It's helpful if you have a public social media account I can look at; I don't really want to completely rely on your own view of yourself. So basically, I'll take a look at the person you are online and see if I can read any subtext. Once I get a good idea of how I perceive you, I'll write a short paragraph describing you like an author describes their characters. I think it'd be fun to do and help me use my creative and analytical side of my brain. Regardless, here are a few questions that might help me to start:

Favorite song/songs? Limit 5 max.
Favorite color and why?
Favorite time of day/night?
Morning routine?
How often do you use your notes app? For what?
What are you normally doing when with a group of friends?

Favorite song/songs? Limit 5 max.

Six Forty Seven by Instupendo, Dancefloor Orgy by TeddyLoid, Treehouse by Alex G

Favorite color and why?

Red. More specifically, crimson. Red is told to be the color of anger and passion, which are both emotions I feel on a regular day-to-day basis.

Favorite time of day/night?

That perfect moment where the sun is setting and the sky turns into a lovely blue/pink/orange gradient. Splendid.

Morning routine?

Wake up, make my bed, brush my hair (sometimes) and my teeth, put on the clothes I wore yesterday (that I have sitting on the floor), then watch TV to pass some time.

How often do you use your notes app? For what?

I don't have a notes app, but I have a small little journal I carry everywhere. I doodle in it, and other times I write some poems in it or something.

What are you normally doing when with a group of friends?

Irl, I'm normally just listening to music and fading into the background whilst my friends chat away. Online, I'm often posting random memes for us to share our thoughts on because hey why not, right?

I would say she's "not like other girls", but let's be honest, even Emily knows there's no such thing as 'other girls'. Regardless, she's a fanfiction's favorite side character. The one with more personality than the main character. She romanticizes the world in hopes that one day, the world will romanticize her back, yet somehow, she's okay with where she's at right now. Loving the earth for who she is, existing without obligation. She's okay if all she did today was breathe; she's the serenity everyone wishes for when they can't sleep.
Mother Nature sends her regards. Father Time huffs his jealousies. She's the peaceful moment when a deer takes a sip of the water from a lake, and a bear across the stream blinks slowly at his brother. She's the still before a gentle breeze, but she's also the eye of the storm. Stillness surrounded by chaos. She's the comfort that reminds you that, though things aren't perfect, you can survive. And if you can survive, you can live. And if you can live, you can thrive.

I would say she's "not like other girls", but let's be honest, even Emily knows there's no such thing as 'other girls'.

ahh this was so lovely!!
i've always though of myself as a side character but hey at least i now know that i'm the favorite >:D
but fr, all jokes aside, this was a very sweet little tidbit and it made my day :) thank you lovely stranger for that

Aa this looks super cool, I’d love to see how an author would write me 😍

Favorite song/songs?
Like real people do -Hozier
Feed the machine -Poor Man’s Poison
Everything at once -Lenka

Favorite color and why?
Steel blue; it’s just a very calming color to me. More interesting and colorful than just a normal gray, but muted enough to be relaxing.

Favorite time of day/night?
The golden hour around 6 or 7pm

Morning routine?
In a good day I wake up slowly, resting as long as I can while still half asleep. Get out of bed, wrap a blanket around my shoulders to go make a cup of coffee and have some cereal.

How often do you use your notes app? For what?
All the time. For story ideas, planning roleplay posts, character ideas etc. heck, I’m using my notes app right now to answer all the questions lol

What are you normally doing when with a group of friends?
I’m usually the quiet one. I have to interrupt people to get a word in, which isn’t often, but when I do chime in it’s a witty comment I came up with that hopefully still related to the subject of conversation. If not, my comment sounds out of place, but usually the person I’m closest to in the group still laughs.

Yeah I'll hop on this ig, I'm bored too

Favorite song/songs? Limit 5 max.

Fly Me To The Moon (Frank Sinatra), Snowman (SIA), Anything by Cavetown, Conan Gray, or Alec Benjamin

Favorite color and why?

Oh god 😓 I genuinely do not know my favorite color and I'm not sure how people just like?? Know what theirs is?? Like what if I just choose one but I'm lying to myself and it isn't actually my favorite color?? Send help 🙏. I can tell you that my least favorite color is orange though

Favorite time of day/night?

Like 1-2 am 😎

Morning routine?

Wake up at like 10 am, lay in bed until lunch, maybe get dressed if I've got somewhere to be 🤷

How often do you use your notes app? For what?

Only on occasion. I keep track of what animes I watch (since my memory is terrible) so if I start a new one or finish one I add it to the list. I also occasionally keep track of songs I like or movies I want to watch.

What are you normally doing when with a group of friends?

Bold of you to assume I have friends 💅. I guess when I'm hanging out with my boyfriend though we usually watch TV or a movie or something. Or Miscellaneous stuff like ice skating or going to the park ig, but mostly TV shows and movies

Aa this looks super cool, I’d love to see how an author would write me 😍

It's funny, but in a bittersweet way; Leslie observes everything, every inch of the world because they don't know how to observe themself. They surround themselves with just a piece of everything, consuming classic literature because the modern world couldn't even begin to make sense of who they are. Leslie knows this, but sometimes, they just don't really care. They'd rather observe the world than be observed. Their beauty is hard to understand to the simple-minded, so they acknowledge that they're not everyone's cup of tea (or coffee, depends on how you're feeling).
Regardless, Leslie can be curious. What kind of person do people see them as? The background character that gives the scene more depth? The main character whose story hasn't started yet? The company that everyone wants, but no one gets? They don't know if they want to put in the effort to understand themself; it just seems like it would get too far into the deep end, and that's scary. For now, they'd much rather remain as the conundrum that they are. If only they put themself out there, maybe someone that enjoys a good puzzle would love to figure them out.

I would say she's "not like other girls", but let's be honest, even Emily knows there's no such thing as 'other girls'.

awwwh omg,, my heart,, that all was so perfect thank you <3 I love it sm!

(just gonna apologize rq if I call u out but I'm noticing some stuff here whew)

Maddie, oh dear Maddie. The comic relief for their own tragedy. Everyone would miss them, and they pretend like they think that's the truth, but deep down, something tells them they'd be forgotten, and it gets under their skin. Maddie doesn't have any problems, right? They're the lovable character that always puts a smile on your face. They say they don't have a favorite color, but the color they represent most is purple. Constantly in a conflict of what temperature they are, and unable to settle. Purple is confusion, but Maddie is outwardly confident to hide their constant indecision.
Sometimes you want to just look Maddie in the eyes and say, "Hey, take yourself on a date. You deserve it." Maddie's afraid of looking inside themself because they're afraid of what they might find. The unknown can be scary, but if only Maddie knew that finding oneself brings about the most internal peace. If they're not using the time after midnight to look inside themself, they should be sleeping.

No problem it was super fun to write!

oh that looks so cool

Favorite song/songs? Limit 5 max.

ok this will be hard
"Black Swan Orchestral Version", BTS
"Oh Beautiful Town", IAMX
"Mothers", Daughter
"When You Come Home", Paradise Fears

Favorite color and why?

I used to like red, but now it's gray. It's just like me, somewhat dull but if you mix it with other colors, you'll be able to make a masterpiece.

Favorite time of day/night?

When the sun isn't quite setting yet, but you wouldn't call it 'afternoon' anymore.

Morning routine?

I wake up, dress myself, eat breakfast, wash myself, brush my hair, and off to school.

How often do you use your notes app? For what?

I use it from time to time, when I need to write down something important or worth remembering. My last note is "gay chickens".

What are you normally doing when with a group of friends?

Mixing talking about some deep stuff, like the afterlife or our worldview, and goofing around. We like to laugh a lot and make fun of ourselves while discussing the ethics of Schrödinger's cat.

edit: changed a song. I'm indecisive.

audible sweating about accuracy 👀

Favorite song/songs? Limit 5 max.
This is hard because I am a music addict, but here are a few I like a lot:

… Lost by Andy Mineo
Born to Live by About A Mile
Warrior (featuring John Cooper) by LEDGER
Blue by Eiffel 65 (yes; fight me)
Beethoven's 5 Secrets by The Piano Guys

Favorite color and why?
I like a lot of colors, but my favorite is silver or grey, any shade. It's calm, neutral, sophisticated, and constantly suspended between light and dark. It's not as saturated as black— not too dark, not too light, but anywhere in between. It pairs well with other colors but does fine on its own. It's neither a cool nor warm color, holds no allegiance. Storms are grey; rocks are grey; most metals are grey. Some people find it boring or bland, but it's my favorite. My least favorite color is hot pink. It makes me angry when I see it for some reason. It's too garish and makes me want to vomit.

Favorite time of day/night?
About 3-5 AM. That time of night when even the "night-owls" have fallen asleep, but the early risers aren't usually up yet either, and you can be in peace. I also enjoy evenings. My least favorite time of day is midday, from 9 AM to about 4 PM.

Morning routine?
I like to get up as early as possible, though I have a bad habit of sleeping in. I like being left alone to exercise, read, and think for awhile, then start working to get things done.

How often do you use your notes app? For what?
All the time, mostly for character concepts and planning my day(s).

What are you normally doing when with a group of friends?
I don't hang out with groups of friends. When I'm unfortunate enough to get stuck in a crowd of people, I usually make dry quippy remarks and think about how long until I get to go home. When I hang out one-on-one with a friend, I'm more engaging, but I still make the dry quips.

This is hard because I am a music addict, but here are a few I like a lot:

(oK Idk exactly what to call u but reading this gave me hella Skylar vibes from a character in one book I read when I was a kid so that's the name imma use if that's ok:) if u rather I fix the pronouns/name lmk and I will no problem!)

Skylar, the analytical go-getter. They know exactly what they want, and will stop at nothing to get it. Distractions? Never heard of that. They are constantly moving, constantly doing, constantly living. Skylar is the unstoppable force, the inevitable thunder, the fired-up warrior. They'll sleep when they're dead, they say, but unfortunately, that might be a bit too close to home than it should be.
Skylar almost can't stop, else they might be forced to sit with their own self, and that's much too heavy to deal with. The passage of time could never slow down for Skylar, so they will never slow down out of spite. There seems to be a constant reminder of the inevitability that all things come to an end, always following Skylar around, and no matter how fast they run, that shadow will remain at their feet.

LMFAAOO when I posted urs i was like "boi this is gonna get real awkward if it's not accurate"

Why'd you have to call me out like that XD
Jk, kind of, but also yes

oho jeez this looks funnnn

Favorite song/songs? Limit 5 max.
Welcome to the Black Parade - MCR : Lose Yourself - Eminem : Sound of Silence - Disturbed : House of Memories - P!ATD : High Voltage - Linkin Park

Favorite color and why?
Purples, blues, and reds. I like them because they can be both comforting and intense, and often colors I use to reflect my mood. However, my favorite color of all time is tyrian purple because it's bold, intense, but also cool and calming.

Favorite time of day/night?
Whenever the sun's down. The sun's waay too hot and the night is when all the best ideas come.

Morning routine?
Get up, stare at wall for half an hour, get dressed, do hair, do makeup, leave.

How often do you use your notes app? For what?
I rarely use it but when I do it's for a) incorrect quotes, b) story ideas, or c) memes.

What are you normally doing when with a group of friends?
I'm usually being restrained from blowing something up. I'm very impulsive and just do whatever feels right in the moment. My friends are usually my impulse control and braincell.

oh that looks so cool

how tf u slip past me sneaky anyway

Hello, you. Okay, you're quite different, so I'll be narrating this in the first person. You're the happy ending to a movie, you're the celebration in the rain. You're the wind in the hair at sunrise on an old pickup truck. You are the moment that affects everyone but no one realizes. You're a mouse with a sword; a butterfly effect. You're the last tear of a good, healthy cry session.
I would try to give you some advice, something about how maybe you should be louder, make sure you're heard and seen, but you kind of already are, just in a very passive way. You're making a difference. You're making a change. You might not even realize it, but you are the reason humans keep moving forward. You are the difference. Keep doing what you're doing, even if you don't know what that is.

LMFAAOO when I posted urs i was like "boi this is gonna get real awkward if it's not accurate"

Yeahhh lmao it's kinda dependant on me being depressed and confused and honestly we sad afghkll ✋😩

oho jeez this looks funnnn

all i gotta say is, i hope ur doing ok babes

MJ holds the energy of the sun; do not even dare to try to stop her. She will burn you down, figuratively AND literally. She is the chaos that forms the tornados, she is the confusion that you can't figure out, and you're not supposed to. She's an open book whose pages won't stop turning. God forbid you actually read the pages, she won't be understood, even if she wants to be. MJ lays herself out, but people are put-off by her energy, and the laziness of most people causes them to never take a second glance.
Listen to MJ play, and maybe you'll actually feel her soul. She's so expressive, of course you'd see her spirit when she plays, it just makes sense. Matching her energy surely isn't the easiest thing to do, but when you do, you'd have befriended the human culmination of the sunshine.

oh that looks so cool

how tf u slip past me sneaky anyway

I've become so good at avoiding any kind of social interactions that now I do it unintentionally

and oh my, do I really give off that vibe? I think I'm underestimating myself. You described me so creatively, I'm thankful. This made my day.

Heh, very glad you liked it! I gotta say, though, I think you're really cool and hope u have a wonderful day everyday forever (I guess I used better words when I was writi-anyway,)
