PERSONALITY

IMPISH “ This female always has a grin or smirk plastered to her face, no matter the mood she’s in. She’s always running around the school, even while doing homework, and she’s amused by seeing others with their stupidity and juvenile situation – she often having a hard time keeping a laugh emitting from her throat. Something else that stems from this is her uncanny ability to plot. Give her five minutes and she’ll have an elaborate plan that one would think she’d spent hours on.”

IMPASSIVE " To strangers, she gives the appearance of an independent person that doesn’t back down, obviously one who can clearly find the way on her own. She is cold, collected, and calm in when she’s dealing with school. She does love being cruel though to those who try and harass her. Making fun of others and fools of others with their own words is her highest priority, and the greatest fun she has ever enjoyed. She does have an angry side, however. When irritated, Mackie shows a side that some have never seen – but it might described as irrational; however, her actions in such a state remain completely detailed, and sometimes very well thought out."

PERSUASIVE " Mackie has a thing for language, a way with words, a gift for the gab. She knows what to say and when to say it, her vocabulary is little less and little more then extremely varied. She is charismatic and that has a lot to do with the way she speaks to a person, she uses this ability with words to get what she wants. Be it secrets or talking her way out of situations, Mackie knows how to manipulate with words. She is sarcastic and she thinks on her feet, as the situation comes at her. She also has a stinging humor, comments being cynical on purpose, but other that, her sense of humor is near beyond hilarious."

LOYAL " She would not think twice about giving her life for a fellow friend. And this includes putting herself on the line for a close friend or a family member. If this means getting injured defending someone, she will do it. It doesn’t matter the cost. As long as they are safe. When Mackie gives her word, she seriously gives it. It doesn’t matter if it’s a matter of paying back a small bit of change or having someone’s back for the most asinine of things. She will keep it, no matter the cost to herself. If she loses friends because of it, she will hurt, but she would rather lose friends than break a promise. Breaking a promise, she’s done once, and she’ll never do it again as she feels enough disappoint for doing it as it’s going against how her father has raised her.."

ACTIVE " Mackie is seen working out in some way shape or form when she’s not with friends or doing her work .She can’t stand sitting still, and she uses this to her advantage by going on runs out and about, weightlifting, and the obvious. It keeps her in shape, and she loves it. She’s always striving to improve herself, and she has a good self image – she’s proud of what she’s worked for and she’s not going to stop until the day she dies. She takes care of herself, which often translates in getting her friends to come work out with her – yes. This includes five in the morning wake up calls to get your ass up."

EXTROVERT " She loves instigating group conversations over pretty much anything, and yet, She can do this for hours. She’s not drained by social interaction. She loves spending time in groups rather than one on one, and she’s very easy to get to know. She doesn’t tell everyone everything, but she keeps his secrets hidden for good reason. She’s pretty chameleonic, blending into situations but never losing her confidence in them no matter what’s going on. She keeps a level head, and she often subtly competes for the spotlight, but he’s no attention-whore.”

LEADER “Mackie has a very Alpha personality – it shows in her group of friends. She’s not afraid to share leading with anyone, but she’s always the first to take it. Ten times out of ten, Mackie is the one heading a group with anything that she’s doing. She considers all options and roads when she’s planning, even if it seems a little unorthodox or even just plain odd. Her way with words enables her to sway others towards her cause, and she often plays Devil’s Advocate in arguments because it amuses her. She sees both sides of a argument more times than not, and if she doesn’t, she’ll ask. To be a good leader, to Mackie, you must understand and help your people.”

PERFECTIONIST “She doesn’t understand why people screw around and don’t work hard – when you have the levels and expectations before you, why not work better than that? She sticks to her codes of ethics, as it’s how she just is. Her work ethic is as strong as or even strong as her moral code. With ethics, she’s literally an unbudgeable force. She’ll listen to you, but nine times out of ten, she will go with her gut instinct rather than someone else. The only exception to this personal rule are people who have visible and evident more experience than her. This wasn’t a problem while she was growing up, as she knows how to obey orders given. However, Mackie has trouble trusting others. It's generally quite hard to gain her trust, as she believes that people have to earn her trust. Without that trust as a foundation, she can be judgmental and coarse.”

HISTORY

“When my brother was seven or so, my oh-so dear little sister me was born. Growing up was perfectly.. fine? I don’t know if you could really consider it fine. Mama and Father, well, were the oddest marriage. Both went to the same school, but were total and polar opposites – both pure though. Mama, or Ana as Father referred to her, was a Russian – an ice bitch as we call it, that woman has the sharpest mind I’ve ever seen. Literally, anything I had to ask about things, she knew the answer. And if she didn’t? Well, I can’t exactly remember any of the times that it ever happened. She's gone now though. And good fucking riddance. Whenever we were home, I’d either be reading, learning to play an instrument, learn a language or playing sports. It was somewhat interesting to see his reaction to being enthralled by subjects such as those. He and I didn’t always see eye to eye, but that was our competitive nature showing. He always wanted to be the best, and it was beyond entertaining. Due to him, I have a hero complex in a way – I always being raised to be the type to be defending others whenever it was the right thing to do.

I moved to New York when I was like, what, ten or twelve? Thirteen? Fuck if I know the reason as to why we really moved. I got sick on the boat ride over to America. That's all I really even remember. Sean and I moved with our Papa, and that was that. Ana didn't come. She stayed. I remember getting the nickname Mackie within the first year of being in America. Zeke. I'm still going to kill that kid one day. Anyways. I'm still here, and that's what matters, right? Very alive and kicking.
