She very much is...but it struck me how she retreats when things get weird. She'll handwave a lot, but her need for being grounded, in control stunts her as much as it strengthens her. They are so very alike. But I think those similarities are often what brings her to a halt like this. She hides herself behind how she thinks it should be, even as she grasps at the wonders of the universe. She is so very adult in so many ways. She needs more play, lol!!

Whereas Alex has almost the opposite problems.

Then again, I could be completely missing the point with these characters. *Headdesk*

I don't see how anyone could hate this. Just...there is no way!
