history

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
One in four kids is raised by a single mom. Almost 26% percent of children in the US are being raised by a single parent, which is significantly higher than the average of 14.9% across other industrialized countries. - 2012 survey
According to U.S. Census Bureau, out of about 12 million single parent families in 2014, more than 80% were headed by single mothers. - 2014 survey If you ever wondered why Nausikaa has a strong aversion to males, I'm telling you to blame her father right now. The arse hightailed it out of the country the moment he found out a woman from a one night stand was hunting him down to demand child support. He wasn't going to bother with court trials and DNA tests - he knew it was his kid. Miles Argyris remembered the face of every woman he slept with, and it came in handy in situations like these. He might've been a deserter, Nasu would grudgingly say, but the jacka$$ was clever. In fact, Nasu has a strong suspicion all her smarts were from the guy. She doesn't like entertaining the notion her father actually caused something good, so it would be best if you never bring it up. Don't even bother asking her about her mother. "Useless drunk-" followed up with a litany of derogatory terms is her standard reply. Consider yourself lucky if she doesn't shock you. The mere idea of Helia McCrae, attention-seeking aspiring actress, having an ounce of common sense makes Nasu scoff. Ha. It doesn't help that Helia had a questionable taste in names - for the gods' sake, who in a right state of mind names their daughter Nausikaa Alkyone Pitys Argyris? Honestly, Nasu has every right to suspect her idiot mother was drunk or hungover when giving the names. |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Heed the warnings while you can, because Nasu really doesn't give much of a choice. Assertiveness doesn't rub off well on certain types of people, and Nasu gets that - but it's not going to stop her. Someone has to step up and take the reins, and she's more than happy to do so. Her leadership skills are exemplary when applied in the correct situations, while on the other hand, it can grate on her peers. The "oh-my-f***ing-gods-just-shut-up-we-got-this-WITHOUT-YOU" kind of grating. It doesn't end well for the protesting party seeing as Nasu isn't such a dab hand at controlling her temper. Maybe Levin's got the fire in the CHBs, but Nasu's got the lightning. Despite always being more than ready for a good ole heated debate, Nasu has been reigning in her argumentative urges for a while now. No way is she stopping now when she's becoming better at it, and definitely no way in hell is she stopping just because some idiot thinks they're better than her. There are only a few, select topics where Nasu shilly-shallies, and the equalism vs. feminism argument is one of them. She has yet to decide whether equalism holds any promise, so for now she's settled on being a feminist. It's no secret Nasu isn't the epitome of femininity. A few sighs and head shakes have been sent her way, coupled with the typical whispers of "such a shame." She didn't care about what people thought then, she definitely doesn't care now. Physical attraction took some time (read: all her life) to understand and adjust to, and she's still struggling to understand the definition of "crushes" to this day. Apparently she was born with awfully good genes, but she doesn't truly get the whole fuss about it. The moment when she realized some of her peers were starving themselves just to be photogenic was, in her opinion, one of the most horrifying moments in her life. To say the least, she was shocked and dismayed at how society had reduced perfectly brilliant people into... this. For some time, she even despised herself for how she looked. Of course, her rational brain eventually won out and kicked her out of the stupor. It wasn't like she was the one who started all of this. Nonetheless, a shred of guilt was imbedded into a deep crevice of her mind. When it was reinforced by people who crushed on her and confessed, Sveta had a brilliant insight and jokingly nicknamed her "Rejection Queen." As light-hearted as it was, it had quite the impact and Nasu resolved to do something about the preposterous society ideals on beauty rather than just sulking. Other than being the Queen of Rejection, becoming the head of Salem's debate team has given her repute. Though her tangential manner of approach is inimitable and mostly rational so far, she occasionally pulls a classic Chewbacca Defense if she can't be arsed to deal with people's bullsh!t. If you can't dazzle them with your brilliance, baffle them with your bullsh!t, huh? Let's see whose bullsh!t comes out on to- Oh wait. There's no point in even trying, because she voided your argument the moment you started talking. Sorry darling, your arguing license is expired. Try again later. Although she is a tactical thinker first and foremost, Nasu is still human and there are times when her emotions attempt a system overdrive. She hates how humans can't logic their way out of emotion, but the bullheaded teen hasn't given up on loopholing out of this eternal predicament yet. Anger is the only emotion she can remotely keep in line, as astonishing as that is to believe. By filtering out all the other swirling dregs of fear and the likes, the corked up bottle of rage inside her shakes and fizzes out. With no more rapids to ride on, the remaining plethora of emotions become stagnant. Nasu doesn't mean to be so cold-hearted sometimes; it's just her coping mechanism. |

*Hamburgers are her life. *She zaps Tristan as a greeting instead of saying hello. *Quidditch sounds like hell to her since she's afraid of heights. *Whenever anyone brings her acrophobia up, they're bound to be viciously berated. *Her Sensing preference is extremely mild, so she comes off as an ENTP at times. *She was crowned the "queen of rejection" after she turned down 7 people who asked her out. (4 boys, 3 girls) *Adrian and Tristan are the only males she can tolerate in the group. She's biased as hell and dotes on Adrian. ("Char is so damn lucky to have a brother like that. If I could, I'd adopt both of them.") *She had an honest-to-goodness fanclub back in Muggle school. You have no idea how relieved she was to escape that. *Karla doesn't terrify her in the slightest. *She's extremely overprotective of all the girls. Being one of the eldest (if not the eldest) is a job she takes seriously. *She and Tristan constantly make bets on who can cause the most trouble. *While the concept of 'shipping' is still an alien to her, she politely manages to withstand Becca and Sveta's rigorous gushing. *She's decided to refer to her half-sister as her aunt until she's of age. It felt flat out weird to call the woman her sister with the huge age gap. *She seldom uses makeup. "It's a waste of time."
