[ Personality ] : Lemony Snicket is an extremely paranoid individual. Being raised in a cult-like environment that soon tore itself apart, transforming friends into enemies and enemies into killers, tends to have that sort of effect on people. He is constantly in hiding in unknown locations, or switching locations, or crying deeply into his pillow at night wishing he hadn't left that last location, or perhaps left the vital photograph in that second-to-last location, or being generally mournful, as he is wont to do. He tends to take photographs of things that are vital to remember, that could be vital to remember, or for reasons that he can't really remember now, but is sure it will come to him later. He writes things obsessively, taking notes whenever he can, and pores over old books, letters, and pages he's found in a fountain for codes or messages.
To say he's secretive is to grossly underestimate his abilities. He hides, he watches, he waits. He's generally impossible to get a hold of. Many people used to know his face, but many of them are also dead now, and cannot share his features. He's constantly disappearing around corners and down alleyways, afraid that enemies may be lurking, perhaps with matches, lighters, torches or flame-throwers in tow. He writes in code, even if he's unsure as to whether or not his recipient knows the code, and sometimes he doesn't write in code, but makes it look as if he has, to throw off any wayward readers.
He's also incredibly romantic. He has a curious way with words, though that curious way with words often tends to drone on and on in an inexplicable fashion, where he gets carried away and is incapable of stopping at the right time, because he has to add all the points he can to make his similes and metaphors work, unless the sentence has nothing to do with similes or metaphors, and then it just gets confusing. He likes to send seven-page confessions of love to women he's fallen hopelessly in with, and can't seem to stop himself from typing or crying, usually simultaneously, which makes it very difficult to see the typewritten pages and usually leads to heavy edits and heavier tears.
He has a wide range of knowledge about literature and writing styles, as well as codes and anagrams. He studied mostly literary arts while in the organization's comfortable hideaways, and can use quotes on a whim, though sometimes these quotes get confusing, and are difficult to understand contextually. He also seems to know something about theatrics, both of the coded and uncoded kind, as well as both the theatrical and motion-picture kind. He seems to know enough about chemistry and how basic things break down to be able to spout the ingredients of things at will (like root beer). He knows a lot about science, at least enough to teach the most boring evaporation lesson of all time.
He tends to ramble, but that may only be a rumor. He tends to be sad, too, but that certainly is fact, if the regret-heavy tears adorning this application are anything to assume by.
