𝜗 𓈒 ( Personality ) - Mikan Tsumiki is a very emotional and fragile individual, very obviously being shaped by years of torment. Her personality is defined by a submissive nature and self loathing. She is constantly seeking approval from others, fearing rejection, and having extreme anxiety in social situations. Her speech is constantly hesitant, stuttering often and fearing what might happen next.
Despite her broken attitude, Mikan is quite intelligent when it comes to things in which they are related to her talent. She has a large knowledge for medical terms and she can come to a calm when it comes to helping others. Though it's true she is strong in this case, the moment she is out of her field she finds herself to be the same fearful version she was before.
When pushed to the brim, Mikan has a deep trauma that can manifest into more than just something that is a little disturbing. She can become a bit morbid, and even sadistic in a sense, having a more manipulative side hidden under her front. Though it's not too far from her actual self, it is a drastic change from the meek character she usually is.
Overall, she is tragic and broken, but she can be tender, loyal, and even sweet. She always seems to have a dark cloud over her head, and a pessimistic sense of morals, but she is still a very sweet girl!

𝜗 𓈒 ( Backstory ) - The ultimate nurse's history is marked by both neglect and cruelty. Often she would endure both mental and physical pain from both her family and her classmates. The bullying was relentless from harsh words, to abuse from an entire selection of different methods. The worst part of it all though, was that she would typically blame no one but herself.
Friendship was extremely rare, and often even her teachers would betray her. Tsumiki found that abuse was a twisted type of connection, and that if she had to choose, she would pick being hurt over being completely ignored. The fear of being alone was far greater than any fear of pain, and so she just let anyone do anything they wanted.
With no one else to care for her, Mikan often found herself to be dependent on her own skills. From a young age she learned how to tend to her wounds, and what began as survival turned into pure strength, finally giving her a purpose. She learned that those who are sick and needy are even more helpless than her, and for once she could be relied on for means outside of dirty awful ones. This hardship is what ultimately lead her to suceed in her field.

𝜗 𓈒 ( Headcanons ) - Though not a doctor, because Mikan has interacted with others in her field, she has been able to get officially diagnosed with Autism, BPD, and Schizophrenia, all which affect her overall well - being, but are being consistently treated as she is on a multitude of medications.
Tsumiki has dysphemia, which causes her to stutter often, mainly when she's nervous.
She has shaky hands when typing, so it causes her to accidentally click a few extra letters most of the time.
She has insomnia, and other paranoia, so in some au's (where it's allowed) she recreationally smokes when needed.
Despite being very cautious with her words, Mikan is also very blunt, and can sometimes say the wrong thing at the wrong time.
Her stims include shaking her hands very fast when worried or too excited.
