ok brief intro to maya
she’s a journalist working for a cultural/political publication based out of boston. she’s coming to the island on an assignment to write a piece exploring the mythic nature of the island & the lifestyles of those searching for soulmates there. fully intends on returning to her home in boston once she gathers enough information to write her report, but ehhhhhh. we’ll see what happens.
has a picturesque idea of what her life is supposed to be like, and works towards it tirelessly, even when achieving her goals doesn’t seem to satisfy her. she’s sort of chasing a false dream and isn’t gonna realize that she doesn’t actually want this life until a different option falls at her feet.
she’s ambitious, outspoken, and action-oriented. used to having to reject her feminine side in order to be seen as competent among her male peers, she pushes down any parts of her personality that would make her appear weak. wants people to think she’s unbreakable and independent but is actually extremely dependent on other people to validate the image she’s created for herself.
because of her reluctance to express her emotions, she ends up forming very shallow relationships. might have a lot of friends, but none of them really know the real maya.
ok thats all for now please love her
