America has always been... a little too proper, but she tries her best at loosen up often. She grew up alongside Nyalani, where they both went to a very strict school due to them having money and their parents thinking negatively about public schools. Once America and Nyalani grew closer to each other and graduated, they improved away together, but were basically on the streets for a long time. America got through some very hard times thanks to Nyalani, and they ended up getting a small apartment together. America had trusted Nyalani with fiding them jobs, which she was very disappoitned to find that Nyalani had gotten them rejected from all of them. America and Nyalani nhad a huge fight one day, and Nyalani stormed off to who knows where... and America simply felt bad about yelling at Nyalani like that even after all she's done for her. Nyalani ended up coming back with good news that Savannah ended up giving them a job at the New Future Foundation. America was convinced that Junko Enoshima could come back one day, and knew that what Savannah was doing was good. America had Nyalani now fight for HOPE together. America gained her title as Ultimate Ghost Whisperer when America noticted more and more often that she could hear things that no one else could hear... which included voices of dead loved ones. America could speak to them without fail, and was noticed by huge ghost whisperers all over the world, which is why she was given the role of Ultimate Ghost Whisperer.
