I play out the parts of my nonchalant roles
Even if I know that someday I'll fade away
Gone just like the wind, even fleeting memories are too much to ask
With the way things are now, it's all for the best
So I quietly mingle in and out of the scene
And so my life is filled with distant days
But if you should call, I'll come running
I don't mind it at all!
And so before long, I started to see myself for who I am
Who I am, who I am!
In another place and time
I could have lived out the simple life of a girl
Oh no! I've thought about it, but it does me no good!
If I grow a bit used to this world as I observe it
It'd be too strange, I don't think it'd work out well
Just process it calmly like before!
That's right (that's right), just process it calmly like before!
We always get along, I show you my smile
It's that kind of thing you see all the time
But I'm hiding the truth
My agenda can't be known, I'm really sorry
When you're holding my hand, you offer your warmth
That much I know, but as much as I try
I just cannot feel that warmth deep down inside
But now, have I fallen under the spell of humanity?
System status check! I cannot falter in my task!
But what is this I feel inside...?
I sense the beauty of a blue sky when I shouldn't
It lightens my mood somehow
Oh, why should my feelings be so technical too?
I know that blue is just a colour, but I like it
No reason - I just do!
Warning! Sound off the alarm!
Delete these feelings right away!
But why (but why), please tell me why these feelings remain...?
In another place and time

(was going to be a list of char traits, but it kinda turned into a full description. Well w/e, works for me! I might go back in and fix it up a bit later, though.)
Originally, Foxglove was a ditzy, carefree airhead. She went through lovers quickly, most of them not lasting more than a week or so (though there were exceptions). In general, she breezed through life without really caring about anything, avoiding anything requiring too much thought. (Not to say that she didn't care about anyone.. she didn't just use people. She was just generally more interested in brief flings than more longterm relationships. And also was a bit flaky in general, lol.) She tended to gravitate towards clothes with wings on them, for whatever reason.
She went on like this for years before she met Snapdragon. They had been dating for a few weeks when Snapdragon hit her with an armour-piercing question - "You're not free, Foxglove. You wear those wings, but they don't mean anything, do they? Don't you want to be free?" [note: I might tweak this a bit later.. that's what he originally said to her but idk I might change it up a bit, idk if I like it any more. but the general gist of it is that he said something essentially meaning "do you actually enjoy living your life like this"]. Foxglove's life came screeching to a halt as she thought about his words over and over. She never saw Snapdragon after that (they never formally broke up with each other.. it was just one of those unspoken things), but his words made a big impact on her. Was she happy with things this way? Was she really free? Or was she just deluding herself?
After a while of thinking it over, properly thinking about something for the first time in her life, she decided that maybe he was right. (Doesn't mean that she necessarily ever forgave Snap for what he said. You can admit that someone's right about something without liking them for it, haha. I don't think she'd ever want to see him again.) She also decided on something.. she had always loved and admired wings, and secretly wished that she could fly.. so why wasn't she doing anything about it? Surely there must be some way she could get wings of her own, right? Previously she had written it off as an unattainable dream, nothing to waste time over, but now she decided she was going to do all she could do make her dream come true. (Maybe there was also a part of her that was a bit defiant, like "I'll show Snapdragon I'm not just a brainless airhead".)
This led Foxglove to begin working for a mysterious agency. They promised her that if she worked hard and did what they told her to, eventually she would be rewarded with the wings she wanted so badly. Foxglove truly has no idea what the agency's purpose is, what they want from her, or really, what she's doing for them half of the time, but she tries her best to work hard anyway. What she does know is that her work is "classified" and she's not supposed to talk about it to "outsiders", i.e. anyone outside of the agency. She also knows that the higher-ups appear to dislike agency workers getting into serious relationships with "outsiders" in general. That didn't stop her from falling for Starrla, though. She's nervous about her employers finding out, but also she thinks Starrla is far more important. Anyway, it's just a job, right? It's not like anything really serious would happen were they to find out, after all...
Foxglove is sweet and generally well-meaning, but fairly naive. She's trying very hard to be a 'new' person, someone that's different from the "brainless beauty" she was for most of her life, but obviously there's only so much she can do. ("How come she seems less ditzy now than pre-Snapdragon?" A lot of her previous ditziness was probably willful ignorance - she wasn't thinking too hard for a lot of the time. Plus, she is still kind of ditzy, it's just not immediately obvious.) Most of her work at the agency involves her running various errands, nothing too major; she's still a fairly new employee, after all. Though she was previously a bubbly, energetic social butterfly, Snapdragon's words left her unsure of herself, less confident. That coupled with the general loneliness of her job, and her unwillingness to fall back into her old lifestyle, leaves Foxglove longing for companionship but unsure what to do any more. (Well, until she met Starrla, I guess. XD)
Foxglove is somewhat blind to sarcasm. (She's learning, though.. or trying to, anyway :p) Also as previously mentioned, she's pretty naive and oblivious. Most people probably would've caught onto the fact that the agency she works for is more than a bit shady - Foxglove has no idea.
I dunno how to work these into her main description, so here's some notes on Foxglove's previous relationships.. at least, those that have been defined. (I've never specified how many people she dated before Starrla or anything like that, and honestly it's not really important. Just know that there were definitely others than just these four, but these are the only ones that are actually important in any way.
- Foxglove and Lilith dated for a bit in high school; specifically, they had a 'friends with benefits' kind of relationship. Nothing too serious.
- Sometime after she graduated high school (I never figured out an exact timeline or anything, but that sounds about right), she went out with Amaranthe. Foxglove saw it as a quick bit of fun that probably wouldn't last too long or really go anywhere; Amaranthe saw it as a longterm, serious relationship. Neither one realized this about the other; it was a case of bad communication - Foxglove wasn't intentionally leading Amaranthe on; she would never do something like that. When Foxglove inevitably moved on and broke up with Ama, Amaranthe reacted... poorly. Foxglove felt very bad about it all but pushed it out of her mind and tried to convince herself that it had all just been a misunderstanding and it wasn't anything she needed to think too hard about. She still feels bad about it now, but at this point figures there's not really anything she can do about it; she hasn't seen Amaranthe since they broke up, after all.
- She had a girlfriend a bit before Snapdragon who lasted several months - another ditzy airhead - but then they both decided to go their own ways. It was one of Foxglove's more 'serious' relationships, though. (She was someone else's character, thus why I'm being vague about her, lol. I mean, we never really roleplayed them or anything, so.. there's not much I could say *anyway*.. XD but you know what I mean.)
- She does have various ex-boyfriends, it's just that her plot-important exes (Lilith really isn't plot-important, but Foxglove/Lilith was too plausible a pairing for it to not have happened, haha) all happen to be girls, haha. Well, except for Snapdragon, but you know.

A small fire came up at the bottom of my heart
Passion has become like a blaze before I realized it
My butterfly flew around here and there
Its scales came off and fell on your hands
Letting go of each other's hands
We kissed passionately
Because our love is unforgivable
It fires us up
Hold me and make it so that our love isn't wrong
Please let me believe it, kiss me and change the world
Intoxicated with your love, I want to drown in enchanted time
Fence me in, want me more and more
Show me your obsession if you love me
If our love is 'weird'
Let's be weird as much as possible
If we've lost our minds
We'll naturally melt into one being
We have no time to be together
What we have is not the dream we hoped for
But our unquestioned reality
It's too late to turn back now that we know each other
I don't care about anything but you, my dearest
I feel nervous when dawn breaks
and I begin to cry
You said 'It's okay' to calm me down
But weren't you crying too?
Hold me and make it so that our love isn't wrong
Please let me believe it, kiss me and change the world
Intoxicated with your love, I want to drown in enchanted time
Attract me like a magnet
Even if we're separated, we'll find each other again
Don't let me go, I don't want to go back
I don't care about anything but you, my dearest
Ah...
