So i request Yandere choir X Penny some time ago, and i wanted to request other thing if it's not a problem-

Yandere choir X Penny having a crush on Tammy

So if you don’t know who Tammy is, Tammy is a character that only has like two lines in Legoland, but according to fandom hcs, Tammy is a super religious/catholic girl and Penny's best friend, she is the most devout girl in town and possible tried to convert Penny when they became friends (she stopped right after), she is a kinda popular and extrovertd and tried to make Penny fit in (it failed so both of them gave up), they meet after some bullies burned Penny's backpack, then Tammy aprooched her and gave her a CD or something

If I remember her lines were: " Only the lord knows what's really cool " and something about erasing Penny's sins

I imagine that Penny has a crush on her since they meet and she mentions Tammy most of the time, like: " Tammy introduced me to this band. " " The first time i went to the fair was with Tammy. " etc.

I hope this isn't difficult! If it is you can ignore, i don't remember much of Legoland! Thanks! 💞

☁️Yandere Choir x Penny: Penny has a crush on Tammy...🌧️

⚠️WARNING: General yandere content and some religious mentions!⚠️

Ocean O'Connell Rosenberg:

When I say Ocean has never felt so furious about anything in her life, I do mean that.

Penny and Ocean have never really spoken about Tammy before. Sure, they mentioned her in conversation once or twice (it's hard not to due to the girl's popularity), but it never went further. So hearing Penny casually mention that she really likes Tammy during one of their study sessions, Ocean had to excuse herself for a moment before she had a meltdown.

Really, she tries so hard to show Penny that she's the only one the girl needs, that she will always be there, and that she is logically the best choice. So why is it that her efforts never seem to be enough? Why is it that when she is head over heels for Penny, Penny wants to go off and smooch some other girl??

It's quite frankly, outrageous.

It's safe to say Ocean is not happy with this development and she makes it known.

For the rest of the day and week, she acts sour, never snapping at Penny (She would never) but it's clear something is bothering her which leaves Penny worried. Ocean has these moments a lot, but to have it directed at her made Penny want to crawl into a hole and die..., especially since she doesn't understand what she did wrong.

And to be fair, even if Penny did ask if she had done something wrong, Ocean would just brush it off and dote on her for a bit before going back to her foul mood. Penny was thoroughly confused...

To Ocean, she had never considered Tammy a threat to her and Penny's relationship. She knew Penny and Tammy were friends, but with Tammy being so popular and with the trouble that Penny had gotten into as of late, she never gave their interactions a second glance. Apparently, that was a bad choice on her part because now she has even more to worry about.

As mentioned before, Tammy is popular. Although she is one of the few actually religious girls in St. Cassian, everyone seems to be attracted to her whether it be for her kindness or something else. Ocean would never, ever admit this out loud but... god, she was jealous of Tammy, like, really jealous.

Ocean has always had to try hard in life, as much as she didn't want to admit it, nothing really came easy to her. 9/10, she had to drag herself to study and complete all her extra credit assignments just because she wanted that 1 extra point. Ocean O'Connell Rosenberg was successful, but that came at the cost of burnout and being alone. That's why seeing someone like Tammy be so popular and successful in her own right and not even lifting a finger to get it makes her so upset. Why is this so hard for her? How come she is the one who gets stuck with no friends? Hell, Ocean knows the majority of people don't like her at St. Cassian because of her ways, so why do people like Tammy??

Ocean just doesn't get it..., good thing this will only be a temporary setback. :)

After a good week and a half of moping over Penny's newfound crush, Ocean is quick to pull herself back together and get to work. She didn't know exactly what she wanted to do about this yet, but she knew she had to work quick and after a night of brainstorming, Ocean had a good idea.

She was going to do something she never would have done if this situation didn't arise in the first place, something she was kind of afraid to do...

It was Thursday afternoon, right before choir rehearsals started. Earlier that day, Ocean had managed to convince Tammy to meet her after school so she could talk to her about something, intentionally being very vague about the whole thing. Once Tammy was there, Ocean's plan could finally be enacted... Pulling out the fake tears and the best acting she could manage, she was quick to lie about Penny to Tammy. Oddly enough, her plan was to get Tammy to see how "awful" Penny was and to leave her alone "lest her own soul be damned."

Was it a dirty tactic? Maybe, but Tammy, after hearing about all these horrid things Penny had supposedly done (some lies, some truths,) was pressured into agreeing with Ocean to stay away. Ocean made sure to cover her tracks also by making Tammy promise to never tell Penny she said this and that she was too far in to leave Penny, unfortunately.

And like things always seemed to, everything went perfectly and Penny was kind of a mess during rehearsals.

Penny is, of course, devastated by the sudden news from Tammy that she can't be near her anymore, something about her being "unholy?" It was kind of a blur as Penny had to restrain herself from bawling on the spot.

For days on end, she was inconsolable. Tammy was her first real crush if you don't count any celebrity crushes and she thought everything was going so well... What changed to make Tammy hate her so suddenly? First Ocean and now her.

Penny didn't need to worry though as Ocean was quick to console the girl, a wide smile on her face all the while...

Noel Gruber:

Honestly, it really wasn't hard for Noel to see that Penny was gaining a crush.

It was quite obvious with the way she and Tammy were hanging out more than ever, how Penny started mentioning Tammy more often, and a lot of other signs he picked up over the course of a few weeks. He's the most romantic boy in town, he knows a thing or two about love, of course, he would be one of the first people to know she has a crush even before Penny knew.

And as much as he wanted to say that he was happy for Penny, that he was incredibly eager to help her get the girl of her dreams... He wasn't.

He wasn't at all, in fact, Noel couldn't help but be very suspicious of this development.

It just seemed odd to him that Tammy was suddenly so buddy-buddy with Penny for no reason, and someone as popular and highly religious as her was hanging out with someone with a less-than-stellar track record.

Plus, he's seen every "religious kid" here, Noel knows how they tick and he just doesn't buy that Tammy is hanging around Penny for pure reasons.

Granted, he doesn't know Tammy personally as he's sure no one would even let him glance at her in fear of her catching the "gay disease" or something stupid from him, but that definitely doesn't stop him from downplaying her to Penny.

Anytime Tammy is brought up, Noel just dies inside a little more... He doesn't mean to be so harsh, but as Penny talks about her in the giddy way she does, he can't help but make a few snide comments about the girl here and there. He wasn't exactly subtle with his distaste for her and Penny was quick to learn to stop bringing her up so often around him...

Penny didn't quite get why he was so offset by Tammy, they haven't even met so why does he get so sour when she's brought up? It really sucks too cause Penny did want them to meet at some point but now she's not too sure that would be a good idea...

Over time Noel's paranoia about Tammy just kept getting worse and worse... He's never thought about anything other than The Blue Angel and Penny this much and it's starting to aggravate him. He doesn't need to spend his nights bashing Tammy in his head or thinking about how to get Penny away from her.

But simultaneously, it was so easy to fall into the headspace when he knew Penny was so close to leaving him... There is no way on god's green earth that he's gonna let that happen but he doesn't know how to stop it unless he comes clean to Penny about his feelings on Tammy.

And without many options, he knew he would just have to take that risk.

When the week was finally over and the weekend came around, Noel had invited Penny over for one of their usual hangouts. He tried his best to not come off too strongly at the start, he didn't want to scare her off or anything by suddenly insulting the girl she was crushing on... They just talked for a while and watched a movie to settle in.

Noel wasn't sure if there even was a right time to tell her something like this..., that the person whom she considers a brother figure hates her crush's guts, but as the night neared, he knew that time would have to be soon.

...Yeah, he told her right before she left.

Penny was grabbing her things, making sure she didn't leave behind anything as Noel stood awkwardly to the side, internally trying not to panic as he thought about how to start the conversation. Snapping out of his thoughts as he heard the zipper of her purse, Penny turning towards him to bid him goodnight, the words, "I don't trust Tammy," Suddenly flooded out of him much to the shock of both him and her.

After a deafening pause, more of his feelings came out before Penny even got a chance to react. All of the built-up feelings he's had for the past few weeks were finally being acknowledged by both her and him, no longer being held back by Noel's fears. Of course, he was at least able to catch himself before his words could start slipping into a concerning territory that Penny didn't need to know about, it can't hurt her to not know that he is so constantly worried about her that he stalks her profusely or that he often thinks about keeping her trapped in his house...

...Anywho, his ramblings about his distrust of Tammy and how he's been hurt by those kinds of people in the past were met with a lukewarm reception. Penny was seriously conflicted about how to feel at the moment and it was really hard to think about it when Noel's words started getting a little more desperate.

Needing to just get away from him for just a moment, she simply replies to his ramblings with, "I'll think about it Noel, see you later." A response that delighted and terrified him to the core as she left his house, he could really only hope she made the right choice before he had to take some drastic measures... (He also totally spent the night tossing and turning from the anxiety of awaiting her response-)

Penny couldn't really believe her ears after hearing what was really bothering Noel all this time. She knew he didn't love her, but hearing the words come out of his mouth of how much he hated her was so devastating to hear.

Come on, Noel is like another brother to her and honestly, one she talks to about a lot more things than she can to Ezra, she didn't want to lose him over a crush... She does love Tammy, but who knows if that would even work out, especially with all the trouble she got into. Would Tammy still want to hang out with her if she heard about it? For some reason, Penny highly doubts it.

Penny needed Noel.

She knew it, he knew it.

The next morning for both Penny and Noel was filled with apologies from both of them and a promise. The promise is to not talk to Tammy again.

Really, Noel knew Penny was smart enough to make the right choice.

Mischa Bachinski:

Mischa has this belief that he has the complete right to go through Penny's phone at any moment he pleases, for safety reasons of course.

Penny grew up on a community farm without a lick of the internet so it makes sense she is not the most tech-savvy person in the world. She literally forgets where her phone is half the time and although she likes it, she gets frustrated with it quite easily. So why not have her loving boyfriend friend help her out and make sure she didn't download any viruses or is talking to anyone fishy!

It's all for her benefit, really.

Today was like any other weekend, Penny had left Mischa's room to use the restroom (much to his foster parent's dismay, he's sure,) and Mischa was using this opportunity to look through Penny's phone. Nothing stood out at first, she was rarely on it anyway and nothing looked like it had changed since yesterday...

Then the phone rings as a notification drops down, showing a text from a girl named Tammy... Mischa's eyebrows furrow in confusion as he clicks on the notification, eyes quickly scanning the words of Tammy and Penny's various conversations, all seeming a little too affectionate for normal friends.

As each word is processed in his brain, he feels his gut sink lower and lower as the familiar feelings of rage also tingle inside of him. Mischa had heard of Tammy from others before and he thinks Penny might have mentioned her name once or twice, but he's never interacted with the girl himself. So, who does she think she is being so flirty with his friend? What gives her the idea that it's okay to send morning and goodnight texts to Penny, heart pretty much every single text Penny sends, and be so sickeningly sweet to Penny??

He had to put the phone down for a second before his rage started really consuming him, jealousy also made its way into the mass of feelings he was experiencing at the moment.

He knew he needed to do something about this, he couldn't just let Tammy pester Penny when it was so obvious that she wanted nothing to do with the girl and was just being polite! (Lol, keep telling yourself that Mischa.) Penny shouldn't have to worry about insolent people like her when he's all she needs.

Does Mischa know of Tammy? Not really no. He's sure he's probably heard her name once or twice, most likely when speaking to Penny, but he tends to just block people's names out when they aren't someone he cares about.

Plus, even if he did know Tammy personally, that definitely wouldn't stop the immense feelings of jealousy that were rearing its ugly head inside of him when he looked at her and Penny's messages. Really, he can barely handle the choir's constant advances on her, what makes anyone think he can handle a person he barely knows advances??

He's gonna make Tammy stop bothering Penny in one way or another... In fact, there is one way he is quite familiar with that has proved to stop these kinds of nuisances in the past. Physical approaches to these situations did always tend to be his favorite.

Now despite what he's sure a lot of people think about him, he isn't a violent person, especially towards women. He doesn't plan to treat Tammy too harshly just to..., rough her up a bit, nothing too crazy. He knows people will start getting suspicious if it is too bad after all.

With Mischa not knowing Tammy personally and the fact that she was pretty popular, Mischa did find it tedious to get an ounce of alone time with her, it was like everywhere she went there were at minimum 3 people waiting to speak with her. It took a good week to find a spare moment where she was alone. It was before school outside of the back of the building, Tammy's face wearing a bright smile as she texts happily on her phone, completely unaware of a rapidly approaching Mischa. Mischa didn't exactly know what she was doing back here, but he wasn't going to waste this opportunity overthinking it.

As he got closer and closer to the girl, he found his heart rate starting to pick up, his hands subconsciously clenching at his sides. Anger..., a feeling he knew all too well started quickly spreading inside of him like a forest fire, all too eager to get to Tammy and do what needed to be done. The thoughts of Penny and Tammy texting and talking, those moments of flirtation between them, and the simple idea of them potentially getting together made Mischa unbelievably pissed, more so than he's ever been.

He doesn't care how many times he needs to say it, how many times he needs to make it crystal clear, Penny Lamb will forever be his.

No one is gonna get in the way of that.

...

Mischa can't quite recall what happens next..., only faint images of anger, rough handling, and sobs could be retrieved as he must have blacked out from the anger. All he knows and cares about now is that Penny is safe from Tammy's bothersome attention.

The past few weeks have been awfully strange for Penny...

Mischa, possibly one of her best friends in the entire world, had been acting a bit distant. It wasn't like he quit speaking to her or anything, but he was just more busy than he usually was. That was just one thing though, it wasn't enough to have her as confused as she was now.

But then out of nowhere, he started being extremely active in her life again right as Tammy decided to block her with no rhyme or reason. She was just so distraught as she rambled to Mischa about Tammy's sudden disappearance from her life that she never once thought to question it all. She can't believe a girl she really thought was the one just up and left, just like that... Was she really that bad? Was her ways of love that despicable??

Penny couldn't stop those feelings of sadness from consuming her for days...

And as sad as Mischa was to see Penny not being happy, he knew she just needed some time to see that Tammy was just a burden on her, that she never loved her the way he does.

Ricky Potts:

...

Well that was unexpected.

If you would have told Ricky that Tammy Edwards, a highly religious girl with more friends than she knew what to do with, would be friends with Penny Lamb, a girl with a known toubled past and is basically the school's punching bag, he would have looked at you like you were crazy.

And if that wasn't shocking enough, finding out that Penny liked Tammy..., that sent Ricky through a bit of a spiral.

Ricky would be lying if he said he ever cared for Tammy, really, to him, anyone who wasn't Penny, Ezra, or his parents, were all just kind of side characters he had no interest in interacting with.

Can you blame him though? When you have been shown that time and time again, everyone around you views you as a background character who has no thoughts or feelings beside than what they were "made to do," you to would get a little cynical about others as well.

Moving on, Ricky has a bad habit of looking through Penny's stuff from time to time, he knows how bad it looks, but he hates the idea that she's keeping stuff from him! So..., while Penny went off for a moment, leaving him alone in her and Ezra's shared room, he admittedly got a little curious. He checked all the usual spots he knows she hides things in, having done this plenty of times before, before coming across her diary.

Now, he knew of Penny's diary from snooping previously and because Penny herself has mentioned it before. Apparently is was just some activity Dr. Prattle was making her do to let out her "intense emotions."

Normally, he would've just skipped over it, he has some boundaries after all and reading her diary was stepping over them. But today..., today something just told him that he needed to read it. It was a gut feeling far too strong to ignore. So, he did...

Skipping over to her lastest entry, one having been done from the day prior as seen from the date written in the top left corner, he saw it.

Written in the messy handwriting he adores was, "Okay so, I think i'm finally ready to admit to myself that I really like Tammy... and not just as a friend either. (I guess those barbies were right, huh?)" Clear as day, right in front of his eyes, Penny admitted that she liked Tammy.

She didn't love him.

Ricky's hands were particularly shaky as he placed the diary back to were he found it, expression unreadable as the storm in his head grew to an incomprehensible size. He had always told himself that if he waited, if he was patient, kind, and if he was everything Penny would ever need, than she would realize he was the one for her.

He's tried so hard. Everything he does and think about is for Penny, all he wants is for her to see that he loves her more than anyone, including herself, can even imagine. He just wishes that for one moment, one signular second, that piece inside of head will click and everything will be the way it should be.

But that wasn't going to happen. That moment will never occur if Penny continues having eyes for Tammy.

...

Maybe it was the anxiety overflowing in his head or the thought that Penny would never love him that made a thought Ricky woulde have never dared to think of pop into his mind. An idea that he normally would never dream of doing, Penny is her own person after all, but in such a dire situation....

He knew it would have to be done. What better way to show Penny that he loves her like no other than to have her have no one else in her life. (With exceptions of course.)

Isolating Penny, to no one's surprise, was a lot easier than it probably would've been for most people.

All Ricky had to do was, 1. Take up as much of her time as possible (which he was already doing.) 2. Put in a few bad words here and there about Tammy or whoever else tried getting close to Penny. And lastly, 3. Make her think this was all her own desision!

Who knew Ricky could be so good at gaslighting?

Whenever he made up his mind about this plan, he started on it almost immediately, he couldn't waste anytime with it because who knows when Penny was planning to confess?

And yet, as much progress this plan was showing and even when Ricky was almost positive Tammy was out of Penny's life..., he couldn't help but still feel so paranoid.

What if Tammy came back? What if Penny still liked her and ready to just leave him behind? What if she knew what he was doing and found him utterly despicable?? What if-

Those pesky thoughts just kept snowballing and snowballing. He really would have never considered himself a nervous person, but Penny is just too amazing to let go...

Penny on the other hand, despite what Ricky's paranoia might have been screaming at him, was none the wiser to the isolation Ricky was imprinting on her. She was never really a social butterfly anyway, so she hardly noticed how these days Ricky and Ezra were the only people she talked to.

This was just her desision right? She just needs them in her life, others wouldn't get her anyway. Penny was perfectly content with being alone, as long as it meant being alone with the two most important people in her life.

Did she miss Tammy? ...Yeah, she did miss her a lot.

...

This was her desision and she's sticking to it.

(Sorry that this one is kind of bad- Writer's block is hitting me hard.)

Constance Blackwood:

"Have you seen the way that Penny looks at her?" "I just know she has the biggest lesbian crush on Tammy! Poor Tammy." Giggling and laughing soon ensue, and those words Constance would normally never pay a second glance to suddenly seem awfully interesting.

Constance was nice. That was the only word people could describe her with in St. Cassian. No matter what other skills or personality she's shown to make them think any differently, it always reverts back to her just being nice. And as much as she hates it, which, believe her, she does, she can't help but admit that it was useful in these situations.

You would be surprised by the dirt she's heard from people either too careless to notice she was there or naively believing she was too kind to do anything with it. While it's true she usually never thinks twice about this stuff, she isn't shallow after all, this time it was different. This time it was about Penny.

And it wasn't exactly something she was thrilled to hear.

In fact..., the mere idea of Penny having a slight interest in Tammy was enough to make Constance have a bit of a freak-out... Quietly, of course!

"Penny likes Tammy? But what about me??" Constance mumbled to herself as she left the cafeteria all shaken up, her thoughts scrambled as all she wanted to do in the moment was find Penny and figure out the truth. Surely she just heard it wrong right? She's been there for Penny way more than Tammy has..., and Penny would have been so understanding and open with her if she didn't like her somewhat, right? ...Right?

Constance found Penny fairly quickly since she pretty much knew the girl's schedule to a T. As soon as her brown braids came into view, Constance took a breath and tried to walk up to her as calmly as she could, it would be rude to just ask something like that so suddenly.

Constance had finally made it up there and they talked for a few minutes, luckily Constance's anxieties always seemed to melt away when she was around Penny. But she knew the bell was going to ring soon and she would have Penny to herself forever... (Even if she should-) So, with what little courage she could salvage, she manages to speak up, "Uhm Penny, do you by chance like... someone? ...Sorry-"

While the words filled the space between them, a silence came soon after as Penny, in a bit of shock and confusion, stared at Constance for what felt like an eternity... Honestly, Constance was ready to throw in the towel as soon as the silence occurred, but she somehow managed to not run out of the room at that moment and Penny finally spoke up. "...You mean to ask if I like Tammy, right? I guess I do, she's really nice and I like her smile... So, I guess that means I have a crush." Penny simply shrugged as she said that like she hadn't really thought about it and was only now realizing her feelings for the girl.

Constance, trying her absolute best not to break and start sobbing right then and there, replies with a small, "Oh..."

Look, it wasn't the fact that Constance hated Tammy that made this confirmation of Penny's crush so hard for her. Really, she's spoken to Tammy a few times and she never had any issue with her, it's just that Penny has a crush on her.

In these situations, Constance's first thought is to just be as self-deprecating as possible. Of course, she likes Tammy..., what does Constance have that Tammy doesn't? She's nice, pretty, smart, popular..., It's not exactly rocket science as to why Penny would find her attractive.

But see, Constance wasn't going to do that this time. Penny wasn't some old crush she would only really care about for a week before Constance would act like nothing happened. This was Penny Lamb, the love of her life and the girl who makes living seem even a little bit bearable. So, she wasn't going to sit back this time and watch Penny get stolen from her, no, she was actually going to do something about it.

And what better way than to do what she is always known for? She was going to be nice.

Only a day later after Penny admitted her feelings for Tammy to Constance, Constance had managed to grab some of Tammy's attention before school and get her into a semi-secluded area so they could talk. Constance honestly thought this would be a lot harder, considering Tammy's popularity and all, but despite it, Tammy made time for her. Constance could only guess this was from their friendly relationship in the past or her reputation..., either way, she was glad for it.

Like with Penny, she didn't want to scare the girl off by demanding things right away, so she decided to do some small talk. It was definitely a little awkward..., but hey, Tammy hadn't run away screaming yet so a win is a win.

Eventually, though, Tammy had the heart to finally ask, "So, is there a reason you called me out here Connie? It's not that I mind chatting, I just thought there might be something going on, you know?" Giving Constance the perfect segway into the left-field conversation she was kind of dreading having..., "Okay, so I'm just going to get it out of the way and say it but..., I like Penny, like, a lot."

Constance slowly starts to ramble on about her love for Penny and how she knows Penny likes Tammy, all to lead up to asking one simple favor of Tammy.

The favor being, to stay away from Penny.

And as much as Tammy wants to decline, to keep seeing Penny and continue exploring these feelings she had gotten for the girl..., how could she deny Constance? One of the few truly nice people at St. Cassian and especially when she's asking so nicely. Tammy can tell Constance really likes Penny and she knows she'll treat her well...

"Of course Connie, may the Lord bless you and your relationship."

...

Constance could hardly believe the words she was hearing as Tammy gave a quick goodbye, leaving her alone with her thoughts. Turns out being nice isn't all bad after all.

Now, Penny was of course very confused and a little heartbroken as she received Tammy's text. She has no clue why they can't see each other anymore..., or what "Don't worry, the Lord has made a perfect someone just for you," means.

Come on, she was just discovering what it means to love someone after being stuck on a farm with old people all her life...

Well, at least she has Constance.

A/N: I honestly have no clue if I got Tammy right- Or any of the others for that matter, writer's block is hitting me hard. :'(

This post did however make me want to write a Yandere Choir x Tammy Edwards post, which I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing, lol.

I saw your RTC content! So, can I ask the Yandere Choir (Everyone romantic, except Noel, Noel Platonic obv) with Penny Lamb? A post-cyclone au, where they all got revived and Jane was Penny again! Thanks, how your day was?

☁️Yandere Choir x Penny Lamb🌧️

I love Penny so much :)) My day has been pretty good though, thanks for asking!

⚠️WARNING: General yandere content!⚠️

Ocean O'Connell Rosenberg:

A light flashes bright in Ocean's vision, her body no longer holding onto her friends but instead to a metal bar in front of her. ...What was happening? Was- Was she actually alive? As her eyes open, the dark blue sky welcoming her back to Earth, Ocean stops herself letting out a panicked gasp.

Did she somehow resurrect herself and not Penny?! But, she can see Constance right beside her and she saw Penny walk into the light in that stupid warehouse... Where even was Penny??

She gets off the ride along with the others, all eagerly jumping off the ride as if it were some kind of disease, and her eyes immediately start sorting through the group to find Penny.

...

Ocean couldn't tell if it was nausea from the ride or what, but as soon as she caught sight of a slightly taller, green-eyed girl helping Ricky out of the cart, she felt an intense wave of butterflies zooms through her chest.

Girl is actually so whipped-

Not once through their years at St. Cassian did Ocean give this girl a glance after the first meeting, and she is seriously regretting that... She has no clue how Penny slipped through her memory or anyone else's for that matter.

Ocean quickly runs up to the girl and hugs her, her words going way too fast for Penny to understand.

Their relationship after the accident has been overall, super positive. Ocean tries to make up for lost time and talks to the girl way more frequently than before, noting down her likes and dislikes and whatever interesting quirks Ocean sees in her. As reserved as Penny is when making new relationships, she was really quick to warm up to Ocean considering... you know, Ocean sacrificing her one chance at life for her.

Speaking of which, Penny is always telling Ocean how grateful she is for that. She just feels like she can't say it enough, it's such a big sacrifice, one that she never could've imagined anyone making for her!

The only way she knows how to repay Ocean (other than saying thanks anytime she even glances in her direction) is to give her gifts and trinkets. She'll give her fun notebooks, fancy pens, stuffed animals, bracelets, and pretty much anything she thinks Ocean would like, even though Ocean is always saying that Penny doesn't have to.

Ocean isn't saying no to free stuff though.

A noticeable change to everyone in the choir is Ocean's behavior, the accident really made her reflect on herself and now that they have a chance to be alive again, she wasn't going to waste this opportunity to be a better person than she was before. She wants to be someone who deserves to be in the company of the amazing people she sees every day.

This doesn't mean she doesn't have bad days though... she is still learning.

On those kinds of days, Penny is pretty much the only one who can calm her down weirdly enough. She'll pull Ocean aside and let her breathe before they talk everything out, usually, it ends in Ocean going back and apologizing to everyone.

As much as Ocean doesn't want to admit it..., she's kind of jealous of Penny. She just thinks the girl is freaking pretty, smart, and literally everything she wants to be!

Well, she thinks she's jealous until after a particularly rough practice, where Ocean has to be calmed down by Penny, apologizing to the choir, etc, Penny goes up to Ocean and says that she's so proud of her.

Those words literally make Ocean want to ascend into heaven, oh my god.

Ocean didn't realize it, but from that moment on, she was head over heels for Penny. She would literally go after Penny's praise and chance she could and was practically begging for compliments, melting any time her wishes were granted.

Penny finds this adorable really and will not spare any compliment she can give the ginger, though she does have to restrain herself because Ocean will gloat about whatever Penny praised her for, for at least a week-

When Ocean finally figured out why her heart would beat so fast when Penny was in her general vicinity and why her cheeks would flare at the slightest touch, she freaked out a bit... She never could've seen herself as anything other than straight and now that it might be a possibility she's queer, she can't help but panic.

Lowkey tries to isolate herself from Penny, but cannot force herself to stay away for that long. it's literally impossible for her.

Penny is so oblivious to Ocean's feelings like she'll unintentionally get so close to her and be really affectionate. It makes Ocean want to scream and cry-

Ocean is not even subtle with her feelings either. She is literally telling everyone that they have a "special relationship" and that she's closer to Penny than anyone else... It really makes everyone so confused.

Girl might be a little delusional... actually, very delusional.

Anytime the pair go out, Ocean is convinced it's a date.

Penny also gets so confused about why people are avoiding her more often, unaware that Ocean's presence in her life pushes everyone else away as they don't want to anger her.

I mean, it doesn't affect her too much since she never was very popular- It just makes her a little uncomfortable getting looks while she walks past others at school.

Ocean is literally Penny's guard dog.

Like, she is defending Penny's honor to the fullest extent. Being the most successful girl in town comes with some liberties, you know?

Even if Ocean finds all of Penny's "fun facts" disturbing, she will listen to every single one.

I'm gonna be so honest when I say that Ocean had no idea that her feelings weren't normal when she started having a darker view of her and Penny's relationship. She's never been in a relationship before, nor has she ever been interested in this sort of thing, so she really has nothing to go off of...

She never found the idea of "nicely" telling people to stop speaking to Penny or telling Penny who she should and shouldn't be hanging out with weird. She knew what was best for her, Ocean didn't even want to begin to imagine all of the horrible things Penny would experience by speaking to the people she deemed "unsafe".

Sure, maybe spending her nights going through her stack of photos she totally didn't take of Penny was a little strange, but it wasn't like it was hurting anybody!

The same goes for keeping Penny after school hours to "tutor" her.

Yep, very normal.

...Penny would find it strange how she was the only one in the choir group who Ocean would make stay after school for tutoring and sometimes she had an eerie feeling bubble in her gut when Ocean would hold onto her wrist a little too tight, she's sure it's nothing to be worried about though. Ocean just had a special way of showing her friendship and Penny didn't want to squander that.

Plus, even if it was suffocating sometimes, she enjoyed actually being close to someone for a change.

Ocean would definitely force the teachers to give Penny better grades if her tutoring somehow didn't work out.

I can also see her trying way too hard to make up excuses of why Penny just has to come to her for any problem the girl may have.

Noel Gruber:

The first thing Noel can remember sensing in his afterlife was the distinct smell of carnival food, corndogs, cotton candy, funnel cake, and the whole 9-yards. It disgusted him honestly, why would the afterlife smell like the one thing that was literally associated with killing all of them? Would he seriously have to smell this forever??

He was quick to open his eyes, expecting to see whatever awaited him in the afterlife, but instead, he was met with a blue sky... In a fit of confusion, he looks down and sees it.

...

Oh my god, he's on the stupid roller coaster again!

Noel frantically looked around him, taking in the sights of the carnival, his friends, and himself, trying to see if this was some sick kind of purgatory. He could tell that wasn't the case though when Mischa looked in his direction with a bewildered expression. This was real.

The carts made it back to their starting point and everyone ran off, everyone equally confused and concerned. Noel himself stood back away from the rest of the choir for a moment, just trying to wrap his head around this whole situation. Was the afterlife they just experienced real? Was it some strange group hallucination? Did Penny ever make it back to the real world? He, and probably everyone else, had a ton of questions that he knew would never be answered.

So, taking a breath, he turned his attention off the metal floor they were all crowded on and took a look at everyone else. Counting off the people in his head, he could spot Ocean, Constance, Mischa, himself, Ricky, and finally someone he never had seen before.

She had dark, curly brown hair put into two French braids, tanned skin, freckles, and green eyes. 'That must be Penny,' he thought. The girl was by her cart, helping Ricky out with a nervous smile, his mouth swiftly exhaling a breath he didn't know he was holding in.

Even if Jane looked nothing like Penny and Penny didn't act quite as clueless as Jane, just by looking at Penny he could feel all his memories of Jane rushing back. Mainly the gut-wrenching sadness that came from her song of not knowing who she was...

Thinking back on it, before the whole accident happened, he had romanticized death and tragedy for so long that it was all he thought he wanted... That it had to be better than working at a Taco Bell in the worst city in all of Saskatchewan.

Now that he's here though, he is so unbelievably grateful to be alive.

Noel didn't initially go up to Penny, since everyone was crowding her and he didn't want her to feel overwhelmed. Although it isn't his responsibility to know everyone in Uranium (even though he's pretty much forced to anyway) he still feels bad for never even attempting to get to know the girl, especially since she was in his choir group and all. So, as they all walked off the metal platform, wanting to get as far away from this fair as soon as possible, Noel made a plan right then and there that he would at least try to get to know Penny Lamb.

And he has been known to be quite a stubborn individual.

He first enacted his plan a few days after the accident (can he really call it that anymore?), by now everyone should be settled and he wouldn't be giving the poor girl a heart attack or anything. After digging up some info from Ocean, he learned that they had the same lunch which is where he first came up to her. She sat alone in the far corner of the cafeteria, just scrolling on her phone while Noel gave a quick greeting before sitting across from her.

He was very aware of how awkward this was going to be at the start. Penny didn't look like the type to be extremely extroverted, so he knew he would be the one making most of the conversation for a while. He started slow, asking some things about her and prompting her to do the same, making the conversation flow a bit more smoothly for the rest of lunch.

It was funny because, during their chat, Noel started noticing how similar they were. They had a lot of the same ideals, they were both hopeless romantics, and they both had an appreciation for the arts, it was so nice to finally be able to talk to someone who got him.

He just had this feeling in his chest that told him to keep her close.

Noel likes to show Penny his poems and she shows him her doll collection, Noel can't help but shiver to see her favorite doll though... One ironically named Jane and the one that replaced her head during their short afterlife. He really doesn't think he'll ever get used to it.

Eventually, when they both become better friends, Penny gets the courage to bring up Monique, making Noel's face immediately flush at the mere mention of her... At that point, he totally forgot about him sharing her life and he never would've imagined it would come back to haunt him like this. Still, he indulges Penny and answers whatever questions pops up into her head, slowly finding himself less embarrassed and more confident as she intently listens.

Penny also tries really hard to help Noel be more confident in himself, she doesn't understand how someone as interesting as Noel can be so outcasted by their peers. She finds it so frustrating!

Truly, Noel just finds her to be the sweetest thing and she quickly reaches best friend status with him.

If you thought Ocean was overprotective, Noel might even be worse...

Speaking of Ocean, Noel is either actively trying to one-up her or keep Penny away from her, which is pretty confusing for Penny since she thought their relationship was getting better-

And it is, when they are apart from Penny they act normal, it's just that Noel is subconsciously afraid that Ocean will steal Penny away from him since to him she is everything anyone could want. He's aware it's a strange thought process, but Ocean is (platonically of course) pretty, the student council president, top of her class, and so much more, why wouldn't Penny be attracted to that?

He is literally the older brother Penny never had despite being the same age, he will protect her and look fabulous doing it.

And pretty much being her older brother, he will ban her from dating whether she likes it or not. Penny will also have to get all her hangouts pre-approved by him first, for safety reasons of course.

Noel basically controls her whole social life (minus anything to do with Ezra or her foster parents).

Penny lowkey finds it suffocating but she does not want to hurt Noel's feelings, not to mention if she did bring it up he would guilt trip her or something of the sort.

They both have very frequent sleepovers where Noel will force her to watch The Blue Angel every. single. time. In turn, Noel is forced to have a makeover by Penny. (She'd probably use those children's makeup palettes and stuff as well-)

As far as yandere behavior goes, Noel is also a victim of the keeping photos of Penny habit... His though are taken mostly with her consent and are all taken in a pretty artistic way.

His behavior really grows from his love of tragedy and love for all things taboo, loving someone, whether platonically or romantically, in the most obsessive way a person can is just right up his alley. Penny deserves to be loved and cherished for who she is and he isn't willing to have anyone other than him do that for her.

They get each other, she understands him on a level on one else can, and Noel can't let that go, he can't let her go. He needs her.

Penny feels similarly to Noel in this, albeit to a way toned-down degree, she feels seen and understood by Noel. She never wishes to hurt him or have others hurt him..., so she's willing to overlook the pointed glares he gives to random classmates who come up to her and the obsessive poems that sound like they were written for someone very similar to her.

No matter what insults are thrown his way, he literally can't care less when Penny's opinion is the only one that matters to him.

Mischa Bachinski:

Mischa Bachinski, the angriest boy in town, was feeling a little strange… His eyes were shut tight and his arms wrapped around some other choir members even tighter. Were they dead now…? He was almost afraid to check. Almost.

But before his eyes can view whatever sights lie in the afterlife, his ears are immediately inundated with screaming voices, voices he knows all too well. Instinctively, he opens his eyes with his heart pounding inside his chest, threatening to escape as he is granted the horror of seeing The Cyclone again.

This time though, instead of seeing Ocean fly out of her cart or watching the blood splatter everywhere as a head rushes past him, the cart was slowly coming to a stop at the metal platform they all started from.

Was this some kind of sick joke? What kind of torture is it to believe you are dead, only to be woken up to the reality that it was all some weird dream??

Those were the questions running through Mischa's head as he practically jumped out of the cart and dashed straight to the one face he sure as hell didn't recognize, the one he was sure was Jane Doe, or, more accurately, Penny Lamb. He had questions and she was the one who went into the light right? So she must have answers!

As soon as Penny could even process what was happening, helping Ricky out of the cart on autopilot, she was immediately bombarded with questions from the tall Ukranian. She really couldn't understand a word he said..., making him repeat his questions more slowly only for her to not actually know the answers to them. Great.

That was all well in good though, because there was only one person he wanted to hear from right now, his beloved Talia.

The group walked off the metal platform as the drunk carney hurriedly rushed them off and Mischa grabbed his cell phone out of his back pocket, blinking a few times in surprise at the sheer number of notifications he had... all from Talia.

Call after call and text after text, Mischa could only really gather that she was upset with him for not answering her when she needed him. Even though he quickly started texting back, explaining the reason for his absence (minus the whole afterlife part), the damage had been done.

For days after, Mischa and Talia would have constant fights, sometimes over nothing and sometimes over something actually serious, to Mischa though, all of their fights were serious. It was really starting to get him irritated too, his safe space was now one filled with tension and it was just getting exhausting, so for once in their relationship, Mischa took a break away from Talia.

And to everyone's, including Mischa's, surprise it actually yielded positive results for Mischa. He was by no means a star student, but not being preoccupied with texting Talia all day helped him focus on his grades and actually show up to choir rehearsal on time. Maybe it was the fact that Talia and him were fighting, but he more than ever felt the determination to actually try and prove himself, prove himself to her that he was still worthy of her heart.

He even had the silliest thought that maybe he was rushing this whole marriage thing...

...

Well, maybe it isn't entirely untrue.

Marriage for so long has felt like his only reason to live, that one day he'll get the privilege to meet and marry the love of his life and it will all end just like that. And in a way, he still feels like that, but getting closer to the choir made his perspective shift a bit.

Sure, he still hates Uranium, but now he has an actual reason to start living his life away from that hell hole of a basement. His reason being the choir.

It was actually during one of their rehearsals were Mischa decided to actually go up and try to talk to Penny. They hadn't talked after the accident aside from a few quick greetings here and there, and as he's been told by everyone else, he needs to get better at opening up to people.

Mischa coming up and just casually talking to Penny was not on her bucket list. Granted, she's been given way more attention in the past few weeks since the accident, but she still found it so surreal that Mischa Bachinski would want to talk to her.

And yet here he was, indulging in all her weird science facts with the most attractive accent she's ever had the privilege of hearing...

Mischa being Mischa, was really interesting in all of the super gritty facts, like how rabies has a 100% fatality rate or how sea scorpions were once the size of great white sharks, if something was disturbing with the fact, chances are he's gonna wanna hear it.

This starts his trend of going up to Penny before classes start and getting his daily creepy trivia fact, discussing it with her, and going down rabbit holes of discussions.

Eventually, though, all good things turn sour and Talia ends up breaking up with Mischa, blocking him on all platforms without so much as an explanation. And when I tell you Mischa was freaking out, I mean freaking out, their sudden breakup was enough to give Mischa a full-on panic attack in the boy's restroom during lunch...

He was inconsolable for weeks after, causing all his good habits to end up right back to where they started and for him to snap at anyone who tried to help him. He hated dealing with people's scrutiny and he was sure he'd do something he'd regret if he heard it now.

It was only after practice on a practically rainy day that this changed.

Mischa was sat at his bus bench, staring off into space as he tried his best not to reach for his phone or do anything that reminded him of her, of his Talia who was no longer his. Normally his brain would start to spiral, blaming the whole thing on him and his "selfish actions" but he didn't get to do that when he felt the bench shifting to support the weight of another person who had sat next to him. His head snapped up, trying to see the individual who actually tried sitting next to him, only to see Penny Lamb.

He should've suspected what she was going to ask next, her voice coming out unsure and shaky as she asked him what was wrong.

Truthfully, he was going to tell her to leave him alone like he did with everyone else, but that caring look in her green eyes made it hard to say anything negative toward the girl... Against his best judgment, he confided in Penny and let everything out. He was kind of glad he did too, he's sure if he kept the hurt he felt from Talia in any longer, he would've just exploded with agony.

Hearing Mischa explain how much he truly loved Talia and hearing how she just left him, like their relationship was nothing more than a leaf in the wind, Penny really couldn't help but feel awful for Mischa. The longer the boy went on, the deeper her frown became.

Even though she wasn't good with social cues, she knew she had to do something to cheer him up, they were friends now after all. So, with blurting the first thing that came to her mind out, she asked Mischa if he'd like to spend the night at her house for a sleepover.

"It's just to take your mind off things..." Penny soon added as Mischa cautiously eyed her.

And once again, despite all odds, he couldn't say no to her.

He was really glad he said yes though because that's the exact moment he fell in love with Penny and he fell hard.

As he and Penny were sprawled out on her living room floor, watching some movie she had on VHS tape, his brown eyes turned to look over at her and just see the slightest smile on her pink lips making his chest flutter... In that moment, It just hits him how at peace he felt, it was the first time he felt peace in Uranium, the first time he felt peace like this since he was still with his mom.

Not once did he ever feel like this with Talia, not when they would send overdramatized paragraphs declaring their love for each other, not when he told her all about his life story and the best she could do was change the topic out of discomfort, and sure as hell not when he tried to fix whatever he did to make her fight him all the time after the accident.

There was never a moment where his heart was this calm, where his mind wasn't filled to the brim with destructive thoughts, or when he could truly look at someone and say he felt at home.

How could he let one girl keep him from seeing this?

Mischa would definitely act like Penny's boyfriend even if they aren't dating, he's very touchy and affectionate making everyone think they are a couple.

Penny was also pretty surprised by this change in Mischa's behavior, but she quickly got over it, thinking it was normal since she helped him get over his ex and all.

When Penny finds Mischa's YouTube channel, she will listen to every song in one sitting even if she doesn't understand most of them. She wants to be a supportive friend! She also leaves a few comments with support and some feedback, leaving Mischa with a strong sense of deja vu but also giving him a huge ego boost.

Mischa has a really bad habit of getting into fights to defend Penny, like, he has sent multiple kids to the hospital for her before. Even when Penny asks him to stop and that the bullying isn't that bad, Mischa will just shut that down. He honestly can't believe she would think that of herself, that she wasn't worth a few broken fingers for. To Mischa, he would gladly hurt a thousand more people if it meant she would be safe and happy.

One of Mischa's favorite pastimes is to legitimately stalk Penny's social media, even though she doesn't have much posted, her foster parents are shy about showing her and her brother off to the world. He has every photo he can find of her saved in his photos.

Man is so possessive of her, he really just wants to hold her all day and have her praise him. He could die a happy man then.

Mischa is probably the one person Penny is least suspicious of when it comes to being possessive or just showing any signs of concerning behavior. Her thought process is that everyone copes with breakups differently, not to mention when it's someone you thought you were going to get married to, so she really believes this is all his way of coping and he will eventually ease off.

She is very wrong in that though.

He is very likely planning to kidnap Penny after graduation and take her with him to Ukraine..., send help.

Ricky Potts:

Cold metal was all Ricky Potts could feel in his hands, no longer holding onto his friends but holding onto what seemed to be a metal bar. His mouth opened to ask what was happening before his heart just dropped... He couldn't speak anymore.

He knew immediately then that they were back to real life.

As the cart flew down the last set of tracks, he looked beside him to see a girl clinging to his body, one he had never seen before but he still pulled her close so she wouldn't be scared. If his hunch was right, he knew who this was supposed to be.

He knew the girl had to be Penny Lamb, or Jane Doe as he had known her for their short time in the afterlife.

Once the ride came to a stop, Penny repaid his kindness by helping him out of the cart and giving him a wobbly smile, as if she wasn't too sure what was happening either. Ricky quickly grabbed a notepad from his pocket to ask if she remembered what happened to which she nodded yes, but she didn't know why everyone was back...

That wasn't important though, not when they were back alive and memories of their "relationship" rushed to the forefront of Ricky's brain. He calls a "relationship" in air quotes because he never actually dared to go up to her..., he doubted she knew sign language anyway and people were quick to get bored or weirded out by him writing or using his AAC device.

He didn't want to risk the humiliation by a girl he thought was extremely pretty.

But at this moment, he finds himself talking to her freely, his hands slightly shaking as he writes down responses and Penny painterly waiting. It really makes him wish he got to do this earlier..., though seeing her green eyes now really takes on a whole new meaning for him and he can't stop the smile protruding on his lips.

Penny's attention was quickly taken though as the others rushed up to her as they were reasonably freaked out, pushing Ricky to the side. As much as he wants to get upset, he understands their confusion and opts to talk to Noel instead, making plans to talk to Penny later.

Over the next few days, the whole choir became a lot closer and they even ended up making a group chat!

At first, it was to be for choir purposes as dictated by Ocean, but that didn't last long as Noel and Mischa would talk about anything other than choir and Ricky just couldn't help but spam memes. He would feel slightly bad, but they made Penny laugh so that's all that mattered.

Plus, he got to have Penny's number, so it's a win-win situation. And trust me when I say that they are very frequent texters, like, Mischa and Talia level texters.

Penny tries to learn more sign language even if Ricky insists she doesn't have to do that, but she insists harder that Ricky should be able to just talk and not have to worry about writing anything down or using his AAC device.

They have ASL study sessions at his house now and Penny absolutely adores his cats.

This is also where Penny met Ricky's parents for the first time!

Where Ricky was extremely grateful that they didn't sign normal ASL but their own version of it, meaning Penny could not understand all of the embarrassing things they were teasing him about.

It is not fun to sit beside your crush while your mom teases you about her thinking you'll be a basement dweller all your life.

Penny was incredibly confused the whole time...

Ricky's favorite thing is when Penny and him will just exchange weird facts, his mostly being about space and hers being about animals. He will also research animal facts, just to try and impress her.

Ricky likes talking to her in ASL so no one else knows what they are talking about, it feels a lot more intimate and like they are the only two people in the room.

Despite how shy and reserved Penny is, she will undoubtedly protect Ricky from bullies, no one bullies her best friend and gets away with it!

Ricky will give Penny her first exposure to video games, probably with a Sonic game or something, and he finds her struggling adorable and also slightly frustrating.

Penny also teaches the others ASL, which Ricky is grateful for.

For pretty much all of his life, Zolar was Ricky's safe space from everyone, a world where no one ignored him and where he could actually be destined for greater things. Although he no longer finds himself drifting to Zolar as much as he used to, his mind still wanders there from time to time as he continues going through his intergalactic adventures.

And though no one exactly forgot how much Zolar meant to him, everyone else in the choir rarely, if ever, brought it up again after the accident. Except for, of course, Penny Lamb.

Ricky and Penny share English together, and on some winter day, Ricky doodled his OCs in his notebook while waiting for Penny to arrive, just some lighthearted sketches as he daydreamed. Lost in his thoughts, he hadn't noticed Penny standing right behind him overlooking all his drawings with curious eyes. She was quick to poke him on the shoulder and ask about it, causing Ricky to sheepishly smile while explaining exactly who they were.

Eventually, he started to ramble as the girl asked more and more questions, but she didn't mind, she actually quite enjoyed watching him get so passionate about what he loved. The way his hands quickly signed, making some of his words unintelligible to her, or how his smile went from being sheepish to full of life and excitement, or even how he'd sometimes glance to the side when trying to remember specific details, Penny loved it all.

And god does Ricky adore her all the same. This moment was really where he learned how much she meant to him as she smiled while listening to his nonsensical ramblings, he wished everyone could be as nice as she was.

He doesn't need anyone but her though.

Ricky is always actively trying to contribute to her doll collection, which Penny finds sweet. All the dolls he gives her have their own special place in her bedroom.

Ricky likes her having something to remind her of him as well.

They spend pretty much every lunch together and they walk together between classes.

Did I mention that he has a ton of pet names for her? Because he does. He could call her the generic ones like, "darling, sweetheart, and love" at one moment and then call her something like, "honeybunches, babycakes, and pookie wookie" the next, he loves seeing her cringe.

By far his favorite though is "My Savannah"

Ricky also has a Zolar OC named Savannah who is totally not based off of Penny, what- She's the love interest for his OC.

He has a ton of drawings of their characters together, most of them in a romantic connotation which Ricky would never let Penny see...

Even if he doesn't like to think it, he likes that Penny is sheltered cause it means she'll rely on him for stuff and he can teach her a ton of things.

He will befriend Ezra, and no questions will be asked. They are like two peas in a pod.

This also means though, that Ezra knows about Ricky's crush on Penny and while he questioned the boy's choices at first, he eventually moves on to just teasing Ricky. He teases all the time and at every bad time imaginable.

Ricky knows he really shouldn't, but every time he's at her house, he can't stop himself from taking something of hers to keep. He mostly likes taking shirts and hoodies since they smell like her.

He's so aware of how weird the habit is, but his heart literally feels like it's breaking if he can't be near her for long periods of time... (The shirts and hoodies will have cat hair all over them btw)

He is also prone to spamming her messages, he gets very clingy.

Ricky will absolutely buy her anything her heart desires, like, he's not even wealthy but god forbid you take him and Penny to the mall. Penny will literally be begging for him not to buy her anything else by the end of, she also really can't hold anything else.

If anyone else tries to do this with Penny though, he will make sure that it miraculously goes "missing."

Not going to lie, he can get incredibly smug when the other choir members are fighting over her since he feels that they have the closest relationship by far.

>:3 <- Literally his face the entire time.

Even if Ricky thinks he's slick with his yandere tendencies, it has definitely reached Penny to some capacity. She knows something is up but she just can't tell what... After all, her missing shirts and hoodies have to be going somewhere and the hoodies that she spots underneath Ricky's bed suspiciously look like the ones she lost...

She really feels like she's being delusional. :((

Even if Ricky often gets lost in his daydreams, he is also an incredibly observant person, meaning her knows everyone in the choir's weaknesses and what makes them tick. You can already see how he would use that kind of information to his advantage.

Ricky dreams of Penny often, they are mostly happy dreams about what their future could look like, but some are the complete opposite. Like, the ones where he was chosen to come back to life during the accident, and no one but him came back. Including Penny with her beautiful green eyes.

Those dreams make him want to keep her by his side forever.

Constance Blackwood:

Constance Blackwood hated the taste of metal, there was just something so grotesque and bitter about it that just made her want to spit it out every time. There weren't a lot of things she hated in the world but that was one of them.

It made her want to puke as it filled her mouth, her eyes shooting open to see why it was filling in the first place. 'Oh, my teeth were biting too hard into my lips, weird...'

'...Why and I on a roller coaster.'

It took about 10 minutes, getting off the ride, and getting to the dirt paths of the fall fairgrounds for Constance to actually register what was happening around her. She was alive and well.

She needed to hear her parent's voices at this very instant.

Constance wasn't even worried about why they were back in the first place, she just hurriedly grabbed her phone, dialed her dad's number, and called him. It was so hard to act like nothing had just happened, that she didn't die and had a chance of never seeing him, her mom, or her brother again. Through baited breaths, a small part of her hesitant that it was all some trick and that she really was dead, she managed to ask for her parents to come to get her.

They were confused but also quick to agree, she's pretty sure she freaked them out more by saying "I love you" for the first time in forever. She had to though, she now realized what she could've lost.

The girl took a deep breath, turning back to the rest of the choir as they talked about what had happened. This time though, instead of seeing the rosy-cheeked doll face she was all so used to seeing, she sees a brown-haired girl in the center of everyone.

That was not Jane, not the clueless girl who would follow her around with a headless doll or the one who sang with pure agony over her forgotten identity. This was, as she felt her memory rush back to her, Penny Lamb, the girl Ocean wished to come back to life right before they all got sent back here.

Even if she knew it was such a silly thought, she still was a little anxious around Penny... She knows she and Jane are two different individuals, but it's still hard to look at her without seeing Jane's lifeless doll eyes.

Funnily enough though, Penny was quick to flock to Constance when she needed to ask questions or when she just wanted to talk to another girl about stuff. Like Jane, she tended to follow Constance around, but this time Constance's anxiousness soon eased up.

She actually found herself liking to have Penny around, as much as she cared and loved Ocean, she wasn't exactly the easiest to vent to or talk about normal teenage drama with.

They have girl talks often!

Constance's little brother loves Penny and Ezra thinks Constance is one of the better friends Penny has made. They all have little outings where they'll go to the aquarium or the park from time to time.

Penny still tells animal facts to Constance, but she tries to tone down the scare factor which Constance appreciates.

Penny calls Constance "Connie" and Constance calls Penny "Pen".

They have a very affectionate friendship, they act like the sweetest old married couple even before Constance gains feelings for Penny. (This probably helped push her in that direction though)

They go to each other when they need to rant about the other choir members, mainly Constance since she's known them for longer and has a lot to say now that she's trying to be more true to herself.

They have a mini book club with just the two of them so they can nerd out on their favorite books. :)

Constance likes to bake for Penny and have Penny try out new recipes. The only thing is that Penny would never insult Constance's baking, so Constance never gets any accurate feedback-

Penny is lowkey so jealous of Constance's purple hair, that she will beg Constance to dye her hair too! Constance only lets Penny do the stuff that won't ruin her hair and that is only temporary though.

Penny dyed it purple to match Constance.

Okay so, they both know it's incredibly childish, but they will have tea parties where Penny will bring some of her dolls and Constance makes the sweets and tea. They both end up having so much fun that they long forget the initial awkwardness of it.

Constance remembers the day she fell in love with Penny like it was yesterday... Penny had come over to have a study session with Constance, which is where they might actually study for 30 minutes and then spend the rest of the time hanging out, and while they walk into her home Constance excuses herself to the restroom for a moment. Upon coming back, she hears her brother's excited rambling all the way down the hall which she just knew was him bothering Penny about whatever he was hyper fixated on at the time. Her steps pick up to quickly round the corner and save Penny- Only to see her happily talking back with him, just as invested as he was in the conversation.

The scene really just made her heart melt... Seeing her best friend being so nice and accommodating to her younger brother, whom she cared for so much, really got her heart racing. She just knew she had to keep Penny around, she had to have her by her side for the rest of their lives, best friends side by side.

...

Only, best friend didn't sound quite right, in fact, the word made her heart sting like a heartbreak.

No, she knew she wanted to be more than that, she wanted to be her girlfriend, fiance, and everything in between.

When it comes to concealing her crush, unlike pretty much everyone in the choir, she is surprisingly slick with it. Like, until Constance directly confesses to her, Penny would have 0 clue Constance was in love with her.

Constance would treat her so well! She is the best when it comes to handling Penny's anxiety and she really loves helping Penny in her time of need. It makes her feel wanted and important.

Very much the mom friend who actually likes one of her friends but any flirty thing she does just comes off in a platonic kind of way

Constance is really trying here...

Constance is scared of dolls, so whenever she goes to Penny's house, Penny has to keep all her dolls in a closet.

Also because of that, they go to Constance's house way more than Penny's.

Constance uses the fact that they are good friends to be touchy.

Constance likes to write secret anonymous love letters and put them in Penny's locker for her to find, they are filled with some of the most cheesiest lines too. Constance really lets her heart bleed when it comes to those, she's okay with being cheesy if Penny will be cheesy with her.

She would totally send treats with the love letters too, but she's afraid it will give her away since Penny knows her baking all too well by now.

Constance's parents absolutely love Penny as well, like, they basically accepted her as their own daughter, much like Ocean. (They pretty much have adopted the whole choir at this rate-)

They know about Constance's crush too and really try to push Penny into realizing it, despite Constance's best wishes.

Picnic dates? Picnic dates.

They'll set it up at sunrise in the park so while they're eating they watch the sun go down and the stars slowly show themselves in the night sky. It will be dead silent too, as they are both just enjoying each other's company and watching the sky do its business.

They both like to share hoodies when it gets colder, mainly because Constance offered Penny her hoodie once and Penny forgot to give it back and instead just offered Constance one of hers.

She is silently bragging to Ricky that she managed to get Penny's hoodie without stealing it-

They call every night and end up talking on the phone for hours. Penny really likes it when it gets super late and they end up planning out their futures together, in a way, it makes her feel less anxious about what's to come.

She also thinks Constance's sleepy voice is adorable.

No lie, Constance has definitely written fanfiction about the two of them getting together- She never published it and the names are changed, but it is so obviously about them that it'd only take you a few lines of reading to realize it.

They would definitely make friendship bracelets together, the colors being the color of their eyes, so it's a mix of green and brown with the words "P+C=<3" made with beads that have letters and numbers on them. Constance cherishes this bracelet with her life and would actually have a full-on breakdown if she or someone else broke it.

Constance has a cat plushie she named Penny.

Constance has also fallen victim to stalking Penny's social media habit, but she only did it once and felt guilty afterward since it made her feel so icky.

It also didn't help that Penny has little to no photos of herself on any social media platform, so Constance really got nothing out of it other than feelings like a complete creep-

Penny and Constance have a shared music playlist together since Penny thinks it's interesting to see their different music tastes.

Uses her status as the "nicest girl in town" to get people to back away from Penny. It's not that anyone is threatened by Constance, it's just that if she so much as chooses to get them in trouble, the staff would be quick to suspend them.

She can really only handle so many romantic "rivals" at once, and the choir is literally her limit so she feels that she has to do that.

Constance would undoubtedly do anything Penny tells her to do, Penny could ask her to lick the ground and she would. Penny would rather die than do that though, which is one thing Constance likes about her so much, that she sees Constance as more than a people pleaser willing to do anything.

During their sleepovers, if Penny just so happened to fall asleep first, Constance would probably just watch Penny sleep for a while before turning in for the night. She just finds the way her chest slowly rises and falls and the way her hair is sprawled out against the pillow to be so beautiful...

She thinks Penny is ridiculously pretty.

Constance is so good at concealing these kinds of emotions that Penny genuinely would never have a clue that Constance feels this way about her. Plus, she would already have a hard time believing Constance loved her, if she was told how intensely those feelings actually were, she would just think she's being lied to.

Not that Constance would tell the truth on this kind of thing anyway.

Constance has really bad nightmares of Penny turning out to hate her, it's her worst fear, and every time she gets that same nightmare, she'll wake up with tears streaming down her face. She would probably also have a panic attack for a solid 30 minutes... It's really bad.

Penny will wake up in the morning with a ton of missed calls and messages from Constance telling her that she needs to hear her voice and it makes Penny feel so sorry that she didn't wake up in time.

There are so many times when she and Penny are hanging out and Constance just has to stop for a moment so her heart won't actually explode on her from beating so fast. Penny just brings out such an obsessive and great love within her that she literally makes her lose her breath.

This might be a concerning thought to have, but Constance is really grateful that they died on that roller coaster that day. It's what kickstarted their relationship after all and got her to see the amazing girl in front of her for what she's worth. She can't believe she spent so long blind to Penny, blind to how much she loves.

General/All together:

Penny frequently gets close to actually finding out why the choir acts the way they do but is always gaslit into thinking that she's just overthinking it.

Penny should be glad that this is after the accident, because before the accident, having them as yanderes would've been insufferable- For now, they are all at least somewhat tolerable.

Everyone in the group is aware of each other's feelings for Penny, which makes it really awkward that one of them flirts with her right in front of the others-

Ocean pretty much made everyone make a pact to not try to do anything too extreme with Penny while they are all still in school. Just so they have a lower chance of actually killing each other.

Group hangouts are so chaotic.

They are pretty much always at Constance's house, if they aren't it's because Ocean is forcing them to all go outside for a change.

They have a group chat that doesn't have Penny in it so they can talk about her. It's really there so they can make plans for if Penny finds out of them liking her or if there is some kind of emergency regarding her.

Penny is banned from going on any fair ride.

A/N: Guys, I seriously don't know why I made Mischa's so long- It makes the others look bad. :'/
