There is no definite way to describe Tenten. If you were to ask someone with whom she is acquainted, they would likely tell you that she is a horrible tomboy. And if you chose to stop your search there, you would not be mistaken, because… in truth, she is. She’s coarse, rough-and-tumble, outspoken, and independent. Tenten does not wear make-up, nor would she so much as think about touching a dress or article of clothing that in any way flaunted any of her body’s “assets.” She is not overly emotional like most girls, in fact, she can count on one hand the number of times she’s cried in the past ten years. Everything about her screams “boyish;” from her practical, darkly-colored cargo pants, to her, often dirty or stained, white wife-beaters [the necklines of which never fall below her collarbone], to the messy, quickly tied buns on the top of her head that exist solely to keep her long hair from getting in her face, to the various knives and other weaponry she keeps on her person at all times and wields with perfect efficiency.

But, were you to ask someone a bit closer to her, they would tell you something more in depth. They might mention the fact that, despite being a tomboy, she is a vehement feminist with a strong resentment towards the male population and a firm belief in women’s equality. They might mention that she is usually cheerful and silly, energetic, and friendly, but with a massive temper and a fearful violent streak. One minute she can be immature, childish, and impulsive—the next she is wise, orderly, and collected. They would probably mention that she never wears any other hairstyle except the double-bun ensemble [and if they are very opinionated, they may say something about it making her look innocent or childish], never goes anywhere without her blades, and has an obsession with dragons.

If you possibly wanted to take it a step further, you could go to a best friend, or even Tenten herself. You would likely learn that Tenten absolutely detests using guns, even though she is excellent with them—Tenten’s aim is flawless. [Don’t be fooled by this, though, because Tenten has no qualms with killing anyone; she just doesn’t like doing it with guns.] You might notice that she always wears a set of dog-tags around her neck; but good luck trying to see what’s on them. You may, if you pay enough attention, find out that Tenten is in no way obsessed with hygiene as some females are—not to say she is filthy and disgusting, she just doesn’t see the point in showering when you’re still clean from yesterday.

All-in-all, Tenten’s pretty normal. For a tomboy, at least—the standard equation for the Bitchy Feminist Butch-type. [But if you ever, ever call her butch, she’ll cut you three ways from Sunday.] It’s fairly safe to say she’s a far cry from exotic, but if you said there was nothing unique about her you’d be very wrong.

What can I say? For the most part, normality is Tenten’s trade.

… Unless, of course, you don’t count the ‘member of the gang’ part as normal. That’s okay. Most don’t. Does Tenten care?

Of course not.

LOL I GIVE’D HER CHARACTER DEPTH.
