Traits: She's actually quite a girly girl. She loves cute things but hides it from others, thinking they don't suit her tomboyish self. She secretly longs for a romance like in shoujo manga, and even when she spots cute accessories or stuffed animals, she pretends not to care. She's pure and innocent in love. She's terribly bad at lying.
