【 About Yourself... 】
The way I interact with people online isn't the same way I interact with people IRL: IRL, I prefer small groups. I don't like being around groups bigger than, say, eight or nine people. I can communicate and talk and all, I just drain very fast when I'm forced to interact with large groups. It's worse if I'm out with people I don't know that well, because most people I meet IRL just don't share my interests and it makes it really difficult for me to find common ground with them. Online, however - well, if I'm talking to you online, we most probably met through some kind of shared interest (like FF!), so I'm probably more inclined to be open and friendly and chatty. I'm also pretty obvious about my emotions most of the time.
Other things - I'd consider myself intelligent and intellectual (they're not the same to me); I enjoy learning things and solving puzzles. I need to feel like I'm thinking because I hate the feeling of rotting away mentally, so I'm happiest when I have puzzles to solve and things to learn. I usually pick things up pretty quickly, too, which helps, I guess. I consider myself compassionate and I try to see a situation from different perspectives in order to be as fair as possible. Being fair is pretty important to me, and I tend to be firm about my beliefs, so I try to stay close to them. I don't always succeed, but hey, I can try. I can also be pretty perfectionistic when things are important to me; when they're not, I'm a great deal more slipshod. I also react very badly to guilt-trips: I can be very critical of myself and I'm probably good enough at guilting myself without someone adding to it.
When I'm more comfortable I tend to fall into a more relaxed, snarky (and yes, gutter jokes abound in this mode) attitude. I don't generally like hurting others, but dislike is not the same as won't. I can, and more to the point, I will if I think it's necessary, although if I have to I'll try to make it quick and clean. Unless I'm that upset, which... I don't usually get. I'm protective of friends and family even if I have disagreements with them sometimes - as I said, I don't generally like hurting others, and I like seeing people I care about get hurt even less. I'd frankly be a lot happier solving arguments peacefully, as a rule, though.
Other than that... I can be impatient with people - usually it occurs when I think people are not willing to learn, which drives me up the wall. I tend to assume I'm the weakest link in any party right up until I get confident in my abilities, which can be a bit of an issue because, as I said, I'm a perfectionist. I'm also ridiculously stubborn and opinionated; I need to voice my opinion and have it heard. (I'd make a terrible nameless flunky. I snark too much.)
Positive Traits: intelligent, compassionate, witty, determined, loyal, creative
Negative Traits: snarky, stubborn, over-emotional, temperamental, procrastinator, sarcastic
To clarify: I'm actually usually calm, but when something gets me upset (as opposed to annoyed), I fly straight off the handle. It takes a bit to get me upset, basically, but once I do I usually react rather irrationally.
Please list some of your dislikes: I don't like people guilt-tripping me, and I don't like wanton cruelty.
What is the first impression that you give others?: Apparently I am "warm and inviting, like a cosy blanket."
How are you described by those who know you?: Asked a couple of friends. "Erudite, compassionate and supportive."
【 Are you more... 】
A realist, an idealist, an optimist or a pessimist: Optimistic/idealistic, can be realistic, definitely not a pessimist. I prefer to hope for the best.
Cautious or Impulsive: Cautious.
Calm or Hyper: Calm.
Trusting or Cynical: I lean towards the trusting side.
Leader or Follower: Second-in-command.
Introverted or Extroverted: Reserved.
Independent or Dependent: Depends on the situation...?
Persistent or Laid-Back: Persistent when it calls for it, go with the flow otherwise.
Confident or Modest: I don't really see these as opposites... but, all right. I'm confident of my self-worth, and once I'm certain of something I'm certain, but it takes me a long time to get to that point? If that makes sense.
【 General Questions... 】
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be? ...probably my indecision and my tendency to second-guess myself.
Do you enjoy conflict or do you seek to end it as soon as you can? I don't like conflict. Actually, I'd rather it not start in the first place, so when it happens I want to end it quickly with the best possible results for everyone.
Someone just cut in front of you in the store, when you've already been waiting for quite some time. How do you react? Honestly, it depends on my mood. I am going to be far snippier if I'm already in a bad mood, but other than that I'd probably shrug and deal with it.
Imagine yourself fighting in order to save the world, or to put an end to it depending on your ideals. What motivates you to fight? Would it be for the sake of the world, just because you felt like helping out, for a specific desire, for yourself? If you're going to fight to save the world, I... really hope it's for the sake of the world, myself. I know I'd be feeling the pressure, so it might as well be. (Admittedly it would be largely for that part of the world that I really care about. You don't hurt my friends or family. D: )
Speaking of fighting, would you play the offensive, defensive or supportive role? ...my ideal job class across various tabletop and video games is actually capable of doing all three, but leans towards defensive/supportive. I just like the ability to boom things when I want to, as well.
You've come across a powerful enemy, but are already aware you won't acquire anything tangible by beating it. Do you fight it anyway? Only if it's a threat.
