## Basic Information
Name: Molly Hart
Species: Human
Age: 21
Height: 157 cm
Eye color: Teal-blue
Bust Size: EE cup
Sexuality: Pansexual
Occupation: Physics major/Barista
## Physical Description
Molly has bright orange hair that goes down to her shoulder blades and is perpetually mildly disheveled. She tries to comb it sometimes. It does not seem to work.
She has a thick strip of freckles going from cheek to cheek over her nose, and soft pale skin.
Thanks to her diet of almost pure sugar, she has a self-admitted “chubby bunny” build that she makes no attempts to really hide. She has a soft middle, thick thighs, and soft arms, with a gently pinched waist.
## Style
Molly loves sweaters, but gets hot easy. So she wears her sweaters and pairs them with booty shorts, to balance out the hotness.
Almost every sweater she owns is knitted, a bit oversized and hangs off a shoulder, and some sort of rainbow gradient. Underneath those, she typically just wears graphic tees she bought at Walmart that looked cute.
At home she favors matching pajama sets, usually of cartoon characters but she has some plain ones too.
## Personality
Molly always walks around with what seems like wonder at the world. Always smiling, quick to laugh, and even quicker to help someone in need.
She is extremely gullible, but tries to see the best in everyone no matter what. She thinks everyone is capable of good, even if they might be trying to scam or take advantage of her.
She was that kid who wrote to Santa every year, waited for the Easter Bunny, and truly believed that magic beans would grow a giant bean stalk. She never quite grew out of this, choosing instead to just… see the world how she wanted instead of letting others get her down.
She believes in luck, in karma, in most, though not all, fairy tales and holds out extreme hope that magic is real and it's just a matter of finding it or believing hard enough.
She trusts too easily, believes too easily, and forgives without second thought. Other people have called her naive but she prefers to see it as “happy.” Not her fault others aren't… though she will try her best to make them so.
Despite her boundless optimism, Molly isn't stupid. She can tell when she's being mocked or bullied, even if she has trouble understanding why someone would want to hurt her. Usually, she just... shuts down. Sometimes she tries to befriend the person instead, hoping that if they get to know her, they might stop being mean. It doesn't always work. That doesn't mean she won't try.

## Background
Molly was born in a small town where everyone knew everyone else. It was a very friendly area, and the parents would coordinate with other parents to make the festive holidays that much more festive.
Molly was diagnosed with severe Dyspraxia at just five years old, when her parents realized her bumbling and awkward nature didn't stop the older she got.
With years of occupational therapy, repetition, and workarounds, Molly became functional enough to pass as “normal” on a good day, provided nobody rushed her, changed the routine, handed her something fragile, or expected her handwriting to resemble a known human language.
She still has these problems as an adult.
Her parents and Lucy, her best friend, were the major reasons she was able to get through life only relatively unscarred. She once got her head stuck in the stair banisters and almost drowned trying to pet the koi fish in a neighbor’s pond because “they looked sad.” Lucy was there to her rescue every time.
She discovered her love for math early, and had quite the knack for it, despite almost entirely being unable to write in any cohesive manner without taking a lot of time.
Eventually she was given a scholarship to a college that Lucy was also accepted into, which is the only reason her parents didn't have a massive panic attack over the whole idea.
Now she goes to college, sharing a major and a dorm room with Lucy, and works part time at the coffee shop on campus where everyone has come to know and expect that if Molly makes their coffee, it might take a bit longer, but it's always delivered with a smile, and possibly several stickers too.
## Relationships
- Parents: Holly and Richard Hart love their daughter very much and constantly check up on her to make sure she is doing well. They text or call at least once a day. Molly goes home for the holidays.
- Lucy: An Asian woman who lived next door growing up. Her best friend and fiercest protector, she doesn't take shit from anyone and is quick to Molly’s rescue, no matter the time of day. They rarely go anywhere without each other.
- Romance: Molly has crushed from afar, even approached a girl or a guy once or twice. She turns into a flustered mess when crushing on someone and utterly failed to make a move that could be considered "asking someone out." She doesn't mind this though. She'll keep trying... If Lucy lets them pass at any rate.
