ATTA HILL / TWENTY-FOUR / BUSINESS MAJOR

BASICS* FULL NAME: Atta Hill GENDER: cisfemale PRONOUNS: she / her / hers AGE: twenty-four OCCUPATION: business major FACECLAIM: Phoebe Dynevor ORIENTATION: heterosexual RELATIONSHIP STATUS: single DISABILITIES: Atta is hard of hearing in her left ear

PERSONALITY* + forgiving; feisty; responsible - neurotic; insecure; perfectionist

BIO: Atta Hill, the eldest child of the esteemed Hill family, carries the weight of a long-standing responsibility to preserve and carry forward the family legacy in Redwood Hollow. From a tender age, Atta was immersed in the family business, imbibing the knowledge and skills necessary to one day take over the reins of the factory. The Hill’s factory, which stood as one of the first establishments in town, became an integral part of Redwood Hollow’s growth and prosperity.

Now, in her current role within the factory, Atta holds a position of authority, working closely alongside her mother and the enigmatic Mr. Hopper. With her diligent efforts, she gains deep insights into the inner workings of the business, learning the intricacies of production, supply chains, and customer relations. However, despite her extensive preparation and expertise, Atta is often plagued by self-doubt and overwhelming anxiety. The expectations placed upon her shoulders loom large, and she questions whether she possesses the strength and capability to live up to them. The fear of disappointing her family, tarnishing their esteemed reputation, and potentially jeopardizing the livelihoods of the factory’s employees gnaws at her conscience, leading to sleepless nights filled with self-reflection and soul searching. 

Adding to Atta’s unease is her complicated relationship with Mr. Hopper, a long-time associate of her family. While he holds a significant position in the management of the business, Atta finds herself at odds with his management style and his treatment of both herself and the dedicated staff. His authoritarian approach, often devoid of empathy and understanding, leaves her feeling frustrated, stifled and unheard. Despite her growing concerns, Atta treads carefully, acutely aware of the delicate balance required to maintain stability within the factory and the potential consequences of causing disruptions that could reverberate throughout the entire operation. 

In her moments of vulnerability, Atta turns to her loyal confidante, Freddie. Sharing a deep bond, Freddie shares her concerns about Mr. Hopper’s intentions. Freddie firmly believes that Mr. Hopper has ambitions of taking over the entire operation, potentially pushing Atta to the sidelines and, worst of all, eradicating the Hill family’s longstanding involvement in the business. While Atta cannot dismiss the validity of Freddie’s suspicions she hesitates to act upon them, fearing the irrevocable damage it could cause her family’s legacy and the stability of the factory that sustains the livelihoods of countless individuals in Redwood Hollow.

Caught in the intricate web of tradition, expectation, and personal growth, Atta grapples with the delicate balance of upholding her family’s heritage while forging her own path. The weight of responsibility, the internal conflict between duty and personal ambition, and the uncertain future of the business converge, creating a rich tapestry of emotions that shape Atta’s journey within the intricate industrial landscape of Redwood Hollow.

biography —

Aurora Rose’s birth was a rocky one, her mother suffered several miscarriages before carrying her to term and then it seemed the misfortune never ended. Aurora was struck by illness, spending many of the first months of her life in the nicu. At only the age of a year old when she was finally released from the hospital, Aurora was placed in witness protection by her parents, sent off to live in Redwood Hollow with her three aunts — who had spent the most time with her during her stay in the hospital.  However, with her new identity as Rose — she is never the wiser. Told that her parents passed in a car accident just after she was born, Rose remembers nothing but Redwood Hollow and the love of her aunts and though she cares deeply for them, she can’t help but think her world is so small because of how they’ve stifled her. Rose dreams of going to the big city, of living a life and finding love — but anytime she brings it up, her aunts shut her down feverishly. Without their support, Rose can’t seem to find the courage to follow her dreams. Still, at the age of twenty-one — Rose has to sneak out of the cottage she lives in with her aunts; just for a night of fun with her friends.  Meeting the mysterious woman new to town was a glimmer of excitement to Rose — though she didn’t understand why the woman seemed familiar with her, and she knew how her aunts hated her meeting new people; so until she had a plan, Rose kept how she was meeting strangers to herself. 

Rose has a small white cat named Spindle

Outside of her major, Rose’s hobby is dancing — but she didn’t pursue it due to knowing her aunts would’ve never let her leave Redwood for her schooling.

She loves classical music and flower arrangements, making bouquets free of charge for people as a hobby and learning about the art from her Aunt Maria. She works part time at the florist with her.

Rose is a hopeless romantic, in love with the idea of love. She reads romance books and always has one in her bag.

[olivia--flaversham]

HAPPIESTPLACEHQ Task 5 - Family

Describe your character’s family

Do they know their family? Were they raised by them?

Olivia knows her most direct family members, that being her parents and grandparents. She has no cousins, uncles or aunts, at least none that she knows of. Hazel Flaversham, her mother, disappeared mysteriously and without a trace when Olivia was an infant: nobody knows if it had been voluntarily or not. This event threw Olivia's father, Hiram Flaversham, into a paranoid phase (which one might say he never fully overcame) during which he began fixating nearly obsessively on Olivia's safety and whereabouts, to make sure she wouldn't disappear like her mother did. And then, a few years later, it was Hiram's turn to disappear...

Olivia's contact with her paternal grandparents, Richard and Patricia Flaversham, was quite brief and distant, what with Hiram's tense relationship with them. Richard and Patricia had been the ones to insist on meeting semi-regularly with their granddaughter, even if they still rejected Hiram as their son. After Hiram decided not to join the family business and came out to them as bisexual, back when he was just starting as a college student at a business school, his already crumbling relationship with his parents was finally destroyed. Hiram and his father had a big fight and falling out, and despite Patricia's constant attempts at convincing her son to apologize, go back to business school and follow in his father's steps as head of his company, he had made up his mind. Even if it didn't bring in much money, he would follow his dreams to become an artist, a sculptor and inventor. His bohemian lifestyle shifted slightly when his girlfriend Hazel, a similarly free-spirited writer and theater critic, turned up pregnant, and they decided to keep the child and make sure she was raised in a more stable environment. Hazel herself, a New Zealander living in Edinburgh, tried to pursue a career as a professional writer while raising little Olivia, though she went missing before she could become a published author. After more than a decade, Hiram still secretly wonders if she had walked out on them, and often goes over his last memories of her, to try and find out any possible reason for why she might have left.

When Olivia moved to Invercargill with her father, after his disappearance and eventual rescue, she often stayed with her maternal grandparents, Anne and Phineas Browne. They both cared for their granddaughter while Hiram was away from home, trying for jobs and finishing college to get a degree in engineering. Olivia became very close to them and considers them a second set of parents. Even Hiram ended up seeing them as surrogate parental figures, warm, caring and loving as they were, and supportive of their son-in-law and granddaughter's dreams and projects, wherever they may take them.

What was your character’s relationship like with their parents?

Olivia and her father are very close, though sometimes Olivia wishes she could be a little more independent. For the last few years Hiram has slowly been accepting that he needs to let his daughter become her own person and forge her own path, mostly for her happiness though also partly to make sure he doesn't become just like his parents, controlling and authoritative. However, now that she's an adult, Olivia has been wondering if she should move out of Redwood Hollow, where her father has already happily settled down and found a good job, and follow a career in criminology in a bigger city that could pose more of a challenge. This would mean leaving her father behind, which, while originally a goal she had in order to become self-sufficient, now has her doubting whether she can truly manage, knowing herself to still be perhaps a bit too trusting and naïve to face life in a city on her own.

If they weren’t raised by their parents, who raised them? Do they consider the people that raised them to be their family?

Partly raised by her maternal grandparents, Olivia definitely considers them her family. She loves them dearly and are one of the aspects of her life in Invercargill she misses the most.

Overall, how did the idea of family affect your character?

Family is very important to Olivia, but over time it has slowly lost its status as her priority and main source of relationships. Even with how much she misses her maternal grandparents, she finds she misses her friends just as much, and as part of her efforts to make a name for herself apart from her father, she's been trying to focus more on herself and on her own wants and needs.

Thinking about the future, do they want to make a family of their own? What would that look like to them?

Olivia isn't very much interested in having a family of her own. From a couple jobs as a babysitter, she learned she isn't the best at dealing with kids and would much rather she didn't have to interact with them too often. Apart from that, she has never been one to fantasize with romance and marriage and would much rather have a bunch of friends to call her family than searching for a supposed other half.

[colt-phillips]

Task Eleven → Intro & Connections

CHARACTER INFORMATION

FULL NAME: Colt Phillips GENDER: cis male PRONOUNS: he/him AGE: 30 OCCUPATION: Mechanic at Hangman's Garage ORIENTATION: Heterosexual RELATIONSHIP STATUS: Single

+ Strong-willed, Rugged, Loyal - Hot-headed, Guarded, Regretful

Colt Phillips was raised on his family’s farm, which had been in their family for several generations. He grew up liking caring for the animals, but despite his father teaching him how to run a farm, he found he had little interest in doing so. That did not sit well with his father, who would remind him just how important the farm was and just how long it had been in their family. But Colt tuned all of that out, and when he was eighteen, he chose to leave the farm for good. His father fumed and told him he would no longer be welcome if he ever tried to come back, but again Colt did not listen, packing up and leaving with barely a good-bye.

He headed for the closest city, and soon became swept up in the whirl of a bustling metropolis. He got a job as a busboy in a restaurant and made friends with a group who loved the nightlife and were always out carousing. Colt was soon joining them on a regular basis, which unfortunately led to him learning that too much partying and not enough diligence to his work did not mix. After too many times coming in late to work after a long night, he was fired from the restaurant. Trying to find a new job proved tough, and when he tried to stop staying out too late in order to find one, his so-called “friends” cut ties with him. Before long, his money ran out, and Colt had no choice but to give up the city and head back home.

If he had been expecting a warm welcome for the prodigal son, he did not get one. Colt returned to find things at the farm in a dire situation. His father had been attempting to carry on alone after he left, but had injured himself working on some of the machinery and could no longer run the farm. That had led to him making a deal with an avaricious neighboring farm owner, who had given Mr. Phillips a loan but was charging him far too much interest. When Colt arrived home and heard about all this, he was angry, and pinned all the blame for the situation on the greedy farmer. When said man showed up at the Phillips’ farm shortly thereafter, Colt confronted him and they got into a fight. The farmer did not take kindly to the assault, and as a result, he raised the interest on Mr. Phillips’ loan so high there was no way they would ever be able to repay it, effectively losing the family farm.

Seeing the pain in his father’s eyes afterward made Colt finally realize what he had done, and how in truth he had brought about the whole situation. Filled with shame and unable to face his family, he left home once again, this time for good. He had no desire to return to the city, so he found somewhere new, a town called Redwood Hollow. The first thing he did upon arriving was get a job working at the local repair shop, since he knew enough about fixing farm machinery to translate into fixing cars. And this time, Colt has sworn to be diligent and not slack off his work, hoping the different atmosphere of the town will help. But he still feels remorse for the pain and loss he caused his family, and even though he fears he can never see them again, he nevertheless wishes he could, if only to apologize.

WANTED CONNECTIONS

Friends -- He'd certainly like to make some in town!

Lover / Potential significant other -- He'd like one of those too!

People he met during his time in the city -- If they were in his friend circle, though, they'd be bad news!

Someone who knew him from the farm -- There's a bunch of those!

Enemies -- Why not!

Bar buddies -- He can have plenty of those!

WANTED PLOTS / PLOT IDEAS

Colt falls back into bad habits! He got in trouble in the city because he got carried away with partying. Someone could tempt him back into said bad habits, and he could be at risk of screwing up in Redwood Hollow the same way he did before.

Colt is great at hauling things! Of course, not everything goes well all the time, so he could have some catastrophe while attempting to haul something (especially something fragile). Your muse could be involved or just a witness to the epic failure and what may come out of it!

He definitely is stubborn and can be ornery, so Colt also definitely holds a grudge. But it would be great to see him have to cooperate with someone with whom he has a grudge. Maybe he might be able to finally put said grudge aside in order to get things done?

[tianarpowell]

all about tiana

Intro Post—read more to learn about tiana powell!

Character Information

Tiana Powell is a savvy, sensible twenty-four-year-old woman who aims to open her own restaurant in Redwood Hollow. She may not have the money for it yet, but every day she works hard as a cook and waitress to improve her craft and eventually reach her dream. Her passions are cooking, baking, and poetry (reading it, not writing it). Her life may seem quite singular, considering her all-consuming pursuit of a distant goal, but Tiana finds joy in places you may not expect. One such unexpected joy is her friendship with rich socialite Charlotte La Bouff. Another is Tiana’s pet rabbit, Doris, who Tiana makes sure to pet fondly every morning before work.

Tiana is hardworking to a fault. Many of her peers have tried in vain to turn Tiana from her work for a single night. She’s missed new movies, potential dates, and even her own birthday party that she herself organized for the sake of her jobs. Does Tiana just love cooking that much? Well, yes and no—she adores cooking, but more than that, she values effort for the sake of a worthy goal. This doesn’t mean she would have disliked those new movies or potential dates. Rather, Tiana has become comfortable—perhaps too comfortable—with sacrifice. Her father and mother raised her with kindness and respect, so kindness and respect are what she gives to others. Those who overly burden others, however, will see a sterner side of Tiana.

Some in Redwood Hollow are well-off, but Tiana is not. She has never lived that lifestyle, despite her close friendship with Charlotte, so aspects of a comfortable life will strike her as strange. Furthermore, her father died when she was a child, so Tiana may come across as sentimental during certain moments (on her father’s birthday, for example). Finally, Tiana is a determined person but has little actual experience in a lot of areas (athletics, romance, and social media, to name a few). She will not dazzle if she enters these arenas for the first time, so be warned.

Wanted Connections

a fellow cook—Tiana loves to talk shop with other chefs, whether amateur or pro. If your character loves to cook for friends and family or even just likes baking cookies, Tiana would appreciate a chat with you!

a fellow poetry fan—Poetry is something that brings Tiana happiness. If you love poets like Langston Hughes (Tiana’s favorite) or E.E. Cummings, hit Tiana up!

a romantic connection—Tiana is unique in that she is so intensely focused on work, to the exclusion of other things in life. This makes any chemistry she has with another person more slow-burn, with an emphasis on tension. Let me know if you’re interested in giving this a try!

Wanted Plots

road trip—Tiana has no interest in leaving Redwood Hollow, but her dream vacation, if she were to ever take one, is a “road trip” of sorts—going from one side of town to the other over the course of a week, discovering shops and restaurants along the way. She would love a handful of girls to accompany her…in the event she ever takes a work vacation, that is.

animal lovers needed—When Tiana’s pet rabbit Doris stops eating, Tiana needs to figure out what the problem is. But, more importantly, she craves the comfort of fellow pet owners who know how it feels to have a sick pet.

new hobby—Tiana’s life is very mundane. This would change with a new hobby, be it knitting or gaming. Though Tiana doesn’t have much free time, she would actually love to learn something new from a more seasoned hobbyist.

Taken Connections

best friend forever—Charlotte La Bouff is Tiana’s closest friend, her greatest confidant, her shoulder to cry on. The friends have been inseparable for years now, and Tiana is grateful to Charlotte for everything she’s done, big or small.

i know you’re trouble—Tiana may not know very much about Naveen Maldonia, but she’s convinced that he’s the most arrogant man she’s ever met. She is sure that he feels very little empathy for people like her. This angers her.

Other

Wanted Character: Cabell Facilier—Tiana and Facilier have a fascinating dynamic in The Princess and the Frog, and I would love to see them clash over their very different values.

Wanted Bio: Moana of Motunui—Tiana and Moana would understand one another’s pursuit of a lofty dream. I can see the two becoming good friends.

[francispprice]

task 12: secrets seven

read more to learn seven secrets about francis price!

Secret 1: Francis feels somewhat strongly about this: his living conditions need to be exactly how he operates and thinks, or he will experience a real panic attack. He’s come home in the recent past to find that his parents “cleaned” his living areas and bedroom for him, and the fallout was always severe. When Francis explains that he prefers his spaces to be his, this secret is the one he will always go into.

Secret 2: Francis would similarly have a real panic attack if this secret made its way to public knowledge: he worked hard to find the best clothing and jewelry (his ears are pierced) for his body type and spent an entire year researching online the coolest styles for his personality and style of expression. When people know that you tried very hard for your fashion sense, Francis has seen, they tend to devalue your wardrobe choices afterward. Francis will make sure that he is the only one who understands the effort that went into, and still does go into, his signature look.

Secret 3: Francis won’t mind if his friends or acquaintances ever learn this: he has perfect pitch. The Prices were not a musical family, so Francis discovered this natural gift in the spring of fourth grade, when he took part in an elementary production of Grease. (He played slick talker Sonny.) His gift of accurate vocal pitch discovered, Francis went on to learn the guitar chords for all of his favorite songs, including 80’s hits “You Might Think” by the Cars and “Take On Me” by a-ha. He still plays these songs in his bedroom and sings along to unwind after long school days.

Secret 4: Francis’s friends and immediate family understand that Francis possesses no instinct for physical danger. He would walk into traffic if he didn’t have a reason to stop and think about it, such as the bright red hand sign that urges one to wait to cross. If Francis ever gets seriously hurt—and he’s come very, very close—he will only have himself to blame for not letting this secret spread more widely.

Secret 5: Only Francis’s mother knows that Francis likes 80’s music more than any other type. Francis had to tell her in the summer after fourth grade so that she would buy him his guitar.

Secret 6: Francis wishes that he could talk about this more openly, but people wouldn’t understand his rationale behind using both he and they for his pronouns. The topic is widely diminished by those who do not want to learn more about it and choose to make fun of it. Francis likes the pronoun they because it shows that he is more than societal gender roles would imply. He likes the pronoun he because it shows that he is brave enough to identify as a man in a culture in which men consistently drop the ball.

Secret 7: Francis has had “prophetic” dreams before and entirely attributes his biggest successes to them. Francis knows that no one would ever believe him; he prefers for people to think he’s normal. That said, Francis’s dreams have encouraged him to choose, for example, the first option instead of the second option, which helped him meet a good friend of his at a summer camp that the first option he encountered during his day led to. They have also told him to stay home from school on a day during which the entire school experienced a three-hour fire drill, for reasons that Francis will openly talk about. The three-hour fire drill would have been disastrous for someone as spontaneous and free-spirited as Francis. Francis fears his entire circle turning against him and calling him “crazy” for believing in this special gift.

HAPPIESTPLACEHQ Task 5 - Family (part two)

Presenting the Laverne sisters

[happiestplacehq]

Task Eleven → Intro & Connections

Welcome to our first mandatory task! As I’m sure you have all heard me wax poetic about by now, this task has been created with the intention of helping you all connect better to your fellow writers, and to give you and your partners a head start when it comes to plotting and coming up with connections for your characters. Below you will find a list of plot and connection ideas to help you get started. Now, let me explain the task at hand.

Firstly, treat this like you might do an intro post.

Using the template below as a guide (you can set it out any way you wish, this is just to help you get started) each player must create a post detailing things they are looking for for their characters. There are suggestions in the template for what other things may be useful to include. Anything that is required is marked in bold with an asterisk*. I would then like this post to be pinned to the top of your character blog, or added in some way to your current pinned post, so it is easily accessible to all players. It is up to you if you link it in your theme.

For each character you should have a minimum of 3 connection types, and a further 3 fleshed out plot ideas you are looking for. The more specific you are, the better, but I understand that sometimes a vague title is enough. If there is a plot you really want for your character, put it here! The people need to know.

If you have multiple characters you do not need to fill this out for all of them immediately, but should all be completed by the end of next month. Start with your characters that have less connections when in doubt. Please note that your connections should be varied, and not all focus on shipping and romance, in order to get a good range to work within.

I’m borrowing one of Paige’s as an example of a more fleshed out connections & intro post [here]. This one by Claire is also in depth [here]. I know a few of you have similar posts already but please take the time to make a new post for this task so I can reblog it to @redwoodhollowreview and make sure to tag the blog as well!

Please tag your posts with #happiestplacetask and #happiestplacetask11 so everyone can see. This task is mandatory and will be reblogged.

Deziree Tremaine // 22 // Fashion Design Major // She/Her [Biography tba.]

+ Disciplined, Calculating, Loyal - Jealous, Cold, Tactless

Quick Facts:

Only call her Dezi if she likes you.

Tries very, very hard to stay on trend and look as fashionable as humanly possible. Yes she is judging your fit.

LOVES shoes and bags. Would sell her soul for a Birkin.

Could wax poetic on the history of Chanel, Prada and Mugler.

Can be incredibly standoffish and difficult to warm up.

Bisexual, but doesn’t like people enough to do anything about it.

She is very well practised in the art of people pleasing, batting her eyelashes, saying the right thing, in an attempt to get a foot in the right places, but as of late has become disillusioned by it. It really isn’t getting her anywhere.

As much as Deziree Tremaine wants to be in the “In-Crowd” she actually, deep down, hates that she’s so desperate to be in with the In. She has always been just on the edge of it, never quite getting the footing she was aiming for.

Forever trying to live up to Mother Tremaine’s impossible standards, seek her approval, and do exactly what mommy dearest wants.

The problem is that Ms. Tremaine has been in prison for going on 2 years (?) which has left Dezi effectively “purposeless”. She doesn’t really know who she is without her mother dictating her life choices. Anastasia and Deziree have both been keeping their mother’s whereabouts a massive secret, which is difficult with people from her old circles ask where she is. The current lie is that she’s on a spa retreat for her health.

On top of that, coming to terms with the fact that their mom had been abusing Ella for years, and that they may well have been victims themselves in different ways is really difficult when you can’t afford a therapist and you’re sure all of your friends were just status symbols.

Dezi has cut herself off emotionally from everything, and is hasn’t really been able to feel anything for months now.

At this point Deziree isn’t sure if she actually has any real friends.

She has no money (except from the secret job she has to try to pay back Ella all the rent she owes her). Deziree really hates that she can’t just buy new shoes on a whim now.

Fun Fact: she doesn’t have a bio on the main because I’m layzee~

Taken Connections

Sister - Anastasia Tremaine @itsme-anastasia​

Ex-Step-Sister - Ella Fontaine @sweetellafontaine​

Closest Friend - Hans Sør @hans-omedevil​

A Something - Travis Montgomery @but-theylovehim (It’s tooooootally not a crush, they were just really good strawberries.)

Other Friends - Charotte La Bouff @charlxttelabouff​ Penelope Deery @penelopedeery

Friends for Clout - Minnie Myshkin @minniemyshkin​

Tries to be in their In-Crowd - The Ashleys

Important Relationships

Ex-Step-Sister - Ella Fontaine

When Deziree first learned that she was going to be getting a new step-sister, because Mom was marrying some guy, she was so excited that she couldn’t shut up about it. Yeah, she had her real sister Anastasia, but a new sister and friend sounded so cool! (She was about 6 at the time, and unjaded. Anastasia was about 8, and this new girl, Ella, 10).

Ms. Tremaine put a quick stop to that excitement, however, and instructed that Deziree was not to make friends with her, as she wasn’t really her family. She kept them separate in all affairs. When Ella’s father passed, Ms. Tremaine’s treatment of Ella only worsened.

Over the years, under the influence of mom, Deziree didn’t treat Ella with much kindness (though there had always been that little niggling in the back of her head that she wanted to be friends with Ella but wasn’t allowed, and had to keep up the act to please her mom and avoid having the treatment turned on herself and Anastasia).

She became jealous of Ella -she was pretty and gentle and kind despite everything- especially of the attention that her mom devoted to Ella, even if it was negative. Deziree’s opinion of Ella was skewed by her mom’s view of her -Deziree had to be better than Ella to win mom’s affection (of which there was very little) and being better than Ella was hard because Ella was perfect.

When Ella won her court case against Ms. Tremaine, Ella agreed to let the sisters stay in her house as long as they paid rent. Deziree was conflicted, knowing her part in Ella’s treatment and knowing that the chances of mending their relationship were slim, but ultimately agreed when she realised she had nowhere else to go.

Ella has always treated Deziree with kindness despite it all.

Their relationship is incredibly strained but she is taking baby steps to opening up to her ex-step-sister to maybe one day become friends after all. At the very least, she is trying to treat her with more sympathy than she ever did before.

Wanted Connections / Wanted Plots

“Friends” - People who Deziree claims to be friends with, or people who were linked to the world of the wealthy. You know, they say they’re all, like, totally BFFs, come be in my selfie! But really they couldn’t tell you 2 interesting facts about each other after all the small talk at parties.

Mentor or Fashion School Professor - Deziree is a fashion student but has always felt overshadowed by Ella’s attendance on the same course, and the fact Ella went on to open her own fashion business. She may be vain, but her self-esteem isn’t actually that great, and she could use a guiding hand that genuinely wants to see her succeed. OR on the other hand, a professor who just can’t stop comparing her to the wonderful Ella and Deziree has to prove them wrong.

Bullied - LBR Deziree was a bully in high school because she thought it would get her in with the cool kids. Someone from Deziree’s year or below at school that she picked on.

Friends of Lady Tremaine - Lady Tremaine knew many, many people (but not enough people knew her or her daughters for her liking). Someone has most certainly noticed she hasn’t been to any functions recently. Deziree will continue lying about it. Probably older people of Redwood Hollow, and more likely to be well-off.

A Real Friend - Deziree really needs to make her first real friend that isn’t part of the wealthy world she has always aspired to be a part of. Good luck to whoever dares try.

I actually don’t have many wanted plots for Deziree that don’t link to the wanted connections above. She really just needs warming up and to get out of the cycle of trying to fit in with crowds that don’t want her. Dezi is stuck in her ‘I don’t know who I am but I don’t know I don’t know who I am’ phase right now so anything that gets her out of her shell and her comfort zone. I’m willing to talk plots for her! If she fits a connection you want or a plot, I’m down.

Wanted Characters

With Bios: Camilla Deville & Patricia “Patty” Marriane

Camilla Deville - A local designer who owns her own fashion store in town. Deziree is desperate to with for her, in the store and eventually as part of her design team.

Patricia Marriane - Ella’s Godmother / Babysitter. I just think it would be an interesting dynamic to explore, as Patricia takes care of Ella and she knows of Deziree’s part in her mistreatment.

Nani Pelekai // Thirty // Owner of Ohana Dance Studios // She/Her [Biography]

+ Hard-Working, Devoted, Feisty - Sarcastic, Stern, Irritable

Quick Facts:

Moved to Redwood Hollow from Hawai’i when she was 14 because of her dad’s job. They were supposed to move back when dad’s 5-year contract ended, but they didn’t get that far. The Pelekai’s still live in the house that their parents bought when they moved to Redwood Hollow.

#Disaster Bisexual - has for sure had the hots for all of her best friends at some point, and the only person that knows this is her Super Secret Diary.

Never sits down. Runs on caffeine. Tries to cook but is fucking awful at it. Sleep, whomst?

Has worked just about every single job going in Redwood Hollow at some point in the past 12 years.

Was a surfing champion in Hawai’i in her teens, and often went back during the summer to compete after moving to Redwood Hollow.

Was accepted to Redwood College for Dance & Sports Sciences on a sports scholarship, and had started her first year before ultimately dropping out to look after Lilo.

Fought tooth and nail to keep her family together, and will absolutely fight anyone who gets in the way of that. (To be fair, she’ll fight you for less. Don’t piss her off unless you want to be absolutely roasted to death.)

Drives an absolutely ancient car that only has a cassette player. She saved up for it as a teen through odd jobs and competition earnings, and finally had enough to buy her first car the year after her parents died. She hasn’t been able to afford another since.

Nani is super friendly and can talk to just about anyone, but be warned, she is also extremely sarcastic and takes no bullshit from anybody. She will call you out.

Taken Connections

Ohana - Lilo Pelekai (Sister) @imsorryibityoux, Stephen Pelekai (Adopted Brother)

Housemates - Gwen Pleakley @gwen-pleakley, Javi Jookiba @javi-jookiba

Besties - David Kawena (See Below), Babette Dust @babettedust, Becky Detweiler @beckydetweiler, Victor Lumier @victorlumiere

Relationships

What Are We? Boyfriend - Paxton Patterson @paxtonpatterson​

Nani and Paxton are one giant question mark, and one big avoided answer. They’re totally dating, but they’re both also totally stupid and in denial about. Everyone can see it. Paxton makes Nani feel all sorts of ways -happy being the main one- and she’s absolutely terrified she’s going to fuck it up by putting a label on it. She’s also scared that if she lets herself focus too much on herself and a relationship, she’ll miss something with Lilo. She will come out with the excuse that she’s “too busy” for all that mushy romance shit, but let’s be real, one look at Paxton’s puppy dog-eyes and floppy hair and she’s swooning. Plus, he’s a great cook, prime roasting fodder, and makes for a very comfortable napping location.

Ex-Boyfriend - Freddie “Flash” Slothmore @flash-hundredyarddash

They dated for a while waaaay back in the day. Nani thought she was ready for dating again but it was this relationship that made her realise that there was no room for that in her life when looking after her kid sister, and working 3 jobs. Freddie wanted them to go off into the world on some chill adventures, which sounded great in theory, but wouldn’t work in practice. The relationship ended amicably and they’re still friends.

Other Connections:

TJ Detweiler @tj-detweiler - Becky’s Brother. Pain in the ass. Would like to be paid for babysitting him, thanks.

Patrick Patterson @patrickpattersxn - Paxton’s Brother. They’ve bonded over absolutely roasting Paxton, and each other, apparently.

Elsa Arendelle @magicalelsaarendelle

Mrs Hasagawa - Nani worked at her Fruit Stall. She is now the bane of her and Paxton’s life. Ring-Leader of the Yoga Ladies.

Mary Gibbs @itsmarygibbs & Adam Legrand @magicaladamlegrand​

Persephone Kore @itspersephxne​ - The apparent mastermind behind setting up her and Paxton.

Hayden Bodaway @haydenbodaway​ - Paxton’s “Dad”/ Boss. Nani is stupidly intimidated by him though she would like to think otherwise, and makes an arse of herself every time she’s in the same room as him.

Wanted Connections:

The Yoga Ladies - Anyone can be a Yoga Lady. They have all banded together to give Nani shit about her love life, and honestly probably do that with half the town. Generally all older people in town, but basically anyone that attends the Yoga Class can fall under this category.

Lilo’s Friends (and enemies)

People that attend dance classes at her studio, or have kids/ siblings etc. that go.

Past Employers & Past Colleagues - Until Nani took over running the dance studio, she had to work every job she could get to keep her house, car, and siblings well-fed. If your character owns a business or is a manager, there’s a high chance that Nani has worked for them at some point. Whether she was fired, or quit, is all up for discussion. And she definitely knows a ton of people from having worked with them too.

Enemies - Nani needs someone that just really grinds her gears in the worst possible way.

Surf Buddies - Either current surf buddies or old surf buddies from her competition days

Wanted Plots / Plot Ideas

Watch Where You’re Going, Stupid Head! - Someone gets on Nani’s bad side for one reason or another. Maybe they almost hit her with their car and she proceeds to stick a boot in their bumper and she has to pay for the damages, or someone just catches her on a really bad day.

Two Left Feet - Nani has been tasked with teaching someone to dance, either because they want to build their confidence, or because they want to surprise someone, or anything really, but it turns out they have the coordination of a shopping cart.

Green Eyes - Would an Are-They-Dating? plot be complete without a little jealousy added into the mix to spice things up a little? Either Nani is jealous of someone who had been eyeing Paxton up at the bar, or she misconstrued a look from Paxton to someone else as potential flirting and honed in on that poor person instead of calling Paxton out, because she’s totally not jealous or anything.

Someone brings in David Kawena (see below) for the drama lmfao

Honestly, I don’t have too many wanted plot ideas for Nani that wouldn’t be heavily connection driven, so feel free to message me to spitball anything you want from Nani!

Wanted Characters

Characters I would love to see taken/ an OC for (in relation to Nani) that one day might get bios:

DAVID KAWENA my beloved! - Nani’s all-time best friend. They grew up together, and David was there for Nani and Lilo when their parents died. David was always Nani’s rock, her voice of reason, and her shoulder to cry on. At some point there were mutual feelings, and they almost dated multiple times, but Nani never acted on her feelings because she was afraid of ruining their friendship. (David was too important to her to lose him over something as stupid as dating.)

Honestly, would love to say they were best friends in Hawai’i and he came here to start college with Nani, and then tragedy struck, but can totally work with anything here. He either has been here this whole time, or had to move back to The Island a few years ago but Nani still keeps him updated on everything.

(And honestly who doesn’t love a bit of almost-lovers drama? Especially now that Nani is almost-kinda-sorta dating Paxton amarite???)

MOSES PULOKI - In the movie, this is Lilo’s Hula Teacher. Totally up for spitballing ideas on this one, but either he was Nani & Lilo’s childhood Hula Teacher, now in Redwood Hollow as a trainer or retiree, or he’s the person Nani took over the studio from.

With Bios: Stephen Pelakai & Cobra Bubbles

Stephen Pelakai - Nani & Lilo’s Adopted Brother. Honestly, as if social work wasn’t complicated enough they had to go and adopt Stephen into the family. Nani is listed as his guardian, as she is with Lilo, but she calls him little brother.

Cobra Bubbles - The Pelekai family social worker. Nani couldn’t see it at the time, but Bubbles really was looking out for Nani to make sure she did what was best for Lilo. I just think it would be really fun to see their dynamic now that Nani isn’t fighting against him all the time, and the risk of Lilo being taken away is now 0 because she’s not a minor anymore.

Alice Little // 22 // Creative Writing Major // They/Them [Biography]

+ Creative, Curious, Friendly - Over-Imaginative, Impulsive, Careless

Quick Facts:

Alice Little has always been a dreamer. Sometimes it does them well, but often it simply leads to trouble.

They have a funny way of looking at the world, and thus, sometimes find it difficult relating to their peers. Growing up, classmates found Alice “odd”, but it didn’t bother them, as they didn’t mind going off and exploring on their own.

Alice is non-binary, using they/them pronouns, and is an ace lesbian.

Has a pet cat named Dinah.

Will talk your ear off if given the chance, especially if it’s about something weird or will lead to a deep, philosophical conversation. Be prepared for Alice asking 100 questions a day.

Alice disappeared for over a month in 2021, after the town’s annual Halloween party. They were found in the woods in the middle of December, returning with confusion and memory issues that they are still recovering from. [Here] and [Here] and [Here].

Alice hasn’t been “right” since they returned but is desperately trying to ignore it and return to normal again. Alice said they don’t feel like themself anymore, and they are certain they have the memories of “another Alice”.

Taken Connections

Best Friend - Alba Laplan @vvhitevvabbit

God-Mother - Lorelai Hart @queencfharts - A close family friend, turned Alice’s God-Mother. They have a complicated relationship, and has only gotten more complicated after Alice was found.

Friends - Berlioz Beaumont @berlioz-beaumont, Sofia Bach @sofia-bach, Anastasia Tremaine @itsme-anastasia Rose Bryar @itsrosebryar

A Question Mark? - Rita Jacobs @ritasaysrelax - Rita keeps hanging around Alice. At first Alice thought she just wanted to be friends but is now suspecting malicious intent when Rita revealed information about Alice’s family that she couldn’t have known.

An Acquaintance - Cyrus Geennhiww @cyrus-geennhiew

The “Rescuer” - Toulouse Beaumont @beaumont-ague - Toulouse found Alice in the woods after they went missing.

Wanted Connections:

Family - Alice’s sister, Mia, in particular.

A Crush - with the pure intention of this being one-sided. I just think it would be cute for Alice to have a playground crush on someone.

Old Bully - someone that used to pick on Alice for being weird in high school.

Therapist - Alice has been in and out of therapy since they were a kid. They were back at it again for a while but have stopped going, which probably isn’t a good thing.

The Suspicious - Anyone who is as suspicious about the weird things happening around town as Alice is. Someone willing to explore hunches or places with Alice. Maybe even someone who wants to know what happened to Alice (with or without their best interest as heart).

Honestly, anyone who feels sorry for Alice disappearing. Maybe they’re awkward about it. Maybe they’re weird about it. Maybe they can’t stop coddling Alice.

Wanted Plots / Plot Ideas

You Shouldn’t Be Here - Alice is a nosy parker, and very often finds themself exploring places they shouldn’t be. Sometimes they don’t even realise they’ve wandered into the wrong place before it’s too late. Sometimes they do. They have been known to wander into dangerous buildings and so on. In this idea, Alice gets caught by your character somewhere they shouldn’t be and it leads to all sort of trouble. (Or, your character and Alice end up exploring this place together!) They could just be trespassing, or they could overhear a conversation they weren’t supposed to. Totally up for spitballing on this one!

Gullible - Alice is roped into something they should have known better than to get roped into. Alice can be pretty gullible, and fairly easily lead if you tap into their gullibility. This, naturally, must lead to some sort of trouble or guilt or emotions or smthn. Alice is definitely going to be all over the place emotionally and mentally again fairly soon due to some plot developments, so is a prime candidate for some manipulation.

Y’know what tho, someone could very easily peer-pressure / persuade Alice into getting high. Who knows what kind of weird conversation you’d get out of them then.

If there’s anything you’ve ever wanted Alice for but haven’t wanted to ask, hit me with it now! I’m always looking for more threads and plots for Alice. They don’t have as many threads / connections as some of my other characters and I’d really love some more!

Wanted Characters

Characters I would love to see taken/ an OC for (in relation to Alice) that one day might get bios:

MIA LITTLE - Alice’s older sister. Mia is level-headed, strict (to the point of being stern) and hard-working. While she loves Alice dearly, the two often clash with one another, due to having oppositional personality traits. Mia wants what is best for Alice, but is frustrated that Alice is so scatterbrained and doesn’t focus enough on the important things, such as academics and work. Alice gets frustrated that Mia tries to be “mom” instead of treating them like a sister, and wishes she wasn’t so uptight about everything.

Any other weird and wonderful background character from AIW if you’re looking for someone vague enough to build a character around. The Tweedles? Pat the Dodo? The Doorknob? So many options!

With Bios: Chelsea Katz & Maddison Harrigan

Chelsea Katz - A reporter for The Daily Hollow, who is trying to investigate & report on the weird goings-on in town without losing their job. They’ve likely interview Alice about their disappearance, and in turn Alice has likely picked her brain about a few things in the past.

Maddison Harrigan - Co-Owner of the Hatter & Hare. Alice visits their store fairly often to see what curiosities they have in. Alice has yet to be invited to one of the famous Hatter & Hare tea parties, but would absolutely love to attend one day.

HAPPIESTPLACEHQ TASK 11 - INTRO & CONNECTIONS

olivia flaversham ~ twenty-two ~ criminology student ~ she/her (cis woman, asexual)

[ bio / muse / headcanons / spotify ]

Character Information

Originally hailing from Edinburgh, Olivia has been living for the last four years in Redwood Hollow with her father, Hiram, a toymaker and owner of a tiny souvenir shop.

Hiram was the victim of a kidnapping when his daughter was only eight years old, so ever since that awful event he has been rather overprotective of his daughter.

The Flavershams moved to this quiet little American town searching for peace, and for Olivia to study Criminology at Redwood College, on the recommendation of Dr Dawson, a friend of the family.

Olivia is extremely kind and friendly to all, though she is also quite excitable, slightly naïve, and just a little bit bratty, as a result from her sheltered upbringing.

With the wave of poisonings and thefts happening around town, despite her inexperience, Olivia is very much eager to help with the investigation and bring justice to her new home.

Wanted Connections

Friends: As the warm and sociable person she is, Olivia has a bunch of friends already whom she trusts and loves. She’s always excited to establish new relationships though –the more the merrier!

Professors: In order to be an excellent investigator, one needs a little guidance. Olivia is definitely someone happy to learn, if that helps her getting closer to her dream of becoming a Criminologist.

Partners: There's a mystery in town, and Olivia is determined to be the one to solve it. To be able to do that, however, she needs other investigators –let's say, the Watson to her Holmes.

Plot Ideas

Knitting Buddy: Apart from studying, reading and writing, Olivia's next favorite pastime is knitting, and would love for your character to join her with possible patterns and ideas. Yes, it's kind of a typical granny hobby ��so that means it's plenty tried and tested!

Reluctant Associates: Olivia prides herself on being a very amiable girl: that doesn't mean that everyone has to love her. Maybe your character has to share a class with her, or is a fellow volunteer at the RHPD, and isn't exactly overjoyed at having to withstand her antics all day long.

Mysterious Leads: Your character might be aware of Olivia's naiveté and inexperience, and so decides to make her a harmless (or not) prank, handing her clues leading to a dead end. Or perhaps they want to make sure Olivia stays out of their way...

Taken Connections

Friends: @xalicethewonderx, @figarofabbri, @tianarpowell

Other

I would love for Dr Dawson and Basil Baker to join! Apart from the fact that it would be awesome to have them around, I feel like either one of them could be great mentors for Olivia.

Penny's bio mentions her as a potential friend of Olivia; their shared experiences with kidnappings and parental disappearance may bring each other some mutual understanding and common ground to establish a strong friendship.

The rest of the morning—until 10:30, that is—is Tiana’s time to do hobbies or run errands. Then she drives to the Enchanted Rose Cafe to waitress. Her shifts can last through dinnertime, or, on certain days of the week, they end a little earlier so Tiana can drive to Third Street Restaurant and start cooking. Once her workplace has closed for the night, Tiana returns home and can either unwind for a bit or head straight to bed.

Days off happen every so often. When these occur, Tiana likes to spend time with family and friends. She looks forward to the day when she is working only one job and can structure her calendar more easily.
