Physical Description
-
A tiny young thing, she still always wearing a smile on her face and clips in her hair. She tends to sway from side to side whenever she's idle, and skips as often as she walks.

Clothing Preferences
-
She dresses far more childishly than she 'should' for her age. She wears her hair in clips or ties, often those marketed for children with colored plastic and charms. Her dresses are always bright and loud, and sometimes she wears vests and slacks that are just as interesting. It's a cross between dressing like a very old woman and a young child. None of her outfits ever seem to match properly; she cares more for colour than style.

Profile
Minor character, Symphony’s only college friend! She’s often scolded for being too childish, but her youthful joy is much of what keeps her going despite the ruthlessness of her life.
Her main joys in life are children's media and Tumblr (particularly fandoms for children's media). She is Ms. Frizzle kin (from The Magic School Bus).
Backstory
Zyariana's family was super hecking abusive and bad. She ends up talking to her similarly aged cousin about it, who believes her and talks to her family about it. The cousin's family offers to house her during college, and Zyariana's parents allow it. Zyariana moves in with the family, who she does not know very well (excluding her cousin). It is an improvement by leaps and bounds, but the family finds it hard to deal with her eccentricities and mental illness, and she is often an anxious mess over guilt and shame, worried that they might get sick of her and send her back to her family. Her family also often contacts her, using guilt over preferring strangers to her own parents to ask for things.
Ongoing Story
College is great though! Not only is it a fresh start, but she's excited to make friends, learn new things, and explore her new town! She meets Symphony early on and, through her overbearing sort of way, befriends her. They end up confiding in each other (largely due to Zyariana not hiding her own upbringing), and develop a strong bond. They support each other through their struggles and work their way through college life.
