Application for Brienne of Tarth (A Song of Ice and Fire)
1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
I've had many a fine cheese at King Renly's table, but truth be told, I'd not scorn any wholesome food these days. A simple country cheese, given freely or bought honestly, would please me most.
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
I would kill whichever one posed a danger to the Stark children or to Jaime Lannister.
3. What time is it where you are?
It is midday. There are still ample hours of daylight left for traveling, should I be turned away from this castle.
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.
Harassment of any kind is wrong and shameful. Has the Order of the Phoenix no honor?
Or ... is this a matter having to do with Albus Dumbledore returning from the dead? Those who have been dead, yet live, do not always listen to reason. I cannot say what I would do, were I a man resurrected by the Red Priest, except that such a man I think would care more for vengeance than for honor. So, as undead resurrected Albus Dumbledore, I might seek to harass the one whom I hated most in life, or who had wronged me and mine.
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.
Are you mocking me? Must I answer?
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.
Marriage does not suit everyone. Harry might choose to swear himself to the service of a worthy lord or king, rather than wed. If he must choose between Fred or George, he should choose whichever of the two has more honor, or else, the one who has saved his life.
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.
Now I know you must be mocking me. My muscles do not mean I am not as lettered as any other woman of my station.
You need a good maester and a good steward, and between them they will keep your chancery in order, or your desk, if you truly need assistance for one desk's worth of documents.
D. Hufflepuff - Prove you are not useless.
This ... would be difficult for me to argue, I confess it. I swore an oath to protect King Renly's life, and he died in my arms, shadow-slain. I swore an oath to bring Jaime safely to King's Landing, and I could not stop the Bloody Mummers from taking his hand. I have the blade Oathkeeper now, and I have more than one oath yet to keep.
I can only say I will keep trying.
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.
It's true they call Tarth the Sapphire Isle. I've no sapphires for you now. What would you have me offer? Must one truly buy her way into this place? I have a strong sword arm and I offer it for the defense of your castle, if need arises, then.
I have read the hogwarts_hocus faq, and understand it is a crazy, cracktastic sorting community and RPG. I so swear it. BT.
I have read the hogwarts_hocus rules and agree to abide by each and every one of them. I so swear it. BT.
I agree to be a good sport and not get my knickers in a bunch. I so swear it. BT.
One day, marmalade the ghost of Renly Baratheon order will rule be restored to the world. I so swear it. BT."
