#She's nicknamed Cheese because Brie is a type of cheese and Bri is another nickname

For the ask game Obrina - magnolia, hollyhock, gladiolus, belladonna, fern

oh hell yeah I get to talk about Cheese!

magnolia : describe your muse’s relationship with nature & the natural world .

Bri grew up in the Splatlands, she is well aware of it's dangers (she's seen it herself), but despite this, she finds it beautiful. She appreciates the beauty from a distance, slightly afraid of nature in the Splatlands and Badlands specifically. She's seen what it can do to those who don't respect it. She does think Twist is a bit insane for working in the outskirts of the Badlands, especially with how accident prone Twist tends to be. But even then, she tends to defer to Twist knowing what she's doing. Obrina may have been raised in Splatsville, but Twist was raised and THRIVED in the deepest parts of the desert, deeper than most Splatlandians dared to go.

hollyhock : how strong is your muse’s sense of ambition ? what’s something they strive for in life ?

Aside from Dai Dai, fellow Team Twist member and ex Elite, Bri is probably the most ambitious of the team, especially considering she's the youngest on the team at barely 17. She's pretty damn smart, getting really good grades in her classes, statistics and history being her best classes. When she was just a little blob of octobaby, not even close to getting her 'kid' form, she saw an airing of one of Rider's matches before he got big in turf (and before most Splatlandian youths were even interested in snooty turf war) and immediately wanted to be like him. .....No, she wanted to be BETTER than him. The moment Sheldon opened shop in Splatsville, she was first in line to get a Dynamo roller, even if everyone told her it would be best to start with a lighter model. She wanted to best that smug arrogant inkling at his own game (she does not know about Goggles, who did that without a care, mostly because Inkopolis turf matches rarely aired on Splatsville TV.) She's honestly kinda disappointed after meeting the green inkling and seeing him much more mellowed out and humble. She however has a new goal of besting the Splatsville Hierarchy, especially since they think they can just stop someone from playing just because they lost. (This has absolutely nothing to do with her massive crush on Ocho of the Hierarchy, or the fact that she has gotten into constant trouble for ripping the banning stickers off her Dynamo and wearing disguises to be able to keep playing) She wants to prove herself against the best of the best, her B- rank be damned!

gladiolus : describe a moment from your muse’s life that they will never forget .

Obrina has damn good reason to be afraid of the outer Badlands. When she was just a little kid, she and her best friend, an inkling named Squeaks (for her love of basket ball and her loud shoes) decided to prove they were tough stuff and scavenge something cool that they could show off to the other kids in their class. They ended up finding a massive abandoned Octo Weapon and tried their best to drag it home. Bri accidentally brushed a button on the controls and it started going haywire, spinning around rapidly enough that she couldn't get out. Squeaks jumped in and was able to turn it off, but she got flung out and hit a pile of junk that ended up falling all over her and massively injuring her neck and vocal cords. Despite doctors best efforts and because of how young she was, Squeaks never fully healed from the injury because her vocal cords weren't fully developed when the injury happened. Because of this, Squeaks can only vocalize with soft squeaks and while she can speak, her voice is very quiet and it hurts like hell to talk. Obrina blames herself for Squeaks current state, because if it wasn't for her wanting to prove she was the best, her best friend wouldn't be partially mute now

(Squeaks is of the opinion that the accident was both their faults and refuses to let Bri wallow in self pity, smacking her upside the head and squeaking angrily until Bri agrees it wasn't solely her fault)

belladonna : how does your muse respond to silence ? do they take comfort in soundlessness , or seek to fill the void with noise ?

Considering the above, Obrina is quite used to silence when hanging out with Squeaks. Usually it doesn't bother her, but if she can hear the wind howling softly like that day, she's blasting Sashimori until the falling rocks fade back into foggy memory.

fern : does your muse believe in magic or cosmic forces , or are they more likely to think their life is ultimately a matter of their own control ?

Obrina really isn't one to believe in magic or ghosts, but she's native to the Splatlands and knows there's some shit you just can't explain away. She's a "pick yourself up by your bootstraps" kinda gal, but she is kinda convinced Twist is cursed with everything that happens to the poor girl.

(No, she doesn't believe in magic or spirits, but she's not fuckin with them to prove her point)
