20) Wing color and how do they deal with their wings?: A very pale yellow, nearly white! Ikki sort of ignores them on the whole, these days - that is, she's used to them. Beyond clothing holes for them, she pays them very little mind, although she likes seeing other people's wings (she's convinced wing colors = life/soul colors).
21) Did they change or grow in any way physically since coming to Luceti?: Not a lot, nope. She hasn't even gotten that much taller!! It's UNFAIR.
22) What do they miss the most from home?: Her family, full stop.
23) What does their handwriting look like? Do they write the way they talk, or is there a clear difference between the two?: Childish but readable and neat! Ikki notably gets bored of black ink in the journals and will use markers/crayon as she sees fit, and will occasionally doodle in the margins of her responses (typically flowers or the like). She writes about the same way she talks, and underlines things when she gets excited. I actually picked out a font because of thissillything; Ikki's the pink font.
24) Is the way they act in person different from the way they act over the journal system?: She is exactly the same. Ikki notably never filters anything, and not just because she doesn't really GET filters still (she always has other people do it, or allows them to do it, if they feel the need to talk to her privately). She just doesn't see any reason to filter anything at all, so she...doesn't.
25) Did they gain/lose any personal goals during their stay in Luceti?: Well, she did want to get to know her new baby brother. :|
26) Is Luceti a technological upgrade, or downgrade for them? Have they adapted to these changes well?: Upgrade in some ways, downgrade in others! There are no cars or airships or factories here, after all, but holy shit the battle dome. And these electronics are way beyond hers - she has like, rotary telephones, not these fancy schmancy ones.
27) FOR STUDENTS: What is their favorite class? What is their least favorite class? What about their general behavior in school?: She likes art best, followed closely by music! And MATH CAN SUCK IT. She likes counting/addition, but fractions are basically the bane of her life, although she's...getting better about that, with one-on-one attention from Raine. But then things like Loki's equation on chaos (??? HER HEAD STILL HURTS...) happen and she's less sure she's getting the hang of it...is she supposed to know how to do that...? In general, Ikki is a decent student. She's actually pretty well-behaved and respectful of the teachers, and she turns in all her work on time. Of course, one of her guardians also attends school with her (HI GRANDPA) so, uh. THERE'S THAT. She has probably been caught passing notes to people (including said guardian) before, however. Whoops.
28) FOR DRINKERS: What is their favorite drink? What is their least favorite drink? Do they prefer Good Spirits or Cloud Nine? What's their attitude about and while drinking?:
29) Do they have any special talents? If so, what are they?: She's an airbender, with all that entails. Ikki's also got a pretty good memory, and can parse fast-talkers like herself without issue. SHE'S ALSO GREAT AT COLLECTING GOSSIP, for...whatever that's worth.
30) Have they learned any new skills or abilities in Luceti? If so, what are they? Why and how? Ikki's been training under Aang, so her airbending has been improving at the rate it would have improved back home, if not better (because Aang). She's picked up a few non-native skills; Sokka has given her boomerang lessons because it sounded COOL, although she...doesn't really take that as it should be probably; she's learned to cook some things she wouldn't have otherwise gotten to learn to make; aaaand she's learned a lot of arts and craft stuff from the Art Club! Just various things, really. She's now actively trying to learn more about the spirits and maybe to talk to them in the wake of the possession plot, because she felt kinda helpless when her entire family was possessed. 8C She asked Raine for tutoring on that topic.
31) What kind of habits do they have on drafts? Are they willing to kill or do they prefer to avoid fighting? HAHA DRAFTS...Ikki's never been on one, although she was called that one time. It's highly unlikely the Avatar cast would be okay with her being taken away, and between the lot of them they can probably manage to keep it that way for now. If she ever did go on a draft she'd stick like glue to someone she knew and would attempt to help in the sense of...helping, but killing at seven with the whole "pacifistic air nomad culture" thing is SORT OF NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN, SORRY.
32) What kind of habits do they have on missions? What is their reason for going on them? What do they intend to use their points for? There aren't really missions a seven-year-old could go on, and again why would her guardians let her go on any? Ikki is aware that points are a thing, and missions are a thing, but it seems like something that has nothing to do with her.
33) How long have they been in Luceti? Has that length of time impacted them in any way?: (IE. getting used to the place, not wanting to leave, being less/more inclined to do something about their situation, so on) Ikki arrived on July 3rd, 2012, so next month she will have been in Luceti a year, not counting the ~1 month period where school forced me to idle out. :|a She's adapted in the way a small child can, especially when the grandfather she never knew but always wanted to meet is there, but she...really misses her family. A lot. Leaving to go home sounds great, but Ikki also...isn't sure what she would do, because that also means leaving everyone else, right?? She just tries not to think about it, since she doesn't really have any ideas on what to do. She's a bit more mature than she was at home (...a BIT) and is more likely to talk about grandpa/the family here than she is her family at home, these days.
34) How do they unwind and get back to normal after a brutal experiment, event, or draft? (IE. do they spend time on their own, go drink away their troubles, confide in their friends, and so on.) Spends time with her family, meditates, or asks for extra airbending practice with Aang.
35) What is their worst experience from an experiment or kidnapping? Were there any that they actually liked? ACTUALLY NOTHING TOO BAD? She didn't like almost being drafted and she hates forgetting everyone she knows and loves, but...overall, Ikki's been pretty lucky. And she enjoys the variety of stuff happening, although some of it is just plain weird. :| She actually enjoyed flying with people in the last event, and she's enjoyed some of the holiday-related events.
36) Anything else you want to note?:TREASURES, which is slightly behind in terms of being updated. ALSO FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS, ETC.
