"the best friend i've ever had." -- she's not a woman of many words, but you best believe she'll ride or die for you and is protective of those who she loves. she cherishes all her relationships, even if it doesn't look like it. mars is honest with people she meets, and meets everything at face value. she doesn't try to hide who she is, because that's just who she is. mars is kind by nature and never means any harm. she's down to help and support others,  and is honest with the people around her. mars likes to keep to herself a lot, as it's less energy consuming. she's open to socializing, but doesn't really go out of her way to do so. she's well liked, though people don't really understand her.  

"i genuinely don't get her." -- though kind and honest, her sense of humour is one not many get. she's an underrated comedian, forreal. she's a devastatingly sarcastic little thing,  and it often flies over peoples' heads because she says it so seriously with a ghost of a smile. she likes her dry humor, though is sad when no one gets it. mars has a hard time showing any sort of emotion on her face, but it's not impossible. she still has certain (subtle) social cues that you can pick up on to know what she's feeling. the cues are hard to pick up on, so it's hard to tell what she's thinking, leaving her a mystery to others. mars is an madly introverted, and just results as her just not being all that interested in others. while she's not against socializing, she doesn't really put any extra effort to get to know people. she has a hard time making friends as a result. mars doesn't really believe in fitting into boxes, and would much rather be herself without having to worry about fitting a certain image. her image is her own, and she isn't afraid to own it. 

"she's emotes in game! sorta..." -- scarily competitive and can get condescending, especially while gaming. she doesn't try to be mean, but mars just doesn't really like to game with people who are bad (ie her brother lol). this also applies to real life situations, as it can be frustrating to deal with the incompetence. she takes the things that she's passionate about seriously. it can be baking, gaming, her work or even school. she picks up on certain activities quickly and works her hardest at being really good at it. she works so hard, she often loses track of time and end s up forgetting quite a few things.  
 
background.  mars was born in australia for her dad's work. he is a professor and was offered a job in sydney so she grew up there for a good ten years. however, they moved back to korea when her grandpa got really sick (he's okay now though! still kickin). they've stayed there since then just to keep an eye on their grandparents, and her dad still teaches in hoyang to stay close. she attended a local schools there where she met with kim taehyung. he was her bestfriend, and was the only one that shared her interest in games and anime. it all started with trading pokemon cards, when he randomly comes up to her wanting to trade for all the cool looking pokemon despite the trash stas. they stayed best friends until they turned 18, when she went to seoul national, and he went back to daegu. ever since then, her life has sort of lost it's pink hues. she went to school by herself, with not many friends. it didn't bother her, it just meant she could focus on gaming and herself. little did she know, a small part of her heart was festering with loneliness for the next three years, until kim taehyung reappears in her life to attend his last year at seoul national with her. now 21 and about to graduate, a little flyer found near her door, hiring at the trendy cafe, dkml. little did she know that this seasonal job would push her out of her comfort zone more than she'd ever realize, filling the loneliness she's ignored for so long, finally making friends and taking interest in others. 
 
lifestyle.  a literal hermit. does not find the need to go out because everything she has is at home. it's scary to her family that she can just stay inside without going crazy. only times she leaves her house is to work, or because taehyung or her family dragged her out. obviously her school schedule is different. she's stacked her classes to be m-th 9am-3pm just so she has a longer weekend of playng games.  
 
trivia.  
> she honestly could go be a pro gamer if she applied herself just a little more
> quite sad but her life revolves around gaming and anime pls
> undiagnosed, but she does have a mild case of social anxiety
> she has a side hustle! she writes and publishes comics/webtoons under the pen name maeul (mars+noeul)
> lowkey bitter abt being named mars lmao
> ppl are always shocked when they text her. she just uses so many kaomoji and punctuaton that they can't believe it's her
> uncloseted weeb bc she's unapologetically herself! 
> loves her simulated dating journeys. reallly loves mysmes and the ikemen series especially fjsfsjlls
> has too many switch games
> fave genre is jrpg and fps
> genuinely gets a bit sad when ppl don't get her humor
> boba addicted bih
> surprisingly healthy and fit. she thanks her short yoga sessions she does on herself when she finds she's sitting for too long
> really likes veggies for some odd reason? she likes the tastelessness of it???
> has a rly cute mint
pc set up

appearance. religiously has been blonde/strawberryblonde for a bit over a year. she just loves the way it looks on her. she has a tattoo behind her left ear of a crescent moon with a rabbit sleeping on it.
 
fashion.  it's not stylish, make her feel confident and is not comfortable, she doesn't want it. she likes to wear baggy pants, baggy sweaters and crop tops that don't make her itch. she's a huge fan of non flashy patterns on her clothes, and wears her sneakers on the daily. hardly ever will you find her in heels and skinny pants. the closest you'll get her in form fitting pants are her straight legs, or leggings. she owns white fila disruptors (despite the hate, they're comfortable) nike af1s, and airmax 97s, along with black, white and yellow converse. she only owns 2 pairs of sandals, birks, and white fila disruptor strap up sandals. she's not too big on skirts, but she does own a few denim skirts and tennis skirts. (literally all of bp's airport outfits.) pins

the interview !
 
the name's jadu - it's nice to meet you. she extends her hand to shake as she sits down, then inviting you to do the same. the chairs seem to come forward to greet you as well, putting themselves at the perfect spot to meet your bottom. (mars shakes her hand, and forces a smile that doesn't quite reach her eyes) hi, i'm mars kim, but you can call me noeul... it's nice to meet you. why... does i feel like the chairs are talking to me? maybe i shouldn't think so hard... agh no, not a good time to start getting hungry...
 
so we're going to be doing the interview in a tag team kind of way, thanks to the suggestion of my dumb brother (a slight eye roll is detected), and obviously i'll be starting it off! so why do you want to work here?  i just want to work here for the money. i kind of need it for my last year in college, and i figured that since i'm a nutrition major, i think it'd be a good fit for me. basically just need money and experience, but i also like the cafe. it's close to home so i won't have to go so far. it smells so good... would it be rude to ask for a sample? 
 
okay, sounds good. she jots a few things down on her clipboard. just out of your line of vision, her words are turning into doodles, dancing around on the page. alright, then i'll call in my brother for further questioning! she flashes a small, cordial smile as she gets up from her seat.  it was nice to meet you! (mars says monotonously, but she swears she means it) she was so pretty and nice
 
he enters, putting his hand up first in a still wave before reaching out for a shake. hi, i'm jamong, the better looking twi- something falls from a shelf behind him and hits him in the head. ow! you little- weirdly, he looks at the door his sister just exited from instead of at the shelf from which the object fell. that didn't look like it fell... it sort of tackled him? strange. oh well, i hope it's over soon. i'm hungry.
 
he rubs the back of his head as he sits down. alright, i'll just be getting right to it. what can you offer us as an employee? uh... (mars smiles nervously) i'm not really a people person so i was hoping to stay in the back to bake or make drinks. i'm also a nutrition major... so i could help put together a seasonal menu, or just make substitutions based on customer diets. i'm also just really good at baking... i do a lot of it in my free time. i'm really well suited to prepare the food, so please take that into consideration. i know it's no cafe, but i used to work at starbucks as a seasonal, so while i do have customer experience, i'm much more suited to make things for them. what game should i play when i get home?
 
mmm.....alright. sounds good. that's all for me, thanks for your time! he gets up from his chair, but before he can even reach the door, it bursts open. took you long enough, my boy, now get on out of here! a clean-cut, middle-aged man in a frilly apron takes the seat the younger boy had just occupied. hello, the name's hakmin. a pleasure to meet you!  ummm... did??? that door just?? open on it's own? i must be starving or something because... whew. (mars questioned internally but refused to let her confusion show) nice to meet you too, sir!
 
alright, if you can't tell, i can be quite impatient. so we're going to be discussing your availability. tell me what days and what hours you can work. to be honest, my schedule is really free. my parents aren't planning any vacations this year i don't think, so i can be full-time, part-time... opener, closer, whatever you need.  just don't kill me with overwork. (mars meant it as a joke, but her stoneface told otherwise, leaving hakmin laughing awkwardly, to which she picked up on.) sorry, i meant that as a joke. i have a hard time emoting properly..
 
alrighty then, we'll be taking all that into consideration. hang in there, kiddo, the interview's almost done! hakmin gives an abrupt two- salute as he gets up from his seat and opens the door to reveal his wife, wiping her damp hands on her skirt apron. oh, i was just about to check on you- there you are, beautiful! hakmin embraces the woman and kisses her on the cheek before leaving the room.  (mars couldn't help but smile a little) how sweet. i wonder if... (her thoughts ran towards taehyung, which shocked her. she subtly shook her head to straighten out her thoughts)
ah, hello! my name is bok, it's a pleasure to meet you. i'm here to talk to you about what position you would like to take! what were you thinking of doing? i'd love to bake! (her face was unexpressive as ever, but her eyes held a certain glow to which bok caught) i really would, especially since i'm not a very sociable person. i'm also really knowledgeable about baking and things, i do it a lot at home. i can also make drinks if it's needed! should i pick up some boba or bake some bread? or both?
 
okay then, that's it for now! thanks so much again for coming in, we'll get back to you as soon as we can.  (mars smiles, and this time the corners of her eyes crinkle. for some reason she felt... lighter than before?) goodbye! thank you so much for the opportunity! (she waves and opens the door to leave) for some reason, this cafe is weird? i can't put my finger on it... but it's different somehow... ah, well. let's go eat mars. 
time stamp !
 
final words. pls i hate myself sm for deleting the og FJLFSJ 
suggestions.  
> mars opens up more about herself, and is making an effort to make friends while working at dkml

teehee relinked mars' app to here! i didn't change the og review since mars is pretty much the same, but i did read through this whole new one and i like the little changes! i feel like i understand her more as a character now <3
- still love what dkml could possibly do for her
- also her pen name is maeul!! fate ?!!?!!
- a TURTLE named OOGWAY i freakin love it
- her being a homebody...mars really the thrivin-during-quarantine type
- i like seeing the little hints of emotion in mars...like how she gets sad when people don't understand her humor and how she really was genuine when she said bye to jadu in the interview even though her face is probably just (ー_ー )
- love the tight community she has...though it's small, they're loyal!
- is the dynamic between tae and mars that i depicted in the scenario still okay ???
- love that mars would be the one to ask out tae!!1!
- also is that kaomoji..........flipping me off.............................
