WE ALL HAVE STRENGTHS.
Scout’s strengths can more often than not be found in her flaws, her cold demeanour and ever so slightly twisted views on what she considers to be fascinating certainly give her an edge in her line of work. She’s fascinated by people, not only psychologically but physically, gore is absolutely exhilarating which is a pretty nifty strength is for a bounty hunter when force is needed. She’s also brilliantly skilled in reading other people; she perhaps takes more of an interest in them than would be healthy and is no stranger to the hobby of people watching. Her inept ability to draw conclusions from the slightest of muscle tremors makes it somewhat difficult to deceive her. Despite being just five foot even in height Scout here is more than capable of taking care of herself, if not down to her skill in concealing anything sharp that may be of use but in other people’s underestimations of her abilities. She has a habit of sneaking under the radar however her strengths seem to be limited under the title of her occupation alone, they make for a rather warped being.
WE ALL HAVE OUR WEAKNESSES.
Distractions fall heavily upon her weaknesses; Scout is one for getting caught up whilst attempting to carry out a well thought through plan. Her intellectual abilities far outweigh what she is actually capable of carrying out meaning she will calculate a hit down to the very last detail however seldom will she follow her own blue prints. Pretty faces and shiny objects bring her down far too often. Scout is also perhaps a little too emotional for her own good, despite appearing disconnected from those around her she can become a highly vengeful individual and a simple tracking can turn into something far bloodier if she takes a dislike to a certain figure. She is swayed too much by her own opinion however as long as she gets paid the job is seldom left undone. In tomorrow’s world it is perhaps also a weakness for someone such as herself to take a particular dislike to firearms. Things that go boom aren’t high on her list however her collection of lethal weaponry is colourful without the noisy damaging things. Though she is more than capable of using a firearm she never holds one however has yet to feel the need or be scared into carrying one or even owning one for that matter.
ADMIT IT OR NOT, WE'VE ALL BEEN AFRAID.
Scout has an innate fear of other people; she doesn’t jump at the sight of another person however she will usually work best and choose to work alone and remain alone. For someone who studies closely the habits of others she doesn’t often like what she sees and the human race is far too conceited for her like, she fears placing her trust in another and finding she has down wrong. Her dislike of things that go bang originates from the death of her father, upon seeing him shot as a child it has caused her to avoid them altogether however this fear she has had to become skilled at concealing. Instead of transforming into some masked vigilante from the event she simply decided to track people down for a living. Though Scout will consider herself fearless, this facade is short lived when faced with intimacy. There is a level that may be tolerable enough for the odd fling, perhaps even something a little drawn out however her solitary lifestyle and detached habits leave her rather dreading the thought of real intimacy.
AND WE HAVE OUR HABITS, GOOD & BAD.
Everyone has their fair share of bad habits however because of her lack of human contact or closeness rather; there isn’t anyone to point hers out. Scout is an awful conversationalist, she has the intellect and the ability but she just doesn’t seem to connect with people in any way and seems to be constantly considering matters other than the one at hand. Her language is blunt and she has no tact whatsoever. Her smirks are also infamous and for those on her bounty list they are probably widely known. There’s a certain snarky air to her especially when empowered by her job, she takes a certain amount of pride in being good at what she does and that irritating smirk proves as much. Of course out of context and when not under threat it could be seen as somewhat endearing but not to anyone who has learned to loath her. Another habit neither good nor bad is her lack of motion, some people fidget and twitch so much it becomes irritating but then there’s Scout who at times doesn’t seem to be conscious due to her lack of fidgeting. Call it grace or whatever you like there’s just something odd about her habit of staying sill for long periods of time.
Scout has a nasty habit of annoying the shit out of those attempting to piss her off, you can pick at her until the sun goes down but when she wants to be she’s horrendously laid back. Not much ever reaches the surface; even absolute rage can be confined into a calculated snarl and it is this bad habit of being so hard to read that others may find somewhat tiresome.
THEN THERE ARE THE THINGS THAT BUG US.
Arrogance, she has seen it far too much in those she was paid to knock off and therefore has grown to take a certain dislike to the trait. Despite this and being an absolute train wreck of a person arrogance also has the effect of attracting her, such a conflict is annoying but there is no bounty hunter law to state you can’t romp with those you are paid to trace. For someone who will openly admit to being out for her own cause, Scout absolutely hates those who consider themselves giving and protecting whilst ultimately they too have selfish motives. It is probably a universal trait built into a person to in fact have that selfish need to protect one’s self however she believes if people wish to show themselves as selfless they should truly be. Another peeve that really scratches at her flesh is the annoying habit of betrayal in others, when searching for certain people she will like any bounty hunter at times be helped by tip offs however it irks her how often these are from trusted companions of those in question.
AND, HEY, WE CAN ALL DREAM.
Her dreams would be considered by most to be limited and hardly worth dreaming about at all however Scout will simply point out that they are realistic and to some extent attainable. She dreams of being able to expand her knowledge of the habits of others and become greater at studying the character of others. Perhaps not considered worthy of dreams by most but it is certainly within reach. She aspires to become better at her job, quicker and better skilled. At the age of twenty three she still has a great deal to learn and recognises this despite her current skill. Scout also aspires to form some sort of connection, gain a sidekick or simply a trusted friend however it is this aspiration she considered to be a little farfetched.

Mundane and perhaps a little predictable, I’m not vain enough to consider my life special or in fact worthy of a story. My father was a solitary man, he liked to avoid conflict and subsequently his avoidance led to him being placed in charge of my care and my mother becoming nonexistent somehow. She went off to do whatever she cared to do whilst the poor, unsuspecting man was thrust into fatherly duties. He was good, insightful and I learned a great deal from him but I’m not going to pretend for one second that we were closer than what most would consider acquaintances. We liked our own space and it wasn’t too great a loss when he died, it wasn’t a day to celebrate but it wasn’t a day to be marked either, I can’t even remember the date. I was good at reading people, I was good at figuring them out and when it called for I have a distinct taste for threat making and gore so it was only natural I follow the career of bounty hunting. It doesn’t make me particularly loyal or give me any such qualities but I’m healthy, I’m alive and I even take a little joy out of it, it’s like a game, utterly enjoyable.
