Hysteria Aubergine :D2: WIP

Hysteria Aubergine| D2 | 15.

hysteria

noun

1. exaggerated or uncontrollable emotion or excitement.

Her name is her. Hysteria. Her father named  her (rather stupidly) and she grew into it. It's a tradition, like Wallflower or Litheness or Temerity or any of the relatives she has. And she is certainly very hysterical. She can't last an hour without laughing somewhat. Her siblings call her Hissy because her breathy giggles sound like a hissing cat, which is convenient, since it is also short for Hysteria. Someone said laughter is the best calorie burner, and it seems to be true in her case because she's surprisingly thin, because she is too busy training to eat. Her golden hair rolls down in smooth, buoyant curls and finishes below her shoulder. The hay-like mass is usually knotty and tangled, due to the fact she cannot be bothered to comb it, she doesn't care about what she looks like.  

Being 5'9" and 55kg, she's slightly underweight, which is not surprising. She has a slight tan, enough to give her skin a lovely glow. However, the spots on her forehead don't quite complete the image. She manages to conceal it well with makeup, so many people don't notice them. The first time she went training, the gleaming metal arrows attracted her attention immediately; she adores shiny objects, like a magpie. As she released it she let the arrow blade slide straight across her forearm, causing a thin cut from her elbow down to her wrist. Unexpected from the ones around her, but entirely expected from her family, she burst into laughter uncontrollably as the blood dripped steadily down. Funnily enough, the glistening, red arrow had landed straight in the bullseye, but she was too distracted to notice as Augustus her father had wrapped a bandage around it. Just a bandage wasn't enough as it was taken off early and got infected, scarring her with a gristly gash. She has never touched an arrow again.

Despite her laughter problem, Hissy is actually a good friend to be around because she's like a little puppy, loyal and playful, as well as stubborn. She sticks up for her family and friends so fiercely, she would actually kill to protect them ; she's perfectly capable of doing so with spears, swords and the like.  She is oblivious to the fact her father only likes her because of her weapon skills and the way she laughs when she sees blood and it encourages her to carry on. She just thinks her dad really likes her and doesn't understand that he just wants her and her siblings as a trophy.

Hissy loves to play games, especially hide and seek because of the Labyrinth Games (An underground maze where all her family from the age of 10 to 18 participate to hide and scavenge and try to get points) her family hold secretly and illegally. She's only played once when she was 10 and she did alright for her age. She also loves riddles and is full of them, to the point where it can get annoying. Every day she will ask her sisters one, usually Wallflower because she is the youngest. Her favourite sister is Temerity because she's wild and free willed, however she doesn't look up to her because she knows that originality is a good thing. She is full of energy and can never stop moving around and her mother gets really annoyed at her for wriggling and never staying in her seat.

As one to stick to her opinion, she is naturally confident and ferocious. She will hardly ever change her mind and when she does, she still carries great regret in giving in. Hissy believes that if she stands down, it shows weakness. Her Dad always taught her this so she is fiercely stubborn and only admits she's wrong when she can see she's wrong. Being smart (despite her ditzy look) made her not often wrong. She can be quite annoying when she is usually right and so adamant about it. 


As a young child, no older than 7, Hysteria had many imaginary friends. Her best friends were not real people, but her imaginary friends again. Hissy did have a few friends that we real as school, but they were secondary to her imaginary ones. She never gave her friends names either, they were just friends. On day her father found her talking to them and got very mad. It was apparently because this could ruin her chances in the games, however young she was. He argued that this 'bad behaviour' would lead to her being insane. To this, she just laughed. Every time her father saw her talking to no-one he'd send her outside for 30 minutes as a punishment. She didn't mind the cold anyway, but it taught her to not talk to them again. Her father was pleased that she had stopped this and they have never talked about it again. This is pushed under the carpet.

Maybe not so innocent as she grew older,  between the ages of 8 and 9 her laughter at inappropriate moments turned into sadism. The sight of blood made her happy, most especially if she caused it. Hysteria began to be a bully, even if she wasn't the typical big fat slob with no friends that punches you till you can't breathe. Nails, teeth and other sharp things were her favourite weapons to draw blood with and smart enough to avoid the teacher's eyes. Only two people ever ratted on her and by the reaction of her teacher, they didn't care and said 'violence and suffering builds character, it's good for the games' as most children at her school were aiming to be careers. One day when she came back to school, Temerity found out and because she was a pacifist at that age, she flipped out. Hysteria began to feel really bad about it and said she would reserve it for other bad people and not for normal people. Temerity can usually persuade Hysteria to do things and listed the many reasons it was wrong and then Hysteria came round and agreed and she began helping out kids who were bullied instead.


School was great for Hysteria. Especially gym class. She loves gym class, the athletics, the gymnastics, all the sports. Yes, she might want to show off a bit but she just finds it easy to do, like 

Codeword;; Odair
Other;; She has Involuntary Emotional Expression Disorder (IEED) but it is undiagnosed and just a little bit insane, but her dad tries his best to stop that otherwise it might stop her from winning the games. (If the curse is ever broken)
