[[{{PAGENAME}}]] is a hairdresser from the [[So You Want To Be a Demonologist Arc]]. She is one of the owners of [[The Car]].

== Physical description ==
Elisha is a human woman. She is short enough that the top of her hair only comes up to Thomas's shoulder. She has blonde hair. She puts a lot of time into her appearance.<ref name="eat">{{AO3Citation|ThisCat|Thomas and Elisha|2016|https://archiveofourown.org/works/7785514/chapters/17759272}}</ref>

== Personality ==
She is a lot tougher than she looks. She is not afraid to "stare down" and yell at the [[Rainbow Basher]].<ref name="eat"/>

== History ==

At one point, she dated a man named Charlie. He was abusive toward her, hitting her whenever he saw her talk to other men. She eventually got The Car to run him over multiple times, killing him without implicating her. After that, she moved to the city and got a job at a hair salon called [[Les Ciseaux]].<ref name="eat"/>

She first met [[Thomas Strange]], [[Dipper Pines|Tyrone Evergreen]], and their friends at a pit stop. The Car and the Rainbow Basher got into a fight outside, and Tyrone instructed them on how to stop it. Elisha parted ways with the others after this encounter, but didn't forget the experience.<ref name="stad32">{{AO3Citation|ThisCat|Small things about demons, chapter 32: Car Trouble|2015|https://archiveofourown.org/works/4829432/chapters/16411330}}</ref>

Eventually, interested in The Car's history, she tried to track down Tyrone through Thomas for more information. She ended up randomly encountering Thomas and the Rainbow Basher at a diner. The two of them started dating shortly afterward.

== Relationships ==
=== The Car ===
Elisha owns [[The Car]] and loves it despite its rough appearance. She often talks to it, and can interpret the sounds it makes as responses. She is aware of its reputation as "the undead car of legend", and was interested enough in its history to track down Tyrone to learn more.<ref name="eat"/>

The Car is protective of Elisha. It murdered her ex-boyfriend Charlie for abusing her. It was initially suspicious of Thomas, when they started dating, but it came around to him.

=== Thomas Strange ===
She first met [[Thomas Strange|Thomas]] at a pit stop when his car and her car started fighting outdoors.<ref name="stad32"/> They met again randomly at a diner while Elisha was trying to track down Tyrone.<ref name="eat"/>

They bonded over the fact that they both had cars which were sort of alive, and started to date. She finds him sweeter and more honest than other people she had dated in the past, and enjoys the fact that he is enthusiastic about stuff.

=== Her family ===
Elisha doesn't talk very much about her family. She has an uncle who was present while she was growing up, but other than that her relationship with her family was essentially non-existent.<ref name="eat"/>

=== Charlie ===
Charlie is one of Elisha's ex-boyfriends. While their relationship began romantically enough, it turned abusive after a while. He was distrusting of her and got jealous when she'd talk to other guys.<ref name="eat"/>

== Trivia ==
* She likes romance movies.<ref name="eat"/>
