L Juliet is naturally sociable, outgoing and approachable, with a strong sense of curiosity. She’s observant and likes knowing what’s happening around campus, which occasionally gets her caught up in other people’s drama. She’s also quite outspoken when something bothers her and isn’t afraid to confront people who have wronged her, particularly when it comes to her friends. Despite her interest in gossip, Juliet isn’t particularly malicious. She’s generally sweet, well-meaning and loyal, with a practical side that keeps her grounded. She’s the sort of person who enjoys a bit of excitement but ultimately wants to do the right thing. One of Juliet’s biggest flaws is that her curiosity can get the better of her. She’s quick to believe rumours and can be judgemental, particularly when her own feelings are involved. However, she isn’t incapable of admitting when she’s wrong. Her relationship with Dana is particularly important to her, and her confrontation with Max shows that she can be defensive and a little sharp when she feels ignored or dismissed.
