Personality: Extrovert, outspoken, hotblooded, lively, patient (except when “dealing with idiots”), hard-working and passionate. Harriet has always been rather wild “for a girl” according to standards of the time. She is brave, and as a child she wanted to do things that were considered being for the boys, like climbing trees, playing football and using slingshot. Enthusiastic and curious, Harriet enjoys new experiences and loves reading everything she gets her hands on. Enjoys singing and dancing, and is talented in both.

Harriet’s sense of duty and justice are strong, and she isn’t afraid of speaking up or acting if she thinks something is wrong. Harriet is outgoing even as an adult, but becomes more reserved after her experiences at war. Despite of her fiery nature, Harriet is very kind and has a tender side, that she shows especially if she finds someone worthy of it (aka you’re not an asshole). Harriet stays calm even in dire situations, is extremely resourceful and has impeccable survival skills, especially after her years in Finland. She is also loyal and will do anything to protect her loved ones and fight for what is right in her opinion.

Appearance: Bodytype pear/A. Oval-shaped face. Almond-shaped, dark blue eyes. Long, straight, blonde hair. Always does some kind of hairdo, except when she’s at home alone. Wears light makeup at work and when going out.

Harriet’s skin tone is fair with neutral undertones. She tans rather easily, but needs to be careful to avoid sunburns. Harriet has a button nose. She has “resting bitch face”, but smiles quite often. Her walking style is rather determined, and she almost looks like she’s marching - sure way to have people making way to her despite of her gender. xD

History:

Harriet is the middle child of Finnish immigrant parents (originated from North Ostrobothnia) and the first member of her family who was born in United States. Her father, Johannes, is a carpenter, and her mother, Elina, is an elementary school teacher. Their marriage is nonconformist; Elina is the daughter of an influental businessman, but still wanted to marry a man from lower social class, who on top of that is the youngest son of his parents.  Elina’s parents were against the marriage, but Elina didn’t give in and said the wedding will happen, with or without their blessing. Despite the rebellous background of their love story, Johannes’ and Elina’s marriage is a happy one.

Harriet’s parents decided to leave Finland in 1914, when they grew tired of Russification of Finland, with their 2-year-old son, Olavi. Like many fellow Finns at the time, they started a long journey to the land of promises, United States of America, in hopes of getting a better future there. During their travels they met and befriended another married couple, Harry and Edith Pesonen, who originated from North Karelia. Once the group got to the United States, unlike the most Finnish immigrants, they decided to try their luck in Los Angeles. Families Kaski and Pesonen became neighbours after Johannes managed to build both of their houses with the help of some volunteers.

Harriet was born four years later in a sauna Johannes had built to his family’s new home. Only help Elina had was her own husband and a midwife. Olavi was overjoyed for getting a little sister, and Harry and Edith Pesonen became Harriet’s godparents. Tho the Spanish flu pandemic casted a shadow on their happiness, to their luck no one from their immediate circle got infected. The Kaski family reached its final form when Olavi and Harriet got a little sister, Laura, in 1920.

Harriet also befriends the children of family Pesonen, Walter and Esther. Thanks to their neighbours, Harriet’s family has a small Finnish community far from home. They all speak Finnish with each other to maintain their skills in it. The family also stays in contact with their relatives in Finland via letters, and Elina’s younger brother, Tuomas, who as an adult takes over their father’s business and expands it outside Europe, is able to visit his sister’s family every now and then. That way Harriet knows at least one of her relatives outside of letters and some photographs.

At school Harriet is a gifted student, one of the tops of her class, thanks to being hard-working and curious child. Sometimes she gets into trouble because of her temper, forthrightness, “improper interests” (meaning activities reserved for boys during the era) and tendency to defend others and herself from bullies, sometimes with her fists. Some teachers hate her for that, but she does too well at school to get into more serious trouble than detentions, and enough teachers love her, so they defend her when they can. Harriet is also very fascinated of Finland and its culture and wants to learn everything about it, whether it is from books in LA Public Library, stories from her parents or things her Finnish relatives send over to them.

Education is very important for Kaski family, especially for Johannes, who wasn’t able to go to school for more than 4 years. He wants his children to have better chances than him and make sure they can educate themselves as much as they want. Unfortunately The Great Depression occurs when Harriet is preteen and it affects her future; her parents don’t lose their jobs, but money they were saving for the upper education for their daughters go up with smoke during that time to keep the family fed and clothed. Olavi is so much older than his siblings that the depression doesn’t affect to his education. Harriet must give up for her dreams to become a historian, and settles for becoming a secretary after high school, due to her being skillfull at typewriting and shorthand.

Harriet’s world changes drastically in 1939; Europe is becoming restless and Soviet Union keeps pressuring Finland into giving up some areas and renting a military base in Hanko, but Finland doesn’t agree. Kaski family fears, that if a war breaks out, small countries like Finland would be caught in the middle. Olavi announces that he wants to travel to Finland and join their army as a volunteer based on his dual nationality - if a war starts in Finland, he wants to help his birth country as much as he can. Harriet, who doesn’t want to be away from her brother, and wants to do something meaningful in her life, decides to join him. She intends to try and join Lotta Svärd organisation. Begrudingly Johannes and Elina let them leave, but talk Laura out of it, so they wouldn’t need to worry about all of their children.

In summer 1939 Harriet and Olavi start their journey to Finland. Olavi starts in the army and Harriet gets accepted to Lotta Svärd (thanks to her dual nationality and speaking Finnish perfectly). They are both nervous, because this is their first time being apart from their family and for Harriet it is her first time in her parents’ home country. Also meeting their relatives the first time either for a long time or ever is an experience for them. Everyone gives them a warm welcome, though, even their maternal grandparents who have in time come to terms with their daughter’s choice of a spouse.

Unfortunately Harriet’s and Olavi’s instincts are right, and Winter War starts on November 30th when Soviet Union attacks Finland. Olavi and Harriet are sent together at the front of Kuhmo along with their draftee and lotta cousins (a couple of their female cousins joined Lotta Svärd too). Harriet works as an air surveillance lotta which is one of the most dangerous jobs a lotta could do during wartime. Instead of leaving Finland after Winter War ends, Harriet and Olavi decide to stay, in order to actually experience the country in time of peace and getting to know their extended family better (plus preparing for possibility of another war).

The peace lasts only for a year, and the Continuation War starts in summer 1941. During the Interim Peace Harriet has trained herself to become a “communications lotta” (can work as a telephone operator, is able to use radio transmitters and - receivers, transcripts messages and reports etc.). Some time after the beginning of the war an officer arrives to Harriet’s post and asks for lotta volunteers to join his group close to the front. Harriet volunteers herself and ends up working at a top secret unit for the rest of the time. During this time she is taught to use a gun (despite of Lotta Svärd rule to not allow lottas to carry arms), because even lottas in that unit would be in danger. Unlike in Winter War, Finland didn’t send men from the same town to same divisions during Continuation War, so Harriet gets separated from Olavi and doesn’t see him for 1,5 years.

Harriet’s war ends after three long years when she hears that her brother has been seriously wounded during the Battle of Tali-Ihantala. She resigns from Lotta Svärd and travels to a war hospital where Olavi is being kept. She stays at his bedside for a few agonising days before to her relief she learns her brother will survive. Olavi has lost his left eye, so he won’t be sent to the front anymore, and after he is realeased from the hospital, the siblings decide to take the risk and start a dangerous journey back to their home. By some miracle they manage to get back without any mishaps (Atlantic Ocean was occupied by German submarines so travelling across it was very risky).

Harriet and Olavi arrive back in Los Angeles at the end of August in 1944. Lots of things have changed, themselves included. Some of their friends have joined the USA’s war efforts in Pacific theatre, so even though Harriet doesn’t need to fear for her life anymore, she still worries for her loved ones she hasn’t seen in many years. She tries her best to settle back in her birth country, which culture is so much different from Finland’s. After a few months Harriet gets a job as a judicial secretary at Spring Street Courthouse, as a first woman in the courthouse’s history.

When the World War 2 finally ends, and those who survived finally are able to return home, nothing is like it used to be. Trying her best to adjust to her new life and live with her traumas and rekindle the relationships with her friends she hasn’t seen in a long time, Harriet also manages to get to know some new people. In time, she will also cross paths with some detectives of the LAPD, and gets dragged into a mess that may cost her everything she holds dear...

Five facts:

Harriet is trilingual; she learnt Finnish, Swedish and English from birth (her mother is half Finland-Swede, meaning Elina’s other parents’ mother tongue is Swedish)

loves murder and ghost stories, and has been fascinated by them since she was a child

sometimes stands in for her friend Elsa at Blue Room

befriended some crows as a child, and nowadays a whole kin of crows in Harriet’s neighbourhood knows her and gives her presents

is a decent boxer thanks to her brother

Amnesio Christe pseudo. "Aggy" or "Whisper" (br. =¥°¢÷=£{€°€) – duotragonist of the "Notes of Phobias" and founder of her anty-fancist conspiracy

Amnesio is like a atom bomb or firework, she's loud, she's so chaotic, and that's why she and Piro are geting along so much. But, unlike Piro, who's even in serious sytatuatins burns bright like a fire, Amnesio's chaoticness disapears in the moment, when her friends can or are hurt

“Please tell me we don’t intend to sit inside all night, right?” He regarded from his spot as he watched his companion get ready to go. “It’s a Friday night and I don’t want to waste it fucking around in here — seems like a waste.” Not usually one to complain so much but this seemed like the perfect timing for it.

i started reading house of leaves today i just finished the introduction 👍 girl what is this guy talking about. also im wondering if the editors of the book are also fictional (like the fact that the author, johnny, is fictional) or if that is just the author (mark, who is real) (flatland did this where the book was written by "a square" but the editor is just edwin abbott who is the actual author)

Ladies and gentlemen please welcome to the stage SUBSTANCE ABUSE!

[just-an-enby-lemon]

Very silly thing but I have this Epic stupid hc where when Ody went to Sparta as a suitor (mostly just to watch the chaos) the only thing he knew about Helen was that she was the most beutifull mortal woman in the whole world.

So when they enter and see the whole Spartian Royal Family waiting he sees Penelope and thinks she has to be Helen as she is clearly the prestiest. At this point he still isn't in love. But he is pretty sure she is Helen.

So they keep finding each other and talking and Ody is soon pretty in love and talking all about how he knew Helen was gorgeus but not that she was funny and smart and the guys are like "wow he is already talking to Helen" because the king still didn't made proper introducions so Helen is only talking to the guys she really likes.

Then the official introduction between the suitors and Helen happens and Odyseus fully thinks it's some sort of test and is like "this is not Helen, that's Helen" *points to Penelope who is just there to cheer for her cousin and is pretending to not be disapointed the guy she was talking for weeks was here for Helen* and everyone else is like "what" and Helen is "no that's my cousin Penelope" and Odysseus just blurts out "but they said to look for the most beutifull woman around" Penelope blushes hard. And that's how Odysseus absolutely fails in conquering the heart of Helen of Sparta (and everyone is pretty okay with it).
