TEA ORANGE: what is something that your muse is fascinated with?
erin is obsessed with vinyl. she loves going into old record stores just to browse the collections there. it often reminds her of a time where she would seek solace in her grandfather’s company as he told tales of how music used to be and how it used to sound coming from a vinyl rather than some odd small machine. while she cannot afford to start a vinyl collection, she still spends time looking them up online.
BABY BLOSSOMS: does your muse have a favorite scent? what is it, and why?
it may seem childish, but erin’s favourite scent is her marshmallow scented shower gel. she was addicted to the smell when it was first released and she was so paranoid about it never returning once it left the shelves, that she literally bought a crate of it. it’s the main reason why she often smells like a candy store. she won’t use any other form of shower gel.
HONEY: when your muse loves someone (whether it be romantic, platonic, or familial love), how do they show it?
love is complicated for erin, and for the most part it’s because she’s never truly had a positive nor comforting version of it in her life. she grew up believing that it just never existed for her - that she was one of the unlucky sods in life that would never get to experience it, but if erin did truly fall for someone and began to open herself up to the concept of love, she still probably wouldn’t verbalise it. she’s more of a physical being. there would be some form of contact made whenever she was in the company of the person she had fallen for, be it holding their hand, playing with their hair, or cuddling on the couch. she’s actually a very affectionate person, and more often than not will put the person she cares about ahead of her in all aspects of her life, but it will also terrify her. apart from the physical contact, erin might distance herself emotionally or mentally from the person she has developed these feelings for. having those feelings means that she would be giving a part of herself over to the mercy of another person. she would most likely become agitated, fidgety and very flighty. she means well and will always try to do her best for those she cares about, but has never been at a stage in her life where she has been able to develop a healthy way of showing this fact.
