to most, amelie is an enigma. she's the type of person to be able to talk to someone for hours and give away nothing about herself. if you ask anyone she used to go to school with, even the people that she was 'friends' with, they could tell you very little about her. which is exactly how amelie likes it. amelie spent most of her younger life searching for somewhere she belonged, and at times, she feels like she's still looking. amelie isn't happy to settle for everything. if somebody doesn't sit right with her, she won't keep them in her life. if that means she's alone, so be it. amelie would rather be alone than be with people that she can't connect properly with. amelie is stubborn and defensive. she's had to develop thick skin, what with being the loner as well as growing up in foster care. amelie didn't do well in class. she found it hard to concentrate, and felt like it was a waste of her time being there. she scraped passes in her classes, but it wasn't easy for her. she uses sarcasm as her armour.
but when amelie is outside, she becomes a different person. she excels at physical activities, a combination of the fact that she's artemis' daughter and the fact that it's one of only a handful of things she loves to do. when she's in the wilderness, she's at her happiest. she runs every morning and sometimes even in the evening, depending on her mood. she's happy and bright and smiles easily. she adores animals, and they seem to adore her. she seems to attract every stray cat in the streets and will stop to pet all of them. those who see her in class and when interacting with animals are amazed by the difference in her outlook. surprisingly to many, she's not vegetarian. however, she makes a point of sourcing all of her meat from ethical sources, and only actually eats meat three or four times a week.
like all of artemis' children, amelie has a talent for archery. this lends itself to a good aim in general. she also has good stamina and strength, despite her small build, and she's light on her feet. she's built for speed and it shows when she starts running. amelie is good with animals. she's determined and passionate, like all of artemis' children. she's an excellent cook and can whip
never wears shoes inside - almost always has her hair in a bun - hardly ever wears any colour other than black or white - room is always tidy - can run in heels - always wears heels - sits on counters and desks
security + coffee + tasty food + cooking + animals + running + rock music + pop music + sarcastic people + people who take her seriously + apollo + heels + being barefoot + sitting on counters + people who smell nice + wearing perfume + red lipstick + passionate people + the countryside
being alone in the city after dark - flat shoes that aren't runners - bland food - country music - the city - being stuck inside- studying - feeling like a failure - being told she's wrong - men who raise their voices unnecessarily - sickly sweet perfume - people who don't get sarcasm - having to deal with boring people - being patronised

Amelie was the result of a brief love affair. It wasn't intense or passionate, but, rather, a slow-burning love that ended suddenly. Amelie's father was a journalist, reporting on a power struggle between environmentalists and a power-hungry corporation. Artemis was there to lend her support, which is where she met Pierre. The two ended up spending a lot of time together, but eventually, the battle was won by those on the side of the environment. Pierre needed to return to New York, and Artemis wanted to return to Olympia. So they spent one night together before they both left. Amelie was the result.
Pierre tried looking after her. To his surprise, he wasn't half bad at it. Apollo checked in on Artemis' behalf every so often, and Artemis herself even made a rare appearance. But then Pierre was stabbed while working on a story. He died, and Amelie, at the age of four, was taken into care. The services thought she was better off staying somewhere familiar, like the city. Amelie hated the city. Her father had been planning on moving out of the city, to somewhere where she would be happy. But instead, Amelie was shifted from home to home within the city.
In reality, she didn't have it as bad as some other foster kids. Every home she went to did their best to look after her. But Amelie was unhappy for so many reasons. She was struggling in school. She wanted her dad. Not her foster parents, her dad. Apollo's visits had more or less ceased entirely. She didn't know what to do or where she belonged. She was talking back to the teachers, she was scraping passes in all of her classes, she was being teased by the kids... so she ran away. She took her savings and got on a train to somewhere that wasn't the city. She went for long runs in the forest and discovered where she was truly happy. She found what made her happy.
Artemis herself was the one to find her in that town. Neither Artemis or Amelie were good with their words, but they managed to communicate what needed to be said. When Amelie revealed how unhappy she was, Artemis told her of Lecacy Academy. It wasn't perfect, she said, but it was somewhere where Amelie would be with people like her. And it was better than nothing, right?
