I’m assuming that reply you gave in post as a questions are okay :D

I might have missed it but what job is she? Any doh/l on the side? Hobbies? I know she hates GCs but she is joining which one? What server did you put her if okay to ask. I assume as wol she got the Echo, how did she noticed that? Does she makes friends easily? Is she shy or not really just looks anxious. Her opinions about the Scions? Starter city and favorite place? Does she ever get to know Bard boys? Steph and team? Favorite food? Favorite flower?

Okay for now I’m done.

(My parenting team ocs look at her, say she is too young and prepare a bag with everything necessary for new adventurers plus a few treats and tasty nutritional food and parenting books for the 3 dads including the classic “What to do when your Teenager goes Primal killing?” Don’t worry book comes with pictures if any of them dislikes reading. I have one dad oc that is a disaster as dad because he learned too late he had a son with a Miqo’te Keeper and their culture is different, he has read the parenting books, he is working on it, his son is same age as Sanaii but Keeper-Duskwight Miqo’te looking, don’t introduce them, she looks nice, he causes problems on purpose and by accident)

SANAII MY BABY GIRL-

She is a SAM main, but she's taking ARC/BRD through ARR; both are canon for her - she learns SAM from R'enze (or at least, the very barest basics; he knows basically nothing, and everything else she learns, canonically, through the job quests) and ARC from Zephyr. She also learns the basics of using a greatsword from R'azit, and DRK becomes a tertiary class for her. She does take up WVR and BTN! I want to say she fishes, but whether she'll actually pick up FSH, I don't know.

She's an avid reader - she likes to pick up new books everywhere she goes, usually trading them for the books she picked up elsewhere (unless she gets particularly attached to one or two). She's learning embroidery in what little downtime she has (which is what leads to her picking up WVR), but isn't very good at it yet. She gets better as time goes on.

I haven't actually decided which GC she'll join. I lean toward the Adders, but that's more because she's a Gridania starter than because she has any particular attachment to them. (Because BRD is canon for her, I could totally see her jumping ship to another GC after the events of the SB BRD quests.)

She's on Maduin! Taking advantage of that Road to 80 for as long as it's available.

Part of the reason she has amnesia has to do with her awakening to the Echo, actually - she awakened to it during the destruction of her village during the Calamity. The combined traumas left her with only hazy memories of her young childhood, even her name. She remembers it started with a R... unhelpful, considering she's from a branch of the R tribe. But she's had Echo episodes ever since. Her fathers believe they're fainting spells, but as no healer has judged them to be a cause for concern, they've always tried not to raise a fuss about it.

She doesn't trust easily, which can make it difficult to make friends. She also doesn't really try to make many friends, since being an adventurer means being constantly on the move, never really staying in one place for long. Against her will, though, people start gravitating to her - and more people like her than she expected. Or wanted. She's not sure how she feels about this "Champion of Eorzea," "Warrior of Light" business.

She's not really shy - she just looks very anxious, which makes people think she's likely to be shy and timid.

She's lukewarm on the Scions at first - she joins them only reluctantly, with the stipulation that she's free to leave any time. Minfilia has no idea how old she is. No one really does. (Then again, it's unclear how much it would matter, considering... Alphinaud. But I digress.) She comes around on them, obviously - especially the twins; it's nice to be traveling with people her own age. She and Alisaie get along especially well, being action-oriented. I feel like Estinien doesn't quite see her as a younger sibling the way he sort of does the other two, though. It's hard to see her as a child when she's faced down Nidhogg twice, and slays primals on the regular.

Starter city: Gridania. Favorite place: Hard to say. She gets very partial to Ishgard and Radz-at-Han.

She does get to know the bard boys! And probably also the MCH team, because I am what I am. Probably also the DNC team. I'll write more about those individually soon. <3

Favorite food: She's kind of a picky eater, something her dads have struggled with. She does very much enjoy most kinds of pasta, though.

Favorite flower: Oh, roses. Red roses.

(Catch Zephyr studiously reading the book while the other two look at the pictures in rising horror; they did NOT agree to let their baby girl fight MONSTERS what IS THIS. I think the kids should meet. What's the worst that could happen.)

#lefox sanaii #thank you <3 <3

Hey bestie its me Iri long time no see. We hang out all the dang time but I just have been DYING to know the following: 9, 14, 25

Fruck you

hey bestieeeeeeeee . everyone this is my dear friend who owns the iri oc i drew yesterday and whom i am on the phone with right at this second and shes bullying me

9. How do monsters see your wizard?

So! iri and dev both often wear human disguises to get around the spiral, its like a form of moon magic. monsters dont see them/dev as anything out of the ordinary for the most part, just some pesky wizard getting in the way. however dev has adhd (just like me fr) and she and iri both forget to throw the disguises on more often than theyd like to admit. in those moments, monsters are surprised to see a wolf from grizzleheim challenging them to a battle

bonus : my friend asked how specifically jackall feels about dev because we are right now in the middle of writing a crack fic where our ocs go on a quest to save nick jonas and they have to get jackalls rabies potion in part to do so

dev (and iri) have fought jackall twice and he did not appreciate them meddling with his plans either time. they absolutely obliterated him in battle both times and there wasnt enough left of him to fill a matchbox so i would say he doesnt particularly like either of them much. here you go steph i hope this was an adequate answer for you

14. How would your wizard and Nolan Stormgate feel about eachother?

nolan... when i was a kid I didnt like his attitude so im going to say that dev doesnt like nolans attitude. nolan doesnt really care about dev since theyve only seen each other like 2x but they will give each other a side eye if they see each other in cyclops lane

25. What are your wizard’s family like? How do they influence your wizard?

Dev has a big family! she is one of gath duskwraith's oldest kids, specifically being part of his first set( / litter???) of children. he has like 10 sets of kids and around 80+ children in total. The man is building an empire. Dev is really only close with her siblings from her litter but she loves all her family. However, she is one of the only wolves in grizzleheim, much less in her family, to have pursued storm magic, with most of her family aligning themselves with fire or death magic. Because of this, Dev left to go to ravenwood to really learn storm magic! But she tries to visit home when she can

#sandshadow #ask #everyone say hi to my friend steph . we just saved nick jonas' soul together #devin griffinsmith

Batboys scenario: Secret Model Girfriend. 1/2

The following is a non profit fan based story Batman, Red hood, Nightwing etc. belongs to DC Comics please support the official release.

I gain no profit from this nor do I own anything other then OCs and whatever sprouts from my imagination. Thanks for reading!

Batboys Scenario 1: secret model girlfriend.

Boys are dating a nerdy, clumsy and very plain looking girl, not knowing she's a very gorgeous model they've been obsessing over and one day they're invited to a shoot to meet s/n [Stage name] and let's just say the boys say some pretty hurtful shit, needless to say they get the biggest shock of their life when the model sounds an awful lot like their girlfriend!

Dick Grayson: Kori got him backstage he was so giddy about meeting [S/n] he has a lot her posters on his old bedroom back at the manor and a few cleverly hidden magazines hidden back at his and Y/n apartment, His girlfriend has no idea he's here...His eyes wonder around the set ladies of every shape and various stated of dress eye him, some flirtatiously, other curiously and few could care less.

You meet a lot of attractive men in this industry so the more seasoned models have learned *not to flatter yourself, chances are he's just window shopping or fishing for attention.* Then she came into his view [s/n] she looked more stunning in person than on paper.

She wore a dark blue cover dress over a white bikini, her short/long glossy hair was flowing, her plump red lip were curled into a friendly smile that brighten the room her eyes were covered by sunglasses, Dick felt butterflies in his stomach as the [y/height] woman approached the he caught wisps of her perfume in the air...

that caused Dick to stall for moment. It was familiar he quickly pushed that aside and introduced himself. Y/n being the ever good actress she was used her s/n's [accent], They hit it off pretty well they talked about the show and her up coming tour and eventual somehow got on to relationships. "So.. Kori says you have a girlfriend, what's she like?"

the model asked as the raven haired snorted, not his cutesy 'OMG I thought you'd never ask!~' snicker this was a sarcastic snort. "Oh...yeah, she's nothing special... pretty boring really." Kori and S/n both gawked at as he continued. "It's not serious, I'm only with Y/n because of a dar-" he was suddenly cut off by a seething Kori "Richard! that is Y/n!" she snarled ready to pummel him.

Dick's stomach suddenly felt like it was full of sand a lumped formed throat as the familiar little hiccups his girlfriend would make when she was trying hard not breakdown crying filled the very quiet set. he swallowed hard as S/n took off her wig and sunglasses letting her natural hair fall over her face, as her teary e/c eyes looked up at him in betrayal,

before Dick could say anything she pulled the keys to their apartment off her key-ring and threw them at him before running off sobbing, Kori went after her while all the other models gave the flabbergasted man the evil-eye, now Dick really was living up to his name sake.

Jason Todd: Artemis was your bodyguard when she wasn't with the outlaws, Jason got curious where the amazon was getting her extra cash from and followed her. to say he was excited was an understatement, S/n was he dream girl,

he had her posters,magazines and a few of her interviews saved on his phone, he used to and still does have a few inappropriate dreams about her, So, when he saw the Amazon talking the the Model who was in a red bunny girl outfit; Jason was over the moon.

While Artemis was very against the idea of letting Jason meet S/n..."He's going to hurt you." she said in hush tone, But you brushed it off saying that you've known Jason since before he was the hood and knew he wouldn't do anything!

Sure, he's S/n fanboy, but he loves you...Or so you thought! It's seemed like a normal interaction he asked for S/n's autograph and talked about her her travels and shoots then...got bad, Fast!

One second Jason was talking about his time in Japan talked about the cherry blossom festival how the petals reminded him of pink snow, the model felt a little off by this...he never talked to Y/n about this maybe thi...no, she was being silly!

"Oh, I've always wanted to go during that time, but scheduling is a bitch." She suddenly Jason's hand on hers the model cocked a brow looked up at the raven haired man, He said he was in the country for an escort mission got to spend a few night in a traditional hotel in the mountains...it was pretty relaxing.

"And it just so happens they gave me a free trip for two the next time I was there, how about it?" he smirked as S/n pulled away from him "Artemis tells me you have a girlfriend why d-" Jason's smirk immediately dropped then S/n mentioned Y/n who was hoping Jason was just joke flirting with her alter-ego.

But was soon throw out the window along with your broken heart! "Oh..her..Yeah, she a real prude, just dead weight" Y/n felt her anger boil over as he continued talking shit about her.

Y/n didn't even realize she punched Jason in the face, till she heard a crunch, and felt pain erupt in her left hand that was now broken. When her vision cleared she saw Jason on the ground clutching his now broken nose looking up at her shocked. "What the fuck? You broke my nose!" he snarled as the model took off her wig and sunglasses and his eyes widened in horror and awe as his girlfriend glared down at him tearful and angry.

"Fuck your nose! and fuck you!" she spat before running off, Artemis looked between them both before helping Jason up as she glared the raven haired man in anger and disappointment. "I told her this was a bad Idea..." the amazon huffed as she gathered Y/n's things and went looking for her, all while Jason just stood there too stunned to move as his mind kept repeating...

*Y/n is S/n...Y/n is S/n,* Y/n his small mousy (ex) girlfriend who he's known and trusted since his Robin days, was the pin-up model glaciers would sprout a pair of legs for, and earn a degree in linguistics just the for the off chance that she'll talk them?!...and he just fucking ruined it!

Tim Drake: Stephanie who found out S/n's true identity by accident, was the one who convinced Y/n to tell Tim about her other life, he was getting suspicious about her business trips, and late night phone calls...However, every time she had the opportunity to say something she'd chicken out or something would come up for either Y/n or Tim leaving it for another day of cancelled plans or Tim giving her the silent treatment for standing him up.

Then she came out of her bathroom to find Tim going through her phone! "What are you doing?!" The h/c demanded the raven hared man lips formed a tight line. "Who's Grant?" he huffed ignoring her question. "Nobody, just a co-worker!" she hissed trying to snatch her phone back but Tim kept it out of her reach. "Really? then how come I've never met him?" his eyes narrowed suspiciously.

"He's been overseas the last few months, It's a lunch meeting we're discussing filming locations?" Y/n said wasn't a complete lie she did say she worked in a photography industry, And Grant was a fellow model who also doubled as location organizer for the firm, But Tim was still skeptical he could tell she wasn't being truthful.

"Really, Just a co-worker?"

" Is that a problem?"

"Yeah..actually you're my girlfriend, why hell is he calling you his sweetheart and baby?!"

"Sorry, I didn't realize my friends needed your permission to call me nicknames!"

Y/n snapped as Tim's jaw set indicating he was furious. "OH! So, now he's a friend, what the hell happen to just a Co-worker?!" The raven haired man demanded as the h/c flinched at his raised voice, This wasn't fair this wasn't fair at all! "I don't see that the big deal is, I don't give you shit for hanging out with Stephanie or Cassie?!" She huffed bringing his exes into the mix big mistake..."Well at least I can trust them!?" Tim seethed shoving passed her.

"What are you talking about?!" Y/n demanded she already knew where he was going with this. "I know you're cheating Y/n, So just save us both the god damn time and just tell me!" Tim snarled as Y/n looked affronted she knew it was coming, but it still stung that her Timmy would assume that she was sleeping around!

"Fine! You want the truth Tim? Well here it is, I'm S/n!" She said crossing her arms as Tim gave her a once over a sneered. "The model?...Right, If you're gonna play around at least make up a better lie then that..." He spat storming out of her apartment... leaving a sobbing Y/n in his wake.

Later while on patrol with Spoiler, Tim let her know that he and Y/n broke up when the blond demanded why? He told her how he went through Y/n's phone and found her texting Grant and how the H/c had the audacity to lie and tell him she was S/n the pin-up girl! "Tsk, can you believe her?" he snorted then noticed how nervous Steph suddenly got.

"Uh, Tim she wasn't lying..." the blond said meekly as Red robin looked at her incredulously. "Wh-What you mean?" he asked feeling clammy all of the sudden, Stephanie explained that Y/n pulled a Hannah Montana and really was S/n..Grant is gay and her set manager they really were just co-workers...

She was actually going tell him in the morning before she left for her meeting, But he had to be jealous,distrustful and nosy...then the reality slowly crashing down on him like bucket of cold water... He broke up with Y/n over nothing, he went back to her apartment intending to apologize, but it was locked down tight and Y/n was gone...

Adult! Damian Wayne: Y/n was bored she was stuck at home playing Skyrim and eating junk food, "Well I can't be having a worst time than Dami." she mumbled to herself, her boyfriend Damian Wayne was stuck at some conference in Bludhaven...the poor guy. After doing the thieves guild quest line, the h/c got bored and decided to watch some TV when she switch over she was met with a Vicky Vale live at a Wayne charity gala...

*Gala? Damian never mentioned a Gala.." Y/n was confused as she saw Dick,Tim even Jason on the screen with dates...Did Dami lie? She though for a moment. No, he's up-tight but Damian isn't a liar...The h/c stomach dropped when she saw her boyfriend on screen with some d-listed blonde wrapped around his arm.

Y/n's face contorted into anger as she shut the TV off, What the hell! why didn't he tell her about the gala?...She looked at her reflection from the floor length mirror, She was wearing her big glasses, no make up and a Transformers t-shirt...Was Damian embarrassed of her? the h/c felt tears welling in her eyes then shook her head and wiped them.

She'll show him! But first she needs a date! Y/n pick up her phone and called her friend Robbie Reyes (ghost Rider)."Ey, Robbie! It's N/n are you still in Gotham?" The Latino man confirmed that yes he was still in the city. "Good, there's this charity thing downtown and I need a date."

She smirked as the mechanic said he'll go but, he doesn't have anything to wear. "Oh,don't worry about that I got you covered." Y/n already called her stylist and the formal wear shop they got there the same Time Robbie did.

by the time they were done getting dress S/n and Robbie Reyes looked like a Hollywood couple. She in a dark purple gown with gold flowers decorating the front and dipped low in the back, and Robbie was in dark tux with a matching purple shirt and gold tie.

"Remember, I'm only doing because we're friends...And you promised an autographed poster to Gabe." the Latino chided causing the model smile that's Robbie always big teddy bear when it comes to his little brother! "Don't worry I haven't forgotten.." She eyed him int the tux and smirked Y/n was Robbie was fine.~ "Y'know you should clean up more often! you'd be a real chick magnet...you could use a girlfriend."

the man next to her snorted and rolled his eyes annoyed "You sound like my brother..." he sighed as they pulled into the Hotel parking lot a few men whistled in amazement at the black 69 Charger. the Valet took Robbie's keys eagerly, but not before the Latino gave him the 'don't hurt my car!' speech causing Y/n to roll her eyes...Men and their cars, She doesn't get it and never will, She looped her arms around his left arm as Vicky Vale zeroed in on them.

"Oh, speaking of late arrivals S/n has just arrived with a Bad boy!~ could love be in the air in Gotham?" The reporter questioned as S/n fans booed or cheered as as the 'couple' walked along the carpet. "Is it always this bright and loud?" Robbie whispered in the model's ear cringing as some girls squealed at the little interaction and the camera flashes went off around them.

"Yeah, but it get's pretty quiet once you get inside." She whispered back to the camera's it looked like they were flirting, as the blond reporter asked about their relationship, "Sorry, everyone but, Mr. Reyes is just dear friend of mine, he's got more important things going on then dating at the moment." The [fake/h/c] explained with a tight smile Robbie confirmed causing Vicky to pout as the two got inside.

Robbie was immediately blindsided by a man Y/n recognized as Jason Todd who started asking the mechanic about that sweet 69' outside! the two men started mingling and talking about cars.

while Y/n rolled her eyes and wandered the ballroom the model surveyed the room for Damian and found him and his little tart...Taking a deep breath Y/n made her way over to them, when she got close enough to hearing what they were saying.

her heart hurt as the man she loved told his fake entourage how plain and frigid she was not worth bragging about! Dick who knew about S/n looked very uncomfortable and disappointed in his little brother. then he noticed you and looked stunned to see you there, Damian must told them you were sick or something... feeling more determined Y/n stood up straighter and spoke.

"Really now, because an hour ago you were telling me how much you loved me..." She hissed in her normal voice Damian stiffened shoved his date away and whirled and looked around in a panic.

"Down here love." She said in her S/n accent his green eyes looked at her bemused as his date and 'Friends' all looked at Damian like he grew three heads. "Dude, your dating S/n??!" One of the men said befuddled remembering all the crap he was saying about his girl...they all pictured some librarian spinster type! Not one of Gotham's top desirable women.

"More like he was...oh, here take this I don't need it anymore." she huffed taking off the necklace he'd giving her for their anniversary and handed it to Damian, She got close enough for him to see some of her natural h/c peeking out from under her wig and the outline of her contact lenses. "I...But." Damian still in shock tried to figure out how to talk,

It was too late he dug his grave and he dug it deep. "It's been fun, Now if you'll excuse me I gotta find my date and go..." She said calmly and walked into the crowd disappearing in the sea people, Damian snapped out of his stupor and followed after Y/n just in time see her get in a black muscle car with an unknown male and drove off into the night....

OC-tober: Day 22

Steph Bases Some Of Her Characters On Double Acts: Basil Remington and Dustin Thatcher, Londinium

I didn’t always look to comedians for how to develop interplay between characters, but this is absolutely where it started and unquestionably the best example of it in anything I’ve written ever.

Basil and Dustin didn’t start out this way. In fact, they weren’t even friends at the beginning. Londinium was going to be a more serious project about Basil, a dull, personality-less aristocrat, as he met various people around the city and developed an appreciation for everything. The problem was that the chimney sweep he would occasionally run into asserted himself in the writing process and insisted on being funny, which evolved into the characters developing a working relationship that flat-out became a friendship within a few months of the project’s development. And then, somewhere in the middle of Dustin’s quest to break through Basil’s deadpan and see him show any amusement at anything, he discovered that Basil was actually mercilessly funny too.

I was reading the Wikipedia article on double acts at the beginning of January 2007, and by sheer chance I stumbled upon Peter Cook and Dudley Moore being mentioned on there. Their dynamic sounded weirdly close to what I was trying to write between Basil and Dustin, so I used a two-year-old website called YouTube to see what I could find, and came across a ten-minute bit known as the Art Gallery Sketch from a show they had done called Not Only...But Also. That was all I needed to see - there it was. I knew from that moment exactly what I had to do.

I say that the one sketch was all I needed to see, but in reality I became obsessed, consumed pretty much all Peter and Dudley’s material that was available, and found out about the BBC’s tape-wiping policy in the process, which may be part of the reason I’m an archivist now (I got really angry). Basil and Dustin changed as a result, too - Basil went from unintentionally funny to intentionally funny to sharpest satirical writer in the country, and Dustin’s musical talent transferred from singing to the piano and he shrunk about five to six inches (early drafts had him at about 5′7.5″). I had them write together, a high point of which was when they wrote a song about a man they both despised and nearly killed themselves with it because they were sort of drunk and thought it was the funniest thing they’d ever done. (It still holds up for them sober.)

I should note that Basil and Dustin don’t have the depressing breakup that Peter and Dudley had, though. I couldn’t do that part. That part still hurts me too much. But it’s clear that right here was the breakthrough moment in my writing process, the moment I realized I could turn to the comedians I love so much to see how different types of characters could interact with each other, and this changed everything for me.

I have many, many projects and many, many original characters, but it’s well-known that Basil and Dustin are my eternal favorites, and this moment is exactly why.

DETAILS.

Character’s Name: Haven Caldwell Desired FC: Madelaine Petsch Character’s Age: Twenty - Four Character’s Species: Immortal Witch Character’s Sexuality: Bisexual

BIOGRAPHY.

Power — what everyone wants and so few get. Those who are lucky are born with it, silver spoons dangling out of the corners of their mouths, blissfully unaware of the struggles plaguing the less fortunate. Those who are not quite as lucky choose to take it, tear it from the grasp of those who hardly deserve it, and claim what’s rightfully theirs. You see, power is the empty chamber in a game of Russian roulette, and only a few ever dare to have the balls to pull the trigger. You have to play the game to be rewarded. After all, Haven Caldwell was always destined for more than what the world gave her.

In hindsight, it might be hard for one to believe Haven had been a happy child, the apple of her parents’ eye. They doted on her as any parents would, spoiled her the way only an only child could be spoiled. The streets of New York were her own personal playground, a concrete jungle gym just for her. As the child of an original witch, magic had never been a secret, whispered about in the dark as though it was something to be feared. Rather, it had been embraced, uplifted. Haven would sit at the kitchen table and watch with glee as fire sparked from her mother’s fingertips, flames licking at the skin. She would clap her little hands together and exclaim that the fire was the same color as her hair; her mother would coo at the excitement, press a kiss to her daughter’s forehead, flames dissipating as quickly as they came. She always wanted to be just like her mother, imagining what it would feel like to have fire at her fingers, hungry for a power she just knew she had to possess. And her mother, her dear, darling mother… well, every mother wants a mini-me.

Of course, you don’t always get what you want. Holistic Witch. The result of splitting a bloodline one too many times; the result of a family not knowing how to take care of their own. The revelation had come when her mother could no longer hide it, when she stopped being able to explain it away with coos of “you’re just a late bloomer sweetheart,” when it became apparent to Haven herself that she and her mother were not one and the same. According to the story, her grandfather had fallen for a human, marrying for love and not for power ⁠— her mother, drunk on love and foolish… so very foolish, had made the same mistake. Her mother had been one of the lucky ones, the first result of the first split, still an Original. Still powerful, still lauded, still destined for greatness. Haven had not. Just as quickly as she yearned for the fire at her fingertips, she learned to resent the flames sparking from her mother’s. Holistic Witch. Destined to always be seen as less than, inferior. Her mother swore it didn’t change anything, that she could still be powerful, still be great, but Haven was far from stupid. This changed everything.

At sixteen, Haven’s relationship with her mother deteriorated. She grew far too resentful of the woman who had lied to her, kept her in the dark regarding the truth. She knew it killed her mother to watch her only daughter grow cold when they’d once been inseparable, but her mother kept her distance, knowing it was the least that she could do. Looking back on it, maybe Haven had felt a little guilty for pushing her mother away. But you know what they say about trust: it’s a mirror, and you can fix it when it’s broke, but you’ll always see a crack in the reflection. At seventeen, her mother bonded with a wolf familiar ⁠— he’d been nice, Haven supposed, though she didn’t have much of an opinion one way or another at first. He’d integrated into their world seamlessly, a long lost member of the family, a way to bridge the gap. It was a slow start, but his arrival had triggered something in Haven: she wasn’t quite ready to forgive her mother for the years of being left in the dark, but she was getting there. He’d offered them protection, security.

At eighteen, Haven discovered that the wolf was offering up dick in exchange for that protection. She was never meant to know; she wasn’t supposed to be home early that afternoon. She was supposed to be out with her friends, giggling her way down 5th Avenue, arms linked with a pretty girl who wore an even prettier smile. But she’d left her wallet at home, perched on the kitchen counter. It was only a quick detour to go back and grab it after school. She’d found them in the living room, her mother not having the decency to use her marriage bed, caught up in each other. One screaming match later and several pleas from her mother for her not to go, Haven was out the door, a fraction of her belongings in hand. Running away wasn’t the smartest or the most logical choice, but she couldn’t pretend everything was okay, that her mother hadn’t ruined everything over and over and over again.

She made the most of wandering on her own for a few years, relying on her mother’s naivety ⁠— the woman never cut her off, always hoping that Haven would see the error of her own ways and come crawling back. She made friends in both high and low places, listened to the whisperings of the magical world, biding her time and honing her craft. It had been a shock when the rumor first swirled, the murmurings of a witch who had achieved immortality pressed to the shell of her ear; the man who told her of the rumors knew of her desires and presented her with the golden ticket, sending her on her merry way.

Haven wanted power.

Thierry wanted a coven.

Maybe that was the beginning, and the end, of everything.

PERSONALITY.

Ruthless. Calculating. Cold. Detached. Angry. They always used to say that Haven was only out for Haven, willing to send anyone and everyone down the river just to get herself ahead⁠—gone is the happy little girl clapping gleefully in her mother’s kitchen. She has a flair for the dramatics, thrives on being the center of attention. More than anything, though, she despises the notion of being weak. She refuses to be seen as less than and demands the respect she knows she deserves. Her behavior teeters on the edge of sadistic, though not without reason. Wolves don’t deserve respect, so why should she treat them with such? Though perhaps more than a little fucked up, she takes pleasure in toying with the wolves for her own amusement, just to keep herself entertained. It’s a stretch, however, to say she lacks humanity⁠—she isn’t a monster by her own definition, though if that’s how others perceive her, that’s on them. However, those she holds a soft spot for are few and far between. You know what they say: there’s something dangerous about the boredom of girls with nothing left to lose and everything to gain.

POLITICS.

It’s safe to say that Haven’s loyalty lies with herself above all else. She’ll do whatever necessary to protect herself first, and worry about her secondary loyalties after. (Really, the only other loyalty she’d have is to Thierry and the Immortal Witches. She’s vicious regarding the wolves given her history, and her stance on Holistic witches isn’t much better. She regards herself as above Original Witches through her newfound identity as an Immortal Witch, thinking of herself as more powerful, but there’s still a unique and deep-seeded resentment towards them that stems from envy.) It’d be interesting to explore interpersonal relationships because she isn’t really a fan of anyone, save for the respect she holds for Thierry and the other Immortal Witches. Again, she teeters on the edge of sadistic in regards to the wolves, toying with them for her own amusement. That’s certainly a dynamic I want to explore and dig a little deeper into.

Though she considers herself to be a manipulator in her own right, I think it’d be interesting to explore how Haven can be manipulated through her quest to get ahead. Promise her more power than what she already has and she’ll take the bait, do someone’s bidding—so long as she feels she has control over the situation and is making the choice for herself. Additionally, she’s a bit of a hellraiser. It’d be interesting to see how her emergence impacts the dynamic of the manor as a whole. I’m not interested in a redemption arc; Haven is the product of her situation, absolutely, but that isn’t an excuse, and I don’t want to treat it as such.

All of them

pearl: if you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?

Right now? Japan. Just. You know. Because

sails: describe your perfect partner.

Someone with nice and positive energy, who is not super dependent on me but also values me a lot. Someone who has passions and hobbies! I’m usually attracted to how people animate themselves, rather than individual features? A violist musician, maybe. Someone who will listen to classical music with me, and share awesome non-classical jams with me! Someone who likes cats. Someone whose name starts with U.

lighthouse: how much makeup do you wear?

On average, none. For special events, or events that I am very anxious about, I might put on concealer/foundation. I kind of use the two interchangeably. And then maybe a Bit of eyeshadow and maybe a Bit of brown eyeliner, if I’m really feeling fancy.

shells: would you prefer to be a vampire or a werewolf?

A vampire? Seems easier to control. And also potentially less painful. And hotter. Also I wouldn’t get my period anymore because I’d be undead sign me up.

mermaid: most embarrassing moment?

Once upon a time my school orchestra was corralled into the most mortifying gig on a radio show recording session to ever happen. I don’t think we were even invited, our conductor just made us show up. Only only half the orchestra did and it was the worst. thing. to ever happen.

turquoise: weirdest dream you’ve ever had?

Oh god, I’ve had a lot of weird dreams. I feel like I’m currently blanking on the weirdest. Surely I’ve already told you some good ones?

waves: favourite season and why?

FALL because the weather is nice and the breeze is nice and the smell is nostalgic and the trees are beautiful and aaaa there’s nothing like an autumn breeze

breakers: would you ever consider getting married?

I mean. Yeah.

seafoam: describe your ideal summer vacation.

You, me, the squad, a beach. Ideally featuring me beating Hannah at something.

rain: if it were possible, what exotic animal would you keep as a pet?

I mean possible as in “safe” or “legal” or “practical”? Like. Snow leopards are gorgeous and big cats can be pretty catlike but I don’t think they’d be very happy in closed quarters.

sunlight: least favourite song?

Clarissa’s stupid bear song on the piano

marine: would you ever consider plastic surgery?

I don’t think I’d ever go through with it? Sometimes I’m just like “wow my skin sucks imagine getting fake skin that wouldn’t betray me like this”, but idk if that’s even possible. Other than that I’m… actually pretty happy with my facial features.

sea glass: what do you consider to be your best physical feature?

I’ve been told that I have an Adorable Nose. I’ve also been complimented on my eyebrows, and also sometimes my eyes, but uh. I think the most Compelling part of my physical appearance is just like. The way I emote. Idk. Anyone care to cast a vote?

storm: do you like piercings and tattoos? Why or why not?

As in… on myself? On other people? In the context of sexual attraction? I have my ears pierced, and other piercings can look really good on other people. So can tattoos! But I don’t really think I’m likely to get either.

boardwalk: who is your favourite fictional couple?

Caslyn/Haven

coral: if you had to describe your personality as a food, what would you be and why?

Um. I would be… a cream puff. Because I deflate easily.

nymph: old-fashioned or modern decor?

I like both! For a living space of my own, maybe modern.

seawater: scariest movie you’ve ever watched?

The opening sequence to the Uzuki Files

siren: in a fantasy setting, would you be a warrior, rogue or mage?

Why can’t I be a rogue warrior mage tho.

tropic: what is your least favourite thing about your appearance?

My skin! If it could just be clear, all the time, I would feel honestly so much better about myself.

aquamarine: describe your dream date.

Oh gee, I don’t know. Nice weather, and maybe some nice pastries, and maybe outdoors somewhere with some nice conversation? And maybe some handholding or cuddling or little cheek kisses.

brine: gold or silver?

Depends on the application! But my Inner Aesthetic dictates silver.

tidal: what is a colour that best describes your personality?

Uh. I mean I think that depends on the mood my personality is filtered through.

azure: what is something that you do that makes you happy?

You! Also, elves. Also, nice weather.

fog: describe where you think you’ll be in five years.

Uhh. Living in an apartment in Massachussetts with you and Emma while you two get graduate degrees in engineering and biology or somethings. I will be freelancing art and graphic design even though I will have been able to major in neither. Idk.

coastline: what is your favourite flower?

Azaleas!

shallows: what is your typical Starbucks order?

Tall iced mocha with whipped cream.

voyage: what are your favourite names?

We made a giant ass spreadsheet of our favorite names, I don’t know which to select for the purpose of this ask meme! Um. Nikolai, obviously. And……. I’ve always loved the name Lyla.

shipwreck: do you have an OC? If so, describe them.

mkay so we have:

Riava - a wreck, a mess, stammers a bunch, very timid and wishy washy in the face of death and torture, has no legs, a badass girlfriend who you hate. Possibly also in a relationship with the badass girlfriend’s twin brother Randy.

Ayra - a Badass Amazing CalmTM paladin knight lady with an overprotective streak and a lot of Really Cool Skillz. She works very hard and takes things very seriously, and doesn’t have time for boys. That aren’t her brother/adopted puppy Destian.

Caslyn - A lot more capable and level-headed than Riava, but also kind of a mess? Does magic and ships. Basically married to a lovey competent ship’s captain. Probably going to end up kicking Hannah’s crying rear-end.

Steph - a de-armadillo’d armadillo person who is good at quests and swords and Inner Conflict. Passed up an amazing and gr8 and not-evil sword Silverlight for the alternatively Super Evil And Powerful/Super Clueless And Convinced Tat My Mom Is Pregnant Darklight. What a wild ride

cerulean: do you believe in true love?

As in like, a predestined perfect love that happens automatically and sustains itself without effort? Nnnnah. All relationships take work and attention and trust. I believe in very complete, genuine love, but that doesn’t mean infallible or inevitable.

shoreline: if you could become fluent in another language, which would you pick and why?

Either french, because it sounds Good and Nice and kind of already know my way around the language a little, or Korean because I spend a lot of time listening to people speak Korean and the rhythm is really different from English and the idea of being able to understand it is really attractive.

Or yknow. Elf languages.

tsunami: describe a dream outfit of yours.

A spandex kilt over purple overalls, idk????? I don’t know how Fashion.

riptide: are you introverted or extroverted? Are you happy with this?

Introverted all the way. Which like. I wouldn’t say always makes me happy, because I suffer a lot, but I’m… kinda proud of it. Tis the way of my family.

hurricane: describe a strange habit of yours.

Sometimes I eat raisins and pretend that the raisin box is a pack of cigarettes, and I’m, uh… smoking? Them? Eating some drugs? Don’t ask me how that works, I’m too lame.
