Modest young lady.
 
Per recent Daniil's interview Alyona is an endless chatterbox of the group. They can hear her "cute little high-pitched voice from everywhere". Alyona is also the most emotional and animated off the ice.

Well, true, Alyona is a very open and talkative lady. She often reminds me a that obnoxious and mischievous character you often see in cartoons who are always up to no good and always cracking jokes and puns. Remember Ted Barton thought that Alyona is "just angelic"? Hehe. Oh well then, Alyona is indeed a good actress and performer, she can fool anyone with her amazing interpretation skills and acting talent. But in real life she is rather tomboyish and chatty person as well. A bit naughty and fun-loving individual fo sho.
 
Q - Did you see how Daniil parody you in the interview?Do you like it?
A - Yes I saw, first time in my life I agree with Gniloe FK, it's not funny.

I’m confused by what this means, is she upset? Or is this an inside joke?

This is the answer from ask.fm. It seems Alena didn't like the moment in the interview when Daniil was ridiculed her. In my opinion this is a really bad joke, especially in relation to his student.
 
More questions Alyona answered on her ask.fm:

Q: You have mastered English, and you talk with foreign sportspersons? A: Yes.
Q: You can speak in many inflictions of voice? A: Yes.
Q: You've seen how in an interview, Danya did parody you? Did you like it? A: I've watched it, for the first time in my life I agree with that rotten Gniloe FK, it was not funny.
Q: You jumped and fell today? A: Yes. But I am only back on the ice for four days.
Q: What does a skater think about while performing? A: I do not know, I personally think about how much more to skate and how tired I am.
Q: Alyona, when does the interview about Tchaikovskaya etc. come out ? A: On the anniversary of Yelena Anatolyevna, December 30.
Q: Do you sometimes think about switching to Pairs or Ice Dance? A?: Yes
Q: Did you give Eteri Georgiyevna flowers before you left? A: I did not leave and do not intend to do so.
Q: You became friends with Alyona Kanysheva? A: Yes.
Q: How would you describe Alyona Kanysheva with 3 words? A: Cheerful, purposeful, sociable.
Q: Is there a chance that you'll keep your short program for the next season? It is masterpiece, as I saw you in it. A: Maybe, but I don’t really like to keep it that long, I quickly get tired of performing the same thing. Your program is like your state of mind, you cannot express it in words. After 2 years in a row is impossible to still feel the same about it.
Q: Daniil Markovich, is he a strict trainer? Do you like working with him? A: He is rather demanding, but I like working with him.
Q: Alyona, would you agree to give an interview to Yelena Rodina for her project, "Figurview"? A: I don't know.
Q: Angel or Juliett? A: You'll find out later ...
Q: What is your favourite jump and spin series? Q: Flip, and combination spins.
Q: You chat with Alina Zagitova? A: Yes.
Q: How tall are you? 151 cms.
Q: How did you go skating and even learn difficult elements on Edea Chorus? A: They are so soft, recommended for double jumps. Since my weight is only small, they did not break.
Q: What were the pink blotches on your boots? A: Makeup I spilled on the towel on which they lay.
Q: Who advised you to change skates? A: I decided myself, and in addition to this, the old model broke down every 2 months.
Q: You now wear Eden Piano boots? A: Yes, they are the most comfortable I've ever had
Q: And your new skates were heat molded/form fitted to your feet, or they fitted you right out of the box? A: Right out of the box. As I tried them on, I realized that I hadn’t worn more convenient skates.
Q: They are incredibly rigid. How long did you need to break them in? Are there any features? A: After 2 trainings everything fell into place, I was immediately comfortable in them.
Q: Alyona, is there a chance to see you in the new show in Krasnodar, or was there no time at all to prepare because you were injured? Yes, I'll be there, though without jumps.
Q: You will show your Vampire routine in Krasnodar? A: Yes.
Q: about the earlier question on teasing classmates: You did so yourself? A: No, I read about it in a book on psychology.
Q: Would you prefer to pretend to be a mermaid or a unicorn? A: Unicorn. I have lots of them.
Q: And what was the inflammation on your leg? Only skin deep? What cause? A: I don't know.

So again mostly normal questions and some trick ones: about Alyona apparently leaving Khrustalniy, about Kanysheva's character, this Rodina woman, etc.
Glad to read Alyona doesn't like that Gniloe FK channel, where stolen private live streams are published amongst other rubbish.

Hahaha, her comment on Gleikhengauz' voice parody is so typical of the funny 15 year old Alyona is, kids her age cannot yet appreciate someone making innocent but good fun of them, she is still too self conscious.
 
"Q: Do you sometimes think about switching to Pairs or Ice Dance? A?: Yes
Q: Did you give Eteri Georgiyevna flowers before you left, 2 days ago? A: I did not leave and do not intend to do so.
Q: You will show your Vampire routine in Krasnodar? A: Yes."

Oh no! Oh yes! Hell yes!
 
Dude.....no!!!:curse:

It's probably because Alyona is best pals with Dar'ya Pavlyuchenko. No doubt Alyona has tried to skate with a partner just for fun, perhaps with Dar'ya, perhaps with Denis who might even have lifted and thrown Alyona?
She is not afraid to try new things.
 
About the first question for the jumps, I think the correct translation is:

Q: Did you jumped today? A: Yes. Q: 3 Axel? A: No, I'm just 4 days on the ice.

Q: Did you fell today? A:Yes, thought while gliding.
 
Dude.....no!!!:curse:
Not now, at least.

I think it's good that she's open to change discipline, if anything will goes wrong with her career as a single.

She clearly has the potential to later switch to pairs and become the new Aljona.
 
I see it's a little misunderstanding here) The question about the switching to Pairs/Ice Dance was "Have you ever thought about switching..." So, Alena said she thought about it sometime, but not all the time.

No switching for AK. Her skating is the most beautiful in the ladies discipline even moreso than Gubanova and Stasya and Alena is just beginning and it's only work with Eteri a short amount of time. Who knows how great she can become.

I think some of the lower-ranked Russian girls who are lovely skaters but maybe not in the top seven or eight and their own country should move to dance or pairs when they're 20 years old if the handwriting is on the wall that there singles careers are going nowhere. But I can't see how our little Alena ever doing that because her singles skating is so special.

I don‘t think she meant she considered switching to pairs. Probably she thought about it sometimes, but nothing serious. I agree about Alena‘s skating, though. It‘s really special and I definitely look forward to seeing her again this week.

I just hope that she‘ll be fully recovered next season and doesn‘t jump before she‘s allowed to! She wants to study medicine, she should know that it can be dangerous not to listen to doctors and jumping too soon might aggravate the injury. And for next season, I just wish her health and... fair judging. I expect she might lose her PCS advantage, unfortunately in seniors PCS soon catch up to TES, even if the skaters aren‘t particularly gifted in the former... I don‘t know whether her health will allow her to learn the 3A but I definitely hope so. She‘s too beautiful a skater to lose due to unfair PCS judging resulting from the TES advantage of others.

Good point about how smart Alena is. I would think she would be smart enough not to over do things and risk further injury no matter what Anna and Sasha are doing. Apparently Sasha does not pull back much she is full throttle even in practice. That is risky business and Russian roulette if you will. I don't think Alena is like that. A lot of her career or any of these girls careers depends on health timing and puberty.
