rose;

rose wasn’t often one to ask for help. her own stubborn pride kept her on a lofty bed of arrogance. but, she was (for lack of a better word) desperate. “would you mind looking over my resume?” the words came softly enough that they hung on the edge of ashamed. she pushed a neat beige folder across the table, staring at it expectantly. 

Claire raised her eyebrows at the sound of Rose’s voice and instantly nodded. She was always happy to help Rose out and she’d looked over plenty of resumes before. “Still job hunting, I see?” She asked, flipping over the folder. “If there’s ever a spot open at city hall, I’m still happy to put in a good word if you want it.”

ariel;

a lot of things distracted ariel. from shiny objects he liked to collect, to people watching on the not-so-exciting streets of redwater, ariel was always doing something and letting something else drag his attention away. which is why it came as no surprise when he found himself talking to someone and not being able to remember how the conversation started. he blinked himself back to the present, re-focusing his gaze on the person in front of him. “neat,” he said without knowing what he was complimenting, a faux smile on his face.

Claire wouldn’t particularly call herself a very big talker. She often preferred to listen, but she was just being friendly and, for once, she had a story to tell, so she’d decided to tell it. But Claire wasn’t oblivious– she could tell when people’s attention was slipping away, and that was exactly what was happening to the person she was talking to. She furrowed her eyebrows as he spoke for only a moment. “I don’t think I’d call my colleagues and I losing two months worth of important paperwork particularly neat, but I guess everyone has different opinions,” she shrugged in reply.

{ LUCY BOYNTON, 24, cisfemale, she/her, muse ap } welcome friend! you know, i just saw CLAIRE FOSTER in town. it’s good to see them. they’ve been staying in town for 24 YEARS and making a living as a SECRETARY AT CITY HALL. not too bad. i hear they can be a bit SHY, but COMPASSIONATE. so, really who blames them? i hear they’ve been thinking about DOING SOMETHING RECKLESS. good for them. 

hey hey –– this is my new baby, claire. i love lucy boynton. everyone loves lucy boynton, and therefore it’s fair that everyone will love claire. that’s that.

claire was born to a british mother and an american father in redwater, washington on april 16th 1922. she has an older brother who she loves to bits (who i’ll probably pop in a wc for at some point). 

her older brother instilled a small sense of recklessness in her as she grew up, much to her conservative parents dismay.

during the war, claire stayed at home and worked in redwater with her family. she got a job in the city hall working as a secretary and when the war ended, she decided to stay there, figuring it was good money and the job was simple enough. nowadays, she doesn’ love it as much as she used to.

her older brother, though, went to war and didn’t come back the same, as many people didn’t. claire often spends time trying to connect with him again even though she never really can because she doesn’t really know what he’s been through. 

she’s basically just a sweet, soft little ray of sunshine but she’s very quiet and calm and can be a bit timid at times, except when you get her out with the people she knows really well and she can get really outgoing. 

honestly, she just has a big heart and she loves to know that other people are happy. she’s very caring and always wants the best for people and sometimes that comes at her own expense. 

but the thing with her subplot –– that’s something she truly feels excitement about because it means she might actually be able to follow her heart for the first time in her life without having the pressure of her fathers status on her shoulders and the need to live up to her mother.

connections/plots!!

i honestly would love everything for this lil bean.

give me some really lovely friendships for her. people she can be kind of outgoing and friendly and lovely with. 

obviously we’ve got the subplot. 

and then something behind the subplot too – maybe someone that is the person she can follow her heart with when the other person shows up!! 

drama??? but maybe there are some people that don’t like her bc of her family and the image that she has to present. and that could be fun!!

basically, that’s my baby claire. i hope you love her as much as i do!! like and i’ll come to u for the plots!!
