"Steven Grant Rogers," a voice said from somewhere near Steve's front door. "Professional inker. Maybe you'd like to explain why you're leaving us messages about our good friend Bucky?"
The redhead currently pinning Steve to the couch said, "Really?"
"Alright, her good friend Bucky. My tolerated friend Bucky."
"My phone's on the table," Steve ground out. "Grab it, have a look at the last picture."
The guy grabbed it, and his obvious double-take would have been funny if Steve wasn't being crushed into his couch. He held it out and the redhead peered at it. "It could be fake."
"That's right," Steve said, digging down for all the sarcasm that existed in his skinny body. "I scribbled all over my own thighs and took a photo so I could lure a pair of hostile weirdos to my apartment. That's how I enjoy spending my time."
"You know what this means, right?" the guy said, sounding deeply bemused. "Bucky has a soulmate."

Graphology - studying Amane's handwriting
I said in a previous post that I used to like graphology, so I decide to analyse for a bit one of Milgram's characters handwriting. Amane was chosen after I spinned the wheel, because I couldn't decide who to do!
Before proceeding, I want to remind that it was done for fun, and, because I only have her signature, I couldn't put all the information found on different sites!
1. "Pointed letters are a sign of an intelligent person who might be holding back aggression. Rounded letters signal creativity and artistic ability."
For this, I had to look at other Milgram characters handwriting in order to decide if her writing can be considered more on the rounded spectrum or pointed spectrum.
When compared with Kotoko's handwriting, which appears to be more agressive or with Fuuta, whose writing seems to lack any roundness, I couldn't consider Amane's handwriting as pointed. With the exception of letter A, the rest are quite rounded and the letter u, for example, looks similar with Yuno's (who without a doubt has rounded letters)
Amane, although she often tries to study and says that she likes it, is confirmed that she doesn't necesseraly has a special inclination towards it, or, at least, towards the more logistic subjects, such as math.
"Amane: ……what’s wrong, Shidou-san? Your hand has stopped marking. This is mathematics, so there’s no questions about the answers. If I got something wrong, please mark it with an X."
(skipping some dialogue!)
Amane: …please give me back my test. It seems you don’t have the concentration levels required to be my teacher. I’m going to get Kotoko-san to teach me instead."
And Amane asks her in a future interrogation question, in which Kotoko says this:
"Kotoko: There, I’ve finished marking. 83%. How do I put it… Even though you act like this, it’s not like you’re super brilliant at studying or anything, huh."
However, Amane prides herself with her japanese skills, literature being considered as a form of art, because you need lots of creativity in order to write a proper composition.
"What are your special skills?"
If we also consider Amane's first MV, called Magic, in which there are a lot of cartoonish elements, it proves further that Amane has an artistic ability!
2. "The size of a writer's letters shows how they fit in with their environment. Relatively large letters might indicate that someone demands attention, while smaller letters are typically written by someone who is modest and unassuming."
Amane is very modest, learning since an early age to appreciate the smallest things, hiding her temptation for cute objects or desserts, being happy with what she has.
From Purge March, we descovered that Amane's financial situation doesn't seem to be very favourable.
Old furniture, messy rooms. The walls from the front are cracked, indicating that it is a very old building.
And still, when asked if she wishes to do something, her response is negative, saying that she doesn't lack anything.
"If you could do anything and be forgiven for it, what would you do?"
Even when it comes to birthdays, she doesn't necesseraly want an object as a gift, being happy with just a "Happy birthday" addresed to her.
"Kazui: Even so, though, it’s not like I have a present to give you or anything. Sorry…if push comes to shove, maybe I can ask the guard for a cake. Depending on their mood, they might agree to it.
Amane: No, that’s fine. I’m not especially fond of that sort of thing. I’ll just accept your kind words as a gift."
Also, she doesn't seem to crave for attention in general, with her current state, distancing herself from most people, Yuno's interruption and approach, making Amane to feel a bit annoyed, uncomfortable.
"Amane: What is it…… Kashiki Yuno. Don’t sit so close to me. Go away.
Yuno: Sorry for barging in when you’re getting into your worldview thing. But Mahiru-san’s finally managed to get to sleep. Humour me with some small talk while I take a break."
"Small handwriting can also indicate someone with strong focus and concentration who tends to work on one thing at a time rather than multi-tasking."
In this small interaction between those two, it seems like, Yuno has distracted Amane from an activity, probably praying, and ultimely had to stop in order to listen to what Yuno has to say, meaning that she is not much of a multi-tasking person.
3."The space between letters shows the writer's need for personal space. Someone who writes with plenty of space between each letter typically doesn't like to be crowded and needs a lot of personal space. If their letters are closer together or even overlapping, it indicates they prefer to be around people and get lonely easy."
Amane writes with a lot of space between letters. As I stated before, she doesn't seem to mind loneliness, finding it quite comforting.
I could again put the interaction between Amane and Yuno, but I find it repetitive! So, I'll give other examples!
Amane enjoying a late night drink with the only company being Jackalope, pointing at her soft spot for animals.
Amane liking to study or read alone, being happy in a peaceful atmosphere.
4. "If your e's are usually narrow, you’re probably skeptical and uninfluenced by emotions. If you find that your e’s are usually large, you might be more open-minded and willing to try new things."
If we consider that Amane's handwriting is quite small, for her, the e's loop is surprisingly quite large.
We have to understand that Amane's unwillingness to try new things, such as desserts, amusement parks, or music, is because of her education and the way she was tought by her parents.
In reality, Amane is secretly wishing to eat desserts, to try cute outfits, to play with pretty things. However, she had to learn to refrain herself from doing so, because of the rules, in order to not receive anymore punishments and to be praised for being a good child.
"Shidou: Amane, I heard it was your birthday today. I asked Es-kun if we could get this cake to give to you……
Amane: I don’t need it. I’ll gratefully accept your well-wishes, but I don’t eat things like that. Also…… Shidou-san, I can’t say I’m especially fond of the way you assume that all children will love frivolous things like this.
Shidou: …Is that so… I apologise. I’m sure everyone else will be happy to eat it, so don’t worry about it. Sorry for intruding.
Amane: ……
……cake……"
Yes, she doesn't want to change her ways, her mindset, but that's because she can't just completely erase her education, what she believes in. In reality, in a place like Milgram, those rules and religion is the only thing left that seems familiar.
Moreover, this answer always stood out to me...
"If the world were to end tomorrow, what would you do?"
Amane is open to try new things, if something or someone wouldn't hold her back. If the world would end tomorrow, there is no reason is being afraid of a punishment, the consequences don't matter anymore. It's pointless to think about what would happen, when there is no future. So Amane believes that she can as well live the moment, experince as many new things as possible!
Thank you for reading! ~🖋️

Graphology interpretation for Vlad the Impaler
Disclaimer: If you're not very into pseudo-science and investigation techniques, consider this exercise just as something to have fun :)
The main search for this exercise comes from this letter, that includes his famous signature of "Vladislaus Dragulya".
Letters considered for this exercise: M, I, E, L, S, C, D, T, A, G, P
M (interpersonal relationships): With the wider first arch -a.k.a the first line- we find a proud person in need for recognizement. The Sharp traces show a shy but easily irritable personality. The over arched and unchained letter talks about the need for self-protection and dificulties to adapting.
I (atention and presition): With a soft, high pressure, indicates idealism, intuition, reverié tendences and objectivity to get those ideals to reality. The straight letter shows a fast, dynamic mind, tendence to isolation, independence and a strong will.
E (interaction with the context): Bold and written in diagonal shows rancour, lack of trust and arrogance.
L (intelect): The multiple crooks in this letter show a rebel spirit, cleverness, the search for protection (by themselves and others) and a tendence to masochism. A very high letter indicates idealism.
S (mind): A small twirl -the one below the cursive s- talks about honesty and a good disposition for a familiar environment.If the twirl is also very angled, indicates posesivity and greed -not material but in knowledge -.
C (affection): With a lot of angle at the moment of writting, indicates posesivity -again, lol -, rancor and the need for exclusivity from their beloved ones -baby needs a hug -. The clear, simplified letter talks about selfishness, roughness and overwhelming emotions.
D (creativity and hidden nature): Without a final trace it indicates shyness and a need for spirituality. A crushed oval talks about sharp cleverness but also, submission -to whom? -. And being written pressed to the left side show a methodical inteligence, lack of trust in others, melancholy and the constant supress of suffering.
T (will and vitality): A straight line with a curvy base talks about a firm hand to other but without unnecesary roughness, and the high cross talks about a serious and rebel personality that has ruling skills. It also shows a balance between what's earned and what is wanted, or if is wiser to step back or impose.
A (honesty): A closed circle talks about self reflexion and analysis, along with prudence and a very introvert speech. A crushed letter talks about a sensation of stress and exhaustion, and a very wide angle below talks about the need to protect themselves, rancor and issues to comunicate their true thoughts.
G (desire... yup, *that* desire): A small oval or circle talks about a person who's shy to express their needs and desires. An elongated angle refers to a high need for pleasure and lust, and the added angle indicates fear to disgusting intimate experiences -Vladut my boy are u okay? -a resentment for their own needs and anxiety.
P (material needs): Starting the letter with an obvious angle is an indicative for skills in comercial and material activities, and the typographic style shows a good educated mind, intelligence and good mental exercise.
