This year, I was a part of the ~SecretSnowflakes holiday gift exchange! I was supposed to draw for *chieri, who wanted a girl in colorful fashion clothes. I was really indecisive about what fashionable clothes to use, but I eventually settled on this design. I hope chieri likes this!

~------------------~

Cyan, Rien's childhood friend and modern-day confidante. She's often seen ooh-ing and ah-ing over display windows in the fashion district, or trying on jewellery, though she actually doesn't physically like the feeling of wearing them. She's snarky, oftentimes downright pessimistic about everything -- which is probably why the time she spends in the very fashionable part of town doesn't actually correlate to the amount of clothing in her closet. She's a constant flaw-finder, and nothing is ever perfect enough for her, or from her.

Possessing no incredible powers, she is usually more useful to Rien's team as the brain behind tactics and clue-finding and -assembling.

She's been on countless dates with countless people (yes, women included), which is actually how Rien met Tangerine to begin with. A double date resulted in a mess of a cafe, and the surrounding five city-block radius. The day ended with Cyan saying, "Well, there goes another date. How was *I* supposed to know she was a domineering man-hater jewel thief? She had such good taste in lipstick, too."

Then again, Rien was doubly unimpressed by her date, so it wasn't much of a loss for either of them. Men are intimidated so easily, it seems.
