Describe your activity:
While I do acknowledge and admit that I am not as active as I used to be anymore compared to the past, being that, as I’ve said before in my previous applications I need to focus on the last year of senior highschool as I am applying to Colleges and Universities, I currently rate myself at a 7 out of 10 due to IRL responsibilities. But! I did learn to manage my time now though due to said things, (cough bad time management back then wooo…) as though not online everyday, I did dedicate certain days to SRP and get on whenever I can if I have nothing else to do especially in school. Other than that though, I'm pretty much active on Discord 24/7, and can be contacted regardless even if I'm in school, the only time I won’t reply is when I’m sleeping.

What is your motivation to apply for reporter?:
One of my motivations for applying once more to the Reporter Faction is my genuine longing for both the faction itself and the individuals who make up it as it holds a special place in my heart. Of course, my motivation to re-apply is not just me wanting to be with the faction again, but a drive to improve my writing skills despite my existing experiences. I want to still be able to produce pieces for the community on the server again with a newly improved style that I’ve been working on and to be able to share it with hopes that those who read it, will be interested in the articles that I plan to write if I do get accepted.
Do you have any experience with writing? What is your relationship with writing?:
Yes, I do in fact have experience with writing! I was previously part of the Reporter Faction here for more than a year, before having to leave due to personal reasons, as now I wish to return and improve upon my skills in writing articles for the servers due to looking back at my old reports, and may or may not be disappointed on how I’ve written them.
But of course, before I joined Reporter Faction back then, I actively participated in the Journalism Club throughout my junior highschool years at my school. And now, as a senior highschool student, I serve as the Press Corps’ Senior Editor in my school's Model United Nations (MUN) Club. Overseeing and approving articles created by my lovely junior members, offering guidance and training them in covering our mock conferences.
Outside school, I compete in international MUN competitions, representing various news agencies like CNN, Washington Post, etc., These experiences help me improve my writing skills in not just mock conferences, but normal writing too as I tend to use my skills in lore and such like my character biographies that can be viewed by everyone on the website!
Are you aware of - and will follow - the set of rules provided to you?:
Yes, I am aware of the rules that I have to follow upon joining the faction, and I promised to keep up with what I said, and I will do so until the end. I will do my absolute best to follow not just faction rules, but SRP rules as well, to learn from my mistakes, to not repeat them, and to follow them to the best of my abilities.
Why should we accept you over others?:
Even though I am aware I'm leaning toward becoming a lawyer in the future, I still have a strong passion for writing, which is evident from my past experiences. I yearn to write for the server again once more, to have a new type of writing instead of the one I am so used to, I think what makes me stand out now and should be accepted over others is because of my skills, my background, and my love for writing. I enjoyed being part of the faction before, and I believe I can bring valuable contributions to the team once again.
Do you understand you have to stay completely neutral with all reports? (Your report can't have any OOC or IC bias towards a specific group.)
I understand and will make sure that I do not have any biases when reporting, especially if it is in regard to any gangs, etc.
Do you trust that you will be able to stay active and complete the monthly quota?:
Yes! I promise now that I have more free time, I will do more reports and make sure to post at least a report every month if I get accepted.
Summarise what you imagine work as a reporter is:
Well from personal experience as a person who used to be a reporter, we write articles to tell everyone about what's happening on the server. From events, random topics, and updates around town. It's a way to keep everyone updated, especially those who couldn't be there when things happened. Our goal is not just to inform but also to make our reports entertaining for everyone.

Unveiling the Shadows: Former Akihito Clan Member Opens Up in Exclusive Interview, Revealing Town's Mysterious Past
By: Sky Hanazono Edgeworth
xx/xx/23
Karakura News has managed to have an interview with an ex-Akihito Clan member, providing a rare glimpse into the workings of the now non-existent group as they shed light on their personal experiences in their time at the Clan. The Akihito Clan, once a well-known presence in the shadows of this town, is now a relic of the past, its disbandment filled with mystery.
For privacy reasons, their face has been blocked, and their voice altered, preserving their identity.

[!] As the video started, a familiar figure—perhaps that of an ex-reporter— sat on the opposite of Sky. [!]
‘SEA’: “Certainly, my dear. Most knew me by the nickname ‘SEA’ back then, but for privacy, I'll keep my real name under wraps,” they chuckled, tilting their head while reclining on the sofa.
‘SEA’: “I used to be part of the Akihito Clan in my youth but departed when I realized it wasn't the life for me.”
Sky: hummed thoughtfully, raising a brow, “How exactly did you become involved with the Akihito Clan?” [2]
‘SEA’: They shifted in his seat momentarily before slowly speaking, “…It was during college. I had recently returned to Karakura after a few months away following the loss of someone. I was, lost, searching for purpose when your brother offered me a place in the Clan. So, I accepted.”
Sky: “Ah,” surprise was in her voice at the mention of her brother, staring at him before she continued, “Were you aware of what the Akihito Clan exactly was? Or were you surprised?” [3]
‘SEA’: “Well, it was. I was genuinely surprised to discover their workings when I joined,” they admitted, “But I learned throughout my time despite it.”
Sky: leaned forward, curiosity gleaming in her eyes despite the sunglasses she wore, “Is that so? did you ever find the purpose you were searching for when you joined then?” [4]
‘SEA’: A thoughtful feeling was on their movements before he responded, giving a small nod, “In a way, yes, I found a semblance of purpose when I was in the Clan.”
Sky: “Were there any moments that made you question your decision to leave the Akihito Clan?” … “Did you ever regret it?” [5]
‘SEA’: Their body language shifted, a slight silence before they finally spoke, “There were moments, certainly. Leaving behind a part of your past always comes with its own set of doubts.”
Sky: “Can you share a memorable experience or challenge you faced during your time with the Akihito Clan?” [6]
‘SEA’: “Well, there was one, I think everyone is familiar with it, especially those who have been in this town for quite a while. The Akihito-Kishi War.”
‘SEA’: "It was a time when the fight for power and ideologies was at its peak in this town. Many were injured during it… Including me.” the weight of memories was obvious in their body, though despite it, their voice remained calm.
‘SEA’: "It was a time when the fight for power and ideologies was at its peak in this town. Many were injured during it… Including me.” the weight of memories was obvious in their body, though despite it, their voice remained calm.
Sky: "...And where did you fit into all of this? What role did you play during the Akihito-Kishi War?" [7]‘SEA’: “I was a soldier on the front lines, at the powerplant, that’s where it all happened, and in the end, we still lost.”
Sky: Let out a small breath she didn’t know she was holding, changing the topic for the sake of the other person, “How did your departure from the Akihito Clan impact your relationships, both within and outside the organization?” [8]
‘SEA’: “Leaving had its repercussions.” they lifted their left hand, showing the missing pinky, “Some ties weakened, while others endured the test of time.”
Sky: “Is there a part of your Akihito Clan experience that you've deliberately kept secret until now?” [9]
‘SEA’: a small chuckle escaped out of their mouth again, clasping their hands together now, “There are always aspects better left in the shadows, my dear Sky.”
Sky: froze at that for a moment, yet relaxed right after, “Reflecting on your journey, do you have any regrets regarding your association with the Akihito Clan?” [10]
‘SEA’: “Regrets, yes, but they're woven into the fabric of who I am now. I wouldn't be here without them.” they said with a shake of their head.
Sky: “Thank you for doing this interview, ‘SEA’. Your insights into the town's past workings and your personal experiences, hopefully, would be useful to those who listen to this. Do you have any final words you'd like to share?”‘SEA’: “Hmm, not really, except to be cautious in this town. You never know what might happen at every turn,” they chuckled.
[!] The video would end there. [!]
