Daniela - Part 3: Relationships
Here is this post again. Since Tumblr deleted it from the schedule. Then I posted it. And Tumblr randomly deleted it again. Here’s to hoping this one stays.
Daniela loved to take picture of her family after getting a camera for her birthday from Fabio. It took her a while to learn how to use it, but was soon a pro and had one of the spare rooms turned into a dark room.
Her favorite pictures filled one wall of her bedroom. The others were kept in cigar boxes under her bed. Many of the pictures are blurry due to her family’s inability to stay still for even a minute and attempts to get candid shots. The ones that do show her family clearly, tend to be ones of them sleeping.
When she’s away she convinces her little brother, Antonio, to take pictures of the family. When Daniela came back the first time after giving it to him and developing the pictures, she found the 90% of the pictures were taken at strange angles and attempted selfies. Since then, she only leaves him with one roll of film or a roll that is almost finished.
Antonio was her favorite advisor and she would often run battle strategies by him first.
Her men once tried to do a surprise party for her birthday – it completely backfired on them as she found out early on and surprised them instead. They never did it again.
She frequently got into arm wrestling contests with her men. Whenever someone beat her, they’d have a small celebration by having a dinner and the winner got to choose what was served.
At least one of her guardians, besides Renaldo, was one of the boys that she used to play with.
Daniela once caught her men skinny dipping in the pond by the mansion while she was out hunting. They were frightened at first, but Daniela immediately joined in.
Her family loved her dogs. Often times if they had to go at last minute they’d write down a message and have them deliver it. Her men also slipped treats to them on a regular basis. Renaldo was especially bad about this and brought treats back every time after a mission.
Keeping with Vongola tradition, her men had to wear suits to formal events and important missions. Nobody else was allowed to wear red except her. Her guardians had red pocket squares however. In day to day life around the mansion, she didn’t care what they wore so long as they had on a shirt and pants and were presentable if something came up.
Daniela highly respected her father and was very close with him. She met with him once a week in order to discuss the family and other things.
Her family will not eat her cooking. Soon after becoming boss she got the chef to teach her how to bake snickerdoodles. It did not go well. Oblivious to how terribly the recipe had gone wrong, she had her family eat them. They have never quite gotten over it. They constantly joke about how terrible her cooking skills are.
