THE DAILY LIFE MEME

GREETINGS LUCETIANS. Long ago, on a distant server, Kyio once unleashed a pleasant meme. But then it's been over a year and yeah, we need to do it again. It's sort of like an info survey.

Well it's back, with new questions! And thanks to Dreamwidth's generous comment character count, these might even fit into a single comment! It's a 33 question survey/meme about your characters and their experiences and developments in Luceti. It'll give you a better idea of where your characters are at and let other people get a good sense of what your character is like and up to. It can make for interesting stuff, really.

1) Height: (either canon/current height or just a guess)

2) Weight: (either canon/current weight or just a guess)

3) Eye color/Hair Color: (also add whether the color is supposed to look/represent another color (IE: hair looks blue, is supposed to represent black) or was dyed or ... whatever)

4) Age: (Also note if they're supposed to look younger/older than they are)

5) Physical features: (Anything that stands out about them, especially if the icons don't seem to show it)

6) Voice: (either link to a clip, choose a character/actor's voice you think your character sounds like (for those who don't have VAs or actual actors) or just type out what you think they'd sound like -- whatever way you wanna go about it.)

7) Who do they live with and how are chores divided in their house/apartment?: (laundry, dusting, sweeping, fixing sinks, and so on)

11) Do they have any hobbies? Did they come up with these hobbies in Luceti, or was it something they always did?:

12) Has the situation in Luceti changed their view on certain topics/the way they react to different things?: (IE. A character who couldn't stand poor people in canon now is more tolerant of them due to circumstances in Luceti, so on)

14) Who are their neighbors?:

15) Who are their best friends in Luceti? How often do they spend time with them and doing what?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

1) Height: 5'10" (178 cm).

2) Weight: Around 150 lbs (68 kg).

3) Eye color/Hair Color: Blue eyes, blonde hair.

4) Age: Twenty.

5) Physical features: Nothing special!

6) Voice: ~~/relinks Shinji's clip~~ My character trend is "characters voiced by Spike Spencer", in case you weren't sure. See: Manly men eat parfaits together.

7) Who do they live with and how are chores divided in their house/apartment?: He lives with Leon D.S. Geeste (

fellpool), Precis F. Neumann (

rocketpunch), and Ilia Silvestri (

feelinghot). Everyone is kind of responsible for their own chores, but with Precis around, it's hard to tell how effective that is!

8) Their favorite (and least favorite, if you want) foods and who does the cooking in their house/apartment?: His favorite food is steak. :'| I like to think that everyone takes turns cooking in the house... besides Ilia. Ilia should never be allowed to cook.

9) What they do during an average day in Luceti: Train and relax!! He likes to help out his friends when he can and household chores are a given, but mostly, he just does whatever he can to pass the time.

10) Their general sense of fashion: He likes clothes that are loose and casual. He usually wears t-shirts and pants, loose-fitting and comfortable. He wears his jacket pretty often, though. It represents the fact that he's part of the Pangalactic Federation, so it's pretty important...!

11) Do they have any hobbies? Did they come up with these hobbies in Luceti, or was it something they always did?: Aside from training, he doesn't really have any hobbies in Luceti. That doesn't mean he doesn't do anything, though! He tries his hand at a lot of other things he did during his journey on Expel (like reading, writing, drawing), but none of them have really stuck in Luceti.

12) Has the situation in Luceti changed their view on certain topics/the way they react to different things?: Nope, not really. Claude is pretty chill about everything, so nothing's changed!

13) Do they have a weapon? If so, do they carry it at all times or just under certain circumstances?: He has a sword, but he only carries it with him if he's going to the battle dome or if he's going to be far from the village. The sword he carries is called the Godslayer, forged of pure antimatter by Dr. Mirage on Energy Nede. According to her, it's powerful enough to blow a small moon away!

14) Who are their neighbors?: Yukito and Touya in house 60; Donatello, Leonardo, and Robert in house 55. House 58 is empty.

15) Who are their best friends in Luceti? How often do they spend time with them and doing what? His best friends are Leon and Precis. He spends quite a bit of time with them since he lives with them!

16) Their favorite areas/stores/hang-out locations?: The battle dome, of course! While some people don't enjoy fighting simulations, Claude doesn't particularly care, because that's the kind of technology he's used to.

17) Wing color and how do they deal with their wings?: His wings are silver! He pretty much ignores them—while he doesn't make an effort to hide them, he probably doesn't have many complaints, either.

18) Did they change or grow in any way physically since coming to Luceti?: He's grown a little taller, and his hair's probably gotten longer, too. He probably makes sure to trim his hair every now and then, even if you can't tell the difference. :'|

19) What do they miss the most from home?: His other friends! And the mother that remembers him?!

20) What does their handwriting look like? Do they write the way they talk, or is there a clear difference between the two?: His writing is probably a little messy. He doesn't write often, but in the journals, he'd write about the same way he speaks.

21) Is the way they act in person different from the way they act over the journal system?: Nope, he's very much the same!

22) Did they gain/lose any personal goals during their stay in Luceti?: Not really. He can't accomplish the things he wanted to in his world here in Luceti, but he can still look out for and protect his friends, and that's what he lives to do.

23) Is Luceti a technological upgrade, or downgrade for them? Have they adapted to these changes well?: It's a downgrade, but it's not so bad. He misses computers and video games, but there are nice things about Luceti, too, like having clean air to breathe and fresh food for ingredients. He comes from a world where so many things are artificial, so he thinks about things like that!

~~24) FOR STUDENTS: What is their favorite class? What is their least favorite class? What about their general behavior in school?:~~ N/A

~~25) 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?:~~ N/A

26) Do they have any special talents? If so, what are they?: A little bit of everything?! This is Star Ocean, after all. He can cook, he can play the trumpet (though I play with the idea that his music-related skills could still use improving), and he's a hell of a thief!! He can also craft items and customize weapons. They're not things he needs to do often in Luceti, but hey, you never know, right?

27) Have they learned any new skills or abilities in Luceti? If so, what are they? Why and how? Nope. He's trying to brush up on some of the skills he picked up in his world, but he hasn't really tried anything new.

28) What kind of habits do they have on drafts? Are they willing to kill or do they prefer to avoid fighting? Claude is the kind of person that wants to be where all the action is, but he doesn't mind fighting offensively or defensively—basically, he goes wherever he needs to go and does what he needs to do. He doesn't like to sit still, though, so going out and fighting is the thing he likes to do most!

~~29) 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?~~ N/A

30) How long have they been in Luceti? Has that length of time impacted them in any way?: He arrived in Luceti on March 16th, 2011, so he's been here for a year and one month now. It hasn't really had much of an effect on him—he's been lucky enough to have friends in Luceti from the start, so all that really matters to him is keeping them safe.

31) How do they unwind and get back to normal after a brutal experiment, event, or draft? He spends the day taking it easy, but not without checking in on his friends first. Even if there's nothing to talk about (or no one wants to talk), it's good to know where his friends are and how they're doing after something big like that.

32) What is their worst experience from an experiment or kidnapping? Were there any that they actually liked? Hmm, I don't think he's had any particularly good or bad experiences. The Halloween when the moon fell was a bit distressing, but he put on a brave face for that...! Mostly because he didn't want to stress out Leon anymore than he already was, haha. :'|

33) Anything else you want to note?: Nope! But feel free to ask.
