Warp engines on maximum, Captain... let's go explore the Final Frontier.
BASICS
Name/Nickname: Anya Rose "Chinny" Ewing.
Age: Twenty.
Likes/Hobbies Hobbies = percussion, debate, drawing, painting, sewing/costume construction, fursuiting, programming. Likes = animals in general, cats in particular; science fiction of most varieties (Star Trek, Star Wars, Firefly, Battlestar Galactica, Hitchhiker's Guide, et cetera), British comedy (Monty Python, Eddie Izzard, et cetera), They Might Be Giants, bad-ass instruments (accordions, bagpipes), drinking large quantities of tea and the color blue.
Talents: Refer to the "hobbies" category in the previous question - I have the skills requisite to pursue each of those activities, with emphasis on the artwork, which is not only a hobby for me by a career. I am currently working on an undergrad degree in Animation with a concentration in Video.
Dislikes: Animal abusers, mean people.
THE PERSONALITY PART
Strong points: Optimistic, loyal to a fault, playful at heart (I'm a little big kid, I still like to tote around action figures and the like), tries to console everyone through their rough times in life, has a massive mothering instinct for cats and lives with several.
Weak points: Easily distracted, procrastinator who gets everything done at the last possible moment and looses sleep because of it, obsessive and a pack rat.
What do other people see you/describe you as?: The thing I am told most often is that I am the most genuinely open-minded person they know. I guess this is probably because not much bothers me, I am difficult to upset and as such rarely condemn anyone or anything.
EITHER OR
Add "why?" if at all possible.
Mature or Immature?: Both. Mature in an emotional capacity and in terms of handling responsibility, immature in that I intend to never grow up completely and still love toys, sleep in a giant pile of stuffed animals and play with action figures at the dinner table (hey, they like to go on 'space explorations' in the mash potatoes, okay?).
Leader or Follower?: Leader. More by example than by intention. My friends always seem to get into the same things that I do and accept my conclusions.
Outgoing or Shy?: Outgoing, but somewhat socially awkward! I can talk incessantly and feel fine in any situation but I'm not going to be proper about it, ahaha.
Confident or Modest?: Confident. I think it's healthy to love oneself and be proud of your own accomplishments, and I am.
Safe or Risky?: Hmm, gotta say Safe actually. Though I am impulsive and have done semi-dangerous spontaneous things, I do my research before heading into something important to make sure I handle it appropriately and that no lasting harm will come of my actions.
Optimistic or Pessimistic?: Optimistic by a long shot. Life definitely has it's downs but I love it and love pretty much everyone and everything in it.
Realist or Idealist?: Idealist. I'm a romantic and a dreamer.
Low, medium, or high energy level?: Depends on the time of day, ahaha. But at my peak (night), high energy level. :P
Listener or Speaker?: Both, but probably more of a speaker. I tend to share any information at all quite readily. I'm an open book.
Serious or Playful?: Playful, for sure. Life's no fun if you take everything seriously.
Impulsive or Cautious?: Impulsive. I go with my gut instinct or what seems right. Not always, though.
IN STAR TREK
So the Enterprise has been invaded by an outside force and is being threatened unless the captain surrenders the ship. (What else is new?) What would your reaction be in this situation? Would you panic? Nope, no panicking here. The situation would probably get my blood flowing with a jot of adrenaline that would make me a mite twitchier and more energetic, but I'd direct that energy into the task at hand and doing my job.
So now they've got you captured and are threatening you. It's either spill the beans about the secrets of the Enterpise or be killed on the spot. How long does it take for you to reach your breaking point? (Do you have one?) I'm a talker, but only about myself. I keep other people's secrets unless told I may do otherwise. I'd probably ramble about unrelated things to distract myself under torture, but I wouldn't spill. They'd have to use a truth serum on me.
And if you were on a ship of some sort, what kind of position (captain, medical officer, security guard, etc.) would you be comfortable with? I definitely wouldn't mind command but I don't think I'm aloof enough to make a good captain, at least not yet. I'd like to have a closer connection with the entirety of the crew. I wouldn't mind being a Second Officer, if the man or woman whose Number One I was commanded my respect.
