SAMPLE: Link a thread within the past six months. It should be about 15 comments from your character displaying both a solid grasp of the character's voice and introspection. If you wish, you can also write up a sample, as long as it displays both of the requirements.

Re: REVISION REQUEST
While for the most part, he is a carefree and genuinely nice individual. John has something of an asshole streak where his close friends and enemies are concerned, including but not limited to his sole interaction with Caliborn before he became Lord English. Due to his out of control powers, he was forced to endure a storyline and art that had been created by Caliborn. It was because of the terrible art and the terrible representations of his female friends that John was revolted by the display. Eventually, his powers brought him face to face with Caliborn. Unlike his usual tendencies to get to know people before coming to conclusions, John had made the conclusion long before seeing the face behind the art that he hated him and his art. The two immediately fight, ending with John beating him into the ground with his fists until his power teleported him away. John would continue to reference Caliborn and his art with disdain in all future conversations. Even going so far as to smash his phone when Caliborn contacts him through it later.
Where his close friends are concerned, those being Rose, Dave and Jade, he has had instances where he's been disrespectful and rude to them. Dave, his best bro according to both of them, has been the brunt of many a disparaging remark. Mostly in terms of his love of rapping and fondness of puppets like Cal. John has repeatedly explained that he doesn't think rapping is cool, nor does he think puppets are cool. While it borders on problematic, Dave seems to not be bothered by it too much to actually call John on it. But to be perfectly honest, it appears as though a portion of their friendship involves giving the other shit now and then, but Dave making fun of John's favorite movies in comparison to John making fun of Dave's passion for rhyme doesn't seem fair.
When Rose's demeanor and attitude towards their session had altered in response to the knowledge gained from her 'sources', John expressed that he was worried she was "getting away from us". And when Rose took a moment to assure him that she still possessed the same interests, John took the opportunity to snap a joke at her, which she expressed, was not appreciated. While difficult to say, clearly she might have been slightly worried about how John felt about her. The biggest problem with this behavior is that he's rather dismissive of it being an actual problem as he goes on to say he will save her from herself and doesn't see the issues with those implications.
John has been wildly inconsiderate where the feelings of his friends are concerned as well. Take the situation aboard the ship with Jade and Davesprite. The length of the trip took a toll on him and John had an arguably infamous freak-out when he realized he hated Con Air followed by his tantrum when Jade informed him that she and Davesprite had broken up. While John does not say anything specifically mean about Jade, he is quite selfish in making the entire scenario out to be a huge problem for him when in reality; the obvious focus should have been on Jade who took the whole thing in stride.
It's not that John is decidedly malicious. He does care very deeply for his friends but even Karkat and Terezi, both arguably good friends of his, were no exception to this. More in response to their mannerism than their actual acts, John has been on the edge of cruel when it came to dealing with them. He mocked Terezi for being blind and having leetspeak and made it very clear to Karkat that he was avoiding him and even changed his pesterchum handle to get away from him. Eventually, his behavior towards them grew closer to that of friendship the longer their interactions went on. Before that point, John had no shortage of sarcasm for the lot of them until he grew friendlier with them.
The problem it seems, in regards to his close friends is that he takes them somewhat for granted because he assumes they'll always be there no matter what he says to them. These are very poignant examples of his behavior in this regard and for the most part, John is friendly and level-headed. After the events of the Game Over session, he was less sarcastic and rude to his friends, but once he's eased back into normalcy, there's a chance these habits might resurface again.
