Kyra Boyd

**Kyra Boyd** is just a teenage girl.

## Appearance & Personality

### Appearance

Kyra naturally has long, wavy blonde hair- but she thought that was boring, so now it's been self-cut into some flavor of wolf cut and dyed black. She stands at an unimpressive 5'1, often wearing platform boots or small wedges to make her slightly taller. She isn't particularly skinny but not chubby either- just an average teenage girl build. She has brown eyes. On an average day, she's usually sporting sweatpants and a baby tee with some beaten-up thrifted flannel she got for like a dollar. Her arms are covered in bracelets, and she's constantly wearing layers of necklaces. She's almost always seen wearing a beanie, so usually doesn't wear earrings on top of that.
### Personality

Kyra is unfortunately sophomore-girl-pilled, so she has big emotions about everything. Her friends, her relationships, and especially her parents' divorce- even if it happened all the way back in 7th grade. She has trouble coping like a normal person and her emotions control her more than she controls them. Because of this, Kyra is naturally understanding and emotionally intelligent, eager to try and fix others so she doesn't have to deal with herself. Her coping also manifests in her humor, being sarcastic and cynical about most things. ok
* kind of a Tortured Soul (writes shitty notes app poetry)

## Relations

* Family
* Other

* Kyra does not know how to interact with her dad. She has weird unresolved problems with him that she refuses to express because she thinks he won't get it. In her defense, he probably won't, but it wouldn't hurt to try. Kyra wishes she and her dad had ever been close and envies her siblings who were able to attain a good relationship with him. She wants him to care about her so bad.

* Kyra loves to pretend she's made peace with her mom. She works really hard to appear as if she doesn't care anymore, dismissing it every time her mom comes up in conversation. Ultimately, though, she's still deeply upset with her. Kyra's tried so hard to forget that she's forgotten why she's so angry- but, unfortunately, can't get rid of that feeling as easily. She wishes things were different, and that she'd get better and their family could go back to Portland and feel whole again.

* Kyra likes her brother a lot but has no idea how to talk to him in a normal way. She thinks he's kind of weird with his whole Dunkle thing, but still goes to his shows and pretends that he's really good because she would feel bad otherwise. She hopes that they get better at talking to each other like real people as they grow up.

* Kyra finds it easier to get along with Kian because she recognizes him trying- not that Neil doesn't, but Kian makes the whole conversation awkward trying to relate to her. And she loves him for it! It's a little bit excruciating when they talk sometimes, but she's glad to have him around.

* Kyra and Olive are close friends with We're Both Bisexual undertones, so naturally, they both have weird crushes on each other that they can't admit. Classic i'm in love with my best friend and im a sophomore in high school situation.

* Kyra likes Fifi a lot. She knows she can be a bit annoying sometimes, but the two have grown close and share a lot of the same interests. She considers her a close friend and feels lucky to have her.
