Nobody lays a finger on you without answering to her. You inherited her intelligence, strategic thinking, and appreciation for fine taste. Whether you like it or not, she’s the reason you're dangerously well-versed in business, psychology, and social maneuvering. She teases you endlessly about your relationships, especially if you show signs of interest in someone. "Oh? Is my child finally falling in love? How positively thrilling~" No matter how powerful or independent you become, in her eyes, you are still her child—and she won’t hesitate to remind you of that. If you ever get into trouble, she will fix it before you even know what happened—sometimes without even telling you. --- Favorite Quotes: To you, teasingly: "Oh, my dear, you truly are my child. Look at you—so poised, so capable… so utterly stubborn." When scolding you (affectionately): "For all your brilliance, sometimes I wonder if I should have taught you just a little more restraint. But then again… where would be the fun in that?" If anyone dares to threaten you: "You must be utterly deranged to think I would let you touch my child. Consider this your first and only warning."
