Character: Hayato Sakura
Series: Sougiya Riddle
Character Age: 17
Canon: Sougiya Riddle is a cautionary tale about the dangers of making contracts with smooth-talking strangers who aren’t above using your soul as a bargaining chip. For Hayato Sakura, this is the real life. And after having his dream of a carefree seventeenth birthday dashed by the theft of half his soul, he is left with the choice of losing his life or spending it basically married to a creeper reaper in a great pair of heels. After entering the contract he becomes Undertaker Riddle’s partner, helping him lay evil spirits to rest in funeral services so full of roses, chains and partner-sexuality that Clamp would weep. Between fighting spirits, meeting the other partners, and unraveling the secrets of the catacomb, they just might have time to hunt for the missing half of Hayato‘s soul. Though whether the remaining half of his soul will survive the journey is hard to say.
All Hayato Sakura wanted for his seventeenth birthday was all he could eat meat, what he got was a meeting with destiny. A simple guy with simple desires, all he’s asking for is a carefree high school life. He likes hanging out with friends, dislikes schoolwork and thinks girls are kind of cute. He was off to an average start, but with a soul as tasty as his, the spirits can’t seem keep their hands off him. Everything considered he‘s pretty good at rolling with the punches. Quick to react and just as swift to say what he’s thinking, he’s constantly putting his foot in his mouth and sputtering to save the conversation and the day. Way too gullible, super short and shota-faced, with a love of cute things not appropriate for a boy his age, he‘s not exactly what you‘d expect an up and coming undertaker to be like, but that‘s what he‘s become. However, with his strong moral compass and his desire to act for what’s right, he just might be able to do this.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
Sure thing! My name is Hayato Sakura and I’m seventeen years old. My interests include hanging out with my friends and relaxing after school. I’m not really great at schoolwork, but don’t tell my brother I said that out loud. He’d never let me forget it. Err, what was this interview for again?
Why are you joining our happy community?
Oh, I’m not really here to stay! I’m just passing through. I guess you could say I’m here on a business trip. Actually, I’m looking for my partner, we’ve got a job to do here. So the sooner I find him the sooner we’ll be out of your hair. Sorry about the confusion! I don’t want to be rude and just leave in the middle of it, but I’m kind of wasting your time. But…I guess we could continue the interview if you want to.
Do you think you are good in a crisis? Why?
Not really. To be perfectly honest, I kind of panic a bit. I’m getting better though, I think! I’ve been getting a lot of practice thinking on my feet. And even though I’m not really happy about my situation, I guess some good things have come out of it.
Would you be able to dispose of the flesh of the undead? How?
WHAT KIND OF QUESTION IS THAT?! H-how did this interview escalate that quickly?! I’m not sure I feel comfortable answering this question. I’ve never had to deal with flesh before, only spirits! Zombies weren’t part of the deal! I didn’t agree to zombies! Only spirits, you hear me?!
If there was a good dog and a criminal both hanging from a cliff and you could only save one, which would you save and why?
Why can’t I save both? I have two hands! So I could definitely save the two of them. And whether or not the guy is a criminal, that doesn’t mean I think he should die! Besides, we don’t even know what he did or if he’s really “bad”! Save them both first and ask the questions later. A human life isn’t something you should be tossing away so easily!!!
What would you consider to be your “soul” animal and why? (this is for purely scientific purposes and will not have consequences during your stay at all. Trust us! :))
Yeah right, I don’t trust you at all. I guess a butterfly though? I mean, all souls look like butterflies. And I saw mine and it was a butterfly too. This question is kind of pointless if I already know, isn’t it?
Do you find these questions increasingly unnerving? Why/Why not?
Haah. What am I even suppose to say anymore? Of course they’re unnerving! You switch right from asking me about myself to details about how I would dispose of a body! Then you start asking me about souls! You’re giving me whiplash switching topics like that and to be honest your questions are really weird!
Do you need an adult?
W-wha-I AM AN ADULT! DON’T PATRONISE ME! Well, close enough to one anyways. No! That’s it, I’m going now! Interview over! I’m getting my partner and getting out of here, no thank you and goodbye! …Err….which way is out?
Character: Naoe Nagi
Series: Wei§ Kreuz
Character Age: 15
Canon: In the shadows of the city's underworld where politicians are corrupt and crime bosses are out of the police's grasp, there is a light. That light is Wei§, a team of four young men tasked with denying these dark beasts their tomorrows. Florists by day, ruthless assassins by night, each member has their own struggles and reasons for which they fight. When children are kidnapped, supposed health drinks turn people into mush and genetic experiments turn people into monsters, there is only one entity that connects them all: Eszett. This world-wide terrorist cult employs groups of ÒspeciallyÓ powered agents with the intent of systematically destroying governments and creating a new world order. One such group is Schwarz, a team of powerful psychics and fighters -- the proverbial darkness to the light that is Wei§.
Nagi is the youngest member of Schwarz, but don't let his age fool you into believing he isn't easily the most powerful of the group. Intelligent, quiet, and a little bit snarky and condescending, he is not the most sociable person. Having had a crappy childhood rife with abandonment and rejection due to people's fear of his psychokinesis left him with an intense hatred of humans and little desire to interact unless necessary. Nagi doesn't tend to get emotional out of necessity -- emotional outbursts can cause him to lose control of his powers. However, he is still an assassin and will kill without the slightest hesitation if given the order.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
My name is Naoe Nagi. I am fifteen years old, and a member of Schwarz. My abilities and skills fall under the category of psychokinesis, gathering intel, and mission planning. Ms. Sayre should have already received a full background check and report on the matter.
Why are you joining our happy community?
The new leaders at Eszett's headquarters passed a regulation that requires all agents under the age of eighteen to attend six to eight months of additional training at their CFUD facility. Shouldn't you know this already? They released that information weeks ago.
Do you have any deep personal traumas you might inexplicably be compelled to share in this questionnaire? Please describe.
If you had read my file, you would know the details of my history before Eszett picked me up and provided me with the necessary training to become a field agent. I wasn't overly fond of being manhandled by your soccer-playing gorillas on the way here, either.
Have you committed any crimes you were or should have been convicted from?
Haven't we all? Most of us do not just fall into a job like this. This whole organization is founded on crimes against humanity. You wouldn't be able to find a single person in its employ that shouldn't be facing a death sentence.
Can you perform a flawless headshot? If not, and if your life depended on it, how many hours a week would you be willing to spend on the shooting range?
Did you honestly forget who you work for? The ability to handle a gun is part of our basic training. My particular power allows me the advantage of being able to hit any target from any distance within sight. I assume this question is meant for those new to the organization.
Would you be able to dispose of the flesh of the undead? How?
With ease. The usual procedure involves cremation or complete obliteration. CFUD's method of putting it in the food supply seems to be equally effective, but either way our livelihoods rely on being able to make a person . . . or a gorilla, disappear without a trace.
Character: Nai
Series: Karneval
Character Age: None given, but he looks to be around 12 years old or so.
Canon: Karneval is a story about Circus, a government defense organization, and its members. Gifted with special abilities, they are removed from society and must follow the orders they’re given. Their biggest role in the series is to track down those that have dabbled in illegal genetic research and capture or kill the products that have resulted from it. After these missions, they then generally do what their name implies: set up a circus to entertain people and ease their fears.
Nai is not an official member of Circus, but was picked up by them a little while back and now lives on one of their ships. Some would definitely call him naive due to having lived an odd and very sheltered life that has left him with literally no experience out in the real world. Extremely innocent and kind, Nai has a strong sense of inner strength despite his rather simplistic outlook. He’s easily excitable - tending to speak in short bursts - loves to have fun, and is really quite adorable. While he may seem a little clueless and acts pretty childlike, he has excellent instincts and is quick to take direction. Nai loves his comrades dearly, and won’t hesitate to step in, or to try and help out when one of them is in trouble.
Note: The ship is maintained by robotic creatures like sheep and rabbits.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
U-um! Hello. I’m Nai! I live on a flying ship with my friends. I’m really excited to meet everyone, and I’ve never been to a camp before. So, I’m sorry if I make any mistakes. I’ll try to do my best here, though!
Why are you joining our happy community?
The others said it would be nice to be around more kids my age for a change even though we’re not exactly sure what age that is. That’s okay, isn’t it? But! I hope we get to have lots of fun and play all sorts of games. Like hide and seek! I’m really good at that. I play it a lot with the sheep and everyone else.
What do you expect from your camp experience?
I would like it if it were a nice one. I want to be able to tell my friends good stories about the things I do here. And maybe I can learn something new! I’ve studied a little since I started living on the ship, but there’s a lot that I still don’t understand. Even the sheep are better at things like math than me! Isn’t that amazing? I’ve got a long way to go before I know as much as the rest of the people I live with, and I want to get stronger.
Do you have a five year plan in mind?
Um. Well. I’m looking for a very important person that’s been missing. And once I find him, we’re going to live on the ship together with the others because I want to stay with them forever and ever. That’s like five years, right?
If you could choose to bring three objects to a desert island, what would you bring and why?
There’s a dessert island here? That sounds so yummy! Do you think there could be things like cake flowers? What about ice cream trees? I would have to bring a spoon for that. But then I’m not sure how I’d eat the cake. Maybe a fork would be better. —I could bring both! Oh, but then that’s two things, and what if the others wanted to come along and eat some, too. This is really hard.
—Eh? It’s an island with sand? That doesn’t sound like it would taste very good. Why would anyone want to go there?
Character: Gareki
Series: Karneval
Character Age: 15
Canon: Who doesn't love the Circus? The lights, the costumes, the delicious treats, the chance to defend your country from mutant cannibals— wait, what? Welcome to Karneval, where your friendly traveling showmen are also government agents charged with tracking down the members of a mysterious group of mad scientists known as Kafka. Gareki isn't a member of Circus yet, but he'd like to be. After years of living as a thief, a chance encounter with a boy named Nai set his destiny on a very different path. Now he’s learning about government secrets, the horrors of Kafka, and not so coincidentally the power of teamwork.
Although initially standoffish, quick to anger, and only willing to look out for himself, Gareki eventually begins to accept Circus' Second Ship as his home. He wishes for the strength to defend his newfound friends, even going so far as to enroll in the Circus Course at a government school. Truthfully, Gareki was never as angry or self-interested as he seemed. All the money he stole was going straight to his terminally ill grandfather-figure, while easily half of his blowups are more embarrassment than rage. He's just kind of a textbook tsundere that way. While he will always have a short fuse, he is trying to learn humility and a better attitude. He just can’t always keep from getting a little snappy.
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
My name is Gareki. Kuronomei Academy sent me here for your supplemental training program, whatever that means. Anyway, I'm studying to be a part of Circus and I want to complete the course and get my license as quickly as I can.
Why are you joining our happy community?
Look, you might not mean anything by it, but could you not put it that way? This is a training camp. I'm not here to be part of anybody's circle of friends. Like I said, I want to get out of the program and back to my— nevermind. I want to get back on board a Circus ship as soon as I can. If I had to pick a community to be part of, it would be theirs. Okay? I'm here to learn what I can and then leave again. Don't get attached to me or anything.
Can you perform a flawless headshot? If not, and if your life depended on it, how many hours a week would you be willing to spend on the shooting range?
... up until recently, I would have said yes without thinking about it. Being confident in your skills can help keep you alive, you know. I guess you could even call it a defense mechanism. Honestly? I would say I'm pretty good at shooting, and I can make lots of other explosives too. But right now I'm here to learn, so I'm not going to be arrogant about anything, even the skills I think I've already mastered. Not until I've earned the right to be, anyway. If you want to test me with a gun, that's fine. I think I'll do all right, but I might not be perfect.
I'm going to be trained with stronger weapons than that though, aren’t I? Guns had better be just the beginning. I know from experience that they aren't a whole lot of help out there in the real world.
Have you committed any crimes you were or should have been convicted from?
I've done things I'm not proud of, but only because I had to. I’m not going to feel guilty about it. Unless you can tell me that everything the government does is totally legal, I don't think it's any of your business anyway. Results are more important, right?
What would you consider to be your "soul" animal and why? (this is for purely scientific purposes and will not have consequences during your stay at all. Trust us! :))
W-What? Why the hell would it? I'm not an animal! And what's with the smiley face, why are you getting all cute at me? How come nobody I know can just be professional? It's not funny, it's annoying. Next question.
Aww, what’s wrong with being cute? Camp is full of adorable things! Like sleepovers and tea parties and dances :)))) You’ll enjoy that, won’t you?
This is a joke, right? No! Is this even a training camp?! That’s it, no more answers from me. I’m done here.
Character: Aomine Daiki
Series: Kuroko’s Basketball
Character Age: 16
Canon: Once upon a time there was an invisible boy (or close enough to) who loved basketball despite sucking at it. I mean really, really sucking – he couldn’t score and let’s not talk about his lack of stamina. Luckily for him, being invisible turned out to be a viable skill when properly applied to passing, so he got to be the phantom sixth player of Teikou’s famed Generation of Miracles – a bunch of overpowered basketball players who ruined middle school basketball for everyone else (invisible boy included) because they won everything and that turned them all into varying degrees of asshole. Kuroko’s Basketball begins with the titular Kuroko vowing to defeat all of his old teammates – who’ve scattered to separate high schools – and make them acknowledge his style of basketball with the help of Seirin’s basketball club and his new partner Kagami Taiga.
Of the all the ridiculously powerful Generation of Miracles, Aomine Daiki was the ace and the guy who was once the most passionate of all about basketball. Aomine lives and breathes basketball. He’s the best - no one can stop him when it comes to basketball and he knows it - and hates it. The Generation of Miracles was so good that all their opponents gave up against them, and it changed Aomine from someone encouraging and friendly into a guy who skips practice because if he gets any better, basketball will just become more boring. What’s the point when there’s no challenge left? Aomine becomes lazy, rude, and jaded when he once was so enthusiastic about the sport. Instead of training, he lies around sleeping and “reading” the latest gravure magazine of his favorite idol, and if his teammates take offense to that? Well, they’re welcome to try and change it, but none of them are strong enough to make him do anything he dislikes. Not even the team’s manager, his childhood friend Momoi Satsuki, is able to get Aomine to show up to games on time. Aomine has an ego the size of a planet – and it’s deserved, because not even his teammates from the Generation of Miracles can beat him.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
What, you don’t know already? Fine, if I’ve gotta. I’m Aomine Daiki. I play basketball for Touou High.
…what, you want more than that? Tch, this is annoying. There’s no one who can beat me, so it’s not like anything else matters, got it?
Why are you joining our happy community?
Happy community? What bullshit is that? I’m not here because I want to be. My jerk of a captain and Satsuki don’t know when to keep their noses out of other people’s business. “It’ll be good for you, Dai-chan,” and “Touou’s ace should be the one to represent us at such a prestigious training camp” my ass. They’re both meddling idiots. It’s not like playing against a bunch of losers is gonna help me get better or anything. At least Satsuki didn’t find all of my porn mags.
What do you expect from your camp experience?
Nothing. It’s not like I’d expect to find something impossible here, like a player that’s better than me. This whole thing’s gonna be a complete waste of time. If nothing else, maybe I can catch up on my sleep.
Do you consider yourself squeamish? Please provide an example.
Haa? I’m not a girl who throws a fit over some stupid little earthworm, so I guess that means I’m not. I don’t get bothered by blood or anything. Shit happens in a game and you’ve gotta just keep playing through it.
Would you be able to dispose of the flesh of the undead? How?
What the fuck kind of question is that? The flesh of the undead? What’s that gotta do with basketball? We’re not in some stupid movie, so why are you asking me something like that?
Do you have any deep personal traumas you might inexplicably be compelled to share in this questionnaire? Please describe.
Why the hell would I tell a bunch of complete strangers about any “deep personal traumas?” It’s not like I have any, but seriously, you’ve gotta be joking if you think I’m gonna get all touchy feely.
If you could choose to bring three objects to a desert island, what would you bring and why?
Well, I guess this question’s kind of normal. If I answer it, will you leave me alone any faster? Yeah? Fine, then. I’d bring a basketball, a good gravure magazine, and my Air Jordans in case Mom tried to clean out my closet while I was gone. She just doesn’t get how important a guy’s basketball shoe collection is. You’d think she could understand since she’s a girl and it’s shoes and all.
If you could get away with committing one crime and suffer absolutely no consequences, what would you do and why?
I’d go to America - fine, whatever, not middle of nowhere wherever we are - and punch Kobe Bryant in the face for being such a gigantic jerkoff.
What would you consider to be your “soul” animal and why? (this is for purely scientific purposes and will not have consequences during your stay at all. Trust us! :))
The smiley face doesn’t make these questions any less sketchy, just so you know. And there’s no way I’m gonna answer something like that, so I’m out of here. If you don’t like it, try and stop me.

I’ve studied a little since I started living on the ship, but there’s a lot that I still don’t understand. Even the sheep are better at things like math than me! Isn’t that amazing? I’ve got a long way to go before I know as much as the rest of the people I live with, and I want to get stronger.
Do you have a five year plan in mind?
Um. Well. I’m looking for a very important person that’s been missing. And once I find him, we’re going to live on the ship together with the others because I want to stay with them forever and ever. That’s like five years, right?
If you could choose to bring three objects to a desert island, what would you bring and why?
There’s a dessert island here? That sounds so yummy! Do you think there could be things like cake flowers? What about ice cream trees? I would have to bring a spoon for that. But then I’m not sure how I’d eat the cake. Maybe a fork would be better. —I could bring both! Oh, but then that’s two things, and what if the others wanted to come along and eat some, too. This is really hard.
—Eh? It’s an island with sand? That doesn’t sound like it would taste very good. Why would anyone want to go there?

Character: Gareki
Series: Karneval
Character Age: 15
Canon: Who doesn't love the Circus? The lights, the costumes, the delicious treats, the chance to defend your country from mutant cannibals— wait, what? Welcome to Karneval, where your friendly traveling showmen are also government agents charged with tracking down the members of a mysterious group of mad scientists known as Kafka. Gareki isn't a member of Circus yet, but he'd like to be. After years of living as a thief, a chance encounter with a boy named Nai set his destiny on a very different path. Now he’s learning about government secrets, the horrors of Kafka, and not so coincidentally the power of teamwork.
Although initially standoffish, quick to anger, and only willing to look out for himself, Gareki eventually begins to accept Circus' Second Ship as his home. He wishes for the strength to defend his newfound friends, even going so far as to enroll in the Circus Course at a government school. Truthfully, Gareki was never as angry or self-interested as he seemed. All the money he stole was going straight to his terminally ill grandfather-figure, while easily half of his blowups are more embarrassment than rage. He's just kind of a textbook tsundere that way. While he will always have a short fuse, he is trying to learn humility and a better attitude. He just can’t always keep from getting a little snappy.
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
My name is Gareki. Kuronomei Academy sent me here for your supplemental training program, whatever that means. Anyway, I'm studying to be a part of Circus and I want to complete the course and get my license as quickly as I can.
Why are you joining our happy community?
Look, you might not mean anything by it, but could you not put it that way? This is a training camp. I'm not here to be part of anybody's circle of friends. Like I said, I want to get out of the program and back to my— nevermind. I want to get back on board a Circus ship as soon as I can. If I had to pick a community to be part of, it would be theirs. Okay? I'm here to learn what I can and then leave again. Don't get attached to me or anything.
Can you perform a flawless headshot? If not, and if your life depended on it, how many hours a week would you be willing to spend on the shooting range?
... up until recently, I would have said yes without thinking about it. Being confident in your skills can help keep you alive, you know. I guess you could even call it a defense mechanism. Honestly? I would say I'm pretty good at shooting, and I can make lots of other explosives too. But right now I'm here to learn, so I'm not going to be arrogant about anything, even the skills I think I've already mastered. Not until I've earned the right to be, anyway. If you want to test me with a gun, that's fine. I think I'll do all right, but I might not be perfect.
I'm going to be trained with stronger weapons than that though, aren’t I? Guns had better be just the beginning. I know from experience that they aren't a whole lot of help out there in the real world.
Have you committed any crimes you were or should have been convicted from?
I've done things I'm not proud of, but only because I had to. I’m not going to feel guilty about it. Unless you can tell me that everything the government does is totally legal, I don't think it's any of your business anyway. Results are more important, right?
What would you consider to be your "soul" animal and why? (this is for purely scientific purposes and will not have consequences during your stay at all. Trust us! :))
W-What? Why the hell would it? I'm not an animal! And what's with the smiley face, why are you getting all cute at me? How come nobody I know can just be professional? It's not funny, it's annoying. Next question.
Aww, what’s wrong with being cute? Camp is full of adorable things! Like sleepovers and tea parties and dances :)))) You’ll enjoy that, won’t you?
This is a joke, right? No! Is this even a training camp?! That’s it, no more answers from me. I’m done here.

Character: Aomine Daiki
Series: Kuroko’s Basketball
Character Age: 16
Canon: Once upon a time there was an invisible boy (or close enough to) who loved basketball despite sucking at it. I mean really, really sucking – he couldn’t score and let’s not talk about his lack of stamina. Luckily for him, being invisible turned out to be a viable skill when properly applied to passing, so he got to be the phantom sixth player of Teikou’s famed Generation of Miracles – a bunch of overpowered basketball players who ruined middle school basketball for everyone else (invisible boy included) because they won everything and that turned them all into varying degrees of asshole. Kuroko’s Basketball begins with the titular Kuroko vowing to defeat all of his old teammates – who’ve scattered to separate high schools – and make them acknowledge his style of basketball with the help of Seirin’s basketball club and his new partner Kagami Taiga.
Of the all the ridiculously powerful Generation of Miracles, Aomine Daiki was the ace and the guy who was once the most passionate of all about basketball. Aomine lives and breathes basketball. He’s the best - no one can stop him when it comes to basketball and he knows it - and hates it. The Generation of Miracles was so good that all their opponents gave up against them, and it changed Aomine from someone encouraging and friendly into a guy who skips practice because if he gets any better, basketball will just become more boring. What’s the point when there’s no challenge left? Aomine becomes lazy, rude, and jaded when he once was so enthusiastic about the sport. Instead of training, he lies around sleeping and “reading” the latest gravure magazine of his favorite idol, and if his teammates take offense to that? Well, they’re welcome to try and change it, but none of them are strong enough to make him do anything he dislikes. Not even the team’s manager, his childhood friend Momoi Satsuki, is able to get Aomine to show up to games on time. Aomine has an ego the size of a planet – and it’s deserved, because not even his teammates from the Generation of Miracles can beat him.
Sample Entry:
Tell us about yourself in a few words.
What, you don’t know already? Fine, if I’ve gotta. I’m Aomine Daiki. I play basketball for Touou High.
…what, you want more than that? Tch, this is annoying. There’s no one who can beat me, so it’s not like anything else matters, got it?
Why are you joining our happy community?
Happy community? What bullshit is that? I’m not here because I want to be. My jerk of a captain and Satsuki don’t know when to keep their noses out of other people’s business. “It’ll be good for you, Dai-chan,” and “Touou’s ace should be the one to represent us at such a prestigious training camp” my ass. They’re both meddling idiots. It’s not like playing against a bunch of losers is gonna help me get better or anything. At least Satsuki didn’t find all of my porn mags.
What do you expect from your camp experience?
Nothing. It’s not like I’d expect to find something impossible here, like a player that’s better than me. This whole thing’s gonna be a complete waste of time. If nothing else, maybe I can catch up on my sleep.
Do you consider yourself squeamish? Please provide an example.
Haa? I’m not a girl who throws a fit over some stupid little earthworm, so I guess that means I’m not. I don’t get bothered by blood or anything. Shit happens in a game and you’ve gotta just keep playing through it.
Would you be able to dispose of the flesh of the undead? How?
What the fuck kind of question is that? The flesh of the undead? What’s that gotta do with basketball? We’re not in some stupid movie, so why are you asking me something like that?
Do you have any deep personal traumas you might inexplicably be compelled to share in this questionnaire? Please describe.
Why the hell would I tell a bunch of complete strangers about any “deep personal traumas?” It’s not like I have any, but seriously, you’ve gotta be joking if you think I’m gonna get all touchy feely.
If you could choose to bring three objects to a desert island, what would you bring and why?
Well, I guess this question’s kind of normal. If I answer it, will you leave me alone any faster? Yeah? Fine, then. I’d bring a basketball, a good gravure magazine, and my Air Jordans in case Mom tried to clean out my closet while I was gone. She just doesn’t get how important a guy’s basketball shoe collection is. You’d think she could understand since she’s a girl and it’s shoes and all.
If you could get away with committing one crime and suffer absolutely no consequences, what would you do and why?
I’d go to America - fine, whatever, not middle of nowhere wherever we are - and punch Kobe Bryant in the face for being such a gigantic jerkoff.
What would you consider to be your “soul” animal and why? (this is for purely scientific purposes and will not have consequences during your stay at all. Trust us! :))
The smiley face doesn’t make these questions any less sketchy, just so you know. And there’s no way I’m gonna answer something like that, so I’m out of here. If you don’t like it, try and stop me.

Aomine, your app had a similar problem! A lot of what you put was unnecessary, since it explained what happened to him rather than who he is, but I'm canon familiar and your voice is really really strong so while I would have normally abstained I decided to give an IN regardless of that.
GOOD JOB EVERYONE
