Writing advice from a non-writer ✨writer✨

Keeping a character, well, in character, can be a challenge, regardless of whether they’re well-established in canon (ex: Ratchet in most continuities) or not so much (ex: Prime Soundwave).

One thing that’s helped me is identifying which “negative” emotion(s) said character operates from and how they respond to those emotions:

Fear

Anger

Shame

I know there are more, but these three seem to be at the core of individuals’ negative experiences.

Now, of course everyone experiences all three at some point in their lives. However, when one looks closely, it’s usually possible to identify which one or two come most easily—the primary motivators.

Some examples from TFP:

Megatron: Anger + Fear

Starscream: Shame + Fear

Soundwave: Unknown, but I’ve chosen Anger + Shame

Optimus: Anger + Shame

Ratchet: Fear + Anger

Arcee: Fear + Anger

Some from IDW:

Rodimus: Fear + Shame

Ultra Magnus: Anger + Fear

Drift: Anger + Shame

Swerve: Shame + Fear

Shockwave (pre-shadowplay): Fear + Shame

Prowl: Fear + Anger

And so on.

With some characters, especially antagonists and “neutrals,” it can be hard to tell which ones are in the lead unless they state their motivations outright, but here are a few I’ve identified:

Overlord: Anger + Shame

Tarn: Fear + Anger

Tyrest: Anger + Shame

Froid: Fear + Shame

Some of these may look a bit off, but that’s to be expected since I don’t just look at the primary motivating emotions, but also how they are responding to the emotion(s):

Are they so aware of it that they do their best to consciously push back against it?

Do they vacillate between repressing/denying the emotion and exploding/over-expressing?

Do they consistently overindulge in it/over-express it?

I’ll use IDW Rodimus as an example:

Fear: He fears being limited in some way, either by circumstances, others, or himself, and succumbing to the emptiness of life. He actively runs away from his fear by jumping at each new fun thing to avoid uncomfortable, dark feelings. (Actively pushes back)

Shame: He struggles with issues of self esteem. He doesn’t know love apart from a sense of admiration, so he takes every opportunity to make himself look good/accomplished to earn love while denying it. (Vacillates)

Anger: This may be a bit surprising considering his hotheaded nature, but I see this one as being his weakest motivator, just barely. It doesn’t seem to be his first response to everything like it is for someone like TFP Megs. He doesn’t rely on it as much. Rodimus only really gets angry when someone is trying to (1) limit his fun or (2) steal the spotlight. However, when he does get angry, he doesn’t hold back. He’s perfectly comfortable with the emotion. (Over-expresses)

With some characters like Rodimus who seem to be pretty balanced with all three, the order doesn’t matter as much and is fluid/inconsistent.

But usually, I can pick out which one(s) do and don’t have as much of an influence on a character’s behavior and go from there, which is all that matters to me when writing:

IDW Prowl doesn’t deal with Shame as much as he deals with Fear and Anger.

Cyberverse Soundwave deals with Anger far more than Fear or Shame.

Blades from Rescue Bots doesn’t struggle with Anger as much as Fear and Shame.

And so on.

—

Final notes:

A lot of this is inspired by my knowledge of Enneagram theory, but I put my own twist on it.

Theoretically, with some modifications, this same process of identification can be applied to sadness, joy, and other emotions that exist.

It’s good to keep in mind that characters, just like real people, don’t react the same way every time to specific emotions.

The goal is to identify the overall pattern of motivation + reaction combinations for each character and use those as anchoring points.

biography.

nothing much matters in bode akuna's story until shortly after his 20th birthday, because jedi padawan simply don't matter much. the day he became a jedi knight; that's the day his story began.

it began in the room of the high council, kneeling before his master as he was knighted before any who matter. he'd been training in hopes to find himself in combat somewhere: after all, that is what he's expected to do. fight. protect. what could possibly be the point of anything else?

infiltration. he'd heard the word then, still kneeling before the council. a shudder ran up along his spine that forced his head up. you'll report to the republic intelligence troops beginning tomorrow. few jedi were ever asked to report to republic intelligence. he should have felt honored, but all he felt at the time was a looming sense of dread.

as a spy for the republic, he reported directly to lank denvik. his work ranged from easy intelligence missions, to covert secret operations that existed on a need to know basis. because of this, his status as a jedi was kept mostly a secret among the halls of the greater community. it also meant that long before the purge, bode knew that order 66 was going to be the death of them all.

when the order for the purge went through, bode used every skill he'd ever learned to run as far and as fast as he could. he ditched his lightsaber for a pair of blasters and hid himself away in hopes that he could simply begin to blend into the crowd. two years after the purge, he found himself of birren -- the home planet of his soon to be wife tayala. the pair have a daughter, kata, and for a couple of years life is good. simple, and good.

kata is three when the inquisitors come. tayala knew his past; she knew that one day he may have to run fast and run hard. they'd promised each other they'd run together, but that never came to pass. rather than letting her husband face a brutal death, tayala sacrificed herself so bode could escape with kata in tow. the pair run fast and run hard with bode offering himself as a mercenary for hire in the deep recesses of the galaxy.

it could stay that way. not for kata's sake. she deserved better. even if that meant making a deal with a devil. you know what they say about the devil you know...

lank denvik had found himself a role as an officer in the imperial security bureau, which bode had found out through a close source. he offered himself to denvik, showing up with kata and looking for sanctuary. the job is his and kata is safe as long as he stays useful. she has toys, she has food, she has shelter. (tayala would furious with him, but he tells himself he's doing what's best for their little girl.) it seems he could do this for now: and then the stinger mantis crew and specifically jedi cal kestis reach the isb radar.

infiltrate the crew. find out what kestis is doing. (fall in love? certainly not in the plan.) locate anything else of interest. and when that thing of interest became a way to get kata to safety far away from the reach of imperial forces? well -- there's nothing more dangerous than a man who stop at nothing to protect his daughter.

NOTES:

the canon of jedi survivor fits in here to a certain extent. bode DOES relay information to denvik as he gets it because of the threat to kata's life, and he DOES lead the imperial forces and vader to jedha after locating the compass.

however, bode does NOT kill cordova. he doesn't stop cordova's death from happening, but he is not the one to actively do it. the only lives he takes in the fight at jedha are the ones in his way from getting the hell out of the base and getting back to nova garon.

when cal offers bode mercy on tanalorr, he takes it. he knows this is the only option where he's still alive to care for kata, but even more importantly, he knows that he's pushed cal too far into the darkside. he knows that taking his life would eventually destroy cal kestis. he never wanted to fall in love with him, but life had other plans. while earning back trust and forgiveness from cal, merrin, and honestly kata, bode stays on tanalorr or joins merrin looking for other force sensitives to bring them to tanalorr.

my main canon will take place either during the events of survivor, or in this time frame on tanalorr.

Welcome to my page, enjoying the ride?

Here you will find a short introduction of the woman behind the enigmatic account, more known with the name Scárlet Nova.

SOME INFORMATION:

Scár or Alet is usually how my friends address me. But you are more than welcome to create some nicknames or little identifier for your own contentment of me.

A self-proclaimed heavy nocturnal. You might see me lurking around on the timeline at night much more than you would see me when the sun is still high. Therefore, the nighttime is always the perfect time to engage in any kind of conversation with me.

Aries stellium, with Sagittarius as my sun sign. Judge me, do whatever you want with it.

INFJ-T, with a 2w9 Enneagram. A full-on lover with a heart of steel, truly.

It would be endless talks around movies, series, and anything random that the TV screen would show in the middle of the night when it comes to her. You are always welcome to converse with her about anything that you have in mind, those lingering thoughts disturbing your night sleep, a new favorite song you want to show off, anything. She might entertain the conversation more than you know.

She considers herself open to every opportunity, therefore she doesn’t limit herself to the kind of accounts she interacts with. Just make sure to be respectful to others, and keep your manners straight.

Her account will mostly be filled with monologues, as she prefers to fill her account by talking about the things she loves, and occasionally the people that she loves as well.

At the moment, she prefers keeping her circle of friends close and personal. So if you see her removing you from the bubble, please know that it means no harm. The same rule applies to random followers that she doesn’t have prior knowledge on. Just know that you are free to do so to me yourself.

Signed with love, Scár.

OC PERSONALITY SHEET: Patches/Nova! (My Coruscant Guard medic!)

Name: Nova/Patches

Appearances in writing:

The last reason (Chapter 5, “Blackout”, Chapter 9, “somewhere and nowhere)

Nova and Fox, prompt: “You have nothing to applogize for, you didn’t do anything wrong.”

The last reason, Chapter 8: missing scene

Pronouns: eventually they/them after they’ve come out

Nicknames: Using this opportunity to explain them having two names. Their name IS Nova, but after getting assigned to the corrie guard, they first took the identity of their dead closest brother; Patches. Eventually they’ll come out and tell their new loved ones they’re not actually him.

Appearance: Buzzcut (like Rex but not blond), several scars tracing their chest and back, a tattoo of a Starbird across their heart

Armor Appearance: Regular Guard armor, medic patch on the pauldrons

One word to sum them up: Patient

Noun to describe them: Protector

Temperament: Phlegmatic (i didn’t know this word, so in case YOU don’t either; They’re calm, might be seen as passive and unemotional.)

MBTI-Type: INTJ

Enneagram Type: 2

Others first impression of them: Quiet, they might blend into the background at first, definitely not the kind of person to stick out in a crowd

General dislikes: People trying to tell them what to do, being forced to raise their voice, not being listened to, spiders (but only ones with fat bodies), politics, thunderstorms

General likes: Caring for others, music, quality time with their brothers

Romantic status: Single. They’re bisexual btw this isn’t important in any story they just are

Love interest: none

Good friends: Other Corrie-Guard medics, the Guard’s Commanders + Hound

Enemy: Also Hound

Hobbies: Barely has time for hobbies but if they do get a moment off they like people watching or spend it with their brothers

Songs they relate to: Two by sleeping at last, Door by Mitski, Good Heart by Indigo de Souza, Wake by the antlers (especially this part:)

Fun fact: Patches is hard of hearing. Almost no one knows this. They’re deaf on their left ear and managed to slip through the system since their other one works (for the most part.) When they’re talking to people they will always try and stand to their left.

other things: Patches is definitely hiding something. They’ve had a tragic past they don’t tell people about and it left parts of them in fragments. More on that in a fic, eventually.

NOVA  :  GENSHIN IMPACT VERSE .

INTRODUCTION :  A strange teenager whose origins are as mysterious as she is. There are plenty of rumours about where she might have come from following her sudden appearance in Mondstadt, half of which were created by the very subject of such rumours herself. A troublemaker through and through, Nova revels in the chaos they cause wherever they walk, the sound of her laughter and the tiny bells attached to her hair ringing throughout the streets.

Sweet foods, stealing things from people who definitely don’t need it, pestering Fatui agents, napping somewhere up high, cloud watching, the smell in the air after it rains.

People telling her what to do, being restricted or restrained, water, snow, small spaces, not being able to see the sky.

APPEARANCE .

FEATURES :

Round cheeks, a small, upturned nose and lips that are often chapped. Bordering on unhealthily pale, skin almost appearing translucent under direct sunlight. Cheekbones and nose covered with pronounced freckles. Heavy shadows exist under her eyes, no matter how much sleep is had.

Pale, cotton candy pink. Waist-length, forming natural loose curls. Always swept up into a high side ponytail, secured in place with a ribbon that has several tiny bells attached. Uneven bangs that frame her face and frequently fall into her eyes. Often unkempt and only brushed when absolutely necessary.

BUILD :

Ectomorph body type. Petite and slender — some would even dare to say ‘delicate’ — courtesy of a poor diet throughout her youth. Extremely flexible. 

STORY .

CHARACTER DETAILS .

Little is known about Nova, the mysterious teenager who randomly appeared within the walls of Mondstadt one sunny afternoon. There are, however, plenty of rumours flying around that might offer a hint or two to those particularly hungry for knowledge, but as time has passed, these rumours have notably grown more and more ridiculous.

Many fail to realise that Nova herself is often the one who spreads such tall tales to any who are gullible enough to believe them.

Needless to say, Nova’s sudden appearance caught the attention of the Knights of Favonius, ever attentive to anything or anyone that might threaten the freedom and safety of their beloved city. Time and time again, they’ve attempted to wheedle information out of the mischievous teenager who prances throughout the streets day and night, only to receive the same answer.

“I’m just looking to have a little fun, that’s all.~”

And so, the reasoning behind their arrival in Mondstadt remains a mystery. Only Nova herself knows, and she’s not too keen on telling...

STORY ONE .

In the short sixteen years they’ve been alive, Nova has only ever wanted one thing: freedom.

It’s an ideal she’s chased for as long as she can remember, one she now strives to live by. And what better place to do that, than in the City of Freedom itself? 

To that end, it’s no coincidence that Nova eventually found herself within Mondstadt’s walls, beckoned by the alluring tales of its conception and the promise of acceptance for all who cross its borders.

In Nova’s eyes, Mondstadt was the only place in all of Teyvat that could grant her the true freedom she desires. 

Free from the oppressive nature of the Fatui. Free from the iron grip of the Tsaritsa and her warmongering ways. Free from the bone-deep cold that plagues Snezhnaya all year round. Free from that awful place that she could never call home.

But most importantly... They’re free from their old, pathetic, weak self whose name she no longer speaks of.

TW: mentions of neglect, physical & mental abuse, starvation.

STORY TWO .

Danica — as was once her name — has never known Snezhnaya and its inhabitants to be anything but cruel.

The matron in charge of the orphanage in which they were raised claimed to have found her abandoned upon its front steps, a nameless newborn wailing in the middle of a snowstorm, wrapped in nothing but a thin blanket.

The matron took great pleasure in telling her, time and time again throughout her childhood, that she was unwanted. Unloved. That she never should have been born.

“I should have left you to die out in the cold. You useless, pathetic child.”

From there, as the years went by, the mistreatment they suffered only escalated.

They were beaten. Abused. Yelled at for stepping a single toe out of line. Denied a proper meal to sate her hungry belly. Tossed into the dark, damp cellar for daring to stand up for herself...

No amount of crying or begging was enough to dissuade their so-called “punishment”, and Danica soon learned to never expect kindness from anyone, for kindness always came at a price from those in power.

And so, Danica swore never to cry or beg again.

STORY THREE .

Regardless of status, one thing is for certain amongst the citizens of Snezhnaya: it’s survival of the fittest.

Faced with no other options, Danica began stealing in order to eat at the tender age of six. Cooked meats from the butcher, loaves of still-warm bread from the bakery, an assortment of wild berries, herbs and freshly caught game from the back of carts belonging to hunters visiting a nearby inn... 

The greater the risk, the greater the reward. And Nova was becoming addicted to the danger.

At first, however, their petty thievery went unnoticed. 

Loaves of bread turned into pouches of Mora pilfered from drunken tavern-goers stumbling through the snow under the guise of helping them back to the warmth of their homes. Cooked meats became clothes draped over a windowsill to dry. Berries and herbs were exchanged for small trinkets foolishly left on display. And, perhaps their most prized stolen possession: an ivory pocket knife taken from an unsuspecting hunter who had previously offered her a drink from his waterskin.

Needless to say, It wasn’t long before her luck ran out.

Not long after Danica reached the age of fourteen, a group of strangely dressed people passed through town.

They belonged to the Fatui, a formidable faction that makes up Snezhnaya’s main military force, a group that not even the citizens of the nation they supposedly served would dare cross.

But Danica, unaware of the danger, saw only an opportunity.

The pretty jewels they all carried upon their person were sure to fetch an even prettier price, after all.

STORY FOUR .

They were called Delusions.

In a small town where everyone who lived in it were considered nothing more than scraps at the bottom of a barrel, talk of Visions and the Archons who gift them weren’t exactly commonplace. And who were they to be granted with the esteemed knowledge of the Fatui’s triumph in creating Visions of their own?

Danica knew not what she had stolen, but the retribution for her thievery was swift.

In the dead of night, they were dragged kicking and screaming from the orphanage and out into the snow by the very Fatui Agents she had stolen from. The townsfolk shut their doors and turned a blind eye to her plight, leaving her to be whisked away to the very heart of Snezhnaya itself: Zapolyarny Palace.

There, in order to repent for the crimes she committed against the Fatui and, by extension, the Tsaritsa herself, Danica was forced to kneel before the very ruler of the snowswept nation, who merely regarded her with an icy gaze.

In her eyes, Danica saw only contempt.

But where her hope might have dwindled and fear taken hold, a simple question set her heart alight.

“You would risk the freedom I have granted to all those within this great nation...to steal from me?”

...

What freedom was there to be had where only the rich and powerful could succeed? Where only those with enough Mora to line their pockets could remain fed and sheltered? Where the very things necessary for survival could be ripped from a person at a moments notice, for no reason other than they were disliked?

Freedom was an illusion. It was something only befitting of those with the opportunity to seize it. Freedom could be stolen. Taken away. Falsely bestowed.

It was the one thing she craved, but could never have.

“Freedom?” Danica could only repeat in utter disbelief, the word spat at the Archon’s feet. “What freedom have you ever given to me— to any of us?!”

In the wake of their rage, a sudden gale ripped through the giant hall, knocking several of the Fatui Agents off their feet. 

In the midst of the howling winds, Danica stood completely untouched. Something bright and shining appeared before her very eyes, lowering gently into her upturned palms.

She stared down at the newly gifted Vision nestled in her hands, slowly realising what it was supposed to represent: a promise that the freedom she craved could finally be hers, should she only choose to take it.

The Tsaritsa leaned forward, a hiss upon her lips. “Meddlesome bard.”

Danica glared up at the ruler of Snezhnaya one last time... And with their newfound power, they fled.

STORY FIVE .

Danica was no more.

That name was abandoned along with her life in Snezhnaya, the moniker ‘Nova’ adopted in order to hide her true origins.

Their journey in search of a place where they could be free led them across the expanse of Teyvat to the far northeast, following whispers of a city named after freedom itself. 

Like a pied piper pulling on the strings of her heart, Nova chased after the stories of Mondstadt and its absentee Archon, the very God who saw fit to bless her with a Vision in his name.

If such a wondrous sounding city truly existed, it had to be the place she could finally belong...

When their destination finally lay before them, a beautiful city standing proudly in the middle of a lake, Nova fell to her knees and shed tears for the first time in years.

I’m home, her heart whispered.

Welcome home, the wind teasingly responded.

BELLS .

By now, almost every citizen in Mondstadt ( particularly those with connections to a certain foreign delegation of diplomats ) knows to be wary of their belongings when they hear the sound of tiny bells, for the person attached to them is rather fond of pilfering whatever goods they can get their hands on.

“Won’t you do something about this?!” Luke once cried, after being robbed penniless while standing guard outside the Goth Grand Hotel.

The Knights of Favonius had promised to look into it, but how can one catch a thief supposedly as swift as the wind itself?

Who’s to say, after all, that the Fatui are being so egregiously targeted as they so claim?

As for the echo of laughter dancing on the wind after their pockets have been emptied, the only possible answer is that it’s simply all in their head.

VISION .

Even to this day, Nova fails to comprehend the reasoning behind Barbatos’ decision to gift her with a Vision.

What worth was there to be found in an orphaned thief such as herself? It’s a question they have asked themself time and time again, with little success. To understand the whims of a God was all but futile, after all.

Still, she was thankful. For all that she distrusted the Archons and their supposed might, without Barbatos’s blessing, her life would have surely come to an end that dreadful night, all dreams of freedom snatched from her feeble grasp.

It’s fitting, in a way, that the Archon of freedom himself saw fit to grant her the one thing she could never steal for herself. 

While she possesses no fantastical aspirations that might paint her worthy of his blessing, Nova has whispered a promise to the wind that she’ll live true to her humble dreams of freedom with his Vision in her hand, true to his legacy and the city he cultivated for all who wish for the same.

TALENTS .

MAIN WEAPON :  Bow ROLE :  Support  ( Movement Speed / Attack Speed / Stamina Recharge ) COMBAT STYLE :  Relies on speed over precision in order to overwhelm their opponents, utilising elemental damage where possible to disorient and gain the upper hand. Partnered with her impressive footwork and ability to dodge hits at the last second, Nova is a particularly tricky opponent, despite their limitations as a bow user.

NORMAL ATTACK :  Wind Volley

Normal Attack :  Nova performs up to six consecutive shots with a bow, each shot faster than the last, building up a small amount of Anemo energy around her. Upon the sixth shot, the Anemo energy she has accumulated will be released, lifting them ( and any enemies within range ) into the air.

Charged Attack :  Nova performs a more precise aimed shot which deals increased damage. While aiming, a strong gust of wind will swell around the arrowhead. A fully charged arrow will release this gust of wind, dealing Anemo damage.

Plunging Attack :  Nova fires off a shower of arrows while mid-air before wrapping herself in Anemo energy and falling, striking the ground, dealing AoE and Anemo damage upon impact.

ELEMENTAL SKILL :  Relentless Gale

On Press :  Nova fires an arrow made of pure Anemo energy that sends her opponents flying back in the direction she aims at, dealing massive Anemo damage.

If an enemy hit by Relentless Gale collide with another enemy or object, they will suffer an additional 15~50% damage, dependent on the Skill’s level.

Elemental Absorption: if the Anemo arrow comes into contact with Hydro / Pyro / Cryo / Electro elements, it will deal with additional elemental damage of that type. Only one element can be absorbed at one time.

On Hold / Charge :  Summons an even larger Anemo arrow that creates a small whirlwind at its tip, dragging in surrounding enemies and sending them flying upon release. The direction of this skill can be adjusted, however Nova is rendered immobile until the arrow is released.

Elemental Absorption: if the whirlwind comes into contact with Hydro / Pyro / Cryo / Electro elements, it will deal with additional elemental damage of that type. Only one element can be absorbed at one time.

Cooldown :  5 seconds. Reduced to 4 seconds upon unlocking Nova’s Passive Talent ‘Unleash the Storm’ at Ascension Lv. 4.

ELEMENTAL BURST :  Eye of the Storm

Nova fires a shower of arrows made of pure Anemo energy that land all around the area aimed at and form a swirling wind barrier which causes continuous Anemo damage to any enemies caught within it upon contact. It can also be utilised as a shield for allies, at the risk of being dealt damage upon contact. 

Elemental Absorption: if the swirling barrier comes into contact with Hydro / Pyro / Cryo / Electro elements, it will deal with additional elemental damage of that type. Only one element can be absorbed at one time.

PASSIVE TALENT 1 :  A Refreshing Breeze  (  Ascension Lv. 1  )

While Nova is in the party, any hits by Normal Attacks have a 60% chance to restore stamina equal to 15% of Nova’s base HP for all party members.

PASSIVE TALENT 2 :  Unleash the Storm  (  Ascension Lv. 4  )

Upgrades Eye of the Storm - Nova’s Elemental Burst now deals 150% more damage.

Using Eye of the Storm will regenerate 20% of its Energy. 

Eye of the Storm’s cooldown is reduced by 1s.

PASSIVE TALENT 3 :  Swift as the Wind  (  unlocked automatically  )

When Nova is in the party, all party members gain an increased movement and attack speed of 10%.

[ill-be-istj-if-no-one-else-is]

hii! so i was typed an infj, both by cognitive functions tests, personality tests, and the 16 personalities thingy. my enneagram is 6. so because the whole stigma around the mistypings of infj so i get really unsure of my type a lot. no other type resonates with me more but im not the calm, collected version infj’s are made out to be. as my best self i am chaotic, and excited, making no sense at all and being free. i am also not as morally righteous as infjs seem to be, however i used to be more

           chaotic infj back again. i do see myself being easily manipulated by people with npd and such and can also see myself using my NiFe to manipulate others sometimes without even noticing. i also see myself adjusting to those around me to make them the most comfortable, if they need someone shy or outgoing etc. however, because of the N preference in the community i feel i might be mistyped there, when i am in fact an s. i love ideas and big abstract themes such as morality, the nova effect 2/infj            

3/infj politics, mbti, etc but while still in highschool i see myself just wanting facts and facts and no abstract ideas and anytime there is not a definite answer i get anxious. this could be due to the competitive nature of my school and my perfectionism or when i get into an NiTi loop but i also wanted your opinion. i am very self aware and self reflective, hence why i can’t seem to stop doubting who i am, and i know thats a trait of infjs. i also resonate a lot with andrew garfield who is            

4/infj who is an infamous infp and i know im not as idealist as i used to be with politics but i still don’t think im as free flowing as an infp because i don’t revel in being different i hate it. thanks for listening and doing what you do and if you have any thoughts i would really like to hear them            

5/infj, also im sorry about using Ni and Fe and Ti and all those i forgot they were in ur faq and thats normally how i talk about mbti and i also know i used very average descriptions like morally righteous and stuff which is also in ur faq eek, im sorry i tried my best its hard to describe yourself             

--------------------------------

Hi anon,

Just to get it out of the way, I don’t have a typing for this and my advice is going to be what it is for many high schoolers who have difficulty describing themselves, which is wait until you’ve developed more as a person. It’s always hard to describe yourself, but it’s much harder when many of your choices are made for you and you’re still very much in the midst of figuring out who you are.

A few things to consider when retyping yourself in the future: first, tests are garbage. They type essentially everyone who shows mild curiosity about the world as an intuitive, anyone who isn’t extremely extroverted as an introvert, and reduce the valid differences between judgers and perceivers to neat/messy. I do find they’re often kind of okay on feeling vs. thinking (in the dichotomy sense - they can’t tell apart Fi from Fe), but that’s also something that in many cases I find relatively easy to tell. Anyway, the only thing I’d consider taking away from this is that you’re probably a feeler, and the information you provided seems to back that up.

Second, I’m not sure what your sources are for INFJ behavior. The fact is because this type is so commonly over typed, you can hear arguments for basically everything since people of all types think they’re INFJs and even the same descriptions often contradict, and not in a Walt Whitman kind of way but in a “wow you did not think this through” kind of way. I mean, what kind of moral person prides themselves on the door slam, an immature and stupid thing to do*? So I would just ignore all of those and try to type yourself, as a person, based on the functions.

For manipulations; first, how many people do you know with NPD? Like, actually diagnosed? I’m not saying it’s impossible you’ve run into them but I don’t think I’ve ever run into someone personally with an actual APD or NPD diagnosis that I knew of. Second, what specifically do you mean by manipulation? I find it’s an area that gets weirdly defined on Tumblr and sometimes people use it to refer to like, normally asking people to do things for you which is just being a person. Manipulation has an implication of underhanded tactics.

For liking philosophical ideas: I find most intelligent people do. Intuition vs. Sensing isn’t a matter of liking philosophical ideas in an academic/leisure setting; it’s more specifically about how you interact with them in your actual daily life when you’re not in school or spending your free time. I’m a physicist, like, as my job, and I love physics, and I was drawn to physics by a lot of cool theoretical ideas which I still find interesting - but I have absolutely no desire to be a theoretical physicist professionally. So I have a question, and a caveat here: first, would you be happy spending your life pondering philosophical or theoretical questions as a primary thing that you do? And for the caveat: in high school I absolutely would have said yes, and as a junior in college I realized the answer was actually a strong No, which is yet another reason why I think waiting to type yourself until you’re older is often a very good idea. (Note: this is not a perfect sensing/intuition question by any means anyway - I suspect a lot of ENTJs would answer No here because of their dominant Te. But it’s a valuable question to have in mind when typing yourself.)

I think being a little older will also shed whether you want guidance because you’re a sensor or guidance because of the general nature of high school and academic pressures, and whether you want to fit in because you have Fe or because of the general nature of high school. It’s worth noting that if you’re confident in a 6 core enneagram, that might be a factor whether you use high Fe or high Fi.

I don’t place a lot of value on who you relate to; not only do I not personally know Andrew Garfield’s type I think part of the nature of celebrity (and/or fictional characters) is projecting a persona that can appeal to a lot of people, and the reasons we relate to people often are about shared experience or a shared opinion about something important to us. We can relate to people of different types quite easily - which is good - but it means it’s not really a typing tool.

And finally I guess to clarify - the reason I ask people not to use MBTI terms in asking questions isn’t because I dislike it for its own sake - it’s because it makes it pretty much impossible for me to draw my own conclusions. Typing over the internet is always a challenge because I’m relying on someone’s own unintentionally cherry-picked understanding of their personality, rather than my observation, but when they use functions to describe what they do it, I don’t even know what they’re trying to say because there’s an additional layer of uncertainty based on whether their understanding of Fe (for example) is the same as mine and so I have nothing to go on and won’t be able to answer. Believe me, if the FAQ was about things I dislike rather than things I need to type well I would just be deleting every question in which someone ended a sentence with ‘lol’.

So: no idea on type other than feeler, but I hope the above gives you an idea of what to look for in the future, with the understanding that you might not be able to type yourself accurately for a while, and that’s fine.

*as always I make an exception if you’re cutting off ties with an abuser but a lot of the door slam descriptions aren’t “I stopped talking to my abuser and didn’t tell them why because it would put me in danger,” but rather “this person BETRAYED MY CONFIDENCES and I cannot ever forgive them, they have pushed me too far this time and I have given all of myself, but I shan’t be hurt again, I cannot bear it” and it’s all extremely amateur-production-of-a-Bronte-novel and melodramatic and very silly.

Hiii! I could be mistaken but I think I saw a post before of Transformers and their personality types but I can’t find it now? I could be getting confused with someone else tho

You’ve come to right place! As far as I know, I’m the only person in this part of the fandom who publicly and actively talks about personality typology in connection to Transformers. (If I’m wrong, please send them my way; I could talk about this stuff for hours. I’d be happy to chat about it with you too if you’re interested.)

Leroy/Grumpy (Once Upon a Time): ISTP

Dominant Introverted Thinking [Ti]: Grumpy has an understanding of how things work. He often makes brutally honest assessments of situations and isn’t exactly mindful of the feelings of the people around him. He brusquely tells Snow White that nobody is going to want to help her sell candles for Miner’s Day because the only person people in the town hate more than him is her. Leroy is an adept problem-solver. When he eventually comes around in order to impress Nova, they have a difficult time getting the townsfolk to make a purchase. He first comes up with a plan to sell candles door-to-door. He then attempts to persuade Mr. Gold to let the rent go for one month. When that fails, he cuts the power, creating a demand for candles. Leroy is argumentative and points out other people’s logical flaws. When Mary Margaret chastises him for pursuing a nun, he tells her she is no better than he is because she had been sneaking around with a married man. When Granny refuses to allow Ariel entry into the diner because of her lack of clothing, Leroy defends her by pointing out all of the times Ruby has been in there, dressed in practically nothing. Leroy is detached in his decision-making and doesn’t typically let emotions influence his thought process. Elsa needs to be stopped. All evidence indicates that she was the one who froze the town.

Auxiliary Extroverted Sensing [Se]: When there is a problem, Grumpy has no problem diving right in and doing something. When Nova is filling up a bag of fairy dust in the mines, Grumpy (“Dreamy”) sees that she is having trouble turning off the machine and immediately rushes over and pulls the lever for her. Then, the bag nearly ends up being incinerated, but Grumpy leaps up to where the bag is and stops it from entering the fire by hooking it with his ax just in time to save it. When he is trying to sell candles with Mary Margaret, he decides that if customers won’t come to them, they would have to go to the customers, and takes action by going door-to-door and eventually cuts the power. Leroy enjoys sensory pleasures. He’s the town alcoholic and the first time we see him in Storybrooke, he is in jail for disorderly conduct. Back when he was Dreamy, he wanted to run away and see the world outside of the mines. Dreamy wasn’t satisfied working in the mines like the other dwarves and planned to abandon his responsibilities. He tends to express his feelings through physical displays. After telling Nova he can’t be with her, Dreamy returns to the mines and violently begins beating a rock with his ax, breaking it. When Sneezy draws the short straw when the townspeople are trying to test the town border, he refuses to step over the line, and Leroy pushes him over it, stripping him of his Enchanted Forest memories. He decides he would rather leave Storybrooke and lose his memories than stay there with Regina, and is set to drive out of down until David stops him. When Regina shows up at the celebration at Granny’s, Leroy immediately grabs a knife, wanting to know what she’s doing there.

Tertiary Introverted Intuition [Ni]: Leroy doesn’t exactly have a positive outlook on the future. His insights are usually of a pessimistic nature. However, when he has a goal in mind, he stops at nothing to achieve it. He is determined to raise five-thousand dollars for Sister Astrid so the nuns will be able to remain in Storybrooke and he becomes singularly focused on accomplishing his task, no matter what he has to do to get the job done. When the curse is lifted, Leroy quickly becomes concerned about the possibility of outsiders wandering into Storybrooke, and he wholeheartedly believes that trouble will be coming their way, and this hunch is eventually proven to be correct.

Inferior Extroverted Feeling [Fe]: Emotional expression isn’t exactly Grumpy’s forte. He’s a loner and isn’t as community-minded as some of his fellow Storybrooke residents. He isn’t particularly compassionate. Once everybody regains their memories of who they truly are and Leroy hears that an angry mob is headed to Regina’s house, Leroy believes that she deserves it. He’s somewhat oblivious to what other people are feeling. Even when he was still Dreamy, he was clueless when Nova hinted that she wanted to see the fireflies with him. When he goes to tell Sister Astrid that he and Mary Margaret were unable to sell the candles, he can’t bring himself to disappoint her and instead lies, saying they sold them all. He allows other people to influence his emotions, and lets the Blue Fairy and Bossy convince him that he can’t love and that Nova will be better off if he refuses to run away with her, and he listens to them. Leroy is afraid that saving Greg’s life will lead to unwanted attention for Storybrooke and is leery about saving him for the sake of the town.

Note: For some reason, I’ve only ever seen Leroy typed as an INFP, but I just don’t see enough evidence to support that.

Enneagram: 6w5 8w9 4w5 Sp/Sx

Quotes:

Dreamy: All she talked about was going to see some fireflies, not loving me Belle: What did she tell you about these fireflies? Dreamy: That she was gonna go see them on the hilltop tonight. That she heard they were the most beautiful sight in all the land. Belle: She wasn’t telling you about fireflies. She was inviting you to go be with her. Dreamy: You think so? Belle: I’ve had my heart broken enough to know when someone is reaching out. Now go, find your love. Find your hope. Find your dreams.

Mary Margaret: Oh my God. You like her. She is a nun, Leroy. Could you possibly pick anyone any less available? Leroy: Says the girl who went after a married guy. At the end of the day, you’re no better than I am. You got your reasons for being here, I got mine. Now when I say I’m gonna get that five-thousand dollars, I’m gonna get that five-thousand dollars.

Bossy: You can’t do this, Dreamy. You can’t go to her. Dreamy: Why not? Bossy: You have a responsibility – to mine the diamonds we make into fairy dust. Dreamy: But I love her. Bossy: You’re a dwarf, Dreamy. You’re not capable of love. It’s not how we’re made. Dreamy: What if I’m different? What if you’re wrong? Blue Fairy: Bossy’s not wrong, young one. What you feel – it’s just a dream. Dreamy: Who are you? Blue Fairy: I’m Nova’s teacher. And if the two of you run away together, it will not end well. Nova will lose her wings. But if you return to the mines, and you allow Nova to become the fairy that she was meant to be, the two of you will bring untold joy to the world. Nova can be a great fairy… if you let her. The choice is yours.

Mary Margaret: Leroy, you know that a relationship between you and Sister Astrid can never happen. Leroy: My whole life people made it their business to tell me what I can’t do. She was the first person that said I could do anything. Who believed in me. I didn’t want to disappoint her. But there are consequences to following through when the world tells you not to. I mean, look at me. I am a pariah in this town.

Dreamy: What matters is I can’t stand in the way of your happiness. Nova: You are my happiness! I love you. Don’t you love me? Dreamy: I’m a dwarf. I can’t love.

Grumpy: I don’t want my pain erased. As wretched as it is, I need my pain. It makes me who I am. It makes me Grumpy.

[Mary Margaret and Leroy are trying unsuccessfully to sell their candles on the miner’s day fair] Mary Margaret: This isn’t working. Leroy: You’re right. We should pack it up. Mary Margaret: Now you’re quitting. Leroy: If the customers won’t come to us, we gotta go to them – door to door. Mary Margaret: If they hate us here, what makes you think they’ll like us in their homes? Leroy: Exactly. They’ll pay us just to leave.

Leroy: So let me get this straight. You got a twin brother? David: Yeah. Leroy: Whose name is James? David: Right. Leroy: But *your* name is James. David: No, actually it’s not. Leroy: Charming, then? Mary Margaret: No, that’s the nickname I gave him. Leroy: Hey, hold on, what the hell *is* your name? David: David. Leroy: Your cursed name? David: My real name. Leroy: What, you’re David, James and Charming, and David’s like a middle name? David: No, it’s my name name! Leroy: You know, whatever, I’ll call you whatever I damn well please! That OK? David: Sure, Leroy.

Granny: Uh, maybe you didn’t notice the sign? No shirt, no shoes, no service. Leroy: Now you got a dress code? I seem to recall some Ruby outfits that are seared into my brain.

[David is trying to unlock the stranger’s phone] David: Leroy, can you get it open or something? Hack it? Leroy: Well, you do understand that computer hacking and pickax hacking are different.

Archie: Dr. Whale’s whipped everyone to a frenzy. They’re going to Regina’s house. They’re gonna kill her! Leroy: Great. Let’s watch.

Leroy: [handing Gold another vial with the elixir] This is for you. Mr. Gold: And what am I supposed to do with that? Leroy: Belle once helped remind me who I was. I’ve never forgotten. I want to return the favor. Don’t let her die as Lacey.

Henry Mills: [to David] You’ll find another way. In the book, things always look worse right before there’s good news. Leroy: [running towards them with the other six dwarves] Terrible news! Terrible news! We were out at the town limits. Tell ’em who you think you are, Sneezy! Sneezy: Will you stop calling me that? You know who I am. I’m Tom Clark, I own the Dark Star Pharmacy. What’s going on here? Leroy: [to the others] If you cross the border, you lose your memory all over again. Archie: And coming back doesn’t fix it? Leroy: If it did, would I have come running in yelling, “Terrible news”? If we leave, our cursed selves become our only selves.

As per my last reblog/post:

I came across this excellent complaint about Prowl in IDW.

They make a good point about JRo writing Prowl as being too expressive at the end of MTMTE, which I agree with, but the first part is a different story:

@/icecreamrobot writes:

“As amusing/classic IDW Prowl as that line is, it directly contradicts pretty much everything about Prowl’s character/development in SOTW. This takes place after SOTW, doesn’t it? SOTW, where Prowl directly acknowledged that his way of doing thing’s wasn’t perfect, and that he’d been wrong? Recall his decision to *not* pop a cap in Hubcap’s aft? That change of heart? That doesn’t seem like the kind of mech to say “Everything I did was right” a few days later.”

While I understand the confusion, what I see here is perfectly believable. In fact, it’s an excellent example of unhealthy use of Te and Fi in an INTJ.

Most of you have no idea what I’m talking about at this point, but that’s okay. You don’t need to. Just read and learn. :P

Immature Auxiliary Te expression:

extremely inflexible; cannot change ideas and plans

addicted to work and sabotages personal life

tends to be stiff, humorless, controlling, forceful

excessive or perfectionistic pursuit of “productivity”/“results”

categorical black/white judgment; blind to nuance/context

Tertiary Fi loop:

can’t see that black/white approach creates or worsens problems

easily frustrated by challenges; takes results too personally

refuses to accept negative results, thus, doesn’t learn from mistakes

knows the right way but continues with the wrong way anyway

uses trite moral justifications to harden faulty beliefs/approach

treats moral judgments as factual truth despite no evidence/poor results

shoots down good advice as being too hard or too complicated

irrational fear about “compromising” oneself or one’s integrity

(source: @/mbti-notes)

Sounds almost exactly like IDW Prowl, doesn’t it? Maybe even Soundwave, at least a little?

So what I’ve decided to work with in my story is a messed up INTJ (Prowl) and a slightly less messed up INTJ (Soundwave).

I am having fun. (Mostly true)

#it also doesn’t help that Prowl is a 6w5 on the enneagram #6s with either wing are the champions of ambivalence 🫠 #the wolf of petrex #nova talks mbti #me and my weird hobby hehe #nova’s nerding out again #soundwave keep an eye on this #<- Prowl is counting on it lol
