WEIRDLY SPECIFIC BUT HELPFUL CHARACTER BUILDING QUESTIONS

How loosely or strictly do they use the word ‘friend’? She is friendly, but she won't call you her "friend" so easily.


How often do they show their genuine emotions to others versus just the audience knowing? Mary is very difficult to read. So, very few people know exactly how she feels. 


Can they cry on command? If so, what do they think about making it happen? No.


How loose is their use of the phrase ‘I love you’? She only uses it when she genuinely loves you. 


Do they give tough love or gentle love most often? Which do they prefer to receive? Gentle love. Gentle love. She cruelly needs it.


What fact do they excitedly tell everyone about at every opportunity? That she is Mrs Thomas Shelby.

When do they fake a smile? How often? When she is in public, and has to endure humiliation or cozy up with people she loathes.

Who would / do they believe without question? Tommy Shelby.
