The stack of application forms looked as though they could touch the ceiling, but Ms. Selene was slacking for the first time in her life. She was plucking petals from a bouquet of red roses, and gently letting them fall into the acceptance bin. The toothy mouth gobbled each one up greedily.
She paused in her petal popping to re-read the gloriously romantic note Argyle had written - or, more specifically, stolen from a human poem. That was ever so thoughtful.
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My glow can reach, when feeling out of sight For the ends of FEAR and ideal embrace. I love thee to the level of every day's Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight. I love thee freely, as humans strive for right; I love thee purely, as they turn from praise. I love with a passion put to use In my old griefs, and with my scareling's faith. I love thee with a love I seemed to lose With my lost thoughts, I love thee with the breath, Smiles, tears, of all my unlife!
With a wistful sigh, she returned to pluck the last rose. "He loves me.. he loves me not. He loves me.. he loves me not. He loves m.. oh yay!"
So excited over the last petal being the right one, she dropped the stems into the acceptance bin, which began to choke and spit out the thorns like blowing darts.
It was back to hiding under the desk for six hours, for her.
EncouragingGo on! you can do it![+] When it comes to giving people that extra positive boost they need, Amy is an expert. She will make it her main goal [at the moment] to make sure you pass that test! Or finish beating the crap out of that strong hunter you were both facing currently. She loves to see people do their best and would gladly help them to do so if asked. Helping people reach their goals is something amazing to behold.
PoliteExcuse me, would you mind...[+] Because she was raised around a very prestigious family, manners are something they told her to value. She always says please and thank you, eats with the right fork, and never does anything that's considered crude or vulgar. You will never hear a single curse or see a rude gesture from this goul plant~
SweetSure, Ill gladly give you a tour[+] Since being polite was something she learned over the years, Amy also learned to be nice and courteous to others, often doing things for people without thinking twice about it. She loves to help those in need, offering a hand or a shoulder to cry on when they require it. She believes in the saying do unto others as they would do to you. Being mean is bad karma anyways right?
BluntFor all of your bravado, you REEK of failure[ - ] She may be polite, but Amy doesn't know the meaning of tact, which is why she points things out as she sees them and calls people out on their flaws like no tomorrow. She doesn't mean to do this, but it does make people think shes rather rude, something she strives not to be.
FacadeI am the prettiest of princesses!....Not really[ - ] While Amy would gladly tell people how pretty she is, its all a front to give off confidence she doesn't really have. She might smile and call herself the most beautiful of roses, but in reality, she believes she is anything but. This tends to flow over to compliments she give to other people, dangerous situations that call for bravery and skill along with relationships.
Low self-esteemI hope they'll never notice how ugly I really am....They'll run[ - ] For all of her positive qualities, Amy believes that deep down, she's worthless and ugly inside. This is mainly because of what she is. She hates the history behind her species and would prefer to be something else that doesn't have such a stigma behind it. Once people know what she is, shes sure they'll see that she's not as nice as she appears on the outside due to the ugly thing she is on the inside.
(REASON)
Amy was enrolled into Amityville Academy because her parents felt it was time for their only daughter to be out on her own so she could learn the valuable skills she needed to become a full fledged adult. And hopefully they were thinking she'd find a suitable boil she wouldn't feel the need to eat.
(HOBBIES)
Gardening - Amy loves plants. Like, she LOVES plants. She has a garden in her room at home and plans to start one when she goes to school. She also wants some plant-like minis to help her with the up keep of her garden. She Has one minipet at the moment named Mindy that does help her a lot. If there isn't one already, Amy plans to start a gardening club to attract some gardeners that frequent the school as well as Halloween. Plant lovers unite!
Fashion and design - Most of the outfits that Amy wears are hand made and designed by her personally. She loves fashion and if she could afford to, she would make outfits all day. However since she cannot, she plans on becoming an important goul in the fashion world once she graduates from school. For now, shes content with making outfits whenever she can as well as sketching future designs in her pink sketch book.
Sunbathing - Every plant needs sunlight right? Amy likes to sun bathe whenever she can just to soak up the rays. She doesn't stay out long enough to get a nasty tan, just enough to feel energized and refreshed for the next day. When she cant sunbathe, she has a heater stored in her closet to give her energy.
Writing fearficition and Boil Love - A secret love of hers, Amy doesn't really let anyone know about this unless they're considered a very good friend. When something strikes her fancy or if she sees some sort of awkward rivalry, you can guarantee Amy will write about it. She has a small following of people and she writes on fearfiction.net under the pen name AmbientThorns.
Singing - Sometimes Amy will sing to her plants or minipets in her room. Its rare that she will sing anywhere other than there, but if you do catch her singing by chance, and she hasnt noticed, she will keep going till she's finished her song or she's out of the mood. Singing is what usually helped the females back home win a proper mate, so young girls are taught to sing as soon as their vocal cords can be used. In order to get a feel for what her voice sounds like, listen to this
(QUIRKS)
❁When she's nervous, Amy will rock back and forth on her heels with her hands behind her back while looking away. Her parents have tried to break her of this habit as it is very obvious, but it never really worked.
❁When Amy gets mad or annoyed, she'll start huffing a lot while become a tad snooty. Its the only way to know when you should back off, not that she would try to eat you or use her whips on your face :3

Whip VinesY1 Battle Cry Amy's arms transform into vines that she can use as whips to hit her enemies with. It stings like, ALOT.
Whip ThornsY2 Battle Cry Amy's arms transform into vines that NOW have thorns attached to them, which she can use as whips to hit her enemies with.
(NATURAL ABILITIES)
Growth Spurt Whenever Amy touches a plant, she can use some of her energy to make it grow instantly. This drains her the more she does it, so she usually has to be careful.
