#feels like she can't regulate her emotions and easily gets worked up until they hit a boiling point

Sango felt kind of sad to me in the new ep. In a way, it reminded me of Amethio who had no one to protect him against Rayquaza in HZ033 (compared to Liko and Roy who had adults looking out for them).

Similarly here, Sango wasn't taught anything about cooking or baking at all, in comparison to Liko who was taught how to make sweets by Murdock (and knowing him, he was probably really patient when teaching her). Sango had no one to cheer on her and she seemed confused about kitchen tools so she probably was never taught by anyone about things like this. Still, I felt like she actually had an idea in mind when she tried to make her cake because the ice sculpture she made out of it resembled the Pokemon she has on her school bag? (Namakobushi, I think) So she was trying to do something specific but she failed and she was just frustrated about not knowing how to do it. I really wonder if that's the first time something like this happened for her..

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Born: April 12, 1921

Appearance: 5'5, large greyish brown eyes, thick dark brown hair, fair skin, def has a sleeper build. dark circles under her eyes, 30% deaf in her left ear.

Personality: Nancy is practical and tough, her will doesn't break easily. She's as stubborn as she's pretty. She's intelligent, brave and fiercely loyal but she feels like she needs to protect everyone, all she's ever done is take care of other people and she's forgotten how to take care of herself first. She doesn't feel like she deserves to be called a saint or an angel and hates it when people call her that. She hopes to find peace one of these days but for now she's got work to do on the battlefield.

Backstory: Nancy was born in a small town just outside of Casper, Wyoming to a working class Irish American family. Her father, Paul, was a lumberjack, her mother, Rose, was a housewife. Nancy was the eldest of three daughters, her two sisters are Bonnie (17) and Mary (15). Her father wanted sons, he loved his daughters but his trauma from the first world war mixed with the fact that he had his first daughter quite young meant he didn't really know how to be a father be there for his children. Nancy raised her younger sisters with her mother while her father worked all day, the silent resentment brewing as they struggled to get by during the Depression. When Nancy was 16, she fell in love with James O'Ryan, another Irish boy in town. They had grown up together. His father had a good job and he was smart, handsome and respectful, and her father liked him. It seemed like a dream come true. They became engaged when they were 18 in 1940. They had a generally happy relationship even though James' expectations for Nancy to be a quiet housewife and to know her place were clear, Nancy tried to play along even though it got on her nerves. In 1941 when the United States declared war on Japan and the Axis Powers, Nancy wanted to enlist and become a nurse withJames, who was enlisting in the Airforce, he forbid her from it, saying it wasn't her place and that she was to stay at home waiting for him like a "good woman". They fought about this until James made the mistake of hitting her during the argument, trying to "knock her down a peg". Nancy left that night with a bruised face, broken heart and a steel resolve and enlisted in the Army to become a combat nurse, she was placed in the 101st Airborne Division, in the second platoon of Easy Company. Not only did she join the Army to escape her abusive relationship, but to also prove that she could do anything a man could do after being told her whole life what she can and can't do. Sobel resented that Nancy was a woman and was trying to keep up with the men (and succeeding), and made her life a living hell at Toccoa. She worked twice as hard as the other men and gained their respect because of it.
