requiem had only been two months prior and with the peaceful hayride she hadn't minded too much. Of course, that was before she came here and saw so many memories cherished come to life once more; particularly a certain impertinent, interesting boy who she had gone on many escapades with in their two year span together. C.C. let a quiet, nostalgic smile tug at her mouth, a smile safe to show in the solitude of her reading despite the many noises going on around her. "A magic different from Geass--... I wonder..." She continued her quiet musings on the grounds with little interruption. Of course, until she started getting hungry...
ooc; Thank you very much for reading my app! I will be out of town without my laptop until this Sunday, so if I have revisions, can we work something out? Thanks again. :)
