Ally Malet

Alison 'Ally' Malet is an agent of the Department of Floaters. She is written by Astral Void.

Appearance
Ally is about 5'11 and very thin, though she is still quite muscular. Her hair is long, red, and usually in a braid. Her eyes are dark brown and usually described as 'slightly mad'. She has a large number of old scars, mostly on her arms, face and legs.

Personality
On the outside, Ally appears to be kind, friendly, curious and helpful. On the inside, however, she's a seething ball of cynical rage. While she spent a lot of time in FicPsych, the results have been mixed- now she's analytical and strangely calm even in horrible badfics, choosing to reserve her rage for fics that deserve them. As a result of growing up in Panem and being a tribute, she is both a cynic and a pessimist who refuses to believe in idealism, true love or 'happily ever after', dismissing them as the fantasies of children. She also finds it hard to form emotional attachments, whether it's to canons she likes or people she knows (though she has a very strong hatred of her home continuum). Despite this, she is trying to work through her problems and overcome them with the help of FicPsych.

After growing up in a place deprived of culture, she has a strong interest in art, music, games and literature that her partner is encouraging. She finds it fascinating.

Agent History
Ally began life as 'Mira Forrest', the girl tribute from District Seven in a Hunger Games fic of the 'pick a number and write the Games for it' variety. She joined forces with the protagonist, a Marty Stu, who let her do the work while coasting by on his luck. He encouraged her to fall in love with him, and once it was down to the two of them, broke her heart so she wouldn't fight back... at which point the PPC stepped in, killing the Stu and rescuing Mira, who they recruited. Once she'd changed her name and got out of FicPsych, she was made an Intern, and spent several weeks studying various canons while waiting for the SO to finally get around to assigning her to an Agent pair. Eventually, by the time he did, the Floating Hyacinth had asked him if he had a spare Agent for a new transfer. The SO agreed to transfer Ally, who was only too happy to agree.
