[quote=ColouredCyan] First off I love Cora's hypocrisy, it makes her feel much more like a real person to me. I don't think Isolation is much of a problem, as well trained as Stitches thinks she is at this, there is a good reason she keeps getting bullied so you'll pretty much always get some response out of her, she thinks ahead but she doesn't act on it well, especially when she believes to have the upper hand. The hypocrisy runs both ways, at least that's what I'll be aiming for, which should be nice character development for the both of them. [/quote] [s]my secret plan to appear competent is working[/s] Nah, I just kinda roll with it. In a lot of ways Cora acts indepently of myself, so my saying that she is hypocritical was actually me realizing that her previous actions weren't the same as her statement. And her idea of 'pretentious' is a little different than she acts, but she's still hypocritical because she's acting superior. Much like a dog, she's trying to establish herself as the Alpha of the pack. When no one went her way, she backed off, waiting for them to show more of themselves. She'll also be pretty loyal to those whom she likes, but that will take time. Maybe a life or death situation or two.
