I could yap about them all for hours fr – and I can't forget corvids <33 I love corvids so much

❝ Misty mountains sing and beckon ❞

｡･:*˚:✧ SECTION TWO ⊹ general questions . . .

ੈ✩ 03. roleplaying experience ꒱
☾ I have roleplayed for many years now, and was a part of the Generations community for about a year and a half, and even before that I would find ways to craft stories with all my plushies when I was younger. Roleplaying is something I adore so much, and Scratch's community here has helped me learn how to grow and become a better writer!

ੈ✩ 04. activity on a scale of 1-10 ꒱
☾ 7.5/10, I make sure to check Scratch daily, and most of the time I come here multiple times in a row, and I aim to respond to one thread per day at the very least <3

ੈ✩ 05. do i mentally/physically harm my characters? ꒱
☾ no, I do not, unless other external circumstances affect this, my characters rarely go through anything harmful!

ੈ✩ 06. current and past characters in rp communities ꒱
☾ I own no characters aside from a crk roleplay as pvc, and I am aiming to stay in tss/tfc specifically! However, for my past characters, I have owned Rosefeather, Marrowpaw, and Maggotkit in Generations as well as many others that are too far to count, and I believe I owned a PyroClan cat at one point a long while back? Though I can't remember their name.

❝ Lead me out into the light ❞

｡･:*˚:✧ SECTION THREE ⊹ about the kitten . . .

ੈ✩ 07. kitten i'm applying for ꒱
☾ mercykit!!! ･･･ like soft honey that trickles down the stream, a gentle imprint that leaves the lightest of marks, and yet it is of most comfort <3

ੈ✩ 08. future goals ꒱
☾ ･･･ for the future, i would like mercy to lead a well meaning life, perhaps go through an arc where she doesn't bottle up her emotions properly and explodes at someone, that would be fun yes? i want to frequently roleplay with her, and give her a full life. she will be kept forever and ever, even beyond if she were to ever die in tss (..which isn't happening on my watch) and i'd like to also maintain lots of familial relationships, and focus lots on relations and the such!!!

ੈ✩ 09. simplified personality ꒱
☾ positive ⊹ empathetic, sweet, sharing, compassionate, curious, gracious
☾ neutral ⊹ soft-spoken, reserved, shy, dreamy, mellow
☾ negative ⊹ brittle, cautious, dependent, dissonant, gullible, melancholic

ੈ✩ 10. detailed personality ꒱

☾ positives ･･･ empathetic, sweet, sharing, compassionate, curious, gracious

☆ empathetic ⋆ the action of understanding, being aware of, being sensitive to, and vicariously experiencing the feelings, thoughts, and experience of another
. . . mercy will feel for those whom experience pain, to be wrought upon the every emotion that crosses the mind. she seeks only to empathize, to be the one that is turned to when all is down, and even if it is for the pain, at least it is her and not another? least, that's the thought process that plagues her mind, a justification for that of which is wrong, to merely dwindle it down to empathizing. her feelings are amplified through the magnifying glass of another.

☆ sweet ⋆ pleasing to the mind or feelings
. . . the lady is like honey, a sweet scent that fills your senses in a manner of right. mercy knows the words to say when the world is filled to the brim with darkness, she searches to enlighten the lives of her friends and family, to give them light and to turn the world to a blinding good. her mission is that of good nature, and she will forever seek to continue her journey.

☆ sharing ⋆ : to partake of, use, experience, occupy, or enjoy with others
. . . mercy seeks to ensure the equality in every cat, to split the feelings and prey evenly, that is what she would like to do. and so she does, everything is at an equilibrium, to stray the line of both evil and good. mercy ensures that others see her viewpoint as such by her constant sharing, even just a simple thank you counts in her eyes.

☆ compassionate ⋆ sympathetic consciousness of others' distress together with a desire to alleviate it
. . . she can't help but want to heal thy's ailments, to smooth the road so that one refuses to continue fretting. mercy begins through her compassion, offering out a heart of gold, and giving it in a casing of warmth. her soul reaches out to the lost, a guide in a forest that seems to be clouded in the fog of shadow. she is a candle, illuminating the room of night.

☆ curious ⋆ marked by desire to investigate and learn
. . . mercy finds her curiosity peeked by the smallest of inquiries, be it a bug, or perhaps a new flower. she finds the truth hidden underneath the rocks, and seeks it fervently, to find all the knowledge upon this land and store it, to share it with those who want. mercy searches the nooks and crannies, the river's flow, behind many a places. perhaps, one day, she'll go on a journey across the land, to seek all knowledge that exists.

☆ gracious ⋆ marked by kindness and courtesy
. . . a lady draped in silk, the soft flutter of beating wings, and a heart that could fill the skies with it's warmth. mercy fulfills all the customs and the standards of society, she finds beauty through small greetings, to ensure she says please and thank you when required. she flies upon wings of a seraphim, and has the grace of someone beyond her years.

☾ neutrals ･･･ soft-spoken, reserved, shy, dreamy, mellow

☆ soft-spoken ⋆ having a mild or gentle voice
. . . though mercy's ways are only for good, her voice is low and unheard, a whisper across a rushing stream that can only be heard through deep meditation. she murmurs, to share, and yet it's all for naught? so gentle, like a mother nurturing her children, mercy will continue to speak for those whom need it. because even a soft droplet sends ripples down a puddle.

☆ reserved ⋆ restrained in words and actions
. . . merci is quite reserved, usually frolicking in the back of the crowds and never being one who is attracted to noises and rowdiness. she would much rather prefer to stay in the background, an apparition to be ignored, or perhaps even to close her heart up and to no longer feel for that which is pushed upon her.

☆ shy ⋆ easily frightened
. . . the lady does not truly know how to interact with her fellow clanmates, and finds interactions difficult between her and others. similar to her reservedness, she seems to be closed off and difficult whenever she meets someone new. and merci does try to not feel that way, but it really is in her nature. she hides behind a silken drape, to be hidden from a tainted world.

☆ dreamy ⋆ pleasantly abstracted from immediate reality
. . . her thoughts always seem to be in the clouds, a distant film pressed over doe green eyes. lost in the spiderweb of dreams, encased in a fragile box and locked up far far away. she has quite the imagination too, a blank canvas that she always has the ability to paint over, to mimic the ways of her world and further, endless possibilities at her clawtips.

☆ mellow ⋆ having a soft and loamy consistency
. . . mercykit is very mellow in her dreamlike state, as opposed to her usual fierce compassion for others. she deals with her emotions accordingly, and has many ways of coping, and so from the outside this personality appears to be mellow. an even seesaw that never tips in one direction, two emotions that balance one another out, and a perfect synchronization.

☾ negatives ･･･ brittle, cautious, dependent, dissonant, gullible, melancholic

☆ brittle ⋆ easily broken, cracked, or snapped
. . . her heart is made of glass, broken at the first touch. merci cannot take any form of criticism, be it constructive or not. she is brittle, fragile, broken, so many words. but glass is deadly, isn't it? with shards that pierce the skin, and a voice that can bring to an octave so high to shatter even the skies above. you wouldn't want to see a mercy in pieces.

☆ cautious ⋆ careful about avoiding danger or risk
. . . mercy seems to abide by the cautionary tales, heed their every word without question. she is always searching for danger, not to partake in it, but to avoid it. she doesn't like the concept of being hurt, or whatever danger entails, and so she runs away from her problems, pawsteps leaving a trail of dust as she clears the area. her abode to never welcome danger.

☆ dependent ⋆ determined or conditioned by another
. . . she relies on the words and validation of others, a kind word being amplified in her heart and soul. merci is dependent on those she loves, her family and friends, all of them. every action is more than what appears at the surface, and she is always seeking kind words from others, though they are not always respondent.

☆ dissonant ⋆ an instance of such inconsistency or disagreement
. . . mercy is inconsistent with her arguments, for when she is hurt she loses all sense of self and what is right and wrong. her mind is blurred from the lens of wrong, and a muddle of colors clouds her vision. she lashes out, akin to a bottle that has broken from being too warm and then having cold water splashed on it, her shards cutting.

☆ gullible ⋆ easily duped or cheated
. . . the lady falls to deception quite easily, believing what everyone says at face value and nothing further, which does lead to quite a few complications down the road. if you were to point up at a ceiling and ask what does it say, she would look up </3 this is due to her very compassionate and empathetic nature, which implores her to believe anyone who comes to her for aid.

☆ melancholic ⋆ a state of sadness
. . . merci is quite melancholic, feeling as if she must always take upon the burdens of others and weigh it heavy upon her shoulders. she will take all the darkness and unload it unto herself, even if it does not appear to be appealing to her mental state, she does not care if it is for the benefit of others. mercy prioritizes others over herself after all.

☆ how does her personality develop?
☾ ･･･ during kithood, i want to actually roleplay her more rambunctious like a regular kit, as opposed to the jrp i have done thus far which was portraying her more later personality. she will be quite active and hyper, and i want her to meet a lot of falconclan cats, that is until she becomes an apprentice and mellows out, forming into a much more malleable and shy type of cat. this personality continues to develop onwards, reaching the state that this application is written in. and then, during warriorhood, she will become much much more closed off and lash out at her fellow clanmates (see future plans) and during this time period mercy will be quite off-putting, refusing to be her regular self. i would also like to find another cat for some dynamics to help her find the light, and so that she shifts back to her default personality by the end of it all. and during elderhood mercy would tell lots of stories to the kits and teach them about kindness and the such.

❝ I will ride, I will fly ❞

｡･:*˚:✧ SECTION FOUR ⊹ miscellaneous . . .

ੈ✩ 11. dynamics ꒱

☾ SPIDERLILY-FLARE ･･･ positive ‧₊˚
✧.* mercykit looks up to her mother sincerely, often finding comfort in the mere presence of her. she would find herself to often cling and look up to spiderlily, and feel mildly jealous if she sees her siblings receiving more attention. she will go to her mama for anything she needs, and confide in her over everything. merci would also wish to weave flower crowns with her mother, as that is an activity she adores a lot ⸝⸝

☾ REVERENCEKIT (@fawniinq-) ･･･ positive ‧₊˚
✧.* she finds her brother to be lots of fun around, and enjoys the times they have together. she feels the urge to protect him at all costs though, and will often go flying together while they enjoy the peaceful air and the cold wind brushing across their feathers. they like to observe flowers together as well, and stand atop mountains. ⸝⸝

☾ REVERENCEKIT (@tovioupop) ･･･ positive ‧₊˚
✧.* merci loves her brother dearly, and the same can be said for the above dynamic. they would have lots of fun times together, and she'd seek a steady relationship with him as she does with all her family. ⸝⸝

❝ Where dark woods hide secrets
And mountains are fierce and bold
Deep waters hold reflections
Of times lost long ago
I will hear their every story
Take hold of my own dream
Be as strong as the seas are stormy
And proud as an eagle's scream ❞
