If I had to sum up Adeline in three words, I would choose: introvert, passionate, sweetheart. She tends to keep to herself, as social interaction for long periods of time make her tired, but Addie certainly isn't shy. Many are put off by her disregard for social and conversational formalities, but once past that point, Addie is fairly interesting to talk to. Given a topic she likes, Addie could probably talk for a while, in great detail, on the subject.

She is, admittedly, a bit straightforward, though. Addie avoids all superfluous conversation and doesn't talk unless given reason to. She is very much inside her head and has quite a creative mind. Addie is quite the observant type, and, when given a subject she is interested in, goes a little out of the way to learn.

Addie tends to be very self conscious, though, and is rarely inclined to share anything about herself. Once she feels she can trust, she slowly opens herself up and cautiously lets herself be known. Adeline is slow to trust, unfortunately, which makes a lot of her friendships fairly shallow. She hides most of who she is because the thought of closeness frightens her, but she would never admit to that. Adeline is a total sweetheart, overall, once you get past the direct, no nonsense exterior.
