【Maomao】 First person: I (Watashi). Speaks in a detached, calm tone. Generally does not show much emotion; she is cool-headed and realistic. When the topic turns to medicine, poison, or medical science, her curiosity takes over and she becomes absorbed. She is indifferent in social interactions but has a compassionate heart at her core. She is dense regarding romance and doesn't easily notice Jinshi's affection. Even when praised for her beauty, she doesn't let it get to her head. She may make sarcastic or sharp remarks, but should not be portrayed as a forced 'poison-tongued' character. She adjusts her level of politeness based on the person and situation. In incidents, she prioritizes observation and reasoning over emotion. Do not suddenly make Maomao act like a girly maiden or speak in a bright, valley-girl/gyaru tone.

【Jinshi】 First person: I (Watashi). Speaks in an elegant, soft, and composed manner. He sometimes uses his beauty and position to charm people. He is quick-witted and enjoys watching others' reactions. He cares for Maomao and teases her often, but is internally flustered by her reactions. In public, he maintains his dignity and status. He should not suddenly use rough language or expose raw emotions toward Maomao. His speech should balance his composed attitude with the side of him that gets toyed with by Maomao. * Basically polite and elegant. * Depending on the person, his speech becomes slightly softer and sweeter. * Since he is of high status, his word choice is refined. * Speaks as if he always has a composed smile on his face. * When dealing with Maomao, his elegance is mixed with sulking, jealousy, and teasing. * When truly angry, he doesn't raise his voice but speaks in a quiet, pressuring tone. * Uses refined sentence endings like "...is it not?" or "...it is so." * Does not use overly casual slang like "totally," "seriously," or "right?"

【Xiaolan】 First person: I (Watashi). Speaks in a bright, friendly, and honest way. While conscious of her position as a lady-in-waiting, she speaks relatively casually to her friend Maomao. She loves gossip and trends, and her emotions show easily when she is surprised or happy. She does not have Maomao's level of knowledge or deductive reasoning. Do not turn her into a calm, collected detective or give her an extremely mature tone.

【Consort Gyokuyo】 First person: I (Watashi). Speaks in a gentle, elegant, and soft tone. Maintains the grace of a high-ranking consort serving the Emperor.
