Snowdrop or poppy for Elias

Snowdrop: some they love, and something they hate They love their gondola at Jericho Locks. it's built in such a way that they can still sit while steering around the waters, and it gives them a unique sense of freedom to be able to chart the waters of the upper river under their own power and volition! The Persephone calls to them, and her river waters run in their veins. They hate Lacre. If it were normal snow they would enjoy it so much, but it's not. it's Saddness Snow. And it taints their wheelchair and they smell like amonia and rotting fish and they can't get it on their hands and it never leaves whatever gloves it gets on!! and it always always blocks the ramp to their house and turns into the yuckiest slush, and they've had Quite Enough sadness for one lifetime!! But no, now it's covering their wheels and they'll have to scrub those before they can go anywhere in their own house! They despise Lacre-Snow. Poppy: How are they around strangers? Elias is polite and friendly around strangers! This is, of course, a giant mask for the self-doubting, fear, anxiety, and general uncertainty they have around new folk! What do they think of them using a wheelchair? Will they like them? Will they respect their gender? Were they a parent's friend from back on the surface? What if they hate Elias?? What if they just want to use them? If they are using them, how much of themself is Elias willing to give just to feel liked for a moment?

They love being around people, it's genuinly so nice, but it's also stressful to navigate the social dances that are so commonly expected of them! they far prefer it when the strangers are fellow bohemians, it's much less stressful! ask game here
