His biggest fear is what is going happen to him in the future. If he is going to stay like he is forever or if age will creep up on him, since he seems to age very slowly. It’s more of a vanity thing but it scares him since he knows he is the man that will never die.

I like to think that Jack will become the Face of Boe and die at the senate of New New York after telling The Doctor “You Are Not Alone”. I think he would like that. I don’t think anyone will miss him since they would long dead.

While I decided to challenge myself with an original character called

Emmett Clarke, who I want to use in the short story I have to write for my short creative writing course.

1. What would your character kill for? What would they die for?

Emmett Clarke will kill for his country if he had the chance but is happy to be working for Army intelligence. He would also kill for Captain Lachlan Peters but he suspects that Lachlan would try to talk him out of it. He will die for the people above and his family including his father. He sometimes wishes that Lachlan won’t talk him out of it.

2. What would they refuse to do under any circumstances? Why?

Emmett will never betray his country and his fellow soldiers in the army since he knows what the consequences will be if his does.

3. What do they dream about?

He dreams about his mother who died when he was sixteen. He wonders why the memories are coming back to haunt him, the good and the bad. Lachlan sometimes pops up in his dreams with warnings but they are mostly sexual.

4. What’s their biggest fear?

That the war will never end. He always questions why they went to war in the first place and why the cause is such an important issue.

5. What single object would they be most hard pressed to part with? Why?

The gold ring that Lachlan gave him while they were on weekend leave since it symbolises that their relationship is more than a fling.

6. What is their fondest memory?

Meeting Lachlan three years ago in the officers’ lounge, even though the relationship started with an argument and a punch up.

7. What is their worst memory?

Saying goodbye to his best friend James who went off to join the air force only to be killed in action about four months after finishing his training.

8. What or who was their most significant influence? Expound.

Emmett would say his father because he taught him everything he needed to know. His father didn’t care about Emmett’s sexuality and was happy to talk about it with him. Emmett thinks his father is the most liberal person that his knows.

9. What do they believe makes a successful life?

Emmett doesn’t really know because he’s still trying to figure out the answer.  He is still wondering how he got to the point of becoming Lieutenant.

10. What makes them laugh?

The jokes that Lachlan tells him when they are alone together, the conversations he has with the other lower ranked officers and the amusing disturbing thoughts in his head.

11. What are their religious views?

Emmett believes that there is something out there but sees himself as an atheist. As the Army are now tolerant of other people’s cultures he doesn’t have to go to mass anymore but he sometimes goes if an officer or private has been killed in action. He respects others around him but doesn’t agree with religion in general.

12. What is their greatest strength?

Emmett doesn’t think he hasn’t any strengths but Lachlan always points out that he always listens to what other people have to say.

13. Do they have a fatal flaw? If so what is it?

Emmett seems to let himself think all the time, even when he is trying to sleep in the middle of the night. He lets the guilt of the deaths of his mother and best friend to enter into his head. Also he is guilty about the accident that left him with a limp.

14. Who is the most important person in their life?

At the moment Lachlan but sometimes he wishes it wasn’t. With both of them in the army he worries that Lachlan will get his wish and be shipped off to fight for his country. He really doesn’t want to lose Lachlan.

15. If they died, who would miss them the most them most? How would they die?

His father will miss him the most because of their very close relationship. Lachlan will miss him too but will honour Emmett’s wish for him to move on with his life. Emmett will probably die after a suicide attempt.
