Full Name: Geoffrey Chaucer Fandom: A Knight's Tale. Not history. That would kind of kick my ass. Age: 33 Height: your answer here Build: Long and lean Hair: Blond. Almost reddishly so in sunlight. Eyes: Blue. Nationality: About as English as it gets. Job: A writer. Personality: While Geoff's quick wit and sarcastic delight in pointing out the failings of humankind - namely, particular specimens of it, ones that are in his immediate vicinity - might make one peg him as a cynic, the tastefully flamboyant and generally amiable fellow is wholly an optimistic. He believes in a good time and in the inner good of all mankind. He just happens to, you know, be better than you in basically everything the two of you decide to do, and he will probably very cleverly say so. Maybe I like him overmuch or am indulging in hyperbole? This is fiction, people, and that is therefore a skill! He does have a few weaknesses. Um. He kind of likes to gamble. A lot. Fortunately, this is paired with a considerable lack of modesty, so it could be a lot worse. Life Story: In the opening words of this introduction to his Canterbury Tales: "Little is known about Chaucer personally, although one must be very perverse not to like him after having read his poetry." Ha! Take that!
Any takers? RED-HEADED FOOLS NAMED MERCUTIO PERHAPS? Ho!
...Yeah, I know I didn't need another one, shuttup.

((...Huh, now I wish I'd seen A Knight's Tale. Because Chaucer is awesome.))

You sir, seem a perfect scoundrel! I like you. I am biased by my suethor but I like you. Hardly, my friend, a perfect scoundrel. The statement is in itself contradictory. But hardly, also, will I complain at being termed in one self-negating sentence two of the highest compliments I believe a man can be paid. And, after all, I like you, too. Also, perhaps, biased by my suethor, who, I do believe, made me simply that we might drink together. To which I do not object at all.

Seems a mite unfair, doesn't it? But at the same time, who am I to complain of such a match?
