Octavia (Blake)

-- Octavia typically gets up earlier than the guys, but not as early as she used to.
-- She did not used to be a coffee drinker. And she can still get going without it just fine, but since she's often the first one up she might as well make coffee, and since she's already making it she might as well also drink some, so...
-- Octavia is garbage at keeping to a yoga routine, but if/when she manages it, it's after breakfast. Or in between coffee and actual breakfast (also, so much of her breakfast is fruit it's not even funny).
-- The actual day/time specific routines Octavia has are therapy on Tuesdays (late morning, typically portaling out to the version of New York her therapist is based in) followed by a swim at a community pool she likes, work at the club on Wednesday nights (she's almost always there, even though I skip some posts), and then date nights with Duke on some Friday nights and with Lucifer on some Sunday nights. This is juuuuust about the right level of structure in her life to keep her feeling functional without veering into reminding her how strict the years down in the bunker were for her.
-- Everything else is pretty much freeform. She used to go into the preserve a lot, but has had to limit that to increments of less than an hour since she managed to catch a trouble that makes her skin kill plants, and the salve Pam made for her only works for so long. So now the preserve is less of a routine and more of a treat that needs to be prepared for. (Of course this is about to change, but shhhh preplay spoilers.)
-- Instead of roaming the preserve, Octavia has gone back to taking lengthy walks around the island. She probably has every cobblestone memorized by now, and is likely a familiar figure to many around town.
-- At home, she reads (often in implausible/impractical positions, a fact I do not make nearly enough mention of), tends to her garden on the deck (once it's time again), and plays the drums. And, you know, spends a lot of time with her two partners. A lot of time.
-- Definitely one of those people that Taste of Thai knows by name and typical order. She's trying to learn to cook, and lives with two people who are excellent at it and happy to do it for her, but also comfort takeout is important.
-- Octavia sleeps okay, most of the time. The nightmares like to resurface sometimes, but after this long, that's normal for her. She doesn't strive to go to bed early, but, again, probably prefers to do it earlier than the people she's sharing a bed with, unless they have something interesting going on.
