Third Person:

Knives couldn’t believe what was happening at that moment. Scott Pilgrim, her first love, ended their relationship. Her heart felt like it was breaking into two smaller pieces. Knives contemplated on their relationship during the past few weeks. She thought to herself, “Why is he doing this to me? What’s wrong?” Then she realized that it’s almost dinnertime. She had to go back home in time to eat.

After the meal, she went up into her room. At the moment, it’s her comfort zone. Knives continued her contemplation while she paced back and forth. She was trying to figure out what went wrong. She asked herself, “Why did he break up with me?” However, she began to ask more questions with a slightly louder tone, “Did I talk too? Am I too clingy? What’s wrong with me?” Knives was trying to figure it out and solve the problem. She retorted, “Ugh! Even Calculus is easier to solve than the heartbreak I’m going through right now.”

It wasn’t Knives’s fault. It’s just that Scott fell in love with another girl, while still dating her. Obviously, Knives didn’t know about this… yet. Anyway, Knives still continued to walk down memory lane, until she noticed that something wasn’t quite right. “He started to ignore me. He looked like he was listening, but he seemed out of it,” she recalled from her observations, “Why was he like that?”

Suddenly, in her mind, she connected the dots, “Well, I asked him about that girl in the library… who was delivering some package.” Knives had no clue about her identity, but she was Ramona Flowers, who captivated Scott’s attention. Now she wanted to find out. She planned ahead, “I’ll meet Scott tomorrow. I have questions to ask him anyway. I need to know why he broke up with me.” Then she added, “More importantly, does he know that girl?” Knives was determined to find Scott one last time to set things straight, work things out, and hopefully win his heart back.

Can we have another first person sample, please?

Scott cheated on me.

Even worse, he cheated on Ramona. I realized that I shouldn’t have been mad at her. It’s his fault, not hers. Why did he hurt us?

I fought for him. I even changed my style for him, but that didn’t work out well. He didn’t really care about me. He didn’t notice me. Well, maybe he did, but not as much as her.

He truly cared about her. He willingly defended his love for her by defeating all of her exes. If that wasn’t love, then what was it?

I wished someone would do that for me, even though I’m still capable of defending myself. At least, I’d know that I’m worth fighting for.

I realized that I fought for the wrong guy. Scott wasn’t so much of a bad boyfriend. Okay, what he did was terrible, but he’s a better friend, really. More importantly, he and Ramona totally deserve a second chance.

Wallace was right. I’m too good for him.

I still deserve better. I want someone who’d fight for me and actually love me for who I am.

I’ve made my decision. Let him go with her. I’ll be fine. I’m too cool for him anyway.

Besides, that someone is still out there. I’m sure of it. I just haven’t met him yet.

We're sorry, but this application has been rejected. We feel that you do not have a solid grasp on the character, and would recommend reviewing the movie to get a better sense of the characterization and manner of speech it provides for Knives. Please feel free to reapply!
