Part Two: In-depth Analysis
How does she show and/or handle: While it takes a while for her to process and she often avoids making eye contact, at the same time she can make excuses just to be near someone, often choosing to make physical contact with them, talking with them a lot, and showing a more warm and gentle side to her as she gets to know more about them(love), She is someone who will shower her partner with affection, often with an intensity, going all in and focusing on the person by spending time with them... save for cuddling(affection), Although she keeps her emotions behind a cool and composed wall, internally she can often switch between moods that can sometimes break out into the surface, causing her to prolong her sadness even further(grief), She bites back hard, often getting snippy/downright cruel towards people if they keep pushing her, which is often a result of going through a rough patch(pain), Easily angered, she takes her time in being manipulative, tricky, vengeful, and even violet towards those who angered her, choosing cold-hearted revenge over pure aggression, expressing herself through body languages and pure silence to unnerve people(anger), She will brood, withdrawing herself further in and keep her emotions hidden as she tries to process, analyze, and even integrate her experiences to make sense and try to heal(sadness), Wanting to handle conflict on her own terms, she will put in the work to deal with it, usually at the cost of becoming stressed and in desperate need of help and support(conflict), For her, change is something she can expect and accept... if it’s under her control, and if not, she can secretly become anxious and feel out-of-balance before going to accept it(change), Often trying to avoid her grief, she will set out to conquer it with a intellectual approach, though this ends with her becoming overwhelmed/physical ill and needing to find balance through rigorous self-care(loss)
Does she have a temper: She does, but it’s displayed in a more passive-aggressive, manipulative, and underhanded fashion, preferring to undermine people rather than explode out right
How does she respond to the surrounding world, the ‘unfamiliar,’ and other people in general: She responds with a calculating and cautious look towards the ‘unfamiliar’ world through an aura of pretend boredom as to keep a low profile. When around other people(save for her friends), she rarely interacts with them, choosing to be in her own headspace or by being a bit short with them whenever talking or being questioned. For the surrounding world, she’s pretty much either not paying attention or critical of it
Polite or rude: At first glance, she seems rude towards others as she often stays quiet amidst conversations and discussions. However, once someone gets to know more about her, she is shown to be a bit shy but polite as she discusses more with them about personal things
What kind of ‘public’ face does she display: Her public face is mostly that of indifference and boredom, often pretending she isn’t listening or interacting
What is her sexual preference/experience/values: She is asexual, and isn’t really interested in starting a relationship just yet, but she does prefer a traditional and serious commitment with intimacy, love, and loyalty with little tolerance for manipulation or mind games

Friends: Dylan Ashford- Both Dylan and Philomena met as children... though their meeting was a little less on friendly terms. The two of them are very vitriolic/belligerent with one another, which tends to confuse people on if they really care about each other. However, if one was to take a deep, deep look into their odd friendship, they would see that the two of them do look out for each other through thick and thin, always comforting one another in their own, special way. Kris Monroe- Both Kris and Philomena's' relationship started in their childhood. To say that the two are as different as night and day would be an understatement, as both of them have different ways of thinking, saying, and doing things that often leave both equally flabbergasted on how they work. In spite of that, both of them adore one another, often confusing others on the exact status of their relationship. Terry Weber- Both Terry and Philomena's relationship started when they were children, and is a case of a very odd relationship. Terry seems to be the only one that makes Philomena laugh, and Philomena can easily talk/share her own personal thoughts with Terry the most without thoughts of ridicule possibly being presented towards her.
