Aravis can’t sing. She can probably hold a tune in a storytelling kind of way, but her subpar skills and no interest in improving show that her knowledge in controlling her voice is very limited.

1. Elizabeth was something of an outcast in her first middle school, so much so that she still believed herself to be one when she changed schools in seventh grade, and continued to remain on the fringes throughout High School.  What she never learned was that many of the kids at her new school merely viewed her as an oddity for not seeking out interaction more, and a few even mistook her insecurity and silence for snooty aloofness.

2. The change of schools took place because her parents wanted to get her out of that toxic environment.  Complaints were made, and the police were even called a couple times, but it didn't help.  In fact, the tauntings evolved into beatings, which she kept to herself for fear of things getting even worse of she 'tattled' again.  The last three months in her old school were plagued by constant anxiety and nausea, and she rode the school bus every day in fear of her life.  She was 12 years old.

3. She grew very close to a boy who usually went by the nickname 'Danny' in her Junior Year, but they had a falling-out at the end of Senior Year that partly stemmed from misunderstandings and hurt feelings.  They lost touch after graduation, but she never forgot him, and sometimes wished that she hadn't let him go.

4. Another boy who went to their High School, a giant of a human being named Alvar who stood at 6'8" after his final growth spurt, also had eyes for her in High School but kept his distance because she was 'taken'.  In their adulthood, though, they were a couple for nearly two years.  Unfortunately, even though Alvar loved her, he didn't love her enough to combat his wandering eye, and he ended up making a mistake that caused the end of their relationship as a couple.  They remain friends to this day, but he regrets having blown his chance with her.

May went through a phase with glitter glue. She begged Letty to buy them whenever they saw the packets at the store, and the sticks were all she asked for her birthday. 

One day, Letty walked into May’s room and she was quite in the middle of creating a mural using the glitter. 

*Liz has two favorite perfumes, and alternates them depending on her mood; "Pink" by Victoria's Secret, and "Inis Moonlight".  She normally wears the latter, however, and the chosen scent her Narnian counterpart wears is closest to that one.  She likes them because they're both light scents that don't fade quickly.

*Elizabeth likes to unwind on walking trails, and has been known to lose track of time if the weather is good and her mind is full.  Her favorite one is .07 miles, and she usually walks or jogs four laps around it before calling it a day.

*Another thing she does to unwind is sit somewhere and crochet, but it annoys her a little when people come over and strike up a conversation while she's doing it.  Being an introvert, she likes her space, but is too worried that she might come off as sounding rude or unfriendly if she says so.

*Not very long after the battle in which Liz ended up with a concussion and a broken arm, she overheard Girbius playing the tin whistle and took an interest in learning.  By the time she and Peridan are married, she is still far from being an expert, but is getting quite good.

*She took up the instrument as a way to help channel her anxiety into something positive.  The war affected her much more than she lets on, and some of her best playing happens when she's more highly-strung.
