The thing I like about your Feferi is you don't portray her as overly sensitive or overly feminine. I think a lot of people would be tempted to either make her a snob or a girl completely obsessed with looks or something like that, but you don't and the result is a well balanced more realistic character. I think its hard to make, cheerful characters especially, realistic since most people are not so happy go lucky. Even in real life when I meet overtly cheerful people I often find them to be annoying or fake, probably a personal bias but I only bring it up in order to mention that despite her cheer I never feel that way about Feferi. She is a talkative happy carefree girl who cares about her friends and even random strangers. I think this portrayal really makes absolute sense, especially given her history of taking care of the ocean dwelling fauna on Alternia. Where as some people make her a bit bitchy in there interpretation of her carelessness you instead go for a more complex route, in my opinion and I might be giving this point an inflated importance, but thats how I feel!

However another aspect of Feferi seems to me to be her sort.. of... obliviousness. She often doesn't seem to realize how her actions effect the others. There's a lot of things I could say on the matter like, how it could be effected by her growing up alone in the ocean, or even how she is to focused on a sort of big picture mentality, but the point is that I think this is a more difficult concept about her to grasp. She isn't in a huge chunk of the comic and is one of the last characters introduced, she only really has pesterlogs with Kanaya and Eridan I think, so going off just these basic facts you were able to delve so deep into her character and hit not only the surface level cheeriness and caring nature but also get to her sort of... flightiness, as I've heard you describe it. I think this really speaks to your knowledge of the character and ability to play her.

Finally I just want to say that Feferi is a character I didn't like at all and you managed to make her more real and make me feel more empathatic towards her. Sometimes I think that I like her too much now, and you're always reminding me Feferi isn't perfect either, which I think is hilarious given my initial dislike of her. And of course do I even need to say it, I'm still a hardcore kk/sollux girl, but you really sold me on Feferi and Sollux, if they end up being matesprits or moirails I don't mind but they definitely match up well and balance each other. Feferi brings him up and sometimes he brings her down, when she needs it anyway. Sometimes Feferi needs someone saying eh, slow down a little there. And watching her talk a mile a minute saying how come she should actually go and just arguing her out of it or something XD I realize I just typed a lot but I've commented on everyone else who I think does a good job and I realized still hadn't given you any feedback.

In short, I love your Feferi! Threading with you is always a blast. :] Don't forget about fac when you get into sing. (I already know you won't) ♡

szrgjkzdre aki, this is so well thought out and nice I can't even :< I mean in a good way! Not evening that is. I opened this in one of my classes and it was so hard not to blush. Actually I probably did :|' yeah.

You get a lot of credit here too ma'am, playing off Sollux and just chatting things over with you really help me figure things out regarding Feferi. Working with her flightiness for example, your opinions on things have helped me a lot in developing that, besides of course just dealing with Sollux- how much she can help with and how much it takes to get under her skin, ect. So thank you :]

Bluh I need to go back to doing this dumb book and bake sale stuff, but thank you <3 this made my slightly crappy day so much better! I'll harass you on aim later about it ♥
