"Let's get comfortable. You got a nickname I can call you?"[/font]
Cass is fine.
"'S cute. Mind if I just call you babe? Cool. So, babe, what's cooking - for those just listening?"[/font]
-shifts uncomfortably in her seat, a bit flushed- Well .. people tell me I look a lot older than I actually am. I don't really get it, I think I look 18 but I suppose looking older has it's advantages at times. -shrugs slightly, getting a bit more comfortable- My appearance uh .. -looks down at herself- I don't by any means have the nicest clothes or much fashion sense. I don't believe in that material kind of stuff, I just wear what is generally comfortable. I'm a fan of boy jeans, actually. They look a little ridiculous on me because I'm so small, but I've gotten lot of handy-me-downs from my brothers so. I don't real wear a lot of make up or spend anytime making myself look nice in the morning. My morning routine generally takes ten minutes minus a shower. My hair is long and naturally blond, but I've been debating about dying it for a while now. I just can't decide.
"Cute. Wore that just for me, huh? Speaking of which, give me the details. Gay? Straight? Look kinda like a swinger to me.. Care for a drink or a smoke, babe?"[/font]
Oh no no .. if my brothers ever saw you offering me that kind of stuff they'd rip your head off. -shakes her head a bit- I don't drink or smoke and I'm straight. I don't disapprove of drugs and drinking too much, I've always been curious about them but I've never had a drink or smoked a joint in my life. I guess you can say I'm scared after seeing what Caine is battling to this day. That and he would probably try to keep me locked away for as long as possible if he ever found out. I guess you can say I'm a little curious but who isn't?
"Damn. Get some! ha! Chill out. So, swear this won't get leaked anywhere but.. got any secrets? Come on, you can tell me!"[/font]
-blushes- Nope. None.
[ OOC; SHE'S A VIRGIN. :o dun dun dun. ]
"..Ouch. Okay, don't be so cold kid. There's always a way out of shit like that. Got any ambitions, babe? Nah, really. Where do you see yourself in ten years?"[/font]
I want to be a writer. -smiles brightly- I don't think I have the patience to write a book or the creativity, but I'm majoring in journalism so hopefully I can write for a big time news paper or magazine. Can you imagine writing for say .. Time Magazine or New York Times? It would be amazing! But ten years form now .. -shrugs- who knows, I'm hoping to be successful but you never know what life will throw at you.
"Okay, okay. Don't get too excited. Half those are just hearing about you. Now let's see.. Oh, here we go. Tell me a bit about yourself. Likes, dislikes, strengths and weaknesses - all that. Sports? Art? Give me some dirt![/font]
As you can probably guess I'm not the athletic type. In High school I was the person who was picked last for the baseball or kickball game. I like art, but some of it is just complete rubbish to me. Some painters just paint the most ridiculous things .. It's amazing that they sell their art at all. I wish I had the ability to draw and I really admire those who do. I love going to art shows to see what people can do. Though I am more of a fan art kind of person. You know, people who are superheros or concept art for characters in books. I love that kind of stuff. -laughs a bit-
As you can probably guess I'm pretty nerdy or geeky or whatever you like to say. I love comics and I've played some of the old video games but I've kind of grown out of that .. I guess. I really like school which people think is a little off. I just like to learn new things, I'm always trying to figure out more about the world. Some of my brothers like to make fun of me because I generally always have a book with me no matter where I go. -grins a bit- I like reading adventure stories. It's just nice to submerge yourself into the life and times of someone else, someone who has a lot more to live for, I guess.
Strengths .. umm. I guess school would be a strength. Reading, thinking before I act generally. I really don't have many strengths -laughs nervously- I'm nothing special. As far as weaknesses go I have a few. More then my strengths at lest. -thinks for a moment- I can't really list any off the top of my head but .. oh! I get really awkward in bad situations. Like if you tell me that your mother just died I would start laughing hysterically. uncontrollably. I don't know why, I just don't know how to react to those kins of things. I'm not very good at sympathy I guess you can say ..
Other then that I'm not that interesting. People think I come off as Judgmental, others think I come off as an uppity bitch but I really just have this grand plan and I don't want any distractions, you know? I'm really none of the things people think of me, they just don't bother to see that I suppose.
"Kinky, ha! Couldn't agree more. 'Nyways, one last thing. How'd you get where you are today - what's your background?"[/font]
My background .. -pauses, looking down at her shirt, playing with a loose strong at the bottom of it- I'm the youngest of course children and I am the only girl, so as you can guess I have three very protective oleo brothers. My mom isn't around anymore, and to be honest I really don't remember her. I was young when she passed away, but I've seen pictures. Apparently I am her spitting image, which I feel awkward about. I know Caine remembers her very well, being the eldest, so I always think that it's an eyesore for him to see him on a daily basis.
My father isn't the nicest man. Actually, I wouldn't really call him a man at all. He is an abusive alcoholic who always got a thrill out of kicking the crap out of my brothers. He never actually hit me thankfully, my brothers always getting his attention before he could ever get the chance. -lets a small laugh pass nervously under her breath- I just don't understand how anyone could do that to their children .. I mean, you created them, how can you hurt them, how can you .. -shakes her head- I'll never understand, and I will never forgive him for what he has put this family though.
Once Caine as old enough he moved out and took us with him. At the time he had already been battling drug problems, so my other brothers weren't as thrilled to jump at the idea of moving in with him but I was. He was the closest thing to a real parent I ever had, even if I was taking care of him more then the other way around. We got along alright, my parents had a good lump sum of money and Caine had some kind of income coming in. I never asked questions, but he always made sure I ha lunch money an clothes frowning up. Needless to say I'm close to my eldest brother. He got the most .. screw up from my father and I will always be there for him. I may be a little harsh on him at times but I love him more than anyone else.
-silence-
Once I got to high school I did really well. I joined every extra curricular activity I could to help myself get into a good college. Not to mention as much as I loved staying with my brother I wanted to be home as little as possible. It was a better situation then living with my father, but I never knew what he was going to be on when I got home and I hated seeing him like that. I tried to get him to go to rehab for such a long time but he just wasn't having it. Thank god Mika came into his life or he would have already been dead in a ditch somewhere.
At one point I was so concerned about Caine that I went to see my father again. I mean we kept in touch by phone but I hadn't actually seen him in years. He sobered up - I was happy that he did it, but I couldn't say I was proud or trusted him. He actually had the audacity to ask me to move back in with him, told me to talk to my brothers about it. He wanted to make amends for what he did. Everyone agreed to at lest go talk to him but Caine refused. I couldn't blame him, after everything he put Caine through. So I ended up staying with Caine and my other brothers moved back with my dad. So far things are going alright there from what I understand. I visit every week - but that house is not a home. It just holds such awful memories, I don't know how they stay there.
"Shiiit. Well at least you got yourself babe, can't take that away. And me. -winks- What I'm joking! Kind of. Anyways, relax while we evaluate you, get you into your place, alright? Also, we can't even accept you if your faceclaim has not been posted yet. Post in the faceclaim = your ticket to acceptance. Other than.. you know. Being accepted. A'ight, I'm out - peace."
