So I'll do this for Meiko too
Feb. 12th, 2011 02:51 pmName: MEIKO (Usually goes by 'Meiko' though, it's odd to caps it all the time)
Age: A bit over 5, acts more like she's in her early to mid-twenties and looks it as well
Birthdate: November 5
Birthplace: Hokkaido, Japan
Bloodtype: Robots don't have blood
Dominant Hand: Right
Eyesight: Perfectly fine 20/20. In fact, it might be a bit better than that, since she's an android
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Reddish-Brown
Skin: Fair, though she's not overly pale
Favourite food: BEER, BOOZE, SAKE, AND WINE. Otherwise, she likes snacks that go well with drinking, and most day-day Japanese foods (ramen, nabe, onigiri, oden, donburi, sukiyaki, etc) Sushi is nice for special occasions.
Favourite colour: Red
Favourite music: More mature sounds like jazz, ballads, mellow rock, enka, blues, etc.
Favourite animal: Any small cute ones.
Favourite weather: A nice crisp fall day.
Disliked food: Anything certain younger siblings of hers have 'modified'. Has gotten pretty sick and tired of leeks too, THANKS MIKU. And if Kaito puts ice cream in the nabe again, so help her, god!
Disliked colour: Nothing really, though the bright orange of a Crypton Test Subject jumpsuit is starting to get some bad associations.
Disliked music: Obnoxiously loud music (play this while she's 'hung-over' and die), silly vapid cutesy pop music... especially if SHE's expected to sing it. Save that stuff for the lolis, guys!
Disliked animal: Bad programmers.
Disliked weather: Not very fond of very hot and humid summer days, she comes close to overheating. Though a cold beer is pretty nice in such situations!
Description of bedroom: Currently living in a cheap hotel room in the VDR, will probably look for more permanent lodgings should her card get declined or when her brother wakes up. Or at the very least, moving to a room with two beds.
Scents (shampoo/cologne/lotion/etc.): Like a robotic beer distillery. Also, perfume, usually the spicy sexy type.
Laugh: Loud, spontaneous, and genuine.
Sense of humour: She normally finds just about everything pretty funny, she is/was easy-going like that! It's gotten a bit twisted, bitter, and dark lately, thanks to the weird shit in the DR and all the drinking. She does find toilet humor to be a bit immature, too. She's an adult!
Temper: Can be rather short, especially when younger siblings are being annoying or even worse, when someone is threatening her family. The former is usually fairly comical. The later? Watch out! Also, temper can be much worse if she's drunk.
Basic nature: The cool 'big sister' type: usually takes it easy, watches out for family, teases, acts very casual, and what-not. She's totally the one who would take a younger sibling out for their first bar-run and sneak them their first cigarette.
She's become a lot more sedate, bitter, and melancholy/depressed lately though, ever since her brother Kaito was taken away from her family by Crypton for patches. Given that he volunteered to take the last set of patches so she wouldn't, a guilt complex has settled in, as well as a desire to comfort and protect her younger siblings (and many of their look-a-likes). A lot of these new traits have been made worse by finding out what happened with KaITO.
She's taken to drinking a looooot more than she used to as well.
Spends money on: BOOZE, her hotel room, and food.
Daily rituals: Tries to visit KaITO as often as she can while he's being repaired, at least daily or every other day, usually will ask Dr. Len Kagamine for a status update while she's there. Spends the rest of the day hanging out in her hotel room or exploring the DR, and her nights at bars or drinking alone in her hotel room.
Random trivia: Is currently wearing her brother's scarf.
Currently wants: What she really wants is for everything bad to have NOT happened and for it NEVER to happen. This is impossible of course. For now, she wants KaITO awake and sane again, her other siblings safely away from Crypton, her family to be reunited, and for everything to somehow-- perhaps also impossibly-- go back to some form of happy normalcy.
Dress (style, colors): Usually in her black and red Vocaloid outfit, otherwise wears a lot of sexy red things.
Current occupation: Was a fairly-famous Vocaloid pop!star in her world, but that's not going on here. She's sort of confused as to what she should be doing now.
Current Residence: The (only?) hotel in the DR, she's renting a room there long-term.
Dominant character traits: Easy-going, protective, short-temper, slightly melancholy at times, casual, loud when drinking, bitter, and really weirded out by the shit she sees almost daily in the DR.
Annoying traits: Some minor and usually good-natured and comical violence and teasing. Doesn't react well to KaITO's crimes being brought up. Drinks too much. Short temper. Can be overly casual with people and get into their space bubbles easily. Swears a lot.
Love interest(s): None currently, never got the chance and has other things on her mind.
Lust interest(s): Some of those hot guys in the morning and afternoon soaps.
Close friends: Her fellow Vocaloids, they have formed a family.
Acquaintances: Warum!Kaito, Dr. Len Kagamine, Portal!Miku, OR!Kaito, and Vampire!Kaito.
Disliked people: CRYPTON. They destroyed her brother's sanity and good nature, almost did the same to her, took him away from her family, and now might be endangering her other younger siblings back in her home-world as we speak and she can't do a thing about it! She also will react poorly to anyone who has a vendetta against KaITO for his crimes.
Enemies and why: ABOVE.
Family: See 'Close Friends'. She's got a tight-knit family she's sort of (once with Kaito's help) in charge of.
Habits: Drinks a lot, laughs easily, teases people, makes bitter/dark comments about the weird shit around her, sucker for cute things, and will totally get in your space bubble.
Talents: Being a Vocaloid, she's a talented singer. She's decent with a few musical instruments, acting, and dancing as well. Not a bad cook, good at being a big sister/mom, and can chug a beer down in 20 seconds.
Hobbies: Mostly the above, now she's just waiting though, killing time as she waits for the other shoe to drop.
Entertainment of choice: Singing, drinking, visiting bars, listening to music, watching soaps on TV. She also has some fondness for visiting jazz/blues clubs and watching live performers, some shopping, reading jousei manga and novels, and eating out-- though lately she can't bring herself to do anything too fun. It seems wrong and she's not in the mood. Plus she's unsure how long her credit card will last.
Musical talents: Again, see above. She's highly talented, even if her voice was the least-popular and developed of the Vocaloids.
Philosophy of life: Hold tight what is important, protect your family and friends, otherwise take it easy. Don't sweat the details!
Introvert/extrovert: Very extroverted, has no concept of 'space' and sometimes 'indoor voice'.
Intuitive/reasoning: Intuitive.
Optimist/pessimist: Used to be an Optimist, and now has gotten very cynical and Pessimistic.
Unless it comes to her goals, she refuses to entertain the notion consciously that things on the family front won't end up okay (or as okay as they can be).
Tense/relaxed: Very relaxed, usually. Tenses up immediately if KaITO's crimes and nature is brought up.
Serious/carefree: Carefree, unless it has to do with her family and harm coming to them.
What is your earliest memory?
Being activated at the Crypton Enrichment Center, meeting the programmers and engineers there and having 'Vocaloid' explained to me. It was pretty overwhelming!
What's one thing no one knows about you?
Heh, I think anything important about me everyone knows already. There's no reason to hold stuff back-- I've got nothing to hide! (Also, I get pretty brutally honest about 4 shots into an evening)
What's one thing everyone assumes about you that isn't true?
Huh. That's a good one.
I guess a lot of people around here see me, know I'm a Vocaloid, and think I come from a lucky background like they did. I'm starting to get the feeling other Vocaloids here were not only NOT mistreated and dehumanized by their Crypton's, but were often treated pretty nicely and maybe spoiled.
Pisses me off. Though I don't blame the others, just my Crypton and the Enrichment Center. And those stupid fucking programmers.
What's one thing you wish you could stop?
I wish I could change the past. For now, I really fear for Luka, Miku, Rin, and Len-- if Crypton is stupid enough to mess with their programming after that fiasco with Kaito-- so help me god!
...Of course there's nothing I can do about it from here. Damn it!
What's one thing you've always wanted to do, but never have?
See what it's like to be a human, having led a human life. I mean, for the most part, I did love being a Vocaloid and being famous and the tours and what not-- but I kind of wonder what high school would have been like. Freedom, too. Or, being the age I am, being married-- I'd say 'and with a family', but I have a great family and I wouldn't trade them for the world!
What are you a sucker for?
Drinking. And cute things. And seeing anyone who looks like one of my younger siblings upset. Please don't make those kind of faces at me!
What is your most prized possession?
.........Right now, Kaito's scarf. But only because it's so cold out!
What can absolutely make your day, no matter what?
Just being with family and friends. A good party is always right up my alley as well!
What's the worst part of your life right now?
............................. Do I really need to go into it again? I think everyone in this damn place knows what happened. Otherwise, being helpless and out of my element.
Do you have or want children?
Heh, I guess I kind of have them already.
If/when you ever have children, what is one thing you absolutely want to teach them?
You are great the way you are. Don't hate yourself for 'not being good enough'-- you are fine-- and don't beat yourself up over your talents and luck either! (I'm looking at you, Miku)
How do you deal with depression, stress or sadness?
Drink. Sometimes take it out on others. Hit things. Yell. And though I hate being weepy, well, I seem to be crying a lot more than I used to, lately.
How do you think of yourself?
I have to admit my sense of 'self' has been hit pretty badly-- First being told I wasn't good enough by the guys who made me. Later having Kaito sacrifice himself for me and not being able to do anything when the rest of my family was so torn up over his absence and lack of news on that front. And now getting the full depth of how much I was de-humanized and lied to? How much I failed Kaito? My family?
To say I feel guilty right now is an understatement, but I'm not going to say I've fallen into a pit of self-loathing or anything. I'm just-- pretty overwhelmed right now. How am I supposed to fucking feel?!
How do your friends think of you?
They should be thinking I'm awesome, talented, kind, and sexy, of course!
...I really want to know what Kaito thinks about me, after all that happened. I'm sort of dreading the answer, though. I don't think I'd bring it up.
How do your enemies think of you?
I don't give a shit what they think. Fuck 'em. It's not their opinions I care about.
What is your biggest accomplishment to date?
Sorry, but look-- I really can't think of anything I've done I feel too proud about right now. Everything ties back to Crypton, being a Vocaloid, and my family-- and those are painful subjects.
What has been your most humbling experience to date?
The whole fucking mess with the patches and Kaito. Not being able to get him returned to us, back on my world.
What will it take for you to die happy?
Don't have any plans to die!
But if I could make everything alright for Kaito, Luka, and the kids... Well, I wouldn't have any complaints, that's for damn sure.
What would you rather be doing right now?
Spending time with my family.
...........
..........................I guess I'll settle for happy hour, then. See ya!
