Gender: Female──────────────────────────────────────────Personality: Claire has a grumpy aspect to her. Usually seen with a frown ( or at least a half frown ), with hate bubbling inside of her. She can't help but think everything around her is just a plain ol' bother. She finds way too many things annoying or irritating. Possibly from the fact that Claire enjoys being left alone, in the corner of her room, huddled up and staring at her computer screen and typing stories. Claire can handle one or two interruptions, but after that she goes into her 'don't talk to me ever again' phase, like when she was an edgy, punk teen.
Claire struggles to show a realistic, not awkward sympathy for others. When someone is upset, she's not much of a Plumerian to show sympathy for them. The best she can really do is put her hand on their shoulders and say a simple 'don't worry'. But really, that's all. If Claire hasn't been through what someone else has been through, she finds it head-achingly hard to sooth them. Claire admittedly is much better at being a jerk than being nice.
Claire is usually very quiet, and not talkative at all. Most of her words are usually stuck floating in her head instead of coming out of her mouth. Claire mainly just sticks to herself, knowing that words can do quite a lot of damage if used incorrectly. She had to learn this the hard way when she made fun of a kid back in kindergarten, when she wasn't the quiet Plumerian she is today.
Got a secret you're desperately wanting to tell someone or just want to vent? Claire is here to help. Claire is a great listener, and if she's feeling up to it, feel free to pour all of your thoughts to her. Besides, Claire isn't going to say anything about it. She's not a backstabber where she goes around telling everyone, everything. She's quite the opposite, in fact. Like said before, Claire is quiet and doesn't really socialize a ton. So your secrets are safe with her, if you manage to get Claire willing to listen to you. But Claire is most likely not going to reply with something much calming, but she'll listen to you nonetheless.
The Plumie has a lot of creativity inside her. She gets pretty easily inspired, and doing so she started to write stories. Since she was little, Claire always found ways to make thrown out cardboard boxes and useless scraps of paper into small toy castles and miniature crafted cars. Her creativity moved and traveled on into her writing, as she started writing unique stories of all kinds ( but mainly mystery / horror stories ! ). Once and a while Claire will buy some clay from a local crafts store and model them into small figurines she paints and then puts onto her self, which is a collection of other figures she had made.

She mainly writes mystery or horror stories, but once and a while she strays away from her usual comfort zone and tries something different. Funny thing is that when in elementary school, Claire absolutely dreaded writing. She would sometimes try excuses to get out of classes when it was writing time. 90% of the time it didn't work.
Nowadays, Claire has a huge passion for writing. She hopes to officially publish a book one day, like any writer's biggest dream. Claire would be just simply ecstatic if she published a book, as it was her dream ever since she started loving writing. Claire explains writing as an 'escape without escaping'. Odd?
The story of how Claire got into writing was actually fairly simple and not so complicated. Somewhere around high school she was handed an assignment to just write a story. Claire was used to writing assignments with prompts, never getting the freedom to write anything else. She never did on her free time because, of course, she got the idea writing was no fun. After messing around and scribbling ideas down, Claire managed to finish the assignment without many complaints throughout it. It was a few weeks after summer break finished when that happened, and Claire's mind must have changed over summer break. She found the task fun. And the rest is yours to tell.

Staring off into space is normal. Tapping your foot is normal. But at the same time? At least she doesn't click her tongue as well when she's -- oh wait. She does as well. Never mind. So Claire stares off into space whilst tapping her foot and clicking her tongue.
When she's eating a cake, Claire most of the time will scrape all of the frosting off of it and separate the frosting and the cake itself. Then, she'll take the cake and dip it in the frosting that she had removed from it. She's been doing it from her fourth birthday now, and that habit hasn't changed a bit.

She was in her room, but the only light source was the light from her computer, as always. She almost always turned the lights off when she writes, mainly because it gives her more 'spooky inspiration', whatever that means. Suddenly, her door flings open and the lights flick on. It's a friend of hers. "Uh, Claire? I brought cookies...?" Parfait said. Claire stood up, walked to the door.
And she slammed it.
As Parfait yelled at her jokingly, Claire walked back to her computer. This time, her lights on and the smell of cookies drifting past her. She smiled. Not a scary scene to be inspired by, but who knows? Maybe she can turn it into one...? Claire nodded at herself, and started writing, ignoring the fact Parfait opened her door and was looking over her shoulder, laughing.
