Question #7: Does your character find it easy to trust other people? What's a surefire way to make your character lose or gain trust in someone?
Just act nice to her. Clara thrives on the good side of people, so being gentle and nice to her will go a long way. And the opposite is also true. No one is the master of anything, so being arrogant loses points with her.
QUESTION #8: If your character had social media(or has, assuming some form of it exists in the current year), what kind of things would they post? Food? Cute dog pictures? Inspirational quotes? Anything goes.
Clara has been trying to stop being low profile and is starting to succeed right now, she usually posts about interesting things she sees on social media, or things she does at home, with or without Sal.
QUESTION #9: How does your character handle stress/anxiety? What are their biggest forms of comfort?
Cuddling with her favorite cat person is one, but cleaning and cooking, especially childhood food has a therapeutic effect for Clara. Seeing the smiles in the people she cooks for, like when she has friends over at home, is a bonus.
