PERSONALITY
AUNT & UNCLE
MY PLANS FOR HER FUTURE ADULT SELF
Hi, I'm MegaCherrio. I am an artist, baker and crochet-er who's deeply in love with every character I own. I develop them to the fullest and try to make all my characters different and unique. I am not an avid member of the Jellybean Dragon community, to be honest, simply because I don't own a bean and often feel excluded or disinterested without one. However, I love roleplaying, shipping, drawing and loving all my characters, as well as being part of a community so this girl will defiantly be loved. I'm hoping to show you the character I have created for Kodak in the way of words today, so thank you for reading and giving me a chance to show my love for this little vanilla bean. I'd appreciate if the first time you read my form you go through everything in order because I set it all up in a way that gives the best effect.
Without further ado, meet Kodak.
" you can't draw with a white crayon "
There is always that girl at the park.
No matter where you live, no matter where you go. There is that one, sun-kissed, bright-eyed girl who runs around chasing the squirrels and playing in the sandbox. She's the one who feeds the seagulls at the beach. Runs up to pet the pigeons underneath the train tracks. The one who climbs up on top of the highest tree in sight and every time you see her, you feel the need to go up to her and tell her something -- "You can't pick flowers, honey, this is someone's garden," or maybe, "It's best you leave that man's puppy alone."
And every time she sees you walking over, she'll right herself up on that tall tree branch and look down at you with her emerald eyes and say, "Good morning, Ms. Martina," in the most polite way possible. And then you would scold her for whatever she was doing that she certainly was not supposed to do and she'd smile and say, "Yes, Ms. Martina." It was almost like she was shaking her head at you, thinking oh, that silly lady... always bothering me but you could never quite get her to confess. All you could do was watch her for a couple seconds more, scrutinizing her milky white fur as if she'd tell you her real intentions if you just. stared. hard. enough. ---
and when you turned around to leave, she'd wait one-two-three- four- five seconds before going back to whatever she was doing, the serene smile still glowing on her face
- Name; Kodak Serendipity Poodle
Nickname; Koda (by most)
Gender; Female
Age; Seven years
Physical; Kodak has a strong build and has always been taller than other beans her own age, especially her twin who looks almost like a younger sister compared to Koda. Her voice is often much TOO LOUD for any proper situation, and she can get excited and noisy frequently. Her gait is fairly quick & confident in her strides, and she does everything in a fast manner-- more like "determined". As Koda gets older, she begins to resent her larger size because she finds being short and small cuter and more delicate, however it won't become a large problem in her life because she doesn't care much for her image and no one has brought her size up. She happens to be a bit clumsy because of her fast nature, but she isn't spontaneous at all -- rather the opposite, being quite indecisive and hating spontaneity. She can often be quite slow to come to conclusions.
Personality; Koda is so much of a rule-followe that she can end up ruining the fun of everyone else-- however only when she's with others. It's like she never gets to worry about breaking rules when shes on her own because she's so sure of herself and never has to bring the question out into the open. This can cause her to wander off doing who-knows-what and climbing trees. She is very independent on her own and can come back from her advnetures, responsibly, right before supper time.
Koda is also very loud. Being a twin and "white furred", Kodak has always wanted to stick out, and one way she can do this is by talking loud and being dramatic. Koda loves acting and being in the spotlight for this very reason. She would also be considered the bossier of the two sisters because she is such a stickler for the rules. Kodak is often very worried -- worried about what she should be doing and where she should go (of corse, this always happens after she wanders off) and how people feel. She is very empathetic and would easily cry if her sister was when she was two and three. She is quite confident and doesn't worry about what people think of her, per say, but just how they are, which fits in with her sympathetic nature. Kodaks is gullible. She will believe anything you say, and it's absolutely hilarious to her sister and friends to get her to believe all sorts of weird stuff. Koda, of course, doesn't like being made fun of. She'd still fall for another prank the next day, though. Her idea of humor is horrible puns, which she can't get enough of. She, herself is "funny" but not on purpose.
Quirks & facts; • Koda loves wooden items and bowls and prefers to eat out of them in general - she finds the idea they were once real, alive trees fascinating
• Koda loves wild animals, especially birds. As a child, she had a strange obsession and knew almost any fact about any bird and could recite random facts on queue.
• Koda does not wear anything white because she thinks she's too plain and is afraid of being forgotten or dismissed, only wears bright, clashing colors. This is one of her greatest fears - being forgotten.
• She desperately wants to be good at something-- she wants to have a niche people can always remember her for - like "oh, she's a good drawer" or "she's smart". It's kind of like a safety measure so that she won't be overlooked, tying in with the point above. Koda experiments with a lot of things, never being quite patient enough to be dedicated to being really good at any one thing, which doesn't help her with her goal much.
• Kodak loves drama & acting - being on the center of the stage is a way to have the focus on her and what she's saying.
• Kodak plays the flute quite well and loves being in the school's band.
• She loves eating pretzel sticks - only the sticks (sometimes with peanut butter)
• Koda braids her long tail fluff when she is nervous or bored.
• She's quite a grammar freak, just hooking on with her need for "rules" and she points it out in conversations to the annoyance of others.
Favorite song;Fireworks by Katy Perry. She loves this song because she can understand the words and sing along (even when she isn't a good singer). She and her sister happen to prefer music that have a story they can understand. Of course, it's super cute to watch a three year old belting out "fireworks" out of tune with her sister.
Her mothers;
Kodak and Soda Pop look up to their mothers like they are the greatest people on Earth. Ask them to draw super heros and they'd probably draw their mothers. And in Kindergarten, everything they drew at the "Rainbow Table" with all the colored paper and markers were gifts for their mothers. They are absolutely fascinated with them like any other mother-child bond.


Let's just say, don't let Koda help you with making floral necklaces. It's a bad idea.
Leave it at that.
And she also tried to knit, and after getting frustrated after the first limb she decided it would be a one-armed sweater. And she gave it to her sister.
It's now at the bottom of one of her worm jars as a sponge to keep them moist.
- a couple life moments;
1.It's funny how Kodak is a rule-follower when she likes to run things her own way. It'd seem that she'd be messy, disorganized and letting all hell break loose when she wanted to "cook dinner all by myself today!"
"Just no stoves or fire, remember?"
"Of course, Mami. But we can still have pasta."
Doodles and Pine exchange frightened looks.
It goes without saying that their night's dinner was... .
crunchy.
However, while she likes to mess around and go on adventures, she also like to stick very much to the rules. Only if her mothers let her. Of course, since Kodak andand Soda Pop are Doodle & Pine's first children, they watch the two very carefully and Kodak has grown used to the support of all the rules they put to keep Kodak from going out of control.
(and Soda Pop from bringing jars of dirt inside and then releasing ladybugs in their house. There happened to be an infestation of their walls the next spring.)
Her sister, however, isn't much like that.
Which would describe the... infestation.
"There were a lot of ladybugs." Kodak said in awe.
"You can't put the books away there, Soda Pop. You have to go put them in the closet!"
"I can't reach the closet! It doesn't matter, Koda..."
"Come on, Koda! Let's go make waffles for Mother's Day before Mami and Momma wake up." Soda Pop shouted, running down the hallway to where Kodak was spread out on the floor grooming her stuffed dog.
"Are you sure? Did you ask Momma first?" Kodak hesitated.
"But Koda! That's going to ruin the surprise."
"Fine. But no stoves or fire."
"You sound like Mami," Soda Pop rolled her eyes.
They didn't have a waffle maker.
It goes without saying that the waffles were very... .
soggy.
Pine and Doodles smiled sheepishly at each other, forcing the milky-egg mixture down.
2. "I love art. I love colors. There is nothing better than the wonderful feeling of sitting inside on a winter day with a pencil and drawing," Kodak sighed, flopping out over her bed and letting her arms reach the floor. "I love pencils and I love pens and crayons and markers." She shut her eyes, letting the mid-afternoon sunlight wash over her face.
Kodak was not an artist.
"A hundred pages for real!" Kodak screeched, her eyes lighting up as she spun the last drawing of their stuffed animals in the air. She looked down at Soda Pop. "Are you sure you put the right numbers on them?" Kodak asked, watching Soda Pop look up at her tiredly with the pen in her hand.
"I don't even want to write all the numbers! I don't even know what comes after twenty!" she sighed impatiently, flipping quickly through the pages that were numbered "twenty-nine, twenty. twenty-one, twenty-two ..." all over again until a hundred. "Can't I draw a picture too?" Soda Pop asked in annoyance, reaching for the page in Kodak's hands in order to write another "twenty" on it in blocky kindergarten-handwriting.
"I'm the artist, Soda Pop!" she exclaimed, shaking her head playfully. Kodak looked down at her empty paws. "And no, give that back! You write the numbers too big, and that's not even what one hundred looks like!"
Kodak was not an artist.
Everyone always says that "oh, anyone can be an artist as long as you love what you're doing."
"The thing is, Mami is such a great artist and she makes so many beautiful things. Like even one time when I was a newborn-"
"You don't even remember when you were a newborn!" Soda Pop growled.
"How do you know? You're not in my head!"
"You can't remember that, it was six years ago!"
"Seven!" Kodak snapped.
"Six!" It was common for the two to fight.
"You can't even write past a hundred and you're seven!"
"Six!"
"No, you're the same age as me!" Kodak plopped herself on the other side of the bed.
"So. When I was a newborn-" she paused, eyeing Soda Pop suspiciously, waiting for her to interrupt.
"We were coloring in our coloring book... and my and Soda Pop's picture was just scribbles but Mami's coloring was beautiful." Kodak signed, sitting up in her bed and watching the floor sadly. "I don't even like coloring, but I don't have any special talents and I need to be good at something." The string of words didn't seem to tire out the seven-year-old at all. If you let her, she'd probably tell you the life story of every one of her stuffed animals. And Kodak had a lot of stuffed animals.
Soda Pop watched her with gentle eyes.
"Like, Soda Pop is good at bugs and I tried to love bugs once -"
"How can I be good at bugs, that's not even a thing!"
"It is too!"
"And you are a copycat. You're the one who brought the fireflies in and then they all died!"
"That's a delicate subject." Kodak sniffled.
You'd see why she was such a good actor.
3. Kodak and Soda Pop.
The reason they clash so much is because they are so alike. Kodak and Soda Pop - the duo. The two little girls you'd always think of as a unit -- but not in the bad way, where you can't tell them apart. They were just best friends.
The good memories outweigh the fights.
Soda Pop loved bugs, and Kodak loved animals. They loved nature simultaneously, and with a vivid, burning passion. They wanted nothing more than to go outside and build a snow tunnel on the coldest day of the year, or go plant popcorn seeds they would pop for Friday Movie Night on a spring day to see if it would grow.
"Fireflies!" Kodak sighed in awe, pressing her snout up against the dining room window. The light-bugs flickered lazily in the summer darkness, like little stars that tumbled from the sky onto the dew-tipped grass blades.
"Eat your supper really fast so it won't get too dark to go outside, okay Koda?" Soda Pop squeaked, her eyes glowing with excitement while she joined her sister at the windowsill.
It's funny how the simplest pleasures still give Kodak and Soda Pop joy. Video games, internet and television have taken over the world and lots of bean's childhoods. Koda has never been interested in television. It's like they were born in the past, taken right out of a black and white photograph and placed in this time but-- they were happy.
The two shoveled their food down and leaped up from the table in sync, running out to the back door. Doodles and Pine exchanged a look. A there-they-go-again look.
"You can get the mud for their house," Kodak decided, handing Soda Pop the jar she grabbed off the counter. She stopped for a second at the bottom of the stairs, smiled, and there her bead back to soak up the beautiful moonlight on her face before following after her sister in the hunt for fallen stars.
4. "I'm going to be a doctor when I grow up," Koda said, sighing happily as she threw herself down into the wild grass. Pine was sitting next to her on a towel -- excuse me, their picnic blanket while Soda Pop ran off to make more mud pies for lunch. They had been trying to make flower crowns together out of the last round of blossoming dandelions, and Koda had given up within a second. "Are you now?" Pine asked, her gentle aloe-colored eyes watching her exuberant daughter with a gentle fondness.
Soda Pop came sauntering back, her paws and face covered in mud. She served them a sticky brown mixture (which was probably not mud, don't tell her) and she burst out laughing. "You -- a doctor? You killed like a thousand birds and caused world destruction!" Soda Pop shouted.
"What? I did NOT!" Koda growled, sitting up.
"Yes, yes .. you have to be NICE to be a doctor!" Soda Pop stuck out her tongue.
"Girls!" Pine called out desperately, "No fighting please!"
Koda picked up her mud pie and threw it at Soda Pop's face.
She stood there for a long second, blinking as the mud rolled off her face and onto the ground.
"Koda!" Pine scolded.
Soda Pop snapped, leaping onto Kodak and wrestling her to the ground, getting both their fur covered in mud.
"Girls!" Pine tried again, "you better stop this right now!" She got up and grabbed Soda Pop by the scruff, pulling her away from her sister. Her paws were still thrashing in the air.
"She threw mud at my face!" Soda Pop screeched. Kodak stuck out her tongue.
Pine looked helpless.
"We don't throw mud ..." she tried, blinking. "Let's get you washed up."
Kodak stood by the mud stained towel for a long time. "No!" she shouted.
Pine turned back, placed Soda Pop on the ground and the girl ran off towards the house.. "Where is Doodles?" Pine whimpered to herself.
5.
Eikel came up to Kodak at school while she was practicing for a puppet show. "Hi Kodak!" he said, cheekily smiling at her. She continued to play with her puppets for a moment, before looking up.
"Uh, hi Eikel," she said slowly, quite confused honestly why he would be talking to her. She left the puppets with her friends and got up.
"You're pretty," he told her, smiling sweetly. Kodak furrowed her brow, looking confused.
"I know," she said hesitantly. She blinked a couple times, then turned her head to search for Soda Pop because she must have set this up or something.
He laughed awkwardly, then smiled at her again. Kodak forced a smile, still trying to locate Soda Pop in the room.
"Will you go see a movie with me tomorrow after school?" he asked.
"I don't really like movies," Kodak replied.
"Uhm, ok," Eikel tried to come up quickly with a better idea. "How about the park?"
Kodak smiled. "I like the park," she said, "I'll go."
Eiksel beamed back at her. "See you after school then."
"Hopefully I'll see you in school tomorrow." He laughed.
----
"Mami!" Kodak screeched, flying into the house and half-breaking-down the door. "Guess what just happened? Eikel is taking me to the park after school tomorrow. And he said I was pretty."
Soda Pop followed after her, giggling as she balanced a mud jar on her snout. "Yeah, he said she was pretty." she giggled. "And Koda was so smooth. He asked to go to the movies and she was like, 'I don't even like movies'!"
"Was not!" Koda shouted.
"Yes! I heard it!"
"Girls!"
6.
"Guess what I heard, Koda?" Soda Pop said late at night when they were supposed to be asleep, but at the same time knew neither one of them was.
"What did you hear?" Kodak squeaked excitedly, peeking her snout out from under her covers to meet Soda Pop's emerald eyes.
"I heard Mami talking about a new addition to the family," she giggled.
"Yes! We're getting a dog!" she shouted, and Soda Pop immediately shushed her. A few seconds passed by in the dark. No footsteps were heard. They continued.
"Not a dog, idiot!" Soda Pop said, shaking her head. Koda was ready to retaliate with another insult, but the smile on Soda Pop's face made her interested and she wasn't going to sacrifice their late-night conversation. "An addition."
"We're leaning math?" Koda blinked.
"An egg..." Soda Pop tried.
"A chicken!"
"An EGG..." she tried again..
"A dinosaur?"
"ANOTHER SISTER OR BROTHER!" Soda Pop shouted.
"Be quiet!" Kodak whispered, and they both dove under their covers and shut their eyes for one. two . three seconds -- no one there, four. five, all clear.
-----------
The next morning they dropped subtle clues all day.
"Can I have some EGGS for breakfast?" Soda Pop asked.
"Yeah, I want some EGGS!" Kodak giggled.
"EGGS!" they said in unison.
Pine gave them a blank look, and made eggs.
"I don't like eggs," Kodak sighed, tossing the yellowish mush around her plate.
"Mami, the baby - I mean gravy is really egg--excellent today." Kodak said at dinner time. She and her sister exchanged glances as they tried to contain their laughter.
"What gravy?" Doodles asked, turning to Pine with a confused expression.
short story.
Hi, Mega again. :) I'm just going to finish off by saying thank you for the opportunity you gave me to fall in love with this bean. I had so much fun working on my form and creating a strong personality and character that I am proud of. I came to adore Doodles & Pine and their relationship. I read through all the competitor forms and everyone has an amazing and unique twist on her character and I know anyone you chose will love her very much, and I will be happy for them. Everything happens for a reason - that's how the world works. It rotates on a cause-effect-reward system, and the same goes for Kodak and her life. I am looking forwards to develop her and helping her find a sense of who she is, despite her "not knowing what she is good at" :)
Thank you so much for this opportunity, again.
