`AND I DON'T HOLD MY TONGUE!
⇨ ✓ Music: Aoife was brought up in a household surrounded by music, which made a strong influence on her when she was younger. She enjoys singing (and despite her twin often telling her she sounds like a banshee; she’s pretty good) and also plays the harp and fiddle quite well. She can often be found either playing one of her preferred instruments or plugged into her headphones when not in class or doing homework. Her taste in music genres is eclectic, ranging from traditional Celtic music to rock songs from band such as U2.
⇨ ✓ Sport: Aoife is physically fit, and very active. She loves a wide variety of solo and team sports; most of which she plays herself and others she simply enjoys to watch. Particularly rugby, boxing, golf and archery. Rugby and archery are by far her favourite sports, and she's very good with a bow and arrow. Aoife is rather competitive, really, and it shows when she's playing some kind of sport.
⇨ ✓ Romance: Despite her tough exterior, Aoife is a romantic at heart and her favourite genres of media are romantic films or novels; more light-hearted things than serious dramas. Also, real-life romance between others always makes her go "aw". Although apparently, she isn't interested in a romance for herself. That's what she says, anyway.
⇨ ✓ Mythology and Legends: Aoife is very interested in the ancient mythology and legends of the world (in particular the ancient Celtic myths, as they are much closer to home). She has a whole collection of books dedicated to myths and legends. Also, she's quite fond of magic and the occult, believing in magical creatures and sorcery. She even claims to have been followed around by a leprechaun when she was younger. Aoife doesn't tend to share this hobby with many others, as it may come across as weird... but occasionally she does try her hand at magic. Usually this is done as to attempt to try and master other "elemental abilities" (such as hydrokinesis), but most of her attempts have back-fired up until this point.
⇨ ✓ Poetry and Literature: Aoife has a love for reading, especially stories and poems. She is sometimes in awe of how well some of her favourite writers make their words flow, and would love to have a talent for writing like that. She has a fascination with stories, and loves some of the great writers of Ireland (for example, Oscar Wilde). Often you might find her caught up in a good book if she's not working.
⇨ ✓ Hearty Food: Such as a large, warm stew on a cold winter’s day. Or potatoes! They’re versatile and part of a stable diet! Aoife has a love for warming stews, soups and dishes that are meant to fill you up. She certainly is a big eater. Yes, she loves eating. Especially hot food that is sturdy and can keep her going for longer. Aoife admittedly has quite a big appetite most of the time.
⇨ ✓ Gardening: Again, because of her country roots, Aoife has a love for growing things. She has "claimed" a small plot of land in the school grounds where she grows various flowers and plants. It something Aoife finds incredibly relaxing to do, and she'll often sneak off to her garden to escape the stress of homework.
⇨ ✓ Collecting Lucky Charms: Aoife is very superstitious and collects lucky charms to "help her get along in life", and she’s pretty sure they do work seeing as she's had a pretty good time up until this point. Her charms include a wide variety of trinkets; from her mother’s old pendant to a lucky rabbit’s foot and a four leaved clover she found and pressed when she was younger. Collecting the charms has not only become a hobby, but almost a ritual for her. They're all stored in a special box under her bed in her dorm, away from the eyes of any other student who dares try to find them.
⇨ ✓ Alcohol: Although she is technically under-aged, Aoife has had a few drinks down at the pub. She is Irish, after all! Booze is practically something that is in her DNA! Aoife particularly enjoys Guinness and whiskey, and is rather looking forward to when she becomes the legal age to drink.
⇨ ✓ The Countryside: A country girl at heart, Aoife finds that the lush green fields of the outdoors are where she belongs. There are days when she finds the school stifling, and all she wants is to run around an empty field for hours. She is considering moving back to the countryside when she finishes school; but if in the mean-time she is given the opportunity to visit for some reason, she will not hesitate to go.
⇨ ✓ Travel: Exploring other nations, cultures and places is of great interest to Aoife. She's fascinated by how even the Irish culture has influenced other nations, and Aoife will always visit an Irish pub in another country if she finds one. She loves to learn about new areas and their histories, and finds that travelling is the best way to do that.
⇨ ✓ Celebrations: Aoife does love a good old party. Festivals, parades, big gatherings always end up being a lot of fun for her, and she takes great enjoyment from attending them. They're always a good place to let your hair down as well.
AOIFE DISLIKES
⇨ ✗ Mornings: Aoife is not a morning person at all, and 99.9% of the time is in an incredibly bad mood when she wakes up. That is by far the worst time to annoy her. Besides, mornings are when hangovers are at the worst. Then, there’s that horrible feeling of having to drag yourself out of your nice warm, comfortable bed... Aoife hates it.
⇨ ✗ Bad Weather: Aoife hates being stuck indoors. And usually, the only time that happens is when the weather is not so good. So she can't stand rain, storms or the cold. Besides, bad weather tends to put a downer on the day, and it’s never exactly pleasant getting stuck in the rain and being soaked through to the bone.
⇨ ✗ Skirts and Dresses: Aoife is most certainly a tomboy, and she detests wearing anything girly. She finds that, seeing as she was always a "rough and tumble kid" who spent more time playing rugby with the boys in her home town than tea parties with the girls, she got more used to trousers. Skirts just get in the way and irritate her more than anything. She tends to dress in quite a masculine way, for both comfort and practicality, even preferring to wear the boys' uniform instead of the girls'.
⇨ ✗ Discrimination: Although definitely a rather tom-boyish teen, Aoife detests it when anyone puts women down in any way, shape or form. If anyone dares make some sort of comment she considers "sexist", she doesn't hesitate to give them an earful and throw their words right back in their face. Really, though, it's not just discrimination against women that gets her. Any kind will earn a telling off from her.
⇨ ✗ Finances: Aoife is terrible with money and often used to end up getting into serious debt. She isn't exactly organised when it comes to finance, and would just prefer letting someone else sort out her savings account.
⇨ ✗ Mispronouncing Her Name: Really, it's a pet peeve, but it frustrates her when people call her "A-oi-fe". She understands that her name has an unusual spelling, but even so! (Her name is pronounced "Ee-feh", in case anyone was wondering).
⇨ ✗ Weeds: Stupid things.... They are a total pain in the neck and ruin all the hard work she puts into her garden. Aoife tends to flip if she sees any weeds in her garden, and will spend however long it takes to completely destroy them.
⇨ ✗ Rules: They were made to be broken~ Otherwise, they can be such a hassle, a real pain in the neck and make things a little boring. Who doesn't want to break the rules every now and again?
⇨ ✗ Sunburn: Due to her pale complexion, she burns very easily. Which is a real pain when you spend most of your free time outside.
⇨ ✗ Flirts: They really get on her nerves, especially those she considers prude. Anyone who "steps out of line" with her when trying to flirt will instantly get a black eye without question.
⇨ ✗ Being Proven Wrong: Aoife is... stubborn, to say the least. If someone is able to prove that what she is doing/saying is incorrect, she doesn't take that well. This can make her lose her temper quite easily, which puts her in a bad mood and then the whole day is ruined (in her opinion).
⇨ ✗ Sweets: It's not that she hates them. Aoife just doesn't have much of a sweet tooth. She'll always rather go for a healthier option or savoury snack than a slice of cake and such. If it wasn't for the fact she likes to drink so much, some could consider her a health freak; especially when she might blatantly refuse something sweet and will instead grab a carrot from the kitchen to munch on.
FEARS
⇨ ✖ Snakes: Aoife suffers from Ophidiophobia, When she was a child, she was bitten by a snake she and her brother found on their farm and since then, to this day, she has been terrified of snakes. They are probably the one thing that truly scares her.
⇨ ✖ The Banshee: As a young girl, she was brought up on fables her father would tell her. One was about the Banshee; a ghost that wails before someone you love is about to die. Aoife was positive she heard the Banshee cry once when a neighbour passed away, and is now paranoid about hearing it again.
⇨ ✖ Loosing Her Family / Those Closest To Her: Despite the fact she doesn't appear to be particularly fond of her siblings, they actually mean a lot to her. Being family minded, she dreads the idea of them, her parents or her friends getting hurt in anyway.
QUIRKS
⇨ ~ Lucky Charms: Aoife always needs to have a lucky trinket on her. Be it her lucky earnings, a rabbit foot keyring or a lucky pendant, she just can't leave home without something. Sometimes she'll even come up with her own more quirky ideas, such as wearing odd socks and claiming it is lucky.
