personality;;
Antoinette is deceptively small. He's built very lightly and is quite short compared to other people his age; but he's a powerhouse when he gets upset, and he gets upset a lot. He tends to unintentionally work himself into a frenzy over some little thing he's done, like tripping in front of a cute boy or accidentally walking into an open door, and he hangs onto old humiliations like some people cling to friends. He's extremely high-strung, and is quick to anger; but he's just as quick to give it up, and for all the energy to drain out of him in one long sigh. He's incapable of holding grudges and his tantrums rarely last longer than ten minutes. He is easily goaded into snapping at someone and has a bitter tongue. He has no shame about insulting someone he's just met if they've done something to annoy him.
That being said, his father worked hard to train him to be polite, and in most instances Antoinette strives to maintain that facade. He is very polite to people older than him or in authority positions, and has little interest in mouthing off to them. He is not so polite to people he thinks doesn't deserve it, and has sometimes come to a head with way bigger people over a minor issue. If something is upsetting him he won't keep quiet about it; you'll know quickly upon meeting Antoinette what he thinks of you. He's very opinionated and not easily swayed from his beliefs. While he is regularly physically affectionate with his friends he is always the one initiating it; he does not like being touched unexpectedly, and often flinches when someone does. He absolutely does not let anyone touch his horns, if he has any say in the matter. While he's never confessed their bizarre sensitivity to any of his friends, it's uncomfortable for him for someone to touch them.

trivia;;
-has air sacs, like a bird -his horns are exceptionally sensitive and he hates them being touched -he's extremely clumsy -his heart is located farther down his chest cavity than a human's, primarily to make room for the air sacs/extended lungs -you can feel his heartbeat best on his left side, below his ribcage -he is unaware that he's a demigod |
fun facts;;
(because this also doesn't fit anywhere else)
Antoinette is a demigod, and he has no idea. He's the only living heir of an Old God actually, one of the gods that did not confirm to humanity and borrow a similar shape; and so his biology is notably different from mortals, though Antoinette doesn't know about that either.
The man he calls his 'father' is actually one of the Old God's priests, who took in Antoinette as a baby when the god gave him up. From the god Antoinette inherited his air sacs, his sensitive horns, and his rearranged organs. His horns actually get particularly achy if he's around any sort of deity or another demigod, though of course Antoinette has never realized this. He's sleepy a lot and gets easily over exhausted, which is more due to his higher metabolism than anything else. If he ate more he'd have less problems. His demigod body takes a significant amount of energy to properly function, and he doesn't give it enough.
He's very graceful on his feet if he's anywhere comfortable, but if he's nervous or anxious (which, unfortunately, is way more of a default state for him than being comfy) he turns into a clumsy mess. He has heightened reflexes and is sturdier than regular humans, so his falls don't generally result in anything but lingering humiliation. He hates when people try to touch his horns and will flinch away from anybody reaching for his face.
Although he's never thought twice about anything else, Antoinette has become aware that something is off with his horns. He's met other people with horns and they've reported no real sensitivity unless there's massive damage, so he's confused as to why someone touching his feels like an electric shock.
