CONTACT/TEAM PREFERENCES

A comment separate from your app with your name, email, and team preferences. Making it a separate comment lets us keep it screened, thus keeping your team preferences private.

For the time zone field, feel free to make a note if working bizarre hours makes you effectively on a different time zone than stated.

"Team preferences" is a catch-all field for any thoughts you might have regarding your character's placement. For example, you might want a team that will put up with your character's sociopathy, or has a certain "feel" to it, or is friendly to your time zone, or maybe you don't think your character looks good in orange, and so on! This is also the spot to let us know if there are teams you DON'T want to be on. While you're not required to put anything here, don't say you have no preference unless you really, honestly have NOTHING to say on the subject! If you've already apped and realized you'd forgotten something? Make another comment!

Team Preferences: Team with hilarious people. PROBABLY THOR SINCE HE’S PROBABLY GETTING APPED??? Though if there’s an Adorable But Useless team I can go there, so long as it is not also full of moeblobs.

Character Name: Darcy Lewis
Canon: Thor, 2011 movie
Reference Link: http://marvel-movies.wikia.com/wiki/Darcy_Lewis bam. Wiki link.

Character History: Darcy doesn’t get a ton of backstory, as she is the movie’s token “normal girl.” We know she is a political science major, and presumably not a native of New Mexico. Darcy Lewis has no backstory. Darcy Lewis needs no backstory.

She was an intern for on Jane Foster, who’s work led her to be one of the first to discover the banished Asguardian Prince, Thor Odinson when he fell to Earth, and also to be kinda sorta involved with the war for the throne of the Realm Eternal, blah blah, whatever, they had a lot of fancy words that Darcy couldn’t understand and kind of talked about honor a lot which was confusing but also they were all really good looking? And then they fought a robot I guess? Honestly she wasn’t paying much attention and probably couldn’t tell you the plot of her own canon if you asked her.

Personality: Darcy Lewis is probably not a person who belongs in an action movie about the fate of the cosmos. Too bad, because she is here anyway, because she needs the work study credits, so you can deal with it. She’s way more interested in the contents of her iPod than in epic struggles for the nine realms, and when such struggles happen around her she is mostly concerned with the hotness of the participants and also how hard all their names are to pronounce. (Usually they’re really, really hard to pronounce.) Honestly? She doesn’t get this whole super-dimensional god-being thing that’s going on here, and doesn’t reeeeally care to. There’s also not a lot that can get her bogged down or wigged out herself. Yeah, all the extra-dimensional god-dudes stuff doesn’t make sense, but that doesn’t mean it’s not hilarious, and should be treated as such, and posted about to Facebook as quickly as possible.

But despite her casualness (and seeming lack of common sense) she’s by no means incompetent. She’s much sharper than she looks: able to spot anomalies and patterns faster than anyone around her, even people who have made their careers of seeking such things. She’s also got good instincts and plenty of huevos; the girl is perfectly willing to tase a god if he’s wigging out too hard. On the other hand, all that smartness means that she’s awesome at having the good sense to run away from danger and not directly into it. Practicality is awesome.

She’s not the first person you’d want at your side when facing down fire-breathing sentry-golems. Honestly, she’s not in the first fifty. But if she just so happens to be there, well, she’ll face it with gumption and a good attitude.

Just don’t ask her to pronounce Mjolnir.

01. If given a choice, what would you like to be called?

Darcy, yo. “Miss Lewis” kind of gives that I’m-just-being-polite-because-not-so-secretly-I’m-a-douche vibe.

02. Do you require socks to be part of your uniform?

Yes? Obviously? Unless like, we’re getting sandals. Then that’s gross. Wait, why are we wearing uniforms? Is this a government thing? I don’t do well with government things. I feel all oppressed and junk.

03. Not including mandatory periods of silence, what is the longest you have gone without talking?

What’s the longest Lady Gaga song? Because that’s probably how long.

04. Are you plagued by suspicions that other people, including coworkers and relatives, may be doing things behind your back that will hurt you?

OK, look, I didn’t really want to get into this, but this one professor I had Sophomore year had this spectacular hate boner for me. He just couldn’t take that I was preaching the truth about post-modern objectivist philosophy. The ability to talk about that crap as an ~unbiased, objective observer~ is a hella privileged position. What was I supposed to do? Let him talk about Ayn Rand like her turds don’t stink? Because let me assure you, they do stink. They stink like poop. Anyway he gave me a B- which was way unwarranted. What a jerk, right?

05. Other than a large egret, what wild animal would you like to domesticate?

OMG. Armadillos for sure.

06. Are you functionally incapacitated by witnessing other people's misery?

Naw, we call that Finals Week and it’s hilarious.

07. What is your favorite flatware for, purely as an example, eating cake?

Sporks! Wait, are spoks a flatware? Crap, they totally can’t be flatware due to their lack of flatness. Crap crap crap.

08. Do you trust yourself?

Whoah. That’s kind of a deep question. I guess, if I really thought about it. Like. Maybe?

09. Please list a crime that only you would know that you have committed.

I, uh, I smoked pot once, but I totally didn’t inhale!

10. If you disappeared tomorrow would anyone miss you?

Yyyyes? Wait. Definitely yes! There’s total hunkomatic gods that would be pissed to the max. He would hammer you into next week, only not in a sexy way! Like in a Meownow to the FACE way. Disappearing me is a super bad idea! I’m warning you!
