That's a good thread idea.
Liking to experiment many things, I tried this time to play a character a bit on the funny/silly side of things. The difficulty is to do it in a non-goofy way at all. It has to remain light, good hearted and subtle enough.Â
That is to say, it's actually the sugarcoat of the character concept. The crux of the matter and the overall theme I would say, is the redemption trope: it is the ability (or not) of a character to cope and deal with something rather creepy or horrible that happened in her past that she just can't face properly. It gives a character that actually spends her time fleeing rather than facing any problem (and thus hiding behind that silly side, among other things).
In the case of Suen then, it's also about doing the usual journey for atonment. It might probably happen at some point when she will mature, since she starts very, very green right now. However, she has yet to reach the point where she actually have to face the idea of redemption rather than just shying instinctively away from it.
