โ enjoys dressing up, owns a bunch of fancy dresses and heels but only wears them on special occasions.
โ various faded scars on her palms from cutting her hands.
โ warm and smooth voice, slightly raspy especially if she's upset or tired. can be breathy if overwhelmed or if she's using her magic. mid register tone that is gentle around the edges when speaking normally but can immediately harden and become pointed when she's angry. her tones are usually playful, sometimes sarcastic, but generally well meaning. doesn't raise her voice when angry, her speech becomes shorter, harsher, more clipped and drops in register. asks a lot of questions, tends to be confident but not overly bragging, does not like to be put down or underestimated.
โ bonnie is girly. she loves shopping and shoes and jewelry and makeup. she is very much into what other girls are a lot of the time, and she is perfectly fine being put in the category of like other women. her room and her house is very expressive of her, a mix of y2k and whimsigoth all mushed together to make bonnie's apartment and rooms feel like her. bonnie is a maximalist, she loves things and stuff and wants her house to look lived in and loved.
โ bonnie is also athletic, so she owns a bunch of athleticwear and has an applewatch that tracks her steps and heart rate.

skills & personality traits.
โ โ โ highly athletic. fast runner, high endurance, able to keep herself moving for long periods of time. was a cheerleader, life guard, and ballerina before her experience with supernatural forces, so she has a lot of body strength and balance.
โ experience with weapons apart from her magical abilities. stakes, knives/daggers, guns, crossbows, etc. magic is her go to form of fighting, and rather than being aggressive with her style, she's more calculating and strategic.
โ quick on her feet and quick to find a solution when in danger. she's adaptive and good at thinking under pressure. excellent problem solving abilities and usually examines all potential outcomes. can and will work around magic abilities if her power doesn't seem strong enough for the situation.
โ can read most ancient spells and decode ancient hieroglyphics based on language patterns of the time it was written, along with deciphering what old relics say based on that same principal. really good with magical items or unraveling historic mysteries. asks a lot of questions and puts lots of time in her research when she wants to know something.
โ bonnie is curious. always trying to find the answer to the unknown when things confuse her. will get herself into trouble or into situations when thinks don't make sense to her in order for it to make sense. often nosey, judgy, but still trying to find missing pieces of information that aren't readily available to her. investigative, stubborn, and incredibly prideful when it comes to discovery.
โ bonnie is also highly intelligent. reads a lot, works a lot (almost to a workaholic degree) and questions things around her. emotional intelligence is a work in progress, knowing when to quit exhausting herself and putting others before her own safety.
โ loyalty, compassion, and love are what drive her. she cares about people so intensely that she'd do anything for them including emotionally exhaust herself, put herself in danger, put their needs before her own, and die for them. her friendships run deep, she believes in platonic soulmates to the point where she feels she can't live without them. she is passionate about keeping her friends safe, her family alive, and if she feels like she can't, it sends her into a mental breakdown.
fears.โ โ โ โ death, losing people she loves. being alone, not having her support system anymore. losing control of herself and her own powers. being a bad person, her moral compass not matching her actions, losing herself in her magic and not being able to find her way back to herself, feeling hatred for others and herself, growing resentment towards people who love her. a premature death, like her ancestors.
โ bonnie has an anxious preoccupied attachment style.
medical information.โ โ โ โ insomniac, but when she is asleep, bonnie has frightening visions due to her powers. migraines, headaches, exhaustion and dehydration. iron-deficiency anemia, which causes dizziness if she isn't taking care of herself correctly. chronic stress and depression, takes aspirin and antidepressants. anxiety and anxiety attacks, ptsd from the prison world, and overthinker tendencies. takes birth control for hormonal things.
โ hobbies include: photography, sports, language or linguistics and literacy, pop culture, yoga/pilates, karaoke, crochet and knitting, collecting things, exploring, reading, movies, debating, strategy games.
โ diet.โ โ โ โ bonnie has a fast metabolism, so she eats whatever she wants, but she is also always working out somehow whether it's going to the gym, doing yoga or pilates, zumba, running, etc. she prefers rice over noodles but will eat both, chicken over steak, salty and spicy over sweet. she takes good care of her figure and drinks lots of water so she doesn't get dehydrated. as a witch, she treats her body a lot better than she did growing up.
family, friends, and associations. ( semi-canon compliant with portrayal divergences and headcanons ahead. do not assume anything about my portrayal, please read before interacting as a canon tvd writer. )
โ abby bennett - wilson, mother, left when bonnie was three years old. abby is a witch who didn't want to become a witch, so left to just become a woman with a life of her own. abby took in her boyfriend's son, jamie, and became his adoptive mother. bonnie seeks abby out for information regarding her involvement with the supernatural when she was 16, and bonnie holds resentment for her newfound life without her. abby is deceased in the modern day, becoming a vampire and then being killed by another vampire.
โ rudy hopkins, father. does not want anything to do with bonnie's witch side. often ignoring signs and refusing to tell her anything growing up about her mother or her witch side at all. bordering on neglect and power suppression because he hates that part of bonnie. absent, uninvolved, and practically pretends like she isn't there most of the time. bonnie was alone in a house even when he was present. bonnie describes his side of the family as boring, like watching paint dry. rudy is deceased in modern day, he was killed by another witch.
โ sheila bennett, grandmother. sheila is a witch like bonnie, who spent most of her time trying to get bonnie to understand her powers despite her father's forceful dismissal. as a child, rudy refused to let bonnie see sheila as much to prevent her from finding out the truth, but as she gets older, sheila is adamant about becoming a positive presence in bonnie's life especially as her powers develop more and more. sheila is bonnie's first teacher, trying to get her to understand the history of their powers before anything else. sheila bennett is the only one bonnie feels has ever seen her and appreciated her the way she needed to be, and after her death, bonnie doesn't think she will have that person again. sheila helped bonnie with a spell to save her vampire friends that ultimately took way too much magic, and that caused her death. since then, her trust of vampires is minimal, considering sheila warned bonnie over and over again about getting involved with vampires.
โ elena gilbert, best friend/soulmate. bonnie has known elena since the first grade, and has a codependent bond with her. bonnie would do anything for elena, and has done anything for elena including dying, sacrificing herself, and putting herself into harms way because of how much she loves her. in my portrayal, bonnie's first love is elena, and she'd choose elena over almost anyone. if you write elena, you do not have to have her return these feelings, but they are vital to bonnie's characterization and how she feels about putting elena's safety above everything. bonnie would have elena as a best friend in every life time, even if there are no feelings involved. this can cause mixed feelings towards her as a character because it is layered and complicated.
โ caroline forbes, best friend. unlike elena, their friendship is more equal. push and pull, less life or death and more working together to solve problems. caroline has also been a friend since the first grade, but they grew closer and closer over time rather than besties immediately like elena. in my portrayal, her friendship with caroline is rocky when caroline becomes a vampire, but they talk it out and make up. bonnie's distrust in vampires does not include caroline.
โ โ โ matt donovan, close friend. apart from the girls, matt is bonnie's closest friend out of their childhood friend group. he is so human and normal that she feels connected to him on a more humanity based level. they grew up together, got jobs together, hung out all the time, but as they got older they connected more on a personal level and matt has shown time and time again that he doesn't want bonnie exhausting herself to death, and has put his life on the line for bonnie. bonnie sees him as a break from her life she's living, and cherishes him.
โ re: jeremy gilbert. in my portrayal, bonnie does not date jeremy. jeremy is heartbroken over anna and vicki, and desperately needs a friend, not a romantic relationship. they still are close like in canon, and get closer after the death of vicki, but they remain friends. if there were to ever be a plot that i write jeremy as her boyfriend, it would be out of projecting her feelings for elena onto jeremy, not genuine interest in him as a romantic interest.
โ โ โโ โ tyler lockwood, friend.
โ vicki donovan, ex friend.
โ damon salvatore, enemy turned best friend.
โ stefan salvatore, friend, distant.
โ katherine pierce, enemy.
โ โ โโ โ mikaelsons, enemies ... unless ?
โ lucy bennett, cousin. shows her different places where her family is from after she helps her with a spell to protect her when she was younger. lucy bennett has several friends in the supernatural sphere and lots of houses, where bonnie ends up traveling to while researching their family history. she is alive and present and everywhere.
