lexa and her candles. need i say more?
she loves pies and tarts. from standard pizza to cherry pie to french apple tart.
she has her own garden. or greenhouse. or maybe even a tree in her backyard.
she’s a dog AND cat lover, a golden retriever and a ragdoll maybe?
she loves outdoor activities—no, she’s OBSESSED with it. let’s say, twice (thrice, if last minute plans count) a year camping trips and monthly hikes?
she knows every herb and spice and grows them in her backyard. don’t ask why, she just does.
ask her any space-related question and she’ll never shut up.
if you were her roommate, expect midnight snacks; preferably coffee with vanilla ice cream.
she can probably play the piano or violin or harp. who knows, she can probably play all three.
gets up so early in the morning to jog before walking her dog, then stops by her favorite library for a quick read and continues her work out at the gym.
she knows how to style her hair. especially braids (she loves braids)
pet peeves: muddy floors, dirty dishes, unfinished paperwork, cramming and winter.
definitely went to boarding school growing up.
loves theme parks and water parks- any parks, really, but never ever bring her to a ferris wheel.
she’s definitely an activist slash environmentalist slash humanitarian but she doesn’t look like one.
obviously a perfectionist who gets all pouty when things go out of order at her apartment
has a puzzle collection displayed all over her apartment. may it be a 10,000 piece puzzle of the creation of adam or 3d puzzles of monumental architectures around the world (eiffel tower, statue of liberty- you know the gist)
she has this favorite sweater that she wears almost everyday, it’s a mustard color and ten times her size (which makes her look too tiny)
she once almost cracked her head open because she tripped over her own fort in a sleepover with anya (they both had rival forts bc lexa‘s just very competitive)
she doesn’t tell anyone but she loves doing her groceries mainly because she gets to chat with the elders who also go there
she can cook. actually, she’s a great cook. but baking isn’t her thing (it’s her “worst enemy”)
although baking isn’t her thing, she does make good banana bread.
new years is her favorite holiday because that means she gets to buy a new journal to plan her year ahead. (she’s organized like that...)
her night routine takes 45 minutes (she takes her time)
she hates comic books and she thinks star wars is overrated.
she took a pottermore test and her hogwarts house is ravenclaw. she’d love to be a hufflepuff though.
she knows how to doll herself up. she feels more comfortable wearing long gowns though, and suits are nice too, i guess.
she loves her watches and jewelries, no doubt. she never leaves without a watch on her wrist because it’s a habit to check time every now and then. (just to make sure she’s punctual)
although she loves both champagne and wine, she still prefers champagne.
she knows how to surf, but she’ll deny it. she thinks she’s rusty with it.
she loves her socks. and she likes them extra fuzzy, especially during winter.
she talks to herself in the mirror sometimes, a quick pep talk to motivate herself before doing something important or big for the day.
she thinks cinemas and bathrooms are the dirtiest places on earth.
as an only child (and the only grandchild, maternal and paternal) she was a spoiled baby. when 4 year old little lexa asked for a stuffed bunny, she promised to never ask for anything again. don’t worry, she still has sunnybear.
she doesn’t like hospitals because 1) the white walls are kinda creepy and 2) after the incident with the fort, she had to get stitches just behind her left ear.
she’s an almond milk kind of gal (she’s lextra like that)
she strongly believes that pineapples on pizza is an abomination
mocha flavored cake is her favorite cake.
this is going to be controversial but lexa is a cereal first person
homemade chocolate chip m&m cookies are her favorite growing up. it’s a family recipe that she plans to perfect.
her comfort footwear are fleece bed slippers. if she could wear them all-day everyday, she would.
she has a habit of tracing the scar behind her left ear whenever she gets nervous or flustered.
her guilty pleasure are dad jokes...
she honestly doesn’t believe she has a sweet tooth, mostly because anya would just teasingly point out her love for sweet pies (i mean, who doesn’t love pies?)... but she does though.
she can fluently speak atleast 5 languages (english, not included). she thinks russian is hard but she’s getting there.
she can recite a few of edgar allan poe’s poems. (she’s quite a fan)
she likes having private conversations with panda (her ragdoll cat) because she understands her the most and prefers playtimes with seuss (her golden retriever) because: work out.
her next-door neighbors, an old married couple in their late 70s, would occasionally invite her over for lunch or dinner, missing their estranged daughter. lexa doesn’t hesitate to come over anytime. plus, she really likes mrs. ducett’s mashed potatoes and mr. ducett’s vinyls.
her childhood dog, ambrose, went missing one day and was unfortunately never found (she cried for a week). she still has his medallion.
the last time she went to summer camp was also the first time she met her first girlfriend, costia. they broke up two years later.
the day she came out to her parents, they already knew. (and her dad won the bet, apparently, much to her chagrin)
she prefers the golden oreos over the regular ones... please don’t hate her.
chess is her favourite brain game. she was taught by her paternal granddad (who she—6 year old her—believed was the ‘expert’ at chess)
her life motto is “time is more precious than any diamond”
weirdly enough, she likes (loves) skinny tight jeans, quote “it makes my thighs look better”
she has a moon and four stars tattoo over her scar behind her left ear, the four stars representing her grandparents. she’s sentimental like that.
she loves coffee but wouldn’t mind tea time and biscuits.
her childhood bedroom is (still) painted pink, believe it or not. she had an all-pink phase... not that she’s embarrassed, just not proud of it.
she thought about growing tomatoes in her little (hardly. it’s huge, ask anya) garden.
she once saved a turtle’s eggs from being stepped on by sitting down beside that spot and building a sand candle as she ‘guarded’ them.
ok, she does actually have a tree and said tree has a little bird house for all the birds that stop by (and even stay, aw)
her glass case just contains: her finished 3d puzzles, trophies and awards from previous competitions when she was younger, and snow globes.
that said, she has snow globes scattered around her house.
have i told you how much of a competitive little shit she is? yeah, she once hid inside a trash can just so anya could never find her. dw, she got out an hour later (after anya called it a win for her, again)
according to our lexa bean, “waffles are heavenly. waffles are versatile. waffles are simply unmatched.” yes, she did actually say that out loud...
she’s a volunteer at dog and cat shelters. is that even a question?
the first gift she received on her 18th birthday was a grayish blue fleece blanket from her maternal grandmother. it’s her favourite blanket.
wednesday lunches are spent with anya, thursdays are reserved for panda and seuss after she’s finished with all her work, and friday nights are dinner at mom and dad’s. though, saturday dinners are occasionally spent at mrs. and mr. ducett’s.
personally, ear piercings scare her. and navel piercings. and nose piercings. basically, any body piercing that aren’t earlobes.
getting piercings scare her but getting tattoos don’t. in fact, she has a total of 5 tattoos. (moon & stars behind her left ear, minimalistic galaxy back tattoo, simple tribal arm tattoo, sparrow hip tattoo, waves tattoo just below her left underboob)
her favorite sea creature is the squid. and she doesn’t eat them either.
she’s very curious and quite the risk-taker for a perfectionist who likes order. oh, and she likes surprises too.
she wears glasses and once had braces and retainers, she wasn’t the stereotypical “nerd” though. she was a tough cookie.
fruits are her go-to snacks. especially mangoes in a cup. she just loves them.
she still has a really healthy lifestyle, despite her love for deep fried snacks, sweets and pizza. (it scares anya sometimes)
she knows how to play poker. how, you ask? well, whenever her granddad would have friends over for drinks (and poker), she would sneak in and watch from her hiding spot where she *thinks* she’s hidden.
remember sunnybear, the stuffed bunny that she asked for? she once performed a ‘surgery’ on her when she had wanted to become a doctor.
when she has accomplished something or is just simply happy, she would treat her friends or parents anything. anya would always say “lexa has her moments”
her first heartbreak wasn’t when she and costia broke up, it was when they found out that her paternal granddad had lung cancer.
her first shot of tequila was when she was 21 and she hated it. still does but, she can handle it... kinda
she sucks at truth or dares or 2 truths and 1 lie or never have i ever. it still amazes anya.
she has crazy good aim. maybe because her mom taught her archery when she was 10.
when she was 12, she first ran away from home and stayed with her uncle (her mom’s closest cousin) and his wife for a day after finding out that her dad had to leave and be away for 6 months.
i have mentioned her fondness over elders and old married couples but have i told you that she absolutely ADORES kids? she’d like to have 2 in the future.
lastly, lexa ‘hates’ cliches but then again, she still cries over serendipity and she does meet the love of her life in her favorite library after ‘blonde hair and pretty blue eyes’ (her own words) asked her so nicely if she could sit with her. (oh, she was a gay puddle)
—— hi! so you have reached the end of this thread (sadly). so, here’s teenage lexa just casually strolling around the neighborhood. i hope this made your day! ♡
