Hm, Taerim! 1, 9, 18, 38, 41

1. How do they move and carry themselves? Pace, rhythm, gestures, energy?They usually walk with their head held high in an air of low key confidence. Not over exuberant or lowly curled inward. Her pace is usually in strides that are slow, lest she has a task at hand that requires her immediate attention, to which it will be swift. There’s a musicality to her words as well as her motions, with a very soft gesticulation as though conducting her statements or questions like the music she plays (or, lest she be exhausted or anxious, it is rather quick or holds a heavy weight to it all)9. How do they manifest energy, exhaustion, tension, or other strong emotions?Taerim normally is one to reserve and conduct her emotions as such, provided the years of learning not to be as hot-headed as her brother usually was in their youth. She was very similar. With a trained eye (if its not already obvious), you will see a faint heightened awareness about her, the way she holds her body as though returning to the grounded nature that comes with the end of day performances - the way her muscles contract and tighten just momentarily, reading herself with keen sight on her target to take down (potentially, or gauging with her eyes the level of said threat). Hardly brutish and some expect due to her being so large or wily, like some gangly animal, she is calculating when in her best moments and may through you for a loop should her actions succeed.(meanwhile she’s absolutely baffled about everything so her keen senses are thrown out the window atm LOL)18. What kind of person could they become in the future? What are some developmental paths that they could take, (best, worst, most likely?) what would cause them to come to pass, and what consequences might they have? What paths would you especially like to see, and why?Considering the previous progression of her and her companions journey up to now, I’ve had a LOT of ponderances as to where her story will lead. I will always vouch for a happier ending because jesus christ there’s alot of shit going on - but I see a great deal of potential going any which way for Taerim. Regardless of the point of action taken, she will always uphold the desire to keep anyone that she cares for safe and given the ability to live on safely as they should, even if it’s at her own expense. Even if she may be a host to something far more powerful than she realizes. I don’t want to word vomit too much on it as I could go on forever lmao, but I’m certainly looking forward to quite a few things that may or may not happen soon…if only for further progression of hers/her companions stories and development. How far she may actually go. (also fey bullshit cuz HEYO)38. Is there anything they wish they could change about their worldview or thought processes? What, and why?Taerim tends to be fairly worldly and understanding, or tries to be as understanding as she can depending on the people and situations. As far as anything to change, it would probably be currently how she feels. No one can be level headed all the time, but alot of what she’s learned and has experienced up to this point has thrown the worldly bard for a loop, which she’d prefer to return to her previous mindset, and not be thrust back into a feeling that is akin to how she was when she first started traveling. 41. What associations do they bring to mind? Words or phrases, images, metaphors or motifs? Why?Nighttime, firelight, music about the air, homeliness, found family, filling warm food, the sound of bells, dripping in jewels
