She grew up knowing she was not an attractive child. She had seen the beauties of the Gardener court, and she did not think she compared. While her brothers spent time practicing with the Gardener children, she also spent time with other girls at court. While she did not think herself a great beauty, she did have a confidence to her and musical talent that helped her in making friends around her age. And once she had her younger sister, she easily took on the role of taking her sister with her and introducing her to others, wishing for her sister to make friends as well. As she flowered and became a woman, though a little later than some of the other girls she knew, she found a certain beauty in herself, and a confidence in her worth. While she found an enjoyment in flirting with boys, she did know better than to truly test any of the waters. While she may have had a few secret kisses, she was sure never to go further, and in truth the boys she kissed did not seem to press for much more. Danelle likes to believe it was really down to the chivalry the Reach was known for, but it could have also been her brothers that kept men in check. It did mean she could be a bit of a tease with some of the boys, and she enjoyed the game of flirting, though she ensured she kept her virtue. She had hopes of marrying into the Gardener family, if her father could negotiate such, and she would not let rumors that she was promiscuous jeopardize that.
