𝙉𝙀𝙒𝙀𝙎𝙏 𝙋𝙇𝙊𝙏 𝘽𝙐𝙉𝙉𝙄𝙀𝙎
Alright, since I realize I haven’t exactly been as active on here recently as I would like to have been, I thought I would attempt to make up for it by letting you guys in on some of the newest OC babies I’m planning on introducing soon. I hope you guys like these little tidbits, and (even though I don’t have any of their intro posts up yet), feel free to ask me whatever questions you’d like about them!!
BAILEY TAYLOR, GLEE:
— Texas native who transfers to McKinley at the beginning of season two after her mother’s job is relocated to Lima.
— Generally your typical sweet Southern belle, but also fiercely independent and has a feisty streak.
— Well-set up to be popular when she first transfers, but quickly becomes an outcast after giving a tongue-lashing to some jocks after she watches them slushy Tina, so she joins New Directions.
— Generally sings country and pop music outside of the group numbers, but occasionally busts out a showtune (and does some country duets with Sam).
— Either a Tina or Santana ship, I haven’t quite decided yet.
CLARKE TALEB, TRIPLE FRONTIER:
— Her story is set in kind of an AU post-canon after the boys recover the stolen money from the ravine, where Santi officially retires and they all move to the same town close to each other (and also where Frankie doesn’t have a baby and broke up with his girlfriend because I just. Can’t really deal with that).
— Quite literally bumps into Frankie at a bar (and spills her drink all over him) and very quickly becomes friends with all four of them.
— A total energetic and social ray of sunshine who’s very comfortable in her bisexuality and active in her local queer community, and helps the boys come to terms with their various non-straight identities.
— The main singer at a local burlesque club, and KILLS it as a performer.
— In a poly ship with all four former Delta Squad boys, who are all also dating each other (except for Will and Benny, obviously).
GRETA DWARF, DISNEY’S DESCENDANTS:
— Daughter of Grumpy of the seven dwarves fame.
— Pretty much lives up to her father’s name; doesn’t put up with one bit of crap and is never afraid to speak her mind (which normally doesn’t make most people happy, but she doesn’t really like people anyway).
— Is definitely an outcast in Auradon and at school; the only people who actually talk to her at school outside of the teachers are Ben and her cousin Doug, who’s actually a little scared of her.
— Befriends Mal almost immediately after the VKs get to Auradon (they are truly kindred spirits) and decides to try and help them steal Fairy Godmother’s wand because she resents Auradon and how fake and falsely cherry it is.
— Doesn’t really lose her prickly streak by the time the Coronation rolls around, but does come to realize that not everyone in Auradon is so bad and she needs to let people in more.
— Definitely besties with Mal, but also strikes up unlikely friendships with Carlos and Lonnie (and kind of becomes Carlos and Jane’s unofficial protector since they’re both pretty quiet and she is. Not).
— Also an Evie ship because I simply have to give my beloved girl a girlfriend. <3
ISAAC HOLLIDAY, TWLIGHT:
— A boyfriend for my bi king Charlie Swan. <3
— A tailor who runs a clothing shop in downtown Forks - Charlie constantly brings his uniform to his shop whenever it gets ripped.
— Definitely suspects the Cullens of being vampires but can never prove it until Charlie lets him know about Edward and this man just jumps up and shouts “I KNEW IT!”
— Sweet but fiercely loyal and protective Gryffinpuff king. <3
— Definitely acts as a non-Charlie adult confidant to Bella and is the best stepdad when he and Charlie finally get together.
— Also used to have a bit of a crush on Carlisle and still gets nervous around him even after getting together with Charlie because Carlisle is just. So pretty.
LUCY SCRUBB, INDIANA JONES:
— A British archeologist working with American Army Intelligence who gets assigned with Indy to help him find the Ark of the Covenant.
— Kind of shy and socially awkward (mostly due to constantly being underestimated in her field for being a woman) but incredibly intelligent and observant and knows when to stand her ground and not take other people’s crap.
— (Also probably autistic, but, well, they didn’t really have the language for that back then. But she is.)
— An incredibly sweet and compassionate woman who would do anything to help people in need (but also tends to trust too easily, which is why Indy is good at balancing her out).
— Indy likes to call her Lou, and she pretends to hate it, but she secretly loves that he thinks enough of her to give her a cute nickname.
— A ship for the daring professor himself, obviously!
VIA WINCHESTER, SUPERNATURAL:
— (Yes, I know Winchester sister OCs are overdone, I don’t even care.)
— Technically her first name is Olivia, but she doesn’t like it and prefers to go exclusively by Via.
— Sam and Dean’s half-sister, fifteen years old in the first season, who was born out of a three-night stand between John and her mother.
— John didn’t stick around, obviously, but he kept tabs on Via and her mother and when the woman was killed in a car accident shortly after Sam left for collage, he came and got her and started training her to be a hunter.
— Immediately loves her two older brothers and is fiercely loyal to and protective of them, but shares a closer bond with Dean since she’s spent more time with him.
— Doesn’t like John at all, however, both for essentially abandoning her and her mother and for trying to turn all his children into hunters rather than letting them have normal childhoods, which is a point of contention between her and Dean.
— Despite her anger towards John forcing his kids into early training, she loves being a hunter and has a particular affinity for taking down vampires.
— A badass baby lesbian (who not only knows Dean is bi WAY before they even meet Cas but takes one look at Sam the first time they meet and is like, “Well, this one’s not straight either”).
— Might not have a love interest, or I might make another OC to give her a girlfriend, I haven’t decided yet (I’ll probably wait until I get a little further into the series).
Alright, that’s it for my more immediately upcoming OCs!! Again, feel free to ask me any questions you want about my newest babies!!

20 book challenge
@aliteraryprincess tagged me a while back!!
Hypothetically, you are only able to keep 20 of your books. Only one book per author/series. So what books are you keeping?
the name of the wind by patrick rothfuss- this is an obvious choice. i am bringing my 10th anniversary version. i love this book and its enormous. easy to read over and over again and full of mini stories within as well.
graceling by kristin cashore- full of action and character growth, a consistent favorite of mine. i never get sick of analyzing it.
spindles end by robin mckinley- lyrical and one of my favorite retellings. super easy to get lost in the words
kiki strike: inside the shadow city by kirsten miller- super fun and contains 98% of the useful information i know
beauty queens by libba bray- clever, funny, and ruthless in its take down of american society.
in the hand of the goddess by tamora pierce- i reread this book the most out of the series and has some of the best fight scenes ever. if im angry, i read the fight scenes and feel so much better
hold me by courtney milan- queer you've got mail but make it nerdy? your faves could never
girl gone viral by alisha rai- this isn't technically an ace romance novel but to me, it is. warm and lovely, this is the perfect warm drink of a book
in other lands by sarah rees brennan- every reread, i discover new details and i also laugh and cry. i can't not include it.
strange the dreamer by laini taylor- a big ole book to keep me occupied. fantastic characters and themes and writing.
elatsoe by darcie little badger- i have not reread this book enough times to be able to part with it
starless sea by erin morgenstern- it's about the STORIES
an ember in the ashes by sabaa tahir- another long book that i need to reread so i can read the rest of the series
bloodmarked by tracey deonn- alas, i don't own legendborn, otherwise that would be here instead
emma by jane austen- i havent finished this (it's been like 2 years omg) so if its one of 20, i might actually finish it, no?
dread nation by justina ireland- owned this a long time. have not read. see above reasoning
jane eyre by charlotte bronte-
refusing compulsory sexuality: a black asexual lens on our sex obesessed society by sherronda j brown- another book i need to finish (it's only been a few months and i should have one (1) nonfiction in here)
the girl who drank the moon by kelley barnhill- a new addition to my collection. its sticking around
red white and royal blue by casey mcquiston- an addictive book. gotta keep it
