>scatty has fought in every major war over the past 10,000 years; she was, most recently, a nurse at ypres and and fought at stalingrad. >she has trained great heroes of yore, from achilles to joan of arc >she is allergic to cats and birds; cats are a psychological allergy that she gave herself because of how much she hates bastet >she knwos over 600 languages, many of which are dead or were never used by humans >she killed her only human lover because he went crazy and tried to kill her >she has no fighting style, whatever that means. she is apparently the "origin" of many modern fighting styles. >she has a twin sister named aoife whom she absolutey despises >she may or may not have a daughter
~She's actually 4'10". That's a whole 1'5" shorter than her husband. Yeah.
~Her gift allows her to cheat on the stock market, which she does extensively and handily
~She stole a Porsche once. It was awesome.
~A huge chunk of her human years were spent locked in an insane asylum against her will. The experience was so traumatizing, she became practically a vegetable. It's why she has no memories of being human.
~Name a language, she probably speaks it fluently.
His middle name is Bruce. I like to think he's named after Batman. Probably not, though.
His surname is a nod to Reservoir Dogs. He's the "Mr. Pink" to Walt's "Mr. White".
He was supposed to die at the end of season 1, but the writers' strike saved him by giving the writers some time to deliberate and they ultimately decided they liked Aaron Paul too much. (What would the show even be without him?)
He smokes Parliaments. One of the cigarettes in his pack contains a ricin capsule. You know, for emergency use.
He makes a lot of pop culture references and is apparently a fan of comics, Sonic games, Rage, and the Lord of the Rings films. He also loves the Discovery Channel and reality TV, particularly Ice Road Truckers.
He attended DeVry University. But not for long. He studied data systems management, whatever that means. He doesn't even know.
He is indirectly responsible for the deaths of almost 200 people (including children!) and directly responsible for the murder of one very innocent person - a fact which haunts him endlessly.
He likes to draw, he took kung fu lessons as a kid (blue belt!), he's a decent carpenter and engineer, and he played drums (badly) and provided vocals (badly) for an alt-emo-thrash-metal band called TwaughtHammer. Overall, he's an artistic guy with lots of skills but no drive or direction.
He has been kidnapped or held at gunpoint over 15 times throughout the series and is one of the most (if not the most) battered characters on television. He has a visible injury of some kind for ~20 episodes out of 54.
His favorite color is red. If he can purchase an appliance or cell phone or car in red, you bet your ass that's his choice color.
He was raised Presbyterian and his family is a bunch of wealthy WASPs. Predictably, he's the black sheep and they pretend he doesn't exist.
Back home, he's off-and-on dating a lovely lady named Andrea Cantillo and helping to raise her son, Brock, who he's pretty much adopted as his own. So yeah, Jesse Pinkman is kind of someone's father. It works out as well as you'd expect.
➜ Although touted as the supergenius rookie, Sasuke actually came in second place overall in grades at the Ninja Academy, below Ino.

➜ His favorite food is onigiri filled with tomato and fermented skipjack tuna.
➜ He is trained in archery.
➜ His most disliked foods are natto and anything sweet.
➜ When he was young, he wanted to join the Konoha Police Force when he grew up.
➜ When he was very little, he owned a dinosaur plushie, played with cardboard shuriken and building blocks, and had a TV in his bedroom.
➜ He was capable of walking, forming complete and coherent sentences, playing hide and seek, and understanding the concept of cheating at hide and seek at the age of two, which speaks of his remarkable intelligence.
➜ He has never shown or expressed sexual interest. Whether he has it is unconfirmed.
➜ He is talented and knowledgeable in seals.
➜ OH, and there was a time when he could transform at will into a blue demon thing with hands for wings and fabulous glossy blue lipstick.
☀ Ichigo's birthday is July 15; he is currently 18 years old in game.
☀ His name is written 一護 and means "he who protects." He takes his name very literally.
☀ Yes that's his natural hair colour.
☀ He's half Human*, half Shinigami.
☀ He lost his mother in a Hollow attack* when he was nine years old. She gave her life to protect him and he is still not over it. *This may or may not be about to be changed/expanded on in canon because Kubo is a gigantic dick and there are hints that Masaki might be of Quincy blood.
(☀ His favourite's Hamlet, but he also likes Merchant of Venice. )
☀ Despite vehement protestations and reactions towards boobs in his mid teens, he's now cultivating a reserved appreciation of girls and their curvaceous parts, he just chooses not to broadcast it- shut up Keigo.
☀ He's 5'11" and still growing.
☀ He plays the guitar, though probably not as well as Chad. He also has a nice singing voice, but don't expect him to broadcast that anytime soon.
☀ He really sucks at remembering names and often gets the kanji reading wrong. (See: Ametatsu Ishida)
☀ He's actually a lot smarter than he looks; this is the result of a lifetime of people jumping to conclusions that he's a no good thug because of his hair colour, and the subsequent fights he gets into when people try to start on him for it. He actually works hard at school to try and prove the naysayers wrong on that front.
☀ He used to take karate lessons as a little kid and was eventually one of the best in the class. His friend Tatsuki- who at one point goes on to be reserve Vale Tudo champion at her level in Japan- notes that he was better than her, and she's a black belt at least.
☀ Because of this, his highest paying day job is teaching little kids karate at Portside Dojo.
☀ Speaking of little kids, Ichigo has a pretty big soft spot for the little suckers. He's an older brother to two younger twin sisters after all. We're first introduced to him in the manga when he's beating up some punks for knocking over an offering to a dead girl, who he promises to bring fresh flowers for the next day.
☀ He is really, really tough. His body can take a remarkable amount of punishment and he still keeps on getting up to take more; at one point the only thing that stopped him from getting up to keep on fighting was the fact that he had been practically bisected and his body physically could not function. (He got better).
☀ And for that matter, he has a handy habit of getting better after he dies too.
☀ He's also stupidly powerful, probably more so than he realises. He's chock full of spiritual power, exceeding Captain level, to the extent that his body can't actually keep it all contained and it's constantly leaking out of him. Basically means that Ichigo would suck at anything resembling stealth where other spiritually sensitive beings are concerned because he is essentially a walking beacon of immense spiritual power. We are talking monstrously powerful here, at his most base breaking powerful he can knock down a mountain with just the shockwaves of swinging his sword. At his current level, he can part clouds and take down most of a building with a single Getsuga Tenshou.
☀ God help you if you are an older sibling and being a dick to your little sibling because Ichigo has a special place reserved at the top of his ass-kicking list for those sort of people.
☀ Contrary to the more vocal side of the fandom's belief, Ichigo is not the hero of a romance manga and isn't really focused on dating anybody as it stands.
☀ Boxers.
☀ At the moment, he's thinking about maybe pursuing higher education with the aim of getting into med school to become a doctor. He's almost glad his father isn't here so he can be spared the inevitable embarrassing display of "Oh Masaski! Our useless son has finally chosen to walk the noble path set for him by his father and decided to become a respectable member of society just like meeee!" that would probably follow such an announcement.
☀ That being said, he misses Isshin and the girls terribly.
⚖ Mia had no idea about what a lawyer was until she watched To Kill A Mocking Bird with her father one afternoon as a little girl. She named her first pet goldfish Atticus as a result.
⚖ Like her mother, Mia's got a bit of an artistic eye and sometimes sketches to unwind. She prefers life drawing, and took a few night classes in her first year at law school until the workload increased to the point that she had to give it up.
⚖ She attributes her ability to think up crazy scenarios partly to her mother. Misty's bedtime stories were always unexpectedly gripping, and Mia would drive her mother mad by trying to guess the outcome before she got to it.
⚖ Her favorite food is walnuts. She also enjoys pomegranates.
⚖ Her favorite color is burgundy.
⚖ She's a Gemini; her birthday is May 21st, 1989. Her Chinese zodiac sign is Snake.
⚖ She's not a big jewellery wearer; her ears are pierced and she wears simple studs. She prefers not to wear flashy pieces, but if she does she prefers gold to silver, and garnets and pearls for adornment. Her magatama is a staple piece in her daily wardrobe.
⚖ She loves jazz music; it's a passion she inherited from her father. Gershwin, Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald and Bing Crosby are all favorites of hers, though she enjoys newer jazz. She'll dance and sing along when no-one's around to witness it.
⚖ Mia is an absolutely terrible cook. Besides from working a toaster, the only thing she can actually manage to cook is pasta, and even then her success rate is 85%. The stupid stuff insists on clumping together in a pan.
⚖ After Diego Armando's accident, the smell of hot coffee would always cause Mia to do a double take. The cup of coffee she had when she arrived in Siren's Port was the first she'd had in five years.
⚖ Every Sunday before she died, without fail, Mia would switch off her phone, tell no one where to reach her, and go to sit with Diego at the hospital until visiting hours were over to tell him about her week, her cases, play some music for him and read to him.
⚖ He wasn't her first, or even her second, but he was the first that mattered.
⚖ She's a size 6 - 8, often going larger on the top to accommodate for the D cups filled with justice.
⚖ She has a prescription for reading glasses, thanks to occasional eyestrain incurred from long nights poring over case files and intensively studying notes.
⚖ Her alcoholic drink of choice is Cointreau. She also enjoys good wine and margaritas.
⚖ Her dirty little secret? Until she started working for Grossberg, she had only ever drunk instant coffee.
⚖ Maya isn't the only one in the family who loves burgers. Mia's just a little more reserved in her appreciation.
⚖ For years, Mia was furious with her mother for abandoning her and Maya, even though she understands why she did it. It took her a long time to come to accept and forgive her.
⚖ Charley was a gift from Diego.
⚖ For obvious reasons, she's not very fond of Rodin.
⚖ She and Diego live together in a two bedroom apartment in District 4 with Vladimir the cat and Estragon the dog.
> He has tiny dainty pretty hands and feet, and a slender waist. He is super sensitive and self-conscious about this, which is why he sports floppy sleeves that hide his hands and big oversized boots, which make a "galumphing" sound when he walks.
> His benefactor, Lady Shelly Rainsworth used to make him cross-dress.
> He is a lightning-fast knitter, he can make you a whole scarf in minutes.
> He prefers women with vast... tracts of land.
> He can't deal with children when they cry.
> No matter how much he has to drink, he can't get drunk.

Smack-dab average for a nine-year-old kid. ~ He was the undefeated spinning tops champion of his district in Rukongai, and was once very proud of this. ~ Despite his own abrasive personality and Jidanbou's highly sensitive one, the two are good enough friends that Hitsugaya would visit him when he had off-time from work. ~ He naps regularly because Granny told him once that "children who sleep well, grow well." It doesn't appear to be working. ~ He's the youngest shinigami to have ever attained the rank of Captain. ~ He writes a column on ice sculpture for the Seireitei Communication. It's quite popular. ~ His favourite candy is amanattou. ~ Including a flashback, he has only smiled approximately three times in the manga. ~ Although he gets insistent about people using his title, he never uses others' titles when he speaks to them.

♦ Warsman's real name is Nikolai Volkoff, but he never uses it anymore and doesn't usually think of himself as anything but 'Warsman'...
♦ ... which is the name given to him by the Soviet government when they signed him on as a top secret super-soldier against the West. When he found out about this, he cried.
♦ His friends just call him "Wars".
♦ He has a huge soft spot for children and hates seeing a child in danger. Violence against women also sets him off.
♦ Incidentally, he's also kind of a sentimental romantic.
♦ Warsman has died twice. The first time he was revived by someone else's self-sacrifice. The second time, he escaped from hell.
- 21 at the time she encountered Hellsing and became a vampire (why most fans seem to put her at 18 I do not know) - Her father was a police officer, it was this and spoiler violent murder of him and her mother when she was a child that set Seras so determinedly to joining the police force - In addition to vampire powers she has very good basic hand to hand and firearms training - Still a virgin and not likely to change that anytime soon XD - Gets easily flustered over any sex talk - Yes they're real - Still experimenting with learning the full extent of her powers, especially without daddy!pire around to help anymore, halp how do mist/bats - Before being turned she was a pretty decent cook - Bit of a worrywort despite how cheery she acts outside - Would like her dead bf now pls :c
- Eldest of six children in her family - Constantly worries over what might be happening to them back home, especially if time doesn't freeze while she's here... - Has figured out that she dies back in the arena and if she ever leaves the Port that is what will happen, Rue keeps it quiet though as she doesn't want others to worry. - Going to be the best flower girl ever! - Still scavenges edible wild plants wherever she sees them despite having enough money now to buy all the food she wants. She also cannot waste anything. - Determined not to be helpless, has actually picked up a lot of fighting skills and acrobatic talent from training with the Teen Titans! - Her favourite food is Chinese, as it was the first meal she had on arriving at the Port, her favourite dessert is ice-cream - Her favourite colour is blue
- Going to burn the Port down, with the lemons - No but she is making being plans on an island sized testing facility - the lemons are in the prototype stages - As per game canon GLaDOS' personality once belonged to the secretary of the original CEO of Aperture Science, then the psychosis kicked in from being what she was - Yes okay she might actually be fond of that fat orphan - Is finding it surprisingly irritating that the people here talk back when she insults them
-If we're going off the novel, she has spent two months of her life in jail before telling the police that she was too young to stand trial.
-She's not entirely sure how old she is; in her teens, somewhere, but she hasn't celebrated a birthday since they lived in Montfermiel.
-She really wants a beautiful china doll - just like the one the man gave Cosette - because that one should have been hers, and she's still jealous all these years later.
-Eponine's name comes from the latin 'Empona'; when translated to French, it becomes 'Epponina' and when translated from Ancient Greek, it means 'heroine'.
- She doesn't really understand what true love is, or how to love anybody, or even how to accept love from others.
-Eponine returns to her criminal life, despite not having to, because it makes her feel safe. She is full of self-loathing and thinks that the underworld is her rightful place in the world.
-She's actually quite a positive person most of the time; she does try to see the positive side of a bad situation.
headcanon for Kainé /o/ i have some nsfw ones too but I'm planning to put this and a big canondump on a post in her journal sometime.
mostly carnivorous. her cooking consists mainly of killing shit and roasting shit. gardening/picking greens is for chumps, and Nier (shh).
that said, she does make sure Emil has a balanced diet when they camp but forages stealthily because FUCKING IMAGE TO MAINTAIN.
she cremated her grandmother and their destroyed home. the shack she lives in is temporary housing--she camps and moves around often.
can go to sleep practically on cue, anywhere, even in Emil's creepy-ass mansion. she's a bona fide hobo 8|b
frequently has nightmares, which Tyrann invades and makes worse since they share a mind. her favorite nights are dreamless ones.
has never read a page in Weiss, ever. and doesn't care, who's curious about something like that shithead book anyway!! (she is)
she makes flower wreaths/crowns for Emil a few times while camping, because she never wants him to think of himself as ugly. they're not lunar tears since those are super rare, but she's been collecting and saving them up for the future just in case.
isn't attracted to brother Nier until post 5-year timeskip, when he mans up. because lbr, younger Nier is kinda a pussy (we still love him).
but she's always been attracted to father Nier even if she didn't realize it. lbr he's hot even if he does wear a garterbelt on his face.
makes her own clothes. she's pretty handy! and shut up about her stripperiffic taste in fashion already, she doesn't give a shit.
HATES PET NAMES. over time she gets used to Tyrann's (sunshine) because she has no choice, and she tolerates Weiss' (hussy) because they're bros but she'll get more than a little trigger-happy if a stranger calls her anything condescending because FUCK YOU.
post ending-d, she stays with Yonah and takes care of her and they become very close. Yonah's more delicate than Emil but they have a nice domestic sistership until she dies to black scrawl and Kainé falls into a severe depressive state, leading to the drama cd/ending e events.
Emil is there when Kainé herself succumbs to the disease a few years later. she tells him to keep his chin up and not to cry and to kick some extra ass for her when she's not around to do it anymore.
Emil is there when Kainé herself succumbs to the disease a few years later. she tells him to keep his chin up and not to cry and to kick some extra ass for her when she's not around to do it anymore.
but why
man, i'm not okay with post ending drama cd emil. nothing is okay...
✿ Headcanon: he has a very poor sense of time! Having been alive for well over a thousand years, and remembering so little of it, it's difficult for him to gauge the length of months and years. (The concept of New Year's celebrations was very bizarre to him for this reason!) To demonstrate, he feels like he was looking a long time for a way to free Kainé from his curse on her, but if you asked him, he wouldn't be able to guess how long.
✿ Headcanon...: the songs on the official piano collection are songs he can play... It's so meta, but he's on the back and inside covers, FIGHT ME.
✿ Halfway headcanon: he loves Italian food... Sure, he comes from a post-apocalyptic world, but his butler was created back when Italy still existed, so Emil gets some delicious pasta dishes.
✿ This is some of the more extreme headcanon that will never be used anywhere ever, but I like to think about it... Emil and his sister Halua were, thirteen hundred years ago, largely of Russian and German descent. Originally from a wealthy family, the Hamelin Organization was their last hope for safety. (THAT WENT WELL)
✿ He's crushing hard on Nier. In the game, this is more evident with Brother Nier than it is with Father Nier (lol canon AUs)— even then, though, Emil is freakishly overzealous about protecting ALL of his nakama. Seriously, he gets surprisingly hysterical.
✿ He's partial to stories of romance...
✿ One of the first signs that Kainé might not be so bad is that Emil trusts her implicitly, no matter how violent and abrasive she is. :U His affection for her is born of her willingness to accept him and his freaky eye curse immediately, despite him having hidden himself away for years and years in order to keep from hurting or scaring other people. They might seem like near polar opposites, but they're a little more similar than one would think, as seen when they separately come up with the same bizarre, made-up expletive for a particularly nasty monster...
✿ Headcanon: he stopped aging just a couple months shy of thirteen, meaning he never reached his growth spurt... :( (Canon fact: he's only about 4'7"! ;_; )
✿ He can wield a staff(/rod)...! Though he's never shown to do this while still blindfolded (and some other spoilery stuff), his character sheet lists it as a weapon. All in all, he's more formidable than you might think.
✿ Slightly headcanon...? His eyes petrify 'anything' he looks at— but if something's caught in his peripheral vision, it won't turn to stone. (Though, let's not test that...!) He can look at things like the sky and the sea, too, since they're not something you can really petrify, but he prefers not to because that's how accidents happen. The petrification curse, though, is hax enough that he's needed to be knocked out before a boss battle for game plot's sake.
✿ He's named for Ludwig Emil Grimm, the younger of the Grimm brothers.
✿ Headcanon: he's prone to playing repetitive music to pass the time; he spent so many centuries whittling away the days doing next to nothing alone in his manor, after all. That's how his musical hobby developed in the first place.
✿ It's uncanny how good he is at walking around without running into things...
✿ He names his attacks after himself like a magical girl............................
✿ A neat party trick of his (and VERY USEFUL SKILL, all things considered) is that he can identify the general age and sex of a person by listening to their gait. He's usually pretty close in his guesses, too!
and, SPOILERS ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
✿ He was born over a thousand years before his friends, and he'll survive for at least hundreds of years after they die. :( :( :( Cavia is suffering...
♦ When he was very young, he used to dress up in flower crowns and pretend he was a girl. Show of hands if you're surprised. Anyone? Anyone? Despite this, he's got his share of latent (?) misogyny going on...
♦ Only halfway headcanon: he's one of those 'problem children' who seeks negative attention because he's hungry for any attention at all. This means that if he's absolutely insufferable to you, he probably really likes you. See also: pulling Ciel's hair, everything he says to Gilbert Nightray.
♦ Headcanon: his favorite fairy tale is Little Red Riding Hood, mostly because he's dramatic and identifies really strongly with it. Rapunzel and Sleeping Beauty are up there, too, and he also really loves Hansel and Gretel, because brother complex.
♦ He's got a ridiculous oral fixation, and spends an inappropriate amount of time touching his mouth and stuff. Headcanon: this fixation extends to other people's mouths, too, though; Claude's mouth was always something special to him, and he likes sticking his fingers in Ciel's mouth whenever possible. Gross.
♦ Headcanon: his weirdo creeper relationship with Ciel's teeth has a bit of a Freudian excuse for it, too. In Victorian England, it wasn't uncommon to have one's teeth pulled and sold off for various... purposes. This was often a practice reserved for lower class folk with some nice teeth still in their head. Alois is quite proud of how nice his teeth are now - after some tailoring from Claude early on in their contract because fuck dentists - but to the grubby street urchin still stuck inside him somewhere, Ciel's mouth is a veritable gold mine.
♦ He DOES wear trousers sometimes, specially in the winter. (Headcanon: but when the trousers come out, so does the trouble. One of my favorite running gags for Alois in game is that if something terrible happens to him, he's usually specified as wearing trousers that day. Maybe his thighs are good luck...)
♦ By the by, his sometimes questionable sense of fashion functions primarily as a visual statement: Fuck you, I'll do literally whatever I want. Perhaps you can appreciate exactly how bold his shorts were in the Victorian era. He appreciates audacity.
♦ Headcanon: he really does enjoy the occasional scrap with other boys. It's fun to assert his dominance, and he likes to lord himself over people. He has a good tolerance for physical altercations like this, so it doesn't really bother him.
♦ His favorite colors are traditional wedding colors of the Victorian era.
♦ Halfway headcanon: back in the 'honeymoon phase' of their contract, Alois and Claude were quite friendly with each other, each indulging in their own silliness with one another. They'd while away some nights playing hide-and-seek or having ridiculous household adventures. It was very warm and sweet, and that's why Alois lost his shit so hard when Claude strayed from him; they really did behave like a honeymooning couple, and losing that was positively awful.
♦ Having grown up an impoverished whelp, Alois had to hammer his previously thick Cockney accent into the much more refined Queen's English he uses today. In game, though, he likes to slide back into that lower class accent on occasion for fun, mostly at people he's quite familiar with already. It's sort of an in-joke with himself.
♦ He's so good at lying about his past and identity that it doesn't even mentally register as a lie. Not even his own heart can perceive his untruths as anything but truths.
♦ Alois Trancy: master of identity theft since 1885.
♦ Headcanon: Alois Trancy was of German and English descent, while Jim Macken came from the Irish and the Roma. Alois-as-Jim's father was an Irishman; his mother had gypsy blood, accounting for Luca Macken's darker complexion and the prejudice against their family.
♦ He absolutely looooves dancing, (headcanon) and his favorite is the Argentine tango.
♦ Oftentimes, especially with anything longer than a note, his handwriting starts out as a very fine, if complicated, cursive slant. He tends to get bored partway through, though, and his lettering becomes progressively more sprawling, and heaven help you if he's got to write a couple of pages' worth of anything: it'll culminate in him essentially dragging his pen across the paper in a rush to get it all over with already.
♦ He is ever so romantic, and loves stupid symbolism. He cries over fairy tales like a tumblr girl cries over the BBC.
♦ His favorite food is greasy fish and chips................
> In Romdeau, Vincent had two of nearly everything in his apartment, even things that didn't make sense for him to have more or less than two. Two plates, two cups, two coffee mugs, two toiletry kits, two bedside tables, two forks, two knives, two spoons, two chairs, two pillows, two towels, two this, two that, you get the picture. This was probably a symptom of Ergo Proxy manifesting in the only way he could given how far into denial and amnesia he was.
> While he's regained most of his memories, it isn't like he has perfect recall of all 5000 years of them. Some of the memories Proxy One gave him are faded because, well, YOU try remembering something that happened to someone else before the beginning of recorded history. He's also fuzzy on the events following his final plunge into depression. He wasn't exactly entirely rational at that point. Whatever he knows who he is now.
> He's not as weak to sunlight as other proxies. Long sleeves and strong sunblock and he's good to go.
> He enjoys working with machines because they're easier to figure out than people. Even if he doesn't know what the problem is yet, it's only a matter of time, and he knows there will always be a solution. Alas, there are no instruction manuals for people.
lisbeth salander | the girl with the dragon tattoo
> She has a twin sister named Camilla whom she loathes
> Her last name Salander is a combination of Sjolander, her mother's last name, and Zalachenko, her father's last name
> SO SHE'S TECHNICALLY HALF-RUSSIAN
and that's all I'm giving out here because the rest could be considered spoilers
Scathach | The Alchemyst
>she has trained great heroes of yore, from achilles to joan of arc
>she is allergic to cats and birds; cats are a psychological allergy that she gave herself because of how much she hates bastet
>she knwos over 600 languages, many of which are dead or were never used by humans
>she killed her only human lover because he went crazy and tried to kill her
>she has no fighting style, whatever that means. she is apparently the "origin" of many modern fighting styles.
>she has a twin sister named aoife whom she absolutey despises
>she may or may not have a daughter

☀ He used to take karate lessons as a little kid and was eventually one of the best in the class. His friend Tatsuki- who at one point goes on to be reserve Vale Tudo champion at her level in Japan- notes that he was better than her, and she's a black belt at least.
☀ Because of this, his highest paying day job is teaching little kids karate at Portside Dojo.
☀ Speaking of little kids, Ichigo has a pretty big soft spot for the little suckers. He's an older brother to two younger twin sisters after all. We're first introduced to him in the manga when he's beating up some punks for knocking over an offering to a dead girl, who he promises to bring fresh flowers for the next day.
☀ He is really, really tough. His body can take a remarkable amount of punishment and he still keeps on getting up to take more; at one point the only thing that stopped him from getting up to keep on fighting was the fact that he had been practically bisected and his body physically could not function. (He got better).
☀ And for that matter, he has a handy habit of getting better after he dies too.
☀ He's also stupidly powerful, probably more so than he realises. He's chock full of spiritual power, exceeding Captain level, to the extent that his body can't actually keep it all contained and it's constantly leaking out of him. Basically means that Ichigo would suck at anything resembling stealth where other spiritually sensitive beings are concerned because he is essentially a walking beacon of immense spiritual power. We are talking monstrously powerful here, at his most base breaking powerful he can knock down a mountain with just the shockwaves of swinging his sword. At his current level, he can part clouds and take down most of a building with a single Getsuga Tenshou.
☀ God help you if you are an older sibling and being a dick to your little sibling because Ichigo has a special place reserved at the top of his ass-kicking list for those sort of people.
☀ Contrary to the more vocal side of the fandom's belief, Ichigo is not the hero of a romance manga and isn't really focused on dating anybody as it stands.
☀ Boxers.
☀ At the moment, he's thinking about maybe pursuing higher education with the aim of getting into med school to become a doctor. He's almost glad his father isn't here so he can be spared the inevitable embarrassing display of "Oh Masaski! Our useless son has finally chosen to walk the noble path set for him by his father and decided to become a respectable member of society just like meeee!" that would probably follow such an announcement.
☀ That being said, he misses Isshin and the girls terribly.

⚖ Like her mother, Mia's got a bit of an artistic eye and sometimes sketches to unwind. She prefers life drawing, and took a few night classes in her first year at law school until the workload increased to the point that she had to give it up.
⚖ She attributes her ability to think up crazy scenarios partly to her mother. Misty's bedtime stories were always unexpectedly gripping, and Mia would drive her mother mad by trying to guess the outcome before she got to it.
⚖ Her favorite food is walnuts. She also enjoys pomegranates.
⚖ Her favorite color is burgundy.
⚖ She's a Gemini; her birthday is May 21st, 1989. Her Chinese zodiac sign is Snake.
⚖ She's not a big jewellery wearer; her ears are pierced and she wears simple studs. She prefers not to wear flashy pieces, but if she does she prefers gold to silver, and garnets and pearls for adornment. Her magatama is a staple piece in her daily wardrobe.
⚖ She loves jazz music; it's a passion she inherited from her father. Gershwin, Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald and Bing Crosby are all favorites of hers, though she enjoys newer jazz. She'll dance and sing along when no-one's around to witness it.
⚖ Mia is an absolutely terrible cook. Besides from working a toaster, the only thing she can actually manage to cook is pasta, and even then her success rate is 85%. The stupid stuff insists on clumping together in a pan.
⚖ After Diego Armando's accident, the smell of hot coffee would always cause Mia to do a double take. The cup of coffee she had when she arrived in Siren's Port was the first she'd had in five years.
⚖ Every Sunday before she died, without fail, Mia would switch off her phone, tell no one where to reach her, and go to sit with Diego at the hospital until visiting hours were over to tell him about her week, her cases, play some music for him and read to him.
⚖ He wasn't her first, or even her second, but he was the first that mattered.
⚖ She's a size 6 - 8, often going larger on the top to accommodate for the D cups filled with justice.
⚖ She has a prescription for reading glasses, thanks to occasional eyestrain incurred from long nights poring over case files and intensively studying notes.
⚖ Her alcoholic drink of choice is Cointreau. She also enjoys good wine and margaritas.
⚖ Her dirty little secret? Until she started working for Grossberg, she had only ever drunk instant coffee.
⚖ Maya isn't the only one in the family who loves burgers. Mia's just a little more reserved in her appreciation.
⚖ For years, Mia was furious with her mother for abandoning her and Maya, even though she understands why she did it. It took her a long time to come to accept and forgive her.
⚖ Charley was a gift from Diego.
⚖ For obvious reasons, she's not very fond of Rodin.
⚖ She and Diego live together in a two bedroom apartment in District 4 with Vladimir the cat and Estragon the dog.

woah i need to stop adding stuff
✿ Headcanon: he has a very poor sense of time! Having been alive for well over a thousand years, and remembering so little of it, it's difficult for him to gauge the length of months and years. (The concept of New Year's celebrations was very bizarre to him for this reason!) To demonstrate, he feels like he was looking a long time for a way to free Kainé from his curse on her, but if you asked him, he wouldn't be able to guess how long.
✿ Headcanon...: the songs on the official piano collection are songs he can play... It's so meta, but he's on the back and inside covers, FIGHT ME.
✿ Halfway headcanon: he loves Italian food... Sure, he comes from a post-apocalyptic world, but his butler was created back when Italy still existed, so Emil gets some delicious pasta dishes.
✿ This is some of the more extreme headcanon that will never be used anywhere ever, but I like to think about it... Emil and his sister Halua were, thirteen hundred years ago, largely of Russian and German descent. Originally from a wealthy family, the Hamelin Organization was their last hope for safety. (THAT WENT WELL)
✿ He's crushing hard on Nier. In the game, this is more evident with Brother Nier than it is with Father Nier (lol canon AUs)— even then, though, Emil is freakishly overzealous about protecting ALL of his nakama. Seriously, he gets surprisingly hysterical.
✿ He's partial to stories of romance...
✿ One of the first signs that Kainé might not be so bad is that Emil trusts her implicitly, no matter how violent and abrasive she is. :U His affection for her is born of her willingness to accept him and his freaky eye curse immediately, despite him having hidden himself away for years and years in order to keep from hurting or scaring other people. They might seem like near polar opposites, but they're a little more similar than one would think, as seen when they separately come up with the same bizarre, made-up expletive for a particularly nasty monster...
✿ Headcanon: he stopped aging just a couple months shy of thirteen, meaning he never reached his growth spurt... :( (Canon fact: he's only about 4'7"! ;_; )
✿ He can wield a staff(/rod)...! Though he's never shown to do this while still blindfolded (and some other spoilery stuff), his character sheet lists it as a weapon. All in all, he's more formidable than you might think.
✿ Slightly headcanon...? His eyes petrify 'anything' he looks at— but if something's caught in his peripheral vision, it won't turn to stone. (Though, let's not test that...!) He can look at things like the sky and the sea, too, since they're not something you can really petrify, but he prefers not to because that's how accidents happen. The petrification curse, though, is hax enough that he's needed to be knocked out before a boss battle for game plot's sake.
✿ He's named for Ludwig Emil Grimm, the younger of the Grimm brothers.
✿ Headcanon: he's prone to playing repetitive music to pass the time; he spent so many centuries whittling away the days doing next to nothing alone in his manor, after all. That's how his musical hobby developed in the first place.
✿ It's uncanny how good he is at walking around without running into things...
✿ He names his attacks after himself like a magical girl............................
✿ A neat party trick of his (and VERY USEFUL SKILL, all things considered) is that he can identify the general age and sex of a person by listening to their gait. He's usually pretty close in his guesses, too!
and, SPOILERS ↓↓↓↓↓↓↓↓
✿ He was born over a thousand years before his friends, and he'll survive for at least hundreds of years after they die. :( :( :( Cavia is suffering...
Re: woah i need to stop adding stuff
aaaa i KEEP DOING TOO MANY
♦ When he was very young, he used to dress up in flower crowns and pretend he was a girl. Show of hands if you're surprised. Anyone? Anyone? Despite this, he's got his share of latent (?) misogyny going on...
♦ Only halfway headcanon: he's one of those 'problem children' who seeks negative attention because he's hungry for any attention at all. This means that if he's absolutely insufferable to you, he probably really likes you. See also: pulling Ciel's hair, everything he says to Gilbert Nightray.
♦ Headcanon: his favorite fairy tale is Little Red Riding Hood, mostly because he's dramatic and identifies really strongly with it. Rapunzel and Sleeping Beauty are up there, too, and he also really loves Hansel and Gretel, because brother complex.
♦ He's got a ridiculous oral fixation, and spends an inappropriate amount of time touching his mouth and stuff. Headcanon: this fixation extends to other people's mouths, too, though; Claude's mouth was always something special to him, and he likes sticking his fingers in Ciel's mouth whenever possible. Gross.
♦ Headcanon: his weirdo creeper relationship with Ciel's teeth has a bit of a Freudian excuse for it, too. In Victorian England, it wasn't uncommon to have one's teeth pulled and sold off for various... purposes. This was often a practice reserved for lower class folk with some nice teeth still in their head. Alois is quite proud of how nice his teeth are now - after some tailoring from Claude early on in their contract because fuck dentists - but to the grubby street urchin still stuck inside him somewhere, Ciel's mouth is a veritable gold mine.
♦ He DOES wear trousers sometimes, specially in the winter. (Headcanon: but when the trousers come out, so does the trouble. One of my favorite running gags for Alois in game is that if something terrible happens to him, he's usually specified as wearing trousers that day. Maybe his thighs are good luck...)
♦ By the by, his sometimes questionable sense of fashion functions primarily as a visual statement: Fuck you, I'll do literally whatever I want. Perhaps you can appreciate exactly how bold his shorts were in the Victorian era. He appreciates audacity.
♦ Headcanon: he really does enjoy the occasional scrap with other boys. It's fun to assert his dominance, and he likes to lord himself over people. He has a good tolerance for physical altercations like this, so it doesn't really bother him.
♦ His favorite colors are traditional wedding colors of the Victorian era.
♦ Halfway headcanon: back in the 'honeymoon phase' of their contract, Alois and Claude were quite friendly with each other, each indulging in their own silliness with one another. They'd while away some nights playing hide-and-seek or having ridiculous household adventures. It was very warm and sweet, and that's why Alois lost his shit so hard when Claude strayed from him; they really did behave like a honeymooning couple, and losing that was positively awful.
♦ Having grown up an impoverished whelp, Alois had to hammer his previously thick Cockney accent into the much more refined Queen's English he uses today. In game, though, he likes to slide back into that lower class accent on occasion for fun, mostly at people he's quite familiar with already. It's sort of an in-joke with himself.
♦ He's so good at lying about his past and identity that it doesn't even mentally register as a lie. Not even his own heart can perceive his untruths as anything but truths.
♦ Alois Trancy: master of identity theft since 1885.
♦ Headcanon: Alois Trancy was of German and English descent, while Jim Macken came from the Irish and the Roma. Alois-as-Jim's father was an Irishman; his mother had gypsy blood, accounting for Luca Macken's darker complexion and the prejudice against their family.
♦ He absolutely looooves dancing, (headcanon) and his favorite is the Argentine tango.
♦ Oftentimes, especially with anything longer than a note, his handwriting starts out as a very fine, if complicated, cursive slant. He tends to get bored partway through, though, and his lettering becomes progressively more sprawling, and heaven help you if he's got to write a couple of pages' worth of anything: it'll culminate in him essentially dragging his pen across the paper in a rush to get it all over with already.
♦ He is ever so romantic, and loves stupid symbolism. He cries over fairy tales like a tumblr girl cries over the BBC.
♦ His favorite food is greasy fish and chips................

Vincent Law | Ergo Proxy
> While he's regained most of his memories, it isn't like he has perfect recall of all 5000 years of them. Some of the memories Proxy One gave him are faded because, well, YOU try remembering something that happened to someone else before the beginning of recorded history. He's also fuzzy on the events following his final plunge into depression. He wasn't exactly entirely rational at that point. Whatever he knows who he is now.
> He's not as weak to sunlight as other proxies. Long sleeves and strong sunblock and he's good to go.
> He enjoys working with machines because they're easier to figure out than people. Even if he doesn't know what the problem is yet, it's only a matter of time, and he knows there will always be a solution. Alas, there are no instruction manuals for people.
