** If only Lucina survives in ''Future Past 3'', the conversation with Grima once the Avatar wrests temporarily control back changes entirely. It goes from bittersweet, yet ultimately hopeful, to something that is a PlayerPunch at its finest, because the utter ''despair'' in the Avatar's dialogue comes across so painfully clear. And while it's agonizing on its own, if the Avatar is Chrom's wife and Lucina's mother, it adds a whole new dimension to the dialogue: [[labelnote:Script]]'''Grima:''' ...Run...Chrom...
'''Chrom:''' What?
'''Grima:''' You have to...get away from me...
'''Chrom:''' Wh-what are you talking about?
'''Grima:''' ...There's...no time... ...I don't want...to kill you... ...I can't bear...to watch you... ...die again...
'''Chrom:''' No. That voice... It can't be... Whoa!
''(Shepherds disappear)''
'''Lucina:''' Father? ...Father! Where did he go?
'''Grima:''' ...He's...safe...
'''Lucina:''' You mean...you're the one who...
'''Grima:''' ...Yes...I sent him back to his own world...before I could do him harm...
'''Lucina:''' But...Grima would never let the exalt leave here alive!
'''Grima:''' ...... ...No... He would not... ...Please...you must listen... ...I have been dealt a grievous blow... ...and must...sleep... ...That is your only chance... ...You must complete the Awakening... ...before my slumbering ends...
'''Lucina:''' Why are you telling me this?
'''Grima:''' ...Because I must be destroyed... ...and you are the only hope of it...
'''Lucina:''' What? But...
'''Grima:''' ...I murdered your father... ...just as I murdered legions of Ylisseans... ...I snuffed out the very Voice of the divine dragon... ...and I just finished killing the friends you sent for the Gemstones...
'''Lucina:''' No...
'''Grima:''' ...Don't you hate me? ...I'm the cause of all this... ...If it weren't for me, you would never have had to take up the sword... ...You and your loved ones would be living in peace... ...I am to blame for everything... ...You must destroy me, Lucina...
'''Lucina:''' You needn't tell me how much I hate you... I...LOATHE you... But... If you were really Grima, why would you seek your own demise... And why does your voice now seem so...so painfully familiar? You're a human, aren't you—a person, like us? Grima is using you to—
'''Grima:''' ...I am Grima! There is nothing human about me!
'''Lucina:''' ......
'''Grima:''' ...I have always been the fell dragon... ...since the day I was born... ...I wish that I were human! That I could have lived a normal life with you! ...But I'm not, and I can't...

!!'''This troper provides examples of:'''
* BrutalHonesty: Never maliciously, though. Just when LighterAndSofter isn't working.
* TheCombatPragmatist
** TryingToCatchMeFightingDirty
* ConsummateLiar: Of the Truth Twister variety.
** DoubleSpeak
** ExactWords
** EyesNeverLie: Sure they do. And they do it well.
** ThePowerOfActing
** SarcasticConfession
** [[YouDidntAsk You Didn't Ask]]
* DeadpanSnarker
* DoNotGoGentle: Never.
* [[ItsForABook It's for a Book]]: If anyone looked into my browser history when it cames to Internet searches, they'd probably be horrified by some of the questions I've posed. I ''do'' write, though, and research ''in general'' happens to be one of my hobbies, so this trope is actually the truth in my case. ...[[OrIsIt Or is it]]? [[spoiler:It is.]]

* LoopholeAbuse[=/=]BotheringByTheBook: I can do both!
* MagnificentBastard
** XanatosSpeedChess
* [[PromotionToParent Promotion to Co-Parent]]
** AbsurdlyYouthfulMother
* ShutUpHannibal: You can't tell me anything I don't already know. Honestly, [[HannibalLecture Hannibal Lectures]] just don't work on me. It's hard to undermine the [[strike:massive ego]] confidence of someone who knows herself completely and accepts what she is, weakness of character and all.

!!Video games!
* ''[[AceAttorney Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney]]'': My absolute favourite DS games to ever exist. [[BaseBreaker But don't talk to me about GS4]]. No. No. Don't even fucking talk to me. I don't want to hear it. [=GS4=] is dead to me. DEAD! ...''Investigations'' is in my good books, though.
* ''[[AssassinsCreed Assassin's Creed]]'': I couldn't ''stand'' this game at first -- in fact, I simply looked up all of the plot and the ending, because while I considered the actual plot pretty badass, the gameplay made me want to tear out my hair. However, I was given the sequel for Christmas, and I promptly fell in love with ''that''. Of course, now that I have an HDTV and can actually ''read the on-screen instructions'' for ACI and see what I'm doing (not having an HDTV is apparently a crime, so far as the AC dev team is concerned), I finally played the game through.
** Also, ''God'', Altaïr is a [[JerkAss jackass]] of [[BeyondTheImpossible the nth degree]] in the beginning. I spent a lot of time going "SHUT UP JUST SHUT ''UP'' BEFORE YOU GET US INTO EVEN ''DEEPER'' SHIT, IDIOT!" At least [[CharacterDevelopment he improves as the game goes on]]. However, playing the first game ''after'' having played the second one is giving me a ''lot'' of insight into how much better the gameplay in ACII is. There's just no comparison in quality. Don't get me wrong; ACI is a decent game. But ACII blows it out of the water. I'm having freedom and variety withdrawals. Not to mention that I'm really, really missing [[SceneryPorn the beauty of Italy]].
*** I would like to note, however, that in terms of ''characters'', as much as I love Ezio ([[BadassFamily and his family]]), the character development of Altaïr (and [[TheLancer Malik]]), as well as his path to redemption and his shifting relationship with Malik from hatred to absolute trust drew me in a little bit more.
* ''[[AssassinsCreed Assassin's Creed II]]'': One of my favourite games, full stop, as I'm sure you've gathered. I think I've played through it at least six times. I actually started a new file partway through my first one, however, ''just to get back to one scene''. The hugging Leonardo scene. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. I missed the button prompt, and he looked like a [[KickTheDog kicked puppy]]. Seriously, [[VideogameCaringPotential if you don't feel bad for missing that hug the first time]], you have ''no soul''.
* ''{{Bayonetta}}'': Um, ''yeah''. The game itself is a CrowningMomentOfAwesome so far as I'm concerned. And I ''love'' Bayonetta herself. She's the female heroine I didn't even know I was waiting for. RefugeInAudacity cranked UpToEleven and then BeyondTheImpossible, and I fucking ''loved'' it.
* ''[[MarvelUltimateAlliance Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 2]]'': This game's resolution is the way [[{{Comicbook/CivilWar}} Civil War]] ''should'' have ended. Instead, we got the comic book clusterfuck of [[DarkerAndEdgier Darker And Edgier]], [[TrueArtIsAngsty True Art Is Angsty]], and [[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids Silly Rabbit Idealism Is For Kids]]. I never thought that I'd long for the GoldenAge, but even though it was cheesy as hell, there was ''hope''. No matter how bad things got, somehow the heroes -- who were actually ''heroes'', not just a group of increasingly-cynical [[AntiHero anti-heroes]] -- managed to find a way, and good would eventually triumph over evil. Nowadays the best readers can expect is that no one stabs anyone else in the back, gets killed, or [[StartOfDarkness takes the first step into the dark side]] in the next issue. Oh, and don't even bother getting attached to a non-anti-hero. Since [[SillyRabbitIdealismIsForKids idealism is for kids]], any hero who is honestly ''good'' is probably going to be killed off soon enough.
** In short, I'll be hiding in the game's canon until further notice.
* ''{{Prototype}}'': My current obsession, both to play and [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife on here]]. Seriously. I ''stalk'' its page. Also, [[BadassNormal Captain]] [[EnemyMine Cross]] is my personal EnsembleDarkhorse. In my mind, he's [[spoiler:magically still alive somehow. Like, maybe [[TheDragon the Supreme Hunter]] only managed to [[JustAFleshWound bite a chunk out of him]], and now [[HesJustHiding he's off healing somewhere]]. I NEED TO BELIEVE THIS. Cross was such a good character]].
* ''[[SaintsRow Saints Row 2]]'': First one was okay, but the second one? I made a character who looked like me, and [[IncrediblyLamePun went to town]]. Both metaphorically ''and'' [[DontExplainTheJoke literally]]. I generally describe ''Saints Row 2'' as ''GrandTheftAuto IV'', [[TakeThat except fun]].
* ''TheWorldEndsWithYou'': The thing that impressed me most about this game (once I stopped wanting to toss it across the room over it) was the battle system. Grinding actually ''isn't boring''. The world was really fucking intriguing, too; the Game, the Reapers, the Composer... and all of the Secret Reports, which are basically all [[MindFuck varying degrees of mindfuckery]].
!!!Video game related
* [[StrategyGuide Strategy Guides]]: I love these things. ''Love'' them. In fact, at this point, it could be said that I've started to collect them. If I really enjoy a game, I'll buy the strategy guide for it, and I'm more than will to spend the extra money for the special edition, if there is one. I love all of the little extras that are put in the guides, and the concept art, character bios, and everything else. I tend to play games for the characters and storyline as much as the gameplay, if not moreso, so I end up wanting to know ''everything''. Currently I have the following strategy guides:
** Assassin's Creed (Limited Edition Bundle)
** Assassin's Creed II (Collector's Edition)
** Final Fantasy VII
** Final Fantasy VIII
*** The best strategy guide I have ''ever'' seen, full stop.
** Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift
** Kingdom Hearts
** Kingdom Hearts II (Collector's Edition)
** Pokemon Platinum
*** This thing has more spreadsheets than an economics class, I shit you not.
** Prototype
** The World Ends With You\\
.\\
I ''would'' have a guide for Bayonetta, but do you think I can get a hold of a copy? No. Of course not.

!!This troper provides examples of...
* {{Asexual}}: Of course, trying to get people to understand this seems to be even harder than [[NoBisexuals trying to explain that bisexuality exists]].
* BerserkButton: Anti-Choice, misogyny, cruelty toward cats. Does it count as a BerserkButton if my anger is expressed as TranquilFury rather than UnstoppableRage, though?
* BewareTheNiceOnes: I am a [[NiceGuy nice person]]. That does not mean that I don't have a backbone.
** GoodIsNotDumb: It also does not mean that I'm an idiot.
* [[BigBrotherInstinct Big Sister Instinct]]: Liek woah.
* CanadaEh: I do not pronounce "about" as "aboot". I have never heard ''anyone'' pronounce it "aboot".
* [[strike:[[CantHaveSexEver Can't]]]] [[CantHaveSexEver Won't Have Sex, Ever]]: Not for religious reasons, though, or because I think that SexIsEvil (quite the opposite, in fact). See: {{Asexual}}.
* CharacterAlignment
** NeutralGood; as in LawfulGood, unless I ever [[ToBeLawfulOrGood hit a situation]] where [[ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight the law or the rules are wrong]].
* ChildfreeIsNotAllowed: Subverted. I will never have children. My family is totally cool with that.
* ChildHater: I am ''not''. Childfree does not equal ChildHater, no matter what some people will tell you. I'm excellent with kids. I just need to be able to give them back after a bit.
* ClusterFBomb: I... I tend to swear a lot. As in, I often use curse words for punctuation when I'm talking. I curb it in polite company and in the work setting, though.
* CombatPragmatist: Hey, if I ever get into a [[LetsGetDangerous real fight]], I have no problem [[TryingToCatchMeFightingDirty kicking honour to the curb]]. To be honest, it's probably [[NonActionGuy the only way I'd have a chance at winning]].
* ConsummateLiar: I should have a silver tongue.
* CoolBigSis: Hey, even my brother confirms this.
* CoolLoser: I WAS UNCOOL BEFORE BEING UNCOOL WAS COOL. >(
* DarkSkinnedRedhead: Nope. I am likely to catch fire if you leave me in the summer sun for too long. And by "too long" I mean "[[BeyondTheImpossible more than five minutes]]".
* DeadpanSnarker
* DeathSeeker: While suicidal, I put myself at [[ShapedLikeItself great risk of death]], including driving recklessly and too fast. As in "seventy klicks over the limit" too fast on highways. I also stopped eating, except when I absolutely ''had to'', and denied myself sleep; essentially running myself into the ground by refusing my body what it needed to function properly.
* DeniedFoodAsPunishment: I used to do this to ''myself''. I was never anorexic, mind you. I denied myself food because doing so was painful, not because of any body issues. I don't ''have'' any body issues.
* TheDeterminator
* DespairEventHorizon: Totally flew past one of these at breakneck speed! It marked the [[HeroicBSOD mental breakdown]] that caused me to be a DeathSeeker for a while. Don't worry, IGotBetter. Not ''cured'' better, since that's impossible, but ''able to handle it'' better. Meds and therapy work wonders.
* EverybodyHatesHades: Averted. He's my favourite male deity ''ever''. Mostly because he's one of the few who doesn't go around raping people. Except for Persephone, but that was rape in the archaic sense of the word, and it was [[ValuesDissonance considered an acceptable way to gain a wife back then]]. He also won her over by treating her well instead of [[StockholmSyndrome expecting her to just fall in love]], and let her go back to her mother for a part of each year. Hades was practically a ''saint'' by the standards of his day.
* [[EvilRedheads Evil Redhead]]: Well I sure as hell hope not. D:
* FetishFuel ([[FetishFuelStationAttendant Station Attendant]]): [[RapunzelHair Long-haired]], [[HeroesWantRedheads redheaded]], [[HotLibrarian glasses-wearing]] [[NerdsAreSexy hot geek]] who ''does'' occasionally [[LettingHerHairDown let her hair down]], but would like to note that hair that is just over three feet long makes a person [[{{Understatement}} very hot, very quickly]] when not tied back. And I mean that in the sense of ninety-degree-day uncomfortable warm, [[IThoughtItMeant rather than what you might think]].
* FieryRedhead: Averted. It's hard to anger me, [[TranquilFury I don't express my anger in an uncontrolled manner]], and I cool down quickly. I'm generally really laid-back.
* ForgetsToEat
* GreenEyes
* {{Hallucinations}}: In a manner of speaking. I used to see "illusions" when under extreme stress. In other words, I was well aware that what I was seeing wasn't real -- all the same, I [[ForcedToWatch couldn't stop myself]] from seeing them. The walls would melt, fans would appear to be spinning while completely still, figurines would seem to move out of the corner of my eye, and the fact that I ''knew'' none of it was really happening didn't make them going away.
* HighOctaneNightmareFuel: You know those illusions I just described? Yeah, they fit this pretty well.
* [[{{ptitleb2n8x0k6}} I Know You're In There Somewhere Fight]]: One of the many ways my mother kept me from committing suicide was by constantly reminding me that the hysterical, suicidal person wasn't the real me, and that I ''needed'' to fight the illness.
* InTheBlood: Some people get things like flawless skin and a great metabolism. [[TheMentallyDisturbed Some people get more questionable genetics]].
** ItRunsInTheFamily
* KindheartedCatLover: Very much so.
* KnifeNut: Not so much with the 'nut', but I ''do'' like them, and carry a pocket knife with me at all times. Look, that thing comes in handy. I'm also beginning to learn how to throw knives. A useless skill, really, but I'm doing it more for the discipline and concentration benefits than the actual ability itself. I'd like to try archery, but lessons are [[{{Understatement}} a bit expensive]], so that will have to wait.
** Of course, when doing those irritating 'say your name and tell us one interesting fact about yourself' introductions, being able to say, "I'm Redazrael and I'm proficient with throwing knives," is [[AttentionWhore hard to top]].
* TheMentallyIll: You think? In case you missed it: Severe double depression and social anxiety, with scattered traits of Borderline Personality Disorder, although not enough to warrant an official diagnosis in the case of BPD. Also afflicted with Adult-Onset ADD -- although I would like to note that I do ''not'' have a learning disability, despite what people [[{{UnfortunateImplications}} generally assume of people with ADD]]. I held a steady A+ average as a student, and I pick up on new things extremely quickly, especially when it comes to languages.
* MistakenForGay: May have something to do with my penchant for complimenting women when I find them to be absolutely gorgeous. Look, if someone's beautiful, I think you ought to ''tell them''. It's nice to hear that kind of thing, you know?
* NervesOfSteel: After hitting a patch of black ice while attempting to merge onto a highway, my car spun out across four lanes of traffic, doing around 80kmh. A transport truck miraculously missed me, probably by bare inches. My car then slammed into the cement barrier, narrowly avoiding doing so head-on. The ''entire time'' that all of this was happening, from the moment I spun out, [[DissonantSerenity I was completely calm]]. I stayed calm, too -- the spin-out never bothered me. My biggest concern was that my car was all right[[hottip:*:It was -- apparently the main reason for this was a combination of luck, because no one hit me, and skill, because I counter-steered, didn't slam on the brakes, and managed to control the slide as much as possible.]]. It didn't frighten me, and I was on the road the next day.
** And yet I can't watch horror movies.
* NoIndoorVoice: [[SelfDemonstratingArticle I LIKE USING ALLCAPS FOR EMPHASIS]]. This actually also applies to in-person encounters with me as well; if I get excited about something, my voice tends to progressively get louder and louder unless someone calls me on it and reminds me to tone it down. This is a result of my father's side of the family having [[NoIndoorVoice No Indoor Voices]], ''ever'', at any time.
* NoMedicationForMe: ''Heavily'' subverted. Being on medication is a large part of the reason that I'm currently a functioning human being instead of a [[HeroicBSOD complete wreck]].
* NoPeriodsPeriod: GOD I WISH THIS WERE THE CASE.
* OnlinePersonas: Might as well make a list.
** [-ADarkerMe: Averted. I act the same on the Internet as I do [[RealLife in real life]], save for the fact that I feel far more comfortable discussing interests that [[{{Understatement}} aren't as openly accepted offline]]. I can't bring myself to fulfil the [[{{GIFT}} Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory]] because I have this problem where I realize that there are real people with [[DidYouThinkICantFeel actual feelings]] on the other side of the screen.-]
** [-CamWhore: No, no, no! I don't put pictures of myself on the Internet. I just ''don't''. Because once you put it on there, [[ProperlyParanoid it will never be gone]], and I don't want to get into a situation where I can NeverLiveItDown.-]
** [-DigitalAvatar: I like these things. There are a lot of clever ones out there, and they can give an insight into a person's interests. While some people will use one representing a fandom they love, I tend to make mine more neutral; the avatar I use on here is a close-up of a garter snake's eye, for example. If I'm actually creating a humanoid avatar to represent myself, I honestly tend toward a resemblance to my actual looks. At the least, I usually retain the red hair and freckles if I can.-]
** [-DriveByUpdater: I play this role a lot, unless I'm currently very interested in the subject/trope. I actually do take the time to learn the guidelines, however, since I have a chronic fear of causing unnecessary problems. (So if I have ever done something incorrectly, rest assured that [[JustTryingToHelp I didn't mean it]], and send me a message telling me what I did wrong so I won't repeat the mistake.)-]
** [-InternetColdReader: I will occasionally do this [[ForTheLulz for kicks]], though always with the understanding that [[SarcasmMode I'm not actually being serious]]. Unless my target is [[AssholeVictim totally asking for it]]. Even then, I'm [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold not that much of an asshole]], and I don't take [[KickTheDog cheap shots]].-]
** [-LeftFielder: I am guilty of this on occasion, though never intentionally. I will apologize and get back on topic when reminded, I swear.-]
** [-NinjaEditor: Guilty of this for reasons of typo-fixing.-]
** [-TheShepherd: I can't help it. I hate it when people are being unfairly abused, especially when it's just an honest mistake.-]
* OpenMindedParent: ILU MOM.
* [[ThePowerOfLove The Power Of]] ''[[ThePowerOfLove Unconditional]]'' [[ThePowerOfLove Love]]: Literally the reason I'm [[DeathSeeker still alive]]. It's what kept me from taking that [[DrivenToSuicide final step]].
* PromotionToParent
* ProperlyParanoid: Look, what happens on the Internet stays on the Internet. The problem is that the statement is ''literal''.
* RapunzelHair: ''Not'' as long as the example (dear god, no) but down to my thighs. Measures just over three feet in length.
* RedHeadedHero: Well, I had ''better'' be the hero of my own life, or else I must be failing pretty epically.
* RedHeadedStepChild: SUBVERTED, EVERYONE LOVES ME.
* [[ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right]]
* SmallNameBigEgo: Not ''really'', in the sense of being [[UweBoll an insufferable asshole who is convinced of their own superiority]], but more in the sense that I know what I'm good at, and I'm not going to talk down my skills because there seems to be some kind of unwritten social rule that it's arrogant to openly believe that you're talented even when ''other people'' say so. I don't go around bragging, but if someone tells me that I am good at something, I will thank them politely and agree. On the other hand, I also know that I completely and utterly fail [[{{Understatement}} at many things]], and have no problem admitting it.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: My real name is phonetic, yet ''no one can fucking spell it''.
* TalkativeLoon: Unless I'm deliberately speaking at a normal pace, I talk ''incredibly'' fast, to the point where I can come across this way. The effect is [[ShaunOfTheDead exacer]][[HotFuzz bated]] when I'm excited, which can make me appear to cross into CloudCuckoolander territory.
** Which is not to say that I can't be a TalkativeLoon or a CloudCuckoolander on occasion.
* ThereAreNoGirlsOnTheInternet: >:( What are you implying? Do you want to reconsider that statement, [[LetsGetDangerous or should we just]] [[InternetToughGuy take this outside]]?
* ThereAreNoTherapists: Just as heavily subverted as NoMedicationForMe. If I hadn't gone to therapy, I wouldn't have gotten better.
* WhatYouAreInTheDark
* [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did It Have To Be Centipedes]]: In far more pressing circumstances, I have NervesOfSteel. But do you think I can handle a centipede? Hell, I can't even stand to ''throw a heavy object at it'', let alone get close enough to actually [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel squish and kill it myself]]. Just their ''movements'' make me want to shriek, and I'm paranoid about being in the room where I saw one for ''hours'' afterwards.
** [[HauntedHouse Haunted Houses]] (as in the carnival-attraction variety) also freak me out. ''Even though I know they're not real''.
* [[WiseBeyondTheirYears Wise Beyond Her Years]]: Common consensus indicates that I fit this trope.
* XanatosSpeedChess: I'm damned good at this. ''Damned'' good. Especially when it comes to [[ConsummateLiar lying on the fly]].

** [-ADarkerMe: Averted. I act the same on the Internet as I do [[RealLife in real life]], save for the fact that I feel far more comfortable discussing interests that [[[{{Understatement}} aren't as openly accepted offline]]. I can't bring myself to fulfil the [[{{GIFT}} Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory]] because I have this problem where I realize that there are real people with [[DidYouThinkICantFeel actual feelings]] on the other side of the screen.-]

* ''[[AssassinsCreed Assassin's Creed II]]'': One of my favourite games, full stop, as I'm sure you've gathered. I think I've played through it at least six times. I actually started a new file partway through my first one, however, ''just to get back to one scene''. The hugging Leonardo scene. Yeah, you know what I'm talking about. I missed the button prompt, and he looked like a kicked puppy. Seriously, [[VideogameCaringPotential if you don't feel bad for missing that hug the first time]], you have ''no soul''.

** [-CamWhore: No, no, no! I don't put pictures of myself on the internet. I just ''don't''. Because once you put it on there, [[ProperlyParanoid it will never be gone]], and I don't want to get into a situation where I can NeverLiveItDown.

** [-DriveByUpdater: I play this role a lot, unless I'm currently very interested in the subject/trope. I actually do take the time to learn the guidelines, however, since I have a chronic fear of causing unnecessary problems. (So if I have ever done something incorrectly, rest assured that I didn't mean it, and send me a message telling me what I did wrong so I won't repeat the mistake.)-]

* NoIndoorVoice: [[SelfDemonstratingArticle I LIKE USING ALLCAPS FOR EMPHASIS]].

* BerserkButton: Anti-Choice, misogyny, cruelty toward cats.

* DespairEventHorizon: Totally flew past one of these at record speed! It marked the [[HeroicBSOD mental breakdown]] that caused me to be a DeathSeeker for a while. Don't worry, IGotBetter. Not ''cured'' better, since that's impossible, but ''able to handle it'' better. Meds and therapy work wonders.

* XanatosSpeedChess: I'm damned good at this. ''Damned'' good. Especially when it comes to [[ConsummateLiar lying on the fly]].

* FetishFuel: [[RapunzelHair Long-haired]], [[HeroesWantRedheads redheaded]], [[HotLibrarian glasses-wearing]] [[NerdsAreSexy hot geek]] who ''does'' occasionally [[LettingHerHairDown let her hair down]], but would like to note that hair that is just over three feet long makes a person [[{{Understatement}} very hot, very quickly]] when not tied back. And I mean that in the sense of ninety-degree-day uncomfortable warm, [[IThoughtItMeant rather than what you might think]].

[[ThirdPersonPerson Redazrael]] is a [[CanadaEh Canadian]] girl, through and through. She's also a [[strike:[[AcceptableEthnicTargets ginger kid]]]] redhead who subverts pretty much every negative redhead trope going, although she plays straight the ''physical'' traits that are stereotypical of being a redhead, which is apparently FetishFuel for some ''[[AbhorrentAdmirer total strangers]]'', considering [[DoubleEntendre the kind of comments]] they've made.
