thank you so much! yes, you may!!
Name: Eileen, sometimes nicknamed Lainey
General Appearance: Purple-ish brown hair, tied into low pigtails. She wears one of her mother's old bandanas around her neck like a scarf. Hunched and slouched posture, like she's trying to make herself smaller. Generally wears neutral greys and blacks - darker colours. Baggy clothing.
Personality: Extremely driven and determined. Delights in praise, compliments, and kind words. Perfectionist, the type to obsess over her own mistakes into the night. Doesn't really talk to people much, because she's too busy, but tries when other people engage her in conversation.
Special Talents: The brainpower to do both contests and the League challenge, and to do rather well in them. Of course, the tradeoff is that she doesn't get enough sleep at night, but manages to function remarkably well in the mornings.
Who they like better: May, but it doesn't stop her from constantly seeking Paul's praise and approval. She just hasn't figured out that she already has it.
Who they take after more: On surface level, kid Paul. But the snappiness is mostly because she's running herself into the ground, and general kid brattiness. After she grows up - well. Who knows?
Personal Headcanon: She has a pair of Applins - one shiny, one not. The shiny one is her starter, and often hides in her scarf.
