AND HEADCANNONS:
Maya's maternal grandparents immigrated to Chicago from China in the late 1950s, only a few years before the birth of her mother. Her parents met while both studying at the University of Chicago and were married and expecting their first child by the late 80s. Once Maya was born, the family was eager to move to a less crowded place and moved to Fairford. 
Maya's the oldest of two siblings, a younger brother who was born a few years after her. Having to work hard for what they had growing up, both of her parents grilled into their children at a young age that in order to get anywhere in life, the school was the golden ticket. Because of this, she took school very seriously, and developed a love for it. She worked her butt off in school and obtained a scholarship to UC Berkeley, where she studied education, hoping to become an elementary school teacher. 
Living by the bay and attending such a profound research university caused Maya to meet her second favorite love after education -- the environment, the ocean, and sustainability. It was something she never took much time to explore living in Fairford. She started quite a few part-time jobs throughout her university years that allowed her to educate others on the environment around her: whale watching boats, junior naturalist programs, and environmental educators, and finding that she loved talking to teens and adults more, switched her major to focus on high school education. Eager to get back home and be a part of Fairford's own natural landscapes, becoming a high school science teacher at the same school she had attended was an easy choice. It allows her to focus on her passions - educating the rising generations about the things she loves the most. 
Maya met Ava at a district-wide meeting and the two hit it off pretty quickly. They both had a lot in common and went on a few dates. A few dates turned into months and then years, and then they were living together and Maya was proposing. They spend a lot of time outdoors together, have weekends and the same days off, and have their respective part-time jobs in the summer and still come home to each other every night. She's really happy.
Sponsors the environmental club at school, AND the gsa.
Has 2 cats, Dune and Pearl.

BASIC INFO
Full name: Brendan Alexander Nichols
Nickname(s): Bren, B
Age: 26  
Birthday: February 14th, 1997
Hometown: Fairford, Washington
Zodiac big three: Aquarius Sun, Aries Moon, Scorpio Rising
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Residence: Mountainside
Occupation: Writer & sometimes Photographer at Fairford Daily
PERSONALITY
Brendan has always been known as somewhat of a loner. He learned from a young age to expect disappointment, thanks to his unstable family dynamic. He resorts to drug and alcohol use to ease the pain and cope with life. He's not always the most pleasant person to be around, thanks to his sharp tongue and putting his walls up as a defense mechanism. Though if you take the time to understand him and see his walls drop down, you'll see that he's actually just a softie who just wants to be loved.
BIOGRAPHY
TW: Alcoholism
Mark Nichols had thought he met the love of his life with his first wife. Shortly after their marriage they went on to have two sons within a few years apart of one another. He worked as a truck driver, traveling across the entirety of the west coast for stops and deliveries. His job entailed long stretches of time being spent away from home, which put a strain on his marriage and family. Only a few years into their marriage, his wife had served him with divorce papers and custody of the boys. Mark was devastated and found comfort within whiskey. It was the only thing that seemed to numb the pain of the emptiness in his life. That was, until Claudia entered his life a few months later. She forced him to clean up his act and get sober. By December of 1995, the couple was married and gave birth to their son, Brendan Alexander Nichols on Valentine's Day of 1997.
By winter of 1997, the honeymoon phase of their marriage was already coming to a close. The couple started to slip into unhappiness and Mark reached for the bottle of Jack Daniels to numb the pain. He knew Claudia had been cheating on him with another man while he was away on the road. Part of Mark couldn't even blame her, as he knew he hadn't been the most present husband throughout their relationship. By the beginning of 1998, the couple had taken the pathway to divorce and Claudia moved out and moved on with the other man she had been seeing. Brendan was left with his father, growing up in a double wide trailer in a small trailer park on the edge of Mountainside. Within the next few years, Brendan's mother had gotten married and had two children, one boy and the youngest a girl, with the man she had left Mark for.
Brendan grew up visiting his mother and his younger half-siblings, but he always felt out of place and like he didn't belong. Part of him resented his mother for leaving him behind and starting a new family of her own. Leaving him behind with his alcoholic father who was absent half the time thanks to his job. It left him feeling abandoned and like he had never been good enough for anyone or anything his entire life. He strolled through life feeling like a loner with no real place he belonged.
This attitude stuck with him all throughout middle school and high school. While he had a few close friends he hung out with and started casually dating a few girls here and there. He never did much to excel in school, instead always scooting by with the average C's and occasional D's. For the most part, Brendan succeeded in keeping his head low and sticking to himself. However there were a few bullies around school who picked on him. They referred to him as "trailer trash" and occasionally even called him "trailer boy". He tried to ignore it at first, hoping they would tire themselves out and go away. It wasn't until one day at lunch when they pushed him just a little too far. Brendan swung in their direction, which resulted in an immediate trip to the principal's office, one week's suspension, and another two weeks of detention. It wasn't his proudest moment, but it gained him the reputation of somewhat of a "bad boy" and was the key to those bullies leaving him alone.
By the time college rolled around, Brendan had applied to a community college in Portland, Oregon. He was desperate for an escape from Fairford and a fresh start. He picked up a part-time job as a server at a local restaurant and saved up enough to afford a small apartment with a roommate. He and his roommate began hosting parties at their apartment and inviting their classmates or anyone else the word of mouth got to. This was the start of Brendan's own alcohol addiction. It wasn't a problem until he started staying up all night drinking, only to be completely wasted and unable to attend his classes by the time they rolled around. He did his best to get his grades up, but he only passed by the skin of his teeth.
Halfway into his sophomore year, Brendan met a girl in one of his classes and instantly became smitten. He had never really been in a serious relationship, as the previous ones had all been casual and fizzled out after a few months time. He wasn't sure if he could even commit to an actual relationship, given his trust issues and fear of abandonment. All his life, he had seen and heard about nothing but rocky relationships on both his mother and father's side. Why should he put his heart out on the line just to have someone throw it back at him as they walked out the door. Any time a girl would catch feelings or want more than a casual date or a hook-up, Brendan would completely ghost and move onto something less serious. But when it came to this girl, she had Brendan wondering if he was even capable of being in a committed relationship. The walls he always built up when it came to everyone else, started to fall around him the more he got to know her. Everything between them had been going smoothly for a few months. But when it came time to define the relationship and put a label on what they were, Brendan did what he does best...he screwed up.
He found himself at one of the popular bars in the area, got completely wasted, and went home with another woman. He woke up the next morning with angry text messages waiting for him from the girl. Apparently one of her friends was at the same bar and saw him leave with this other woman. Brendan knew she was better off without him in the long run. She deserved to find actual happiness and someone who could give her all the things he never could. Even if there was a small sting of pain that came with the lingering thoughts of what could have been, Brendan numbed it with the familiar burn of alcohol.
By his junior year, his dependance on alcohol worsened. His grades began to slip further and he began failing the majority of his classes. He was left with no choice but to drop out. When his mother found out, she begged him to move back home to Fairford and set him up in a special treatment center. He went through the motions to make this mother happy, even though he had no intentions to quit. Once released from the treatment center, Brendan still couldn't learn how to curb his addiction. If anything, he just got better at hiding it from everyone around him. His first effort to get back on his feet came in the form of landing a job as a writer and photographer at Fairford Daily. He had studied both journalism and photography across the course of high school and college, which came as the perfect training for this position.
Just last year, Brendan enrolled in Fairford's Community College to finish up the last few credits of his degree. It was yet another step to prove to those around him that he was fine and no longer struggling. His mother seems to think it was just a phase he went through in college and that the rehab facility "healed" him. The fact that she only rarely checks in on him helps keep up the facade that everything is fine.

tl;dr: (complete biography)
trigger warnings: obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and anxiety
Orlena Astrid Guerrero possesses a unique charm that effortlessly attracts people to her. You can try to hate her, but her kindheartedness and generosity has always made it impossible for anyone to dislike her, no matter how jealous you can be.
As a student, she has always excelled academically and socially, achieving top grades in every subject and actively participating in school activities, and even getting voted homecoming and prom queen.
Orlena's journey as a pageant girl began unexpectedly when she participated in a beauty pageant at a young age. Since then, she dedicated herself to perfecting her skills, spending countless hours refining her public speaking, posture, and smile. Her hard work paid off when she became Miss USA and represented her country in the Miss Universe competition.
In all honesty, everything you see about Orlena was the result of years of perfecting her facade, to make sure no one notices the cracks on the surface of the glass.
The pressures of being Miss USA took a toll on Orlena. Despite the glamorous experiences, she struggled with homesickness and the weight of public expectations. Returning home was different, as she felt the constant scrutiny and curiosity from her community, yearning for moments of normalcy without being labeled as distant.
Behind closed doors, Orlena battles with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). She keeps this struggle hidden, determined to maintain her flawless image. Hand-washing becomes a ritualistic coping mechanism, offering temporary relief from anxiety and easing her fears whenever she feels that someone might be seeing right through her.
Despite her internal struggles, Orlena remains ambitious and committed to making a positive impact. She channels her pain into her work, pouring her energy into her family's business and the development of her perfume brand. The world admires her accomplishments but remains oblivious to the silent battles she fights.
Orlena continues to navigate the delicate balance between her public persona and inner turmoil. Each hand-wash represents an attempt to cleanse herself of fears and doubts, preserving the flawless image she has crafted. Beneath her shining exterior lies a multifaceted diamond, burdened by expectations and yearning for true peace.
headcanon:
She is sometimes referred to as the Diamond of Fairford, especially 
Going to Paris is Orlena’s escape. It started out as a European tour during her tenure as Miss USA, but she fell in love with the city when it provided her the comfort she needed when Fairford–a place she considers her home–could not.
Whenever she is anxious, Orlena would wash her hands. There was a time when she was experiencing the worst year with her anxiety and she was washing her hands so much that they would turn rough and often blister.
Orlena earned her bachelor’s degree in business at Wharton School of University of Pennsylvania, concentrating in Business, Economics, and Public Policy and graduating Magna Cum Laude.
She is starting a perfume brand with her friend(s). She originally started it as a way to distract herself from being overly anxious and it’s also because she has a connection with a Parisien perfumery.
Orlena is not an animal person. Although she can consider them cute, she’s not entirely big on owning pets.
Orlena has a large following on Instagram, with a 592k followers. Although it seems like she often shares about her life organically, Orlena highly curates her content in making sure that her perfect facade was undisturbed.
digging deep:
“What’s it like, living in Fairford? Did you ever picture yourself settling down here or did you always know this would be your home?”
Orlena chuckled at the question, tucking a lock of her honey brown behind her ear. “I’ve always loved it there,” she said. At this point, Orlena had repeated the sentence so many times answer that she could no longer tell if it was true or just a well-rehearsed lie. “I spent my entire childhood here and this town was built by my ancestors, so of course I love it here.” If anyone were to dig up a videotape of her interview as Miss Fairford in high school, they would find her reciting the same line when asked whether she loved Fairford. 
“Although I spend a couple of years away for college and I constantly travel for work, I would always come back. It’s like this town is my center of gravity and I cannot help but just be pulled to it,” Orlena smiled. Suddenly, as if there was a glitch in her system, she said, “I’m not entirely sure about settling down here.” But then she caught herself and flashed the bright smile the town of Fairford know all too well. “I mean, you never know where you’ll end up finding love, right?”
“Top five songs currently on your Spotify?”
“Oh,” Orlena lookd away from the camera and started thinking, hard. “Why can’t I remember anything off the top of my head,” she chuckled, completely caught off guard by the question. “Am I allowed to peek?”
She pulled out her phone out of her pocket and scrolled through her Spotify. “Oh here it is, my top tracks for this month are: Photograph / Clair de Lune by Cody Fry, Skylark by Renee Olstead, Nobody Gets Me by SZA – oh, I love her – Let You Break My Heart Again by Laufey and the Philharmonics, and my all time classic jam, Love by Keyshia Cole,” she listed.
“It sounds like I’m going through a heartbreak or something, but I swear I’m not. These songs are just fun to sing to in the car, you know, like when you just want to feel like you’re in a music video,” Orlena laughed. 
“Are you a leader or a follower?”
“Leader, definitely,” Orlena answered without any hesitation. “I’ve always been a team-player, because I think I work best when I’m able to listen to everyone’s ideas and have my ideas be criticized so that we can sharpen it, but I am definitely the type to take charge of the discussion and making decisions comes naturally to me.
“It’s the little things in life; tell me three things that bring you a great deal of joy or put a smile on your face.”
“Going to Paris never fails to put a smile on my face. Maybe that doesn’t count because it is not a small thing, but visiting Paris is always a good idea,” Orlena said, her eyes glazing as she reminisced every wonderful time she had whenever she was in Paris. “Aside from that, I would say wearing my favorite perfume is on top of the list. It instantly makes me feel so empowered and confident that I just cannot skip my perfumes. I feel naked without it,” she shrugged.
“What else…” she pursed her lips as she racked her brain for an answer. “Oh! There's this small bakery that sells an incredible cinnamon bun. It's not too sweet and not too cinnamon-y,” she giglged at the lack of better term for it. “It’s topped off with cream cheese and some pecans and walnuts. It is just the best,” Orlena tried her best to paint a picture of just how delicious the dessert was. “My mouth is watering just thinking about it!”
wanted connections:
ex(es): I imagine Orlena would be the kind of girl who had a high school sweetheart or maybe someone who got away when she became Miss USA.
high school friends: Because Orlena was a popular girl in high school and she had stayed here all her life, I think anyone who would go to Fairford High would know her.
closest friends & confidantes: Orlena opens up only to a certain people and if she shares something personal, it means she trusts you with her life. There’s only a limited number of people she’d consider her closest confidantes.
business partner: One of my main storyline for Orlena is her creating a perfumery brand, possibly called Solene (up for discussion!), would love to have a business partner for this project of hers!
bad blood: Life’s always fun when we have just a little bit of drama! Although everyone seem to love her, Orlena must have ticked of someone or had a competition with someone from her childhood. Now that she’s back, a little tense reunion would be great!

Tumblr media
full name: geraldine marie wagner
nicknames: deanie
age: 29
star sign: december 29th (capricorn)
hometown: fairford, wa
occupation: assistant curator at the art institute
pronouns/gender: she/her, cis female
time in town: 29 years (away for college)
current residence: apartment downtown
general facts
if you asked Harris and Caroline Wagner to their faces if they had a child to save their marriage, they'd deny it. however, deanie was born after a terse and cold period in their marriage at the tail end of a year long separation (and rumored pending divorce) that was seemingly resolved by her birth -- so people drew their own conclusions
being a good chunk younger than her siblings, deanie grew up fairly self-sufficient (if not a little lonely). she was well studied and well behaved with many hobbies. she never rocked the boat or talked back to her parents for fear of earning their disappointment.
deanie had a talent for drawing at a young age -- she'd pour hours into sketches, which then turned to charcoal drawings, and then watercolors, and then dabbling in every possible medium she could get her hands on. she won several prizes for her art in her grade and high school years.
with law being the family business for everyone else,it took a lot of nerve to ask her father if she could apply to the royal college to study fine arts. harlan told his daughter that her talents were "pedestrian at best". gutted by the revelation, she left the application abandoned and attended brown university for art history, and her masters not long after.
while they were both attending school on the east coast, deanie started dating fellow fairford native everett chapman, who was attending yale for medical school. she moved back home with him during his medical internship at elite wellness collective and they became engaged after nearly five years of dating -- before he left to do his residency in boston.
deanie is currently planning her wedding while in a long distance relationship with him, working at the art institute, and trying to bottle down the feeling that maybe she's gone wrong somewhere along the way.
because she should be happy, right?
personality
+ curious, detailed, inviting
- obedient, cautious, analytical
fun facts
can speak french and italian, can also play piano and violin
huge phobia of open water
allergic to strawberries
has a white, long haired cat named meringue
the friend that reminds you to stay hydrated
favorite flower is tulips, favorite ice cream is black cherry, favorite holiday is valentines day, favorite movie is 'some like it hot'
current connections
fiance` everett chapman (npc)
older brother @rcnanwagner
older sister @ceceliawagner
childhood (former) best friend/future brother in law @tysonchapmans
future sister in law @gemchap
wanted connections
next door neighbor -- someone who grew up on the same block as deanie, probably her age, who she could play with and share childhood memories with
best friend -- probably someone she's been close with from at least high school and onward
exes/former flames -- probably mostly high school exes or summer flings from the early college years, since deanie has been in a relaitonship most of her adult/post college life
extended family -- other wangers or the acosta branch (if i'm following that right)
girls night crew -- would love to have a group of girls all around the same age who get together to drink and talk and gossip etc ( would likely be her bridesmaids)
i'm open to any and all other ideas you may have too if something sparks to mind!

Tumblr media
Name: Yun Minho
Nickname: Milo
Age: 24
Birthday: June 20th
Occupation: Free Lance Artist / Employee at Crafty Hands
Sexuality: Bisexual
Residence: Mountainside
Languages: Korean, English
FC: Lee Seung Gyu
Appearance:
Height: 6’3 - 194 cm
Hair: Black
Eyes: Brown
Tattoos/Piercings: None
Scars: Some on his thighs that he refuses to explain
Aesthetic:
If Milo could be a walking cherry blossom, he would be
Light colors, baggy clothes, sweaters that cover his hands, the color lavender, and mint, along those lines
Sometimes he wears glasses, sometimes he wears contacts, sometimes he goes balls to the walls and flies blind
Personality:
Gentle, Clever, Imaginative
Shy, Easily-Confused, Spineless
Bio: TW depression, suicidal thoughts
Minho was born near Incheon, South Korea but his family moved to the US when he was eight.
He learned to speak both Korean and English growing up because his parents wanted to give him the ability to communicate with his family that still lived in Korea and give him the option to return in the future if he wanted
Once they moved, his parents started calling him Milo after watching his name get butchered in school, and kids making fun of him
From day one, Milo was a brilliant kid. He was able to skip two grades going into elementary school, which his parents loved
It left him a bit isolated as the other kids were often ruthless and exclusionary, except for a group of kids who were actually kind of mean to him
He was not much for the bullying the kids committed, but he didn't do much more than stand in the back and watch. No matter how much he wanted them all to stop, he wanted to not be the target of the bullying even more.
This continued throughout school, though Milo distanced himself from the original group of kids once he realized they were actually quite mean to him, only to fall into an arguably worse group in high school
His parents noticed how withdrawn he was becoming, though they watched him for a little longer to see if he'd pull himself out of it - he didn't
By sophomore year, Milo was exhausted and spent most of his days wondering about what it would be like to die
His parents freaked out when they caught him drawing little comics strips that animated these inner thoughts and sent him to a private school for the rest of high school
Milo didn't think it would help, but he actually started to make friends, and find things he was interested in, and things started getting a bit better.
Once Milo got into college, UCLA, he practically disappeared. He didn't tell most people where he was going or why, and it was deeply freeing
Milo spent a lot of time discovering himself and who he wanted to be while at school and it softened him up quite a bit, while also building his confidence. Gone were the days of oversized hoodies so people wouldn't see him, and in were the baby pink sweaters that make him happy.
In college, he spent many parties slightly tipsy and exploring who and what he was interested in. He even had a semi-serious bf who helped him sort out what he needed to know about himself and made him realize he was capable of being loved
He started going to the gym more often to gain some confidence in himself, and now he's addicted
As soon as he graduated, Milo began looking for the next thing. His parents had moved from California to the east coast, and he didn't want to follow them. His parents are in New York, which was more of a city than he wanted to be in, so he began looking around.
A friend from his second high school reconnected with Milo around this time and told him about Fairford, so Milo decided to try it out
He's been here for two years now, still figuring himself out while designing his art brand
Connections:
Friends: You can’t go wrong with some pals
Enemies: Milo probably wouldn’t have started shit, but he is an easy target
Romance: He’s bi, he’s shy, and he will not make the first move. If he gets flirted with, he turns red from the tips of his ears all the way to his toes. Though, he’s a flirty, giggly drunk. Do with that what you will.
Shop Patrons: He works a lot of hours at Crafty Hands, running into him there is highly likely
Comfort Zone: Milo is bad about breaking from his routine, he will go where asked, but he has to be asked
The Flirt: Could be a joke or for real, Milo won’t know he’s being flirted with, let alone know if it’s for realizes. Once he does, he’s a cherry tomato at all times.
Gym Buddy: You’d never know it looking at him, but Milo is built. He usually goes to the gym alone, but maybe they made friends at the gym, or they think they can help him out. || Milo, Nat, JJ. Tyson
Fuck Buddies: This one is self-explanatory, let's be real

BIOGRAPHY | MUSINGS
character name: thaddeus icabod carter
nickname(s): thadd
age & dob: june 18th, 1996 (27)
gender identity & pronouns: male, he/him/his
sexual orientation & relationship status: bisexual, single
residential area: downtown
occupation: barback at the simple pleasures/drummer for asteroid cows
length of time in fairford: all his life
faceclaim: mason gooding jr.
FAMILY.
descendant of: delphine and kassius carter
mother: brandie carter (née stevens)
father: royce carter
siblings: tallulah carter (twin, 27), blake carter (32), older brother (wc)
TL;DR.
thaddeus icabod carter was born on june 18th, 1996 as the surprise fourth and final child to brandie and royce carter
despite not being a planned addition, thaddeus never knew anything but unconditional love growing up
though there was always a nagging feeling in the back of his mind that he was lagging behind almost, riding the coattails of his older siblings and their found successes while never truly being held accountable for his constantly abandoned committments and extracurriculars, as if no expectations were really had for him
just average in school, uninterested in sports, trying on new clubs and fixations only to discard them just as quickly–it isn’t until thaddeus enters his freshman year of high school that he finds himself enrolled in marching band that something sticks for the first time
what started off merely as a way to get out of running the mile every monday in normal gym glass manages to click with thaddeus in a way that nothing had before, placed on his high school’s drumline and competing in state competitions three out of four school years
his interest in the drums grew outside of marching band, being gifted a set for his fifteenth birthday, and thadd absolutely threw himself into learning how to play them outside of his school’s fight song (go bulldogs!)
graduated high school with no clear idea of what the fuck he was doing with his life, and as much as his parents loved him, their generosity towards his whimsies just about ended at paying for a college education he wasn’t even sure how he’d put to use
continued to fuck around fairford, mooch off his parents a little longer, working whatever odd jobs would come up as they came up, and playing the drums in a local garage band until one day, he was asked to sub in for another band’s upcoming show
comprised of past high school classmates, it was clear after that one gig that thadd was the missing piece they’d been looking for, a perfect fit. it was only after joining and being inspired by their frontman’s passion that he began to seriously consider music as a future
did it pay the bills then? no. is it paying them now? still no, though they are on their way to becoming what he considers “fairford famous”, so he barbacks on the side–the longest job he's managed to hold down
simply a very laidback, easy going dude, with little to no real direction, and as long as nobody brings it up, then he’s fine! it’s fine! everything’s fine!

FULL NAME: Tyson Chapman.
GENDER: Cis man.
PRONOUNS: He/Him.
AGE + BIRTHDAY: 30 + August 2nd.
LENGTH OF TIME IN FAIRFORD: His whole life.
HOUSING: Downtown.
OCCUPATION: Bartender at Poshed and Sloshed.
QUICK OVERVIEW.
Rounding out the Chapman family should have ensured an easy path to success for Tyson, with outwardly excellent examples for how to be a well-adjusted upstanding contributor to society on clear display from his parents who ensured that he was always surrounded by stability. 
That wasn’t the case.
The start of his life was peaceful, a mama's boy from his first breath, right up until her last when he was five years old. He didn't have the faculties to understand how an aneurysm could take her from him in her sleep, or why, all he knew was he was left behind in a home with two people who never showed him they were happy to see him.
Grief didn't managed to band the two Chapman boys together, rather it paved the way for what would be a slow descent into a lifelong shared disdain. The arrival of a step-mother and step-sister to the family home in the year following his mother's passing added further strain. Tyson didn't know how to process such drastic life changes in such quick succession.
Growing up in the long shadow cast by his older brother Everett had fostered a cold boy who grew into a callous man. There was a time when he had once idolised his older brother, wanting to be like him in every sense of the word until that affection had splintered into a venomous affliction due to emotional neglect. 
Instead of wanting to be like him, he coveted what he had, from his professional success to the adoration earned from his father. After dropping out of university in his second year of studying business and economics, it was clear to Tyson that his career path would be checkered and chaotic rather than linear and well curated like his father had always intended for him.
The man's disappointment has been easy to ignore, ever since he found himself a new home in a prison cell for embezzlement and money laundering just after Tyson's eighteenth birthday.
Unable to truly get a handle on what it was he wants to do with his life, he prefers to focus his excess energy on something else that holds his interest -- his childhood best friend and Everett's fiancee, Deanie.
PERSONALITY.
+ carefree, spontaneous, laid back.
- envious, vengeful, petty. 
BONUS ROUND.
tyson is bisexual, he came out when he was 16. 
while currently he has a regular position as a bartender at poshed and sloshed, he picks up shifts here and there at various bars as needed, as well as odd jobs depending on what bills he has about to fall due. it’s a temporary arrangement while he figures things out. 
he’s been figuring things out since his early twenties. 
had a complete mcfucking meltdown when he turned 30.
CURRENT CONNECTIONS.
everett chapman: older brother, permanent one-sided rival. ty’s villain origin story, basically. 
@gemchap: step-sister who turned out to be his actual biological sister. not complicated at all.
@deaniewagner: long-time crush, former best friend, current wife-to-be of his older brother.
@fionaosman: the 51 to his 50.
@rcnanwagner: friend / sort of looks up to him but would rather die than admit that.
@thaddcarter: roomie roomie.
@phoebebaker: fwb.
@tcriacosta: childhood homies to adults w weird hobby adventures pipeline.
@yunxminho: gym buddies.
@ljjames: partners in crime/bad influence on.
@nguerrero: former co-worker, vibey.
@eloisechapmcn: cousin thats more like a sister. #worstchapmans
@ashaisabelle: poshed and sloshed regular.
@aylinerdogan: current boss. 🫡
SPECIFIC WANTED CONNECTIONS.
current/former co-workers: as i said above, he sort of rotates around various bars and has probably worked in a number of restaurants in the passed for varying lengths of stints. 
a best friend.
barfly regulars who tell him the innermost details of their life/psyche when they get a little too merry.
terrible influence.
good influence.
someone who lost money through his dad's swindling.
childhood friends.
rivals/enemies/someone who just doesn't fuck with him.
exes of varying levels of seriousness.
fwb, hook-ups, tinder matches etc.
owners of establishments who've fired him for being the woOoOooOOrst
GENERIC WANTED CONNECTIONS.
connections wise he’s pretty much an open book right now, but some baseline ideas that can be springboarded off are:
friendly.
a best friend / ride or dies / someone who checks him on his shit (of which there’s plenty of recourse for rip) / childhood friends / pseudo-siblings / friends / drunk friends / new friends / former roommates / folks who’ve let him couch surf.
romantic.
flirtationship / friends with benefits / one time hook ups / tinder matches / unrequited crush (can be either way) / exes from high school / exes from his twenties. 
antagonistic.
enemies / former (best) friends / frenemies / rivals / negative influence / former co-workers (but combative.. u know) / people he’s fucked over in the past or has fucked him over.

TL;DR
tw: illness mention
happy girl who had a happy life in half moon all her childhood/teenage years, moved away for college and got married while in college, became a journalist and came back to town with a spouse and a kid only to find out her life was a lie and her family wasn't really her family, it all went downhill from there
HEADCANONS
she was a cheerleader in high school, probably prom queen too (🙄) and was in a crap ton of extracurriculars, probably did a lot of community service (which she may still do tbh)
has a kid who is around 7 years old and they mean the world to val, they may be honestly what's keeping her from a mental breakdown
great debater, she can argue for hours even if she doesn't really believe her own words, fighting with her and winning is nearly impossible and not to mention, tiring
although she is friendly and amicable with people, it is hard for her to let people really into her heart. however, once she lets you in, she becomes the most loyal and protective friend you could ask for. she would do anything for the people she loves.
she's almost never home. it is in her nature to explore (as every great journalist) so, every free time she has on her hands, she spends it roaming around trying to find new stuff to learn and new people to meet.
her marriage is suffering atm and she is not telling anyone but it is obvious, she just has a lot going on and she can't communicate that, there may be some oportunities for some people to get in the middle?
she does like having the control of things and can get annoyed when things don't go her way, she is also very critical, especially of herself. she is never mean, especially to those around her, but she does tend to be a tad judgy (most of it goes to herself though, so its okay)
guilty pleasures: home renovation shows and real crime shows/literature
may be self medicating with illegal substances.
more tba
CONNECTIONS
spouse - wc on main soon
best friend(s)
family friends
rivals
someone she can write an article about?
a group of friends that lunches every sunday, mimosas included
childhood friends
high school friends/enemies
exes (any type, the angstier the better)
one-side crushes
people she may flirt with every now and then who don't know about her personal life
neighbors, family, angst type of friends.... the sky is the limit!

MANAGED TO WORK TWO JOBS TO SUPPORT HIMSELF AND HIS FATHER AROUND CARING WITH THE HELP OF HIS NEIGHBOURS IN MANHATTEN AND HIS AUNT
HIS FATHER DIED JUST AFTER MILO TURNED 26, JUST BEFORE CHRISTMAS, LEAVING MILO TO SPIRAL ENDLESSLY ALONE
MILO SPENT THE REST OF HIS TWENTIES ISOLATING HIMSELF AND CUTTING OFF THOSE WHO'D SUPPORTED HIM THROUGHOUT HIS FATHER'S ILLNESS
HAD A FIGHT AND FALLING OUT WITH HIS AUNT WHO FELT THAT SHE DESERVED ANYTHING AND ALL HIS FATHER LEFT BEHIND AS PAYMENT FOR ALL THE CARE AND SUPPORT SHE'D GIVEN OVER THE YEARS. MILO EVENTUALLY AGREED TO THIS, AS THE GRIEF AND DEPRESSION SURROUNDING LOSING HIS FATHER HAD MADE HIM FEEL AS THOUGH HE WOULDN'T BE AROUND MUCH LONGER TO HAVE ANY USE FOR IT

HEADCANONS
AS OF MAY 25TH 2023, MILO HAD BEEN LIVING IN FAIRFORD FOR A MONTH
MEOWCOLM IS MILO'S EVERYTHING. HE'S THE REASON MILO WORKS SO HARD AND PUSHES TO GET THE PAIR OF THEM BETTER IN LIFE. MOST OF MILO'S MONEY GOES ON FOOD OR ANYTHING MEOWCOLM MIGHT NEED, OR SIMPLY SOMETHING TO SPOIL HIM WITH.

MILO LOVES A GOOD FIGHT, A THING HE LEARNED ABOUT HIMSELF SHORTLY AFTER HIS FATHER DIED. IT'S AN OUTLET, AN EXCUSE TO FEEL SOMETHING AND GIVE WAY TO ANY FEELINGS HE'D BEEN BOTTLING. HE HARDLY EVER WINS, BUT HE TAKES THE PUNCHES GRATEFULLY

MILO DOESN'T NECESSARILY HAVE AN AVERSION TO SEX NOW. HE STILL ENJOYS IT. BUT HE ISN'T ONE TO JUMP INTO BED WITH ANYONE ANY MORE. HE WANTS CONNECTION AND TO FEEL SAFE, AND NOT LIKE HE'S BEING USED
ONLY HAS HIS MATTRESS, HIS SUITCASE WITH SOME CLOTHES AND A FEW ITEMS, AND MEOWCOLM IN HIS APARTMENT. AS OF RIGHT NOW, NOBODY IN FAIRFORD KNOWS THIS, OR KNOWS THAT MILO IS JUST ABOUT SCRAPING BY. HE'S ASHAMED BY THIS FACT AND WOULD RATHER DEAL WITH IN SECRET THAN RELY ON ANYONE AGAIN AFTER THE WAY HIS AUNT TREATED HIM WHEN HIS DAD DIED
HAS NOT YET TOLD ANYBODY THAT HIS DAD IS DEAD, AND SPEAKS OF HIM AS THOUGH HE'S STILL ALIVE, AS MILO HASN'T TAKEN THE TIME TO PROPER GRIEVE YET AND MOVE ON
MILO'S RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS FATHER HAD BEEN A ROCKY ONE. OFTEN BLAMED FOR HIS MOTHER'S LEAVING, OR THE OBJECT OF HIS FATHER'S ANGER ABOUT HIS ILLNESS, THEY WEREN'T THE BEST OF FRIENDS. MILO STILL LOVED HIM, THOUGH. STILL ADORED HIM WITH EVERYTHING HE HAD LEFT

Appearance
faceclaim: Thomas Brodie Sangster haircolor: Blond eyecolor: Brown height: 5'11" weight: 165 lbs identifying marks: chipped left incisor, stick and poke skull tattoo on his upper right thigh (it's not great) clothing style: comfortable and casual is his go to - flannels and t-shirts, straight-legged jeans, high-top Vans
Backstory
tw: divorce, drugs, child custody, emotional neglect, stroke/illness, violence, cheating mention, parental loss
Aiden was born an only child in Tacoma to an otherwise seemingly happy couple. His father was a land surveyor and his mother a realtor, which meant he never had to want for a thing in his life. This also meant that he had been primarily raised by a nanny in his formative years when their jobs ate up all their time. Attention, of all things, is what he hoped for most, but it was hard to complain to anyone when instead he got every new game console and iPhone as they released.
When Aiden was in the end of fifth grade, it came to light that his father was having an emotional affair with a coworker. Although nothing physical had happened between them, it was enough to spur a divorce. After the ink on the papers dried and his mother purchased a new home, she took Aiden to Fairford and transferred him to the middle school there.
Moving to a new town meant leaving any of the friends he had behind, and in his new school Aiden quickly became a problem. Halfway through the year he already faced two suspensions from violence and destruction of property, but his mother did very little to rectify his behavior. A slap on the wrist, and some hush hush money later, not even getting into trouble earned him her attention. It never did look good for the realtor whose son was sending kids home with broken fingers and bloodied noses.
On weekends and every other Wednesday, he took a bus back to Tacoma to spend time with his father once he hit the age of thirteen. There was never an argument on his father’s end about not seeing his son, and his mother didn’t want to put in the effort of driving back and forth at the time. It was only after he was old enough to travel on his own. Although mentally exhausting, there was no animosity toward his parents, from him or between each other. It’s almost as if the marriage had been done long before that the sting of an affair in the making was easy to shake off.
This does not mean Aiden didn’t get into his own fair share of trouble throughout middle or high school either. Skating by with C’s and D’s in high school while in trouble for truancy and fighting any other classmates simply looked at him the wrong way. He also had no issues with destroying lockers or breaking beakers in the science lab, so on and so forth. He was known for running his mouth too much which led him to get into many physical altercations, so he learned how to fight to defend himself.
Around his sophomore year in high school, his father suffered a stroke that left him partially paralyzed. It put an end to his career, Aiden took it upon himself to help take care of him on the weekends he went to visit. He became a barback in a local dive bar, but also partnered up with coworkers to distribute and sell marijuana to leave money in his apartment after visits.
Despite his mother’s push for him to go to college, all chances were dashed when his math professor in his senior year refused to pass him. He didn’t want summer school, and in a reactive rage, Aiden got ahold of a bat from the gymnasium and shattered the wind shield to that teacher’s car. Instant expulsion left him the option of taking the G.E.D., which he did, so he settled in working as he had been and helped to support the house and bills for his father.
His mother been distant enough from Aiden she never caught on to where his money was going. His father passed when he was twenty-two from causes related to the stroke. The loss wasn’t horribly difficult to get over. Aiden did grieve for a brief period, became a shut in for a few months at all the resentment for not truly knowing his father as a person despite doing all he could to financially help, but in the same breath battling with the guilt over the relief he felt over it.
By the age twenty-five, his mother gave him the boot. Aiden relocated from where she lives on the Coral Coast to downtown Fairford. He has long since quit the drug selling scene and used his restaurant experience to become a line cook at Juniper Grill. He is going through the motions at this point, just to keep his head above water.

MEET JILLIAN
“What’s it like, living in Fairford? Did you ever picture yourself settling down here or did you always know this would be your home?”
“Well I didn’t know this was going to be my final destination, I guess,” Jillian answered, twisting a lock of her hair between her fingertips and averting her eyes as she pondered the question. Truth is she packed up the car she had gotten as a gift (from her step mother) for her 16th birthday, and drove North. Following the winding path of 101 for three days, stopping to sleep in rest areas, and once in a motel when she needed a shower, on the fourth day she drove a little more aimlessly, trekking off until a large ‘Welcome to Fairford’ sign greeted her, and never ended up looking back. Jillian had stopped in to find something to eat, and found herself drawn in by the quaint way the town bustled with life. “But the longer I stayed, the less I felt like leaving,” she finishes the thought while sitting up a little straighter. “To answer you other question, though, living in Fairford is pretty much exactly what you’d imagine it to be. Knowing your neighbors is nice, and like- the name of who owns your favorite coffee shop. It’s nice feeling connected.”
Tumblr media
“What’s your family like? Are you still close, or have you blocked all their numbers?”
Jillian stiffens imperceptibly, before scratching the back of her ear and laughing as nonchalantly as she could muster. “Not many number to block,” she jokes with a wave of her hand. “Dad’s dead, mom’s dead, I still talk to my step-mom from time to time, but she’s...” the assailing thoughts making it hard for Jill to focus before clearing her throat, “She lives in California, so it’s hard to stay close,” she excuses. It’s a good excuse, too, but not remotely close to the actual answer. “My siblings are weird too, I never really know what they’re thinking, even when we are in touch,” she deflects, though the underlying truth to those words are in the fact Jillian truly has never known how her siblings feel about her.
Tumblr media
“Top five songs currently on your Spotify?”
Jillian rolls her eyes and whips out her phone, “I use Apple Music, actually,” she corrects, before tapping the app and scrolling for a moment. “The last five songs I’ve added though,” she begins, eyes reading before a wide grin coming across her face, “I Am a Rock, by Simon and Garfunkle. Then it’s Hey Juliet, by LMNT. I like to sing ‘Hey Jillian’ because it still works,” she teases, and turns her attention back to read her phone again, “Cardboard Box by Flo, super catchy. Can’t Kick Up the Roots, by Neck Deep, and oh--” she trails off, having a soft chuckle behind her and before concluding, “And Fireflies by Owl City.”

BACKGROUND
born to college aged, aspiring star-mother , entertainment industry CEO la-father. father had a wife , mom was an affair. no contact with dad, received hush money. mom died when she was 4, came into father’s custody. new siblings. tense relationships. father expected perfection in everything she did from day one. her step mom was lovely, not missing a beat to invite jillian in despite the pain her presence caused.
was put in pageants from the age of 5 with no choice . jillian had ebbing and flowing relationships with her half siblings. winning titles was the only thing her father ever praised her for. after a few years jill had no interest in pageants, but was told it was “the only thing going for her” by her father. after a tumultuous end to pageanting years later, she was the only one of her siblings to attend boarding school starting at the age of 13, and was only asked to come home for christmas and summer breaks. it took her a few years to warm up, but it turned out her step mom was her biggest ally.
in school jill used her looks to get whatever she wanted, and had most of her classmates wrapped around her finger. she pranced around acting like she had everything figured out, the leader of her own little clique, it was the most powerful jillian had ever felt in her life. she lost her virginity at the age of 15 , and her reputation throughout school was quickly made. she was still wildly popular, but that popularity came with everyone’s assumption that jill had slept with half the school’s population (when in reality, the number was something more like 6 people.) after being devastated by the fact, jillian embraced it, and has since used her promiscuity to keep people at arms length. (she would rather sleep with you, than get to know you, because she assumes that’s all you want from her.)
her father died the week before jillian was about to graduate high school ... she didn’t return home and chose to walk with her classmates despite the fact she had little-to-no one in the crowd for her. packed up the small amount of belongings she had at school and moved to fairford.
starting over completely , she got a job at presents of the past. jill never really knew what she liked, her feelings always coming second to whatever duties she had to fulfil. but the owner is the sweetest man that welcomed jill immediately, and was overjoyed to express his joy of old trinkets, things of the past, and anything the looked like it held a story. it was the first time jill had met someone that made her so happy. she didn’t feel the incessant need to please him like her father , or the instinctual guilt for the reality of her relationship like her step mom. he was just him, and made jill feel heard, and seen even from their very first discussion on embroidered dinner napkins. jill did her best to keep the fact that she was living out of her car under wraps, terrified of feeling pitied, or that his thoughts about her would change. that arrangement lasted a little less than 3 months before jill was able to get her own place.  she had been ignoring all of her step mother’s attempts at communication since she graduated (and the death of her father or whatever) all those months ago, but jill finally felt like she was drowning and needed help and one day picked up the phone. her step mom got her into a nice townhouse on the coast without as second thought.
today she’s still (partially) being supported by her step mother, their relationship relatively unchanged from her childhood, visiting for holidays and speaking every so often, but the older jillian gets, the more she understands how awful her father was, and how drastically she had changed her step mother’s life. the dynamic between them can’t help but overwhelm jill with guilt sometimes, so she does her best to keep the woman at arms length, even though she’s the only family she has. besides from the owner of presents, of course, who she also spends some holidays with, evening joining him and his family for thanksgiving dinner last year.  
jillian absolutely pours herself into her work at presents, and her relationship with the owner flourished alongside her passion for the very same trinkets. as somebody with little family , jill was enthralled with the idea of keeping the history of a person alive , even after they've died. old photographs, toys made only of wood and cloth nearly falling apart, sewing tins full of memorabilia of a band that no longer exists. all of it excites jill.

IN CHARACTER INFORMATION
• FULL NAME: Octavian Bishop • FACECLAIM: Michael B. Jordan • GENDER: Cismale • PRONOUNS: He/him • SEXUALITY: STRAIGHT • AGE + BIRTHDAY: 32 + 02/24 • LENGTH OF TIME IN FAIRFORD: 20 years • HOUSING: Downtown • OCCUPATION: P.E. teacher at Fairfield High • PERSONALITY: Confident, charming, persuasive, arrogant, immature, indifferent
DIGGING DEEPER
Q: “What’s it like, living in Fairford? Did you ever picture yourself settling down here or did you always know this would be your home?”
A: “It’s not ideal, It’s – I mean it’s fine, but not what I had planned when I was younger. I try to make the best of it though.  I always thought I’d want to travel, live somewhere warm, where it’s practical to have a backyard, in-ground pool accompanied by a trophy wife. Things didn’t work out that way, thanks to a few things out of my control. Number one being, my mother getting sick and needing in-home care. This caused me to leave my scholarship at UCLA, and to finish my degree in Fairford.” 
Q: “What’s your family like? Are you still close, or have you blocked all their numbers?”
A: “It’s really just been me and my mom for most of my life. I remember visiting some cousins of mine in Chicago and Memphis when I was younger. Family hasn’t really been all that important to me, at least, not extended family.”
Q: “Top five songs currently on your Spotify?”
A: “I can think of a few of my favorites that I work out to.”
“Turn Down For What” - DJ Snake
“Come As You Are” - Nirvana
“B.O.B.” - Outkast
“Straight Outta Compton” - N.W.A.
“Genesis” - Justice
Q: “Would you say you’re easy to get along/work with? Why or why not?”
A: “I think most people would. What’s not to like about me? Intelligent, attractive – I’ve yet to meet someone who doesn’t like those traits in coworkers, teammates, friends, whatever.  It’s possible maybe, people who are introverted might not enjoy my company, but I’ve been known to help even the most reserved to break out of their shell.” 
Q: It’s the little things in life; tell me three things that bring you a great deal of joy or put a smile on your face.”
A: “Number one is definitely a good breakfast. French toast, pancakes, bacon, the works. Second is hitting a game winner at the buzzer when playing with friends. And third is definitely getting a girl to crack a smile.” 
BRIEF BIOGRAPHY: 
• Octavian was born in Chicago, Illinois. At the age of ten, his mother took on a job across the country, which landed them in Fairford, Washington. She thought it would be a good place to raise her child, and for her son to see more of the world, beyond just the inner city. At the time, Octavian didn’t care for the change, but as time went on, he genuinely enjoyed his new location. 
• In High School, Octavian was a standout in both baseball and basketball. His mother didn’t allow him to play football, which he reluctantly respected the wishes of. Despite being a bit of a “smart-mouth” as labeled by a few of his teachers, Octavian’s grades were average, despite opting to go out with friends rather than study.
• Octavian received a few baseball scholarships, opting to attend UCLA. However, after his freshman year, his mother needed assistance at home due to an illness. This prompted him to move back home, finishing his Education degree locally. This was humiliating to Octavian, having to return home after enjoying his independence in sunny Socal. 
• After taking a P.E. position at a middle school in the Seattle area, Octavian would later decide to take a job at his Alma Mater, Fairford High. He’s been teaching there for the past 2 years. He enjoys his work, knowing it’s one of the few subjects students actually find entertaining.

* — ✺ 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧' 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮 ; an introduction to olivia mae andrews.
ESTABLISHED in 1990; Olivia is a pretty nice girl all things considered. She can be brash and uncouth when she feels backed into a corner, but that's a side of her that's more or less exclusively reserved for her mother. She's loyal and the type of person who'll answer your 3 AM phone calls. In all honesty, she's just a very genuine, pleasant person to be around. She's always trying to see the best in everyone and she likes to believe that people are good.
BASICS!
nickname(s): ollie, liv, livie age: thirty-two date of birth: august 31, 1990 zodiac sign: leo gender/pronouns: cis woman sexual orientation: bisexual romantic orientation: biromantic residence: fairford, washingston (mountainside) occupation: bookseller at the book nook
BASICS!
BACKGROUND!
Trigger warning(s): mentions of having a toxic parent, cheating, parental death
Olivia was born into a wealthy family of charming hospitality and picture perfect smiles, the little princess in the small family of five until her little sister came into the world. Demoted to the dreaded middle child, Olivia quickly learned the ropes when it came to getting her parents' attention: all she had to do was to scream the loudest and push their buttons until they acknowledged her, a less than flattering behavior that never really went away as she grew up and matured.
As a kid, she was constantly on her feet - her sociability and curiosity to try new things meant she went through activities like guys go through Kleenex; she tried dancing (the poor girl had two left feet), softball (you're supposed to hit the ball with the bat?) and even enjoyed a brief stunt as an equestrian before she experienced a traumatizing encounter with horse ordure. It shouldn't come as a surprise that the blonde's strive to find something that she could call hers repeatedly ended in frustration and disappointment; by the time she'd entered her teens, she'd stopped trying in light of the never ending feeble attempts.
High school was an interesting period in her life. Coming from money and having looks on her side was a winning concept as far as popularity went, and she was a part of the upper tier of the Fairford High School hierarchy. However, 'always the bridesmaid, never the bride' was a self-fulfilling prophecy as she was second or third to the Queen B and lost out on the cheer captain title three years in a row (not to mention the prom queen nomination that almost landed her the title). She had more than many others could even dream of but that was never enough - not to herself nor her mother, who'd been reduced to a devil on her shoulder with her thinly veiled criticism.
Attention and positive reinforcement was her kryptonite, and when boys and girls started to hit on her with shitty pick-up lines and disgustingly confident grins plastered on their faces, Olivia fell for it hook, line, and sinker. Eventually the only time she felt genuinely appreciated was between the sheets or in the backseat of a car, and she kept chasing the high it gave her. Before long, her sexuality had become her main attraction and the only thing she thought she had to offer to the world. Not to say that she didn't enjoy the sex part of it, but it was very clear that the main catalyst behind her promiscuity were the sweet words and compliments that came along with it.
After high school, she moved to New York City to attend NYU. She needed to get away from Fairford, if only for a while, and college was her ticket out of the town she called home for so long, despite having little to no interest in pursuing a higher education. It didn't come as a huge surprise when she dropped out after the first semester and instead set her sights on becoming a star. She attended acting classes and did test shoots for several agencies which lead to a short-lived acting career, consisting mostly of "girl #3" credits and only the occasional speaking role until she landed a recurring guest role on a popular sitcom. At that point, she thought it'd be the start of something great, but beyond a few episodes here and there of various television series and a few roles in minor indie horror movies (where she almost always died within the first 30 minutes), the job offers were sparse. Four years of minor work took its toll on her interest in acting. When the enthusiasm and passion dissipated, she packed her bags and moved back to Fairford with a bruised ego and no immediate plans for the future.
Her dad set her up with an internship at his office to make sure that she didn't remain unemployed for long. During this time, she hit it off with his personal assistant and their instant chemistry turned into torturous sexual tension, hindered only by the ring on the other woman's finger. Getting involved with someone who was taken had never been her style; she was not a homewrecker, but the other woman made it difficult to resist the tension that haunted them every time they were in a room together. When it become too hard to resist temptation, they both let their guards down and fell into a habit of sleeping together, Olivia's conscience ridden with guilt every time she thought about the marriage she was most definitely putting cracks into. Because of their close proximity to each other, Olivia decided to quit her internship and picked up a part-time job at The Book Nook, selling books as her source of income.
The recent death of her father has sent her into a downward spiral. He was the solid foundation in her life and the only person that made Fairford feel like home; the struggles between her mother and her had been alleviated by his presence and now that he's gone, Olivia is finding it difficult to cope. Meanwhile, the person she seeks comfort from is the woman who worked the closest with her dad, and slowly but surely she's starting to realize that it's more than just sex that makes her come back.
RELATIONSHIPS!
ELLIOT ANDREWS, FATHER - They were very close. He made Olivia feel safe and secure. Olivia’s father was her rock. Without him now, she feels like she has nothing. Olivia was a daddy’s girl at heart and would have done anything for the man.
LILLIANE ANDREWS, MOTHER - Her least favorite person in the world. I touched on it briefly in Olivia's bio, but she doesn't have the greatest relationship with her mother. Lilliane expected Olivia to be the perfect-picture daughter she always wanted. Everything in her mother's perfect little life, and when Olivia couldn’t reach the standards her mother set, she was criticized and belittled. She no longer speaks to her mother due to the fact that the pressure she put her under caused her to suffer from anxiety attacks. Olivia’s currently looking for a good therapist since she’s still dealing with the impact of her words and the expectations she set for her. 
SIBLINGS - Her brothers and sister are one of the best things to ever happen to her. She’s much older than her sister, ten years, at least. But her brothers are only a couple of years older than her. She looks back fondly on the all the memories and drama that came with having siblings as a child. With her sister, she loves spilling out advice and spending time with her as her sister gets older. Her siblings are her favorite people.
WANTED CONNECTIONS
CLOSE FRIEND - Something very fluffy! They meet and hit it off right away, or not. Maybe it takes them a little longer to get comfortable around each other. They play stupid board games, cook/bake together (even if it may turn out terrible). Laugh at each others stupid and corny jokes.
BOOK CLUB BUDS - As an employee of a bookstore, she wants to start a book club. She's currently looking for members so if you've got a muse that reads, sends them my way!
LEFT BRAIN, RIGHT BRAIN - Olivia's other half. The two couldn’t be more different regarding their behavior and interests, but they somehow make it work. They don’t fight often, either, even if they aren’t the same in the slightest. The one thing they have in common is how much they adore the other’s existence.
TRIO - Like a troublesome trio. The three are always seen with at least one another. You can call them Charlie’s Angels, Destiny’s Child, or Phoebe, Rachel, and Monica from Friends. Something that resembles the friendships of the bold type and someone great.
BAD BLOOD - Olivia doesn’t have many enemies, but there is always someone out there in the world that will get on her nerves. This person makes her want to gouge her eyes out with a fork. Right off the bat, these two bumped heads, arguing about petty things like favorite TV shows and favorite foods. Perhaps it’s because they’re both natural born leaders and can’t seem to reach an agreement, or perhaps it’s because they remind each other a little too much of themselves. Either way, nobody understands their dislike of one another. 
CHILDHOOD BEST FRIENDS - They’ve been best friends since childhood and know everything about the other. They have a sibling bond, are overprotective of one another and almost attached at the hip. This person is the reason Olivia even came back to Fairford.
FAMILY FRIENDS - Their parents are really close so they spend quite a lot of time with the other. They used to be much closer, one is trying to rekindle their friendship and the other does not care.
FRIENDS THAT DRIFTED APART - Sadly, this person is no longer in Olivia’s life as much as she’d like them to. The two were once very close, but as their lives began to change their friendship no longer remained as strong as it once was.
THE OTHER WOMAN - Once Olivia started working in her father's office, she met his personal assistant and they hit it off. These two had a mutual agreement to just sleep with each other just to ease the tension, but eventually, they started to indulge in the perks of being friends with benefits by having rendezvous a little more than once. The other woman never made it clear about where they stood, until she mentioned having a spouse. It should've stopped then and there, but Olivia got too attached to them and now wants more than just sex. Olivia knows she should end it, but this person and Olivia talk day in and day out, tell each other everything, and trust one another more than they trust anyone else. They simply think they’re best friends, but as time grows on they slowly realize that the “protective” feeling they feel when one of them talks about another person, isn’t protectiveness at all. It’s jealousy. This is just the beginning of a whirlwind of feelings, and if you’re interested in this, I promise you we’ll have buckets of fun.
I'm honestly open to any kind of connections, whether it's friends, exes, etc.! Hit me up and we'll start something!
MISCELLANEOUS!
Olivia can play the piano, the electric guitar, the acoustic guitar and the drums. She’s currently learning how to play a bass guitar from one of her friends.
She can’t pick a favorite movie to save her life, but when it comes to television shows it’s definitely Grey’s Anatomy. It’s been her favorite show since it first aired, and she watches it every single day - even when the latest season is over, she will binge watch from season one until the new season comes out.
Unless she’s really in the zone, she can get distracted rather easily and by pretty much anything. Whether she’s with someone or alone, she’ll find something to entertain herself and get sidetracked if she’s really not in it.
Olivia loves taking pictures and capturing the essence of a moment in a snapshot. She prints out her favorites to hang up around her room.
Olivia's favorite thing to cook is breakfast foods. She and her father used to do breakfast for dinner whenever they needed a pick-me-up, or had something to celebrate, so breakfast foods have a special place in her heart. 
it doesn’t take much for Olivia to get attached to people. Although she has been more careful about wearing her heart on her sleeve, she still does get attached way too easily. She gets invested in her friends’ emotions, treats them like family, and worries about them even if they aren’t thinking of her.
Olivia bites her nails, always. Whenever she doesn’t have acrylic nails on, she’s always biting her nails out of habit. She doesn’t mean to bite them; however, she can seem to stop the bad habit.
Olivia absolutely must read. She has so many books that she wants to finish but she never finds the time to sometimes - so working a shift that's slow definitely gives her time to read.

Name: Mia Daniels
Gender: Cis Female
Pronouns: She/Her
Age: Twenty-Seven
Length of time in Fairford: Three weeks
Housing: Downtown
Occupation: English teacher at Fairford High
The Overview
Mia has moved to Fairford three weeks ago. She’s extremely excited to move here as she visited five years prior and thought it was the most wonderful place on Earth. Since her visit, she has been thinking about moving to Fairford and how she can finally settle down and call somewhere home.
She grew up in a busy household, living with her grandparents on her Mum’s side, her parents and her three brothers. Mia’s family is one of the most important things to her. Mia’s mother passed away when she was eighteen and she still hasn’t gotten over her death. She left home at seventeen to go to university to become an English teacher. She is the first person in her family to go to university.
Mia has two cats who are basically her children. When she’s not working, she spends her time with them. 
Mia is bisexual. She currently isn’t looking for anything serious, but she also will just let things happen, although it takes a lot for her to let her guard down. Mia’s last serious relationship was three years ago - her girlfriend cheated on her with her best friend and Mia caught them. After that, Mia hasn’t really dated anyone seriously or been close friends with anyone since then because she thinks it’ll just end badly.
She is extremely insecure and shy, she doesn’t let anyone in at first. She gets embarrassed easily when she opens up to people because she just feels like everyone is going to let her down or leave her eventually. Although, once she opens up to you, she is a ride or die and will be there for you no matter what. She would do anything for the people she cares about and will make sure they know she is there for them.
Mia wants to have more in her life than just her work and her cats and she hopes that Fairford is just the place where this can happen - somewhere she can settle and make friends and relationships that will last a lifetime.
Wanted Connections
enemies to friends/lovers
platonic soulmates
seem like a married couple
former best friends
negative influence
friends with benefits
