TEN THINGS YOU DIDNT KNOW

Okay so here's the deal. I'm bored, and want to write down some things I need to remember about my characters. But why post these where no one will see, I asked myself. So.

MEME!

RULES

1. Post with your character
2. Post ten things that you believe are true about your character - yes, go ahead and headcanon this right on up, I personally like that sort of thing.
3. observe others
4. relish information


It is very simple and fun for everyon's edification! Likewise we can learn more about new characters we have round these parts, and be happy.

RIP

Headcanoooon.

1. Rip isn't her birth name; she legally changed it.
2. If she ever gave them a chance, she would probably fall in love with the works of Rogers and Hammerstein, Stephen Sondheim, and Andrew Lloyd Webber. But since they are filthy Americans and Englishmen, she never will.
3. The real reason Derek the dog exists is because she hates being/living alone, after spending so many years in the close confines of an army.
4. She possesses a natural sympathy and understanding for those who have known war.
5. Her immediate attachment to Megatron is the result of a vulnerable uncertainty where she can't function or has difficulty in making decisions for herself; she'll always look for a respectable commanding officer because not doing so is a serious violation of her comfort zone. It's also the reason why she has trouble accepting the Angelii idea.
6. Her nightmares are typically those involving Alucard; an endless black void, red eyes staring back at her from all sides, feeling haunted and afraid.
7. Despite dying three times and clearly witnessing life after death, Rip is a firm atheist. Her reasoning is that if there was a God, then due to all the suffering in the world he'd have to be very much like the Major, and if he were like the Major, then there would be no life left, period.
8. Deep, deep, deep down, she loathes herself and the monster she knows she is.
9. After having a cheeseburger for the first time, it's a struggle and a half to get used to blood once more.
10. She knows she doesn't deserve happiness, but strives to claim it for herself anyway.
