Editing Aisha Laborn (section)

==Personality==
Imp has a similar insouciant personality to [[Regent]], but she is insolent, and rebellious rather than lazy. She dislikes authority figures and often gripes with Regent about Skitter and Grue being in charge. She was described as being a flight risk by the care worker in charge of Brian's guardianship case, advising him to take care that she feels equal and welcome in the environment. She has no qualms about lying to make her life easier and does her best to duck out of trouble and difficult relationships. She is often immature but can be quite playful.

It's possible that her mother's drug use during pregnancy led to Aisha's problems with judgment, memory, impulse control and learning ability.<ref name="SB1">There's some drugs that, if the mother takes them while pregnant, can lead to children with problems with judgement, memory, impulse control and learning ability. - [https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/8291955 Wildbow on Spacebattles]</ref> Aisha believes this to be the case, that her mother's drug use messed with her brain development, causing ADHD. This upsets her a great deal and likely explains her personality. She has an incredible hatred of drugs and abhors anybody who sells them. She still cares for her mother, spending time invisible in the apartment, watching her life. She hated her mother's numerous boyfriends and repeatedly hid drugs in an attempt to get her mother to stop taking them.<ref name="13.5">“You keep going down this road, your kid is going to be born without a face or something,” Aisha said, her voice quiet.  “You know how hard school was for me?  Even as far back as kindergarten, I couldn’t sit still.  Teacher tells me three things, and by the time they’ve gotten to the third, I’ve forgotten the first.  And Brian doesn’t have any of that.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/08/02 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 13.5 (Donation Bonus)]]</ref>

Like Regent, she has a violent personality and explains in graphic detail how adept she is at psychological torment. She promises to drive Skitter insane if she harms Grue, showing how protective she can be of the people she cares for.

Her power both fits and clashes with her personality.<ref>Her mom didn’t notice her.  Nobody ever noticed her, and they noticed even less ever since she’d gotten her power.  It was like a dark joke, a grim comedy.  Just when she’d started to figure things out, grow up and catch people’s eye, the world went to hell and she got her powers.  Now she became invisible if she lost her concentration. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/08/02/interlude-13%C2%BD-donation-bonus/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 13.5 (Donation Bonus)]]</ref> Having people forget about her fits with her psychological defense mechanisms, but she resents the fact that she will always be ignored.<ref name="Tarot">The Hermit<br>"Upright: Soul searching, introspection, being alone, inner guidance<br>Reversed: Isolation, loneliness, withdrawal"<br><br>Imp<br><br>'''Imp's personal challenge is one of being isolated, attempting to gain some agency when the rest of the world or her power are trying to take it away, separating her from the world.  Even when working with the team, she's functionally alone.'''- [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ntXwQcmkioq4NPPayBEIjA4dHPD-TXpjU1bnul3udWg/edit#gid=0  Major Arcana], bolded addition by Wildbow.</ref> She describes the best times of her childhood as being when her mother would forget about her, allowing her to watch hours of "brain rotting" cartoons.

===Relationships===
====[[Brian Laborn]]====
Loves him as her big brother even as she drives him crazy as his little sister. Aisha specifically promises to drive Taylor insane through her powers if the girl harms her brother<ref>“Talking hy-po-theticals.  I get them in trouble with people they know.  Then they have little injures they can’t remember getting.  Splinters under their fingernails, papercuts between their fingers or at the corners of their mouths, little cuts on the back of their hands.  That’s usually when they freak out.  They run, go somewhere else, and it stops, just a little while.  Until it comes again, twice as bad as before.  They snap.  Then I leave them a message telling them that it all stops when they leave the city.  Put it on their walls in blood or put it on their bathroom mirror in soap so it shows up when the room gets all steamy.  They’re ''glad''.  They’re happy to have a way out.  Except I wouldn’t leave you that note.”<br><br> - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/10/27/colony-15-4/ Excerpt] from [[Colony 15.4]]</ref>, showing how protective she of him.

====[[Jean-Paul "Alec" Vasil]]====
They have ''extremely ''similar personalities. do seem to love each other but it seem largely to be philia love over something like an adult relationship. She did mourn him and took pains to create a memorial to him through her actions.

===[[Taylor Hebert]]===
After [[Gold Morning]], she and the other [[Undersiders]] did not talk about or draw attention to [[Khepri]]. As it was her friend's lowest and most terrible point, they did not want to risk it overshadowing Taylor, Weaver, or Skitter.<ref>Have Eidolon, Alexandria, or the Endbringers come up that much either?<br><br>It's easy to conflate Khepri as a thing when we had a firsthand view of her, but she was one big threat among many at a time there were a lot of big threats and a lot of things going on - most don't connect Khepri to Skitter, and the ones who can (Legend, Chevalier) aren't necessarily touting her praises or wanting to spread awareness of just how close parahumans came to being entirely out of [humanity's] control, or they (Tattletale et al) don't really want to draw attention to a friend's lowest, greatest, and most terrible point- to get people talking about Khepri would risk that Taylor, Weaver, and Skitter were overshadowed by this bigger, more sinister name and identity.<br><br>People's focus lies elsewhere, if they have any idea what happened. - Comment by Wildbow on Reddit, archived on Spacebattles</ref><!-- https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/51239092 --> Aisha wanted to protect ''Taylor's'' legacy, not Khepri's.<ref name="E.2 eLegacies">Imp looked down at the armored man.  “You’re fucking with an old friend, using her schtick, taking it ugly places.  So it looks like I have a bit of a hobby, now.  If you get in touch with Teach, or vice versa, then let him know I’m not cool with it, and I’ll stop being a thorn in his side the day he stops cribbing from someone else’s game plan.  ''Capiche''?”<br><br>Nero couldn’t bring himself to answer.<br><br>“It’s about legacies,” Imp said.  “Kind of important.  She’s gone, so it’s up to us to protect her legacy.  Now here’s another.  Desk drawer, bottom right.” - [[Teneral e.2]]</ref>
