ā„MENTALITY ā„Oddities: āCuriosity killed the catā has been Makis motto since she was young. Curious about everything around her, people get sick of her real fast. Rumors about her being nosy,inconsiderate, and much more have spread throughout the school since Freshmen year and stuck there even now that she's a Junior. Not only that, but she is hard-headed with a short temper and sadly gotten used to the fact of not having many friends.
Skills: Maki has a fantastic long-term memory, and is almost considered photographic. Skilled in the arts of drawing. She is a hard-worker with high-pain tolerance thanks to her training as a Hunter for the past 2-3 years. She is good at almost anything artisticā¦except music. She could not play an instrument to save her life.
Likes: Animals, Music, Art, Italian food, creative things, summer, and stories.
Dislikes: Annoying people, being looked down upon, liars, and boys.
Hobbies: Maki is obsessed with drawing and creating stories in that little head of hers. Almost all her free-time is used to create other people and solving their problems instead of her own.
Phobia: Ever since Maki was a kid, she has had a fear of water beyond her control. She avoids such activities as boating and swimming, and avoids swimming in the deep ocean despite having mastered basic swimming skills. This anxiety commonly extends to getting wet or splashed with water when it is unexpected, or being pushed or thrown into a body of water. Aquaphobia.
Personality: Those who are close to Maki know that she is a very energetic girl who enjoys hanging out with her friends when she has free time. She is quick temper with her friends and the worst characteristics about her come out the more comfortable she is around someone. She can be insecure because of past experiences when she was young , and often think that others are keeping secrets from her to get rid of her.
However, she is also a caring person, who tries her best to be there for her friends. She is not good with words, so when a friend is sad all she will do is embrace them. Maki loves her friends, but is bad at expressing it.
As for the people who DO NOT know Maki well...they have an entirely different image of her. They have painted a portrait of her as a cold-person who wishes not to get involved in deep relations with others. She is stuck-up and thinks of herself better than the rest because of her grades. They find her rude, uncaring, and awkward. She does not mean to come off this way, even if sometimes it is true that she does not want to be involved with other people. She is just scared of getting close to someone and getting hurt.
Around boys, she is
tense and
up-tight. Her worst side comes out around them and often times she is caught glaring at them, giving them a look of āget-the-hell-away-from-me.ā But... if the boy shows that he has a brain and is not some idiot like all the othersā¦she loosens up a bit and tries to get to know him and treat him like a normal human being instead of an animal.
Maki has many sides to her when she is around people, and when she is not. When she is alone, her true vulnerability and innocent self comes out. She spaces out, dreaming about all kinds of worlds and people. Love. Comedy. Action. Supernatural. Tragedy. Anything you can think.
Also a lot of people donāt notice till getting to know her a bit more, but she is dense when it comes to others feelings and does not catch onto things as fast as others would. She is considered innocent and well in anime terms... a tsundere.
