Nadi loves that Jaime doesn't try and comply to the 'old money stereotypes' and that he accepts her for her. Nadi is always around to help Jaime if he is stuck in a creative ditch and Jaime is there for her, a mutually beneficial and lovely friendship really.

Dani invited her along to parties she was going to and throwing and Nadi decided to return the favour by making her new friend some jewellery and clothing when the girl mentioned she wanted some. Then it was hugs all around and their friendship evolves quite happily.

In return, Honey will take her along to the conventions she is cosplaying in and Nadi spends all day wandering round in a trance with her notebook and pen at the ready, writing down inspirations. After an event like this, Nadi won't usually be seen for a couple of weeks, too busy trying to create all the ideas from her mind into physical designs.

Surprisingly, this didn't annoy the boy as much as it could have done others, their friendship mainly based on how he grounds her to reality most of the time and she stops him from being a complete social recluse.

I only joined them when I was four and they had no other children or anything, they'd found out the year before that they couldn't have kids and they just knew they were destined to be parents so luckily enough, they adopted me! When I was nine they adopted again, my lovely little sister Sasha was six at the time and is now all grown up at fourteen. She's definitely taken to this being rich thing better than me, straight off she asked to go to a boarding school in England since we now have the money to let her. I miss her terribly, and so do my parents, but at least she'll be home for christmas in a day or two.

                                                                HOBBIES X x ) x wow, what a vague question. Um, I guess it could be said that my hobbies are anything creative? I've always loved to draw and paint and I'd constantly have a coloured pencil tucked behind my hair since I saw someone in a movie do so. My grandmother helped me learn how to sew and so I started making little stuffed cushions which she has still kept, bless her, and from then I just kind of fell into making clothing and other artworks. I don't manage to paint as much nowadays but I love designing and creating clothes. I sell some online, not really for the money but just because I want to share my creations, if someone likes them then why shouldn't they be able to buy them?

                                                                PERSONALITY X x ) x eek, I hate being asked this. I'm generally quite happy? I don't let things get me down easily, I really don't like confrontation so it won't ever be an argument that's ruined my day. If I get stressed I generally just work it off by creating or even swimming, I do love swimming. I make opinions of people easily, these can be swayed but it's just so I know how to remember you, I'm much better at remembering how people are than what they look like or what their name is. I want to explore, I love having a good time, whether it's just being curled up and reading a book or out and partying at some club or house party or wherever all the teens seem to end up.

We worked well, though my parents never saw us as a duo, it was always my older brother as their wonderful self-teaching son who applies himself to every subject available. Then there's me, the tag-along, soft-spoken daughter who is always singing or humming to herself as she watched others play. They didn't like it, and kept putting me up for drama classes to try and get me to be more 'pro-active' though i soon told them that drama wasn't for me. I may be a tad quiet, but i most certainly am not a pushover. I could tell I wasn't making them happy, so I researched and found out about OCD, close enough to new york for me to escape their once graduating, and nearby my aunt's house. I had to go there, and I may have just saved my parents sanity by doing so.

                                                                HOBBIES X x ) x Really my only main thing is singing, I just love it so much. I used to take dance classes as well, I enjoyed ballet but when I told my mum I didn't want to do drama, she also took it that I don't like dancing and I hadn't the heart to say I enjoyed that. I can play piano and took the traditional guitar lessons when I first came here, for something to do. My brother learnt to play the banjo when he was young, so of course I learnt that too. I like to cook as well, when I've got a chance I love to make my house smell like freshly baked goods and it always keeps my aunt and he boyfriend sweet too. Plus, it's just really calm and relaxing and I can make the food any way I like.

                                                                PERSONALITY X x ) x I've been told I'm too shy repeatedly, but I don't really think of myself as shy. You know that movie, perks of being a wallflower? Well, I'm a wallflower. I observe others, I empathise with their situations, if someone asks me for help or guidance I will try and do the best I can with the knowledge I have. I think before I speak, there's no rushing headlong into anything for me. If I know the answer in class, it's doubtful I will tell the teacher so, unless I can see they are desperate for someone to answer. No point begrudging someone else of their chance to tell the answer when I can just wait it out and say it after they have tried.
