   Rachel’s hands are dainty and soft, typically with clean, short nails but not with polish. Her hands have various marks that imply that her hands haven’t always been so clean, however they are fading with time. There are some scars that indicate slices to her fingers, the most prominent being many tiny circular scars on the palms of her hands. Her fingers are a bit short, but they fit with how she is proportioned.

   Never properly thought about it for her since she’s yet to have even a crush on anyone, but I’d guess she would fit well with someone with a lot of empathy since she’d be a little confusing in a relationship. Kindness is a necessity, she can’t handle someone that’s constantly negative and mean. She’d also do well with someone that understands boundaries and doesn’t incessantly push her to do new things (she can handle that in a friend but in a romantic relationship I think it would be emotionally exhausting for her).

   Nope, not at all. She doesn’t understand superstitions, most likely because she never grew up around any that particularly stuck with her. She sees them more as habits that people have to make themselves feel better, so she doesn’t dog on them or anything, but she doesn’t personally believe in any.

   She’d also choose the future, just to see where technology gets to when she isn’t around. She’s curious.

   Rachel’s would be something reminiscent of loyalty/friendship, so I’ll say a sunflower with two hearts around it. I don’t know.

   Rachel’s most irrational fear is bodies of water. It doesn’t necessarily have to be deep or large, the only type of body of water that doesn’t make her greatly uncomfortable would be puddles that form on the streets during a rain. Even then, she will keep away from them unless she’s near someone that makes her feel safe. She doesn’t know how to swim as a result of this fear.

   Rachel prefers to walk. Since she lives at Heights Alliance, she doesn’t really have to go far for anything too often, so she likes to walk around to wherever she needs to go. When she needs to go far, she attempts to take the trains, but she tends to get lost on them since she’s still learning to read kanji. She also doesn’t like the trains since her height makes her get squished on most carriages.

   Rachel is a good cook, whenever she’s given the chance to. She’s specifically good at measuring spices by taste and knowing which spices would make something taste better, but that’s normally something she can only do with her host family since they’re the ones with the cabinet of spices available. Given the choice of anything, her favorite recipe is homemade beef stroganoff. Warm, comforting, and very flavorful but not too strong.
