                                                      021  .   how do they display affection  ?

               on the more abstract side of things she simply becomes very cognizant of the people she cares about  .  they are fit in somewhere between all the obligations  &&  memories  &&  anxieties to become something else she makes time to concern herself with  &&  she will always keep them somewhere in mind accordingly  .  toothiana is not very good at adapting to other people’s schedules  ,  but if she cares for you  ,  you will know by the initiative she takes to fit you into her own  ,  pompous as that may sound  .          part of this is through a penchant she has for silently taking on a role of looking after others in the manner they seem specifically prone to get themselves into trouble through  .  some examples of this are very generic  ,  she’s had multiple instances of going out of her way to teach muses taking shelter in punjam hy loo how to defend themselves physically  &&  keeping their awareness sharp via sparring  .  some are more unique to an individual  ,  for instance helping a very logic-driven character who is not well-versed in reading their own emotions  ,  see things from a perspective that is easier to decipher their own feelings through ,  like a puzzle  .

         &&  then physically  ,  well  .  .  .  mostly depending on the nature of the relationship  &&  boundaries involved of course  (  although to be honest she can be overly-physically domineering out of concern  )  .  for the most part  ,  toothiana will simply become very casual about personal space with someone she has affection for  .  this can range from light  ,  comforting touches of someone’s hand  ,  to completely draping herself over them like they’re a piece of furniture  ;  light  ,  platonic kisses on the cheek to sensual ones anywhere she wants  .  it’s very dependent on who she’s with  &&  what  ‘ feels ’  right  ,  but she’s basically always going to be as physically affectionate as she’s allowed to be  .

      also on top of all of this she can turn into a little demon because she’s playful  &&  impish  &&  a faerie at heart  &&  that comes out the most with people she either really likes or really hates so good luck  .

                                                             076  .   how do they express anger  ?

         this one’s tough because there are people who write about different forms of anger that individuals can have  &&  toothiana feels  all of them  .  she is  ,  undoubtedly  ,  filled with a large amount of it  .  that’s something i’ve always wanted to keep alive in her character in  tandem  with her being good  .  (  hence  , the unscrupulous hero trope  )  so accordingly  ,  toothiana will also express anger in different ways  ,  depending on the type of anger she is feeling  .  i’m sure i could split it into many different categories but i am going to go with four main ones  .          first  ,  the way she is normally expressing it practically every day of her life is through her devotion to her work  .  keeping herself busy  ,  dedicating herself to it all in her entirety  &&  staying alive out of spite  .  presumably this is the healthiest method  ,  because she’s never trying to ignore or stifle her anger  ,  she’s simply using it as productive motivation  &&  not letting it control her  .        least healthy would probably be the anger that is driven inwards  ,  where that motivation turns sour into self-deprication  .  these are feelings of not being good enough  ,  of being too weak  ,  of failing the expectations of her parents  &&  ancestors who aren’t alive to deny it  .  of blaming herself for being alive when they aren’t  .  this is what turns into overworking herself  &&  other self-destructive behaviors  ,  because she is angry at herself for not being able to do more  .        the remaining are more situational  . the third category is through very cold  ,  practical outlets  .  this is the toothiana who is curt  &&  sharp  &&  to the point  .

       it’s an almost comforting  ,  seething anger that is palpable in the air  ,  because it is so encompassing that nothing else matters except solving whatever problem needs to be solved  &&  any obstacles in her way are only in her mind so long as they need to be to remove them  .  in my opinion this is when toothiana is actually  ,  as a whole  ,  most  dangerous  .

        the other is animalistic  &&  feral  ,  which is often tuned towards surviving  &&  making sure nothing is foolish enough to threaten afterwards  .  usually toothiana shows hints of this when pushed towards emotional duress because it’s very instinctive  ,  but will collect herself before acting out on it  .  alternatively  ,  it’s what happens if she feels backed into a corner  .  it’s very adrenaline-based  &&  violent  &&  tempting to succumb to  ,  almost addicting .  i’ve described it before as an anger that leads her to use her swords more like clubs  ,  not only breaking the shield she’s relentlessly bashing into  ,  but also the arms of the person who was trying to hold it  .

[faemoria-arch]

                                               067  .   does your character believe in fate or destiny  ?

               no  ,  because she has suffered immensely  &&  does not believe that suffering has an inherent meaning or necessity   .  if she believed in destiny  ,  then that would mean in turn that she  &&  everyone else who’s memories are so saturated by trauma  had  to experience what they did for some objectively  ' correct ’  purpose  .               in the AU where she is  forced  to acknowledge the concept of  ‘ fate ’  ,  toothiana rebels to such a point that she cuts herself free  &&  takes on the universal role of defying it as a  chaotic force of empathy  .

             068  .   how strong is your character’s sense of responsibility  ?  what kinds of things trigger it?

          toothiana has an extremely heavy sense of responsibility weighing on her shoulders  ,  it is simply not a sense of morality rooted  completely  in humanity which is what can often give the impression of her being very aloof or even cruel  .  as a child any thoughts of ending her life out of despair were smothered away by a feeling of responsibility to carry on the legacy of her parents  &&  ancestors  &&  that still serves as a driving force to her hyper-vigilance  .  now as a guardian of childhood she feels responsible for helping to keep elements of childhood thriving on a grand scale  ,  which is why she so frequently fights her empathetic urge towards individual acts of justice in favor of very holistic work from a distance  .  as the queen of memories  ,  being one of the few entities which can work with memories in the manner she does  ,  she feels that responsibility to keep them safe  &&  ‘ alive ’  as well  .         unfortunately guilt is an exceptionally powerful driving force for all of it  ,  but prior to all the trauma she was forced to endure  ,  toothiana was an earnestly good child who would have certainly grown into some of the same senses of responsibility she has today  , in some healthier manners  .

                                                       069  .   what about your character is heroic  ?

           the very fact that she still drives to be a positive force in a world that made no such impression of doing the same on her childhood is what i find to be most admirable about her character  .  while going out of her way to make others suffer in exchange would naturally be unjustified  ,  i do not think she owes anything to anybody else either  ,  especially not humanity as a whole  .

            i do not think it is necessary to be a good person  ,  but i do think it takes a very specific kind of heroism to still see anything worth striving to protect through trauma  .

                                                   070  .   what about your character is cowardly  ?

        i hesitate to refer to anything that has been shaped by those traumas as  ‘ cowardly ’  for the same reason that i would not claim the above mentioned to be necessary to be considered  ‘ brave ’  ,  but toothiana’s extreme hesitation to trust others is born of a desire to  avoid  facing certain fears  ,   as are some of her very general compartmentalizations  &&  self-destructive behaviors  (  overworking  ,  thrill-seeking that directly conflicts with her over-tuned survival instinct  ,  isolation  ,  etc .  )  .

         i don’t think these make someone cowardly on their own  ,  but because she will actively choose a harmful behavior that feels more familiar over a more beneficial one that is uncomfortable through its defiance of routine  ,  sometimes to the detriment of not only herself but the people she cares about  ,  i feel it’s safe to say these decisions are made through cowardice  .

                              065  .  is your character better at leading or following  ?  which do they prefer  ?

       i suppose it depends on what you are looking for  ,  because toothiana fills leading positions very well with her mixed practice in holistic outlooks  &&  individual empathy  ,  organizational skills  ,  multi-tasking  &&  so on  ,  but she is also very good at simply  Getting Shit Done™  so if she says she will do something for you  ,  you can feel at peace that she intends to do so by any satisfactory means available  .  it makes her a fantastic asset to have under your authority  .

        in most aspects of life toothiana prefers to lead however  .  it feels safer  ,  lack of control can be difficult for her to accept given the devastating outcomes it has had in the past  .  we’ve seen that she will pick an option to go about things alone if it is available  ;  isolating herself completely within punjam hy loo with only the company of her faeries  &&  the memories she protects certainly leads to getting a lot done very efficiently  ,  but i already went on enough about decisions made out of cowardice  .  .  .

                                    047  .  what was the last medical problem your character had  ?

               toothiana’s body mends itself at an extremely accelerated rate  (  so long as the circumstances allow it that is  )  &&  her tolerance for pain is well-practiced  ,  so for anything to constitute as a  ‘ medical problem ’  to her  ,  it would have to be quite extreme  ,  or fall into a category unique to her such as injuring her wings          which is most likely the answer  !  as toothiana’s wings are rather fragile  &&  must regrow entirely if they are damaged beyond use  ,  chances are that such has happened in moderately recent history at any given time  .           as far as this blog’s activity is concerned  ,  she hasn’t been severely injured in any recent threads outside of an instance of the above  .  it’s safe to assume she receives her fair share of cuts  &&  bruises on the regular  ,  perhaps even fractured bones  &&  dislocations in tandem with how regularly she’s making use of those swords she has  ,  but nothing that would constitute a  ‘ medical problem ’  for a creature which can walk off those issues with little care  .
