I’d love the spiel on good ol’, classic-model Maddie!
OH BOY, I've been waitin for this one, crackin my knuckles here
Long and short of their personality is that they're pretty quiet around those they don't know, minmaxes their speech in order to communicate if necessary but otherwise they just kinda stomp around and mind their own business. Around people they DO know though, practically an entirely different person, very energetic, very prone to illustrate what they're talking about with gestures (and subconscious flourishes of magic and whatnot) with a mixture of cheekiness and a hint of protectiveness that manifests itself every so often. Very prone to talking on end about a subject if the chance is provided as well (Who'd have figured right?).
---
So Maddie's whole deal is that like, essentially they're comprised entirely of magic? Constructed with a mix of both mana and data due to the completely incidental circumstances of their creation (long and short is a growing magic crystal formation piercing an old-world computer with an AI core and template in it).
They're kinda really curious as a result? A lot of their info starting off was strictly inherent (language and all that) so they spent a lot of time learning stuff from their outside environment, which is at least partially why they tend to take on beastly appearances due to a lot of that developmental time being spent in the woods with the wildlife in the area surrounding where they were created. Especially early on in their time they kinda just, walked around as this big quad kitsune lookin beast and would even still wander around towns and cities in that appearance in spite of clearly sticking out like a sore thumb.
As a result of essentially only being magic, they kinda don't really have an interior or anything, like if you were to perform an x-ray on them it would kinda just, show absolutely nothing. All their thoughts are essentially done as "processes" really due to that partial AI component, they just absorb things they eat once they swallow rather than having a distinct stomach or nothing. Since their form is really loose in that regard it's what allows them to shapeshift so damn easily honestly? Plus the whole like, mana+data mixture means that it's really easy for them to just, get into people's machinery and operate it for them if they so desire.
A lot of this stuff kinda just, ended up being elaborated upon later but it all kinda fell into place as far as like
A. I like Maddie being an AI to an extent
B. I like Maddie being made of magic to an extent
Which ended up leading into
C. I like Maddie being a volatile beast of magic that kinda just hangs around in spite of being monstrously overpowered, big beasty that chills with pals and is vaguely a little off-kilter

IMAGINE:
Danny Phantom the Mitchell's vs the Machines AU
Fentons as the Mitchells, BUT Vlad is not Pal, neither is Technus, but instead The Maddie AI! Maybe Mansons as the Poseys
Or whatever you want to with the AU, I just had to share it with you all. Tagging me would be nice so I can see what you do with it 😃
Also watch the movie if you can it's great and on netflix

Hey happy mgm! 💖✨💖 for today’s question: what is one thing your character would change about themselves, if they had one magic wish? One thing physically and one thing personality wise. Have a lovely day!
thanks so much for the ask! I’ll answer this one with an OC from a sci-fi/romance/beginnings-of-dystopia-if-you-squint wip called The Singularity of Life that I haven’t officially introduced yet, so here’s the first mention of it on this blog!
A bit of an intro to her, first - Maddie Chen is a Chinese-American high schooler who feels out of place both in her extended family’s traditional Chinese culture and her friends’ American lives. Her parents are both actuaries (and over-achievers) who were laid off because AI have become more efficient and accurate at analyzing risk than humans. She’s stuck between her friendship with her best friend Christine, aspiring robot engineer, and her parents’ disdain for the scientific advancements that have cost them their livelihood.
One thing she would change physically - Maddie definitely feels self-conscious about her height! She’s average height among her family but feels especially self-conscious around her taller friend Christine. The height difference is kind of symbolic of the tension between the two.
One thing she would change personality-wise - Maddie wishes she was a better conversationalist. She’s really happy to have two great friends in Christine and their other pal Camille, but she envies the way that they make connections so easily. Maybe she fears that they’re only talking to her out of pity or duty, especially as she’s had a hard time talking even to them recently - a problem she’s never really had before.
wow that was long! thanks so much for the ask again, this was really fun to write!
