Scott Takaguchi

2. How old are you? When is your birthday?
18. I was born July 25.

really patriotic to either country.

4. Who are/were your parents? (Names, occupations, personalities,
etc.)
My father was Hiromi Takaguchi. He was the past rain god, but, from

jackass; basically, he was Yukito. My mom was a beautiful woman named
Julia Winston. She...she was amazing. I love her dearly.

Not biologically, but all the other gods are, in a way, my siblings.
Except Yukito, they're pretty great.

cups of coffee a day.

19. How often do you bathe? Do you wear perfumes?
If by bathe you mean "wash up" then everyday, but if by bathe you mean
"immerse oneself in water" then rarely. I usually only bathe in that
sense when I'm at Master's house.
I do not wear perfume, nor do I wear cologne. My natural scent is
that of rain - why cover that up?

my being.
Seeing James sad makes me sad; seeing him happy makes me happy. He's
the most important person to me.

45. Do you think people are basically good or basically evil?
People are basically good. They just do stupid things sometimes.

46. What are your views on politics? Religion? Sex?
I'm actually a little conservative. However, I think religion,

off.
As for sex, I think you should love the person you're having it with.
Doing it for any other reason is unnatural and wrong.

One should never do any of them. However, there are times when
killing someone may be the only option left in order to survive.

believe. If you don't agree, then we shall agree to disagree.

It's a necessity, but other things are more worth the attention.

do?
Rape.

them unless their beliefs and opinions go against my deepest moral
codes.

I've learned to block my feelings - letting no one in. James is
actually slowly breaking the walls down...

56. Do you have any biases or prejudices?
I hate snow. I hate Yukito.


Dealing With Others

57. Who is the most important person in your life, and why?
James. He is my soul mate.

58. Who is the person you respect the most? Despise the most? Why?
I respect Lance the most since he is the one who is always the most
cool headed and can generally give an answer to whatever is bothering
you, or at least comfort you in hard times.

59. Do you have a significant other? Who?
James. I'm pretty sure we're boyfriends now.

60. Do you have a lot of friends? Who is your best friend?
No. I'm not exactly friendly. However, James would be my best
friend, followed by Lance, Mitch, and Quince. Akito I would also
consider a friend - or at least as close as any of Master's servants
get.

61. How do you relate to members of the same race? Class? Sex?
I'm generally polite and civil to everybody.

62. How do you relate to members of a different race? Class? Sex?
See above. Civility and common decency will get you far in life.

63. Have you ever been in love? If so, describe what happened.
Yes. I'm in love with James. I don't know how, but he somehow became
very important to me. I didn't notice until I was in love with him
that I was falling. One day, I realized that I didn't think I could
live without him.

64. What do you look for in a potential lover?
Personality is the most important thing.

65. How close are you to your family?
My parents are dead. I'm close with most of my fellow gods, but I'm
not on very good terms with Master or many of his servants.

66. Do you want a marriage, family, and/or children?
It's impossible for me to marry the one I love, so I will do without
marriage to be with him. He is all the family I need - and most
likely the only child too!

67. Do you tend to argue with people, or avoid conflict?
Generally, I'll let things be. But, with Yukito I'll go as far as I
need for him to know that I hate him.

68. Are you a listener or a talker?
Listener.

69. How long does it usually take for you to trust others?
A long while. I don't let most people in.

70. Do you hold grudges?
Yes.

71. Do you tend to take on leadership roles in social situations?
If Lance is around - no. If not, then usually yes.

72. Do you like interacting with large groups of people?
No. I don't like having many people around.

73. How well do you express yourself?
Unfortunately, not very well.

74. How quickly do you judge others?
Almost instantaneously.

75. Do you care what others think of you?
Not particularly.

76. Do you have any enemies? How or why are they your enemy?
Yukito. Ever since we were kids I've hated him. I don't think I will
ever like him.


Personal Taste and Opinions

77. What is your favorite pastime? Color? Food? Possession?
I enjoy reading and studying. My favorite color is blue. Food is
hamburgers or steaks. Possession would be the night shirt I put James
in when he was chilled from being in the rain.

78. What are your preferences in arts and/or entertainment?
I enjoy listening to music - any kind, but mostly classical - and
reading. I dislike TV, and I don't even own one.
As for arts, I prefer the classical arts.

79. Do you smoke, drink, go whoring, or use drugs? Why or why not?
No, but I do drink occasionally. I don't because they hold nothing of
interest to me, and I drink because of Yukito.

80. How do you spend a typical Saturday night?
On the couch reading, talking to James, or both.

81. What is your most cherished fantasy?
Having James beside me for the rest of our lives. The thought of
waking up to him every morning is amazing.

82. How long is your attention span?
Rather long...unless you're Yukito and then I shut you out
immediately.

83. Do you laugh a lot? What do you find funny?
No. Not usually. I find few things funny enough to laugh.

84. Is there anything that shocks or offends you? If so, what?
Yukito.

85. How do you deal with stress?
I read or listen to music.

I enjoy the arts, not make them.

Yes.
Not usually.

88. Are you spontaneous, or do you always need to have a plan?
I usually have a plan.

My knowledge, and power as a god. My inability to trust.

92. Are you generally introverted or extroverted?
Introverted.

93. Do you like yourself?
Yes.

94. Do you have a daily routine? How do you feel if your day is
interrupted?
Yes. It really depends on who is interrupting my routine. For most
people, it's just a slight aggravation, but if it's Yukito, then I'm
rather annoyed...angry even.

Your lifetime?

In 5 years, I hope to be on my way to a medical degree. In 10 years,
either in residency, or a doctor. In 20, a head doctor sharing a
house or loft with James.

Beside James, knowing that James will be happy and safe in the future.

your death?
I just want James to remember me.
