𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊𝐆𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃.

raised by a single mother, milo grew up in england, always drifting between cities and towns before settling in london until the age of nine when his mother moved them both state side to be closer to her family again after struggling to raise a child as a single parent — only to lose custody of him a year and a half later after failing to hold down a job due to a drug addicition.

milo grew up in foster care after that, bouncing around families and drifting between foster homes before finally settling with a family who was interested in more than just the money that fostering him would line their pockets. he remained with this family until his late teens, when he developed the same restless feet that had plagued his mother and drove her to constantly move them around.

he moved around the states for a couple of years; crashing in motels, sleeping on strangers couches he had found advertised on facebook or craigslist while bouncing between jobs until one of them landed him in san amore

milo has lived in san amore for eight years now, which is arguably the longest he has stayed in one place at a time. he feels at home in the small town, having made roots (  the good and bad kind )  over the years and his job at the firehouse is what is keeping him around — for now.

as well as being a firefighter, milo owns a food truck that he opened two years ago as a side venture. it’s a popular spot around town for first responders and the towns folk and much like milo, it doesn’t stay in one place for too long. some weekends his truck can be found serving burgers near riverside view and others it can be found in valentine park.

intro: @amorestart​ tw: death.

nora carraway x 27 x bouncer / security at klub kiss. 

born & raised in the coziness of riverside view to a low income family, her parents were absolute saints but always seemed to just barely be scraping by,. and yet, they tried their best to do anything they could for their two children. the younger of two, nora had always been and still is a real small firecracker; such trouble from the very beginning and often referred to as the unexpected surprise for the family. ( an accident, but a happy one? ) 

  even if she had a seemingly happy upbringing. that nagging feeling of being a burden on her mother’s back kept her distant, and growing up with one obnoxious older brother that could do no wrong. the two siblings never really got along not even much later in life when tragedy struck, but more on that later. 

her mother, annalise, bless her soul. did what she could and worked so hard to provide for their little nest, getting whatever side gigs she could. even having multiple part time jobs which would lead to her fatal downfall & her father, peter... well, he could certainly be classified as a military man. all his adult life, dedicated to the service which left the little family without his presence most of the time. though, when he was around, he was a big ol’ softy and nora was definitely her father’s daughter, almost worshiping the ground he walked on. 

without her father present, most of time;  there was this constant urge in nora to rebel against everything, and that mentality plagued throughout her teenage years. ( just oofff, )  eventually, she fell into the wrong crowd as many teenagers do and got swept up. petty crimes which led to petty charges, a slight slip with narcotics and that’s when, shit really hit the fan. the man, the myth, the legend... the one nora admired most, came home and boy, was he fucking pissed off. his solution was to ship the young girl out of state, to attend a military school/camp as a punishment. however, it bizarrely turned out to be the greatest gift that anyone had ever given her, some order.

three years went by so quickly at that school, it was almost blissful in her eyes; she had been thriving in chaos, but as life does, it comes knocking with a rude awakening, her mother had suddenly passed away, not managing her stressers. ( remember that phrase, trust me. )  that’s when, she came back home to san amore and has stayed ever since with her father in retirement. though, she decided to keep going on the same track, but not in the conventional sense. nora never went on to serve in the military, but rather specializing in a counter assault tactics system ( aka self defense. ) that her father and a few of his army buddies had developed over the years, intending it specifically for women that went overseas into active areas. so at the age twenty-three, five years of restless training in various difficult circumstances, she became a certified trainer for her father’s company which allowed her to travel across the country to introduce their system to different army bases.

a year ago, however, her father passed away as well, not managing his stressers properly and that’s where the only support system she trusted was gone which was a huge blow with her father gone and the company going under. at that difficult point, nora leaned on her then spouse with her older brother being nowhere in sight. ( open wc / spouse: male or female & open wc: older brother that dipped after the funeral: male, of course. ) well, after moving into their shared apartment, and luckily, getting full time gig at klub kiss as a bouncer / doorman, ‘cause of her experience in hand to hand combat tactics. also, she couldn’t mix drinks for shit, so that was certainly out of the picture. betrayal happened. it took her some time too really admit to herself that her spouse had been cheating, and doing for a while at that point. nora was in love, but that all came to an explosive end after a long shift, finding them sleeping blissfully next someone else. obviously, she dipped and crashed at a friends house until finding a roommate in the lanes that was willing to take her in.  

TLTR: nora’s a classic workaholic, she’s a little ( a lot ) bitter towards the world, but certainly wasn’t always like that. now, she more less tries to avoid life by tossing rowdy barflies out, but has dreams of continuing her father’s legacy by starting his company back up which went under after his death, only problem is funding. also she’s vanessa’s roommate ( filled that connection xx )

devon miller

thirty years old

pansexual

san amore native

florist at roses are red

ex-convict

even in a town like san amore, you can’t escape the chaos. see, there’s always going to be those bad kids at school no matter where you go – the ones who’ll convince you it’s a good idea to skip class and go into town for that five-finger discount. devon had just wanted to fit in, like he always did, because it wasn’t like he was any good at school. his mind always wandered elsewhere, never could be bothered to pay attention and before he knew it he’d flunked and was left to fend for himself after his parents kicked him out of their house.

the streets became his home at seventeen, devon quickly learnt how to look after himself and sometimes would find a sofa to crash on for an evening or two before venturing back out there. it wasn’t ideal but he did what he needed to do to survive until he fell upon a sweet girl who’d brought him coffee one morning as he was sat on the curb outside of coffee with love. it was often a good place to sit because on the odd occasion someone would take pity, or he’d see someone he knew from school who’d give him a sad sort of smile and chuck him a few dollars for some food. but she’d been different. she didn’t give him money, instead she gave him company. she gave him warmth and hope and conversation.

it wasn’t long before she took the risk of moving this strange, street boy into her home and soon their became as domestic as could be. until, of course, she fell pregnant.

they were still just kids, at least so devon thought, and although he was twenty-three now and should have had a full-time job he was struggling to make ends meet. he tried work as a labourer, as a painter and decorator, but never could he get more than a few jobs a month and that was barely enough to pay his half of the bills let alone to feed an extra mouth. so, remembering his roots, devon made the rash decision to rob someone.

a friend of a friend gave him a weapon, they talked him through the best place to target but devon really wasn’t as smart as he liked to believe. he’d forgot to turn the cameras off. and so, after breaking and entering, threatening with a weapon for money to be handed over, it was a matter of hours before he was caught.

seven years he was given inside. his girlfriend was devastated to think their child was going to grow up only knowing their father from the opposite side of a piece of glass, never being able to hold one another or kiss each other, but she was prepared to stick by devon’s side. it seemed, however, that devon had other ideas. see, in prison he got caught up in it all – he found himself in fights, in brawls, joining in with riots and maybe it was the influence of his cell mate that encouraged him. but he felt he needed it, he didn’t want to think about his girlfriend and their unborn child and how he wasn’t going to be around. so, maybe that’s why he ended up sleeping with cell mate as a form of release.

devon never planned to tell his girlfriend but even she managed to notice the bruising on his neck that he couldn’t blame on a fight this time. and so, he confessed to her. told her it was just a prison thing and that it was a way of them keeping themselves sane inside but she didn’t buy it. devastated by the infidelity, the moment their child was born, she moved away and devon never was informed where she was.

now, after serving the full length of his sentence (he never had been good at good behaviour), devon’s finally returned to san amore in the hopes to try and make amends with the people he’d hurt in his past. he believes he’s a changed man, having found spiritualism and meditation in prison, and even found himself work at roses are red as a florist after learning the art of gardening in prison.

[ofkenneth]

( ashley, 19, gmt ) hey, is that JAKE GYLLENHAAL in san amore? of course not, it’s just KENNETH LEWIS. HE is 36 years old, identifies as CIS MALE and has been a resident here for 1 MONTH. they keep themselves busy as a SCREENWRITER. though they may come across as INVENTIVE and COMICAL, don’t be fooled too easily as they can also be RAPACIOUS and INDELICATE. i wonder what trouble they’re going to bring.

hello i’m ashley, 19 years old and coming at you from the gmt timezone! i am so excited to write with all of you and can’t wait to get some plots and threads going so here’s all about my boy kenneth!

his biography is here however i got a little carried away and it got long so i do not expect you to read all of it, however it is there if you want to get a more in-depth vibe of him but to quickly summarize: 

originally from glasgow, his parents were murdered in a robbery gone wrong when he was 15. after that he became quite distant and reclusive as he felt everyone around him only pitied him and saw him as the poor orphan boy as he grew up.

writing was his way of coping with their death, as he found it easier to immerse himself in creating new worlds and stories than to try and talk about his actual reality with anyone.

moved to london for university where he completed a degree in english and drama, during this time he became a lot more outgoing and quite charismatic as he didn’t feel weighed down by pity or sympathy as nobody knew about what had happened with his parents here.

after university he moved to los angeles and began working as an assistant script editor on a number of different productions. he was determined to rise to the top eventually and would often backstab his own friends and steal pitch ideas if it meant furthering his career.

after working in this field for all of his 20′s, kenneth eventually did get the opportunity to pitch his own script and have it turned into a real film production.

the film was met with great success and the newfound fame quickly went to kenneth’s head as he became much more ego-centric and narcissistic than before.

his film was nominated for an oscar, and he boasted about how he had it in the bag to everyone but when it came to the announcement of the award on the night- his film didn’t win.

being drunk and embarrassed, kenneth flipped over a table and stormed out of the event. this of course was caught on camera and created a scandal for his career as he ruined his reputation and previous success with his tantrum.

despite his ruined reputation and now struggling career, people still loved his original film and a sequel was highly anticipated. and so to try and save his image before the sequel was announced kenneth’s pr manager had him publicly announce that he would be going to rehab to deal with his alcohol misuse and anger management

after an 8 month stint in rehab kenneth now finds himself in san amore, which he hopes will be a good place to finish the script for his sequel while he tries to avoid public attention for a while.

that unintentionally got a bit lengthy again i apologise, i am the worst for it ahaha but i have some connection ideas right HERE but i am honestly up for whatever you can think of or want aswell! so please feel free to hmu here or on discord or like this and i’ll come to you <3 x

[rvthcrford]

hey, is that JESSE RUTHERFORD in san amore? of course not, it’s just RIVER RUTHERFORD. HE is 30 years old, identifies as CIS MALE and has been a resident here for 1 WEEK. they keep themselves busy as a DRUG DEALER. though they may come across as RESOURCEFUL and EXPRESSIVE, don’t be fooled too easily as they can also be ELUSIVE and CHAOTIC. i wonder what trouble they’re going to bring.

pls welcome my newest baby-- brother to the one and only paris, he is by far the biggest mess of a character that i’ve ever had so i am v excited for you to meet him <3

your local neighbourhood drug dealer; expect discounts and deals galore on ecstasy, cocaine, opiates, you name it.

probably worth mentioning however that the reason why river has arrived in san amore is bc...

he’s just got out of prison after serving a little under three years for a crime he refuses to talk about (it’s a secret for now hehehehe)

released on parole, he’s currently on a tag which makes him like cinderella bc he has to be at home by seven or the feds are gonna get him and you bet he’s gonna be fucking launching himself into his yard at 6:59

river has the mentality of a naughty teenager and definitely has a case of the ol’ peter pan syndrome, refusing to believe that being thirty means he should maybe, idk, grow up and stop being a damn delinquent

he’s dragged down by a drug addiction - mainly ketamine and opiates - and can’t ever really see an escape because he’s convinced he’s just doomed to be broken and he’s kinda okay with that

he likes to throw on the charm though and schmooze his way out of any situation possible with humour and crude jokes but it could definitely rub some people up the wrong way so i apologise in advance if this idiot offends anyone

he’s trying to “start fresh” but by that, he’s basically starting over again in a brand new town and he’s grateful to have paris by his side to help him out 

wanted connections

customers/regulars - yessss gimme all of these and let river fuel these bad habits

roommate - a word of warning though that whoever has to unfortunately live with river’s ass will probably want to murder him for the shit he brings in and leaves about the place

the one who thinks they can fix him - i love angst like this ok and it would be absolutely brutal bc river is literally the least loving or affectionate person to any man or woman so it would be interesting to see this dynamic and who knows can river change??? MAYBE (but probably not)

[josephinexhjelmsted]

hey, is that [ ALICIA VIKANDER ] in san amore? of course not, it’s just [ JOSEPHINE HJELMSTED ]. [ SHE / HER ] is [ TWENTY-NINE ] years old, identifies as [ FEMALE ] and has been a resident here for [ FOUR YEARS ]. they keep themselves busy as a [ SHERIFF ]. though they may come across as [ AFFECTIONATE ] and [ SELF-RELIANT ], don’t be fooled too easily as they can also be [ STRESSED ] and [ PRIVATE ]. i wonder what trouble they’re going to bring.

born in gothenburg sweden, josephine hjelmsted had lived through a fairly ordinary childhood. her parents were both lovingly devoted to their child’s every need. she was the youngest out of five rowdy children, four older brothers and being the only girl, she never felt iced out for her gender; encouraged to follow any path even if that meant going a little against the tide.

excelling as an athlete in her younger years, she was even a national champion at javelin in her division, but after busting up her shoulder, back and neck during a bad horse riding accident she unfortunately had to retire that sport. intensive physical therapy was needed, yet her presistancy at a critical point made it so that she made a full recovery and that’s when wrestling became her passion at that point in time.

soon intensive combat; self defence, disarming weapons and physical management came into play. the moment she turned eighteen, she joined the swedish armed forces. after excelling in the armed forces, she served for four years before returning home, being awarded for her bravery in combat. when she returned home, she wasted no time and was one of the few women in the swedish swat team.

she got married to an american, but no kids, not yet at least…or maybe even ever. josephine had been dealing quite secretly with fertility issues. she and her husband had been together for almost three years before he made the decision to move them back to his hometown where josephine accepted a job at san amore’s sheriff department and worked her way up to eventually become the sheriff.

little did she know that her husband, the man she loved had been carrying out an affair for yeeeeaaars, even before they moved back to his hometown and his mistress lived in san amore. it wasn’t until recently that she discovered the affair via a close friend told her. she hasn’t yet confronted her husband about it and only time will tell how things will play out. one thing is for certain is that san amore has grown on her and doesn’t want to move away.  

WANTED CONNECTIONS

her cheating husband.

her husband’s mistress. 

work buddies. 

someone she’s arrested before and they sort of form lil friendship

the friend that told her about her husband’s affair.

Hey, is that [ DANIELLE CAMPBELL ] in san amore? of course not, it’s just [ CALLIE FORSYTHE ]. [ SHE ] is [ 25 ] years old, identifies as [ CIS FEMALE ] and has been a resident here for [ 1 MONTH ]. they keep themselves busy as a [ WRITER ]. though they may come across as [ CREATIVE ] and [ IMAGINATIVE ], don’t be fooled too easily as they can also be [ CLOSED-OFF ] and [ EVASIVE ]. i wonder what trouble they’re going to bring.

FUN FACTS UNDER THE READ MORE

Was originally born under the name Meghan Weiss

In 2007, her father was arrested during her 12th birthday party. He was charged and found guilty for the murder of 13 women between 1998 and 2007. As a 12 year old you don’t have any friends left after something like that. No invitations to sleepovers. People walk around you like you’re cursed.

In 2008 she and her mother were forced to move and change their names after death threats and a break in made it clear they were no longer welcome in their town.

In 2012 her father was murdered in prison. She had not spoken to him since 2007 but had she ever wanted closure or to see him that option was ripped away.

You could say it all fucked her up.

Her mom started to drink. And Callie did too. Gr8 bonding time, 10/10 would recommend.

When Callie turned 20 her mom got her shit together, got sober, met a guy, and started to heal. Callie resented tf out of her for that and left home and began scampering around the east coast, changing towns every year.

When they first moved her mother filled her mouth with lies, a new identity, a new history. Callie learned to like the taste of lies. She’d give you the wrong name in a coffee shop just for the hell of it, laugh if you caught her giving out another fake name later. She loved to tell tales, she loved to drink, she never let anyone get close to her unless she was drowning in liquor. Never let anyone in, that was her motto. Never never never.

Until she met Calum at a support group for trauma. He made her laugh. He made her feel safe. The longer she spent with him the more the truth started feeling safer too. Falling for Calum changed her dna, it changed her down to the bone. If you ask her she will say he saved her life one night on a water tower and he has continued to save it every day since. He became a conduit through which she saw the world in color again, through which she could slowly stop hiding behind lies and start letting other people in. When he asked her to move in the only answer was yes. When he asked her to marry him the only answer was yes. And when she asked him if he wanted to go on an adventure with her to a new place his answer was yes.  

She is a writer. At the age of 22 she signed with an agent and her 4th attempted manuscript got sold to a publisher. It is the first novel in when it meant to be a Science Fiction Fantasy series and it has been gathering steam and fans. Callie writes under the male pseudonym Colin Hyacinth and since she never does any press or signings and there are no author photos in her books her popularity is growing do the the mystery of her/his identity. Her second book in the series came out April 14th of 2020. She is in conversation with her agent to release the third and final book in the series under her psuedonym and then start her new books under her own name.

{ amelia • 24 • she/her • gmt } hey, is that [ nina dobrev ] in san amore? of course not, it’s just [ sabrina white ]. [ she/her ] is [ 28 ] years old, identifies as [ female ] and has been a resident here for [ 12 years ]. they keep themselves busy as a/an [ dance teacher ]. though they may come across as [ + confident ] and [ + adventurous ], don’t be fooled too easily as they can also be [ - bitchy ] and [ - ignorant ]. i wonder what trouble they’re going to bring.

Hey Hey, my name is Amelia and I will be playing Sabrina White, to be honest, I have one week left of Uni so then I will be 100% more active but rn I am currently doing uni work but will  aim to be on daily. lol. I’m rambling. Here is some information about Sabrina! 

sabrina grew up with her parents and older sister in nottingham, UK, she was very much spoilt.

she believed everything had to be about her and she should be the center of attention at all times no matter what was going on.

She had confidence from a young age and she was very grateful for that.

She loved to dance, she was part of a professional dance school out side of actual school because her parents could afford to give her that.

She was part of the popular crowd at school, everyone wanted to be like her and be her and wanted to be her friend but luckily she had stopped being a complete centre of attention.

When she was 15 her parents moved to San Amore, and although it was hard for her, she knew her parents were happier there. She had to make new friends and was definitely scared about trying to become popular.

She was a very loyal friend and would always there to listen to her friends when they have problems.

She met Brady her first love when she moved to a high school in San Amore, and he was different to other people due to the fact that although she was able to flirt with a lot of people, he was someone she was able to properly open up to and they realised they had feelings for each other.

During her time at school she was a part of a music video.

After school she was offered the chance to tour Europe and America. 

She got into the dance tou and was excited to travel around Europe on a tour.

Her and Brady came to a realisation that they should probably split up during this time.

After her Europe tour she realised she loved being away from home and travelling that she asked her parents to help move to LA so she could continue workign on her dance.

As she was there, she auditioned for another talent agent which led to her going on an american dance tour.

During that she met a guy who she decided to just have fun and hook up with during the time they were touring. But whilst they did that, she found out he was a big person on getting high, that she ended up joining him and became addicted.

The tour was over and she realised how addicted she was that she pushed him away and tried to fix herself but it was hard.

When the tour was over, she decided to move back to Sam Amore, and get her life back on track.

growing up in an extremely hostile environment, her true identity rosalia sondersby. she as a child dutifully followed her mother’s directives to a tee. her mother, an highly educated woman, a doctor, refused to take any responsibility of being wrong in any situation that concerned her daughter; a narcissist, no surprise. her father was long gone out of the picture when rosalia came into this world. he apparently had died or that what’s she was told, if that truly mattered since it was only a one night stand and he was never even notified of rosalia’s existence while she rested in her mother’s womb. he couldn’t have helped her in her life anyway.

her mother, ever the narcissist loved to flaunt her intellectual daughter to everyone and anyone, yet refused to show any love and affection to her; it was apparently a weakness. early summer courses at pristine universities and it seemed there was a bright future ahead, that is, until she met a girl that would change her entire life forever. now, rosalia had gained a reputation for being an intelligent girl amongst her peers in private school, that’s where, valerie comes into the picture. now, valerie was a troubled kid, deep into narcotics and generally a mess of human, and yet she was incredibly kind and charming. she wanted a new fake ID, which was an easy request for rosalia to uphold, valerie offered rosalia a deal she couldn’t refuse; to be her friend. cheesy, but kinda cute. desperate for any type of connection, she of course, agreed to those terms.

who knew that rosalia’s life would be absolutely torn apart with some black hair dye, some scissors and two incredibly detailed fake ID’s. now, valerie had suggested a night out in an old nightclub called ‘the flying horse’ in downtown chicago. now anyone with a brain that researched this club would know that it was heavily involved with the russian mob, they had largely been responsible for the recent flooding of the downtown area with narcotics and weapons.

on that fateful night at ‘ the flying horse ’ it was all fun and shots at the bar; they danced, got heavily intoxicated, loads of whoooing and just lived a little. that is, until they met illya and alexi petrov, brothers, co-owners of the nightclub and of course russian mobsters. now, alexi was very much a dumb-dumb, kind of a creep and all together a pretty weird dude and valerie …..well, she loooooved that about him….who would’ve guessed that? now whilst alexi and valerie were inseparable at this point in the night, going to the bathroom doing all sorts of illegal stuff. rosalia heavily intoxicated with a water desperately trying to sober up, just a little bit. and that’s where illya, comes into the picture, he was the smarter one…. obviously. fiercely handsome, intelligent and charming, but also a very very very bad dude. they hit it off. they talked, danced and ended up kissing, so by the end of the night illya had rosalia wrapped around his little finger.

and here’s where it all goes down the shitter. alexi and illya invited them to their house after the club closed. now valerie jumped on this opportunity whilst rosalia protested, she wanted to go home at this point, barely being able to stand and having the capacity of bambi on ice when it came to walking. swiftly, illya picked her up and loaded her into the backseat of the car with alexi and valerie in the front, in rosalia’s twisted mind, that to her kinda romantic. illya stayed behind at club, taking care of some business, he said. dry heaving on the car ride over, she begged them to take her home, but no dice. as soon as they got there, it was business for them in the living room, ( sex, y’know ), and the bathroom for rosalia where she spent a good hour dry heaving and relieving herself on repeat. she finally found the strength to raise herself up a little more sober than before and went out on the porch for some fresh air. she placed her shivering body on the cold wooden chair until she eventually passed out. after maybe two hours of drunken dreams, all of a sudden she joilted up, hearing a commotion in the living room where valerie and alexi were. illya was back and accusing alexi of betrayal and selling him out to the feds, as soon as rosalia peeked into the living room from the glass door, she witnessed illya put two bullets in alexi. then even before, valerie could scream, she was dead. an indescribable amount of panic set in, a truly sobering moment of realization that she was next and as illya went upstairs in a frantic search for her, she climbed the over the porch and ran to the apartment complex down the street.

a frantic 911 call behind a dumpster later, she was safe or so she thought. the police arrived and took her statement at the station. it was the first solid witness against illya petrov they had ever had, notorious for executing anyone that dared to stand against him in court and unafraid to fire at law enforcement. the police were aware that this was a serious case of her protection. illya would stop at nothing to get her killed. the safe house had been compromised and two officers lost their life in a brutal manner with rosalia narrowly escaping with her life, running 10 miles through dirt, rain and forest to get over to the neighbouring police station. she was once again safe, the case of her protection was forwarded to the san amore sheriff’s department and she was helped to adopt a new indenity as nina mikkelsen.

now, nina has lived in san amore for 8 years in a small rustic house in the Lanes. she kinda liked the town, but incredibly vary of getting attached or people snooping into her personal life. yet she wants connections, and is getting a bit reckless. however, her number one priority is survival to stand trial against illya petrov when they catch him.

hey, is that NICO TORTORELLA in san amore? of course not, it’s just DEXTER MATTHEWS. HE/THEY are 28 years old and has been a resident here for ALL THEIR LIFE. They keep themselves busy as a MAIL CARRIER. though they may come across as EMPATHETIC and KIND, don’t be fooled too easily as they can also be CRUDE and OBNOXIOUS. i wonder what trouble they’re going to bring.

hey guys! i’m shark and this is my genderfluid, precious angel, dexter-- except they’re not that much of an angel which you’ll soon find out hehehe

born and raised in san amore, dexter knows this town like the back of their hand; they’ve never once left, not even on a vacation, and whilst some may say that might make them deprived, dex doesn’t care too much. san amore is all they’ve ever known and they’re not too sure if the big wide world is even ready for them just yet

they work as a mail carrier and have done for the past ten years because... well, let’s just say that dexter isn’t the brightest crayon in the box after dropping out of amore high in junior year. it suits them just fine however and it means they’ve managed to make a little bit of a reputation for themselves with the locals.

a natural flirt, dexter will always try their best to swoon their way into someone’s heart. but they never used to be this way-- in fact, from the age of twenty to twenty-five, dexter was in a long-term relationship that developed into an engagement. except, dexter never actually met their fiance face-to-face.

it’s difficult to really meet people in a small town like san amore so dexter spent a lot of their time as a teenager on the internet, like most do, and found themselves on a chatroom where they met their future partner. the two of them clicked almost instantly, sharing banter back and forth and before dexter knew it, they were sharing ‘i love you’s and talking of the future.

they’d shared photographs of course, though they never did videochat, there always seemed to be an excuse but dexter was simply blindsided. that was until the pair of them made plans for them to meet in san amore-- but dexter’s fiance left them stranded. they stood them up. and that was when dexter realised that maybe they weren’t in love after all and maybe they were stupid to even think it was possible.

 since the break up three years ago, dexter decided to make up for all those lost years in their early twenties. they discovered themselves both in their aesthetic and their sexuality, experimenting and exploring, but they never could learn to commit. it’s too terrifying, so if anything ever starts to get a little too serious, dexter is quick to play that ‘ghost’ card. yet, in a town like san amore, it isn’t so easy to just disappear.

wanted plots:

roommates + neighbours! dexter lives a house down the lanes

bffs/partners in crime - i love the idea of a polar opposite type best friend that puts dex in their place and mellows their craziness just so

the ghostees - as in, dex started to date them at some point in the last five years exept mysteriously ‘vanished’ from all their social media but yet they still see them flirting with others down at cupid’s chokehold nearly every night

{ amelia • 24 • she/her • gmt } hey, is that [ brittany snow] in san amore? of course not, it’s just [ kassidy cole ]. [ she/her ] is [ 25 ] years old, identifies as [ female ] and has been a resident here for [ 25 years ]. they keep themselves busy as a/an [ journalist]. though they may come across as [ + committed ] and [ + motivated ], don’t be fooled too easily as they can also be [ - vain ] and [ - loud]. i wonder what trouble they’re going to bring.

Kassidy grew up in San Amore, she is very family oriented and would do aboslutely anything for her family. 

She was always very out going as kid, she was probably the sweetest person in her year at school, she got on with everyone or she tried too. 

With her being that nice and optimistic it did make people dislike her and cause her to have some arguments but Kassidy is very good at sticking up for herself.

Kassidy grew up with her parents her older brother and younger sister and she was very much around a very hard working family. 

She always wanted to do writing from a young age but what kind of writing she wasn’t sure of until she was in junior year of high school when she joined the school paper. She then realised that she wanted to go into journalism.

Growing up she had two friends she really trusted, as much as she was nice and optimistic, she didn’t trust many people. 

A lot of comments she had was that she was very loud and she couldn’t help it, it was who she was.

When she went to college she instantly met a guy, someone who was so sweet, his name was Julian. Since she stayed in San Amore for college, she found out he had just moved there partly for college but also because his uncle lived there and his uncle was like a second dad to him. 

They hit it off fast and started dating in their first year of college and although she obviously made friends, he was the most important person in her life. 

Graduation came around and Julian proposed and she said yes and she was given her dream job as an editor on the local paper and she was very much living her best life. 

A year and half later of her graduation, she was happy with Julian until he got his dream job in New York and she was ready to say she would go with him to New York and live their life together because she loved him and wanted a future with him. Unfortunately that was not something he wanted, he wanted ot make his dream come true on his own, so they broke up and ended the engagement. 

Now Kassidy just focuses on work, she has been struggling to get back out there on the dating scene.

- Catie here is a free spirit and full of spunk. Ever since she came out of the womb she’s been dramatic. The minute her mother introduced her to Dexter when she first came home--she puked all over them and screamed for 3 hours straight--who knew it’d be the start of a beautiful lifelong friendship.

- Catie or I should say Caitlin -- absolutely despises her first name. Don’t ask her why...she really has no idea why she hates her birth name. She just cringes--she’s convinced her brain is programmed to hate it. See? Dramatic. 

- Growing up Catie brought home so many things--literally. Her favorite thing to collect will always be coins. She loves coins. At a young age, Catie used to go treasure hunting with Dex for hours. The fact their parents really didn’t ask where they went or why they were gone so long should have been a red flag right there. Catie and Dex found themselves out of the house a lot--especially at night when they’d be in their treehouse to get away from the constant arguing going on in their main house.

- When it comes to animals and bugs-- Catie loved those too. On her 4th birthday party, her parents wondered why they couldn’t find the birthday girl. They searched for hours until they found her trying to clean up a dead cat in the garage “Look mommy & daddy--isn’t she beautiful?” And that’s when her love for taxidermy started. You thought I was going to say psychopath didn’t you?-- No, she’s just a weirdo who thinks the circle of life is beautiful--even when life has come to an end.

- When Catie was around 6 and Dex was 8, they got the news that their parents were going to no longer be together. I guess you can say that’s when Catie embedded the thought that true love didn’t exist. She thought her mommy and daddy’s love was like a fairytale, but in reality, it was all an act.

- The next few years were kind of tough, their mother was kind of distant--tried her hardest to work a million jobs just so she could keep busy and not think about how her marriage failed. That being so, It was always Catie and Dex at home. At age 10, Catie successfully made herself her own waffles from scratch without burning the house down.

- Throughout her preteens and teens, you could consider Catie popular, but in her eyes, she was just a people person and she loved to understand people and the way they see life--so she got along with everyone. When she was 13 she developed a talent. She loved making resin art with things she finds in nature. For Christmas--when she was 13 and Dex was 15--she gifted them a resin butterfly which was her first project ever.

- When it came to love, sure Catie had a boyfriend and even a girlfriend her freshman and sophomore year of high school but did she “love” them? Who even knows. 

- The news of dexter dropping out when he was a junior only made Catie want to as well--Dex was her ride or die school buddy and now--she had to take on the rest of her high school alone. Which infuriated her. But at last--brother’s advice to stay in school won.

- “We’re moving. Now that Dexter is out of the house--we’re moving.” Are just a few little words that Catie didn’t know could break her heart. Denver, Colorado? Of all places. That was a city--Catie loved her little town filled with so much nature. But this was going to be okay though right? Dex could find a mail carrier job in Denver--no, they were staying and she was leaving. She knew what love was with them--unconditional love. She had to go explore alone in this new city.

- The first two years were rough in Denver. Catie acted out--a lot. She kind of resented her mother for taking her away from her happy place and everything she ever knew. But, Catie did go to The University of Colorado and did in fact graduate with a bachelor's in Biology and a minor in taxidermy.

- In university-- she wasn’t like High School Catie, she could care less how the people she met viewed life. Life wasn’t beautiful to her anymore. She just went to school, worked at the coffee shop on campus, and then drove home. But then at 23, her senior year... she met him.

- Peter. She finally felt what she knew could have been love. They had the same interests, loved the same food, and both viewed life the same way--so she thought for the first year they were together and moved in with him.

- All it took was for her to break one glass in the kitchen. That’s all it took for him to lay a hand on her for the first time. “I forgive you.” Is all she could say. Because she loved him. She was her fairytale. There were many instances and many I forgive yous-- but one day it clicked that he didn’t love her. This wasn’t love. Love didn’t exist.

- Three years of abuse-- but she finally left. She packed up her car as he cussed and screamed at her. “I love you, baby--I can change.” He said trying to win her back, “Love for you--doesn’t exist,” she replied and then just drove off. She kept driving. Didn’t even say that she was leaving town to her mother. There was only one person who she wanted to be with right now---and that was her brother.

- Back in San Amore, she really doesn’t have a plan. Hey at least she has a degree right? She wanted to get on her feet here and have hopes she can make art in the town she has always called home -- while trying to pick up all the pieces she lost of herself and put them finally back together.

Wanted Connections:

some childhood friends

possible high school exes from her freshman and sophomore year (boys or girls)

people who buy her artwork (she has an etsy store for resin taxidermy)

and i’m open to other ideas-- catie’s just a free soul and i’m learning her with you all.

hey, is that MARGOT ROBBIE in san amore? of course not, it’s just LAIKEN DE JAGER. SHE is 26 years old, identifies as CIS FEMALE and has been a resident here for ONE WEEK. they keep themselves busy as a TATTOOIST. though they may come across as OBSERVANT and DETERMINED, don’t be fooled too easily as they can also be SENSITIVE and ERRATIC. i wonder what trouble they’re going to bring.

here is my new bby laiken! and below is a lil bit more about her background -- as always, hmu for plots <3

laiken amore de jager ( lay-kun a-moor dee yar-gur )

daughter of johannes and holden de jager; two men who used a surrogate and ended up blessed with laiken and her twin brother, phoenix wolfe.

despite being born in san amore (hence the middle name), laiken grew up mostly in gansbaai, south africa after the family relocated back to her father johannes’, hometown so that he could return to work.

at a young age, she developed a love for the ocean being right outside her front door but whilst she appreciated her father’s career as a shark researcher, she found herself leaning more toward her other dad’s career path-- tattooing.

as soon as she was old enough to practice holding a machine, she would spend hours with holden perfecting little lines on fake skin before giving both her fathers little tattoos of their own as keepsakes. she became an apprentice under holden and he taught her absolutely everything she knew before taking a full time role as an artist in his local shop where she managed to develop a name for herself-- instagram definitely helped.

she had always been close with her twin brother, despite being entirely different there was of course a bond that couldn’t be replicated elsewhere and not even their parents would ever truly understand it. 

laiken found herself wanting to venture out of south africa however, wanting to learn about holden’s american culture, about her real hometown where she spent the first year of her life. but phoenix wasn’t happy-- the two of them had never been apart for more than a few days and he wasn’t prepared to move across the other side of the world, abandoning everything that was in gansbaai, including their loving family.

the two of them proceeded to have a huge fight and she hasn’t spoken to her brother for over a month now, having refused to take his calls or answer his texts. as soon as she knew she had a job secure at love hate tattoo, she packed her bags and left without as much as a post-it note on her twin’s door to tell him she was gone.

now, laiken’s only been in san amore for a week so she’s the ultimate fresh blood. it’s a little bit of a culture shock and she’s not too fond of the weather just yet, but she wants to wrap herself up in as much of the american way of life as possible.

as always, i’m open to all kinds of plots! laiken is definitely going to need some friends to give her guidance (maybe take pity on her haha) and help her figure her way around this alien little town she’s found herself in.

i’d love for her to have a roommate so this is a possibe idea!

laiken is a lil reserved when it comes to dating, but if a man catches her eye, she’ll try to use her south african charm to schmooze her way in. just don’t expect anything long-term-- her plan is to eventually move back to south africa and a man will only get in the way of that (but we know i’m a sucker for angst so this is a definite idea i’m js; imagine falling in love with someone knowing they’re just gonna leave anyway ok and trying to make them stAY)
