Description shh shh i'm still tumbling mostly
app for for #Anima-Solus

Name: May Thompson
Gender: cis female
Age: 17
Height/weight: 1.66m / 60kg
Weapon: Voulge (stationary)
Wish: For everyone to have a shot at a happy ending
Despite her fairytale wish which might have sprung from the idyllic mind of a much younger girl, May is grounded, cynical, focused and quite aware that the world is completely fucked up and full of shitheads. But when a star spins out of the sky and tells you in as many words that you can have anything, anything you ask for, you don't ask for money or power or anything you can get for yourself. You go straight to the impossible, the unimaginable, the daydream chased after by the naive. You wish for a happy ending. For everyone.
Grade: 12th (senior year)
Likes/Dislikes:

she drinks white coffee and black tea;
she enjoys alone time but cherishes her friends;
her favourite animals are sharks;
her favourite subjects at school are English, Society & Culture and Legal Studies;
she will punch her dog for a good chocolate lava cake

if you offer her cola she will up-end it on your head;
she abhors passive-aggressive people;
she has complex views on honesty but she hates half-truths the most;
she's inexplicably terrified of butterflies and moths;
she can't stand to waste time
Personality:
[humour: choleric-phlematic
closest classical element: earth
hufflepuff house, though she leaned toward gryffindor, too]

May is focused and practical, for the most part, although she's not totally above indulgence. She comes off as somewhat jaded and cynical--it's not that she doesn't want good things; it's not that she refuses to recognise good things when they come her way; it's just that she knows the world's going to hell in an overpriced handbag and she'd much rather be pleasantly surprised than crushingly disappointed.

She's very honest. She will lie when the occasion calls for it, but she tries to be honest even then--she'll never try to cover up a lie through wordplay or loophole, and openly scorns those who do.

She keeps her head and always tries to approach situations with as much rationality as she can, but she won't disdain of emotional people. She tends to view things in black and white even though she knows there are countless shades spanning countless scales.

She's a bit grumpy and will sometimes bite before she barks, but she's patient when she knows it'll pay off and fiercely loyal to those she loves. She forgives with no resistance but refuses to forget.

She's here to get the job done, and probably won't stop til she does.
Other info:
She loves her older sister April more than any other person in the world and the surest way to get on her bad side is to threaten, hurt or intentionally offend April in any way. Even her wish is more for April, who has been secretly in love with another girl for the past two years, than anything else.

She has a dog, a german shepherd-cross-kelpie named Jasmine, who she goes jogging with every day. She also plays tennis casually, Thursdays at the courts down her street, so she's quite fit physically.

She was born with perfect pitch but has no particular interest in creating music; her younger sister June, a violinist, gives her no end of grief for this fact.

She spends more time than she thinks she should angrily debating social issues on tumblr. One side effect of this is that she's stopped hesitating before cussing out random assholes on the street.

She'll probably be either a cop or the Prime Minister when she grows up. Maybe both.

design notes:
- her solus gem actually sits at her throat, where the button is on her collar in this picture. (I'm so sorry about the number of errors on her reference.)
- I mean, I've actually drawn her a bit too slight in this--her build is lean but solid, and she is respectably muscled.
- she is half-Latina from her mother's side and her skin tone ought be kept in mind, please!
- the ridiculous embroidery on her clothes isn't set-in-stone; just as long as there's some manner of patterning it should be fine.

Thank you! Yes, I always try to show some of the character's temperament in how I draw them, so I'm glad to hear I've succeeded. :>!
