llesbianwrites:✹ character intro — mira lockharte⇻ there isn’t a problem mira can’t solve — the fragment is just a really, really complicated one.BASIC INFO // twenty nine years old, trans bi woman (she/her), oyajen/dalen (nigerian/indian)PHYS. DESCRIPTION // long black locs, dark brown eyes, dark brown skin. almost always moving.BACKGROUND // when she thinks of her childhood, she remembers sweet fruit and dark, star spotted skies. she remembers the dusty smell of tomes she’d been forbidden to touch, the sound of her brother’s anxious mumblings, the thrill that rushed up her spine when she learned something new. most of all, mira remembers the sea. she’d stare at it whenever she got the chance. in the morning, the foggy skies painting the water a pale gold. in the afternoon, sun bright as an egg yolk, white caps gleaming. in the evening, in the night, and in the morning all over again. she was obsessed. she was in love.it should have come as no surprise when, the night before she turned eighteen, she couldn’t be found. no one was concerned — not yet, anyway. mira was known for her eccentricities, and one of them was locking herself away for days on end, reading or experimenting or working on some complicated project. who could have guessed she was at the docks? who could have guessed she was buying a ship?mira knew the answer was no one. she’d planned for too long to trip at the finish line. the ship might have been simple, but there was a big captain’s quarters — big enough for her experiments, for all the new ones she planned on doing — and it was hers.she left home a week later. she’d handed her parents a forged university acceptance letter with a smile and dragged her brother away before the tears could come. the guilt would weigh heavy in her heart, but she’d get over it. she had to. there was a whole ocean to discover, after all. and mira was going to be the first to do it.TROPES // science hero || family of choice || motor mouthSTATS // intelligence: 11/10 || charisma: 8/10 || strength: 2/10 || cooperation: 6/10 || loyalty: 7/10 || agility: 4/10 || kindness: 7/10 || bravery: 9/10 || endurance: 5/10AESTHETICS // sun warmed skin, the fresh smell of brine, a storm on the horizon, colorful fruit, the satisfaction that comes from solving a difficult problem, the inky depths of the sea, staring at the stars, confidence, the calm in a storm. what you say and what you do are two different things.SONGS // dance apocalyptic — janelle monáe || upside down & inside out — ok go || oh sailor — mr little jeans || big god — florence + the machine || she’s thunderstorms — arctic monkeystaglist beneath the cut Keep reading -- source link
