Hai everybody. I am an acquaintance of Sketcher. At least, I hope so. ._. If not, then he has tricked me into making a CS for an anime I am actually not very fond of. (I still am trying, don't gang up on me! I will make no crude jokes about the anime, I promise! No, don't come closer! ._.) In all honesty and seriousness, I have made my CS and hope it is both enjoyable and good enough. I hope I can become an acquaintance of you guys too. That would be all, for now. Oh! Snap! The CS!

She is a person that often stays first at the background, trying to learn about others before she acts. Though she is one that doesn't really like to bond, she acts and thus manipulates others at best as she can. Due her history, she never learned another way how to get what she wants. Using what can be used and take what she can take. That is the personal motto of Mika. This doesn't mean she can't be loyal. It is much of the other way. Mika is very loyal to others, but it has a twist to it. She is only loyal when she learns or knows she can use the said person in order to survive or improve her situation. If it is either on a short or long term. As a fairly intelligent person, Mika does has some flaws that sometimes enables others to see through her acts. Though she manipulates people and has her own, often hidden, agenda, Mika despise to lie. She doesn't see manipulating words as a lie, but she will never tell a direct lie. She would rather keep her lips shut than to defile her tongue with such a vile act. Next to that is her pride. She takes a great pride on that she is mostly independent from many. Though one could assume that this because of her life as an orphan, Mika personally would claim that she is just skilled in what she can do in order to keep herself independent. [img=http://i.imgur.com/DN3p4.png] [u][b]Backstory[/b][/u]: Though she knows nothing of them, Mika had two parents that lived in the Shiganshina district. They were simple people, that owned a bakery. Nothing strange or special one would say. And after the two gained Mika, what could go wrong? They had no debts or any riches, as they had to work hard to survive. So, nothing to attract attention right? Still Mika ended up as an orphan. It is a subject she never talks about or is willing to talk about. The orphanage where she grew up was her home for quite some time. It was at the orphanage that Mika learned how life worked. At least, in her opinion that she holds on to stubbornly. In order to survive, one has to be ruthless. Whether it is in making decision or taking an action, the strong will prosper and the weak will be crushed. After she became however at the age of twelve, Mika started to try learn herself how to read and write. It was because she had managed to steal a book. Though at first she saw little interest in it, because it wouldn't drive away hunger or be that much of a weapon against somebody, Mika became intrigued with the weird markings in it. It sparked the curiosity in her. It only would last three years before she had managed to be able to read and write, on the age of 15 years old. An age where she took another decision. She suddenly started to show interest in joining the military. Never has she told somebody why she had a strong desire to do so and it seems odd. A person that rarely truly cares about somebody else would join a faction that is there to protect the civilians? But whenever one asks anyways why she wants to join up with the military, she jokes that its already a [i][b][u]lost world[/u][/b][/i] they are living in.

You can't make her happier than with candy or things that have a sweet taste. [i][b]*[/b][/i] When nervous, Mika has the habit of flexing the fingers of her right hand. [i][b]*[/b][/i] Somehow, Mika has developed the habit of staring people who she finds interesting. Not just for a few moments, but sometimes she does it for minutes. [b][i]*[/i][/b] Has a somewhat obsession with knives. Don't ask. [/center] [/hider]
