Description

Microphone, labeled The Loud and Proud ## Personality At the start of the season, Microphone began as one of the most level-headed newbies. She is upbeat, kind, and especially open to meeting others. Mic's energetic temperament makes her a determined and competitive contestant who aims to do her best and do well in challenges. However, most of Mic's positive attributes involve her voice getting irritatingly loud to some, which can annoy others easily and view her more as an annoyance than a good ally. Despite this, Microphone initially is proud and holds herself in high regard. Microphone is generally outspoken and honest about her opinions, noting that Soap's pizza looked unappetizing in "Cooking for the Grater Good" and affronting Dough in "A Kick in the Right Direction". She also appears to be easily irritated by others who disrespect or mock her, most particularly Cheesy (until Cheesy got eliminated) and often dismiss others' criticisms. Microphone's honesty can make her impulsive and lose control of her actions, often causing her to mess up in contests or offend others. However, she is working on how to control herself, and her temper. In "Theft and Battery", it is revealed that Microphone keeps a secret diary where she writes her personal thoughts, in which, nobody else is supposed to know about. In her passages, Microphone becomes self-critical and writes about her bad traits, particularly losing challenges and irritating others. After Taco learns of Mic's strife in "Rain On Your Charade", she offers her a deal to help in challenges and lead her on a more definitive yet fraudulent path to victory. Microphone is reluctant at first but agrees to secretly align with Taco. Microphone begins to warily obey Taco's mischievous plans for victory, such as using her gain to get Taco to help her out of the maze in "Mazed and Confused". Microphone suddenly realizes, Taco wants to cause trouble to others, who disagrees with Taco's idea, thinking it's wrong in "Kick the Bucket" and vouches for alternative means of mental manipulation.
