๐ป๐ฐ๐๐ด๐ ย ๐ถ๐ถ๐ท ย ย : ย ย ๐๐๐ ย ย ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐. ย ย
NAME ย : stephanieย โstephโ gingrich
EYE COLOR ย : hazelย
HAIR STYLE ย / ย COLOR ย :ย straight, shoulder length dark brown hair, experimented with a couple of different streaks of colour in high school.
HEIGHT ย : ย ย 5โฒ7
CLOTHING STYLE ย :ย ย exclusively in jeans at all times. formal event? black jeans. during the summer sheโs pretty much only wearing tank tops to show off those drummer arms (deceptively buff looking, she is weak af). every other time itโs graphic tees, raglans and band tees, usually with a flannel or oversized button up thrown over the top and then a hoodie on top of that for winter. converse, or combat boots if she wants to add a little height. she basically just settled into her grunge phase in high school and never left it. if you see her not wearing a beanie you have witnessed a rare, almost mythical, sight.
BEST PHYSICAL FEATURE ย : ย ย her smile. absolutely adorable and incredibly infectious. also i love arm.
๐ป๐ฐ๐๐ด๐ ย ๐ถ๐ถ๐ธ ย ย : ย ย ๐๐๐ ย ย ๐๐๐๐๐๐. ย ย
FEARS ย :ย ย getting close to people and them leaving her, losing loved ones, failing at her music career, ending up alone, disappointing her friends.
GUILTY PLEASURE ย : ย ย cheesy 90s pop, dancing when nobodyโs watching, fruity cocktails, musicals
BIGGEST PET PEEVE ย : ย ย disorganization, being beaten at ANY game (sheโs a very sore loser).
AMBITIONS FOR THE FUTURE ย :ย ย touring the world in a band.
๐ป๐ฐ๐๐ด๐ ย ๐ถ๐ถ๐น ย ย : ย ย ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.
FIRST THOUGHTS WAKING UP ย : ย coffee immediately needed to wake up, planning out what she wants to say on the radio that morning, if thereโs a specific song on her brain that she wants to play.
WHAT THEY THINK ABOUT MOST ย : ย ย music - whether itโs a song she likes stuck in her head, or if sheโs thinking about writing something. daydreaming about what sheโd do if she made it big and had a steady career performing.
WHAT THEY THINK ABOUT BEFORE BED ย :ย ย her friends - the benefits of living in a small town is she gets to see and hang out with them pretty much every day and it always lets her go to sleep with a smile on her face.
WHAT THEY THINK THEIR BEST QUALITY IS ย : ย ย if anyone ever asked sheโd say her smokinโ hot looks - an easy way to deflect. what she actually thinks is probably her sense of humour - she finds herself funny and most people seem to as well. her actual best quality is her ability to listen to people and know what they need to push through something tough.
๐ป๐ฐ๐๐ด๐ ย ๐ถ๐ถ๐บ ย ย : ย ย ๐๐๐๐โ๐ ย ย ๐๐๐๐๐๐?
SINGLE OR GROUP DATES ย : ย ย group - steph gets nervous around girls she actually likes and a group setting where she can pull focus from herself makes her way more comfortable.
TO BE LOVED OR RESPECTED ย : ย ย to be loved, but sheโs scared of having to give it in return without a safety net.
BEAUTY OR BRAINS ย : ย ย bit of both, but brains add to the hotness.
DOGS OR CATS ย :ย ย cats. canonically will literally risk getting mauled to pet a cat.
๐ป๐ฐ๐๐ด๐ ย ๐ถ๐ถ๐ป ย ย : ย ย ๐๐ ย ย ๐๐๐๐โฆ
LIE ย :ย ย not usually, unless itโs necessary (usually to help cover for someone else). if you ask it of her though be warned - her pokerface is terrible.
BELIEVE IN THEMSELVES ย : ย ย it varies. she knows sheโs good at what she does, she knows sheโs hot, she knows sheโs funny. objectively she knows all of this but she always falters at believing that itโs enough.
BELIEVE IN LOVE ย :ย ย yes. sheโs been in love before and believes she could fall in love again. sheโs just hesitant.
WANT SOMEONE ย :ย ย yes. anyone.
๐ป๐ฐ๐๐ด๐ ย ๐ถ๐ถ๐ผ ย ย : ย ย ๐๐๐๐ ย ย ๐๐๐๐ ย ย ๐๐๐๐โฆ
BEEN ON STAGE ย : ย quite a few times, she loves being on stage and performing in front of people.
CHANGED WHO THEY WERE TO FIT IN ย : ย ย not really. sheโs never had the attitude of wanting to fit in with people who wonโt like her for who she is and her interests. she doesnโt consider them worth her time. but she does suppress some elements of herself sometimes so as not to turn people off.
๐ป๐ฐ๐๐ด๐ ย ๐ถ๐ถ๐ฝ ย ย : ย ย ๐
๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.

#badass dj? it's a no brainer | imagery#me looking at steph and i's clothing style: oh it's the same huh#this also sent me into a massive spiral on steph's true colours endgame choices like#i absolutely do think she's genuine when she says she doesn't care about seeing the world if it's not alongside alex#but it still breaks my heart a little that she's willing to give up her dream#something she went so back and forth on believing she was capable of achieving#that she already gave up once before when she didn't believe she could make it#because she doesn't want to lose alex#and she's not willing to make alex choose between their relationship and the other things alex needs to be happy#(and like the fear of losing your loved ones i feel is absolutely central to all the true colours characters)#(obvs everyone suffers the loss of gabe. ryan lost his mother pre-game. steph lost at least her mother in the storm - or chloe#gabe and alex desperate to reconnect after being torn from each other in the wake of losing their mother and being abandoned by their dad)#i absolutely believe steph would still be happy staying in haven because imo she does consider it home and would always come back anyway#but my girl my baby girl pls listen to your own advice#STOP THINKING ABOUT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE NEED AND THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU NEED#all this to say but yeah for the right person who steph can't live without? she drops everything for them even if it hurts#give me some prime angst material on that#doesn't even have to be romantic like she put off leaving haven because of gabe. because she loved him sm and he basically became her family#so anyway this is why i killed her dad because eh i see a muse with some fucked up attachment issues and think 'how can i make them worse'#long post#that's a lot of crying over steph for a friday lunch break
