A New Team?
...................
THE BASICS
Name: Silver
Age: 16
Likes: adventures, winning, success, being the best, friendship, triumphing over obstacles, idealism, passionately pursuing dreams, fantasy, fencing, procrastinating, fandoms
Dislikes: losing, failure, not being the best, being ignored/betrayed, homework, stress, boredom, cheaters, laziness, complacency, REALITY
What do you feel is your best quality?: ... I guess it would be my determination. Whether that's working till I drop to do my best on something really small, trying to beat someone at a competition, or piecing myself together to go face that national debater, I always keep going, I don't back down, and I put my heart and soul into what I do. Strangely enough, no matter who you put me next to, I always come out as the most stressed-out the most passionate and driven person ... it just happens xD
Your worst?: It just dawned on me that my biggest fault is, if it makes any sense, being TOO COMPETITIVE. It's almost as if I see in terms of black and white - better and worse, and it's like I'm always in a race for the top. I take everything - EVERYTHING - wayyy too seriously, with a "I MUST BE BETTER" attitude - and I really mean everything. It leads to a bunch of OTHER problems, like serious pride issues, superiority-inferiority complexes, hypersensitivity & defensiveness when I'm criticized, and when I'm at my worst, attention-hogging (always wanting #1) and envy of those "better". It also leads to some batshit crazy rejection of reality because a) I want to be the best, b) I can't accept that I won't be the best, therefore c) I relentlessly pursue being the best.
Rank yourself on how evil you are. #10 being most evil. 3? I'm honestly NOT that evil - actually, I'm not evil at ALL. I'm like the biggest idealist you can ever find, and all my values are idealistic (too much fantasy hahaha). However, I can sometimes be blunt/hurtful without realizing it when I'm joking around, and I tend to act feisty (read: VIOLENT) just for fun a lot. I think, and it kind of scares me, that sometimes I'm really TOO idealistic, and I'd end up causing lots of problems when all I really want is the best... or what seems to me is the best (... sort of like Hitler? *shudders*. Literally, re: last year - "omg I'm going to make a utopia where people that DESERVE to be best get to be best and I'm going to make talented people suffer rawrrr". SOOOO glad I'm over that now) ... Maybe I'd better make that 4/10. Or 5/10. >_<
You'd prefer team mates who are more...
Mature or Immature?: Probably immature at the beginning, since we're all genin fresh out of the academy. Out of my teammates, maybe 1 more mature one and 1 less mature one or something. Having both the same would be ... boring :P
Optimistic or Pessimistic?: Optimism! No pessimism, that's never fun! Although I guess the team would need at least one member who was REALISTICALLY optimistic at least - to balance out myself and any other batshit insane idealists that end up with me xD
Thinking or Feeling?: Feeling all the way! (Although, we probably need at least one halfway thinker) I want heart-driven people who put comrades and friendship over that crap about "a shinobi must suppress all emotion" or heartlessly believe that being "strong" by killing others is everything
Impulsive or Cautious?: Okay, I'd be seriously pissed if I had an overcautious team. Obviously we can't ALL be hotheads (gee I wonder how long we'd last haha), but I want a team that's somewhat quick to take action or jump in. We'd probably need at least ONE person who was somewhat cautious, to keep us all from killing ourselves XD
Outgoing or Shy?: Either or, just as long as they're outgoing with ME. Shy people do have people they open up around, after all, and honestly I have a soft spot for shy people <3 But maybe at least one outgoing person to tolerate my spazzing/mouthing around haha.
Hardworking or Laid-back: OMG if they aren't hard-working I'll wring their necks off >.> They'll have me to answer to -.-
Modest or Bold: Bold, although a modest member is fine, too
What are traits you would like to see in them? Brave, determined, hard-working, eager for action, adventurous, optimistic/idealistic, positive and supportive, capable of valuing human emotion, friendly ... honestly, just the standard stuff! Capable of taking things seriously and not being too stupid are also bonuses. Really, any more than that, and all I would be able to say is that I want a balance among my team members - maybe even a contrast, or at least a contrast between the three of us! What's most important is that they're strong emotionally, generally positive, and most of all, courageous. As for my sensei ... they need to acknowledge that this training is SRS BSNS and really be committed to making us kick ass, and focus on us all equally. I mean, like, REALLY dedicated, working with us one-on-one as well as in a team, the type that's going to, yes, enter us in stuff like the Chuunin exams, give us challenges, and just in general not let us fall behind. I mean, damn, I don't know about you, but I'd sure want to be the best genin squad in my village. That, in addition to all of the usual ~sensei stuff~
What are traits you would not like to see in them? ........ LAZINESS. I can tolerate like anything in the world, really. I can't tolerate laziness (especially if they, you know, seem to have everything fall on a platter before them ANYWAY) -.-; I also have an issue tolerating prankster-ness in access, or people who can't take ANYTHING seriously EVER. People who are more concerned with looks than training would also be a huge issue on a ninja squad... Oh, and no arrogance/condescending-ness (ESPECIALLY not combined with laziness, god I hate those people -.-). I will punch you in the face. In my Jonin sensei, pleasepleaseplease just not one that's going to throw their hands up in the air and not teach us. I, um, obviously want to reach my potential...
Imagine yourself as a ninja...:
How would the relationship with your teammate(s) be? Friendly! We'd all know each other and be reallyyyyy close! There'd DEFINITELY DEFINITELY be serious business rivalry though - it's inevitable in every single close friendship I'm in, not to mention, um - actually, I don't think I've ever NOT been subconsciously competing with, like, anyone.
What would you do if a team member decided to go to the "dark side"? Punch them and drag them back with me??? Try my damned hardest to bring them back. As much as Naruto annoys me with his constant "SASUKESASUKE I'M BRINGING SASUKE BACK" thing, I'd probably end up doing it myself >__>;;
How would you feel if your team was given a tough mission? Exciteddd! Now's the time to test our skills! We're gonna kick ASS :P
Your preferred fighting style? (Weapons, long-range, genjutsu, element and so on)
Close range for sure, I have terrible aim/patience for long range.
If there's such thing as a speed specialist, I'd be one (: I'd be really FAST but not terribly strong in either physical or special (erm, elemental xD too much Pokemon) attack - at least not at first glance. Little raw strength except for my kicks, but LOTS of speed and quick martial arts / acrobatic skills - good taijutsu overall, I'd use that primarily.
I wouldn't use much ninjutsu except the basic techniques and high-powered elemental attacks that suck up a lot of chakra at once - so I'd only be using special attacks a couple times per match. I'd either have katon (use more for special attacks) or raiton (use more for infusion w/ physical attacks) affinity, and I'd train the other one too.
I don't really like the idea of genjutsu, it's just not my style, and I hate mindscrew, so ^^;;
And I'd carry a small short sword, although I wouldn't use it much unless the other person pulled out their sword on me or something.
Wow, holy crap, something tells me I know my battle style wayyyy too well >___< I blame it on a chronic Pokemon obsession
Do you want a sensei and 2 members, just 2 other members, or just 1 other person? Sensei & 2 members!
Is there a character you do not want? If so, why? Just like what I've said here for EVERY OTHER APP (lmao), Shikamaru would be quite troublesome on my team ^_^;; (But that's like a given.) And, um, can I ask not to have Naruto himself? There's something about him that I ... really can't tolerate please ignore all similarities >_< But if you really feel him....
And, err, sorry if that was a really long app that left it really vague as to who to vote for ._. I know I kind of said "BOTHBOTHBOTH" for everything, so....
