#this was a hard one to write! I struggle w writing Fènghuáng’s trauma sometimes

[ghoul--doodle]

4, 5, 11, and 26 for Fènghuáng?

4. Has your character ever witnessed something that fundamentally changed them? If so, does anyone else know?

Yes, Fènghuáng and Péng both suffered through abuse from their mother growing up, which they both escaped at VERY different points, with Fènghuáng escaping much later than Péng

Fènghuáng tends to struggle with his emotions a lot, switching from happy, to angry, to sad quite frequently and feeling like each emotion is set to 200% rather than what they’re ‘supposed’ to be. He also struggles with feeling the need to be ‘perfect’ and holding himself to much too high of a standard

His struggle with these feelings caused him to lash out, and it did damage his relationship with Péng for a bit, but they patch things up later when they’ve both had time to heal

Fènghuáng also has trouble with shapeshifting, flight and body image, but that’s for another reason entirely

Fènghuáng hasn’t talked to anyone except for Péng and Canary about anything she’s experienced growing up, so no one outside of their family knows as of yet

5. On an average day, what can be found in your character’s pockets?

Fènghuáng doesn’t have pockets on his regular outfit so he normally carries a little satchel bag!

It usually has some toiletries, his phone, a wallet and a small first aid kid

He tends to pack lightly most of the time if he can help it

11. In what situation was your character the most afraid they’ve ever been?

One of the worst things he’s experienced was having his wings clipped, which is also why he’s still not confident with flight- even after the feathers grew back

26. How does your character behave around children?

Fènghuáng is very gentle and kind to kids

Working as a healer she works with a lot of kids who are scared or nervous, and one of her favourite things to do it play games with them to make the experience a fun one for them instead of scary
