repost & fill in the words you most associate with your character.

animal: a field mouse so small it can rest in a flower without its weight registering or badgering the stem

color: the thin, uneven, translucent white brim of bitten fingernails; the leathery, callused sheen of farmer's hands; book pages yellowed by the sun; the accepted-but-strangely-limited plaid flannel rainbow of red-green-brown-blue-black-white; the tiny yellow-bright refrigerator lightbulb preternaturally sensitive to your arrival

month: december: giving holidays and the start of a new year

song: any song from his playlist captures his ambiance well; to name one, neighbor joe incapsulates him and the atmosphere

number: 2: represents him and his sister and a continual pledge to not revert to a solitary life

day or night: day: the hospitable time to visit others unannounced

plant: tobacco: he grew up on a dairy and tobacco farm and had to regularly furrow the land, harvest the acres and acres and rows and rows of plants, dry them out, etc

smell: freshly brewed drip coffee invisibly fragrancing his apartment far too late into the evening

season: winter: a habitual, childhood like for the colder months because it's the off season when he doesn't have to be out in the fields every day tending to their family's crops and the cows are all already huddled in the warm asylum of the barn so he doesn't have to herd them in for milking

food: days old baked cookies he finally indulges in eating because they're too stale to keep offering his piano and reading pupils

astrological sign: pisces, probably. i don't think i've given him a birthday

element: air/wind: he likes very much the idea of kindness without intent and believes wind is the closest concept to this

drink: coffee overwhelmed with a wealthy, unhealthy pour of sugar that remains misleadingly black
