When has your character been in love? Had a broken heart? She loved one boy when she was about 13, but after her mother died she told him she needed a break. After that she just sort of forgot about him and they haven't spoken since
What is in your character's refrigerator right now? On her bedroom floor? On her nightstand? In her garbage can? She keeps her room clean, with a little concentrated mess on her nightstand; books, notebooks, old pictures and an obnoxious vintage alarm clock clutter the top. Her fridge is filled with junk food and microwave dinners, with the occasional Slim Fast in the door shelves (part of Max's failing and completely unnecessary diet plan)
Look at your character's feet. Describe what you see there. Does he wear dress shoes, gym shoes, or none at all? Is he in socks that are ratty and full of holes? Or is he wearing a pair of blue and gold slippers knitted by his grandmother? She's got pale, dainty feet with painted toenails. She's barefoot as much as possible, but when footwear is necessary, black flats or boots are her choice. Red pumps on nights when Max drags her to the club
When your character thinks of her childhood kitchen, what smell does she associate with it? Sauerkraut? Oatmeal cookies? Paint? Why is that smell so resonant for her? Whisky. After her mother died, her father's drinking spiraled out of control. Her childhood home always smelled like alcohol
Your character is doing intense spring cleaning. What is easy for her to throw out? What is difficult for her to part with? Why? She'll toss the ugly sweaters given to her as Christmas presents from distant relatives and the childish baubles her father sends her in an obligatory attempt to patch up their relationship.

A special on WW2 on the History channel is on TV for background noise
What is one strong memory that has stuck with your character from childhood? Why is it so powerful and lasting? Her first tattooa butterfly under a banner wither mother's name on it. She recalls the day vividly because she had a meltdown in the parlor while she told the artist the significance
Your character is getting ready for a night out. Where is she going? What does she wear? Who will she be with? Max has convinced her to come out to the club he bartends at, telling her for the hundredth time that "you need to get out of the house, pumpkin!" While she refuses to have a good time and does not stray from Max and the bar, she uses the opportunity to throw on her red heels and favorite pinup-style dress, her green hair curled. It's not that she's depressed or "anti-social", per say, people just never appeal to her. She sees no point in socializing.
