hh_mirrorA tall, statuesque woman, so blonde her hair looked to be nearly white and dressed in elegant looking black pants and an equally flattering black halter top, appeared in the Sorting Room. She didn't look confused or disoriented, and she moved with grace and purpose to the table holding the application. She picked up the application and skimmed over it, pausing every now and then to raise an eyebrow or smile faintly. With an amused glance at the quill pen, she began to write her answers.
1. What is your favorite cheese? Why is it your favorite?
An interesting question. Humans assumed that as mechanical beings, Cylons didn't eat. This was true for the Raiders and Centrurions. In her case, it was a false assumption due to her being biomechanical; food was every bit as necessary for her survival as it was for any animal. In my time on Caprica, I became very fond of an aged soft cheese made near Delphi. It went very well with wine.
"It was quite good cheese, wasn't it?" The voice was male and only audible to her. Were someone to be watching her, they would only see Caprica herself. In Caprica's mind (which was at the moment allowing the room to be seen as it really was--there would be time enough for projection once she had satisfied herself with the truth of things) there was another person with her--Gaius Baltar, in fact. It wasn't the real man, who was (as far as she knew) back on Galactica. But he stayed with her still, offering his acid commentary in a way that the real Gaius never had. She ignored him and moved on to the next question.
2. Who would you kill first, Barney or Carrottop?
She frowned as she wrote her answer. I would prefer to avoid any more killing. Murder is a sin in the eyes of God.
"That's never stopped you before." Baltar moved into her field of vision: calm, collected, casually lighting a cigarette and smiling sardonically. "Even when you were trying to be peaceful you killed, your kind as well as mine."
She gritted her teeth and underlined the word "sin" twice.
3. What time is it where you are?
On Galactica, I believe it was early evening. I couldn't be positive. My cell was kept lit at all times. Here, it seems to be... She stopped writing and looked around for an indication. "Midday," Gaius offered. Midday, she wrote.
4. If you were Albus Dumbledore returned from the dead, which member of the Order of the Phoenix would you sexually harass? How would you harass them? If you are Albus Dumbledore, please answer as if you were Sirius Black.
Gaius smirked. "There's a question that's right up your alley." She shot him a glare--looking for all intents and purposes to be scowling at empty air--before writing her answer.
I don't know who these people are and cannot offer a satisfactory answer. I will say that I would prefer to seduce than to harass; I believe that it is a more enjoyable experience for all involved.
"Are you going to tell them about how you destroy everything they love when you're finished with them?"
She didn't have an answer for that.
5. If you are pushing to be in:
A. Slytherin - please state the clever, witty name of the bar in which you bartend, in the dark.
What a strange question. What did bartending have to do with magic? "More than you'd expect. A good cocktail made by someone who knows their business--now that's magic."
Once again stringently ignoring the invisible Gaius, she paused to think before writing: Would "Sixes" be clever and witty enough?
B. Gryffindor – Debate whether Harry should ultimately end up married to Fred or George. Use examples from a variety of world mythologies to bolster your argument.
God is a loving God who encourages peace and love among His children. I don't see why they should have to choose if they all get along well with each other. Polygamous relationships can be very fulfilling. Yes, there's a faint smile there. Even if the she had initially gone along with it to keep Gaius safe, because Threes were as a rule dangerous, the one she had briefly loved had been so... challenging. Even if the real Gaius was just a shadow of who he had used to be, even if she hated who he'd become, she still loved him, because... well, he was Gaius. And even if the Gaius in her head constantly needled her about God, about her role in the destruction of the Colonies, about everything... yes, she still loved him.
She didn't look back at Gaius to see what sort of face he was making. She wasn't sure she'd like it.
C. Ravenclaw – You guys are supposed to be smart. Explain why my desk is inundated with paperwork at all times, even though I’m constantly disposing of it.
If this is because you are in a position of power, you should expect all the paperwork that accompanies it. I can't offer any suggestions other than to assign assistants to the minor papers if you are comfortable with their competence.
D. Hufflepuff – Prove you are not useless.
She frowned down at the application and sighed. None of God's children are useless. As for me, I was created specifically to be useful. I have completed the assignments given to me by my own people, and I have done my best to foster a peace between humans and Cylons, even though I think that both may have lost their way. I have done terrible things, but I have done good as well. While there are many people who would argue against the results of the things I've done, both good and bad, I doubt any would call me "useless."
"You're terrific in bed, too. Write that down."
"I will not," she muttered.
Gaius leaned against the table and pouted. "You're no fun any more."
6. Offer a bribe to the members of this community so that they will not squib you.
I don't have anything material to offer. Even if she had left the Resurrection Ship with anything, it would have been confiscated before she had been thrown into Galactica's brig. If a bribe is absolutely necessary, I'm sure we can work something out.
"Oh, please," said Gaius, rolling his eyes. Again, Caprica made a point of ignoring him.
"I have read the hogwarts_hocus faq, and understand it is a crazy, cracktastic sorting community and RPG. C6
I have read the hogwarts_hocus rules and agree to abide by each and every one of them. C6
I agree to be a good sport and not get my knickers in a bunch. C6
One day, marmalade will rule the world. C6"
((Caprica Six's head!Gaius is not perceivable to anyone else. Not even other versions of her have shown any awareness that he is there. So while it's obvious that occasionally she's talking to or listening to someone who's not there, it's basically as if she's talking to a made-up invisible friend--no other presence would be dectected. As far as I know, anyway. Additionally, Head!Gaius occasionally knows things that he should have no way of knowing about people they've never met, and tells Caprica little hints to move in the direction he/she/they want to take. He doesn't do it often and I will, of course, ask the mun before having him butt into a conversation like that.))
