7. What song reminds you of this oc? Does this match up with the type of music your oc likes to listen to?

~{Out Of Character}~
we’ve definitely talked about this one before, but The Villain I Appear to Be is the song that most reminds us of Doc. the lyrics match an older version of her character, where she was not quite such a huge bitch of an antagonist, but we kept it for her even when she started causing problems on purpose because it is just such a good representation of how she sees herself when she’s functioning at her best. honestly i could go through nearly this entire song line-by-line and just break down exactly what it is she identifies with and what exactly is true about her
as far as the music she listens to, i think this actually isn’t that far off? she probably likes melodic stuff that makes her feel. graceful, or composed, or competent, or something like that. she says she doesn’t really like music if you ask her what genres she’s into and listens to dark academia mixes in incognito mode (that she does everything in incognito mode is beside the point)
as for Helix,
X?)
she doesn’t have a lot of opinions on music
