[/size][/font]so so this is the interview application application. explain your character through a series of conventional and unconventional questions.
[/color]BASICS
what is your full name? nicknames? age? birthday?:
“my full name is delaney dakota foster. it’s sort of an odd name, i know, but i guess it sort of suits me for that reason, you know? it’s pretty. i like it. nicknames, well, people call me laney quite a bit, or sometimes del. or just my full first name, delaney. on occasion i’ve been called foster, too. currently i’m twenty years old.”
are you a brookwell high school student or a university student? oh, oops, are you a local or a teacher? if you are a teacher or a local, what is your job?:
“i’m a tourist here, i guess you could say. it’s sort of between that and a local. i don’t live here usually, though; i’m just here for the year, since my dad sent me here to live with my aunt and all... i recently took up a part-time job working at this vintage clothing store not too far from where she lives; it’s pretty cool.”
how boring. let's get into the juice stuff, are you taken? married? in love? or are you single and free? and are you happy with your relationship status?:
“right now, well, i’m.. single... i was in a relationship with a boy back home for two years, but things started falling apart and we broke up pretty recently, a month or so before i was sent out here to new york. i miss him, but i was the one that fucked up. he deserves better; i guess it’s for the best.”
where were you born? are you an american citizen or do you have citizenship in other countries as well? and what is your background, like your family background?:
“i was born back out in my home state of minnesota; we’re from bloomington. yes, the city where the mall of america is found. i know. all my family came from around there. i think the most exciting place any of my family lives is green bay, wisconsin, which pretty much kills any ounce of excitement that might have been added to our lives. we’re blah people.”
whats a typical day like for you? like, take us through your morning routine? do you even eat breakfast, you know it's the most important meal of the day, right?
“it’s nothing much, now. i get up, i shower, i eat a granola bar or something. i go to work. if i don’t work, i explore new york city and mope about my life and how much i fucked up now. i crave a cigarette. i don’t get one. i go home. fin.”[/blockquote][/blockquote][/color]
[/color]POINT OF VIEW
what is your opinion on love?:
“love is.. love is touchy. i believe in it, of course. i just know that it often takes some time for one to find true love. as for me, i haven’t found it yet, and it’ll probably take a while. in all honesty i’m sort of a hopeless romantic..”
what is your opinion on family?:
“family is another one that’s really touchy. it can be great, it can be awesome, but i’ve made too many mistakes for that to be with me. my parents are divorced and i lived with my dad for the second half of my life, and we never see my mom anymore. and for the most part my dad’s been good, but i fucked up too many times and i think i’ve ruined that now, too.”
what is your opinion on soul mates?:
“there’s someone out there for everybody.”
what is your opinion on violence?:
“violence has led to too many problems in the past for me. it’s there, though; you can’t escape it, no matter how hard you try.”
what is your opinion on truth; does it even exist?:
“of course truth exists. just because something isn’t seen or shown a lot doesn’t mean that it’s not there.”
LOVE LIFE
what was your last relationship?:
“i was dating this kid, eric, for a good two years. i dunno, i guess we were getting on pretty well... i was pretty much in love, but it’s not like i would have married him or anything. neither of us were the marrying type. doesn’t matter, though, because we split up before i moved out here. i don’t blame him. i wouldn’t have wanted to be with a druggie like me anyway.”
who was the last person in your bed?:
“fucked if i know...”
who was your first kiss?:
“my first kiss? hah, this one kid, shit, what was his name? aaron, i think. i don’t know, i haven’t seen him in years... i was twelve, and i heard from a friend he had this major crush on me... i was feeling adventurous, and we figured we’d be cool if we kissed, so we did. nothing followed. hell, we were only twelve.”
who was your first love?:
“my first love... it was just a high school romance. we met in middle school and fought a lot. high school changed that, though, and we started seeing each other. by my sophomore year, i was in love. he moved away, though, by the end of that year... and that was what started everything. i wouldn’t have gotten into everything i did if brayden hadn’t moved away. i wouldn’t have started drinking, i wouldn’t have started partying, and mainly i wouldn’t have started doing drugs. but i missed him, i missed him so much... i needed a way to deal with that and with all the shit going on in the rest of my life, and the drugs were there, the alcohol was there... bad decision.”
what's your biggest turn on? turn off?
“oh, god, a boy who can play guitar, a boy who can sing... that just gets me. any guy that’s the musical type. my biggest turn off? assholes. those kinds of guys who judge you, the kind that take all your mistakes into account and don’t let you forget them.”
what exactly is your "type"? what do you look for in the opposite..or the same sex? are you heterosexual or homosexual?
“didn’t i sort of answer this in your last question? well, really, my turn off is just the main thing i want to make sure isn’t there. i couldn’t stand a guy who would bring up my past, who would let me remember all those horrible things i did wrong. i’m heterosexual, clearly.”[/color]
FAMILY
[/color]
how close are you to your family?:
“i’m not... never really was. i mean, my dad was pretty chill and all, but not so much anymore. he sent me out here to new york, and i don’t know if he even wants to talk to me anymore.”
who are you closest to in your family?:
“it always used to be my dad, but after this move, i guess it’s going to be my aunt, soon. she always wants me to stay back at her apartment and spend time with her, and hell, half the time she wins. she’s nice, i guess; we’re going to be spending quite a bit of time with each other over the next year.”
who can't you stand in your family? it's okay, we won't tell anyone:
“my little brother, anthony. it’s his fault that i’m out here now. i mean, nothing against new york, and nothing against my aunt, but he went and ratted on me to my dad, and now i had to leave home. yeah, i’m not a fan of him.”
what is your relationship like with your mother? father?:
“well, considering that i haven’t seen my mom since i was six and my father sent me away to new york...”
how old were your parents when they met? how old was your mother when she had you?[/color]
“hell, i don’t know. i think they were fresh out of high school; my dad’s still pretty young, and he has two full-grown kids. and i have no answer to your second question. i haven’t seen my mom since i was six and i don’t care enough to bother to contact her.”
THIS OR THAT[/color]
fight or flight?:
“fight. hands down.”
milk or soda?:
“soda.”
cat or dog?:

[/color]

“birmingham. by the almost.”

“phantom of the opera. no shame.”
person that you said i love you to:
“my dad, before i left.
...he couldn’t even look me in the eye.”
illegal thing that you did:
“there’s too many to even bring into account. i did cocaine, i drank, i stole from department stores... i was horrible.”
illegal thing that you did:
“please don’t make me talk about this again.”
significant change in your life:
“when my younger brother went and told my dad everything that i was doing, all the horrible shit i was getting into. if he hadn’t, i’d still be at it.. but i’d also still be back home.”
SELF
tell us something that you want to change about yourself?
“to be honest.. my past. i wish i could go back and change the past few years in particular, but they haven’t invented time machines just yet. but seriously, man, if i hadn’t taken that first hit of cocaine, if i hadn’t started drinking and stealing and hell, everything... my entire life would be different now. i wouldn’t be stuck out here. i could still be back home. i could have kept my boyfriend. everything would have been different, and everything would have been better. oh, and it’d be great if i could change my knees, too; my legs are actually naturally really weak, and i just wish sometimes that i could have legs like everyone else, and not have to worry about my knees giving out.”
everyone has a big achievement, what's yours? what's your biggest regret?
“at twenty years old, living with my aunt and holding a part-time job, an ex-cocaine addict... i honestly don’t think i have an achievement to my name. my biggest regret is taking that first hit, hands down.”
did you see yourself having this kind of life five years ago? where do you think you will be in five or even ten years from now?
“five years ago, i didn’t see myself anywhere. i didn’t have a future. maybe i actually have a chance now... in ten years, i don’t know, maybe i’ll actually be doing something with my life. that would be an interesting twist on events, i think. no promises, though. in all honestly, i’m sort of a free spirit. wherever life takes me is wherever i’ll be.”
anything else that you feel we should know about you? any dirty little secrets?
“i have a webbed toe, bitch.”[/color]
