what type of fool are you: sunrisenfool's apprentices edition
Anatole: Fool in denial of being a fool. Genuinely intelligent and smart, even if you don't consider yourself particularly so — you do think people sometimes are uncommonly stupid. Fearsome instinct to win and has no fucking clue what giving up means. Would drink three pots of coffee to fight god, claiming it is because there cannot be two of you there. Will call you an idiot for tripping on the street and then run into a lamppost. Would rather die than confess they have feelings for someone, but ends up doing it anyway. A fool of the Petty variety: actually a menace to half of society, the half which doesn't agree with you, and living proof smaller things hold more rage. Often, being well prepared and well educated will cover the fact you too are capable of foolery, until you overlook a detail or mingle your languages, and come off as unintelligible.
Leonore: Proud fool, in every possible sense of the word. Both proud of being a notorious dumbass who does dangerous shit to see the outcome of it, has never followed a direction in your life, and have an open heart to the adventure part of life (which sometimes just means doing the most stupid impulse you get, like eating acrylic paint to see what it tastes like), AND a mean-mouthed proud person. Still, deep down you care, sort of. Big advocate of taking it slow, but taking it. Will wear the most ridiculous clothes available as your head is empty, your heart is full, and you are gay. "It's not about should or shouldn't* but can or cannot" *unless someone feelings will be hurt unjustly. The stupidest when thottin, which you're also proud of.
Medea: OVERESTIMATION TOMFOOLERY BABEY. Saying 'I've got this' about something you absolutely do not have, and saying 'I'll wing it' about something you absolutely will not wing. Looks less of a fool because of your notorious fancy, decorated AND slightly overpriced planner. You know what common sense is, but you also know sometimes you just gotta take it as a suggestion. Not petty, nor specially competitive, but headstrong about proving you can complete challenges put in front of you, even if said challenge is jumping from one place to the other in a somewhat dangerous scenario, causing you to break your arm. Haven't lost a tooth out of sheer, dumb luck.
Sabine: The reigning monarchs of fools. If the Merriam-Webster dictionary had a definition for 'thembo' attached to a picture to exemplify, your picture is not there solely because God bested you at the game of life by making you a tall twig. Still, you have more strength than you should've given your body type, which causes you to either be helpful, or breaking things you shouldn't break either on accident or to see what happens, but mostly to see what happens. Scarily competitive when put in an actually competitive scenario. Produces logical deductions, but at heart knows nothing: an absolutely clueless fool, you don't know why we're here, nor what day is it, nor why did you fall down the small hill and into the stream, but you did and it brought you joy, and maybe that is why you're here, and that makes you the wisest.
