[ 💤 ]ㅤ.ㅤhow do they sleep ? curled up, sprawled, holding onto something ?

HEADCANON QUESTIONS

Taissa is a very guarded side sleeper who only sleeps facing the door of her bedroom, never with her back to the entrance. She feels insecure if she doesn’t have cushions at her back, and doesn’t like beds that are too large for one person. She also keeps a pistol in a holster under her mattress.

[ethimologie]

spine. when do they lose their backbone, what scares them ?

BARE BONES HEADCANON QUESTIONS

Taissa is used to analysing things from a safe distance, and finding meaning in everything around her. She needs the world to be a puzzle she can solve. It's where she derives her sense of control. When she encounters something or someone that cannot be profiled or linguistically parsed (like pure chaos or senseless tragedy) and she's unable to find a motive or pattern in it, that is when she feels genuinely unsettled.

[ethimologie]

fibula. do they ever feel overlooked ?

BARE BONES HEADCANON QUESTIONS

Taissa often feels overlooked as a human being. She's so good at being the sharp, polished agent that it's easy to forget she has a pulse. On top of that, she often feels like she's living in the shadow of her father and the legacy she's trying to distance herself from. She's painfully aware that she's someone the Bureau keeps tabs on, like some sort of dormant virus. Her colleagues see her as a high-functioning asset and the product of a tragedy, rather than just a woman who might be tired, or lonely, or afraid.
