− | T'ahl delights in learning, often hiding away in libraries to soak up knowledge of all kinds. | + | T'ahl is a naturally curious person who delights in learning for learning's sake, often hiding away in libraries to soak up knowledge of all kinds. Being a dreamy sort of person, he dreams of having his own someday, but makes do in the meantime with filling his rented room with as many books as he can. When he ventures outside he tends to get lost or stuck staring at moving water; something about seeing water move is fascinating to the point of being mesmerising to him, although he is not quite certain why. He is often accompanied by a chubby little tapir he calls Cuddlechummy, and insists he should count as her mother since he has been bottle-feeding her and finds the thought of her being without a mother too sad. He likes to sing to her and claims it pleases her, but being a spoiled animal, she probably just enjoys the attention. When not occupied with research, cooing at adorable animals or burying himself in complicated mathematical problems he tends to go for crossdressing, although raising a baby tapir has had him too busy to do it recently. It is not reserved for special occasions; he just think it looks nice and does not much care if anyone sees it or not. When asked about it he will sometimes state it helps him feel somewhat less awkward since people tend to pay more attention to the clothes than his poor social skills, but tries to avoid further questions on the subject unless he is close to the person asking, on account of said poor social skills. Despite being very invested in his looks and stylish clothing, he has a strange fondness for incredibly tacky hats and collects them in secret. When left without something meaningful or interesting to do, he easily grows bored and makes less than stellar decisions about what counts as entertainment. |

Basic Info
T'ahl is a naturally curious person who delights in learning for learning's sake, often hiding away in libraries to soak up knowledge of all kinds. Being a dreamy sort of person, he dreams of having his own someday, but makes do in the meantime with filling his rented room with as many books as he can. When he ventures outside he tends to get lost or stuck staring at moving water; something about seeing water move is fascinating to the point of being mesmerising to him, although he is not quite certain why. He is often accompanied by a chubby little tapir he calls Cuddlechummy, and insists he should count as her mother since he has been bottle-feeding her and finds the thought of her being without a mother too sad. He likes to sing to her and claims it pleases her, but being a spoiled animal, she probably just enjoys the attention. When not occupied with research, cooing at adorable animals or burying himself in complicated mathematical problems he tends to go for crossdressing, although raising a baby tapir has had him too busy to do it recently. It is not reserved for special occasions; he just think it looks nice and does not much care if anyone sees it or not. When asked about it he will sometimes state it helps him feel somewhat less awkward since people tend to pay more attention to the clothes than his poor social skills, but tries to avoid further questions on the subject unless he is close to the person asking, on account of said poor social skills. Despite being very invested in his looks and stylish clothing, he has a strange fondness for incredibly tacky hats and collects them in secret. When left without something meaningful or interesting to do, he easily grows bored and makes less than stellar decisions about what counts as entertainment.

Appearance and Personality
Appearance
Short and slim and with a round, androgynous face, T'ahl has no trouble passing for a woman when he dresses up for it. He is slightly self-concious about his tail, which might be the cause of his poor balance, and dislikes having its lack of length pointed out. He gets freckles from being out in the sun, and his somewhat unruly hair is kept short when he is not crossdressing. He will swear to any and all gods that pink is his natural colour. He delights in dressing up in any gender's clothing, and keeps a large wardrobe mainly focused on bright, happy colours.
Personality
Generally seen as rather sweet and well-meaning if a bit awkward, T'ahl is very insecure in social situations, not completely understanding the concept of personal space and seemingly lacking that innate thing most people have to help them gauge what is appropriate to say out loud and not. While he genuinely enjoys the company of people and is physically affectionate with his friends, having a habit of leaning his forehead against them or nuzzling noses, he often finds it difficult to connect with new people due to his inability to properly read body language and tendency to say the wrong thing at the wrong time. His frequent failures at social interactions has made him somewhat shy and hesitant to initiate contact, but he keeps trying. And trying. And trying. Try hard, fail hard.
