✿ : My muse and nature. (If they are an ‘outdoorsy type’, like the sound of bird’s singing, if they have never set foot in a forest, e.t.c.) 

athena loves to be outside but only in two specific types of environments the desert or the water. any other environment they will more than likely be just a little miserable.

☼ : My muse’s first memory.

athena isnt sure exactly if its their very first memory but its one of the more impactful ones. they were only seven when it had become increasingly obvious that their schoolwork was beyond boring and far too easy for her to do. the teachers took notice and their parents seemed to get quieter for a while around them as it was discussed what to do. after testing it was revealed they were years ahead and more than likely somewhere in the middle school testing range.

▶ : My muse and level of education. (If the muse has some form of education, what education they perhaps wish they had, e.t.c.). 

athena has completed up to their doctorate degree in their field and sometimes, but very briefly, considers going back to school for another round or another degree.

𝓕 : My muse’s handwriting. (Is it good, bad, difficult to decipher, do they prefer writing by hand or with the help of some form of machine, e.t.c.) 

its not nearly as bad as the stereotypical medical doctor's signature but it is extremely close at times. if it is for labeling that is the only time she can manage a good print, otherwise its loops and turns can be confusing to read even for them.
