Aku made shitsuji desu kara.
Basics:
1. Name: Laura
2. Age: Nineteen
3. Gender: For all intents and purposes, female.
4. Do you have a preference for being stamped as a male or a female character? Doesn't matter~
In-Depth:
5. Your personality in general: I'm a pretty easy-going person; I'd rather slack off and mess around than really do work. I like to have fun, but I'm not hyper; in fact, I'm pretty calm. Not much gets to me. I actually think I'm fairly childish; not only do I like to goof off and tease and bully and I hate being serious, but I can be kinda selfish, sometimes. Yet people also tell me I'm one of the most mature people they know, so I'm not sure what to think. Maybe it's because I'm mature and serious when it counts. I don't like to be like that all the time, though; it'd be really boring to be a stick in the mud like that constantly.
6. Strengths: People say I'm intelligent, independent, and mature, and even "fatherly"--but I'm more like a father who will tease you and give you a hard time instead of...I dunno, whatever fathers are supposed to do. I'm a very calm person, and rarely get emotional, and I'm fairly hard to piss off or provoke. I also never lash out unless provoked--I prefer to resolve things diplomatically rather than just fighting it out. I'm cautious, for the most part, with just the right amount of spontaneity, I think. For the most part, my mood is usually a contented one--I try not to let stuff get to me, and I'm not a hopeless optimist. I'm just content and easy-going. And even though I don't always act like it, I'm pretty supportive of those close to me--even if I tease them and stuff, and sometimes go "too far". But I do value those close to me; I just have a different way of expressing it. People also tend to think I'm pretty funny.
7. Weaknesses: I'm told I'm intimidating, especially when you don't know me well. And sometimes even when you do. Which seems like a bit of a contradiction, since I am generally a calm, confident, and contented individual. But I don't let most people get close to me, so there is a bit of coldness surrounding me, and apparently my intelligence and interests are a bit intimidating. And it doesn't help that my most memorable moments are probably those when I am provoked, rather than those where I'm just being my normal self. My friends tell me that they never want to be on my bad side. I'm also very blunt, when need be--and sometimes when I don't need to be, and I admit to being a bit calculating, secretive, manipulative, and I'm not too proud to resort to backhanded tactics. And not everyone enjoys my teasing and sarcasm, especially when I go too far and do something that borders on "traumatic"--spamming an arachnophobe's journal with images of spiders, logging in to someone else's account and saying something to one of their friends as them, etc. I'm pretty contradictory, I guess.
8. Dreams: I want to work in medicine, because it's really interesting~ Either a coroner or pathologist. I'm also considering psychologist or psychiatrist, or maybe even a forensic psychologist. I don't care about making money; I just want to do something interesting. If I could, I'd like to live in Santorini, Greece, in a little house by the ocean with a bunch of stray cats wandering around. I love cats and the ocean, and I'd love to live a simple life like that..
9. Fears: I wouldn't necessarily call it a "fear", but I do have some abandonment issues, I think.
10. Talents: Sleeping during class and maintaining a 4.0 GPA, reading, writing papers last minute, stuff like that.
11. Hobbies: Sleeping, graphics, sleeping, video games, reading, drawing, and sleeping.
12. Likes: I love subjects such as pathology, psychology, physiology, and philosophy, or just the human mind, mortality, and condition in general, especially abnormalities. It's a bit of a morbid interest, I'm told, but disease and death is just interesting. And then the philosophy behind life and death, as well as right and wrong, is also something I find pretty interesting.
But as far as lighter topics go, I like music, sleeping, video games, reading (especially books about dystopias, or psychological thrillers), teasing/messing with others, the scent of incense, summer, and sunny weather. My mood just always gets lifted when it's a nice, sunny day. Cold is nice, too, but I get miserable quickly out in the cold. I've always wanted to see snow, but I know I'm the type of person who'd go outside, all excited, play around for an hour, and then complain about being cold.
13. Dislikes: Rudeness. I'm pretty tolerant of a lot of personality types, and I try to give people a second chance when they act in a way I don't like, but I find it hard to forgive rudeness. It's not that hard, right? You give people the respect they deserve, and try to be sufficiently polite. I know I'm not the nicest, sweetest person, but I try not to be rude. Another personality trait I dislike is when people whine or complain about something, and then do nothing. I'm not big on pity parties.
I also dislike loud noises and bright lights. Whenever I go to a haunted house or something, I'm more concerned about flashing lights and banging noises than the actual monsters and stuff. Someone in complete monster get-up can be jumping out at me or standing in front of me, trying to scare me, and I'll be fine, but if they're banging around a metal trashcan or something? I'm gonna try to get away.
Favorites:
14. Color? Why?: I like blues, purples, and grays, especially more muted ones. They look nice and are easy on the eyes~
15. Animal? Why?: Cats. They're really cute and nice to pet and loving, but they're also independent. They're also quiet, unlike dogs.
16. Quote? Why?: "Whenever I feel the need to exercise, I lie down until it goes away." - Mark Twain
I actually have a lot more (many far more philosophical ones), but this pretty much describes me pretty well. I'm a big fan of Oscar Wilde and Steve Martin quotes, especially.
17. Music? Why?: I like most anything~ Except I'm not too fond of most rap. But my favorites are older stuff. My friends say I'm stuck in the 80's, because I don't listen to much after that. I didn't even when I was younger; while everyone was listening to the Spice Girls and Backstreet Boys, I was listening to Frank Sinatra and Queen.
18. Season (Fall, Spring, Winter, Summer)? Why?: Summer~ It's warm, there's no school, and it's just a really easy-going time. Unless I'm working a summer job...
19. Kuroshitsuji character? Why?: I like Lau, Agni, and Soma. They're just the sort of characters that appeal to me~ I also like Sebastian, but not as much as the aforementioned characters.
20. Least favorite Kuroshitsuji character? Why?: Not fond of Ciel. Maybe it's because I'm not fond of kids. Or maybe it's because of the fandom. Who knows~?
Which one? Explain each choice.
21. Mature or Immature: I'm only mature when it counts. Being super mature all the time is boring.
22. Leader or Follower: I'm a leader, but I usually stand aside and let others do their stuff. I'll only take over if I think I could do it better, or if they really mess up.
23. Optimistic or Pessimistic: I think I'm more optimistic. I'm not super optimistic (more realistic, I think), but negative thinking doesn't really get you any where. And pity parties are annoying.
24. Introverted or Extroverted: Introverted, mostly.
25. Free will, Fate or Neither: Not sure! I just take things as they go.
26. Impulsive or Cautious: A bit of both. Nothing would get done if I were too much of either.
27. Social or Anti-Social: When I get a group of friends I'm fairly comfortable with, I'm more social. But for the most part, I tend to stay out of the spotlight.
28. Calm or Hyper: Calm~
29. Family or Friends: Friends. Spending time with the family seems more like obligation; I'd rather spend time with people who hang around me because they honestly like me, not because we share the same genes.
30. Activity or Quiet: Quiet, but I do like to take risks. I get bored easily, so I need to do stuff. How about quiet activities?
31. Justice or Compassion: Justice, definitely.
Extras:
32. Would you want to have a contract with Sebastian? I guess it could be pretty useful...
33. How would you react to the incompetent workers at Ciel's estate? Be honest. I'd probably mess around with them, or sit back and watch the chaos ensue. Maybe I'd prompt some chaos to occur~
34. Just how mischievous are you? I am fairly mischievous. I love freaking people out and teasing them.
35. Description or Picture: here ):
36. Anything else: Nope~ Time for my nap.
