share 5 peculiar habits that your muse has!
More of a quirk than a habit, Maxima is peculiar about her utensils. She prefers more rounded forks and softer-edged spoons, and if during a dinner she finds her utensils not to her liking, but another at the table is served ones she'd prefer, she will try to subtly switch them without being caught.
Looking at the moon. Ever since little childhood, Maxima had a strange relationship with the moon, especially since her grandfather, comforting her after a nightmare one night, told her about a man in the moon, who was also her grandfather. Growing up she half forgot the story, and didn't believe what she remembered of it as being factual, but still, she looks at the moon almost every night before bed, taking a moment to observe it, almost entranced. Uncertain whether the astral object fascinates her simply because it is, or because of that long-forgotten story.
She has elaborate chess matches against herself almost daily. Wanting to keep her mind sharp and her scheming and strategic senses high, she will play chess by herself in the castle for hours on hand, practicing several stratagems.
Ever since she was little, Maxima has had an odd habit of staring at people, almost analytically. Well, not almost - pretty much all the time, she is analyzing her situation and the people around her, categorizing them in her head and quickly placing them in the chess table of her mind, always thinking of how they could be of use or an impediment to her.
She could be caught sometimes dancing by herself, though she usually goes to great lengths to not be seen when she does so, wanting to avoid embarrassment. Her dances are usual ballet-like in nature, copying the plays she watches with her grandfather.
