Character Applying For? Sohma Hatori
Why would you like to play this character?I like Hatori's character quite a lot. Strong and silent. It leaves a lot of room to make him appear incredibly cool even if he doesn't say anything at all. Plus, he's one of the Mabudachi Trio (whether willingly or not xD). Another thing that makes me want to play Hatori is his past with Kana, something I find incredibly bittersweet.
Why should we pick you, instead of another applicant?I can't say I've roleplayed with this character before, but I have a lot of writing experience, and I have managed to portray Hatori really well in the Furuba fanfics I write.
How would you portray this character if you were given the opportunity to do so? [Such as mannerisms, personality, etc]Well, Hatori is always serious and straight to the point; I would portray this character as someone who didn't have time for jokes, who would be completely blunt and yet at the same time, amazingly sarcastic. I will also give Hatori moments where he acts very kindly, because despite everything, he still cares quite a lot about everyone around him. But most of all, I want to portray him as the "mother" figure to Ayame, and the "tormenter" figure to Shigure. xD
What roleplaying experience do you have, if any? If you don't, what do you think makes a good roleplayer?I have roleplayed before on Harry Potter forums. My applications have always been accepted, and I don't recall ever having to return and modify something in it. I usually played as Ron Weasley -- he is so underappreciated, that guy. =[
How far have you read the manga? I read almost all the manga volumes. I say almost because I have occasionally skipped a chapter. xD
How much of the anime have you seen, if any? I've watched each episode at least three times. =x
What spoilers have you seen/read, if any? I've read almost all the spoilers.
How often would you be able to roleplay, on a general basis? Probably every day, unless I have a tight deadline or my internet dies. >_>
Please post your roleplay sample here, making sure your character is in the personality / mind set of the timeline [shortly after volume six], as well as their current appearance. If you have read past this, you are free to include information that has not yet been revealed, but keep it to internal musings. Your roleplay sample must be at least two standard paragraphs [though longer is better], follow the forum rules, and ProBoards ToS.Hatori's hair was getting longer again.
It made him impatient. He would have to push it aside every few minutes to stop it from obscuring his vision; it just didn't seem to want to stay put. Of course, it didn't help that his field of vision was restricted to his right eye. It didn't help that his left eye was as good as blind. All because of... all because of...
No, he couldn't. He could blame him. He could never blame him. It was his own fault. He was the reason his left eye had gotten hurt. There was no-one to blame but him. It wasn't Akito's fault. It wasn't Kana's fault.
Kana.
It was as if someone had suddenly clicked the "Play" button in his head, because flashes of his time with Kana had started playing before his eyes. Like reels of film. He watched their first encounter. He watched Kana's actions and heard her words. Those words that had slowly started to melt the ice encasing his heart. Their two months of happiness passed by in a blur, they were too quick for him to grasp. Their memories were slowly starting to become more and more like a blissful dream.
Then came the nightmare. As if on cue, Hatori felt a sharp pain in his left eye, and he involuntarily raised his hand to it. He almost felt the blood seeping between his fingers, he almost heard Akito screaming. And Kana?
Kana was broken. She wouldn't stop crying, and every time she cried his heart broke even more. And yet, despite his injury, despite Kana's sadness, he couldn't blame anybody but himself.
And then, as quickly as the film started, it ended, and Hatori was thrown back into his office as a knock came at his door.
"Yes?"
"Sohma-san, there's someone here to see you."
"I'll be out in a minute."
Sighing wearily, he pushed himself away from his desk and got up to his feet. He massaged his temples in an attempt to clear his head before walking over to the door. He stopped at a mirror that was hanging on the wall and quickly surveyed his appearance.
"I look like Shigure," he said in distaste.
A haircut was in order.
Hatori x Kana
