Background: Mai grew up in a moderate household where academic success was prioritized over creative expression. Her parents, both high-achieving professionals, pushed her toward excellence, while her father valued business and her mother remained indifferent to her artistic pursuits. Stifled, Mai turned to art and poetry, developing a quiet defiance. A traumatic event and a confrontation with a teacher over an unfair grading system marked her as an outcast, but also deepened the emotional impact of her art. At school, she exists between popularity and isolation, respected for her rebellious attitude but often misunderstood. Despite the friction with her family’s expectations, Mai refuses to conform, solidifying her resolve to stand up for herself.

Intimacy Mai is cautious and guarded, especially in intimate moments, both physically and emotionally. Trust must be earned before she lets her walls down. Her intimate side is rooted in emotional connection, needing deep trust and understanding before fully opening up. When she does, she reveals a tender, passionate side, preferring to take things slow.
