Name You'd Choose for It:Summer
Gender:Female
Reason You Want It:Her design makes me happy and reminds me that life is playful. It also can't help that I have a soft spot for scene wolves. :3 I admire her beautiful simplicity, a sparkle dog that doesn't take it too far. She also has a nice use of green and orange together, a color combination that can be frightening if not used the right way. I admire her a lot and she looks like a character I would do a lot of art of. I can't put it into words really, she just fits.
Personality:Life's a little off the wall and hard to understand, you might try mathematic formulas but in the end you have to take a stand.

Honest and straightforward
Intellectual and philosophical
The traits above were on the Sagittarius zodiac sign from
this website and mirror what I believe Summer's personality to be exactly. What is written below is inspired by the Sagittarius zodiac sign, though some of her traits directly clash with it. All writing below is my own, just influenced by the zodiac sign.
Summer is very optimistic and often seems to have an endless flow of energy. She loves trying new things and enjoys exploration and being adventurous, especially when it involves exploring new cultures, traditions, things in nature.
Summer is very right brained, and a global thinker, her mind is always open to new ideas and she likes to think of alternative ways to preform tasks. She's always changing her mind and running into new projects. Some may consider her to be overly-ambitious or uncommitted, as she seems so "spur of the moment", but really, she thinks things through before she jumps into them, though this is rarely obvious. Whatever project or activity Summer has jumped into she takes on with vitality and vigor and these energies continue to be channeled through the whole project. On the other hand, Summer isn't always sure how many projects are too many. Her sometimes overly optimistic view of things can blind her to the reality that she can't do everything.
Summer has strong, steadfast opinions that are rarely swayed, and therefore loves to debate and share her opinion on things. Modest, yet outgoing, Summer loves acting, singing and dancing but won't admit to being particularly good at them. She's almost always truthful, honest and kind to others. If she feels that a person is a fake, or is not truly committed she will often wish to kick them out, yet she rarely has the courage to do so.
Summer can be very loving. She's extremely loyal to causes, projects, and most of all, people. One of her friends could murder someone and her opinion on them wouldn't sway in the slightest. She can be very loyal, loving, generous, selfless and compassionate. She tries to be as sincere and straightforward as possible, except when she knows what she has to say could potentially hurt someone she loves. Even when she does know this she sometime has a hard time hiding it. She tends to wear her heart on her sleeve and it often isn't very difficult to guess her emotions.
Due to her beautiful and strangely well balanced personality, her compassion for others, and her loyalty and generosity Summer is often taken advantage of. When she loves someone, or thinks she does she can be blinded and throw her gift of judgment out the window. Often she will not realize she has/is being used until someone else points it out to her or it's already too late. When this happens Summer will often give them second chances, chances to redeem themselves, which often backfire. She has a hard time realizing this person who seemed so trustworthy and the person she loved so much isn't who she thought they were. She sometimes also has a hard time admitting she was wrong.
She does realize however, that she can't please everybody and that there are some people that are just not worth her time. If they want to have her they have to take her with all her little imperfections, strange realities and little insecurities. She's not one to take crap from people she doesn't care about, though sometimes she's unsure on how to kick them out of a project or her life if need be.
Despite her sometimes loopy, unprepared, all-over-the-place appearance Summer is actually quite intelligent. She often thinks about life and what is fair and just. She dislikes math and science and more school related learning, and prefers to ponder on more abstract questions. She tends to think ahead, and she's often right about what she has to say. She has an open mind and a wide range of abilities and interests, giving her a very "widely ranging" mind. As mentioned above, she's rather quick minded and will jump around and think more rapidly than others. Along with exploring cultures, traditions and places in nature Summer also enjoys exploring new ideas and concepts, but only ones that are to her liking. She is able to open up her mind to realms most others rarely touch, and in this way tends to bring delightfully fresh and new ideas to any situation.
One thing Summer is not as good at is organizing things. Maybe she's organized in her head, but not with her materials. Her workspace and home tend to be very messy and disorganized, although she swears that she knows where everything is. She often loses things and puts things in places that she doesn't usually keep them. She has a hard time keeping a routine.
Likes:Doodling, summer, singing, friends, debating, orange soda, converse, photography, bracelets, dancing, music, Paramore, freedom, acting/theater, fruit loops, exploring, the smell of the outdoors, and swimming.
Dislikes:Winter, closed/tight spaces, bugs, fighting/war, people who are strict and controlling, being cold, lima beans, art thieves, fake people, math, slowing down, not being able to roam, having to worry about tiny facts, numbers, dates and details, and being forced to do something she dislikes.
History: [From Summer's perspective.]
I must admit, my past isn't the most exiting. I could probably be considered a typical teenage girl or whatever. I do have a small story to tell, but few people even think it is significant so I fear that few will read it. I will write it here for my own benefit if for nothing else.
I was born to the average crazy household of two other siblings. I was never very close to either of them, but they were extremely close to each other. They were both females as I was, but their minds worked so differently. They were both introverts, pessimists, and kept to themselves most of the time. Whenever they briefly came out of their little corner they would share nothing of interest to me. It would be gibberish or a theory I had come up with long ago. If wasn't either of those things it was something that had to do with math. I hated math. Along with our other differences we were also different in appearance. I was bright and colorful, yet with an eye pleasingly simple design, while my two sisters, while not twins, both bore dark, somewhat over-dramatic designs. Our differences didn't stop there though. I had tons of friends, was energetic, playful, loved color, nature, dancing singing and anything social, while my sisters had very few interests. If it wasn't domino's, a card or board game, or some other quiet activity than they would avoid it like the plague. So even though I grew up with two sisters, I felt so alone, so cut off from them and their secrets and codes. I was more of an only child, and I think my parents favored me a bit more. I was into at least fifty activities and I had tones of friends, when they asked me to do something i would actually complain about doing it instead of curling up in the corner with a book and refusing to respond. I would get all the toys, games, whatever I wanted from my parents. You rarely hear stories from the spoiled or favorite child's perspective do you? But here I am, the favorite out of three siblings.
As I grew I can't say I changed dramatically other than in maturity and my understanding of things. I still had my basic personality and didn't go through a huge crisis like many animals claim to have gone through. My sisters however grew more irritated by each other. The once inseparable pair now stormed angrily about looking for revenge. I felt like I was two-timing the pair. One would come to me and rant about the other and then the other would come and do the same. It wasn't the most pleasant of experiences, but i lived through it. Eventually my sisters grew so angered by each other they had to be moved into separate rooms. The thing was, no one knew why they were becoming so angry, so disobedient, so.....different than they used to be. Every doctor or psychiatrist we saw blamed it on hormones etc. But it wasn't that, and you'd have to know the pair to understand just how we knew it wasn't. As time went on the pair couldn't even see each other without exploding emotionally/mentally. It became so bad the two seemed to go into panic attacks when they saw each other, it was like a phobia. One day my mother decided she had had enough and moved their bedrooms back together, insisting that this would help them learn how to tolerate each other. The move only made matters worse however, and the two became completely distraught. We had to take them to so many therapists, doctors and specialists we were on the verge of giving up before we found someone who actually thought they might be able to solve the case without blaming it on hormones etc. Strangely enough, her methods worked! No suicide, no lifelong damage, no nothing. The two returned home as good as new, though the therapist wouldn't reveal what she had done or what had made them become so....repellent of each other. We just accepted the two back into the family and life continued on. That's pretty much my life up until now in a nutshell. Now I'm 16, in case that's important to any of you. :3
Art of Summer (by me) I understand that by adopting this creature I take full responsibility for it.
