ꕥ "Brief" Intro ꕥ Behold, I am Iris, @IrisFlowerz, and this is my application for Trapperkit. I was invited to TSS about three or two weeks ago, just never got along with making a character cuz I thought it'd be too much hassle. But anyways, I saw this litter and decided I'd give it a try! I've gone through all of TSS's rules and stuff, and literally was in the process of making a character, but then of course it had to be interrupted. ugh. Anyways, I'm Iris, or you can call me Puff! I use the pronouns she/him/their, preeeetty sure I'm demifluid. Probably. Anyways ignore all that I'm here for Trapper not describing my life story agh- ꕥ Gender ꕥ When Trapperkit grows up to be Trapperpaw, she'll sort of feel like... she doesn't feel all that like a girl. maybe a little less of that and more of... Something else. But she doesn't know what that's called! So she inquires, and searches, and finally finds what she feels like: a-! oh. Wait. That wasn't it either. She tries going by they/them pronouns for a bit, but that just doesn't feel right either. Nothing does! They use he/him, as an apprentice, but nothing feels right. Nothing feels like Trapper to them, nothing feels right. Then they learn about what being agender is, and that... that feels just right. Now, as a warrior, they don't really know what pronouns to be addressed by. But they're agender, and for now, that's all that matters to them: that they've found their true self. (note: they will be most likely addressed with they/them pronouns) ꕥ S3xuality ꕥ Trapper is less of a mystery when it comes to what they like in others. Right off the bat, they understand, that even as a kitten, they like girls. And as Trapperkit, she's lesbian. But eventually, as their identity changes, their s3xuality will too, going from liking girls to... what? Maybe... everyone? What was that called again... Aha! Yes, that Pans3xual thing! Wait, don't call it a thing, it's what you are, Trapper... As for romantics, they'll also be Panromantic. Well, for actual thingies, they're Demis3xual, panromantic. They like all genders, however, in both s3xuality and romanticism. So like, demi pan. (insert grin here) They first realized they were demi when they only started getting crushes on cats after getting close to them, quite close in fact. It was just what they were like, you know? They only liked someone after they got close to them, and it didn't matter what gender, because everyone was so beautiful. Sure, they could get slight crushes on someone they'd barely or not met, but those fizzled out fast and rarely ever came back. (that's what I'm like, dw I got it and know what I'm doing with this :D) ꕥ Activity Level ꕥ My activity level is generally an 8-9/10, but that might change over the summer. It's a mystery how much my parents will let me be online during this time. I try to rp as much as possible with characters I like, so with Trapper, I love them, so definitely tons. ꕥ Personality ꕥ (+) Loyal, Dedicated, Joyful, Lenient, Enthusiastic (=) Ambitious, Cunning, Adventurous, Playful, Particular (-) Manipulative, Jealous Easily, Argumentative, Impulsive, Reckless Detailed - Trapperkit is quite the unique kitten. They have a changing personality that often switches and flips on you at the last possible moment, but more the most part, they are loyal. They love to be around their family and friends and wouldn't leave them for anything, but if a friend betrays them they'd be heartbroken but still try to get that friend back. This is part of their dedication, but also, they can't let go of something. If they have one goal in life, they are dedicated to that goal and won't leave it alone until it has been resolved. They are also quite joyful, only getting sad in the worst possible scenarios, and quite watchful, spying only the most elusive and quietest hints. They are also lenient- they try not to be strict, but oftentimes they are forced out of it. They are enthusiastic in everything they do and can't get out of a happy mood for quite a while. Trapperkit, on the flip side, is quite manipulative and many times will try to tell their siblings to do something for her and get nothing in return. They've been told that manipulative isn't good, and have attempted... slightly, to break out of it, but they continue on doing it sometimes. Most of the time, they just think it's right, but sometimes they can see what's happening and snap out of it. Beside this, they also get jealous if someone else hangs out with one of their friends quite often, and get stuck in a bit of a spiral trying to fix this without telling this friend. They don't want to upset their friend while being upset. Despite not wanting to confront, they are quite argumentative and relish a good argument. They would be a good debater. They are also quite impulsive, and act on what they think is right at the moment instead of thinking. (cont...)
(cont.) Heart over head. They are also very reckless and don't think much, even if they have the time to think about an action, and don't really want to think about it, anyways. They relish being carefree and will abolish anything in the way of that carelessness. On the more neutral side of it, Trapperkit is ambitious. They almost desperately want to be leader, or at the least, deputy one day, and will do everything in their power to do so. They are also quite cunning, despite not thinking much, and think that they, even on a whim, will be able to devise a plan to get what they want in about a second. It's never been tested, however. They are also adventurous, and will pass up almost everything to make some mischief and play around. They love trying new things, and are also quite playful. While they do like new things, they are also quite particular about those new things. They can't be too petty or pretty or shiny or cold or snide or colorful or not colorful, they have to be just right. Alignment: Chaotic Neutral ꕥ Theme Song ꕥ Trapperkit is hard to figure out. Like, what would their theme song be? I really think of The Room Where It Happens, that might not be the actual title, from Hamilton. because they really want to be there, to be up there, with the leader and deputy, and know exactly how it happens. They want to be in that room. Of course, if anyone thinks different, you can tell me- I don't listen to a lot of music nowadays. ꕥ Voice Claim ꕥ They most likely sound like me xD- I mean I kinda imagine them to sound like, the personality and gender I have picked out keep sending me flashback of me lol, so yeah! They have my voice! I have a couple projects with my voice in them, which are just gonna be on my profile. But here are some links: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/967478154/ https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/952444226/ https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/997450513/ ꕥ Research ꕥ ADHD Symptons of ADHD start in childhood and often last into adulthood. There are three different types of ADHD, predominately inattentive, predominately hyperactive-impulsive, and a combined presentation. As for Trapper, they have the predominately hyperactive-impulsive, though there have been times where they simply just can't pay attention. While most kits, at times, have trouble focusing or paying attention, with ADHD it lasts longer, all the way up into adulthood and maybe even beyond that. Their symptoms include forgetting and losing things a lot, squirming and fidgeting, talking too much, taking unnecessary risks and careless mistakes, has a hard time resisting temptation, and has trouble taking turns. Symptoms of ADHD change over time, and Trapperkit's most will as well. ADHD is caused by a brain injury, for example, not by eating too much sugar or watching tooi much TV was people seem to think. Also, how would a cat watch TV? Other causes could be: the mother being exposed to environmental risks or alc0h0l, prematureness, or low b!rth weight. At different ages, such as into adulthood, hyperactivity, as an example, could be represented as extreme restlessness. Symptoms are often differently represented. For Trapperkit's specific case of ADHD, predominately hyperactive, here is a bit more: They fidget and talk a lot, it is hard to sit still for long. They like to run around quite a lot, perhaps even constantly. They feel quite restless and has trouble keeping their impulsivity in check. It is hard for them to wait their turn for anything, or listen to directions very well. (lemme know if any more is needed) ꕥ Rp examples ꕥ (down in comments!) ꕥ Trivia ꕥ - As a kit, when sneaking out of camp, they sprained their front left paw. It didn't injure much, however, and after about a week it was fully healed. (I've sprained something before, it was super annoying. But it didn't hurt much, and Trapper's was just a light one. Also, they take about no time to heal, lol, mine healed in what, two, three days?) - Their favorite color is gold. - They have always been interested in learning to swim, in actual water, even if they can't. And basically doing anything they can't. - Fascinated with SeaClan cats. Wants to learn everything they can about them. ꕥ Codeword ꕥ This codeword confuses me. Like, actually. It makes me so confused that I am regretting my decision of trying to join the Silver Shores, even though I am quite excited on the other hand. It is way too hard to find and ridiculously long, why in all names would your code word be seventeen syllables and many more than that letters? (this is me being difficult lol)
