THE DAILY LIFE MEME
GREETINGS LUCETIANS. Long ago, on a distant server, Kyio once unleashed a pleasant meme. But it’s been forever since we did it again.
Now it’s back again! With even MORE questions to tease your brains! This is your chance to show everyone how much thought you put into your roleplay and more importantly, offer a glimpse into your character’s Luceti life. Why does this matter? Well, it’s a handy way of helping other people play off you and consequently, make more interesting CR. So be a cool guy and try and fill it out!
Feel free to respond to each other's tags with IC or OOC responses, questions, or what have you. Have fun!
Emil Castagnier
2) Weight: 132 lbs / 60 kg
3) Eye color/Hair Color: Blond hair, green eyes.
4) Age: Physically 16. Actual age... it's complicated.
5) Physical features: BEHOLD, THE ANTENNA. Also has a star-shaped birthmark on the left side of his collarbone, but this isn't visible most of the time.
6) Voice: Right here! It doesn't help with the illusion that he's younger than he really is.
7) Who do they live with and how are chores divided in their house/apartment?: Emil lives with Caius, and the two of them divide the chores fairly evenly, cooking being the exception-- that's Emil's territory for the most part.
8) Their favorite (and least favorite, if you want) foods and who does the cooking in their house/apartment?: Emil love love LOVES seafood of any sort, as well as orange soda (a very unfortunate fact while the elves were here), mint chocolate chip and cookie dough ice cream, and pretty much everything else. He's not a picky eater, except where herbs are concerned, though he's growing to be more tolerant of those. As stated above, he's the one who does most of the cooking.
9) What they do during an average day in Luceti: Do some chores, maybe go to a couple of classes at school, and then work in the tea shop. Not necessarily in that order, and he spends a lot of his time with friends, too. His life is pretty mundane, but compared to what it was back in his own world, he likes it.
10) Their general sense of fashion: Stuff like this-- in other words, average teenage boy fashion, nothing too ridiculous or too "hip."
11) Do they have any hobbies? Did they come up with these hobbies in Luceti, or was it something they always did?: Cooking! It's something he was fond of (and good at) back in his own world; now that he's pretty much fending for himself in Luceti, he's gotten much better at it and gotten the chance to try all sorts of new things. He's pretty proud of his cooking skils by now.
12) Has the situation in Luceti changed their view on certain topics/the way they react to different things?: Luceti has matured Emil. A LOT. He's braver now, less apologetic, and more likely to look on the bright side rather than be pessimistic. Of course, he's still a derp who has a tendency to forget to introduce himself to people, and he has a bad habit of sticking his foot in his mouth sometimes, but overall he's much more grown-up than he was when he first arrived. Perhaps most importantly, he's come to terms with who - and what - he is. He accepts his dual nature as both human and non-human and is comfortable admitting it to others. Sure, he still has a ways to go before he and Ratatosk fully accept each other, but they're on the right path. He finally he believes that he can be useful just by being himself.
13) Do they have a weapon? If so, do they carry it at all times or just under certain circumstances?: Yes, Emil has a one-handed sword that he uses in combat, though in Luceti it tends to stay home most of the time.
14) Do they have any pets? Would these pets be at their homes, or do they hang out with the character in question?: Ahahaha Emil has a small zoo at his house, I am not even kidding. He has his chimera Sial, who was a gift from the Malnosso, a cat named Sherbet (one of Foot's kittens), a squirrel named Peanut, and various and sundry birds that he's rescued after they fell out of their nests. Sial is the only one who actually accompanies him anywhere, though.
15) Who are their neighbors?: Ami and Rei and Czes, Maiza, Luke, Layton, and Flora!
16) Who are their best friends in Luceti? How often do they spend time with them and doing what? Well, Caius is his housemate, so they're pretty good buddies. Aside from that... oh my god why are you asking me this, Emil knows everyone. EVERYONE. And he's always spending time with them, either in person or by chatting over the journals. CANNOT BE TAMED. Emil is a people person and thrives on contact with others.
17) On the flip side, is there anyone they actively don’t get along with? How do they interact, and would people know about this? Emil gets along with... pretty much everyone, or at least THINKS he gets along with everyone. Hal might have a different opinion on this matter. But Emil likes him! He just thinks Hal is a grumpy gus.
18) Their favorite areas/stores/hang-out locations?: The Welcome Center, Celsius Tear, and sometimes Good Spirits!
19) Do they belong to any clubs or organizations? Which ones? Do they go regularly, or just occasionally? He is the head of Brave Vesperia! Naturally this means he is always at meetings, and he also goes to stuff like the New Feather parties and the Cultural Fair to promote it there. He knows he sort of failed at being a leader for a while there, so he's putting in extra effort now to do a good job.
20) Wing color and how do they deal with their wings?: Green, and for the most part he just sort of ignores them. He's gotten so used to them by now that he forgets they're even there.
21) Did they change or grow in any way physically since coming to Luceti?: Nope. Emil won't grow at all due to what he is, at least not without conscious decision on his part (and Ratatosk's powers).
22) What do they miss the most from home?: HIS FRANS. Richter, Marta and Tenebrae especially. He would give just about anything to be able to see them again.
23) What does their handwriting look like? Do they write the way they talk, or is there a clear difference between the two?: ... ahaha. It's fairly messy, and that's putting it nicely. His writing is similar to the way he talks, only without the occasional stammering and the "um"s and "well"s.
24) Is the way they act in person different from the way they act over the journal system?: ... nope. Emil is just as derpy over the journals as he is in person, sometimes even more so.
25) Did they gain/lose any personal goals during their stay in Luceti?: Emil is determined to not only find a way to get back to his own world, but to be able to visit all of his other friends in different worlds too. Now that he's learned about space travel, he's even more convinced that this will be possible. He just needs to find the way.
26) Is Luceti a technological upgrade, or downgrade for them? Have they adapted to these changes well?: Upgrade! Electricity and technology really aren't that common where he comes from outside of some areas, so this is all new and exciting. Aside from detonating a potato in a microwave once, he's been doing a pretty good job learning how to use all of these strange new devices. He's especially fond of the TV in the rec center.
27) FOR STUDENTS: What is their favorite class? What is their least favorite class? What about their general behavior in school?: Emil doesn't really attend classes with any regularity anymore because he considers himself an adult and therefore too old to be a full-time student. He's not much of a fan of homework, either, and will go to considerable lengths to avoid doing it.
28) FOR DRINKERS: What is their favorite drink? What is their least favorite drink? Do they prefer Good Spirits or Cloud Nine? What's their attitude about and while drinking?: He likes Buffy's McCoys and anything that doesn't taste too boozy. If it's too strong, he won't like it... which means he mostly likes girly drinks. Good Spirits all the way because Buffy and Asch are bartenders, meaning he gets the chance to chat with them whenever he visits (which isn't all that often). To him, drinking is just something he gets the urge for every now and then; he's never been drunk-drunk and isn't really interested in that at all. Sometimes he just wants to be a little bit buzzed.
29) Do they have any special talents? If so, what are they?: RATATOSK MODE. And by that I mean he has another side of him that comes out in battle (or when he's really angry/scared), and this side isn't nearly as nice as Emil is. Ratatosk is arrogant, brutal, and generally unpleasant to humans. He's also a giant brat who has a tendency to act quite childish when things don't go his way. Needless to say, Emil tries to avoid letting him out, and for good reason.
30) Have they learned any new skills or abilities in Luceti? If so, what are they? Why and how? ... you know, I'm sure he has, but I am drawing a total and utter blank on this right now.
31) What kind of habits do they have on drafts? Are they willing to kill or do they prefer to avoid fighting? Emil hates drafts. HATES. He lets Ratatosk take over to do the fighting for a good reason and he doesn't really want to know what Ratatosk does while he's in charge. When he can, he prefers to avoid the fighting altogether.
32) What kind of habits do they have on missions? What is their reason for going on them? What do they intend to use their points for? Emil has never been on a mission, so this one is a big N/A.
33) How long have they been in Luceti? Has that length of time impacted them in any way?: It'll be five years for him in August. Which is longer than he's actually "lived" in his own world, and he finds that to be an odd thought. As a result, Luceti feels more like home to him than his world does and he's not in any real hurry to leave, all things considered. This is especially true given the fact that the people in his hometown of Luin were sort of horrible to him, whereas the people in Luceti have been kind. So... yeah, no real hurry to go back home. He likes all of the people he's met and the things he's done and learned here.
34) How do they unwind and get back to normal after a brutal experiment, event, or draft? Emil tends to go spend time with his friends and pets to cheer himself up after something really bad happens. Anything to get his mind off whatever it was. In his mind, if he can think about happy things instead, it makes the bad things that much more bearable.
35) What is their worst experience from an experiment or kidnapping? Were there any that they actually liked? LUCETILAND WAS AWESOME OKAY OKAY. In less awesome things, his worst experience was probably that experiment where he stumbled across Faize's dead body after the Malnosso killed him. That was a pretty traumatic experience for him.
36) Anything else you want to note?: DEAR GOD HAS IT REALLY BEEN ALMOST FIVE YEARS Emil is just like a fluffy blond barnacle who won't leave
