writers_muses - Character dossier
Is your muse the jealous kind?
Not inherently, no. She's surrounded by jealous men, so she's just about had it up to here with jealousy. The only thing she experiences that's close to jealousy is curiosity; she often thinks about how different her life might have been, not that she'd ever actually change it.
What kinds of things make them jealous or envious?
Again, it's more curiosity, but in her Original Verse she feels it towards high-powered women and before Grace came along, towards women with babies.
Does your muse believe they have a soul?
Martha is not very spiritual nor is she religious. But as far as she's continued, hearts and souls are somewhat synonymous. And she is all about the heart.
Are they mortal or Immortal?
A mortal surrounded by immortals essentially. Which is difficult.
What do they believe happens to them after they die?
She doesn't think about it. She's not afraid of death, and she doesn't really care what happens to her when she dies, she only cares about what happens to those she cares about.
Do they forgive easily?
Generally. Aside from her parents, who seem to be the only two people in the world she could never truly forgive.
What kinds of things could they never forgive?
Well, she hates bad parents. She doesn't think there's anything worse than being a bad parent. Which is precisely why she'll never forgive hers. But she feels very uncomfortable judging other parents because there's so much she can never know about them.
What renders your Muse at a loss for words?
Lots of things. She has trouble responding to compliments and to grand gestures. She's the type to just "....." at stuff for awhile. But she's good with words generally so she'll pick it back up pretty quick.
What time of day is their worst?
Well, she hates being alone. So during the day, in both verses, can be hard for her, when she's left on her own while the menfolk go out into the world.
What time of day is their best?
That said, the daytime is her best as well as her worst. She feels restless and bored at night. And while she may be restless and bored during the day, the fact that there's sun and life is enough for her. She's a mass of contradictions, what can I say?
