Application for Tomo Takino, "Azumanga Daioh"
((I got glomped by permission from Kagura-mun and Osaka-mun when I asked if I could do this. Be afraid. Be very afraid. XD))
The Sorting Room is silent for about a second. Then a faint rushing sound can be heard in the distance, steadily increasing in volume. Rushing gives way to rumbling and it seems as though the floor is starting to shake as the sound grows closer and closer. It sounds like an approaching stampede, or an oncoming train.
Or, in this case, a speeding Tomo.
A teenage girl comes charging into the room at top speed, screeching to a halt in front of the application and knocking over the podium it's sitting on, quill, inkwell, application and all. "YEAH! I made it! Whoo-hoo!" she cheers, oblivious to the mess she's just caused or the annoyed-looking house elf who comes out with a mop.
With no way to write her answers and lacking the sense to just ask for a new application and quill, she proceeds to answer the questions verbally. And loudly.
Very loudly.
1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
"I like all kinds of cheese. That string cheese stuff is awesome! I can eat a pound of it in five minutes! Wanna time me?"
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
"I don't know what Carrottop is, but the big purple dinosaur's going DOWN!"
3. What time is it where you are?
"Who cares what time it is? I'm here, aren't I? It's always time for a challenge!" She attempts to strike a pose, but is distracted when she sees her watch. "Oh, hey. Time for lunch!"
4. If you were Albus Dumbledore returned from the dead, which member of the Order of the Phoenix would you sexually harass? How would you harass them? If you are Albus Dumbledore, please answer as if you were Sirius Black.
"Who's this Dumbledore guy? What, is he a zombie? I'll beat up any zombie that tries to touch me! Bring it on! And I don't need to harass anyone - they'll be naturally attracted to my beauty and charm!"
She finally notices the snickering house elf and rounds on him. "What are YOU looking at?"
5. If you are pushing to be in:
A. Slytherin - please state the clever, witty name of the bar in which you bartend, in the dark.
"Tomo's Super-Awesome Sake Bar!" She succeeds in posing this time.
B. Gryffindor - Debate whether Harry should ultimately end up married to Fred or George. Use examples from a variety of world mythologies to bolster your argument.
"I don't know who these guys are, but if I had two guys after me I'd make them work for it! If he can't decide, Harry ought to set up a competition and have Fred and George fight it out and marry whoever wins!"
C. Ravenclaw - You guys are supposed to be smart. Explain why my desk is inundated with paperwork at all times, even though I’m constantly disposing of it.
"You must be like Yukari! She piles all her stuff up on her desk til it falls on top of somebody. You could use it as a weapon - crush Chiyo-chan your opposition with paperwork! Yeah!"
D. Hufflepuff - Prove you are not useless.
"USELESS? I'm not useless! You're just too dense to see how useful I really am! I can sing better than Yomi! I know all about hiccup cures! In fact, I singlehandedly saved the entire school from the living moldy bread demons! I'm the most energetic girl in my school. Want proof? I'll race you! Right here, right now!"
6. Offer a bribe to the members of this community so that they will not squib you. Items used in bribery do not necessarily have to belong to the person offering the bribe. Do not threaten us rather than offering a bribe. A threat indicates you either don't really want to be here, or don't have enough sense to answer the question properly. The hat will automatically squib you, regardless of other votes, if you do.
For a second, Tomo is actually speechless, looking blank at the notion of bribes. But just for a second, as she immediately snaps out of it and starts rummaging in her bag. "BRIBES? I got bribes! Fantastic bribes! Um... lemme see..."
Finally, she pulls out a slightly dented box and a sheaf of papers. "Chinsuko! And select entries from Yomi's diary!" Seeing the lack of response, she starts pulling out random stuff. "I got pens! And a Father hat! If you need me to fight anyone, I'll use my super karate chop on 'em! Or race 'em for ya!"
She bounces on her toes, unable to stay still even when in one place. "So? Do I get in?"
"I have read the hogwarts_hocus faq, and understand it is a crazy, cracktastic sorting community and RPG. _____TT_______
I have read the hogwarts_hocus rules and agree to abide by each and every one of them. Aww, do I have to? ______TT_____.
I agree to be a good sport and not get my knickers in a bunch. _____TT______.
One day, marmalade Tomo! will rule the world. ____TT_________"
((Yet another OOC note: May be slow to tag tonight. RL is being more distracting than usual.))
