It's to note his completely unique almost reptilian voice. Thinking has a lack of quotation marks. No different than the Daleks in my doctor who RP using it to note their different tone of voice or nat using underlined font to note vader's booming voice.

It's annoying. Knock it off.

^ Seconded. Italics is annoying enough when used for thoughts and internal monologues, but at least that is grammatically necessary. If you want your character to have a different voice, then just describe it.

He fears them, for italics are the font that the Old One writes in.

Just to be clear; not even the commie-hunting hick with a banjo is racist in Elfen High.

Pierre's gonna' have one hell of a time.

I don't give a shit. For all I care, you could be using bold or underlined and not a single shit would be given by me over it. So stop bitching.

I decided it was more fun this way.

Oh shit!
I used the wrong word, like a dumbass. As my tired brain can't seem to recall the right word, if it exists, I'll update and put in the real word/personality that sexually describes him in the morning

It doesn't bother me.


Well, that's my character done for the evening. Hopefully I'll be able to get her more involved with other characters when classes start.

Yes, but character development!

Plus, it should make things more interesting, although...they don't really need to be more interesting, to be honest.

Xenophobia? But demons and angels aren't aliens, they're supernatural extra-dimensional beings. He's afraid of little green men and mexicans. Don't see any of them in this RP.

Lewis refuses to get an ultrasound because of his first encounter with modern culture; a movie about alien probes.

So, he's a xenophobe.
