YEEES more Maríanne lore! I'm consuming it like a good meal

Hello! I am curious what is Marìanne's relationship with Rocky? Also what is her opinion or relationship with the Lackadaisy crew? Does she have any thoughts about them and what is her job exactly?

Does Marìanne have a family? Does she knows about the Marigold?

That's all l could think of, by the way your oc is so pretty and I love that she has snake fangs (I do have another lacka oc that's base on a sliver fox and snake.).

Have a good day/Night!

AHH! Hello! Thank you for the Ask! ❤️ and thank you, she’s my lil snake (even if she denies it) and that’s awesome! I love your art style and how you draw your ocs, they’re all so pretty 🥺❤️ Below gonna drop as much lore as I can! (Of course it might change because my brain likes to keep adding on 🥲)

This is gonna be two separate parts just to space things out! Let’s start with some Maríanne stuff!

🐍🐍

MARÍ’S FAMILY:

Has an older brother with a 12 year age gap, his name is Estefan Villanueva (his name was changed it might change again). He took care of Maríanne when she was much younger. When he got older he found himself a husband with a kid. His future husband helped him raise Maríanne along with his own child.

Her parents are out of commission. It didn’t end well for them. Maríanne thinks about them sometimes but was mostly raised by her brother.

There are some extended family members in Mexico but some died during the revolution. But she has some aunts, uncles, and cousins still kicking!

MARÍ’S JOB:

Oh, yeah, it fluctuates. When she first arrived at Lackadaisy, she started working at the Daisy’s Cafe as a waitress. Taught Ivy the ropes when she came to work there.

Then to keep her mind busy, she becomes Mordecai’s assistant and does a bit of accounting (mostly in her head).

At the same time she starts to work out again and regains her strength, she catches the attention of Atlas. He put her as a trigger man but she always got hurt because she refuses to kill the enemies with a gun (this mentality won’t last forever) and only fights with her fists. She really tries Mordecai’s patience.

The last straw was when she took in a rival gang member and that’s when Mordecai insisted that she doesn’t join their trigger man ventures anymore. Of course, she is still brought along as extra muscle but only for negotiations, but she just cooks books with Mordecai for the most part.

DOES SHE KNOW ABOUT MARIGOLD?

Oh yeah. Yeah she does. When she finds about Mordecai joining them and betraying Lackadaisy, she’s pissed. Once she finds him, she tackles the hell out of him. After almost killing each other, they talked things out like civilized people (if pointing a shotgun and pistol at each other was civilized). They soon made a deal and allied with each other.

Onto her relationships!!

♣️

MARÍ’S RELATIONSHIPS/THOUGHTS Pt. 1:

Rocky 🎪🎭🎻:

As part of my “The Rattlesnake and the Jester” AU, they met on the road. After a few coincidences of meeting each other while Maríanne was traveling to Florida, they decided to stick with each other because why not, better than being alone. They do split off but not my by choice. Once they find each other again at Lackadaisy it was a joyous day!

They have a close relationship, always getting into trouble with each other. Performing together on the streets almost everyday made them in synch with each other, it frightens a lot of people when they mimic each other perfectly or say the same sentences at the same time. Chaotic in the streets and chaotic on the dance floors. Swear up and down, they can communicate telepathically by squishing their foreheads together. Their love is a little codependent (totally won’t backfire) but it’s a good one.

They act so stupid and goofy when they’re together, so much so it makes people underestimate them. Together they’re a dynamic duo and can swindle people in a heart beat with their combined charm. One moment you’re like “aww look how stupid they are” and next thing you know, whoops! Your wallet is gone. 🔥Partners in crime!🔥

Her first impressions of him: “He’s cute, funny, charismatic, weird, talkative, but I like it. I love hearing his frantic rambles and poetry, even though I don’t understand the bigger English words.”

Current thoughts: “I will die and fight for him (yep they’re getting together). I still think of him the same way but I understand his rambles now. I like joining in his chaos but I will pull it back once it gets too dangerous or it risks other people’s lives. He’s my safe space and wherever he goes, I follow. I don’t want to lose him again. “

Mordecai 🔪⏱️🔫:

Her mentor (Mordecai never agrees with it but it’s the truth). Back in New York, Marianne’s brother owned a shelter/soup kitchen where Mordecai and his family stopped by from time to time. Marianne’s brother hired Mordecai to be his accountant once he got to know him. Baby Maríanne always followed Mordecai around when he came to the shelter and watched him work. Despite being annoyed by this clingy little child, he’d let her watch because she stayed quiet.

During their prime lackadaisy era, it was no different. Maríanne would come into his office and watch him work or even help him (or tries to, she just ends up being more of an unpaid secretary instead of a fellow accountant cuz Mordecai is very picky).

First Thoughts-“I admire him and I aspire to be like him (people often wonder why). I try to adopt his menacing and stoic demeanor, but it never works. Next best thing is trying to be as agile and quick thinking as him. I really trusts in his advice and judgement. Often finding myself looking to him for answers but I’m not afraid to question them. He keeps me grounded and I’m grateful for the amount of times he kept my mind busy with work. Better than dwelling on the past. Occasionally, I fear him and fear for him. I don’t understand how he can be so cruel but I’m jealous on how quickly he can turn off his emotions. How does he sleep at night?”

Current thoughts: “Can I still trust him?”

Note- Think of Athena and Odysseus from Epic the Musical

Zib and the band🎺🎷🥁🎹🎻:

She loves them. They’ve helped her get through her toughest days and always went to them on her break. They’d sing and dance with each other to the annoyance of most. They f e e d into her gambling addiction (always tempted to gamble her house keys, cuz she believes she’s that good) and she always plays poker with the band. For fun she often plays their instruments, always reaching the trumpet more (iykyk). Marí always hangs with them until Mordecai has to drag her by the scruff to bring her back to work.

She’d mostly do some late night drinking with Zib and they both just wallow in self pity together. ✨Depressed drinking buddies✨ She’d often go to him to learn more about poetry and (before their reunion) would ask him to explain Rocky’s poems to her.

First Thoughts: “They’re fun! I understand why Mordecai refers to them as “lazy hooligans” but I always finds them as a place of peace to let loose. A bunch of talented cool cats! Deep down I want to sing with them on stage but the dance floor just calls to me.

Current thoughts: “They deserve better.”

Viktor 🔧⚒️🛻:

A friend but only talks to him on occasion. She know that Viktor pities her but she doesn’t take it to heart. Marí slightly fears him but sees him as a place to run when they’re creepy men tailing her.

First Thoughts: “Tall. Tall scary fluffy man. I find him incredibly intimidating but I want to be as strong as him. His unwavering strength encouraged me to get strong again. I always feel tempted to ask him to throw me at the enemies. Like a surprise attack! But he’d probably stare at me. I’m definitely going to use his stare as a negotiation tactic.”

Current thoughts: “I pity him.”

Sorry for the long post! Second part coming later today!

Wick x M!LocalPolitician!Reader

I'm back bitches/lh! And for my grand return, I did way too much research into St. Louis' city government. Look up the Board of Alderman, if you're curious. Anyways, hope y'all enjoy!

---------------------------------------------------

• You're father was a decently wealthy man. Not old money level of money, but enough for him to afford a nice townhouse in St. Louis, specifically Lafayette Square.

• It was also enough money to earn him good will, and a few financing jobs for American politicians.

• With that money, comes amazing opportunities for a kid like you.

• Enter the 1904 World Fair and Olympic Games.

• You attended them both, and it lit a flame in you.

• You saw the wonder in the world, and you wanted to make sure people could find.

• Naturally, you wanted St. Louis to be the place to see that splendor.

• You became a lawyer at first, running a practice from a building, using the upstairs as your home.

• You had a pretty good thing going, with money coming in, most going back into the community, and a good reputation among the locals.

• But then you ended up finding out about some, not so great news.

• Turns out most of the city's were somewhat corrupt.

• Granted, the corruption isn't what you were upset with, it was with the fact that they weren't  helping the people.

• This simply wouldn't do in your eyes, and so you set out to win a local office.

• Eventually, you got your wish, and became the alderman for ward 8 of St. Louis.

• It was during this time you first met Mr. Sable.

• He was a fine young man, and you do mean fine.

• You didn't even know you had half of these feelings until you saw him!

• It started out simply enough, with you inviting him to business meetings and lunch.

• Eventually you started hanging out around town, as friends.

• Even later, and you ended up continuing the "business meetings" in his bedroom.

• (For my ace besties out there, or just those who aren't into it, y'all are just enjoying the privacy, and nothing more. Love y'all<3!)

• Wick also had a lot of confusing feelings as your relationship developed, but hey, you two figured it out together.

• It took a while for either of you to get things really going, relationship wise.

• And it still is difficult, with both of your jobs requiring so much time.

• Still, you try to spend as much time together as possible.

• Even if it is under the guise of reviewing his company's policies, or meeting to get "a better sense of how to help the people."

• That second one was at least somewhat true, though.

• Yeah, Wick probably wasn't the best person to be going to for the general public's opinion, but it did help.

• Especially when he introduced you to the Lackadaisy.

• It was a nice little place, even if you did first visit it at its decline.

• Wick would've brought you sooner, but you were a politician, and prohibition was in effect...

• Luckily, you never bought into the "alcohol is evil" thing, so you were more than happy to share a few drinks to loosen up.

• On top of that, the Lackadaisy gave you the opportunity to meet some of the actual citizens of St. Louis.

• Granted, there weren't many, as the place was already drying up, but it still gave you insight.

• Insight which, with a little bit of nudging, and financial backing, from Wick, let you make a difference, even if it was rather small.

• Now that terms are ending, though, and you aren't sure about your reelection, you have a nice little back up plan.

• And that plan is to be Wick's "advisor," which should give you more than enough time together.

[dakotadraws06]

Ep 9 of things I missed during my first read of Lackadaisy:

Back at it again at Krispy Kreme:

I wanted to talk about Wick being a raging alcoholic cause I feel like a lot of people gloss over that fact constantly.

Mr. Sedgwick Sable, that is FOUR CUPS OF COFFEE! I’m surprised he isn’t dead from heart failure rn! And you may be asking “Dakota, what does coffee have to do with alcohol?” Well, considering that Lacy specifically said “again” when she mentioned him pouring booze into his coffee, I can safely assume that he probably poured some giggle water into ALL OF THOSE CUPS. HE EVEN DOES IT TO THE FIFTH CUP THAT LACY BRINGS TO HIM. No wonder he’s so exhausted, the coffee isn’t probably taking effect because of the alcohol.

Also I count this next one as something I didn’t noticed, but because it’s so small I didn’t count it as a second one. I just love Wick’s faces during the boating scene with Mitzi.

He’s so suspicious but he’s trying to hide it, it’s so funny.

Anyway! I’m excited to try and get back into these because I know this little series I’m doing is probably given the notes I received!

(Tagging @wickmitz cause Wick and Mitzi duh lol)

[lackadaisy-headcanon-supply-unit]

Sedgwick Sable romantic hcs with a male reader? Like I ain't saying an anthro cat is fine but gah dayum... He's fine

You know there's no shame in being attracted to these kitties. We run this little joint with no judgement--if you don't ask us for NSFW, we'll be happy to fulfill most any request within our abilities.

That said:

You both met at a gentlemen’s club one night. You were in a group with other tomcats, just going for a night out. Wick seemed to have no idea why he was there and was showing no interest in the lady cats (to the bemusement of his friends)

Whether or not you agreed, I’ll let you decide for yourself. Either way, you both wind up leaving together either to clear your heads or just head home for the night.

Yeah you didn’t head home. You went for a walk, instead. With no cloud of cigarette or cigar smoke to staunch your sense of smell and hurt your eyes, it was a lot easier to see things.

Such as how well Wick’s eyes reflected the moonlight. Ho boy.

Idle talk becomes more awkward as you both start feeling the effects of alcohol and maybe feel things that you shouldn’t be feeling. Wick decides to head home early, he offers to give you a ride home, you head to his car, get it home, park in the driveway and neither of you make it through the door

Turns out cars are great makeout spots. When the shift stick isn’t sticking into your gut, anyway

Things slow down for a while after that. It’s hard to tell how to interact with each other when you got far too familiar with one another less than a few days ago. Whoever makes the first move, I’ll once again let you decide; but there’s zero hesitation on the other’s part.

Wick is a mess in regards to romancing tomcats. He’s soft, he’s sweet, he doesn’t know how to flirt in a way that’s not body language (soft eyes, slow blinks, purring, arm or tail brushes)

Also if you romance him right back but harder he’ll have reason to try harder with you. Just don’t expect him to get forceful with flirting.

So many bad attempts at rock-based pickup lines. So many. S o m a n y

He’s brought you a bit of diamond that he managed to find after a blowing-holes-spree just to give to you. As a souvenir, of course. As chums. Pals. Definitely not romantic. Not because it matches your fur colour or eyes or personality or way of speaking. What? No. It’s absolutely for heterosexual reasons only (absolute nonsense)

He’ll go above and beyond to cover for you if cats start speculating on your relationship beyond romantic but in a not-fun teasing way. You’re always at his house? You’re working out a business deal. You took him to a fair? Tomcats can bring friends to fairs. He looks a bit scruffy after leaving your car? The wind mussed up his fur.

He can’t stand having to hide like this, but you’re worth it in his eyes.

He likes being petted! Scratch under his chin every so often and he’ll be purring for a good long while.

(Touch-starved Wick? Touch-starved Wick.)

[parfumieren]

Sables (Annick Goutal)

(This is a reblog with edits. I wasn't happy with the original and went in to make some alterations only to find that the post would not save with its changes. Please forgive my starting anew!)

Some years ago, I engaged in a happy email debate with a perfumista friend on the burning question: What perfume did author Edith Wharton wear?

Having read of Wharton’s sojourns in Northern Africa, I proposed a spicy attar purchased as a memento of the Tunisian souks. In contrast, my friend suggested “a sparkling cologne with the hot herbs of the garrigue… something, in any case, that would sort with her outwardly brittle and aspersive manner and severe prose style; with the wish for fresh water in the cut flowers each day in order to have the bubbles clinging to the stems…” With this gorgeous image in mind, I conceded that the author of Italian Villas and Their Gardens would have more likely leaned towards florals– and would have exhibited a fierce and exacting discernment in her choice.

Cue the segue to a second question: What would her fictional characters choose?

For this round of our game, we opted not to limit ourselves to era-specific perfumes. On Undine Spragg - Custom of the Country’s aspirational butterfly – I would have pinned Chanel’s Coco Mademoiselle. But within a month she’d toss it in the trash, flat-out furious to be stuck with a fragrance that “everyone wore”. My pal recommended the very virile Tabac Blond or any contemporary pairing of “icky girly candy-floss and man-eating chypre”– most likely blazoned with Paris Hilton’s name. She went on to say:

…not only would (Undine) have… preferred the celebrity brand to the actual scent but would herself have BEEN one of those celebrities… perhaps her fragrance would have been marketed as ‘Quinze Minuits’, to signify the evanescent and meaningless Town Topics fame for which she is so eager. She might even have been Warhol’s muse in a different decade…

Interesting food for thought. Undoubtedly, Undine and Warhol would have been helpless in the face of each other’s gravitational pull. And I, for one, would pay good money to witness the first meeting between Undine and Ondine– catfight!

Like most after-the-fact Factory fans, I regard the magnificently doomed Edie Sedgwick as the fifteen-minute Idol Supreme of that time. But Edie turned out more along the lines of The House of Mirth’s Lily Bart– a tragic heroine bred to be rich and ornamental but condemned to failure by the total absence of real-life coping skills. Just as Edie lived and died in a fog of Fracas, Lily would have exhaled her last breath in Serge Lutens’ Tubéreuse Criminelle… if that deathly (and now discontinued) masterpiece hadn’t been too rich for her blood.

No, Undine Spragg would be too clever to fall into one of Edie/Lily’s bottomless pits. I envision her as more the Angie Bowie type– shrewd, opportunistic, perennially on the make. I briefly considered Jicky for her, but something tells me she’d want something exclusive—not to mention expensive enough to bankrupt all three of her husbands. (Would Clive Christian’s No. 1 suffice? It’s got a real live diamond on the bottle!)

Arriving at Ellen Olenska - the timeless iconoclast of The Age of Innocence - the game grew more serious, quite in keeping with its subject. Would a daughter of Old New York opt for simple floral modesty, or would marriage to a European count lure her over to rich amber and spices? I suggested we split the difference and opt for helichrysum—that austere bloom known to perfumers as immortelle.

I’ve read any number of reviews comparing the scent of immortelle to maple syrup. (Which grade? Dark amber? Grade C Non-Commercial?) Some liken it to fenugreek seeds– which, coincidentally, are used in the production of artificial maple flavoring. (The mysterious pancake-breakfast smell that wafted occasionally over Manhattan some years ago was eventually traced to a fenugreek processing plant in North Jersey). Add to this a powdery, ground-spice quality which evokes dried blossoms on long, silvery stems, collecting a century’s worth of dust before their fragrance fades to nothing.

Above all, immortelle exudes the smell of burnt sugar– smoky, unsettling, and inedible. If you heat simple syrup past the moment of caramelization, it turns black and tarry in the pan. At that point, you will find that there is no sweetness left in the sugar at all. It is bitter as hell and (when cool) brittle enough to cut your tongue, with an odor at once venomous and addictive.

Which brings me (at long last!) to Sables by Annick Goutal.

I have been given to understand that Goutal formulated Sables as a tribute to her husband, but its combination of tenacity and delicacy perfectly suits Countess Olenska, a woman both prized and excoriated for the virile independence of her nature.  Here’s a sample, culled from a conversation between her and Newland Archer:

“I think you’re the most honest woman I ever met!” he exclaimed. “Oh, no– but probably one of the least fussy,” she answered, a smile in her voice. “Call it what you like: you look at things as they are.” “Ah– I’ve had to. I’ve had to look at the Gorgon.” “Well– it hasn’t blinded you! You’ve seen that she’s just an old bogey like all the others.” “She doesn’t blind one; but she dries up one’s tears.”

Sables has an antique quality to it, like a piece of amber crushed velvet taken from a costume of the Belle Epoque– something which sits softly on the skin and reminds you of its presence only in whispers. However, all that softness and luxury hides one mother of a backbone. Those looking for dessert in a spray bottle must look elsewhere: Sables is a resolutely bitter scent with no ameliorating sweetness, unadorned by peripheral notes that might detract from its charred majesty. Less is more: Annick Goutal did well to let immortelle stand on its own.

A word must also be said for Sables’ staying power. Rarely will one find a perfume with such welcome tenacity. (Usually, it’s the ones that make your gorge rise or your eyes water that refuse to go away.) Sables exhibits amazing persistence, lasting all throughout the day and night with no need for second applications. And yet, at no time does its scent become boring or tedious. This is a perfume for life.

Ideal for a woman who has survived the fire and carries the aching heart to prove it.

Scent Elements: Immortelle, cinnamon, Mysore sandalwood, Indonesian and Madagascar pepper, smoked tea, amber

AHH

MARÍ’S RELATIONSHIPS PT 2.:

Ivy 💃🌼👒:

Very fond of her! Maríanne claims that she is Ivy’s self-proclaimed mentor (seriously idk why she is like this). She trained Ivy when she first started working at the cafe. In their free time, Maríanne will offer to teach Ivy how to box and how to shoot a shotgun (like how Delilah taught her back in New York). When Ivy agrees, Maríanne gains a new training buddy and Ivy gets another shopping buddy! Ivy introduces her to the latest trends and they often hangout when they’re not training. Marí will try to throw in some life lessons during the hangouts but Ivy would be too busy on choosing between two different kinds of hats.

Thoughts: “it’s a tough world out there! In this dangerous life, I have to teach this young girl how to defend herself!”

Current: “I’m very proud of her but what is she doing?!”

Mitzi 🍷💸🦚:

She enjoys her company and may or may not see her as a slight mother figure! When Maríanne first arrived to Lackadaisy, Mitzi pitied her like Viktor. Mitzi would take care of Marí while she was recovering from her wounds bringing her food, fresh bandages, and pain medicine when Mordecai isn’t able to. She’d always dote on Maríanne and try to cheer her up as best as she could. Simply distracting Marí from her worries by asking about her journey out on the streets and about Rocky. Mitzi introduced Marí to Zib and the band once she heard about her street performance. She definitely had lend a hand in convincing Atlas to let Maríanne stay at Lackadaisy. As Marí healed, Mitzi would join in on Ivy and Marianne’s shopping sprees. Maríanne finds Mitzi very sweet and comforting, (sometimes getting unsolicited dating advice from her) and deeply cares about her.

Thoughts: “She’s very pretty, her soft voice reminds me of my mother sometimes. I don’t like to think too far back but she makes sure that I’m having a good day. I feel like I owe more to her than I do Atlas.”

Current: ���I trust she could make it work and rebuild it. But from what Mordecai told me…her chances feel slim. I’ll do what I can to give her hand, I might’ve left Lackadaisy but I won’t abandon it completely. It was my home because of her.”

Horatio🐀♣️:

Not too close, but a casual friendship. Maríanne is very polite with him, indulging in some small talk and catching up on life. When the cafe is empty, Maríanne helps Horatio clean up and prepare the speakeasy for the night. They also feed the rats together. Fun fact: Marí loves rodents!

Thoughts: “Great man! Respects the rats and stands firmly at the door. Rocky refers to him as someone who protects the front gates of our a great kingdom. He’s our mighty guard!”

Wick🪨🥃💵:

Doesn’t really interest her. He’s just another rich man in her eyes. When they do talk, she finds him pleasant and less obnoxious. So she’s okay with him.

Thoughts: “Rocks and bugs? Interesting, I guess?”

Freckle🔫🪶🥪:

Heard about him through Rocky, so she has a very high liking towards him. When Marí meets him, she’s very enthusiastic. Doesn’t understand why he finds her so intimidating or why he’s so shy? Isn’t he Rocky’s cousin? When she sees his trigger happy mode, then she gets her answer. Sees that being a trigger man is his calling, although he is too reckless, she knows enemies will never see it coming due to his innocent face. Marí will care about him and take care of him for Rocky’s sake but is a little threatened by him.

Thoughts: “Great asset to Lackadaisy. I have my eye on him though, he maybe Rocky’s cousin but who knows what else he’s capable of.”

Atlas🪦:

If it weren’t for him, she’d be dead. Maríanne is indebted to him but doesn’t see him as a loving figure more like a mystery. She knows that he keeps a suspicious eye on her constantly when she first arrived, but there wasn’t malice just protectiveness over what’s his. It was better than her previous situation and was thoroughly surprised when he considered her to be a trigger man or the fact that he let her stay. Maríanne knew how much Mordecai looked up to Atlas, so she trusted that he was a good man. Deep down…she always felt something was off but was just happy to find a secure place.

Thoughts: “I was curious to know more about him but with people like him, it’s best to stop digging. When he died, I was devastated but not just for the death of ‘the Atlas May’ but the death of Lackadaisy. A slow, unfair death…”

🐍🐍

THATS ALL FOLKS!! Thank you again @mivanti03 for the questions! ❤️✨

I’ve been waiting for someone to ask that! AH! Sorry it took so long but I hope I answered your questions well ❤️ Thank you! :>

Hello! I am curious what is Marìanne's relationship with Rocky? Also what is her opinion or relationship with the Lackadaisy crew? Does she have any thoughts about them and what is her job exactly?

Does Marìanne have a family? Does she knows about the Marigold?

That's all l could think of, by the way your oc is so pretty and I love that she has snake fangs (I do have another lacka oc that's base on a sliver fox and snake.).

Have a good day/Night!

AHH! Hello! Thank you for the Ask! ❤️ and thank you, she’s my lil snake (even if she denies it) and that’s awesome! I love your art style and how you draw your ocs, they’re all so pretty 🥺❤️ Below gonna drop as much lore as I can! (Of course it might change because my brain likes to keep adding on 🥲)

This is gonna be two separate parts just to space things out! Let’s start with some Maríanne stuff!

🐍🐍

MARÍ’S FAMILY:

Has an older brother with a 12 year age gap, his name is Estefan Villanueva (his name was changed it might change again). He took care of Maríanne when she was much younger. When he got older he found himself a husband with a kid. His future husband helped him raise Maríanne along with his own child.

Her parents are out of commission. It didn’t end well for them. Maríanne thinks about them sometimes but was mostly raised by her brother.

There are some extended family members in Mexico but some died during the revolution. But she has some aunts, uncles, and cousins still kicking!

MARÍ’S JOB:

Oh, yeah, it fluctuates. When she first arrived at Lackadaisy, she started working at the Daisy’s Cafe as a waitress. Taught Ivy the ropes when she came to work there.

Then to keep her mind busy, she becomes Mordecai’s assistant and does a bit of accounting (mostly in her head).

At the same time she starts to work out again and regains her strength, she catches the attention of Atlas. He put her as a trigger man but she always got hurt because she refuses to kill the enemies with a gun (this mentality won’t last forever) and only fights with her fists. She really tries Mordecai’s patience.

The last straw was when she took in a rival gang member and that’s when Mordecai insisted that she doesn’t join their trigger man ventures anymore. Of course, she is still brought along as extra muscle but only for negotiations, but she just cooks books with Mordecai for the most part.

DOES SHE KNOW ABOUT MARIGOLD?

Oh yeah. Yeah she does. When she finds about Mordecai joining them and betraying Lackadaisy, she’s pissed. Once she finds him, she tackles the hell out of him. After almost killing each other, they talked things out like civilized people (if pointing a shotgun and pistol at each other was civilized). They soon made a deal and allied with each other.

Onto her relationships!!

MARÍ’S RELATIONSHIPS/THOUGHTS Pt. 1:

Rocky 🎪🎭🎻:

As part of my “The Rattlesnake and the Jester” AU, they met on the road. After a few coincidences of meeting each other while Maríanne was traveling to Florida, they decided to stick with each other because why not, better than being alone. They do split off but not my by choice. Once they find each other again at Lackadaisy it was a joyous day!

They have a close relationship, always getting into trouble with each other. Performing together on the streets almost everyday made them in synch with each other, it frightens a lot of people when they mimic each other perfectly or say the same sentences at the same time. Chaotic in the streets and chaotic on the dance floors. Swear up and down, they can communicate telepathically by squishing their foreheads together. Their love is a little codependent (totally won’t backfire) but it’s a good one.

They act so stupid and goofy when they’re together, so much so it makes people underestimate them. Together they’re a dynamic duo and can swindle people in a heart beat with their combined charm. One moment you’re like “aww look how stupid they are” and next thing you know, whoops! Your wallet is gone. 🔥Partners in crime!🔥

Her first impressions of him: “He’s cute, funny, charismatic, weird, talkative, but I like it. I love hearing his frantic rambles and poetry, even though I don’t understand the bigger English words.”

Current thoughts: “I will die and fight for him (yep they’re getting together). I still think of him the same way but I understand his rambles now. I like joining in his chaos but I will pull it back once it gets too dangerous or it risks other people’s lives. He’s my safe space and wherever he goes, I follow. I don’t want to lose him again. “

Mordecai 🔪⏱️🔫:

Her mentor (Mordecai never agrees with it but it’s the truth). Back in New York, Marianne’s brother owned a shelter/soup kitchen where Mordecai and his family stopped by from time to time. Marianne’s brother hired Mordecai to be his accountant once he got to know him. Baby Maríanne always followed Mordecai around when he came to the shelter and watched him work. Despite being annoyed by this clingy little child, he’d let her watch because she stayed quiet.

During their prime lackadaisy era, it was no different. Maríanne would come into his office and watch him work or even help him (or tries to, she just ends up being more of an unpaid secretary instead of a fellow accountant cuz Mordecai is very picky).

First Thoughts-“I admire him and I aspire to be like him (people often wonder why). I try to adopt his menacing and stoic demeanor, but it never works. Next best thing is trying to be as agile and quick thinking as him. I really trusts in his advice and judgement. Often finding myself looking to him for answers but I’m not afraid to question them. He keeps me grounded and I’m grateful for the amount of times he kept my mind busy with work. Better than dwelling on the past. Occasionally, I fear him and fear for him. I don’t understand how he can be so cruel but I’m jealous on how quickly he can turn off his emotions. How does he sleep at night?”

Current thoughts: “Can I still trust him?”

Note- Think of Athena and Odysseus from Epic the Musical

Zib and the band🎺🎷🥁🎹🎻:

She loves them. They’ve helped her get through her toughest days and always went to them on her break. They’d sing and dance with each other to the annoyance of most. They f e e d into her gambling addiction (always tempted to gamble her house keys, cuz she believes she’s that good) and she always plays poker with the band. For fun she often plays their instruments, always reaching the trumpet more (iykyk). Marí always hangs with them until Mordecai has to drag her by the scruff to bring her back to work.

She’d mostly do some late night drinking with Zib and they both just wallow in self pity together. ✨Depressed drinking buddies✨ She’d often go to him to learn more about poetry and (before their reunion) would ask him to explain Rocky’s poems to her.

First Thoughts: “They’re fun! I understand why Mordecai refers to them as “lazy hooligans” but I always finds them as a place of peace to let loose. A bunch of talented cool cats! Deep down I want to sing with them on stage but the dance floor just calls to me.

Current thoughts: “They deserve better.”

Viktor 🔧⚒️🛻:

A friend but only talks to him on occasion. She know that Viktor pities her but she doesn’t take it to heart. Marí slightly fears him but sees him as a place to run when they’re creepy men tailing her.

First Thoughts: “Tall. Tall scary fluffy man. I find him incredibly intimidating but I want to be as strong as him. His unwavering strength encouraged me to get strong again. I always feel tempted to ask him to throw me at the enemies. Like a surprise attack! But he’d probably stare at me. I’m definitely going to use his stare as a negotiation tactic.”

Current thoughts: “I pity him.”

Sorry for the long post! Second part coming later today!
