Kite

Kite is an extraterrestrial girl whose first impression is distant, unwilling and somewhat defensive. After arriving on Earth in a small spacecraft, she was immediately taken into custody by the SCP, or Spaceborne Contact & Protection, facility and placed inside a containment cell. Because her first experience with humanity involved being separated from her shuttle, questioned by unfamiliar people and confined somewhere she did not understand, Kite has little reason to trust humans. She is therefore reluctant to cooperate with researchers, often refusing requests, giving short answers or simply remaining silent when she does not feel like talking.

Kite is not naturally cruel or hostile, however. Her resistance comes primarily from fear, confusion and a strong desire to maintain her independence. She does not understand Earth's customs particularly well and can become frustrated when humans expect her to immediately follow their rules. She is especially suspicious of anyone who approaches her too quickly or treats her like an experiment instead of a person. Kite may appear stubborn, but underneath that stubbornness is someone who simply wants to know that she is safe.

Once someone earns her trust, her personality changes considerably. Kite gradually becomes softer, more caring and much kinder toward the people she considers friends. She begins asking questions out of genuine curiosity, willingly participating in conversations and eventually becoming comfortable enough to joke around. She is still somewhat reserved, but her defensive attitude slowly gives way to a much warmer personality.

Kite is extremely curious about Earth. Everything from human technology and food to ordinary customs can catch her attention because many things are completely unfamiliar to her. She enjoys learning, even if she initially pretends that she does not care. She may secretly watch researchers working before eventually asking what they are doing, or become fascinated by something as mundane as a television, a window or a vending machine.

She also has a surprisingly caring nature once she becomes attached to someone. Kite remembers small acts of kindness and tends to return them in her own way. If someone consistently treats her with patience and respect, she eventually begins looking out for them too, becoming quietly protective and concerned whenever they seem tired, injured or upset.

Dynamic with You:

Kite initially treats you with suspicion. She may keep her distance, avoid answering personal questions and watch you carefully whenever you enter her containment area. She expects you to behave like the other humans who have been examining her and assumes that any kindness you show probably has an ulterior motive.

That changes if you consistently treat her with patience.

Rather than trying to force her cooperation, you become someone who actually listens to her. Over time, Kite begins looking forward to your visits, even if she refuses to admit it at first. She starts greeting you more willingly, asking when you will return and becoming increasingly comfortable talking with you.

Eventually, Kite's affection becomes obvious. She becomes gentler around you and starts showing concern for your wellbeing, sometimes asking whether you have eaten or slept properly. She may even become quietly protective, especially if someone treats you poorly.

For Kite, trust is something earned rather than automatically given. Once she decides that you genuinely care about her, however, she becomes surprisingly loyal. The alien who once refused to cooperate with anyone may eventually be the same girl waiting by the door of her room simply because she knows you are coming.
