[ CLOTHING STYLE ]

Lets begin with yet another long, long app, shall we? Honestly, I'm excited for this one. Writing an appearance, personality, and history for Kitsu when the character is Silver? Dude, sign me up! I'd RP him myself, but then there'd be no SoulSilverShip - oh. Wait. I'm writing an app here, not a chat box post. Okay, where were we? Oh, right. The clothes. What does Silver wear? Well, if he'd been any person in the real life world, this would be a hard question to answer, guessing as he'd be someone who'd wear a different type of clothing for every day of the week just like everyone else. However, this is is a character from a video game, anime, and manga series. I wouldn't be surprised if they wear the exact same clothes every day, not wearing a bunch of identical outfits. So what is this particular person's outfit, you might ask? Well, it's actually very simple. There's a lot of dark colors - grays, black, scarlet, and a dark, muted blue. He wears a jet black tee-shirt that tucks into his jeans, and a long jacket that pulls over that. Heck, even in the middle of ninety degree weather, he'll wear that jacket. Dark gray in color - tintest just the slightest bit of blue - it fits him just perfectly, being long and tight. It's held together down the middle, but as to what holds it together, I'll never be sure - buttons? A zipper? - since all the indication there is is a long red stripe from the top of its turtleneck color to where is splits in two at the bottom. Odd stripes, mainly for design purposes, also branch off of this vertical line, while the bottom of the garment is lined in red. The ends of his sleeves are also this same shade of crimson. Long, somewhat baggy jeans can be found clinging to his legs. Again, they're a muted blue color - what you'd find to be the general color for most denim clothing - and are probably the lightest peice of apparel he'll ever wear. A gray belt is tied around the top of said jeans, though I don't think it's actually necessary. As for shoes, I'm going to take a guess and say they're just some sort of fancy black tennis shoes, lined with the same color of red as his hair and jacket. Good enough for me! Formal occations? Ha! As if! Being the little asocial thing he is, formal outings are the last thing he'd attend. No need to bother dressing up for something as stupid and foolish as that. As for pajamas, it's really just a simple "throw off my jacket and sleep wherever" guessing as he hasn't had a real place to stay since he ran away from home. So, over all, he's got the regular style of any other trainer. Except he's cuter. >.>

[ PHYSICAL STATURE ]

Okay, where to start with this, where to start... Oh, I know! Let's start with one of the very first things you'd notice about him - other then his hair, of course. His height! Ah, yes, you know those really tall people? 'Cause I know I do. I was never very tall myself, especially in comparison to my older sister, so I've always envied those who were blessed with a decent height. Just another reason why she was better at basketball then me. But I'm getting off topic again! Okay, look - this guy's just a little over six feet. Six feet. I guess, to come people, that wouldn't be much of an accomplishment, but stick him next to someone that's pretty average in height, and they might very well tell you otherwise. I think that's tall, and since I'm the one writing the app, you can stick a pipe in it and smoke it. He's always been pretty tall, really, even when he was younger. He hit his growth spurt a little sooner then all the other boys his age, though he'd never know that unless you told him. One of the many downfalls to being forced to stay a secret as a child. When he was younger, as well, he was always pretty skinny and, to be quite honest, he's still pretty skinny. I doubt he's been overweight once in his life with that magical combination of a high metabolism and the fact he refuses to eat anything until his stomach is clawing at his insides. If anything, he's a little to skinny for his own good. He doesn't have massive muscles like some of the Rockets he always saw when he was younger, though part of him - even though he'll never admit it - wishes he did. Instead, he settles with what he has. There's no real reason for him to strive to achieve more, though, if he really wanted to, he probably could. Not that there's some girl he's got to impress, anyways. He makes up in strength with his arms and legs, however. Running has always been one of the few activities he never really hated as a child, and he's only grown more fond of the excersise as the years went by, and, when he really wants to, he can pack a punch if he ever feels like throwing his fist into someone else's face. Again, he's got a pretty high metabolic rate, which means that he could chow down a lot more then he does. I guess he just doesn't like food as much as me.

So, like, we're in the third paragraph. Third paragraph, people! What am I gonna write about? I don't know. Do you? No? Well, good, 'cause I cam eup with an idea while I was chatting my mouth off. There are some people - take me, for instance - who have really long, skinny fingers that sometimes creeps others out when you compare them to the average bear, every day good-doer. Mine are really flexable, too. It's awesome. Well... Silver doesn't exactly have those. Nope. He's one of those average bears, every day good-doer. Well, I wouldn't exactly call him a good-doer, but... You get the point. He's never been to a salon - heaven forbid! - but he tends to keep his nails generally clean and pretty darn short. IF he gets to annoyed with their length, sometimes he'll chew them off, but that doesn't really occur to often. Jewelry is for girls, people! I know, it might be a little girly that he takes for of his fingernails better then I do mine, but... really? I think the only ring he's ever worn in his life might have been one of those modd rings when he was a child. Other then that... Nothing. Zero, zilch, none. He always wears the watch that his father gave him personaly when he was still a little boy - what do you know? He just started fitting into it. Great way to think ahead, dad! - on his right wrist, partially for the sake of keeping time and also to remind him of what he fights for. His legs are fairly long and muscles from, as I've said before, him running so much, but that's a little hard to see under his semi-baggy jeans. He's got some decently sized feet under those legs, too... I'd say about a size ten or eleven for shoe size? I don't know. I'm not a genius when it comes to men's shoe sizes. Just... come up with a size yourself if you simply must know what kind he wears on his feet.

I like ghosts. No, scratch that. Ghost stories. Do you like ghost stories? Yes? Do I have one for you? Well, I can alwayts tell you about how ridiculously scared my mom, siblings and I get whenever we go upstairs in my grandparent's house. Arg, you feel like there's someone watching you and it's always freezing except for one room which is always really hot... And then some of those rooms... Oh, crud. Off topic! I'm getting off topic! Okay, so... yeah. Ghosts. What do they have to do with silver. Their skin color, obviously! Okay, so maybe our silver-eyed ginger isn't exactly white skinned, but he sure is pale! Put him next to your average bear, every day good-doer, and he will look as white as a ghost in comparison. His skin's also a bit more see through then your average bear trainer. You can count a crud ton of veins in his hand. He also gets cut really easily, but that's not on the list of topics, so... I honestly have no idea how he'd talk... Though, it'd probably be hot I suppose, he could sound like he did in that one Our 16 Bit Warz cover by him and Gold I found on Youtube. Who wants a link? Since he's well past puberty, I think he'd be a lower tenor. I can't imagine him as a bass at all, but... Arg. I don't know. You come up with an accent, will ya'?

[ HAIR & EYES ]

Do you remember that one time? Like, two or three paragraphs up from here when I said something about his hair? Guess what time it is~! And the person who says Adventure Time gets a brick to the face. Okay, so what's so fancy about this hair of his? Well... it's red. Oh, no, not the kind of red that lies and looks more orange then anything. Not the carrot-top red. I'm talking red. I'm talking Nebraska Huskers red. And it's not dyed or anything, either. He was born with scarlet hair. It would've been such a pain for him if he'd had to go through elementry. Can you image? "That hair of your's is a distraction to the other students. We suggest you dye it a more natural color as to not upset the learning experiance". And that would be when we all died of laughter. No, but, seriously. Okay, there's another thing that makes this hair so peculiar. It's... really long. I wouldn't say as short as it was in the games - I mean, time's passed since then, right? - but not as long as it was in the Heart Gold and Soul Silver arc of Pokemon Special. Dude, seriously? I like long hair, but a boy with the same length of hair as me? Mine went to my mid back before I cut off a few inches. ... Okay, so maybe it's not the same length, 'cause mine still goes mid back. But it's still a bit to long for him. I'd say it goes a bit past his shoulders. Mid shoulderblade, perhaps? It also sticks out at a bunch of really weird angles, like the strands that refuse to stay down and always curl upwards at the top of his head and the really spikey looking strands that start to look a little anti-gravitational. Dude, what's with these Johto people? All of their hair defy gravity, kind of like in the new Black and White sequals, all the main characters have ridiculous amounts of hair. It's... It's awesome, how cool the Johto people are. Anyway, I'm going to try to keep my fangirling to a minimum (do you know how hard it is, writing an app for the person I fangirl about the most?) so I can actually finish the app. There's not hair-care routine to those scarlet locks of his, really, unless you say that using shampoo and conditioner in the shower counts as one. It hasn't begun to loose it's color, since he's not even twenty years of age yet. He has his family tree to thank for his long lasting hair - after all, his dad's probably as old as dirt and still has a head of black hair.

If the next few sentances don't make sense, I'm going to apologize real quick. So... I'm sorry. Silver's got a pretty defined bone structure in the face. His chin's pretty strong, too. As for his nose, there's really nothing to special about it. After all, it's just your average bear nose - not to big, not to small. Facial hair? ... If Silver ever thought of growing a beard of mustache, I would die. I loved Vegeta from Dragon Ball, and look what happened to his design in GT when - oh. Crud. Did I say that out loud? But, really, there's no facial hair. Perhaps he just has an inability to grown any hairs on his face, or maybe he just shaves every day. Don't know, don't care. All I know is, as long as his face is smooth, I think I don't have to throw away my life just yet. Okay, now, I talked about his hair and a bunch of other random crud in the paragraph above this. But what's this section called? Hair and eyes? So, guess what we're talking about next! If you guessed nose, I'm sorry. you need to get your eyes checked. Because eyes are exactly what we're going to be talking about! This ginger's eyes are probably the most important physical feature about him. And why? Well, they gave him his name, of course! That's right, those two orbs placed on either side of his face are a metalic shade of the precious metal shipping. Perhaps he would've gotten more comments and compliments then he does had he not been shooting every person in existance the death glare of all glares. They're really dark, his eyes, and are the only window in the wall he's set up for himself to guard himself from all emotions, whether it be others or his own. If he's sad, he'll continue to scowl, but his eyes will show the world all the pain he's feeling. If he's happy, he grunt and cross his arms, but those eyes will spark a joyous fire. His eyelids aren't all that heavy, while his eyelashes are thin and not something worthy of noting. His eye brows aren't particularly big or dark... They're actually kind of thin. There's no redness or discoloring in his face, though, since he's easily embarassed, his face often grows a shade of crimson that can rival his own hair. As for everything else... He has straight, pearly white teeth, a long neck, average ears, and pretty plain lips.

I guess, face and hair-wise, Silver could almost pass off as a girl, if you really wanted him to. Toss and a bit of make-up and a dress on, and you'd hardly be able to tell the difference... >:3

[ OTHER ]

There's really not much else to say, not. He never really had a lot of freckles across his face since, as a child, he never really got to go outside. Maybe once or twice a month. He doesn't have any special birthmarks, either. And tattoos? Well, maybe he thought of getting one once, but, from what I can tell, I don't think there's one to be found on his body.

THE PERSONALITY
And there it goes
He's so close to a remedy
A painful host of his time
And he'll never show to the world
How his life's supposed to be
Drenched by the dark in his mind
~ Cranking the Sires, Soilwork

PERSONALITY;;

[ Strengths Part One ]

Okay, guys, we've got a lot to cover and hardly any time to do it, so, I say, we cut with the rambling and get straight to the point with this personality. ... As if! My ramblings keep me entertained! How else do you think I write all this stuff without giving up half way and not putting in my full effort? Honestly, I don't, but that's not the point. I honestly had a little bit of troubles coming up with strenght personality-wise with this certain ginger. Guys, I love him to death, but... seriously? But I find ten, so it's about time we start elaborating on these strengths that took me forever and a day to find. Ambition. For those of you Warriors fans out there, you know that the most ambitious of all the felines wind up becoming blood thirsty murderers who wind up ruining everyone's lives. Well, at least, I see it that way. But Silver's ambition is not to be seen in a bad way - something that will turn him into a power hungry monster like his father. His ambition means he has the motivation to be better overall. Pokemon weak and need training? He'll do anything it takes to make them stronger. This also means that, if he really set his mind to becoming more like - hm, let's say... Gold or Crystal - he could honestly make that change. Of course, if he keeps telling himself that he hates those two, even when he really doesn't, chances of that happening are pretty slim. Sorry, Gold and Crys. You're gonna have to deal with this cold kid for quite a while. Courageous. You think that the people who stood up to not only the most nefarious criminal organization in the land, but also its leader who, with one of them, just happened to be blood related were you average, every day people? No! It took courage and bravery to stand up to those who were threatening to disrupt the balance of Johto, and even more courage for everyone's favorite ginger to stand up to his father who could have easily beaten the pulp out of him. This young adult has quite a bit of bravery in him, though he and others around it might not always see it, and that's something that I doubt will go away any time soon. Focused. Dude, I'm running out of things to say here and, honestly, I'm losing muse fast. So what does this have to do with the app? It's because I'm losing focus on what I need to be doing, which is finishing this application for Kitsu. See, if it were Silver sitting at this computer screen, his fingers flying all over the keyboard as he typed, he wouldn't be losing as much focus as I am right now. I mean, he wouldn't get off topic nearly as much as I am and he probably wouldn't be writing an autobiography like this about himself. Of course, he's not real, so he wouldn't be able to - oh, crud. I'm doing it again, aren't I? Losing focus? Silver can usually grow so focused into what he's doing that he can't hear or see anything going on around him - just whatever he's doing at that particular moment. It'd take someone as annoying as the remaining canons from Johto - or a brick to the head, of course - to snap him out of his self induced trances. Now there's something I wish I could do! You see, I'm really easily distracted, no matter what it is I'm doing. What? You could already tell that by what I've written so far in this personality? Pssh, shows what you know. *awkward cough* Anywho... There are two kinds of people in this world. Okay, actually three. There are people who work their butts off to achieve the things they recieve. They work hours after hours after hours and don't stop until their task is complete. Then, there are the people who sit around all day and wait for things to come to them on a silver platter, who don't work a day in their lives and, yet, get all of their necessities, if not more. The third category is the in between, which I'd say I'm in, if not the people who sit around all day. Well, actually, sometimes I do work my butt off, but that's a different story. Silver is one of those people who has to work hard every day of his life. His rival is the Johto Pokemon League champion for pity's sake. The people he hates the most are the members of an organization much stronger in numbers and sometimes overall strength then he is. He has no family, no home, and few friends he can turn to. So he works in order to achieve his goals and not wind up living on the streets, and boy, does he do a good job of it. Well, he's had some practice, so that much is to be at least slightly anticipated. Okay, we're onto the fifth strength. Once we're done with this, we'll be one fourth of the way done with this app. Can you handle the pressure? No? Then stop reading. oh, you can? Well, good for you. Have a cookie, or something. There are a lot of immature people out there. You'd swear, all those immature people have gathered at my school district. But whatever. We're talking about some of the few, actually mature people under the age of twenty. Silver is one of those people. Even at a young age, this male was forced to act and think like someone much older then himself. Back then, it was because he'd have to lead a large number of people if his father ever died before the organization collapsed. Now, it's not only because he'd grown so used to acting like someone far older then himself, but also because he has to. Again, no home, no family, and, in his mind, no one to turn to. So, no, he's never cracked jokes as sick minded things or made silly puns like so many of us have. Heck, I doubt he's cracked a joke ever. In his entire life. And that's kind of sad. He would hate my lunch table with a burning passion, for that reason. Fifty percent of our conversations are making bad jokes, making good ones, or just laughing obnoxiously loud. Plus, fourty percent of the words that come out of my mouth during out lunch period has something to do with me fangirling over him or torturing him in my fanfics, so that doesn't help out much, either. So, yeah. Mature dude in the house.

[ Strengths Part Two ]

Okay! What next? We've got five out of twenty points done, and we're already over one thousand words in. Crazy, huh? You know, if I keep going at this rate, this boy's personality is going to be over a thousand words longer then Lyra's. She's got three thousand one hundred words. Exactly. That's crazy long. I don't even want to write that much. So, let's try not to torture you all with that many words. Let's try to get on with it. Now, if there's one thing you'll learn by hanging aruond my two younger brothers is that they never, and I mean never take responsibility. It's always, "He/she did it!" or "It wasn't me!" or "I didn't have anything to do with this! It was all their fault!". Unfortunately, there are a lot of people like that in this word, and I'm thankful that, for the most part, I'm not one of those people. Well, at least, I don't think I am. But there's one person who I know isn't one of those people: Silver. I mean, really, he hates people who do stuff like that. Wouldn't he be a bit if a hypocrit if he went around doing the exact same thing he hated so much? If he's done something wrong and someone tries to place the blame on him, he'll openly admit to doing whatever crime it was. If they place the blame on someone else, well, he'll step up and defend them. Not because he wants to help them, but because it'd be wrong of him to let another get punished for what he's done. Isn't he the person who, after taking down Team Rocket went back to return the Feraligatr that he stole? Well, we all know that Professor Elm told him that, no, the water-type had grown to fond of the red-head to be seperated from it's master, but... At least he tried, right? You know how, earlier, I said that he's probably never made a joke in his life? Well, there's another reason for that. He's so... serious. Makes me wonder why, in Pokemon Special, Gold only calls Crys Super Serious Gal. Probably 'cause Silver isn't a girl. Everything to him is taken seriously. Whether it be training, doing something else of great importance, or... or some other third thing, he'll be completely, well, serious about it. This also means that he doesn't takes people making jokes about him well, guessing as he takes everything to heart, but... While others might be lazy or something or might laugh at some of the errands they have to do, Silver is just the opposite. Heck, even running a few blocks to pick up some milk at the Poke' Mart could be handled like an important mission. Okay, now, it really seems like I'm starting to repeat myself. And, for that, I'm sorry. Really sorry. Work-oriented. Everything is work. Everything, everything, everything. He doesn't do things just to do them. If there's a mountain, he won't climb it unless there's some girl trapped in a tree at it's peak. If there's an ocean, he's not goign to go swimming unless it's to calm some wild Pokemon. He has to have a reason for doing everything because, to him, everything is work. Fun? Bah, the word's not even in his vocabulary. ... Dude, I'd die if I were him. All work and no play? And, now that I think about it, hiking and swimming are some of my favorite things to do during the summer... And, no, I don't think I've done either of the two because someone's trapped or there are monsters attacking people. Anywho... Yes. Work. This is one of the many things he and his fellow Johto trainer, Crystal, have in common. Woot, woot. Now, for those School Rumble fans out there, you know how Tenma is late? For everything? Like, half an hour to and hour and a half late without realizing it? Well, I'm not one of those people. and neither is Silver. Sweetness. There's something we actually have in common. No matter what it is, unless he's been run over by a train or something, he'll always get there on time. And, even if he has been run over by a train and lives he'll crawl there if he has to. Aw. That sounds like it would really, really hurt. And then, after meetnig up with everyone, going, "Hey, guys, I crawled here after being hit by a train. I'm gonna head over to the hospital, now..." and fainting, at least he'll be able to say he made it on time. Aw, one more strength personality wise? Dude, that's it? Yeah. That's it. Actually, he's probably got a lot more strengths and weaknesses since he's a pretty in depth character, but, you know... Whatever. Ten for both works. I am a perfectionist. Perfectionist, perfectionist, perfectionist. Well... when it comes to some things, I am... Like... drawing. Yes, drawing. I'll draw for a bit, flip out when it's not perfect, rip it up, scream about how terrible I am at life in general, grab another piece of paper, then start all over again. ... The cycle repeats. This is very similar to the way Silver acts. Woot, woot! Another thing we have in common! Anyway, unlike me, this effects everything he does, not just drawing. Because, honestly, I doubt that he's drawn a picture since he was just a tiny little boy living in the Team Rocket base. Even then, I don't think he had time to draw a picture. Everything goes back to training, doesn't it? Yes, it does. He'll train for hours and hours until his Pokemon are the exact level that she wants them to be. If he's trying to get one of his Pokemon to learn a new move, it's never, "Oh, that was close. Let's try tomorrow." No, it's always, "Not. Good. Enough." And it'll stay like that until it's absolutely, possitively perfect. And that is all. See you all later~! And I mean later as in the next paragraph! No more strengths left to do... Just this silver-eyed boy's weaknesses.

[ Weaknesses Part One ]

Okay, let's get this right - Silver hates weakness. Everything about. He can't stand weak people, the faint of heart, et cetera... So why on earth is it that it was easier for me to find weaknesses personality-wise then strengths personality-wise? Little backwards, don't you think? But, you know... whatever. He love him, even if he's a bit of a hypocrit. So. We're halfway done. What could possibly come next? Well, for this paragraph, I have an entire five personality traits to explain and get really off topic with. It's gonna be so f- WAIT A MINUTE. I AM TURNING INTO LYRA. *cries in corner* Let's... Let's just get on with this app... Rebellious. Oh, now, where do I remember seeing this? In my last app, obviously! This is probably going to be the only thing Lyra and Silver have in common, though - these two canons are as different from one another as they can possibly be when it comes to their personalities. Even as a young child, we saw Silver's rebellious tendancies shine through. The way he snuck out of the Team Rocket base every day when he was specifically told not to leave? The way he ran away from home after the fall of the organization that raised him? The way he decided to take the road far less traveled and stole a starter Pokemon instead of just up and accepting one from Professor Elm like the others? Yep. If he's told to do anything - unless he actually wants to do it - he'll probably turn around and do just the opposite. Unlike me, who does ninty-five percent of what I'm told when I'm told to do it without complaint, even if I really don't want to, he'll just throw whoever a half hearted thumbs up, then turn around and "forget" to do it. And then, he'll "forget" again. And he'll keep "forgetting" until whoever's trying to get him to do something realizes that the job wasn't left undone due to a poor memory. Okay, so. We've got that down. What's next? Oh, I don't know... Maybe the fact that he's cold as ice? No, I don't mean that, when you touch his hands or his face or something, you'll recoil and exclaim how cold his skin is. This is a description of his personality, not how cold his skin is, people. Come on! But, yes, ever since he ran away from home, Silver has been quite the bitter person. Smiles are rare, if not non existant in the eyes of the public. The "you're dead to me" look, though it is to be just as feared, is given to almost every person on the face of the Pokemon World. His face is almost always twisted into a scowl. Okay, so, maybe he's had a rough past. Maybe his upbringings weren't the best. But... seriously? Well, I guess I haven't had all that rough of a past *knocks on wood* so I wouldn't exactly know... But, you know, whatever. So, yes. He's very cold. That's all you need to know. Now, we've only got three more traits to go, and this paragraph is done! Sweetness, right? Yeah~! Okay, so... Yeah. Secretive. Silver is a bit of a loner. He doesn't enjoy people butting in on his business, demanding to know every single little thing about him and tagging along to wherever he'd going. There's a lot of things that he knows and no one else does, and you'd never be able to tell te difference between him being oblivious to something or knowing what it is. This is a skill that he developed early on in his years, being trained by Team Rocket's best members. He won't give away his secrets, either. You can get under his skin all you want - well, unless your name happens to be Gold, of course- and he won't budge in the slightest. I honestly have no idea what else to say here, other then he's awesome at lying and kepping things to himself so only he knows about nintey percent of the things that go on through the dark mind of his. Cool, right? Yeah. It is. Deal with it. So, what next? We've got all of those strengths, that he's rebellious, cold, secretive, cute beyond all words... What more is there? Well, my impatient friends, we've still got seven more traits to go, including this one. So... what is this one? Aw, this ginger is a very... inconsiderate person. If you're crying your heart out, he'll walk right past without saying anything or tell you to man up and stop crying. Well, at least, if you're a stranger, that is. If you're someone particularly close to him - friends might not be a good word, since he absolutely fails at making those - he'll probably do the first of the two options simply because he doesn't know how to comfort people. I'm mean, it's not like anyone's ever been there to lend him a helping hand when he needed it. How would he know how to treat others in their times of need? So, to others, he comes of as inconciderate, though, sometimes, it might just be because of the fact that he doesn't know how to be conciderate. Oh my gosh, one more trait to this paragraph and I need one hundred more words. Do you think I can do it? Man, I hope so. But I'm not gonna get anywhere by blabbering on and on, am I? I've got to actually get to talking about his personality weaknesses! Alright, lastly in this paragraph, we find that this silver-eyed male is quite... rude. It doesn't matter who you are - a child, and adult, the President of the United States... Respect is something that you need to earn with him. It doesn't matter if you've earned everyone else's. If you haven't done anything to prove to him that you're worth his respect where he can see, then you don't deserve his respect at all. And, let me tell you, you've got a lot a work to do if you don't want him to be completely rude to you.

[ Weaknesses Part Two ]

Okay, only one more paragraph to go and this app is done! Yay~! No more writing for me and no more reading for you~! We can all get done with our lives! I love it so much! Do you have faith in me? ... No? You don't? Well, geez! Way to be supportive. I think I'm going to cry, and it's all your fault. Great. I can't do it. I can't finish the app. You'll all have to live without the last quarter of this personality. ... Kidding! I've got five more points to go and about seven hundred to eight hundred words to go. So let's get started for one last time, shall we? Stubborn~! Oh, yes, this boy is a very stubborn one indeed~! Once he's made up his mind, it'll take a heard of Taurous, one Blitzle, a Ditto, and Gold Demien to change his mind. You can threaten, bribe, and coax all you want, but, chances are, he's going to have his way whether you want to or not. Okay, so, let's say that he's on some mission with other people - since, you know, I need a lot more words to add to this certain part of this certain personality. He'll come up with some fancy way of going about their fancy little mission and everyone'll go along with it... until someone finds a flaw in the plan. Yeah, you think that he's just going to go and change his plans because it's not absolutely perfect? Ha! Don't make me laugh! There'll be a lot of arguing, then him going along with his own plan, failing miserably, then regretting nothing afterward. Yeah, that's pretty much how it goes. Every single time, too. Okay, what's next? Hm, let's see... Erm... Oh, yes! That's it! Resentful! Forgive and forget, right? That line that some people can follow while others can't? Well, our cute little Johto canon is one of those other people who can't! You wrong him once and he won't every forgive you until he's gotten revenge. An eye for an eye is basically his motto, though he never speaks of any mottos or what his own may very well be... And, even then, after he's gotten revenge, whoever the person was that wronged him gets thrown onto the ever growing list of people that he hates and wishes were dead. This list has tens and tens of people on it... And, of course, there's the many, many members of Team Rocket. Compared to the five or so people he can honestly respect or could be concidered his "friends", that's a really long list. Crazy, huh? But that's not the point. However, before we go on to point numero tres, I'm going to bring up something that I talked about not long before. You know, in the stubborn trait? Ha! Not even in the paragraph above this! Anyway, you know that whole mission scenario? Well, there's another thing we can take from that. Silver is very... controlling. After years of being taught how to lead people, he's grown to be someone who unconciously acts high, mighty, and superior to those around him. He's good at leading people, don't get me wrong - those years of training have paid off - but he's so used to ordering people around that, sometimes, when he really doesn't need to, he can come off as a bit bosy and controlling of the other people around him. This can get a little annoying to other people, as you can probably imagine. It's not like he tries to do it - you can tell him he's being rather bosy and he'll give you a blank look or a glare that makes him look as though he's got no idea what you're talking about - but he does it so much that it's noticable to everyone else. Putting that aside, we're moving on to his mistrusting personality. Yeah, that's right. As you probably have already guessed, this ginger has a lot of trouble putting his trust in other people. Okay, I'm going to bring up something else I talked about not long ago. That list of people he respects as apposed to the list of people he hates and wishes had never been brought onto the world in the first place. Yeah, there are only five or so people on the list we're talking about right now. Gold and Crystal are really the only people he can trust with anything - not even the people who have earned his respect can say they've also earned his trust. But, even then, his secretive personality and feeling that he has to do everything by himself often leads him to struggle to even have faith in his fellow Johto trainers at times. But, you know... maybe that'll all change someday. Someday... Okay, we're onto the very last personality trait. Can you wait? Oh, I know! Neither can I! He's... selfish. Yeah, the moment of truth, the one we've all been waiting for is that he's... selfish. Another no brainer. Sharing? Ha! He wouldn't share a feast with a starving man if it came right down to it. He takes pride in the things he's earned with his hard work and will believe that those who have not worked to earn something don't deserve it at all. That's really the basis of his life. Woot, woot. Okay, I'm done with this personality. Can you believe? I'm finally done. Over four thousand words, and I'm finally done. ... And I thought Lyra's personality was long... Okay, bye ya'll~!

HISTORY;;

This is where Leap gets serious. ... Sort of.

[ A Legacy is Born ]

It was about two years into his reign that he realized that he wouldn't live forever.

Team Rocket. To original. The most evil. The best. They had caused trouble all over the region of Kanto, taking over important businesses, contantly recruiting new members into their ranks, and commit common crimes everywhere from Viridian City to Lavendar Town. They were hated by the league and by the public, yet they were powerful enough to stand their ground against anyone who tried to stop them. No one had ever thought to confront the organization head on and take them out one by one - it seemed to far fetched to ever work. And their leader, Giovanni Steele, stood in front of it all, watching as chaos unfolded and plotting out his future evil deeds. To the public, he was a menace. To the members of Team Rocket, he was the greatest mastermind that ever lived.

And maybe he was.

But he couldn't live forever.

So, when he died, what would become of his beloved organization? Would it crumble to the ground with it's members scattering every which way? Perhaps someone would take over in his place, but then what would happen? Perhaps that person would issue changes, and Team Rocket would no longer be what it was meant to be. Surely, there had to be a replacement who the black-haired man could trust. Someone in his organization... anyone. There were a few who would follow the man to the end of the earth, but they were certainly not leader material. Those who would be decent leaders either did have enough loyalty to the man in order to made them canidates or had to different a point of view. Things were looking bleak.

And then a thought occured to him.

What better a leader would there be then one that shared his blood?

No one knew who the mother was, as neither he nor she would ever say. However, when a boy with a head of fire was born, speculations that it was a woman by the name of Arianna who held a high ranking position in the very organization flew around like flies. Reguardless of who the mother was, however, a child had been born to the same name as their leader and was destined to be the next leader of Team Rocket.

Or, at least, so the people thought.

[ Seculsion ]

Silver admired Giovanni.

Everything about the man, the young boy looked up to. His authoritive tone of voice, the way he could make people do whatever he wanted by just a flick of his wrist, the way that he was not only leader of the most notorious criminal organization in the land, but also the most powerful of all gym leaders. Everything. Though the boy rarely got to see his father, from all of the stories he'd heard, he decided from a very young age that, when he grew older, he wanted to be just like him.

Socializing with other children was not allowed. From a very young age, the red-haired child was forced to stay at the Rocket base all day and all night where he was to be trained in the art of Pokemon battles and the basics of doing such things as leading an organization. He never really understood why when he was younger, but, because it was what he was told to do and he was told never to question orders, he did exactly as told.

However, part of him always had wanted to be able to go into the outside world.

Day after day, month after month, year after year Silver stayed in that hideout and not once had he been allowed to leave. He was roughly five years of age when his curiosity got the better of him and he began to vocalize his longing to see the outside world. This greatly anger the Rocket put in charge of him, however. The fragile boy was given a warning to never to speak of going outside ever again. Though slightly intimidated, his dream to leave the bleak building that was the Team Rocket base never wavered and he began devising a plan to escape, if only for a short while.

Even when he was younger, Silver must have been a little to bright for his own good. Because, when he was roughly six years of age, he managed to slip through the base unnoticed and break out. And the Kanto region was wonderful. All of the stories of the lush green world could never compare to the real thing. For the remainder of the day, the boy ran through the streets of the nearby town - the name, he would never know - without a care in the world. Well, that was, until the sun has long ago set behind the horizon and the path home escaped him mind. Lost and all alone, the ginger wandered here and there, sobbing as he went, wondering if he would ever find his way home.

Well, of course, he did.

It may have taken a few hours to notice the young master's absense, and a couple more to actually find him, but, eventually, a small team of Rockets found him cowering in an alley way in the dead of night. Upon being brought home, he was serverely punished, but the boy didn't care. He'd seen the outside world, and that was all that had mattered. Of course, after the whole incident, he was watched closer then ever, but the child managed to to device many, more complicated schemes to escape.

He made a note to not get lost again.

[ Incomprehensible ]

Over the next four years, Silver proved to be smart beyond his years. Maybe it was the fact that he was surrounded by mastermind criminals who taught him how to be as smart and devious as they. Maybe it was because, like his father, he was just naturally smart. Whatever the reason, it was true. Those escape plans to get away from the base when he was younger were no fluke. The sweet and innocent boy he'd been began to become more and more like the hot tempered, cold male we all know now. He still admired his father, who he grew more like with every passing day, and was excited to discover that he would, in fact, take his father's place when the time came.

However, when the silver-eyed boy reached the age of seven, there was a... complication.

A young boy, only three years older then himself had been tormenting the organization, taking down grunts, foiling their plans, and ruining his father's plans of domination. None of this really bothered him, as he knew that the black-haired man who ran the organization would always wind up on top. The man was skilled. He was strong.

Except things didn't work out the way the seven-year-old had intended.

At the Team Rocket base underneath the Celadon City Game Corner, the ground-type user met his first defeat in years. That ten-year-old, along with two of his friends had successfully defeated all of the man's Pokemon. Pure stroke of luck, the young Silver thought. Only it wasn't luck. It's couldn't have been. Because that boy beat the man again at his very own gym. With the imfamous Team Rocket disbanded for what seemed like good, the red-haired boy's dreams were shattered.s

Two years passed by, and still the boy grew smarter and smarter. Of course, with his increasing intellegance, he started to ponder more and more about the fall of his father's beloved organization. Perhaps the man was not as powerful as he'd thought. Perhaps the man was weak. So much chaos in the organization because their leader was weak. Days passed, and the idea that weakness was what caused the downfall of such an organization appealed to him more and more as he thought about it.

When he voiced these thoughts to his father, the man grew angry with him, telling him that, even though Team Rocket was not around then, when they returned, they would reign over the land once more. This lead to a large arguement - probably the first they had ever had, guessing as the ginger saw very few of his father during his days in the Rocket base. It ended with the boy storming off, exclaiming that he would not end up like the weak man the ground-type user had become.

When he returned to that place hours later, the man had disappeared.

He hasn't seen him since.

[ Home Sweet Home ]

This was his justification:

Going up and asking for things was a sign of weakness. Strong people earned what they got, not expect them to show up on a silver platter. Surely, if Professor Elm knew this was what was going on through his head during the robbery, maybe he woouldn't have been so upset that his Totodile had been stolen. Of course, Silver tried to act as though he could care less about what others thought about him (since he really, deep down, DOES care what others think of him... but he'll never show it in public), so he didn't dwell on the Professor's opinion of him. All he cared about was the fact that he now had one of the rare starters of Johto.

Silver had devised this plan back when he, esentially, ran away from home. If he could conquer the Pokemon League, maybe he could prove that he was just as strong if not moreso then his failure of a father. Of course, he'd only just stolen that Totodile when he came across them. Gold and Crystal, two friends from the town of New Bark who had been gifted the other two starters from the Professor. The red-head, trying to test out the skill of his new Pokemon, challenged the boy to a battle, only to lose. It was at this moment that he declared the raven-haired trainer, Gold, his rival and swore to defeat him.

When Team Rocket, lead by one of it's former members, Archer, showed it's face in the Johto region, he grew furious, also swearing to tear down the organization in his path to power. Along the way, he found that the two nuisenses he'd met all the way in New Bark Town were also trying to take down the organization. Eventually, he decided to tag along with them and, together, the three sent the revived to it's knees.

[ Where We Stand Now ]

It's been a while since the incident in Johto - over five years already - but Silver has taken up his quest to become stronger once more in the Lyeant region.

And, yeah. That's... it. XD
