Hehehe Allen, you freak. <3<br/><br/><br/>LAUSTIN<br/><br/>1.) Politics and philosophy<br/>Laustin is unconcerned with politics, so long as it serves the purposes of science. When political disputes hinder scientific or technological progress, he gets very frustrated. He would probably favor a communistic system, because he believes that the same degree of technology and convenience should be available to everyone. At the same time, however, he favors efficiency over fairness, so communism would probably present an equal number of problems. In general, Laustin had a fairly privileged upbringing and doesn't think about politics very much.<br/><br/>Philosophically, the presence of the demons fascinates him. It's in humanity's best interest to fight back and attempt to destroy them, but he doesn't necessarily believe that such actions are justified. That is to say, there isn't enough information to make an educated decision about which side is just.<br/><br/>2.) Habits and hobbies<br/>Laustin is an interesting creature of many habits. When he first started working at ADAMS, he would show up to work wearing oversized courderoy pants, gigantic knit sweaters, a wool scarf, house slippers, and a lab coat. He was told repeatedly that he was violating dress code, but he did it anyways. Laustin has extremely poor blood circulation and tends to wear a lot of layers, except when doing delicate electrical work. Nowadays he wears<em>fitted</em>sweaters and courderoy pants, thanks to his late wife. He wears proper shoes around ADAMS HQ but wears slippers in the lab.<br/><br/>He snacks on sweet things and milk coffee almost constantly. It's rare that a box of sweets isn't directly adjacent to his hand. He bites his hangnails compulsively. He has several nervous tics (scratching behind his ears, rubbing his elbows, cracking his knuckles) that he does when he's uncomfortable in a social situation, but he's learned to control them over the years. He plucks his beard hairs by hand, also compulsively. The list goes on and on.<br/><br/>As far as hobbies go, Laustin enjoys tinkering and building in his free time, mostly mechanical work although he is a decent programmer. While Marie was alive, they would go to the firing range or play cards, but he rarely does these things anymore.<br/><br/>3.) Favorite food and drink<br/>Coffee with cream and at least three scoops of sugar. Chocolate mousse cake.<br/><br/>4.) Favorite music<br/>Laustin does not listen to music very often, but if he did, he would probably like baroque and minimalist music.
