Violet Heaslip
Becky’s best friend from school. Violet (voiced by Maria Bamford) conducts herself in a quiet, shy manner and has a flair for art, having met Becky in an art appreciation class after Becky flunked art class three times in a row. Violet lives in the country apparently not too far from the suburbs in a hippie-styled house with her mother. There is no apparent father in her life. Violet is friends with Becky's crush, Scoops Todd Ming, and in the episode "Cherish Is the Word" the two proved to have feelings for each other when Scoops asked her to be his valentine. Despite Violet's ever-sweet demeanor, she can become enraged and protective when her friends are disadvantaged or harmed. She loves pegasi, and she can make up poems off the top of her head, even if there is a meteor hurling towards her. At times she seems to have a rather tenuous grasp of reality, even more so than Becky's parents, as she dreams about winning the Pulitzer Prize in poetry. In one episode, she believes that she temporarily gained superpowers and becomes "The Framer", who uses a picture frame to capture villains. She also has a love for animals and is a vegetarian. She also has a cat named Priscilla.

Famous quotes containing the word violet:
“I know a bank where the wild thyme blows,
Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows,
Quite overcanopied with luscious woodbine,
With sweet musk-roses, and with eglantine:
There sleeps Titania sometime of the night,
Lulled in these flowers with dances and delight.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
