Before anything else, Undead, try to extend your "impressions" as I mentioned at the very start of the thread and please, try to keep this thread (somewhat) serious. Thank you.
I have some doubts people are quickly willing to write something about someone they don't like. As simple-minded as I may be, I'll write about everything, but will only do one (or two) at a time. In a matter of saying only, of course.
Therefore, I will do James.
If anything looks offending, it is not intentional.
Well, for starters, we know James is a guy and probably named 'James', I pay little questions to that, if you don't mind.
Without too much trouble, his looks aren't too awful either. Though it depends a bit on the taste of people, I guess.
If I recall, James said that he was thirteen years old, though I don't find it very surprising. I'm in general pretty bad in guessing ages, so I'm glad I remembered this. But even if he didn't say it, I probably could've guessed it as well. As counts for most of us, of course. But then again, guessing an age as thirteen is quite easy for me, as I am quite often finding myself in a conversation with someone around the same age.
James is the type of guy that has seen the more rougher side of life than most people around. Especially those young among us are not likely familiar with how his life is supposed to look like. Unfortunately for James though, he is also obviously underestimating the somewhat older ones among us and it hits me like he often believes that others cannot imagine what he experiences or experienced.
James is also quite sensitive when it comes to his own subjects and often and quickly comes to conclusions he is being attacked on a forum. That's not surprising seeing his hostile nature, but that's only logical too. In the place he grew up, hostility is only a part of life. Something I did not grow up with, but am familiar with nonetheless. It is clear to me that James quickly thinks that he can switch subjects to something he knows more of. But again comes the problem that he may underestimate others.
He also strikes me as the kind of person that does not have many
real friends. Perhaps crowded with other people, but I do not honestly believe that they could be considerd friends. Looking at the age, I do not believe it is really necessary to mention that most, if not all are guys.
In terms of potential, James is, or could be quite a smart guy. Though it is hard to say of someone you'll probably never meet, it is likely that he'll be smarter than I am when he reaches the age I am currently at. How could I know this? I compare his range of subjects to mine at that age and also his way of writing and comparing to the one of my own. Both to how I am now and how I was in the past. It's a little shame that most focus has been on violence more than logical reasons, though will probably be denied by himself.
Because of how you grew up, I doubt that you are really afraid of what might happen as fighting and pain is something quite common to you. Unfortunately, you somehow imagined that everyone is like that and often compares your own situations to others who do not live like you are.
Like I expect(ed) from Escurial, you are a proud guy and will not quickly "drop and die" as they call it. You do not like to be corrected or look up to your betters. Would that be a boss, an elder or just someone who happens to know it better than you do.
Many how do not live the way James live, will find his humor sickening as it often exists out of either violence or disrespect to something. Though I admit it may prove to be funny for many times, enough is enough sometimes.
I can't decide the fact if he is either in quite a good harmony with himself, or completely the opposite. I can't figure that out of all the information I have of him. But it's definitely one of the two. As he mentioned that he could easily look at someone being uh... 'tortured' (to say it in rough words) without making any necessary sounds come to me as being in a harmony with yourself. Yet he also mentioned several kinds of opposites before that make me doubt my decision.
As a last thing, I believe that James is well aware of who he is but I don't think he is aware of what he could be. But again, that falls back to intelligence I mentioned before. Though these are some comments you probably won't like yourself, James, but out of experience, I do not think you can deny them either. Even though you being thirteen, you are not acting like anything older. You also mentioned that you are willing to change, or you changed, something I can't remember right away which one of the two it was. I
personally have tried to prove the opposite of the well known quote: "You can't change in a single day", but I don't think I succeeded. My personality is still a bit inconsistent as it is, though that won't take too long anymore. Unfortunately, in your case, that won't change that easily.
Well, that's all I have to say. As poor as it may sound, I'll go to sleep now. This is probably most of my nightrest for the rest of the week, so my radio stays off today.
(as always, on a friday evening/night)
