Fears: heights, thunder/lightning
Personality: Airini has always been very quiet and patient, the sort to listen rather than to talk. Even when she was very young, she was rarely ever vocal except when prompted to say something- and covered her ears at loud noises like thunder. It wasn't long either before she was diagnosed with high-functioning autism, due to her though process not fitting within normal standards. If it's brought up though, she sees it as an advantage to think so logically- and doesn't understand criticism of it. She will listen to arguments that seem logical however, ignoring any insults or anger directed towards her in the process- and try to find a solution as quickly as is possible. She has at the least learned to understand expressions and idioms, and try to show proper emotions- but if someone catches her when she's not prepared, she will show how draining it all is for her. Really she relates with the animals better, and their simple wants and needs and caring for them.
She only went into customer service because her Older Brother wanted her to get more used to dealing with people, and she just doesn't know how to say no to him. She is less rigid around people she gets used to however, more and more showing her natural state of her own choice and hoping they understand and don't misinterpret her. There are of course exceptions- even though she doesn't understand people's criticism of her condition, if they continue to she will more and more put in the effort to 'fake' normal emotions and social interaction.
Then there's the matter of her androgynous features- She doesn't think it should matter, but does get pissed when people mistake her for a guy. In the case of a particularly beautiful other female, she will simply play along until someone else reveals her true gender. She mostly does this out of spite, you see- She doesn't normally complain about anything otherwise, but it's become her way of venting her frustrations- that may well hold the key to her heart as far as another female earning romantic interaction from her.
♕ DIDN'T MAKE SENSE NOT TO LIVE FOR FUN ♕
Roleplay Sample: First day at work, worst day to wake up late. Airini stared at her clock in shock as her eyes opened, awkwardly bolting out of bed. If there was one thing she hated, it was any deivations from the schedule she set up for herself- and so she got clothed and cleaned extra quickly, her mind racing on and on as she did so. 'Oh bloody fuck what is my boss going to think or say if I'm late.' She kept saying that to herself over and over in her mind, getting herself into the garage once she was all squeaky clean and properly dressed. Bryan had taken the Beetle it looked like- so she was stuck with the Motorcycle. How unsafe, she loathed the things. Still she had no choice it seemed, as she made sure her helmet was well secured and mounted it. Slowly she turned it on and revved the engine, waiting for it to calm down a bit again before taking the vehicle out of park and into drive, making extra sure to obey the speed limit.
As she came to a stop sign she turned on the Pandora app on her iPhone, using the built in speakers of the helmet to her full advantage in enjoying her music. Vida La Vida by the Dallas String Quartet came on, and she hummed along as she carefully remembered the instructions to the place- parking her motorcycle in the employee parking lot. Ah, good- she actually had fifteen minutes to spare since she was so quick. The question was had anyone seen her run those red lights?
