All right, then. The rules for adopting cannons are simple. In this thread, post which character you would like to adopt, why you would like to adopt him or her, and a short example post using the character you would like. (And by short, I mean at least two paragraphs. You don't need to go overboard, but your chances sharply increase if you don't go underboard, either. =P) After you've been approved--and it won't take long--you'll be given permission to post a full character profile for that character.

Hi!
I'm Hitoban no Fokkusu.
I'd like to play Simone Dubois, if that's okay. I want to adopt her because 1)I'm a redhead too, 2)I love faeries, and 3) I think I could play her very well because she looks as if she'd be just like me. ^^;
Example post:
"Oh I'm so bored!" Simone crossed her arms across her chest, plopped down upon the grass, and sighed. Where's a human when you need one? She ran a hand through her fire red hair and shook it out. Her autumn leaf wings twitched, just itching to fly away. Suddenly she heard a leaf crunch and she jump up into a nearby tree, a tiny jingle escaping her wings as they aided her into the leaves, hiding her well. She peered out into the clearing and saw a human boy, looking hopelessly lost.
Oh what perfect timing! Just when she had nothing to do a boy came along for her to play with! She giggled and poked her head back into the leaves just as he looked at her. Her wings tinkled softly as she dropped to the ground on the other side of the tree, then walked out the other side. She still looked the same as she always did, but to this boy she looked like a regular fair-skinned, red headed girl in a dress made of dead leaves. That part might be a little strange, but that's alright. She smiled at him and looked out of the corner of her hazel (appearing) eyes at him. He was drawn into her trap instantly, drawn to her natural good looks. She circled him, bare feet dancing a silent melody to him.
As part of the summer court, she felt it necessary to be at least a little nice to the poor boy. She spoke, lyrics soft and sweet, like a song ringing in his little human ears.
"Come boy. What is your name?"
He blinked and looked at her again and she turned her head the other way, now looking at him. He managed to stammer out some human boy name that she spoke and then instantly forgot.
"Come Steve, and I will lead you away."
Where she was leading him would not be told, but she was indeed leading him away. She walked in front of him, slender feet dancing one after the other, walking backwards. She extended one slim finger and touched his face, then curled it and let it go twice, beckoning him to follow her. Her name he asked?
“Bella, I don’t want you to come with me.” There was a pause as I repeated the words in my head a few times, sifting through them for their real intent. “You…don’t…want me?” I tried out the words, confused by the way they sounded in that order. "No."
Kylie here! I'd like to play Sarafina Telford, please.
My reasons are... well, first of all, I saw her and was like "Wow, sounds like me". I don't mean to brag, but I'm pretty fast, and I love to run. I'm also soft spoken, and a lot of the characters I play are like Sarafina. Also... well, I love Emily Browning, and I use her a lot in rp's.
Since only a few things are given in her character description personality wise, I'm guessing I have to come up with the rest, which I shall do... if you don't like something, tell me, and I'll fix it immediately.
RP Example
Sarafina watched the scene outside the frosted glass window, boredly. She'd been doing a lot of things "boredly" lately. All the dancing and drinking was getting to be a bit of a bother. She was bored with humans, bored with drinking, just... bored. And she wasn't sure what else she'd like to do. She wandered the streets every now and then, watching humans interact, but didn't bother them.
All of the other faeries thought she was wierd for it, since they all considered humans playtoys. She, on the other hand, thought they were rather... interesting. They lead lives just like them. Drama, parties, love... well, it was all there. Playthings didn't do things like that...
Sitting up, she gracefully walked over to her bookshelf, rearranging them in a neater fashion, just as something to do. Her eyes met a half scribbled on paper and pen, but unlike usual, she didn't pick it up. She's lost her muse, terribly, and actually hadn't written for weeks. Her father constantly asked what was wrong, as did her mother, but her answer was always "I'm fine". "I'm bored" had gotten a little juvinile for her.
Walking over to the paper, she picked it up, started reading it, and frowned. She ripped it in two, and loved the sound, so she ripped it into fours, eights, until she could rip it no more and she held tiny pieces of paper in her hand that resembled snow. She remembered her love for snow, and gazed longingly out the window. "If only father would let me go outside..." she said to herself, sadly. She knew it would never be allowed. She was stuck in her room for sneaking out, already...
