3	Ama is an ethical, maternal, witty, whimsical, sensitive, stubborn, romantic, impatient, anxious and passionate Canadian 22-year-old female. She loves to write, likes to watch cartoons / anime, read, and believes that a cup of tea solves emotional crisis (sometimes.) Don't worry, she'll find a way to make you smile! (No, really. She's adorable. You just wait and see.)

5	[[folder:Tropes By Bottlerose ABOUT Bottlerose]]
6	* Adorkable: She [[GirlsLoveStuffedAnimals loves stuffed animals]], animated movies, fangirls over strangers (let alone close loved ones and fictional characters) and pulls a ShrinkingViolet here and there. Lapses over with TheCutie, for all intents and purposes.
7	* AloofDarkHairedGirl: Has several shades of this.
8	* ApologizesALot
9	* BewareTheNiceOnes:
10	* BigSisterInstinct / MamaBear: Towards everyone she is close to. She is highly protective of them, but also lectures them when they could have done something differently, regardless of their age or position in her life.
11	* BigSisterMentor
12	* BrainyBrunette
13	* BrokenBird: She’s more than a little messed up, but most would be hard-pressed to actually call her “broken”. Using the word to describe her counts as a BerserkButton.
14	* BrutalHonesty
15	* BuffySpeak: Courtesy of @/{{Pecanjelly}}, Gilmore Girls, Youtube and… [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife TVTropes]]!
16	* CharacterTics: Biting her bottom lip and putting her hair into a ponytail if there is work to be done or if she’s about to eat. Also, clapping.
17	* TheChick: She is encouraging, boostering teamwork and fairness, and coaxes others to realize YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre.
18	* ClingyJealousGirl: Unsurprising, given her insecurity.
19	* TheCutie: Has shades of - no, screw it, just possesses this trope.
20	* DeadpanSnarker: When she's bored, she becomes impatient, sarcastic and lazy.
21	* DarkAndTroubledPast
22	* Determinator: Her internal dialogue is often something akin to: "What? No, this can't be going to shit. I refuse to accept this. Reality cannot possibly be this lame. I won't let that happen. No. Ok, Amanda, switch gears. Now."
23	* DudeMagnet: Lampshaded frequently.
24	* TheFettered: Lives by a strong set of morals, values, ideals and beliefs. Always believes in doing the right thing.
25	* GenkiGirl: Outgoing and outspoken.
26	* GirlNextDoor: She’s very easy to talk to. She grew up as OneOfTheGuys and remains a PluckyGirl.
27	* GirlyGirl
28	* GuileHeroine: Oh so much.
29	* TheHeart: Lampshaded. She is the glue that holds people together, and has a talent for bringing them together as well. Her deep love of people, her desire to help them through her own experiences, and her childhood dream (to have a family of her own, specifically being a Mom, as far back as Kindergarten) cement her in this role.
30	* [[HeroicSelfDeprecation Self-Deprecation]]: Ama has massive insecurities, a GuiltComplex, and is very easily influenced by others.
31	* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter
32	* HopelessWithTech: Also hopeless with anything concerning the left side of her brain. Really.
33	* TheIdealist: Hopeful, optimistic, and willing to turn any situation (even the most horrifying) into something positive. Naturally, this can cross over with WideEyedIdealist.
34	* IJustWantToBeNormal
35	* IJustWantToBeFree
36	* InferioritySuperiorityComplex
37	* LivingEmotionalCrutch: Her friends lampshade the trope by name to her in real life enough for this to be valid.
38	* LongHairIsFeminine: Her long, curly hair is a practically a trademark.
39	* LovableAlphaBitch [[JerkassFacade Facade]]: She is self-absorbed, at times overconfident and even sarcastic. However, one of her traits that best reflects [[NoSocialSkills a lack of social understanding]] is that she will use these flaws as a front, allowing people to believe the worst of her, when she [[AngerBornOfWorry thinks it is necessary]], whether or not it actually IS necessary.
40	* ManipulativeBitch: At her worst, she invokes this ruthlessly. Could be considered the darkest part of her.
41	* TheMentor
42	* MoralityPet: Fills this role with more than one person.
43	* MoodSwinger: Unhealthily so.
44	* MsImagination
45	* NatureLover: Her favourite place is the forest; she keeps a garden, collects rocks, and has a strong love of the stars. Getting overly excited over watching the sun rise/set shouldn’t be unexpected, either.
46	* NiceGirl: Kind, friendly, compassionate and helpful.
47	* ThePollyanna: Optimistic and positive no matter the circumstances
48	* RedOni: Passionate, impatient, impulsive, enthusiastic and people-oriented.
49	* TheReliableOne: Subverted. She is always there for a friend or someone in need, but is still a forgetful sort of person.
50	* SilkHidingSteel: The first trope used by a friend to describe her true self, beyond her disorder.
51	* StepfordSmiler: Ama’s has a bad case of this for her entire life.
52	* TeamMom: THIS. TROPE. (Another one lampshaded by her friends, and probably the most appropriate.)
53	* ToughLove: She is impatient. Sooner or later, even Ama will say “I can’t do everything for you!” and will leave you to your own devices.

55
56	[[folder:Family]]
57	* AbusiveParents: MeddlingParents, among other things.
58	* BlackSheep: Or WhiteSheep, depending on the viewer.
59	* CoolUncle: Has several.
60	[[/folder]]
61
62	[[folder:Friendships]]
63	* AFriendInNeed: Doesn't let her friends down.
64	* ChildhoodFriends
65	* FamilyOfChoice: Often mistaken for ThePowerOfFriendship.
66	* TheOnlyOneICanTrust: Pecanjelly. She is Ama's sole support, when it comes to her bipolar disorder and life in general, due to her understanding, insightful and brutally honest nature. Considering Amanda's trust issues, this says a lot about Larissa's character.
67	* OppositesAttract: Is drawn to more down-to-earth, practical, quiet or artistic individuals.
68	* PlatonicLifePartners: With Pecanjelly again. This has been discussed at length.
69	* TrueCompanions: Played for reality. She has a group of them, they know of each other / went to school together, but are not close in and of themselves.
70	[[/folder]]
71
72	[[folder:Love And Sexuality]]
73	* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Invoked. Disliked.
74	* ChildhoodFriendRomance: HerHeartWillGoOn.
75	* CrushBlush: Horribly!
76	* DestructiveRomance: Always.
77	* HerBoyfriendsJacket: Key to her heart.
78	* ICanChangeMyBeloved
79	* InLoveWithLove
80	* PowerOfTrust: Needs this, first and foremost, as many do.
81	[[/folder]]
82
83	[[folder:Values And Ideals]]
84	* CodeOfHonor: Obviously not as intense as fictional examples. Almost every action in her life has to adhere to her personal views on respect, compassion, strength, purpose, commitment, ownership, etc. This is a very intricate part of who she is.
85	* BeYourself: A driving force in her life.
86	* EarnYourHappyEnding
87	* JustLikeUs: To be edited.
88	* LoveRedeems: Sometimes.
89	* PowerofLove: Known for this, perhaps more than anything.
90	* ScrewDestiny
91	* ScrewTheRulesImDoingWhatsRight
92	* SillyRabbitCynicismIsForLosers
93	* SuddenPrincipledStand: At least concerning her own life and other people's lives. Nothing large-scale. Eventually she reaches a point where her tolerance, patience, ability to comfort or submit to someone (or allow others do to do) breaks, and she will barrel in, a motivational speech in toe. Often involves a WhatTheHellHero.

95
96	[[folder:Tropes About Bottlerose (Added By Others)]]
97	* Badass: Overlaps with BadassAdorable. She seems to become a new woman in these moments.
98	* CovertPervert: Can come at you out of nowhere.
99	* GirlfriendInCanada: Subverted. She had a puppy love relationship with an online friend growing up, who lives in Australia, while she lives in Canada. His friends teased him about it for years. Upon seeing her for the first time over Skype, his big sister said: "Well, she's definitely not an old man."
100	* HyperAwareness: When she pays attention, her memory is amazing.
101	* IronWoobie
102	* RomanceGenreHeroines: The Free-Spirit, with shades of The Nurturer.
103	* TheTease: THE TEASE.
