Her mother always remarked that she cried less often than her younger siblings. Her father recalled vehemently that when others kids would bully her in preschool, she always seemed convinced that it was just an accident. When her elementary school required community service, she completed above and beyond the necessary hours. The pattern was repeated in middle school, in high school, in summers when other kids were reclining by pools or escaping the heat in movie theaters. Steadfast and loyal, Bambi considers promises to be as weighty as contracts. When she says that she'll do something, she'll do it. It doesn't matter the commitment or the cost. Unforeseen inconveniences might irritate her into certainly entertaining the possibility of walking out, but unless there is a legal or moral dilemma, she'll wait until after completing the terms to walk away. That being said, because Bambi considers her word very important to protect, she is reluctant to take on more than she can handle. If it seems like doing a favor or completing a request will cause conflict in other areas of her life-- and as long as it doesn't pertain to children or people who need immediate help-- Bambi won't hesitate to decline. Those who first meet Bambi playing Alice Liddel or Wendy Darling at Disneyland sometimes get the wrong opinion of her personality. Once the wig and costume and copious amount of make up are on, she is no longer herself. She is an actress playing a role in order to entertain children and families that coming looking for a little magic. She can fake a smile, a laugh, and a light-hearted conversation with the best of them, but once it all comes off, so does the act. In reality, Bambi isn't particularly verbose. Her face isn't particularly expressive. A tight ration is kept on her words and a tighter lid on her emotions. If a one word answer will suffice, that's what you'll get. If a nod can convey her point, even better. Bambi has very high standards for herself, adheres to strict guidelines of behavior, and generally remains frustrated by her own inability to meet her own expectations. Perfectionism almost seems too soft a word as every word and action are meticulously graded within her mind from the amount of food she eats to the number of hours she works to the level of her performance. This desire to be good at what she pursues often backfires. The pressure becomes overwhelming, and she is known to walk away from anything that might increase the amount of stress she's dealing with. Absences were always her problem in school. If things became too much, she wouldn't go, or she'd leave mid-class. Tension at home meant that she stayed the night at someone else's home. Freedom, the ability to leave, the knowledge that not too many people depend on her with their lives or jobs or well-beings is something Bambi fiercely clings to and even more passionately fights. She loves being of service to people and helping them. She does not love when numerous amounts of people rely on her. [/style] |

It figured, her parents said later on, Bambi never liked inconveniencing anyone. ON THE TOPIC OF HER PARENTS Natalya was a foster kid, thrown about the system from home to home to home. One place three months. Another was five. Quite a few didn't even make three weeks. Arthur was the child of two upper class citizens who liked to bounce him from boarding schooling to boarding school. Eventually, Natalya grew tired. Eventually, so did Arthur. She ran away, and he ran home. It never pleased his parents that he fell for a kid living on the street. They grounded him, took away his things, threatened to cut him out of his inheritance. They pleaded and bargained and drank away the disappointment. Natalya pressed the same idea. She wasn't good for him. She was damaged goods. He had a great future ahead of him. Pre-med. Medical school. Six figure salary at a prestigious hospital. Arthur proposed. Natalya accepted. ON THE TOPIC OF HER CHILDHOOD She had parents who were perfect. Really. Bambi was born into a nice home. Two stories. Five bedrooms, one of which was converted into an office, though the pastel yellow and giraffes of the nursery stayed. They had a white picket fence and a golden retriever. Though, Arthur and Natalya didn't settle for 2.5 children. Four, they thought, sounded like a better number. Bambi never went to boarding schools, but she did go to private ones. Her quiet, studious behavior masked a general dislike of her surroundings, but she tried to limit the problems she caused. With a mother who baked cookies when she came home even when training bras were outgrown and with a father that came home in such high spirits, offering movies and dinners out and family game nights, Bambi could never bring herself to cause them worry. She didn't know that that worried them. Michael is fifteen and rebellious. Gabriel is nine and precocious. Louisa-- Lulu Bear-- sucks her thumb when asked to describe herself. ON THE TOPIC OF HER EX-FIANCE Bambi was engaged, and then she wasn't. It was a lukewarm romance with spiteful ending, as if it decided all the passion lost in potential would be made up in heartbreak. Bambi never liked to inconvenience anyone, and that idea inconvenienced her fiance. She was too quiet, too withdrawn, too distant from him. He wanted more. More more more. He had fallen in love with a flicker of unabashed emotion and became bitter when that flash was the only thing that kept him going. He cheated. She cried. And he asked why it was the only time in their relationship that he ever knew what she was feeling. ON THE TOPIC OF HER LIFE College was tossed to the wayside when her mother became ill. A father who put in over eighty hours a week at a hospital and a mother who spent just as much time, just in a hospital bed, could not be proper guardians to their three children at home, so college was tossed to the wayside. Bambi withdrew her enrollment and stumbled back home, ever dutiful. It was supposed to be temporary, they said. It was supposed to be until their mother got better. When Natalya died, temporary became permanent. When Arthur became too distressed to work consistent hours, permanent became uncertainty. They moved to a small home. It had a white picket fence, but only three rooms. Lulu bunked with Bambi. Gabriel bunked with Kurt. Their father slept with the memories of his wife and drank to find her image in the bottom of his glass. There were probably better jobs out there. Higher paying jobs that would make the steep decrease in home income easier to bear. Natalya traded life insurance for trusts. Bambi, for the time being, was the provider of income. Her father's paid leave took care of the mortgage and private school tuition; she funded everything else. There were probably better jobs out there, but being a character actor was an escape. Leaving her family was an option, but not a real one. Blood kept her chained to that smaller house with the three bedrooms and the off-white picket fence. [/style] |
