D: Say: I'd shake hands but... *nods at her hand*
E: Say: Yah... i'm not going to shake your dirty hand though
F: Say: Eww! Wash your hand and take a bath you dirty, flee infested Hey Seed! *scoff in disgust*

Random other traits:
Alex lives on a small farm, with chickens, cows, goats, and her horse, and also her cat and dog, and plenty of crops, she loves being a farm girl and doesn’t mind getting dirty (and is the one who does most of the work).
Does good at classes she likes (esp: science and PE), and bad at classes she doesn’t like, or finds boring (depends on teacher, and what is taught)
Alex is also part of 4H club
Sparing and a bit frugal, but generous. (gives gifts, but doesn’t buy expensive clothes and the like) (gets most clothes second hand or hand me downs, used bike, used skate&snow board) (Her Family has gone through financial hardships as well)
Has a high metabolism, is very active, eats a lot but stays skinny
Rarely eats red meat (usually only thanksgiving and Christmas), and when she does she makes sure it was humane (from her own farm, usually, she lets animals live long and only kills and eats them when they are close to dying). And any other meat she eats she tries to do it humanely and quickly. (But she is obsessed with killing mosquitoes, who she has sworn to be her mortal enemy ) She’ll get really mad at you if you kill something for fun, like kick your ass, beat you up angry…
Family:
Her father is a biology teacher at a university, and doesn’t get to be a father often during the school year, in the free time he has during the summer, he tries to make it up to her by playing with her and teaching her things about nature. Because of her fathers work, Alex is often home alone, and has main responsibility for the farm.
Her mother died when she was a little girl (toddler) for reasons her father won’t discuss.
Her father also has a hard time being with alex because she reminds him of her mom
Alex has an aunt in law that she despises, primarily because she wants her to be girlier and more lady like.
She’s given her girly dresses, which she’s ripped up, died and used for patches on her pants, or other wise made sure she rips up and dirties them.
She tries to teach Alex lady manners… which hasn’t worked very well either.
She’s tried to get her to… well, the rest you’ll see on a funny little side comic strip called Alex’s girlifieing adventures ^^ (along with maddy, a girly friend from school, and minor character)
Alex had an older brother, named Conner. He was 12 years older than her, he was very loving to her, and used to play with her a lot. “I’m lucky to have you as a little sister, because its like having a little sister and a little brother at the same time” she would always laugh at that. He was very outdoorsy and sporty like Alex is. Many of Alex’s clothes are hand me downs from her older brother. When Alex was 7 he went off to war, he disappeared and was never found, presumed dead. Alex secluded herself for a month, but finally got somewhat over it, because she knew he would have wanted her to stay in school and live on happily with out him. But, when she’s older, she thinks about finding out what happened to her brother, she would join the army but… she hates guns and violence… so that doesn’t work
Despite this Alex usually is a happy kid
Alex’s other relatives include her aunt and uncle, and her 4 cousins (2 girls 2 boys) in Tennessee, they live on a farm as well.
Her oldest cousin in a 16 year old punk tomboy, who alex likes, and looks up to, except that she can be very aggressive, violent, and stubborn at times.
The two boys are twin boys (not identical), they together are mischievous trouble makers, and alex is sometimes amused by them, sometimes annoyed, and sometimes she joins them in their pranks ^^
The youngest girl in a 6 year old who thinks she’s a princess, alex is highly annoyed with her girlyness, spoiled ness (does not work on the farm if she can avoid it), and tries to get her to be more like a tomboy.
