So... tell me again what I'm supposed to be doing.
I have already explained it to you.
I know. Please do it again.
Are you, by any chance, attempting to stall?
Wha- No! No, not at all!
If you insist... when you enter that door, you'll see a room. It will be empty except for a swivel chair and a large machine with headphones attached. Do not touch the machine. (Aww.) It will begin reciting questions. Nobody will be hearing this, it is merely for informational purposes, and when it begins you are to put on the headphones as well. I want you to answer them all completely and honestly. Don't leave out any details.
For everything?
For everything. Now enter; I've got something to do. (Unfortunately... alas, the others are just far too recognizable.)
... Alright, fine. (You'd better be serious about the 'no one will hear this' part, Boss...)
(Pillows.)
( ) = thoughts.
[ ] = actions.
My parents call Me...
My friends call Me...
i'M not an it! i'M a...
i aM a...
i don't need wrinkle cream! I'M...
do you think I need a diet?
My eMotional disposition?

[ ] = actions.
My parents call Me...
My full name, I suppose you want? My full name is Henry "Mack" Hokage. If you really insist on using a first name, at least abbreviate it to 'Hank'.
...And if that's not what you want, too bad.
My friends call Me...
M'number identification is CC-1100. I've got no idea why the Cs are there if it's a Number ID. Or, alternatively, call me Hank. Now go away. [MACK glares at you fiercely, mouth pulled into a frown and visible eye narrowed even more than it usually is.]
...
Or, at least, that's what I'm supposed to be saying. Let's pretend 'my friends' wasn't there, and was replaced with 'the general public'. In that case, it would be Mack. I actually got that nickname way back in my first days as a Firehead. I happened to be the first male Team Magma member to make it to Admindom - Marge beat me, of course. [MACK rolls his eyes.] As you may have figured out by now, she isn't particularly fond of me, and so she went out of her way to do a little research and find a stupid-sounding nickname that made at least a tiny bit of sense. Since 'mack' is also slang for 'man', and I was the first male Admin... you can put two and two together, can't you?
i'M not an it! i'M a...
I'm a boy, just as I said a few seconds ago.
i aM a...
I'm a Firehead, the less formal name for 'Team Magma Administrative Group'. We started with TMAG, but then people who were… outside of the organization, shall we say (TEAM AQUA), started generalizing it to 'teabag', and that wasn’t taken very well by anybody... well, mostly anybody. Some people did get a kick out of it (including me...).
i don't need wrinkle cream! I'M...
Twenty years, ten months. No need for wrinkle cream here, people -- or for a very long time to come, for that matter. Nice try.
do you think I need a diet?
Physical description? Someone must have forgotten to put a video camera in this thing. [MACK raps the MACHINE with his knuckles before continuing.]
In any case, what I wear is really just a glorified version of the standard-issue male Magma Grunt outfit with some added functions and doohickeys. One of these added functions is attached to the hood of my red hoodie-sweatshirt-cape deal over here. [He points to the pair of small black horns sticking out of the top of his hood. He taps one of them with a black-gloved finger - the left horn - and then quite simply twists it and pulls it off.] It's really a lighter. Now, you may be wondering why on Earth a Magma Admin would have a lighter around when they've probably got Fire Pokémon on hand too? Well, I bet you weren't counting on the fact that this is a special lighter. [MACK grins smugly.] This lighter is not like ordinary lighters, because ordinary lighters cannot burn images and words on a special type of paper, some of which I have stored... [he replaces the LIGHTER and holds up his right arm, on which a thick red armband is strapped around.] ...here! [He fiddles with a clasp near the bottom of the armband, which pops open to reveal a roll of paper and a jagged edge from which to rip it off with.] For regular paper, though, it just burns it like anything else.
Yes. Well, in between the horns of this hood is a strange ovular thing that doesn't serve a purpose at all past looking cool.[MACK shrugs the conundrum off casually.] That's all for my hood, really, past the fact that it's kind of pointy at the top. My... eyes are blackish-gray, and my hair is blond. I've got it in a hairstyle so that most of it falls into my face and covers a lot of the left side of it. I've gotten used to this, as I've had it like this for a while now, and I'm not telling you why.
[The MACHINE makes a low whirring noise, almost like a sound of disbelief.] Don't start acting up now, you. Aforementioned hood is attached to a hoodie-cape shirt thing. The cape is attached to the hoodie at the shoulders. [MACK hooks one finger around the end of the cape and pulls his arm upward, flaring the cape out to one side as he does so.] On the front of this hoodie is the Team Magma logo, plastered right up there for all to see. The logo for all to see that includes the triple-volcano design (that accurately reveals the location of our supposedly-secret Hoennbase). [MACK snorts.]
Yeah. Well, the hoodie only has short sleeves, and the tight black shirt that's under it has longer sleeves, so you see some of that thing. Then we have the whole paper-storing armband again and my black-and-gray, standard-issue Magma Utility Belt. My pants are charcoal gray and not particularly tight, but they have two light gray bands going around each leg. The lower one is thicker than the upper. Then I've got heat-resistant boots which have sides that really look like my armbands.
...Well, that's half of my outfit explained in intricate detail and the other half totally rushed. I hope you have a video camera in there, I really do, because... well... uh, never mind.
My eMotional disposition?
Hoo, here's the fun part. Asking someone to describe their own personality. You know what? I've never understood that part of any application for anything. Half the time it's not very trustworthy at all. So I'm going to just go in here now... (Where does that thing keep going off to...?) [MACK pulls a laptop from somewhere behind his back.] Aha! Here it is. Hammerspace can be so difficult sometimes. [MACK loads it up triumphantly, types in a few things, then smirks at the MACHINE.] Okay. So, just to give you an honest description of me, let's just use Maxie's (private) notes on the subject instead! [He presses a button, and a cord pops out of the side of the laptop. After peering at the MACHINE for a moment and then plugging it in, he reclines in the swivel chair comfortably as-]Henry Hokage - or 'Mack', as he's commonly referred to within the organization - is rather young, in both physical and emotional pursuits. Nowhere near as mature as Marge comes off to be most of the time, despite the fact that they're not very far apart in age. Mack is, admittedly, an occasional liar and something of a braggart; if there's anything he can do better than anyone else, and that person happens to be someone he doesn't like very much (a wonderful example of this is Marge), then he will exploit his skills and use them to either mock, annoy, prank, or downright insult the other person. He cannot, however, be called 'unloyal' or 'cowardly' - he does most anything I ask of him, regardless of the mission, and can be counted on to get it done... eventually. These things, along with the fact that he's more skilled with technology and creating tricks of the mind than anyone else I know personally, are enough to keep him on the team - despite the obvious personality flaws.
...I haven't read any of that yet, mind you. And don't ask how I got into his files... or else. And don't tell anyone either. Got that? [He takes a very serious expression upon his features for a few seconds before reverting back to the usual wry smile.]
