Ellie likes to mix up her style every now and then. One day, she might be found with a floral dress, tights, boots, and a cardigan. The next, she could be in dark jeans, a pale top, and heels. It truly depends on how she feels when she wakes up. Her life usually consists of bright colors, but she does tend to go dark and even more mature when she has to go to work. She favors long, dangling necklaces, studs, and bracelets. Her hair can be seen in either waves or straightened out and there are rare times when Ellie will pin her hair up. She usually wears little to no makeup other than her lip-gloss and mascara, but will opt to wear more on special events or dinners.
Feral State:
- Enhanced senses
- Enhanced strength
- Enhanced reflexes
- Enhanced instincts
- Enhanced healing
- Nails elongates into claws and her teeth become sharper.
- Her eyes take on a more greenish-blue hue once she is in full feral state.
- Her feral side - Ellie hates talking about it, but the feral side of her has actually adapted its own personality whom she actually has mental conversations with. They are pretty much arguing on a twenty-four hour basis. All that makes her Arielle has been enhanced and those personality traits are embedded into her feral, making her that much more dangerous. If evoked or knocked unconconcious, her feral can actually take control of her body until Arielle herself takes back that control. However, there is no telling what could happen. The feral has a deep-set bloodlust that Arielle tries never to fulfill and if push comes to shove, the feral might not be able to tell friend from foe.
- Pain - While Arielle can heal fairly quickly, internal wounds take a much longer time and if she is in extreme pain, that is the one time where she trusts her feral's instincts to fight-or-flight.
- Sensitivity - Because of how enhanced her senses are, they are also sensitive. Extremely loud sounds or sharp smells really get to Ellie.
- Emotions - It is no secret that Ellie is a very emotional person and this is where she and her feral are completely and utterly in synch. It is actually harder for her to put her feelings away and think without her heart and that has gotten her into several difficult situations.
Organization -- Ellie has always been extremely organized and neat despite being all over the place|| Hand-to-hand combat|| Multilingual -- She speaks German, French and Romansh.|| Social Networking
- Licking her lips I like to taste my lip-gloss.
- Growling when someone is irritating her or touching something or someone that she deems as hers.
- Purrs when someone is either petting or running their fingers through her hair
- Clenching her hands into fists in an attempt to reign in her feral side
- Twirling the ends of her hair when she is around a guy that she likes.
- She rolls her eyes when she feels like she's hearing bullshit.
- She lowers her head when she is recieving a compliment before smiling. It is a weird habit that she can't stop and one of her best friends pointed out that she does it the most when she feels she doesn't deserve a compliment.
- She speaks with her hands.
Managing her boss' schedule Yeah, it's turned into a hobby|| Dancing|| Writing a chapter-a-day for her story|| Playing video games|| Hosting parties|| Reading Surprising, I know.|| Singing This never happens around a lot of people|| Checking her Tumblr, Facebook, & Twitter|| Listening to music|| Taking walks
Losing control of her feral side|| Never figuring out her relationship with her best friend|| Becoming a failure|| Dark, enclosed spaces|| Spiders|| Snakes|| Her family's old church There's this little bath of holy water that my mom keeps wanting to dunk me in for baptism. I don't know why, but I swear I think that the pastor's going to drown me every time.

{Vivacious, Bubbly, Possessive, Easily Jealous, Insecure, Impulsive, Perfectionist}
When you first encounter Arielle, you are met by bright smiles, dimples, and baby-blue eyes that twinkle with an unwavering light. Her laughter and just pure, raw energy is infectious. Ellie is usually bubbly and just draws people in. There are not many that dislike her and if they do, it is because they find her personality overbearing. She is almost always with a smile on her face and with a plan on her mind. And once sheβs made her mind up, itβs near impossible to steer her in another direction. Thatβs just how determined Arielle can be β stubborn, if you werenβt one that tolerates her.
What a lot of people tend to make the mistake of doing is overlooking Arielle or simply looking down on her. They even see her as a child at times, one who you should pet her head because she is too adorable for you to look at without feeling pity for her ditziness. She is quite impulsive and does the first thing that comes to mind. She feels that if you take too long to make a decision, then you are only second-guessing yourself and nothing good ever comes from that. So, she goes with whatever her brain says. And she is usually devastated if the situation turns out to be the complete opposite of the outcome she foresaw. Ellie genuinely wants to see the best in people or the best outcomes and is usually heartbroken.
Her boss will tell you, however, that that part of Ellieβs personality is what made the older woman hire her. While there is an air of naivety surrounding her person, there is an underlying wisdom that most tend to overlook. She can play the role of the party girl or the blonde friend, but can just as quickly surprise you with a bout of wisdom you did not see coming. It is also because of her meticulous tendencies that she was hired. Ellie is quite organized, which is surprising to most because she is a walking chaos all her own. However, when it comes to life and work, Ellie is a perfectionist at heart. Once she does something, she never half-asses it. It is done with near-perfection precision and execution. But itβs not because sheβs that controlling of a person.
Ellie is extremely insecure. Most people donβt see that as she has a good hold over her happy persona. However, it is no secret that Ellie is extremely emotional and takes everything to heart. If there is an issue at work, she usually thinks that it is something she has done. If a boyfriend has broken up with her or cheated, she β at some point β ends up blaming herself even if it was no fault of her own. Thatβs just who she is. Why? Because nothing Ellie has done ever felt good enough. Even the most miniscule of failures like getting a 3.5 when her goal was a 3.8 used to absolutely break her heart because Ellie hates disappointment and not being as great as her father.
It is probably why she can get so jealous or possessive of someone. It is not that she wants to be extremely controlling of a person. Well, for her feral, that might actually be the case. It is because she is absolutely terrified of not being enough or for those insecurities to be played with. Seeing someone flirt with FC: Jared Padelecki or any boyfriend she has has Ellie looking at all of her faults and seeing everything good in that other person. And it can destroy her, which is why she has such a horrible track record with boyfriends. They never see her or love her as much as she needs. Her father never loved her the way she needed.
When most people think of the possibilities for Arielleβs childhood, they picture sunshine, swings, ice cream and happiness. Some parts of it consisted of those things, others didnβt. It just important to start at Arielleβs fourth birthday party.
From the day she was born, it was obvious that Arielle was a Daddyβs girl. Every second of the day was spent in her fatherβs arms. She would watch Sunday games with him, go out fishing with him (she was a girly-girl even back then and would squeal at the sight of worms), and sit on his lap in the evenings when she would get really sleepy, but didnβt want to leave him. He used to carry her up to her bedroom and kiss her forehead and Ellie would just be there, happy and content. But, outside of that, life between her parents wasnβt great. Even Ellie wasnβt oblivious to that fact.
There would be days in which her mother would find the smallest of things to complain about and Ellie would hide in her closet, just wanting to screaming matches to stop. Inwardly, and this was because she was no naΓ―ve as a child and maybe even a tad bit so now, but she blamed her mother and there was a deep dislike settling in her heart. Her mother was always complaining, always the first to yell. And it was on her birthday that she truly began to hate her mother.
They were having a water balloon/gun fight in the backyard. Ellie was pretty much soaked, but she wasnβt complaining. She was having too much fun. Her Dad had just lifted her so that she could throw the balloon in her uncleβs face when her motherβs indignant yell caught everyoneβs attention. With a kiss to the back of her head, Ellie watched her father as he put her down and followed her mother inside, a dark look taking over his face. No longer wanting to play, Ellie followed them inside only to find her mother slapping her father. The woman claimed that he was cheating with Arielleβs pre-school teacher, a male. That he had been doing it for over a year. Her father didnβt even deny it. But Ellie was too young to understand what βgayβ truly was. She recalled someone telling her that it was bad, but it was her Daddy. Sure, Daddy couldnβt be bad, right?
When her mother hit him again, Ellie broke down into tears. She couldnβt remember much after that; all she knew was that her father carried her to her room and promised to cut her cake for her and bring it up later. He never did. That night, he packed his things and moved out. He wasnβt even man enough to tell his little girl goodbye. At first, Ellie was harsh towards her mother. She remained reclusive; she would stay in her room and play instead of coming downstairs with the woman, she would not answer a lot of questions at dinnertime, and she refused to tell her mom about those days in school where Samantha might have pulled her pigtail or when George pushed her a little too hard. That would set the stage for the remainder of their relationship until Ellie went to college. The woman that didnβt know what to do with her daughter and the girl who was too stubborn and naΓ―ve to get the truth.
However, the truth came. After the divorce, her father promised that he would get her every other weekend. She would have to deal with his βotherβ family, but as long as it meant she had her Daddy, everything was fine. But it wasnβt. He would forget about her constantly and when they were together, it became so awkward. She just feltβ¦unwanted. So, when she turned thirteen and had a choice, Arielle stopped visiting her Dad as much. He didnβt truly want her there; he had another little girl and the son he never had and the only man he ever truly loved. What need did he have of her? So, Ellie turned to cheerleading and high school and living for the moment! She was reckless, flirtatious, and bubbly with a hint of bitch. And also, she didnβt have a care in the world and to her, her mother didnβt either.
It came to her senior year when her mother snapped that Ellie was being ungrateful brat and needed to be grounded. Ellie was adamant about standing her ground and it turned to a yelling match that ended with Ellie claiming that her mother never loved her. She admitted that she knew her father didnβt and that ever since the divorce, Ellie hated her mom. She felt that the woman buried herself in her work so that she didnβt have to see her child, the child that looked exactly like the man that broke her heart. They both cried and apologized and awkwardly worked to reconciliation. Of course, that meant Ellie had to seriously put in work to stop being as promiscuous and careless as she was and her mother had to try to get close to her daughter again. It was at that point that Ellie stopped worrying about her Dad as much. She had a mother who paid for all of her cheerleading expenses and was there for everything that he wasnβt.
College passed by in a blur. To Arielle, it was a lot like high school. She was a cheerleader, she was a contributor to the newspaper, and she went to parties. She actually pledged as a Kappa Kappa Gamma and served as the secretary during her junior year. A few heartbreaks and close friends later, she had her two main best friends and Tristan. Their relationship was rocky and difficult to understand from the start because they are so different, but his seriousness brings out the maturity in her and she reminds him to let loose every now and then. Arielle wonβt lie and tell you that she doesnβt love him. To be completely honest, he has been the reason why her last relationship (the cheating aside) didnβt work. Everything wrong that she found in her ex, she found perfect in him. So, itβs not even that she wonβt acknowledge it. Itβs that she canβt. Acknowledging that she wants more from him means acknowledging that a relationship could very well damage a friendship that means the world to her and Arielle is not ready for that. There is also her belief that she is nowhere near the kind of girl Tristan needs and would rather see him happy with someone else than deal with the girl she is. She canβt change. So, sheβll party and keep him just where he isβ¦even if her heart and her feral want moreβ¦

Four years old with my back to the door
All I could hear was the family war
Your selfish hands always expecting more
Am I your child or just a charity award?
You have a hollowed out heart
But it's heavy in your chest
I try so hard to fight it but it's hopeless
Hopeless, you're hopeless
Oh, father, please, father
I'd love to leave you alone
But I can't let you go
Oh, father, please, father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
Oh
It's been five years since we've spoken last
And you can't take back
What we never had
Oh, I can be manipulated
Only so many times,
Before even "I love you"
Starts to sound like a lie
You have a hollowed out heart
But it's heavy in your chest
I try so hard to fight it but it's hopeless
Hopeless, you're hopeless
Oh, father, please, father
I'd love to leave you alone
But I can't let you go
Oh, father, please, father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
How could you push me out of your world,
Lied to your flesh and your blood,
Put your hands on the ones that you swore you loved?
Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
How could you throw me right out of your world?
So young when the pain had begun
Now forever afraid of being loved
Oh, father, please, father
I'd love to leave you alone
But I can't let you go
Oh, father, please, father
Oh, father, please, father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
For the love of a daughter
