Editing Snowdrop (section)

==Relationships==
===[[Avery Kelly]]===
Snowdrop deeply admires and likes Avery,<ref>“How was Avery when you saw her?”<br><br>“Great. But she’s a real wimp when it counts.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/07/14 Excerpt] from [[Out on a Limb 3.1]]</ref> immediately taking to her as a friend when meeting for the first time.<ref>Mask- she tore it off, shook it violently, and shucked off the glamour she’d used. She donned the mask.<br><br>Hat. Same deal.<br><br>“That’s so lame,” the opossum girl said. “You look so uncool.”<br>[...]<br>“Odelia?”<br><br>“You have awful taste in names,” the girl said, walking backwards, expression getting worse and worse.<br>[...]<br>“I hope the wolf gets you like the other opossum said, lonely freak.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/07/07 Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.9]]</ref> Snowdrop had no problem being sacrificed to help her even looking forward to it,<ref>“Happy you’re not getting sacrificed?”<br>“Yes.”<br><br>“Cool,” Nicolette said. “I don’t suppose you’d stick around, help?”<br><br>“Can do, if it screws with her.”<br>[...]<br>“I’m going to get some things to clean up. Do you need anything?” she asked the Other.<br><br>“Nah. Pretty happy right now.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/07/11 Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.z]]</ref><ref>The person beside her let go of Avery’s hand. They didn’t move.<br><br>“You’re going to have me take your place at the end, guaranteed. Murderer. Idiot. And you want to look me in the eye?”<br>[...]<br>“I- I’m doing this to help people.”<br><br>“Right, and you aren’t doing it to help yourself any. No magical boons, no opening of doors. Sure, I believe you. ''Disgusting''. ''Loser.''<br>[...]<br>“Take longer to get your sentences out, murdering a-hole. Hesitate more. Let’s drag this out. We’ll postpone my horrible fate, okay?” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/07/07 Excerpt] from [[Stolen Away 2.9]]</ref> and saw it as a meaningful death.<ref name=":1" /> Months after her initial creation she retains an instinctual understanding of Avery.<ref>Avery subtly gave Snowdrop a firm two taps behind the neck where the boys couldn’t see her fingers move. Again, Snowdrop looked up at her, slight smile on her face.<br><br>Avery pressed her lips slightly together, knowing Snowdrop was paying the most attention to her.<br><br>“Avery?” Snowdrop asked. She adjusted her grip on stuff she was still holding. “Can I ask you about something we talked about before?”<br><br>“Yes, of course,” Avery said. She glanced back, “Excuse me.”<br>[...]<br>“Did I do that wrong?” Snowdrop asked, quiet, as Avery dropped down to a crouch by her, setting the bags of stuff on the floor.<br><br>“That was great. Thank you.”<br><br>“I don’t know how your head works or anything like that,” Snowdrop said, biting her lip for a second. “But I understand this. What’s happening?” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/11/24 Excerpt] from [[Cutting Class 6.9]]</ref>

Their initial relationship was due to Snowdrop being a sacrificial animal so by extension snowdrop is self-sacrificing when it comes to Avery and her own friends.<ref>“Ditch Avery, ride off into the sunset, steer clear of opossum males and trashy boys.”<br><br>“Gotta ''persist'' if you want that stuff, trashmouth.  Gotta live!”<br><br>“I know that!” she shouted.<br><br>''Stupid sacrificial animal''! he thought.  He didn’t say it.  Sacrificial animals got touchy about those sorts of things.<br><br>“So work harder at it, yeah!?” he told her.<br><br>“You don’t have to lecture me like I’m four months old!” the four month old opossum shouted.<br><br>“I was less than forty minutes old when I was figuring some of this out, so don’t give me excuses.”<br><br>She huffed, folding her arms. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/04/17 Excerpt] from [[One After Another 10.e]]</ref> She still has an appreciation for the importance of sacrifice.<ref>“I don’t believe in sacrifice,” Lucy said.  “Even for that.”<br><br>“I don’t either,” Snowdrop told her, peering between Lucy and Verona to look at the pages, before redirecting her attention to cabinets and things.  “Not that I have relevant experience.”<br><br>“I’m really sorry I was going to sacrifice you to the trail, Snow,” Avery said.  “We didn’t think you’d be like… aware.  You were just a dying baby.”<br><br>“It was uncool.  There wasn’t any greater purpose, you know?” Snow asked.<br><br>“Alright, with that reminder, I’m starting to think I hate the idea of sacrifice too,” Avery said, more to Lucy than Snowdrop.  Snowdrop fished in Avery’s bag and found a tennis ball, which she bit into experimentally. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/07/14 Excerpt] from [[False Moves 12.7]]</ref>
===[[Louise Bayer]]===
Occasionally Snowdrop will visit Louise, seemingly acting as someone Louise can exercise her maternal instincts on while also being reminded to look after her own health.<ref>““I’m there pretty often, y’know. But she’s awful. Tells me I’m not anything like family, I’m horrible. We have a deal, where I don’t nag her about the smoking and stuff, and she doesn’t make me drink my milk or eat her cooking.”<br><br>“Sounds like a good arrangement.”<br><br>“It’s awful ’cause I’m there or I’m with Cherry or I’m with you. It’s so boring and stuff.”<br><br>Avery smiled. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/08/18 Excerpt] from [[Leaving a Mark 4.1]]</ref>
===[[Cherrypop]]===
After hanging out with the goblins Snowdrop and Cherrypop became friends.<ref>Cherrypop's the worse of them. She's not my friend anymore. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2020/08/11 Excerpt] from [[Out on a Limb 3.9]]</ref> Both are probably the youngest Others in Kennet.

They get into all kinds of hijinks.<ref>They had been somewhere near here when Snowdrop had gotten up, holding a finger to her mouth, become an opossum, best animal, and went to the road, lying there on her back.<br><br>Someone had stopped their car, come up to her, and she’d stopped playing dead, hissing and approaching them.  While he’d been freaking out, Cherry had stolen a bag of chips from the car, nearly getting her head bitten off by the dog that was strapped into the backseat.<br><br>So funny.  Snowdrop had said the chips were easy on her conscience which made a lot of sense because the guy had been a doofus and he’d really needed a lesson about not leaving his car door open like that.  If Cherry had been a human or if she’d been a little taller she could have driven away in the car.  But Snowdrop had talked about how at least the guy wouldn’t be able to tell anyone anything about what had happened and then she’d had some chips. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/06/22 Excerpt] from [[False Move 12a]]</ref>
===[[Sir Toadswallow]]===
He's a mentor to her and takes time to teach her things. Has a long term plan to make her a Goblin Sage.

With Avery moving away this is on hold.
===Family===
Snowdrop was abandoned as a baby by her mother who was unable to provide enough milk for her and her siblings.<ref name="abandoned-snowdrop">'''TaintedKage:'''Didn't she say something about getting drunk on her mom's milk? With her gimmick, it means her mom had stopped producing or died. She was probably abandoned and starving when Verona found her.
'''Wildbow: '''Yep. I said as much in the Parahumans Discord. - [https://old.reddit.com/r/Parahumans/comments/hmos3a/_/fx7xdt9 Exchange] on Reddit</ref> [[Avery]] (and probably Snowdrop) later gave names to her immediate family members, though noting that the list was "dubiously accurate": her mother Momdrop; brothers Airdrop, Eardrop, Backdrop, Raindrop, and Eavesdrop; and sisters Teardrop, Dewdrop, Paradrop, and Gumdrop.<ref>listed in [[Keeping Tabs, Thunder Bay]]</ref>
