Description

Michi Arsov
Image


Role
Student

Gender
Male

Age
16

Personality
Michi grew up being the odd man out, and as he got older he made it a point to not let it happen again. With an easy smile and a carefree laugh, he can blend into most social situations quite easily. He does however, have a soft spot for people in trouble or people being left out, and will often accommodate to them, bringing them into conversations or simply sitting down next to them if theyā€™re alone. He can be a bit of a trickster at times, but his jokes are always harmless. He constantly tries to lighten the mood around him, and doesnā€™t like serious things.
This is on the surface. The deeper someone understands Michi, the more contradictory he becomes. He doesn't believe in promises, and assumes lies before truths. When someone tries to be sincere with him, heā€™ll often laugh it off. He doesnā€™t talk about himself, and is in fact terrified of getting too close to anyone.
What Michi goes to great lengths to keep hidden is his Obsessive-Compulsive disorder, the reason he avoids getting too close to anyone. He has several ā€œticksā€ or compulsions, which will be explained later.


Brief Description
Michi is small for his age at only 5'6", with pale skin and not a lot of muscle mass. He has light green eyes and brown hair, which often looks disheveled. He has a bit of a baby face. The skin on his hands is dry from constant washing, but he was blessed with overall clear skin.

History
Michi grew up with a colorful home life. His father was Russian and his mother Japanese, hence his mix-matched name. He had two older siblings, Vera and Demitri, and one younger sister, Yuiko. His father was a freelance photographer, and in the early years of Michiā€™s life, often took the family on trips to faraway places.
When their parents got divorced however, such trips ended. Michi stayed with his father, and by age 9 he was enrolled in public school. He was bullied and had trouble making friends, and struggled in math. His mother became a very small presence in his life, and often fell through with promises to visit. Vera resented the fact she couldnā€™t live with her mother, and often stayed out late, returning home either high or completely intoxicated. She caused a lot of stress on the entire family, including Michi.
When Michi was 11 was when his symptoms of OCD first began to show themselves. His aversion to odd numbers was causing him to fall behind in math. When in the front of the line at school, he would often have to go to the back because he couldnā€™t help but turn the doorknob several times, what his teachers saw as ā€œmessing around.ā€ He was diagnosed at age 13, and his father attempted to put him in therapy, but in the end didnā€™t have the money to treat him.
When Michi entered middle school his sister Vera finally became too much and was forced to leave the household. Michi hasnā€™t seen her since, though sheā€™s sent an occasional letter. By the time he was 14 he was getting therapy for his OCD and learned how to better control and hide it. He improved in school, though he still didnā€™t have many friends. He began to reinvent himself however, pushing all his family troubles as far behind him as he could. Becoming ā€œlikableā€ was shallow and easy, he realized, and by high school had completely reinvented himself, being both well known and well liked throughout the school. He messed around with girls and boys both, but never in his 16 years has he established any sort of meaningful relationship, friendship or otherwise, which is why his father begged him to enroll at the Academy.

Hex Code

Other
Michiā€™s compulsions:
  • He canā€™t stand odd number quantities. He has to have either two or four of just about everything.
  • When he is the one to open a door, he has to turn the handle four times.
  • He checks his pockets constantly, as well as bags and anything of his thatā€™s locked.
  • Though not germaphobic, he hates dirt. He vacuums his room all the time and refuses to sit on the ground.
  • He will often repeat certain phrases twice, though this is one of his more controlled habits and usually only happens when heā€™s upset.
  • If anyone disturbs his things (ie, moves something on his desk, puts something in his room out of order), he freaks, plain and simple.
Also, he can speak Russian and English fluently, and knows bits and pieces of Japanese


Kick Ass - Mika
We are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belong
We're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our knees

We could rule the world
On a silver platter
From the wrong to the right light
To the open stream
With a crash and burn
We can make it better
Turn it upside down
Just you and me

We are the dream
No other way to be

We are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belong
We're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our knees

I could change the world
I can make it better
Kick it up and down
Took a chance on me
When you fake a smile
And you think you're better
Gonna put it down
Whip it at your feet

No bridge to burn
Nowhere to turn for me

We are young
We are strong
We're not looking for where we belong
We're not cool
We are free
And we're running with blood on our knees

We are young

What do they know about us?
Are they thinking of somebody else?
Are they wondering what we might be?
Are they thinking of you or of me?

Personality

Michi Arsov

1.) Tell us, how old are you? What sex are you? When were you born?
16, Male, January 21

2.) Tell us, what do you Like?
Jeez, what a broad question! I like gum, chocolate, any kinda sweet thing really. I like most movies, old and new, but really old horror movies are definitely the best. I like just having a good time, really. Distractions. Anything to keep my brain occupied, except, you know, school stuff. I like watching people do stuff too. Not in a creepy way! Like, talents. I like watching painters paint or listening to musicians play, that kind of thing. Not for a long time, but itā€™s cool to see people do something out of ordinary living. I like the morning too. The air smells nicest then.

3.) What kind of person are you interested in?
Hmmm, clean people! Haha, just kidding (sort of). I donā€™t know. I like all kinds of people. I like quiet people and loud people, subtle people and up-front, in-your-face people. What I DONā€™T like are people who put other people down all the time. Itā€™s like, sorry we canā€™t all be as wonderful as you, right? I guess this quiz means this a little more seriously though, but honestly, I canā€™t imagine ever really caring what ā€œkind of personā€ someone is. I guess, if I was looking, Iā€™d want someone who respects my space. Someone who notices things, but doesnā€™t pry. I donā€™t like it when people ask a lot of questions, or try to go too deep too fast. I need someone who wonā€™t judge me when they realize Iā€™m not the laid-back person everyone thinks I amā€¦ but thatā€™s asking for a lot. So someone respectful is good I guess. But not boring. Boring people arenā€™t good distractions.

4.) What does 'Love' mean to you?
Deep man, deep, haha. Ummm, I guess love is kissing and holding hands, right? Sex and cuddlesā€¦ yeah yeah, I know, sounds like bullshit even to my ears. Let me start over. Love isā€¦ obscure. No one really knows what love is, they just feel it, I would imagine. Itā€™s being with another person and not being afraid to be yourself. Itā€™s them waiting for you as you wash your hands over and over, being patient and not rolling their eyes, thinking that really, itā€™s a choice and you could deal with it if you wanted to. Itā€™s letting you pick out the movie, knowing youā€™ll pick the same cheesy one every time because itā€™s your favorite. That kind of thing. Knowing someone and being with them anyway. That's the kind of love I'd want, anyways.

Love is hard too, I think. For some people, itā€™s screaming at each other and throwing things followed by making out for three hours. Thatā€™s not for me so much. Iā€™d want fights to be really rare, and when they happen, to completely blow me over like a storm. Iā€™d want both me and them to be depressed for three days straight, and when we finally cave, for it to be beautiful. For us to be different than before we fought. Love is finding a matching pace, I guess. If that makes any sense. Didnā€™t realize I was such a romantic! I will say though, love is also temporary. I definitely believe in ā€œpresent loveā€ but I donā€™t believe in ā€œforever loveā€.


5.) What is your love personality?
It depends who Iā€™m with really. If Iā€™m with a girl, I try to be a gentleman. Iā€™ll make her laugh, give her compliments I might not give other girls to let her know I like her. As for guys, I try to be more subtle. Iā€™ll still make them laugh, but I kind of just let them be. Iā€™ve never seriously gone after someone before, but if I did, Iā€™d go all out. Iā€™d always make sure they knew someone thinks theyā€™re special, and thatā€™s a boy or a girl. Though, honestly, if they reciprocated in a serious way Iā€™d probably hide from them. Getting that close is kinda scary. I definitely do not dig a whole lot of PDA, and in public I wouldnā€™t really initiate anything, though Iā€™m also a pretty ā€œgo with the flowā€ kinda guy and whatever they were into, Iā€™d adjust for unless it was gross.

6.) Is your glass Half Full, or Half Empty?
I donā€™t like calling myself a pessimist, but I donā€™t really expect a lot from things. People especially are nothing to be optimistic about. But I try to keep a smile on my face.

7.) Tell me, what kind of Soulmate may upset you if you got?
Either someone completely cold, or someone who took this whole thing way too seriously. I donā€™t want to spend all of my time with someone who hates me on sight, or thinks Iā€™m an idiot before they even know me. But I donā€™t want someone naming our future children by the time I introduce myself either. Like, Iā€™d hate to disappoint someone who actually wants me to get close to them, because it just wonā€™t happen. Oh, and pair me with a slob, and I will burn the entire school down. Just saying.

8.) How sexually active are you?
Oh, ya know, the biddies come flocking me. Only not really. Iā€™m not a virgin, but Iā€™m not a manwhore either. I kiss casually, but Iā€™ve only done it with a few people.

9.) What are places you like, or scenery?
This is hard. See, I love places like concerts or dances because the energy is just so crazy and fun. But at the same timeā€¦ theyā€™re so disgusting. And Iā€™m always obsessing over if someone is going to steal something from me, so Iā€™m constantly checking my pockets and freaking out when anyone comes too close. But I hate quiet places too, like a park or library or something. School, funnily enough, is a good place. Not to gross, socialization but not too packed. If only we could get rid of those class things.

10.) What did you want to be when you were little? What do you want to be now? Why?
When I was really little, I wanted to be a photographer like my dad. He went all over the place and seemed really happy, and I wanted to make him proud. That was a pretty short lived dream though. When I lived in America I wanted to be President, until my parents kindly reminded me I was born in Russia and thus couldnā€™t.

Now, I havenā€™t really thought about it. Honestly, I donā€™t care. A secretary would be easy, Iā€™m organized and a fast typer. Do they hire guy secretaries? Maybe a personal assistant or something. Something with order and planning, but keeping me good and busy.


11.) What are your favorite bands? Favorite songs? Any Genres?
I like all kinds of music. Party Rock Anthem is my favorite song right now, but it changes every few weeks. I like everything from Brad Paisley to Skrillex, and even some classical is cool. The only stuff I donā€™t really like are artists like Regina Spektor or Florence and the Machine. Their voices are good and stuff, I just feel like they try too hard to be witty. And sometimes they hit too close to home and piss me off, which isnā€™t the point of music.

12.) How do you spend free time?
Uh, good question. I kinda bum around and time passes, haha. I watch a lot of movies. I like online shopping, though I suppose thatā€™s not very manly. Oh well. I kind of like sketching too, though Iā€™m not that good. I donā€™t draw faces or animals or anything, I like to draw clothes and stuff. Or sometimes Iā€™ll cut things out of magazines and put different stuff together to see what I can make. But itā€™s stupid.

13.) Do you read? What is your favorite book?
No. Just no.

14.) Who was the last person you dated?
Er, depends on the definition of dating. Iā€™ve never really been serious with anyone. Last person I kinda hung out with was a girl names Rachel Stopra. She was a blonde, shorter than me. Really cute and not too bright, but really nice. I stopped calling her though because I could tell she was starting to like me and I didnā€™t want to hurt her or anything.

15.) How would you describe yourself?
Easy to get along with, for start. Funny, Iā€™d hope. Probably two faced. Everyoneā€™s acquaintance, nobodyā€™s friend. Not too smart, not too dumb. Nice. The more you get to know me, the less easy I am to get along with. Probably shallow. Iā€™m proud to say no oneā€™s ever called me a jerk before! Crazy, yeah, but not a jerk.

16.) Where would your dream date take place? Why?
Ugh, a dream date would be one that didnā€™t happen. I donā€™t like the word date. Hanging out with a group of friends, seeing a movie or going to an arcade or something, thatā€™s my idea of a good time. Dunno what else to say on that one. Somewhere clean and busy.

17.) What is your Spirit animal?
A spider! That quiz was cute, haha.
Powers: Artistic genius, ability to see patterns and sense trouble from a distance
As a Spider, you're artistic, intuitive, and independentā€”maybe even a little eccentric. You can become so absorbed in your endeavors that you lose track of the outside world and the people in it. But what you give in return is magic, pure and simple.
Best matches: Cougars, Hawks, Owls
Watch out for: Wolves, Otters, Bears


18.) Is there anyone you've got your eye on? *wink* Why?
Nope.

19.) Can you tell us secret you never told anyone?
No one but the school board is gonna read this, right? ā€¦ A few people know I have OCD. Itā€™s not common knowledge or anything, and actually Iā€™ve never said it out loud, but some people know. What no one really knows is how much I completely hate it. How much it affects my life. Iā€™ll spend hours and hours doing the most mundane things, because to me itā€™s never enough, itā€™s always better to check it ā€œjust one more time.ā€ Everyone thinks Iā€™m happy and simple, and thatā€™s the way I want it, but truthfullyā€¦ Iā€™m not. Iā€™m really not.

20.) What are the lyrics to the song that describes you best?

What do they know about us?
Are they thinking of somebody else?
Are they wondering what we might be?
Are they thinking of you or of me?


21.) What color resembled 'Passion', to you? Why?
Black, maybe. I see passion as this all-consuming thing, this need that just drives everything else out. And thatā€™s what black does. It kinda swallows everything and makes it just as black as it is. I think you can say a lot with the color black, but thereā€™s definitely strong feelings hiding behind it.

22.) What gets you hot? Why?
Oh wow, this is embarrassing. I think a girl that says exactly what she wants, instead of blushing and darting around it, is probably the most attractive thing ever. Itā€™s like, ā€œYes, maā€™am!ā€, right? Not in a dominatrix way though! That would be creepy.
As for guy, I like guys that just go for it too, actually. Guys who just push me against a wall and donā€™t ask for permission. But shy guys can be really cute too. When you know their entire head is just filled with you, thatā€™s hot.
Oh, and neck biting. ANYONE bites my neck and itā€™s pretty much all over.


23.) If I walked into your bedroom right now, what may I see?
At this second? Youā€™d see some magazines stacked into two piles on my desk. A vacuum in the corner because I always need it out. Nothing on the floor, and no clutter on my dresser or anything. I have some designs Iā€™ve done hanging on my walls, but if anyone asks, a friend gave them to me. My bed is made and my closet door is shut.

24.) You like TV, huh? What is your favorite Movie? How about Anime? Why?
Favorite move?! Thatā€™s like asking what my favorite hair on my head is! Thereā€™s Frankenstein circa 1931, a classic. I think everyone knows what thatā€™s about. Die, Monster, Die! is about this guy who goes to his fiancĆ©ā€™s dadā€™s house, only to find heā€™s a crazy scientist whose unleashed these plant creatures on everyone. Thatā€™s a 1965 one. I like District 9 as far as more modern movies go, thatā€™s about what would happen if aliens landed on Earth. Pretty cool.
As for anime, I love High School of the Dead. Itā€™s just awesome as far as zombie apocalypses go. Bleach is alright. I kind of have a guilty pleasure for that one shoujo Skip Beat, the art is really cool. I donā€™t watch a whole lot of it though.


25.) How would you Impress someone you like?
I wouldnā€™t do anything different from how I usually am, honestly. Like I said earlier, for girls Iā€™d open doors and stuff. I donā€™t really have anything to impress people with. Unless they find movie trivia impressive, which somehow I doubt. Maybe speak to them in Russian? Some people dig that.

So begins...
