Her mother’s name is Fleece (not my idea stole it from others)

Her dad left them both when she was young Lanolin barely remembers him only that her mother started working a lot more after it.

She got a lot of her work ethic from Fleece who was the mayor’s aide in Riverside when Lanolin lived there. Nowadays she actually is the mayor, though Lanolin doesn’t know this.

Fleece is very particular about how others see her and her daughter, basically your typical controlling mother. 

They were a middle class family but Fleece was always looking to improve their standing.

Fleece called Lanolin “My Lanny” and now Lanolin hates that nickname and got really defensive when Tangle called her it once. 

Fleece instilled in Lanolin the idea that you need to sacrifice your own happiness for the sake of others which Lanolin somewhat took to heart.

Fleece let Lanolin leave to go work for the restoration (she couldn’t legally stop her) and has just been waiting for Lanolin to realize her mistake and come crawling back. 

Lanolin doesn’t hate her mother she sees it more as “she made her choices and I made mine” hating her would be a waste of energy and time in her opinion.

Despite this Lanolin hasn’t even attempted to make contact with Fleece mostly due to her not seeing the point.

Lanolin is on the spectrum but masks very hard

 Lanolin hates black coffee but everyone assumes she loves it due to her whole vibe but she actually prefers 3 creams and 2 sugars. 

To solve this she keeps a large quantity of Sugar and Cream packets in her pants pockets.

The longest Lanolin ever stayed up for was 36 hours and was only stopped by Jewel basically ordering her to go to sleep. 

Lanolin always uses her wool poofs as pillows in the rare times she actually sleeps.

Lanolin’s breakfast lunch and dinner consists of coffee and protein bars.

She takes terrible care of her wool like only shears it once it starts affecting her performance and doesn’t wash it nearly enough (it is often yellowed) 

People around her have to remind her to take care of herself Jewel finds framing it as something important to her work is most effective.

Lanolin met Maggie when she found the wisp just wandering around restoration HQ after a wild goose chase of trying to find out what Maggie needed. After some help translating from whisper It turned out the wisp was just trying to find a place to help out in the Restoration.

Maggie is pretty weak for a wisp (on top of magenta wisps already being on the lower end of the spectrum) 

To compensate for this Lanolin’s bell has to multiply her power output by a lot hence why it takes a professional to wield it. 

It took Lanolin months to learn how to use it without getting flung into the closest wall let alone effectively using it in a combat scenario. 

Maggie is extremely territorial when it comes to Lanolin and the Bell Wispon, Whispers wisps once tried settling into Lanolin’s wool poofs but were promptly kicked out by Maggie. Whispers wisp have lived in fear of Maggie ever since that point. 

Lanolin doesn’t see the Diamond Cutters as broken up she sees it as they fired and replaced her (She doesn’t blame them)

Maggie is very upset with Tangle and Whisper after their reaction to Lanolin’s apology in #76

Lanolin is an avid reader but only of informational material like city planning or just anything she doesn’t already know about.

Lanolin has absolutely sworn off of vacations after the Spiral hill party eggman attack, the white park avalanche, and the campsite fire. They all opened her eyes to the idea that something is always going to happen and she needs to be ready to deal with everything.

She has the utmost respect for Jewel not only as the Restoration director but also as someone who was there for Lanolin at her lowest point.

Lanolin has lost touch of how to be… normal in a way she doesn’t have any hobbies she doesn’t consider herself to have friends other than Maggie and maybe Jewel post 76

The only other person she really got close to was Duo she saw a lot of herself in him (which is obviously what Mimic wanted)

Also, like. Using her unceremonious ejection from the story as a reason to disparage her is just... Like, you caused that, non-specific lanolin-hating strawman. That was literally your doing, you took to Twitter with such loud, naked bigotry that Sega got scared and pulled the plug on her. To then turn around and cite her sabotaged arc, THAT YOU CAUSED, as a reason why she sucks, is downright offensive.

What do you think Lanolin’s relationship with Sonic is like or i guess how would you write it. How far do you think her annoyance with him runs.

I think it's clear that she views him as unpredictable, chaotic, and therefore dangerous. I think that his indomitably happy-go-lucky attitude, especially after the metal virus arc, really pisses her off.

I also think that she is envious of him. She, along with basically all mobians, have gone through so much unprovoked suffering, and Sonic has the power to stop the villains causing it for good, but he never does.

If Lanolin was laying down and bleeding out after or during a mission, what would her last thoughts be?

I thought I could dodge that.
