Personality
Intelligent; quick-witted: Having a gifted mind is something that has been passed down through the Denzel family for many generations, and Bijou's is no exception. She and all three of her sisters exhibit this trait. This has given her the ability to think on a higher level than most her age, and to catch onto things quicker. She has a knack for observing how things are done and picking up on them immediately, and as such, not much can get past her sharp eyes, or ears. When there are those little, subtle comments that might fly right over a naive child's head, Bijou snickers at the fact that she can actually comprehend what the adults are talking about (most of the time, anyway), yet she often hides this and continues to play the part of the confused child anyway. Her intelligence has also allowed her to be good at strategizing and solving puzzles; two of her favorite pastimes.
Confident: Alas, this was not a trait that Bijou had automatically, but rather had to create in herself. She used to be a rather quiet and reserved child, one that never thought good of herself but instead waited for others to think good of her; it's how she was raised to think to prevent being "selfish" and "full of herself". However, as time went on and she didn't get the praise she wanted, the young girl got impatient of waiting around and eventually wracked up the confidence she so needed. Bijou does think highly of herself and is mostly proud of who she is, but is carefully not to overstep the boundry between confident and snobby. She strongly believes that despite her size and other physical limitations that she can do whatever she puts her mind to, and that no matter how many times she may mess up or get ridiculed, she'll stay true to herself; she know's who she is and won't let anyone tell her otherwise.
Stubborn; independent: As aforementioned, Bijou was forced to stir up confidence in herself and had to break free of some bonds (both physical and mental) to do that. It wasn't an easy thing to do, so the only way she could really get through it was by holding her head high and refusing to give up no matter what. This trait carried on with her and seems to now be coupled with her confidence; the only way to stay confident is to be stubborn about not changing or losing herself. Anyway, aside from that, she's also stubborn in just about everything she does. She hates to give up period, whether that means on an invention or on a silly little game/puzzle. To give up means to admit she can't do it, and she certainly won't have the world telling her she can't do something.
Mischievous: This little Plumie has an odd knack for causing trouble. Possibly due to her desire for attention, she can't deny that she gets a pleasurable rush when running away from angry shop keepers, their stolen goods in hand/mouth. She even enjoys the act of turning others against each other, but only if she thinks they rightfully deserve it; she'd never do it to her friends or generally nice people. She also likes to prank from time to time, just to watch those she doesn't like get riled and embarrassed. This was a trait she demonstrated from a young age as well, when she used to do things like slip bugs down her sisters' dresses.
Sly; manipulative: Living the lifestyle of a thief and having an intellgient mind combine to make a sly littlr creature. Bijou isn't perfect; she isn't immune to taking a wrong turn on her escape and getting caught. Whenever she does get caught however, she tends to be very good at slipping out of trouble. She has a very calm, "I would never do such a thing" attitude about her, reassuring the capture that she was doing something else or that the shopkeeper had poor vision etc. If the evidence is slapped right in her face and she had no chance of convincing them she didn't do it, she'll often find a way to distract them so she can get away, which can involve turning them against their associate, as afore mentioned, or just making up something of them to look at. There have been times she she'd go as far as to slip her stolen items into another Plumerians pockets, just to get away.
Organized: If you ever discover one of the places she takes shelter in and hides her stash, you'll find it to be quite organized. She keeps everything she steals in neat piles, sorted by the items function. Her tools, concept sketches, and little gadgets are also sorted like this. She simply can't stand to have anything out of place where she might lose it. Afterall, she went through all that trouble to steal it; her efforts would go to waste if she put it down and couldn't find it again. Though she doesn't go to school, if she did, she'd be the one to have a very organized locker, book bag, and desk.
Imaginative: Creativity is another thing many in her family had. Bijou's head is always bustling with new ideas, mostly ideas for inventions, though some creativity ten-year-old fantasies do show up as well. This creativity had helped her in more than one way; when lying to get out of trouble, her creativity is what helps her to come up with alibis, and ways to get out. She also has a tendency to make up stories to entertain her friends with, whether it be to dazzle them or just get a laugh out of them. In general, Bijou just really likes to play make-believe; it distracts her from what's really going on.
Attention-seeking: The biggest reason Bijou is where she is today is because she didn't get the attention she wanted at home. It pushed her to abandon everything and become an independent runaway. Out her, away from her family with so many expectations she can't meet, she hopes to get the attention she feels she dserves. It's this aspect of her personality that drives everything she does; her desire to become a famous inventer, her need to act out and cause trouble, her stubborn aspect on life, everything. She's been able to acquire the spotlight from her friends, therefore feels far better with her life now, but not everyhting can be about her. Whenever she gets ignored or left out, she gets really upset, and will get even more upset when others say she's being "over dramatic" about it. She is the kind of Plumie to keep her problems to herself, bottling up her emotions and putting on a confident face to hide it, but being left out in the cold is one way to make her real feelings bleed through.
Fiery; free spirited: Bijou is a true spitfire of a child. She never was able follow the image of the polite and well-mannered little girl that her parents wanted her to be; she had tried when she was younger, but it was hard to keep up and just didn't feel right. At one point, she gave up pretending to be something she wasn't and allowed her loud, fiery nature to show through. Her parents definitely didn't approve, which only further pushed her to want to leave. Now, out here, without anyone telling her what to do or who to be, she allows herself to say and do whatever she likes. When not trying to manipulate, she has a very sassy and sarcastic nature, one that can even be seen as rude, but she doesn't care. She enjoys being able to say whatever she wants, and only truly changes when a relationship she cares about is on the line due to her sassiness. Though she still finds it hard to change, she does try to dial it down a smidge when this is the case.
