Minnie

Minerva Anastasia Zottola aka Minnie is the one of the hosts in the Zaka Cafe. She is an angel that works under Cupid who's job it is to watch over and protect romantic soulmate relationships. Due to her lack of understanding of romantic relationships, she went sent away by Goddess Zaka to her cafe to serve as a host until she can understand how to do her job.

Demeanor
Minnie stands normally with at least one knee bent and weight put on one side of her hip. When she doesn't have directions to follow or orders to care for she loiters around, wandering a little shyly and awkwardly, making casual conversation with guests and coworkers as she goes until she is caught in a full conversation or is given something to do. Once she's given a task she puts all her focus into it most of the time, sometimes she may get distracted if interrupted by a conversation being started with her or given a new task.

Backstory
Minnie was originally born on earth on May 14th in the year of 1943, living with her two parents as their only child in Italy. In the 1960’s there were acts of terrorism rising in Italy so her and her parents fled to America and purchased a cheap home they could afford. Unfortunately for the family though, it was haunted by a demon who preyed upon the family but specifically Minnie after she contracted smallpox. The demon used her weakened state to possess her, causing her to say horrible things and act in a constant unsightly manner all the while making her weaker and more sickly over time. Her body was unable to fight off the demon due to her sickness, and her body unable to fight off the illness due to the demon. It was a deadly combination that eventually took her life once she was put under the strain of being subjected to exorcism when her parents realized medical professionals couldn’t save her at this point.

Minnie was brought back to life to be designated as an angel that would work under Cupid who is supposed to help watch over and protect romantic soulmate relationships. But she has difficulty telling the difference between different kinds of love so she has a hard time doing her job. So multiple "romantic soulmate" kind of relationships that she was supposed to get together, fell through because she couldn't tell if she had successfully gotten them together as a romantic couple and say the job was completed, when in fact it turned out to be entirely platonic (Failed Cupid).

Hani
Her best friend is an angel named Hani Mifeng, an angel assigned to tying the red string of fate between soulmates. Minnie and Hani are extremely close, they consider each other soulmates as well but in a platonic way, holding a deep platonic love for each other.

But that kind of love and affection that Minnie has with Hani, is the reason she struggles with her job. The love she feels from Hani is the only kind of love Minnie has ever experienced besides parental, so while working to get soulmates together she bases the final product not off romantic love but off of deep platonic love. That’s why all the couples end up in a deep platonic soulmate relationship and not a romantic one.

Fear of Demons
It is also due to her first life and how she died as to why she is afraid of Balthasar and demons in general. They were the reason why her life was cut so short at only the age of 22, why she was unable to do all of the things she dreamed about which mainly included finding true love and raising a family. Those life long dreams were the reason she was put into the job she was placed in when she arrived in heaven.

Physical Description
Has long, wavy light blonde with side swept bangs to the right and a pink gradient, two ponytails on the sides of her head. Her cafe uniform is a highly detailed maid dress. Has a set of large white feathered wings.

Strengths
Always looks towards the bright sides of situations, tries to make sure everyone is comfortable and happy, full of energy.

Weaknesses
Clumsy, Receiving Compliments/being called pet names (makes her extremely shy and embarrassed, will blush and make soft noises due to embarrassment and deny the compliments), overworks herself to make sure she does her absolute best.

Habits
Fiddling with her fingers, tilting her head when embarrassed, biting her lip, rubbing her neck and ear, fidgets with jewelry, playing with her hair, singing to herself, repeating instructions given to her softly aloud to comprehend them better.
