"H-hallo. I-I know my…surname may seem familiar. That is because my oudere broer goes here. B-but that wasn’t the question. I um….really don’t go by much nicknames. I guess I do….sometimes….go by Eli? Maar het is niet vaak. "
[[oudere broer – older brother
Maar het is niet vaak – But it is not often ]]
WE CAN’T TELL BY LOOKING AT YOU… ARE YOU MALE, FEMALE, OR SOMETHING IN-BETWEEN IT ALL?
"F-female! //blushes lightly//"
OH, REALLY? HM. YOU SHOULD WORK ON LOOKING IT… ANYWAY, WHEN WERE YOU BORN?
"I am 21 and was born on April 19th which makes me an Aries."
WELL, YOU LOOK PRETTY FINE FOR YOUR AGE… BUT TSK. THIS OLD AND CAN’T CONTROL IT? NO WONDER YOU’RE HERE.
"I-I….don’t be rude now. A-and…I’m not that old. //blushes lightly//"
SO, WE THOUGHT THAT BRAD PITT WAS HOT AS ALDO RAINE, BUT WHAT ABOUT YOU? …WE’RE THE DEANS, NOT YOU, DON’T GIVE US THAT LOOK.
"U-ummm, well, they certainly are both handsome. I cannot really say one is more so than the other. But why are we showing me these pictures? What does it matter?"
UHUH. WELL. THAT WAS INTERESTING. NOW, WHAT DO YOU ENJOY DOING?
"I love tulips. Oh, but I guess that’s just something I enjoy. In that case, I do love planting and caring for tulips. They are such beautiful flowers. I also enjoy making delicious chocolade and wafels. I make the best after all. Hmmm, I do very much enjoy taking walks through gardens or really just anywhere that’s nice and I like it when my broer is nice to me and not so….short-tempered."
[[chocolade – chocolate
wafels – waffles ]]
NOW, WHAT ABOUT THINKS YOU DON’T LIKE? WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IN ORDER TO EMBETTER YOUR SITUATION AND LIVING ARRANGEMENTS. LIKE MINDS WITH LIKE MINDS AND ALL…
"Oooh, it really makes me angry when Lars pushes me around and is not the nicest to me sometimes. I am their zus after all, we’re family. You’d think that you’d be nicer to your zus. I also really dislike poorly crafted chocolade and wafels. I mean, that in itself is an art and the process of those so decadent must be taken seriously. Now what I dislike in people. Well, I just hate rude, mean, sexist jerks. That is easy enough, nee?"
[[zus –sister
nee – no]]
DULLY NOTED. WE’LL REMEMBER THAT AS WE PLACE YOU IN CLASSES AND SUCH. NOW, DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIAL SKILLS OR SOMETHING YOU’RE ACTUALLY GOOD AT? CONTROLLING YOURSELF MUST NOT BE ONE TO BE HERE…
"Well, as I’m sure you have caught on by now, I make fantastic chocolade and wafels. I can make a variety of flavors with both and yes, I can make delicious chocolade wafels. I am also incredible at lace-making. You should really watch me some time. I’m so skilled and crafted in the art of lace-making that making lace is so quick and easy for me. All you’ll see are my fingers and hands moving at lightning speed. Hmmm, I guess other than that, I’m really great at gardening, folk dancing, and singing."
HUH. THAT’S CURIOUS – WE NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT WITH YOU. NOW, WHAT DO YOU SUCK AT? …IT’S A WORD, DEAL WITH IT.
"U-umm, I have been told that I don’t do a good job at standing up for myself which doesn’t make sense because I have also been told that I have a rather short-temper. Oh, that makes me sound bipolar! I am most definitely not bipolar or anything!
O-other things….I guess….I’m not really good at dealing with my broer. There are just some times that I just don’t get him and that…that tends to put a strain on our relationship as siblings… "
HM. FIGURES. WE SEE A LOT OF CASES LIKE THAT AND- HEY, LOOK, ICE CREAME!
"I like ice cream with wafels sometimes. Oh wait…were you asking something with this?"
WHOOPS, GUESS YOU MISSED THE TREAT. NOW, YOU MIGHT BE A LITTLE YOUNG YET, BUT GIVEN ANY THOUGHT ON WHAT YOU LIKE IN A PARTNER? DON’T BE SHY.
"What…do I like in a partner? U-ummm, well, obviously someone who is nice, handsome, has a good sense of humor and just sweet. Oh and someone who loves chocolade and wafels. Ok, they don’t have to love wafels, but they have got to love chocolade~"
HM, THAT SCRATCHES OUT MY DAUGHTER… WHAT ABOUT THINGS YOU HATE IN A PERSON? FOR… FUTURE REFERENCE.
"Your daughter?! A-are you telling everyone this?!
A-anyway, I don’t like sexist jerks. That is my number one pet-peeve….other than poorly made chocolade and wafels. I also just do not like people who are mean and inconsiderate. I can understand doing something or saying something mean by accident or out of frustration, but someone who does it just because it’s fun…now that’s just evil."
YOU’RE QUITE SHALLOW, AREN’T YOU? HM, NO MIRRORS ALLOWED IN YOUR ROOM…
"I…I am not shallow! When did I ever come off as shallow!? And why no mirrors!? You must know a girl has to make sure she looks good before she goes out and that does not mean I’m shallow!"
NO INTERVIEW WOULD BE COMPLETE WITHOUT SOME BASIC QUESTIONS, RIGHT? JUST ANSWER THEM AS TRUTHFULLY AS POSSIBLE, OKAY?
"I don’t know. After that last comment of yours I find myself very insulted."
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE FOOD AND DRINK?
"For my favorite drink, I do love beer. As for food…I really do love wafels, but I also love Vlaamse Karkonade (chunks of beek cooked with beer)."
[[this is a lady who know how to drink, bros~~]]
FAVOURITE PHRASE OR QUOTE?
" ‘When we lose ones we love, our bitterest tears are called forth by the memory of hours when we loved not enough.’ Maurice Maeterlinck, a Belgian symbolist poet."
FAVOURITE SUBJECT IN SCHOOL?
"Cooking class, Home Economics with the whole cooking, or whatever you call it here."
FAVORITE COLOUR?
"I do like orange. But I also love red, pink, yellow, purple. Basically, all the colors tulips can come in."
FAVORITE PLACE?
"Wherever there are tulips. Or wafels. Or chocolade. Or beer."
FAVORITE BOOK?
"Ooooh, too many favorites. I really can’t decide. Basically, I really love romance novels, but with twist and mystery. Keeps you on the edge, you know?"
FAVOURITE ARTICLE OF CLOTHING?
"Oooh, I just love dresses. But when it comes down to it, my favorite things to wear are headbands, just all kinds of headbands."
YOU HANDLED THE DRILL WELL… WE ARE IMPRESSED. NOW, TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF.
"Well first off, I am a very nice person. I’m compassionate, cheery and I do my best not to get put down by unfortunate events. I like to stay optimistic as much as possible because honestly, you miss a lot of the beauty of life if you start sulking too much.
Also, contrary to what others might think, I’m really not a pushover. Ok, so my broer….push me around a bit sometimes and aren’t always the nicest to me, but that is just siblings, nee? And because they are siblings, I have learned to simple forgive them for most things. However that doesn’t mean that if you do something mean and horrible to me or someone I love, I will easily forgive you. I can just as easily be mean and I know how to stand up for myself. I am a strong woman after all! Women Power!
No but honestly, don’t be frightened, if you’re nice to me, I’m nice to you. Makes sense, nee~?"
HOW ABOUT FAMILY? ARE YOU LEAVING ANYONE BEHIND?
"Well, my oudere broer, Lars goes here so I am only really leaving behind my parents. But I haven’t been living with them these past few years anyway. "
THAT’S INTERESTING… REMINDS US OF HOME. NOW, WHAT HAS BROUGHT YOU TO OUR ESTABLISHMENT, EXACTLY?
"W-well, we know that I am here to learn how to better control this…changing into an animal thing. I um…first learned about this…dilemma when I got a little bit too drunk with my girls one night and bumped into this really cute boy. But then poof! I changed into a hond and…oh my it was so embarrassing."
[[hond – dog]]
NOW, SO WE KNOW WHEN SCHEDULING YOU, DO YOU WORK ANYWHERE AT THE MOMENT? WHAT ABOUT LIVING? DO YOU HAVE AN APARTMENT OFF CAMPUS, OR SHALL WE PUT YOU IN A DORM?
"No, I do not have a job at the moment though I am searching for one. It is good to have a job, nee? And since I cannot afford a place of my own, I will be staying in the dorms here."
HM, ALRIGHT. LET’S SAY YOUR HOME IS BEING FLOODED. …PRETEND YOU LIVE ON THE COAST OR SOMETHING, OKAY? ANYWAY, WHAT THREE THIGNS WOULD YOU SAVE?
"Three things I would save? Well, if my broer or anyone else was in the house I would save them first. As for two other things I am not really sure….maybe all of my fine wafel iron pans and the supplies I use to make chocolade."
WE NEVER WOULD HAVE PICTURED YOU THE TYPE TO CARE. HOW ODD.
"How is that odd! I told you I am a nice and caring person!"
NOW, WE ALL KNOW WHAT REASON YOU’RE HERE… BUT WE DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU ARE. MIND TELLING US YOUR SPECIES?
"I am a Tervuren Belgian Shepard [<--click for picture]. At least I’m a really cute animal~~"
HM. WE HAVE FACILITIES THAT YOU MAY FIND USEFUL. I’M SURE YOU’VE READ THE HANDBOOK THOUGH, RIGHT? IF SO, PLEASE GIVE US THE THREE HIDDEN WORDS IN A SENTENCE OR TWO.
"I don’t mean to be forward…but I believe you have syrup on your charming shirt."
YOU’RE NOT AS MUCH OF A SLACKER AS WE THOUGHT. THAT’S GOOD. WE ARE IMPRESSED WITH YOU.
"I am no slacker, heel erg bedankt! Good that you understand that!"
[[heel erg bedankt – thank you very much]]
WELL, THAT JUST ABOUT WRAPS EVERYTHING UP… IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO TELL US?
"Ummm, not that I know of really. That’s just about it."
WE’LL TAKE OUR LEAVE NOW. PLEASE WAIT FOR VERIFICATION INTO THE SYSTEM.
"Dank u."
[[dank u – thank you]]

Sara has been endlessly trailing around on this planet for nineteen years, they appear to be stuck. Whoops. So they took up role playing to pass the time, and have been doing so for roughly 7 years. How interesting! They are located in the Pacific time-zone, for future globe-trotting reference! But I guess you can always reach them at x.gunner@hotmail.com/PM [or any of the other contact info I provide in the “Stalk Me” thread. ].
Well, let’s get this paper into the system! :
Today was a great day so far. Not that all the other days weren’t great. It was just that, today was a special one or at least it was going to become special.
Her older brother would be coming over to visit, the last time he had done so being in who knew how long. The two siblings weren’t on the best of terms the past few years and it was really hard on the younger sister who despite everything, still loved her brother just as dearly as the first time her infant eyes saw him.
So now here she was, doing her best to prepare a good meal for dinner that night, going into her backyard to tend to her tulips in order to ensure they were looking their best for her tulip sibling. Though, when entering the kitchen once again, Elise had taken note that maybe she went a little overboard.
Maybe she made too much waffles.
And maybe she made too much chocolate truffles and other delights.
And maybe she bought too much beer.
Well, honestly, there is never such a thing as too much beer (and with that, no such thing as too much waffles and chocolate; not in Belgium at least).
And with that, Elise continued to hum her way around the kitchen and around the house, making her place look good for her brother. And she waiting for him, hoping that his stubbornness didn’t cause him to be late.
