....why not.

I want everyone who sees this to ask me four questions. Any four no matter how personal, dirty, private, or random. I have to answer them honestly. In turn, I'll ask you four questions of my own. Repost this if you want and have other people ask you questions, too!

i r sheep ;;

Ari
Easiest way to get on his good side: Complimenting him the correct amount. Basically: Not gushing over him or tell him he sucks o/ Offering to be his friend or other common friendly gestures are good too.
Easiest way to get on his bad side: Talking down to either of the Okage Marlenes or anything insulting. Or smacking around one of his friends. When it comes to people other than himself, he can be pretty strong.
Favorite person: ...I'll get back to you on that.
Favorite person met on the comm: Probably, right now, it's a tie between Orlando and maybe Alize.
Prefers: Blondes. Especially if they have a strong personality, bonus points if they're cute.

Seth
Easiest way to get on his good side: Being useful, not being a waste of time to talk to
Easiest way to get on his bad side: Existing, being an idiot
Favorite person: His Espeon and Umbreon. No one else qualifies :|
Favorite person met on the comm: No one so far. orz need to get him out more
Prefers: Intelligent girls, must be able to be independent and survive.

Ini Miney
Easiest way to get on her good side: Existing :D? Or being a car-lover.
Easiest way to get on her bad side: Well, for Ini, there's not a bad side, per se, she'll just get very uncomfortable around you. As for [SPOILERS], uh. Associating with Phoenix/taking his side, being unappreciative of cars, annoying her, ect. Basically, Existing o/
Favorite person: None
Favorite person met on the comm: ...Uh, Death? I dunno.
Prefers: Hot guys. Must be nice but not in an annoying way, can listen to her and is tolerable.

[the door is locked]

[the lights are off]

[is curled up in the covers and blankets]

[not moving. doesn't even look like he's breathing]

[but he's alive]

....n-nnn....

NOT!ESSAY to quickly explain a few things.

--As far as I know, Ari will not be able to face his fear and thus get over the virus. However, the virus won't last as long as it should because I don't want him to completely break :D;

--If you read this essay you should know that mentally Ari is not uh. Very stable! If you look at how his mind works and what elements need to be present for him to function as he usually does (and even then it's not the best condition, clearly), you can see that it's [his state of mind is] very... fragile.

--Proof of existence for anything/everything/himself = VERY IMPORTANT TO ARI. It's the most vital thing for his mind frame. Sadly, Okage has Beiloune is filled with bastards who want to keep challenging that. General things off the top of my head that I can remember challenging this:

* people ignoring him
* lol disappearing
* classification in general
* Marlene breaking (turning into a doll) the first time (explanation covered in the essay linked)
* Beiloune
* being classified as an evil king for awhile [DDD-verse]
* Marlene breaking the second time [DDD-verse]
* Um, possibly Roxas disappearing that one time? I don't remember it very well but I know it impacted him
* The Princess Tutu cast and their own story issues
* some DDD viruses
* Q
* possibly Lloyd's sword. I'll have to check on that
* disappearing again (worst fear virus)

...THERE'S PROBABLY MORE but yeah. He's been trying to balance on a very thin thread with his need for proof of existence in general and stuff. (bet that doesn't make sense)

--After the virus Ari will probably hole up in his room at either his house or a house in Triste. The room will be pitch black on the inside so gtfo Stan >[

--Someone will need to snap him out of it. It shouldn't be IMPOSSIBLE but he'll be kind of like a cornered animal minus the attacking :( I'll have to see. BUT IN ADVANCE, any takers? |D; I'll have like Annie make a post to the community or something like that. WE'LL SEE.

....Aaand that's all I think? If there's anything else I'll add it when I remember.

.............!?

--Ah.



[[Guess.]]

.......

I think I've caught a fever.

I JUST REALIZED I suddenly have six characters haha what. SO CONCRIT MEME flame me and all that good stuff /o/

OH and why not. RELATIONSHIP MEME too if you'd like. Ask away!

I PLAY;

Ari (overshadowed_x)
Pride (prideless_eyes)
Minato Arisato (shufflecard)
Hiro Sohma (trousersheep)
Umehito Nekozawa (nothing_as_dark)
Gold (gold_goggles)

...I guess they forgot again this year. That's 16 years straight now, right? Though I really shouldn't have expected anything, anyways...

...

Happy 17th birthday to me, I guess.

If you could ask any of my characters any questions? What would it be? He/She could take the time and actually answer them without having it being in the situation where it has to be in character. You can take this opportunity to ask my characters how the feel about yours, or why a certain character does something, or how can a certain character do something else. Anything goes!

I play;

Ari (overshadowed_x)
Pride (prideless_eyes)
Minato Arisato (shufflecard)

Ask away~

[Waiting patiently outside the inn as instructed; is noticeably cheerier]

Comment with what characters you play, and I'll let you know what my characters think of them. If you feel the need to reciprocate, go ahead and let me know what your characters think of mine.

My Characters

An essay on Ari (part 1/???)/character study, because things have come up lately that I’ve been meaning to write. Note: I might jump around/be redundant, don’t mind, I’m trying to sort things out. (LJ screwed up the spacing, will fix it later)

 

Comments/suggestions/questions/crits/ect. are loved and welcomed! Just comment here on this entry~

Concrit post for Ari and just Ari. Open to anyone from any RP; anons welcome.

Please be harsh and tell me what's wrong, even if you think that it may just be you who sees something wrong. I've been slipping lately, and some people have confirmed it-- so yes, I need more perspective.

However, I'd prefer constructive concrit please. Tell my why you think something is off and tell me how I might improve with it. Of course, you can point out what I'm doing right, since ripping apart characterization tends not to be constrictive.

EDIT: Comments screened for your convenience.

...........

......I feel really drained. I don't even care that I'm a girl now.

..........


[[For the record, there's nothing huge and plotty going on, Ari's just had a lot of buttons pushed and srs bizns going on lately, and with all this emotion coming out of him, he's honestly just tired himself out since he's not used to it.]]

If you have questions about the "Why's" behind a phobia Ari has, just ask~

Ari had managed to world hop to Crown Town with less mistakes than he had used to make before. Perhaps jumping about worlds was improving his skill, he didn't know, but it was much more convenient-- especially since he wouldn't have to keep the other person waiting.

Mythos... He wasn't entirely too sure what to think of him, besides the stray thought that he may possibly be psychic. He had said he was a character in a story too-- a prince, even; though he hardly acted like a prince would on his world. The writers probably had different ideals of princes, Ari mused. But he was curious, since he had never met outside his world in the same situation, and he never thought he would meet someone else. Did things work differently or the same? he couldn't help but wonder.

Nearing the Academy, Ari spotted someone sitting on the edge of the fountain that was there. As he got closer, he could tell the person did look like the icons Mythos had been using on the community, but he thought he should check, just in case. It was somewhat embarrassing to mistake someone in a new town.

"Ah... Are you Mytho?" He asked curiously, as soon as he got close enough.

Player info meme borrowed from a friend who also RPs~! Here we go!

Aaah.... How long was I asleep?

[[So, Toujours people, Ari's been missing for about a week and a half RP time. Feel free to ask him what he's talking about or, if you knew him before hand, ask where the heck he's been. Don't forget him, please-- that'll cause emo. He knows anyone he knew before ('less they were dropped)]]

This journal is going to be--

So! Please to be telling me what I'm doing wrong, since I know I'm doing a fail job with Ari.
I have other characters too, if you know them, comment here if you'd like (they have this meme in their journal), but I'm mostly worried about Ari :<

What I'm doing good/bad/not enough of, please! Anons welcome~
