#avery...mancer?

has dyed the Scarlet ash blonde a blue/black, but still has the tell-tale sunken eyes.

needs glasses but hates wearing them, only does so in private

loves horror movies/novels, especially about the monsters that claim louisiana as their home. it makes them feel less alone to imagine they aren't the only strange thing out there.

for a long time during their teenage years, thought their inexplicable psychic impulses were an extremely aggressive symptom of their ocd/the medication they were on. took them ages to accept that they were real and tell Vivian.

doubts most flirtation/attention from strangers for their looks -- they work very hard to keep their weird gut feelings from manifesting on the outside, and they know once someone gets a load of that, they'll lose interest.

that said, fully leans into saying that weird shit out loud around receptive parties when they know they can get away with it. it's there, they might as well acknowledge it, right?

was wondering if the holler was small enough their nose ring might be a problem, then saw Avery's angel bites and was relieved. does it maybe mark them both as outsiders? who's to say.

misses their mother terribly, but has gotten better about coping with it.

chose the name Sidney as a tribute to their favorite final girl, Sidney Prescott. (Lennox was for Vivian's favorite musician, Annie Lennox.)

does actually love their terrible roommate, Truck the cat. Loves all cats, and is doing their damnedest to respect Frou-frou's space.

didn't really have any big life ambitions, happy to live in N.O. with the rich culture of spirits that reside there, but sometimes dreams of moving to a brand new highrise in a city with less... history. just to get a break. turns out they and Tabitha will have that in common.

Vivian actually moved the them to the city before she died, wanting the two of them to spend some time somewhere fun and make good memories at what she felt would be the end of her life. Sidney kind of wonders if moving would be betraying her somehow, even now.

has the Lovers of Valdaro tattooed on their thigh, and a tattoo of the knife from the Scream films on the opposite upper arm.

partially at Pearlanne's funeral bc they think Vivian would want to pay respects, but also bc they miss having family to be close to. they secretly, desperately hope on the ride up that they'll click with Tabitha and have a friend again.
