Re: Syndicate Rank Tryouts!
A soft wind blows across the misty clearing, a tall figure stands in the distance. As you look at the figure, a strange force compels you to approach it; it looks so weirdly soft, so comforting, so sweet.
A soft tune starts playing in the distance; you recognise it from that one song.
"Hush, my loves, now don't you lie"
The closer you get to the figure, the less you see. The fog only seems to grow thicker and thicker, until you have to reach out with your arms to ensure your safe walking. Where did the figure go?
"If you think your words aren't nice
Better close your mouth, shut your lips real tight"
All of a sudden, you find yourself face to face with something. It has a soft look, a sweet smile... The figure from before. Where did it appear from so suddenly? But you receive no answer as you look up at its lanky figure. The figure silently looks down at you.
"Secrets aren't safe, keep them to yourself
To yourself, and nobody else"
The more you look at the figure's sweet smile, the more of an unsettling feeling you get. She - they? looks so innocent and kind as they watch you with soft eyes, but those soft eyes hold a sharp edge you can't quite pinpoint.
"Hush, my loves, now don't you lie
I might look sweet but I don't play nice"
The unsettling feeling festers as the figure begins to pace, pace with surprising grace, but pace around you. She watches you from all side, as if she were committing your every trait to memory. They do nothing else, only watch, smile sweetly and walk. And yet, you strangely feel like a puppet partaking in some silly game - her game.
xx Applying for... Healer.
xx Sweets is a graceful and lanky feline full of more questions than answers. Little is known about who she truly is, when she does and doesn't speak the truth. Lies come from her like water from a waterfall and rarely is she tongue tied, it's why most if not all take her words for truth. While Sweets would be an ideal candidate for Nightwalker, she feels it'd be boring to join a clan; for now, she would much rather watch everything unfold around this new group - and without getting her paws dirty. They hold great importance to proper manners and being well behaved, they could hardly dirty their paws with constant arduous groundwork or another's blood; she'd rather have someone else handle her business for her. And that's why they'd be quite pleased as a healer - while she wouldn't be able to avoid dirtying her paws, that kind of dirtying must then simply one of their many sacrifices to watch this little 'game' unfold; she's been so terribly bored. They feel it's a more fitting job for themselves; one wherein she doesn't require to be constantly on watch/ready to fight and can easily gather information from her peers by idle small talk during sessions. And, truthfully, it would be quite classy to know how to treat that bugging booboo.
xx Backup application... [None Found].

"I'm scared of what's inside my head, what's inside my soul
I feel like I'm running but getting nowhere
Fear is suffocating me, I can't breathe
I feel like I'm drowning, I'm sinking deeper
White light fades to red, as I enter the city of the dead"
xx Raised to fight as an intricate art; taught to kill, once upon a time long ago.
xx Numb little bug; her emotions exist in subconscious only. Her ability to remain unfazed is unparalleled.
xx Would rather be crushed than see her family go or turn their backs to her. Everything she does, is with their presumed opinions in the back of her mind.
xx A sensitive young cat in actuality; suppressed sympathy and care, her outer layer is cold, but her heart yearns for an escape.
xx Applying for... Fang.
xx Her father began teaching her to fight and defend herself before she could even properly walk, which only grew in difficulty and challenge by the day. Viper is lean and swift, hence part of the name; she's been thoroughly trained for the biggest part of her life. Now, she'd like to take on that position not only because of her skill, but also because she believes that's what the family approve of most. Especially with her cousin around too, she cannot take a wrong step. Frankly, her knowledge is little about the clans - she is here because of Falcon, and because she thought the family might approve.
xx Backup application... Healer or None.
xx Under her cold and, at times, near ruthless shell, she in truth is much softer, kinder. While she'd fear they would disapprove, Viper remains more compassionate and might find some form of peace in healing. While she may envy a bit those who do, she would be perfectly fine and pleasant being in no specific rank as well.
