Personality
Goldie is confident, shameless, and self-indulgent to the maximum. She enjoys what she likes and loves what she enjoys. She's always had a very bright and sunny disposition but she also isn't afraid to stand up for herself. She tends to bully her friends into taking better care of themselves and tends to be the mom friend of any group she's in. Always willing to try something new, Goldie definitely has both an adventurous and a reckless streak.
sTYLE
Goldie has an unholy number of workout outfits in various colors but she tends to favor those in the trans flag color over almost anything else. She's a sucker for light blues and pinks! Otherwise she tends to wear a lot of floral patterns, she has a lot of summer dresses and crop tops. For shoes, she usually wears flats since she jokes that she's already tall enough by far. However, she's also someone who tends to kick off their shoes as soon as the opportunity presents itself, so beware.

Hobbies / skills
Kickboxing
Goldie picked up kickboxing as a child and never looked back. Though unable to compete as a teenager, she wiped the floor with pretty much anyone who challenged her. Her dads made her her own trophies that she still has to this day. She teaches kickboxing at her own gym.
Zumba
Even though Goldie has kickboxing as a fun form of exercise, she still holds great fondness in her heart for Zumba. Honestly, she might just like the idea of combining music and exercise but she does have a lot of fun doing it - especially when she convinces Silver to come.
Singing
Goldie has a voice that wouldn't be out of place in Italian operas and she isn't afraid to show it. Girl can BELT. Goldie is the first person to suggest karaoke and if you are in the same building as her when she showers, you best be prepared for a full performance.
Quilting
While not tending to be a particularly crafty person, Goldie picked up quilting so that she would be able to go to Silver's craft nights with him. She prefers hand quilting and tends to favor patchwork quilts, she uses up a lot of Silver's scrap fabric this way.
Baking
Goldie tends to stress bake a lot. She finds the rhythmic kneading motions soothing, so she ends up baking a lot of bread, usually. She doesn't tend to get too fancy with her baking, but she usually has some brownies or cookies somewhere in her home at all times.
Hiking
One of Goldie's missions in life is to visit as many national parks as humanly possible and walk around in nature. She loves the outdoors and is constantly trying to drag Silver out of the library to get more fresh air. She is fully willing to drive multiple hours for a park day trip.
Trivia
- Goldie teaches self-defense courses on Sunday and Monday nights. She makes Silver be her "assistant."
- Goldie has two dogs of indeterminate breed that she rescued. They're both huge and think they're lap dogs, which Goldie does nothing to discourage.
- Goldie occasionally fosters animals from the shelter, especially young puppies or kittens who need to be bottle fed or tube fed. Goldie can function on frankly unholy little sleep, honestly.
- Goldie started bleaching her hair as a kid and has kept it going since. Her and Silver have "spa days" where they redo their respective hairstyles.
- Goldie is latino on both sides of the family. Her dad's family is from Texas - the border moved over them rather than the other way around -and her pops is Afro-Latino. Goldie is bilingual and fluent in Spanish and English.

Mateo Castillo-Saceda
[ father ]
Goldie jokes that the reason she grew so tall and worked out so much is so that she can pick her dad up in the same crushing hugs that her pops does. Mateo isn't overly enthusiastic about this, but he does love his daughter immensely. While Goldie and Daniel tend to bond loudly and enthusiastically, Goldie and Mateo have a chiller and more easygoing bond.

Daniel Saceda
[ father ]
Goldie's pops is who she probably takes after most in looks - or at least in height! She has an inch over her pops but only an inch. She takes after him a lot in personality as well, both being big people persons with a delight in contact sports. Oh, and don't forget the gender identity. Goldie was lucky that her pops is also trans and guided her through childhood with excellent parenting.
Samuel Silva
[ best friend ]
Goldie and Silver and best friends first and people second. They met in middle school and became instant besties and are completely ride or die for one another. Goldie still calls Nat up to chat and update her on whatever Silver is doing. While they did date for a while, the duo ended up deciding that they were better friends than partners.
