I don't post here too often but I now co-own Natasha with Chasing Dreams and she co-owns my kia Kalani with me ;v;
That said, I'd like to open Natasha for some RPs (1-2 RPs preferably)Growing up, Natasha often dabbled in everything she could get her hands in. Cooking, reading, video games, swimming, computers, etc. Eventually, she realized that she wanted to be admired, wanted to be seen as beautiful, graceful, and strong, which led her to attempt the discipline of ballet. Ballerinas were everything she wanted to be seen as and at first it seemed like her calling in life. However, striving for perfection was something she quickly grew impatient with. The image of the ideal ballerina, the subjectivity of it… It became something she grew to despise. Within those raw emotions, she found two truths: She wanted to be able to control the situation rather than those around her and she wanted to be good enough at something to where it was not necessary to fret over perfection. As a teenager, those truths yielded two loves: martial arts and archery.
Perhaps the constant struggle to climb her way to the top in ballet made her far more determined to achieve her goals, but when she traded her ballet slippers in for a white belt, she found beauty in something new. The blood, sweat, and tears she had poured into being en pointe went into something far more useful: learning to defend herself and others. She had the strength for it, the reflexes, and it was a good way to release her frustrations. What frustrations, you ask? The frustrations of being told she has all of the characteristics of a dancer, the expectations that were thrust upon her, and the fact that as a ballerina, she was a pawn in their game. She was a trained professional used to cushion their wallets and it changed her physically, mentally, and emotionally.
In as little as three months, her white belt became black and a side effect of her years of ballet made her crave precision, causing her to pick up a bow and arrow. “A natural sharpshooter,” they called her. Every time she hit a bullseye, she could breathe a little easier and soon enough, it seemed as if she always had some kind of weapon on her, whether it be her bow and arrow or even a pencil used as a dart of sorts. Natasha desperately wants to be useful to others, but people find her intimidating, which makes her self-conscious of her strength. Rather than being seen as beautiful and graceful, she fears that she will be viewed as a monster for the skills she has honed. Now that she has climbed her own ladder, she worries that her tenacity will ultimately be her downfall.
