°•∘CHARACTERISTICS∘•°
→ APPEARANCE: (face claim: Mia from everglow). Has dimples. Changes hair color but prefers blonde shades. Chubby cheeks, slim body, shorty.
→ PERSONALITY: ara is a very open minded person. she is strong willed and hardworking. she tends to look down upon herself, but always lifts everyone's spirits with her cheerfulness and presence. she is often described as a ray of sun, being warm and mother-like with her members.
she tends to overthink things a lot, and it often causes her anxiety levels to rise. ara is very open with her members about her insecurities and struggles with her mental health (diagnosed with anxiety and dysthymia), being honest and trying her best to be helpful. she's really close with all of the members and loves skinship (her mexican/latina side likes being touchy feely with everyone who she consideres a friend).
she also dances really good but will never claim the center position. she is shy at first but that's until she's comfortable; then she becomes a bubbly happy girl, always smiling and cracking jokes. her favorite trait is that her close friends always go to her for advice, comfort and hugs. she loves giving hugs and cuddling.
her biggest dream is to inspire other girls, and to be a good role model. she would love to be able to look back in the future and say she's accomplished her dreams and that she's done it thanks to her hard work and enthusiasm. she always tries to bring a smile on her members faces and will do aegyo if necessary.
she's often said to be the one who can bring peace to the dorm, even though she can get as loud as beomgyu and hueningkai. when the three of them are together, people can see her in her most comfortable moments. she claims to be in the olders line (even though she's technically in the maknaes line), so she and beomgyu decided they would be the middle childs together.
she loves animals and every chance she gets she will bring her puppy Paeki to the dorm. she tends to have difficulties waking up, she's a heavy sleeper. but once she does, her energy levels are always up until it's time to go to bed again. she can seem quiet but her members will state otherwise. she's the link between TXT and Latin MOAS, translating comments in Spanish for the boys in the VLIVEs. she always tries her best to be happy and to feel like she's succeeding her goals. she's charismatic and a big BTS fangirl. she never judges people at first because she knows better. she always is supportive of her members and their decisions, and tries her best to be a sister to them.
→ HABITS: pouts when she thinks. hums hispanic/ latin songs. dances when happy. does a little happy sound when she gives the first bite of food. holds eye contact almost always. does a sealed lip smile when upset. raises her eyebrows when concentrated. keeps a diary. every morning waters her plant (a magnolia bonsai). doesn't drink coffee unless it's iced –yeah, even in winter. bites her lips when she's trying not tu burst into laughs. laughs until she cries; laughs with her whole body. tilts her head unconsciously when concentrated. taps her fingers on her legs when nervous. speaks to herself in spanish.
→ BAD TRAITS: self conscious. very perfectionist. criticizes herself a lot. bites her nails. says 'sorry' even if it's not her fault. doesn't like to be/feel alone. very messy in her room. clingy with her loved ones. can be very loud.
→ BEST KNOWN FOR: her dimples. being the maknaes 'second noona' (after yeonjun). doing oil paintings in her free time. reading books and recommending them on weverse. always carrying around a baby chicken plushie with her. dancing out of the blue. laughing as hard and as loud as hueningkai. being the only girl. climbing on soobin's back. cracking dad jokes. shimmying when excited.
→ HOBBIES AND SKILLS: oil painting. roller skating. drawing. meditation. loves to play basketball. knitting. language learning. reading. can reach very high tones. can rap in english. learns the choreographies super fast. can fall asleep within seconds. is very empathetic. always makes her members smile. knows how to dance tango and merengue. cooks and bakes latin food (empanadas, tacos, tamales, cazuelas).
