i'm actually quite glad i decided to add daxton to the blog because it's really allowed me to flesh out more of julien in turn. like writing their relationship and how they grew up together and how they both influenced each other was pretty interesting to me. when you think about it, julien could've turned out to be just like his father, emotionless and power-hungry, if not for dax's love and positive support. of course, while dax was fully aware of what julien's family, and julien himself, was capable of, he knew at julien's core that he truly just wanted to be better than that, better than the violence he was born into, and that made dax see julien as an actual person, not another weapon/tool to utilize. this in turn allowed julien to see himself for more as well.

dax truly was inspired by julien and his natural ability to lead, but julien was inspired by dax more. his kindness, his values, his beliefs, his care for others. even after julien's father faked dax's death, julien knew he couldn't shut down emotionally... that would dishonor his lover's memory. he carried his grief and simply allowed himself to feel it and process it even if it almost crushed him. this prevented him from going completely cold and it was this that ended the cycle the vernier family's possessed for years. now, julien does have a thirst for power, but this is only so he can take care of his people and ensure nothing/nobody can ever harm those he holds dear again like julien's father did to dax.

Kids were laughing in my classes While I was scheming for the masses Who do you think you are? Dreaming 'bout being a big star They say, "You're basic," they say, "You're easy" You're always riding in the backseat Now I'm smiling from the stage While you were clapping in the nosebleeds

This is not another story This is not another drill I refuse to be another number now, never staying down This is something real I'm a name that you'll remember I am more than just a thrill I am gonna be the greatest ever now; watch out I'm a force that you will feel

I'll be more than just a fable I'll be written in the stars I will never be too afraid to bleed, giving all of me Even when it's hard Oh, I started as an ember Who was meant for kerosene And now I'm raging like a fire, burning up Through everything I see

[ftmalik]

— && guests may mistake me as ( michael b jordan ), but really i am ( malik carter + cismale + he/him ) and my DOB is ( 01/01/1992 ). i am applying for the ( security guard + personal trainer ) position as part of the EHP and would like to live in suite ( 217 ). i should be hired because i am ( + driven, charismatic & genuine ), but i can also be ( - careless & cold ) at times. personally, i like to ( go out, be outdoors, watch action / horror films & play video games ) when off the clock, but that won’t interfere with work. thank you for your consideration! ( jess, again, pst, 25 ).

PINTEREST. 

quick facts

legal name: malik carter

status: single

dob: jan 1, 1992. 28, capricorn.

occupation: security guard & personal trainer. 

tattoos: tbd.

piercings: ears, one on each lobe & tongue.

extras: he is a partier, nothing hard core, no addictions — though some might say he enjoys his extracurricular a little too much. he’s very active — he loves the outdoors, but can also enjoy the night in too.

below the surface

tw: teen pregnancy, mention of abortion, abandonment, politics, political advancement.

malik was born to a young & scared SIXTEEN year old girl. she didn’t have an easy life, and her relationship with her parents only made it harder on her. hiding her pregnancy however, was easy — perks of having parents who don’t pay much attention suppose. 

there was never a moment where she intended to keep her son — her plan the moment she found out was to go for an abortion. it was only sitting in that waiting room that changed her mind. still, with no intention to keep her son, and the inability to turn to her parents — she was running out of options on how to handle her situation.

the night he was born was one filled with irrational and scared decision making. it was how her son ended up on the doorstep of a house in the most prestigious neighborhood in chicago. she had no idea who they were, and they would have no idea of her.

all there was to know was that someone rang their doorbell, and when they answered the door, all that was there was a crying baby boy, meticulously wrapped up in layers of blankets, a small piece of paper attached — MALIK, my king. momma loves you.

it wasn’t out of the warmness of their hearts that the carter family took him in that night. well it wasn’t out of the warmness of miss carter’s heart. but adrian, he saw that little boy and his eyes lit up like fireworks. baby, all our dreams are being answered here, that was his plead to his wife — they’d spent the first three years of their marriage trying for a baby before they uncovered that elizabeth couldn’t have kids of her own. 

the next year was spent arguing about how she would never adopt, never let another women carry her child, and how he wanted kids — no matter how, he just wanted them.  

adrian did convince elizabeth to keep the baby, and his name, in honor of his mother. adrian’s heart, filled with warmth and the excitement of the family they could begin to build together. but elizabeths was filled with nothing but cold, bitter, anger — her outlook on the new addition to their family being nothing more then a political boost to adrian’s growing career. 

his career did grow, and his marriage failed. the failing moment being one when malik was first learning to swim, and nearly drowned under his mother’s close eye. it was the maid that ultimately saved him. though his father only strengthened his protection when he filled for divorce.

although he grew up well off, his dad always encouraged him to follow his heart, regardless of what that meant.

he started working when he was fifteen, as an intern at his dads office. he has more business savvy then most business owners.

he hates politics, blame his dad. 

he’s very athletic, played basketball and football growing up. took a scholarship for his sports skills.

he majored in psychology, and is currently doing his masters — because he didn’t think the classes could teach him more then he’d learned through the actual business over the years and he knew psychology would come in hand regardless of what he did.

he’s got a bit of a hero complex, ever since catherine their maid saved him as a child.

that’s what caused him to take the security job with malnati three years ago. he took on the personal trainer gig as an extra because he loves to help people become versions of themselves they maybe never knew they could be.

he does like to go out and party when he can. normally on the weekends. but he also enjoys nights in as well, and those happen more often then not simply because he has so much on his plate.

he’s never been in love. though he’s dated quite a bit in his past, his college years have remained girlfriend free. he will tell you it is because he simply doesn’t have the time for it. 

of he’s a chicago native.

connections

give the man some friends, he’s been here three years. party friends, fun friends, just chill friends lol. just give him friends?

clients that he trains. maybe like three max? 

also if anyone wants to bring me a tessa thompson opposite for his best friends (since at least college) i will worship the ground you walk on.

[idhyukjae]

Helloooooo, as always I’m late to everything omg. But hi again! This right here is my newest son (& last), Hyukjae! You’ve seen me around because I play Taehee and Seokyung. 

Luckily! Hyuk is literally everything that Seokyung isn’t; this guy right here is very kind, very fun, sweet, fun to hang out with, you name it. He’s Titanium’s main vocal & I’m SO excited to bring him to all of you! Here’s his profile & his biography & I’m currently working on a few wanted connections & plots I’d love to get going for him. In the meantime I’ll reply to all of your very lovely messages & try to get something going on for him!

Below the cut a tl;dr about him in case reading his whole bio is too boring? So here goes:

Hyukjae is the youngest of three brothers, he was born in South Korea but when he turned six years old, he moved to L.A. 

Well, his dad decided it would be good to move. His fake reasons? To get better opportunities. The real reason? His dad was a scammer and feared he’d go to jail, so it was better to flee to the States than stick around.

Was always a very talented and artistic kid; loved auditioning for the school plays (and always got the lead role bc #talent).

When he was 13, he tried to audition for a famous tv show, but his father forbid him.

His mom got tired of his dad just messing with his dreams so they both decided to go back to South Korea, leaving his dad and brothers behind.

This is the second time he had to adapt to different cultures (first to America and then back to Korea) and had a really hard time dealing with it. But somehow managed.

When he turned 14, he auditioned for KJH but didn’t get signed. 

His mom didn’t let him feel disappointed, so she took him to singing, dancing and performing lessons. 

Thus, when his 15th birthday came around, he auditioned for Midas and finally got signed!

The company wants to brand him as the “cute all-american boy” and he’s really good at it, or you know, tries his absolute best.

The problem is that when he has to talk about his family? He barely does, and only mentions his momma.

This has created some sense of mistrust among people, so he has a large amount of antis behind him, always thinking he’s shady and making up rumors about him and his family. Say, possible “reasons” as to “why he doesn’t talk about them.”

He hates it, but deals with it.

He’s very sweet and kind but will punch you in the nose if he sees you being mean to an animal, so don’t???

Hyuk is very flirty and good-natured, so please shower him with love! (if possible??? or not, if you don’t want to then our muses can totes hate each other that’s fine too!)

Chapter 67- Healing Crystal Country

Chloe: “Hmm...fur coats?”

“...”

Chloe: “Out unless you’ve established it as your thing already. Summer hats off season? In once again.”

Vivien: “Hey, have you seen my black sweater with the weird collar?”

Chloe: ‘It’s over there.”

Vivien: “No...that’s not it. Hey, Chloe?”

Chloe: “Hm?”

Vivien: “What’s on your head? Are you exchanging floppy hats for weird sci-fi helmets?”

Chloe: “Wow, you really haven’t heard of Celestial Crown Cleansing yet?”

Vivien: “Of course I have! I’m plugged in! I just….wanted to know what you know about it.”

Chloe: “Well, depending on the different crystals you put in the emotional centrifuge, it stimulates the wrinkles in your brain so that you can think more clearly and experience life more purely.”

Vivien: :”I like to experience life pretty clearly, dear.”

Chloe: “I know! So just imagine what you’ll see when you’re Celestially Cleansed.”

Pierce: “You cannot believe what Izzy Fabulous said about Nancy Landgraab’s latest piece today at the gallery I-”

Pierce: “What’s ...goin on?”

Vivien: “We’re Celestial Crystal Crown Cleansing.”

Pierce: “Oh, I read about that, you know it’s just pseudoscience, right?” Vivien: “Whoever said that is lying and obviously hasn’t tried it. I’m experiencing life more clearly than ever.”

Chloe: “You ok, Hawkeye?”

Vivien: “Are you still sick?”

Pierce: “It’s just a headcold. I’m fine, and I definitely don’t need a helmet to tell me that if that was what you were about to suggest.”

Chloe: “Try the helmet! Seriously, I was nauseous all morning and then I put it on- now I just want watermelon and chocolate..”

Pierce: “Ew, no.”

Vivien: “Pierce! Did you borrow my black sweater without asking?”

Pierce: “Yes but don’t come in here!”

Vivien: “What? This is my room what are you talking ab- ooooh”

Pierce: “I just wanted to try it on.”

Vivien: “And?””

Pierce: “Aaaaand...my weird stomach thing is feeling a lot better, to be entirely honest.”

Vivien: “I knew we’d get you! Chloe! Chloe Look!”

Chloe: “ Ooooh my god.”

Vivien: “He said it’s helping his mysterious illness.”

Pierce: “Y’know, this is kinda...nice. Just the three of us.”

Chloe: “Totally! I feel like we’ve barely gotten to hang out lately!”

Vivien: “I know it feels like we haven’t hung out together or done anything in like....a year.”

Vivien: “Well, you did take off for a week. Where did you go anyways?”

Chloe: “Sulani! And then Windenberg.”

Vivien: “Wow, Dustin’s really treating you with that game dev money, huh?”

Chloe: “Yeah! Well, Dirk Dreamer actually took me to Sulani, then from there I went to Windenberg with Dustin”

Pierce: “Bit of a love triangle goin for ya then?”’

Chloe: “Sorta. I feel like maybe they’re just trying to one up eachother through me, but if it means I get a bunch of vacations out of it, then i don’t really mind. “

Pierce: “So you’re gold digging Glamma Opal would be so proud.”

Chloe: “No! I like them, Dirk actually just said that he could potentially see the possibility of maybe saying I love you at some point.”

Pierce: “Sweetie. Please don’t say that out loud to anybody else, I love you, but please. Do this for me.”

Vivien: “I got for realsies recognized on the street today for The Cute and the Confident. It’s really happening, guys.”

Chloe: “Aww, Vivi! I’m so proud of you!”

Vivien: “Right? I mean...I would enjoy it more if Veronica wasn’t there all the time, but I’ll live, I guess.”

Pierce: “You wouldn’t think there would be such an immediate need for a stunt double on a soap opera.”

Vivien: “That’s just it- at first she was just there for one scene but then they decided to make her my secret twin.”

Chloe: “Ewwww, did you tell them that you used to date?”

Vivien: “Yeah. They thought it was weird and made fun of us both a little bit, but said they were going with it anyway. They’re gonna do a bunch of mayhem where I pretend to be her and vice versa. It’s ridiculous- I mean, we don’t look that much alike.”

Chloe: “Ehh...you do, though.”

Vivien: “Pierce….”

Pierce: “Hmm?”

Vivien: “Your stomach is glowing.”

Pierce: “Fuck, not again.”

Chloe: “Oh my god, the Celestial Cleanse obviously isn’t enough, you need to go to the doctor!”

Pierce: “No!”

Vivien: “Why not?”

Pierce: “Because I keep getting these crazy fever dreams and I feel like I’m this close to my  artistic breakthrough.”

Vivien: “Seriously? What if you, like, die?”

Pierce: “Then they’ll say that I died for my Art- I’m not seeing the downside here, Vivien.”

Vivien: “You’re so weird. I have to go to work- two more days, man, and I’ll teleport you to the doctors myself.”

Chloe: “Ohhh nooo, we’re going to the Bailey party in two days!”

Vivien: “Ohmygod, you’re so right. I wouldn’t make you miss that, Pierce. Three days.”

Pierce: “Ew. Fine, I guess that my muse has a deadline. I’ll see you before the Bailey party, I’m locking myself in my room!”

Vivien: “It’s almost three, I gotta get to set. I’m about to go adopt a baby that my twin stole from my ex husband.”

Chloe: “Good luck cutie! Steal the baby really good!”

*Knock Knock*

Chloe: “Hey Wallace!”

Walter: “It’s Walter. Remember? You...called me Radar, because of MASH- I think?”

Chloe: “Yes! You’re the one my sister has a crush on, what’s up?”

Walter: “Did...she say that?”

Chloe: “Aww! You guys are so cute! Boop!” Walter: “You...booped my nose.” Chloe: “I sure did! And I’m gonna do it again! Boop!”

Walter: “Ooo-kay. Uh- is Vivien here?”

Chloe: “Awww!”

Walter: “Okay.”

Chloe: “Cuties!!”

*default ringtone*

Walter: “Oh, I gotta take this. I’ll talk to you later, just tell her I stopped by.”

Chloe: “Who still has a ringtone? Just put it on vibrate, man.”

Walter: “No, I like it that way- no, not you mom. Bye Chloe. No- not bye Mom!”

Director: “Vivi, Roni, I need to talk to you.”

Director: “Listen, goils, I love ya. I do- but you need to stop playin’ the goils on the show so...ah…”

Vivien: “Devastatingly real?”

Veronica: “So deep it would make the ocean jealous?”

Director: “Horny.”

Vivien: “Excuse me?”

Director: “Ya’r evil twins and ya’r always flirtin’! I know ya haive a history but I don’t think this is workin.”

Vivien: “What? I worked my ass off to be here! I earned this job, she is a snake that came in and stole my life! Like some sort of...evil clone! Damnit!”

Director: “See, Vivi, I love that enagy from ya. But ya can neva seem to chanel that at har!”

Vivien: “Ridiculous. Of course I can.”

Vivien: “How dare you try to take this from me. You have not worked a day in your life to become what I am and what I am is flawless, so you can look at me with those big, beautiful brown eyes and that...quivering pouty lip, but you won’t get me off, hot stuff, no ma’am. You can come at me hard with everything you’ve got and I’ll take it because I never step down from a challenge.”

Director: “...”

Director: “So you see the problem, then, right?”

Vivien: “Yup. That’s on me, I see it now.”

Director: “Loik, it’s not a big deal. We’ll just fiyah one of ya.”

Veronica: “Wait, what? I didn’t do anything! I’ve been completely professional!”

Director: “I literally had to crop every shot you were in to just ya face beecause ya chest was heavin so much.”

Vivien: “So...who are you going to fire?”

Director: “I haven’t decided yet. We have a couple episode til they have tah give the baby back, and one of ya will die and take the othas place. Who it is, remains to be seen. Now’s the time to impress me, ladies!”

Vivien: “Okay guys, We are at a defcon 10, do you hear me, this is serious. We need a plan, I need a big publicity boost so I don’t let go from my show. Aristocrat showdown, all three of us, we’re gonna go to the Bailey party, cause a big scene, end up in all the tabloids!”

Pierce: “Guys- can you do this out in the hall? I’m not feeling very well and you’re talking, like, so loud.”

Chloe: “Damn, Pierce-y, are you ok?”

Vivien: “You look like a monster.”

Pierce: “Thanks, Vivi. You look great too. You’re wig is on backwards.”

Vivien: “It is? Shit. Did I fix it”

Chloe: “Ew, why do you still wear those? It’s bad enough that you named them all and hang them up on our wall like roadkill trophies.”

Vivien: “Leave Samantha, Veronica, and La Fontaine out of this!”

Chloe: “What happened to Esteban?”

Vivien: “Bad blowout...it’s a bitter situation.”

Pierce: “What happened to you two talking out in the hallway?

Chloe: “Why do you have to sabotage everything I do?”

Pierce: “I wish you two had never been born.”

Vivien: “This is the Bailey Party! We’ve been waiting for this all year! Why do you two all of a sudden not care?”

Chloe: “I’m just...not up for a huge party, Vivi. I’ve been feeling weird all week, and obviously Pierce isn’t up to it..”

Pierce: “What’s obvious about it, Chloe?”

Chloe: “You’ve been glowing and rolling on the floor all afternoon, Pierce, obviously you should see a doctor.”

Pierce: “That is so rude. Fine. I’ll go to the party with you, Vivi, no need to twist my arm.”

Chloe: “What?!”

Vivien: “Come on Chloe!”

Chloe: “No, I’m way too tired tonight. Have fun- Pierce, maybe like...write my phone number on your forehead in case you pass out and go to the hospital.”

Pierce: “I’ll put it on my wrist.”

Chloe: “Have fun you two.”

----

Pierce: “So what exactly is the plan here?”

Vivien: “We’re going to go out, greet as many of our connections as we can-”

Pierce: “Do we...have that many connections?”

Vivien: “Duh. Everybody watches my show, they’ll recognize me. It’s on every single day. So, go in there, find all of the people we know, and convince them to go to our afterparty at the bluffs.”

Pierce: “All the way to the bluffs? Why?”

Vivien: “Because of the atmosphere! And I know that somebody else is throwing a party there tonight and it’ll all be set up and we can form a coup pretty easily.”

Pierce: “Why can’t we just stage a coup at this party.”

Vivien: “How dare you, Pierce. Would you try to take a party away from Jay Gatsby?”

Pierce: “Gatsby? I thought this was the Bailey party, who’s Gatsby?”

Vivien: “Remember? Leonardo Dicaprio.”

---

Chloe: “Hmm...I mean...I’m probably not, like...hmmm….”

----

Vivien: “Hey!”

DJ: “Vivien!?”

Vivien: “I knew you’d remember me! You Dj’d a party I was at a few weeks ago! I tend to stand out in the crowd!”

Dj Fliphop: “You definitely do.”

*Default ring tone*

Dj: “Oh, I should answer that.”

Vivien: “Who still has a ringtone these days. Just put it on vibrate.”

*bzzz*

Vivien: “Like that! My phone is on vibrate like a normal person!”

Pierce: “Uughh. Vivi, I wanna go home.”

Vivien: “We can’t! DJ Flip- that’s what I call him, because we’re friends- is coming back in just a second- he’s a fan!”

Pierce: Hmm...no. You know what- I do not think I’m alright.” *Thump*

Vivien: “Ahh!”

Dj: “Vivien? Ok, it’s gonna be fine, I’ll get Pierce out of here, you call the doctor.”

Pierce: “What….electric man...what do you want from me…?”

Vivien: “Thanks, we’re just gonna be outside.”

Vivien: “Hey, uh...how… did you know my brothers name, Flip?”

Dj: “Uh...becaauuuse...I’m a fan! I love you on the cute and the confident. And I love the Aristocrat story, y’know, classic tabloid stuff, heh.”

Vivien: “Right. I should call my sister.”

---

Chloe: “...ok...ok…ok….I can do this. I can handle this. This is fine. This will be fine.”

*phone vibrates*

Chloe: “Hello? Vivi, where have  you been I’ve been trying to call you all night!”

Vivien: “What? Oh, it was on vibrate I guess I just didn’t notice.”

“Unbelievable.”

Chloe: “Who was that? Was that a robot?”

Vivien: “Yes. It’s not important- Pierce is in the hospital, can you meet us here?”

--

Chloe: “Oh my god, is Pierce okay?”

Vivien: “I don’t know yet!”

Chloe: “Hi. What...are you doing here?”

Vivien: “DJ Fliphopi got Pierce out of there and gave me a ride. He won’t take off his helmet though, apparently he’s quite the fan.”

Chloe: “Can, um, can I talk to you, Vivi? Alone?”

Dj: “Yeah, I, uh...I’ll just be over here.”

Vivien: “What’s up?”

Chloe: “I think I’m pregnant.”

Vivien: “What? Holy shit.”

Chloe: “Yeah.”

Vivien: “Who’s the father?”

Chloe: “Uh.”

Vivien: “You don’t know?”

Chloe: “No!”

Vivien: “Okay, uh, one thing at a time, okay?”

Chloe: “Yeah...yeah.”

Doctor: “Excuse me, Aristocrats? You can go in now.”

Pierce: “Hey, guys…”

Vivien: “Okay, I gotta say...I didn’t see that one coming.”

Chloe: “Eh...I kinda did.”

Pierce: “I would’ve appreciated a warning.”

Vivien: “It’s...kinda cute.”

Pierce: “Sorta.”

Chloe: “Can I...hold them?”

Pierce: “Please, it’s so weird.”

Chloe: “Hey there, what’s your name?”

Pierce: “Oh god, I should name it, right?”

Vivien: “I mean, it’s your baby, Pierce.”

Pierce: “That seems like kind of a stretch.”

Vivien: “So do we just like...have this baby we’re gonna take care of now? I don’t think I can live in an apartment with two babies, you guys, there’s not enough rooms.”

Chloe: “Vivien!”

Pierce: “Wait two babies? There’s another one? Where did they put it?!”

Chloe: “No! I mean...kinda. I’m pretty sure I’m pregnant.”

Vivien: “RIght, sorry, I didn’t mean to spill the beans on your mama mia situation.’

Pierce: “So...can you take care of it, Chloe?”

Vivien: “Pierce!”

Pierce: “Unless...I mean...we could always...have a little gallery opening....show some other art and…”

Chloe: “Are you really thinking about putting your baby in an art show?”

Pierce: “I don’t know! I don’t really want a baby, I’m way too young for this.”

Vivien: “You’re like 35.”

Pierce: “I’m basically 22, okay?”

Chloe: “So what does that mean?”

Pierce: “I dunno...I could just like...drop it off at mom and dad’s house. They usually seem pretty on top of this stuff. ”

Chloe: “Oh. yeah.”

Vivien: “That sounds like a pretty good idea.”

Pierce: “Yeah, they seem lonely since we moved out.”

Chloe: “That’ll be fun for them. Like a present.”

*ding dong*

Lucky: “Hey kids! I wasn’t expecting you today, come in!!”

Pierce: “Weeeelll...I have a present for you! Here!”

Lucky: “.......Who’s baby is this?”

Pierce: “Uhh…”

Chloe: “Maybe we should reevaluate...how important...knowing the parent of a baby...is.”

Vivien: “You wanna know who’s baby this is, Mom? It’s yours!”

Lucky: “Um, ok, I guess we can take care of this little cutie...do they have a name?”

Pierce: “Nope! We thought that you’d want to!”

Lucky: “Are they an alien? Hey cutie...Hello….Roswell.”

Chloe: “Alien baby? Ghost mom! It’s a perfect match!

Vivien: “We’re gonna take off, stuff to do, soap operas to film. Love you guys!!”

Chloe: “You three have fun together!”

Pierce: “You’re welcome! Byeeeee, love you! ”

Thanks for reading! This chapter could also be called “How can I keep that alien baby and still make Chloe the heir since she won the poll” I’m sure Pierce will come around and do the right thing lol. Funny story about that- I complained on the official ea forum that I hadn’t gotten an alien abduction in a really really long time, in the next update they increased the likelihood, Pierce immediately gets abducted and gets pregnant, and I have to figure out how to deal with it. I love it. Anyway, leave a comment if you liked it!
