details:

==in-game — self stuff==

-] Cina is trans, and later changing his name to Charlie ;; he isn’t uncomfortable being called Cina when he’s older, but legally he will be Charlie

-] Prefers a masculine style ;; borrows oversized clothes and hates skirts to the point of somehow managing to change her uniform into shorts? (<- nobody realises this besides Mary) Her favourite sweater is a newish 2009 Liverpool hoodie from Lewis.

-] Got teased about Mouse the stress ball by Bem and got ranted to by Grey about Finley ;; no wonder she gravitates towards Finley… No other reasons, right?

-] Long black hair ;; it’s worn in a ponytail to keep it tidy. As she heals from trauma, the hair gradually stops being worn in the anime mother side ponytail and is kept messy and loose, to signal healing and less restraint on herself :) prior to fostering, the ponytail was tidy and flat from grease (the fluffier the hair, the cleaner she is). When he’s older, he wears it in a shoulder-length half-up style to keep it out of his eyes.

-] Does not care about Liverpool ;; her only interests are art and music, but she’s trying to sit at the TV with the Holloways…

-] Oblivious ;; fully unaware about flirtations and whatnot, just trying to make adults move on and echoes her peers’ words. She does not get why people like her and does not understand words half the time… (undiagnosed autism, pre-aroace realisation, general lack of self-confidence) (who said that)

-] Low self-confidence, low desire to be in the limelight, picky eater with a reduced appetite ;; this kid can fit so much disbelief about the self and fear about being perceived. She is rigid in how she treats herself—like keeping the desire to eat, to take care of the body, despite lack of desire to—because she is self-aware of needing to do something, but doesn’t want to take up space…
