«♪{Mira}♪»
regresses anywhere between 0-3 years old, usually depending on the circumstances leading to her regressing.
has been regressinhg basically her whole life to cope with her abusive parents but never knew what it was. she'd repress it and pray (catholic guilt) it'd go away so she'd never get punished for it.
discovered the term agere at around 15, a few months after she and Rumi first met. she dropped HARD one day after overworking herself dancing plus repressing the need to regress all her life.
Celine was the one to give her the talk (having delt with littles before (third sunlight sister)) but it didnt't stop future overworking or repressing but they tried. Mira is just stubborn.
Rumi managed to take care of her tho, and even told Zoey how to take care of Mira when she came into the picture.
Zoey was immediately enamored with little Mira, spoiling her rotten with treats and kisses and plushies.
main caregivers are now split between Rumi & Zoey and Abby & Romance, with Celine, Bobby and Jinu being babysitters while Mystery and Baby are her playmates.
BIGG on nicknames for everyone she loves
Rumi is either "Ruri" or "Mama" depending on how old she's feeling.
Zoey is either "Zoo" or "Mama", depending on how old she's feeling.
Abby and Romance are "Dad & Pops" or "Dada and Appa" depending on how old she's feeling.
Celine is "Cece"
Bobby is "Bubs"
Mystery is "Misty"
Baby is "Bubba"
and lastly Jinu is "Gigi"
of course her caregivers have their nicknames for little Mira too.
"Mirry* and "Sweetheart" are Rumi's favourites, "Baby" and "Bunny" are Zoey's. Abby calls her "Little Trouble" and Romance calls her "Sweet One."
transgender, mtf. she could never do super girly stuff when she was young so now she does it when she's little.
tea parties and dress-up are an important weekly occurrence.
she might've eaten some make-up once during a dress-up but that's beside the point.
she sometimes steals Rumi's teddy bear because it smells like her Mama and is soft and comforting, even though she has a lot of her own teddies. Rumi pretends to be annoyed when Mira is big again but she doesn't actually mind. she thinks it's really sweet and purposely puts her perfume on her teddies knowing Mira would be drawn to their scent.
super insecure about her height, being the tallest out of the girls and just kinda above average in height in general.
Rumi and Zoey help by babying her to a ridiculous degree. "no, baby, you can't take stuff off high shelves. I can't even reach there, and you're littler then me. you'll get hurt".
she put it up there.
its not as much as a problem with Abby and Romance because they're taller than her, and Abby insists on carrying her everywhere.
she doesn't talk much when she's little, not seeing the need in it if she's happy and nothing needs to be corrected. the most she'll talk is either babbling while playing or when she's crying.
she tends to grab attention by tugging on clothes or humming when needed.
she cries a lot when she's little, not tantrums or anything, just soft cries and hiccups. everyone was a tad concerned at first at how easily she would cry over small things, her tummy aching or falling or not knowing where her caregivers are, but after learning that Mira wasn't allowed to cry as a kid it became comforting for her Mamas and Dads, knowing Mira was comfortable enough with them yo show she was upset when she's mostly non-verbal.
tummy ache princess (it's the ibs). she will be dramatic and lay on the floor, rotting, begging for cuddles that are given to her without hesitation.
her medical problems are a usual cause for her slipping, with the pain being too much and making her unknowingly regress. Rumi and Zoey are however always prepared with tummy-safe snacks in their pockets and lots of love.
wears diapers when she's little, partly because of her stomach problems and partly because it's just comfy. she already uses pull-ups when she's big so she never actually thinks about it too hard.
she bought some cute pink princess ones online because they help with her gender dysphoria by making her feel cute.
she has two pacifiers in her pocket 24/7, kept in a little plastic case so they don't get dirty. she probably doesn't NEED them all the time, but it's comforting to be prepared.
she also occasionally uses them when she's big because it helps her focus and is slightly healthier than eating gum 24/7.
it's cause some confusion where people think she's little when she's not, but it isn't ever serious. Romance teases her a lot saying she might genuinely be part demon with her oral fixation when it happens.
Ever After High girl through and through. She'll put on the episodes and play with her dolls religiously.
Her favourite characters are Raven and Daring cuz they remind Mira of Rumi and Abby.
