⊙.☉ ♪⁽⁽٩( ᐖ )۶⁾⁾ ₍₍٩( ᐛ )۶₎₎♪ (ﾉ≧ڡ≦)

⊙.☉: Does their voice get an octave higher when they lie? Does it crack?

A’on definitely wavers and stumbles over her voice a little when she tries to lie. Not a convincing liar at all. ;)

♪⁽⁽٩( ᐖ )۶⁾⁾ ₍₍٩( ᐛ )۶₎₎♪: How are they like when they dance? Are they stiff? Fluid? A good dancer? Do they prefer to dance with a lot of others, with one other person, or alone?

Since she’s made leaps and bounds in her battle training, A’on has become rather fluid and graceful. Even before that, though, she discovered that she picks up dances with ease--something she hadn’t known before becoming an adventurer. She hadn’t been allowed to learn the traditional dances in her tribe, so she was as surprised as anyone when she performed the side-steps of a simple harvest dance as if she’d done it all her life for the first time.

Since then, dancing has become a pure joy for A’on that she often does whether people are watching or not. She’s often smiling and laughing as she dances, so she might not be your best partner for a somber waltz, but if your up for some spinning, leaping, or fast stepping, she’ll match you beat for beat.

(ﾉ≧ڡ≦): Do they like to show affection by physically teasing? (I.E: Shoulder punches, etc.)

A’on loves physical touch, and will absolutely hug and poke and nudge her friends for a laugh. It does take her some time to warm up to that, though; she tends to be more reserved and “polite” with people she doesn’t know as well, at least when it comes to physical touch. The natural give-and-take between friends, both verbal and physical, is something built up over time for A’on.

Strawberry, Garnet

Strawberry: Have you ever kissed someone you barely knew?

Nope, and it was awhile before A’on kissed Naih’tan! Not even necessarily on purpose, but he was aware that she was still learning the whole romance thing and helped set a slower pace for their dates. Even familial kisses really weren’t a thing for A’on--her mother didn’t display affection toward her, which in turn influenced her siblings to act the same.

Garnet: Which couple is your couple goals?

A’on has always looked up to Aern and Silver, both as friends and in their relationship with each other. They were her first up-close encounter with a true romantic couple, and A’on peppered Aern with so many questions about their early “courtship.” Even when Aern had a moment of crisis, A’on didn’t catch on to that--she sees only the strength of Aern and Silver’s devotion to each other. <3

One night in a doman bar, Aernthota, A'on and Popo are hanging out, having a girls night (shocker) and p much gettin blasted to ease the tension. Popo pipes up how she doens't get what's so special about doman swords, since they seem so skinny compared to gladiator swords. the conversation goes on until the three decide to form a girl gang in the wee hours of the morning, getting kicked out of the bar laughing in the streets.

queue samurai instructor trying to avoid the three lovely but lethal ladies who seem to gang up on him for 'fancy sword' lessons.

I will accept nothing but this for the 100% canon reasons why popo a’on and aern pick up the stormblood classes bc drunken sword based adventures have been a staple of humanity for ages.

☢ ♣ ❈

!!!

☢ to learn about my character’s phobias

Thunderstorms! La Noscea has its torrential downpours, of course, but A’on had never experienced the ground-shaking storms of Gridania until she started adventuring. The way lightning splits the sky in a bolt or flash-blinds you for a millisecond unnerves her. Logically she knows thunderstorms are perfectly natural, but she still finds herself running for shelter whenever the air starts to rumble and crackle in Gridania.

♣ to learn about my character’s wardrobe

More than anything, A’on likes the feeling of freedom. She doesn’t think she could ever be a warrior or paladin because the bulk and heaviness of that armor (at least by appearances) makes her shudder. To that end she prefers lighter clothes that allow a lot of movement, so mostly cloth.

Growing up her clothes were all practical, of course. When she started adventuring she still didn’t really understand the point of “fanciness” in clothing (even just things like basic embroidery and color). Her viewpoint shifted when she earned her first few rewards, however, and she learned how much freedom self-sufficient earnings gave her. Once she realized how expressive she could be in her clothing, she embraced it completely.

A’on loves color, whether in bold swatches or in her clothing’s accents. And to that end, she loves clothing with details and textures--ruffled collars with broaches, paneled sleeves, black pants with gold detailing down the sides, fitted coats with brass buttons. She likes complementing these small details to make them pop out of an outfit, which is why she’ll sometimes spend hours laboring over which pair of boots to wear with a new pair of pants.

Thus, practical but expressive. Simply constructed but with elegant design.

❈ to learn about my character’s eating habits

Well, growing up, miqo’te clan meals were mostly an entire family branch sitting around a long platter and taking at will what you wanted, usually with your hands. A’on’s since learned society’s more accepted table manners, but she’s also not shy about eating and will enthusiastically eat in front of others will no shame.

A’on isn’t much of a snacker, unless prompted (she is more than happy to taste Naih’tan’s latest baking or cooking concoction). She’s more likely to eat a hearty breakfast, go most of the day without food, and then have a satisfying dinner with friends or Naih’tan at the end of the day. She carries a small pack of nuts if she feels her energy waning during the day, but she’s too busy running around to sit down and have a proper meal, and nuts are a quick, inoffensive, clean food to nibble on when she absolutely needs it.
