BASICS

❀ Aimee Lancaster

❀ Cisgender female

❀ 17, Senior (Birthday is September 12th)

❀ 4'11 || Light brown eyes || Lean build

❀ Homosexual

❀ Stage Manager

❀ "The Doe-Eyed Beauty" || The Theater Kid

& PERSONALITY

❀ she's very... soft. she's the kind of girl to cry in the middle of class purely out of stress.

❀ puts a lot of pressure on herself- she has to always do better than her best, always put 120% into everything she does.

❀ skittish & anxious. definitely not the kind of girl that comes to mind when you think stage manager, because not only does she hate yelling at people, she has like 0 time on her hands to even think about yelling at people.

❀ but boy, she can yell. during the peak of play/musical season, she's so stressed she simply can't care enough to feel bad. aimee will scream, aimee has screamed, and aimee will scream again.

❀ but she loves it! and she's damn good at being stage manager. she always has every prop organized, every costume in place, & always makes sure her actors are fed well.

❀ which is ironic, because she often forgets to take basic care of herself (minus personal hygiene)

❀ one time she went a full day without eating or drinking on pure accident

❀ most people in the school don't know/care for her, but the drama club loves (& fears her) as their drama mom

❀ doesn't sleep that much, often looks kinda dead.

& BACKGROUND

❀ both parents are alive, also has one older sister who was kicked out of the house a while ago.

❀ her parents are huge perfectionists, and though they don't realize it half the time, they expect way too much out of aimee. they threw a hissy fit when they found out she wasn't top of her class.

❀ her sister got kicked out because she wasn't perfect. she had tattoos, a girlfriend, stayed out late, and wasn't that smart. the breaking point was when she brought home her girlfriend unannounced- her room was cleaned out within the next 48 hours.

❀ it scared the hell out of aimee. she's still really close with her sister, one of the only secrets she's managed to hide from her parents.

❀ this all went down during sophomore year. since then, she's pushed herself like mad. also, since sophomore year she's fainted three times, twice in sophomore year, once senior year (current).

❀ during this hell time, she created a tumblr account, where she offered makeup tips and advice and whatnot. it got really popular- her blog is very well known. however, it is currently anonymous, with no plans to change that.

❀ her parents are pressuring her to peruse a nursing career- aimee wants to double major in theater & psychology. yikes.

❀ oh also she has a cat named daisy. not only is daisy a very friendly, cuddly baby by nature, she has a very close bond with aimee. sometimes aimee sneaks her into rehearsals during tech week to try and de-stress everyone.

& EXTRA

❀ she has a stutter. it usually only comes out when she's nervous, not so much when she's stressed.

❀ she has Generalized Anxiety Disorder & Social Anxiety Disorder, she's on antidepressants for the former & is in therapy for the latter.

❀ doesn't have natural freckles, but draws them on every morning

❀ LOVES tough girls^tm. she's very shy around every cute girl ever but bad girls^tm make her SWOON.

❀ if you've ever worn a leather jacket there's a 99 percent chance aimee is in love with you

❀ loves horror movies. they scare the hell out of her, but they're so exciting to her.

❀ voice claim = lana del rey || faceclaim = natalia dyer

❀ someone love her

❀ Aimee Lancaster

❀ Cisgender female

❀ 23 (Birthday is September 12th)

❀ 4'11 || Light brown eyes || Lean build

❀ Homosexual

❀ "The Doe-Eyed Beauty"

& PERSONALITY

❀ she's very... soft. she's the kind of girl to cry for no reason purely out of stress.

❀ puts a lot of pressure on herself- she has to always do better than her best, always put 120% into everything she does.

❀ skittish & anxious. definitely not the kind of girl that comes to mind when you think bartender, because not only does she hate attention, she gets really uncomfortable when men hit on her.

❀ but alas. after failing out of high school, she didn't really have a lot of options. she does her job well, making sure every glass and every type of whiskey is organized alphabetically. and usually, someone will notice her discomfort and help her out.

❀ the amount of care she puts into her job is ironic, because she often forgets to take basic care of herself (minus personal hygiene)

❀ one time she went a full day without eating or drinking on pure accident

❀ doesn't sleep that much, often looks kinda dead.

❀ she gives off really innocent vibes- and for the most part, she is- but it's really easy for her to become "corrupted" for lack of a better term

❀ easily manipulated and impressionable. if someone tells her to do something, she'll do it. especially if there's something in it for her.

❀ also, she used to have a much better moral compass, but she's been kinda on her own lately and really couldn't survive with it. so she's abandoned it.

❀ that being said, she does have a very guilty mind. it's getting a lot easier to do things in the name of survival, but it costs her a lot of sleep and mental energy.

& BACKGROUND

❀ both parents are alive, also has one older sister who was kicked out of the house a while ago.

❀ her parents are huge perfectionists, and though they don't realize it half the time, they expect way too much out of aimee. they threw a hissy fit when they found out she wasn't top of her class.

❀ her sister got kicked out because she wasn't perfect. she had tattoos, a girlfriend, stayed out late, and wasn't that smart. the breaking point was when she brought home her girlfriend unannounced- her room was cleaned out within the next 48 hours.

❀ it scared the hell out of aimee. she's still really close with her sister, one of the only secrets she's managed to hide from her parents.

❀ this all went down during sophomore year. since then, she pushed herself like mad. she ended up passing out five times between sophomore and senior year.

❀ it was all too much for aimee. it got so bad she was going three days at a time without sleeping, doing nothing but studying and homework. even though she knew everything in every textbook, she fell asleep in class too often & was too fatigued to ever do well on tests. so she flunked out. which made her parents kick her out.

❀ since then, she's lived with her sister and her girlfriend, who co-owned a bar at the time. the minute aimee was of-age to work as a bartender, her sister hired her and she's been there ever since.

❀ it's been tough, to say the least. the bar is a frequent crime spot, with stabbings and robberies galore. neither of the three women make nearly enough money, and it's driven aimee to do a lot of things she regrets.

❀ but oddly enough, the more petty theft she does, the more she's starting to love the thrill that comes with it.

❀ it's probably fine.

& EXTRA

❀ she has a stutter. it usually only comes out when she's nervous, not so much when she's stressed.

❀ she has Generalized Anxiety Disorder & Social Anxiety Disorder, though due to money problems and a lack of healthcare, both are going untreated.

❀ doesn't have natural freckles, but draws them on every morning

❀ LOVES tough girls^tm. she's very shy around every cute girl ever but bad girls^tm make her SWOON.

❀ if you've ever worn a leather jacket there's a 99 percent chance aimee is in love with you

❀ loves horror movies. they scare the hell out of her, but they're so exciting to her.

❀ needs love

BASICS

❀ felicity wessex-moore

❀ twenty-five (feburary 23rd)

❀ cisgender female

❀ lesbian

❀ "the drug-addict turned cop"

& BACKGROUND

❀ felicity was born to candice and rodger wessex-moore

❀ they lived a pretty good life. middle class, good homelife, no major issues. except for felicity's older sister georgie that is.

❀ georgie was a drug addict. it was nobody's fault; she was older than felicity by about three years, someone offered her just a bit of cocaine senior year, and she took it. she just wanted to try it obviously, but soon she found herself addicted.

❀ georgie didn't have the money to buy more, so when someone offered her a freebie if she brought her sister for some fun, georgie couldn't say no.

❀ felicity refused at first, but didn't want to disappoint her sister, who'd always been there for her and always helped her through the rough patches

❀ so she did it.

❀ it fucked her up. it fucked her whole family up. felicity started drinking and doing drugs to forget about it, georgie got kicked out and hasn't been heard from since, her dad didn't know who to blame and thus, put all the blame onto felicity. this, in turn, drove her to addiction more.

❀ by junior year she was exactly where her sister was when it all went down. desperate, in terrible shape, nearly flunking out of every class. she even started shoplifting to help support her habit. which, you know, went about as well as you'd expect it to.

❀ she got arrested. her dad wouldnt help at all, mom was too strained to do anything. it looked like her life was over.

❀ until she met police officer sandy muller. sandy saw the good in felicity, saw who she used to be and how she ended up like this, and offered to listen to her story. truly listen.

❀ sandy had connections. she pulled some strings and got felicity the lowest sentence possible, even managed to get her record wiped clean. as long as felicity promised to get help

❀ sandy acted as her guide from there on out. taking her to AA meetings, giving her advice, acting as her sponsor. eventually, sandy took over as felicity's honorary mother. sandy and her wife became felicity's unofficial parents, and were what inspired felicity to become a cop.

❀ she pulled together her grades senior year, and graduated with amazing grades. she went on to become a rookie cop by twenty-five, entering the force right as sandy retired.

& PERSONALITY | HABITS

❀ kinda quiet and reserved

❀ she doesn't open up to people quick, though there are some people she can tell are trustworthy right off the bat.

❀ she's grown to become a great judge of character over the years

❀ has big trust issues. it takes a lot to get her to really trust you

❀ doesn't sleep often. she gets just enough to get her by, then continues on with her day.

❀ acts very tough, but she's a big BIG softie. especially for cute girls and little kitties

❀ she can and will beat the shit out of anyone she needs to, but she's very gentle with the people she arrests provided they're not terrible people. she's actually quite nice and polite about it, taking punches and kicks without so much as a complaint. she knows people act their worst when they're going through their worst times.

❀ that being said, she often gives people too many chances. she gets burnt a lot, nearly costing her her job sometimes.

❀ she's trying her best. a bit of a perfectionist, she feels like she has to make up for all of her many, many mistakes, and often feels as if she's done too much harm to redeem.

❀ that's why she can never let a case go. she brings her work home with her every day and lets herself get overwhelmed by it.

THE OTHER ON THE CAKE & PERSONALITY

♥

❀ easygoing as fuck. is okay with doing anything with anyone at any time

❀ very chill, can roll with the punches and handle whatever life throws at her

❀ once liliana sets her mind on something, it's impossible to shift her focus onto anything else until she's satisfied. which isn't actually that big of a deal- she's a very efficient worker.

❀ doesn't have many real "friends" per se- a lot of people find her dedication to schoolwork annoying- but she's the kind of person any sensible person would trust.

❀ good head on her shoulders- is able to act well under pressure.

❀ probably hasn't gotten mad once in her life. but when she does, it's deadly. her anger is the kind of silent, palpable anger that make people feel guilty and a little terrified

❀ but again, she rarely gets mad. lily likes to see the good in people, and very rarely notices when people are giving her shit

❀ naive & optimistic - thinks everyone is on her side and that the world is full of nothing but sunshine and rainbows. this worldview shapes most of her decisions, especially when it comes to intense, scary situations. if there's a string of serial-murders, she'll assume it's all a big accident or something. corruption and deceit are words not in lily's vocabulary. hint- it's a defense mechanism.

❀ loves animals!! specifically birds. rumor has it she owns pigeons in one of those rooftop pigeon coops. partly true- her parents rescue pigeons & keep them in a pigeon coop in their backyard. lily has named them all after important educational people (Shakespeare characters, psychologists, chemists, etc.)

❀ she's even trained some of them! for example, her youngest pigeon (ophelia) is trained to fly around and perch on her finger (which explains the callouses all over her hands) when called, trained to carry messages, & (though not a trained action) likes to cuddle with her a lot.

❀ doesn't care about what she looks like & what people think of her (even if lily wasn't blind to the people who hated her, she still wouldn't care). obviously she showers frequently & practices above-average self-care, but as far as outfits or mannerisms go, she doesn't care.

❀ activist. she has a popular twitter account where she posts her political views (& sometimes flexes her amazingly high grades & share pictures of her pigeons). despite being very relaxed, she will punch the next man she hears trying to say they have a right to talk about women's bodies.

❀ very calm & collected in political debates. willing to look at both sides, very good at having polite discussion. she's just done with bullshit

❀ freaks out when she's not in complete control. lily does not lose her composure often, but every time she does it's because of her losing control for one reason or another.

❀ flinches easily, is extremely sensitive to loud noises (especially crashes or bangs).

PROTECTING US & HISTORY

♥ lily had a pretty average life with her moms, gracie and lucy. the two women met and fell in love over their shared passion for animals, specifically pigeons. however, things were rocky at best lily's moms, but they never got truly bad until she was fifteen, when lucy hit and knocked gracie out during a fit of rage. after gracie came to, lily expected her to dump lucy and file for divorce, but she didn't. she let the relationship continue until it got horribly dangerous, with lucy often making excuses to punish lily for no reason, and with her becoming more and more violent towards gracie. one night, lily came crying into gracie's arms after lucy beat her bad, and that was the breaking point for gracie, finally kicking lucy out. she went willingly. for a while, gracie was a wreck, and this is when lily went from average smart kid to valedictorian try hard, wanting to make life as easy as possible for her mother. she spent many nights doing nothing but studying, often times pushing herself to her limit (and often times fainting due to exhaustion and forgetting to eat). her mom has since remarried, and lily loves her stepmom dearly. lucy is the one person lily sees as "bad".

I GO TO BED WITH ALL MY LIGHTS ON & EXTRA

❀ her moms have been fostering & rescuing pigeons for as long as lily can remember (gracie started it, the woman she married kept the tradition alive) and is very good with most birds.

❀ even wild birds have been known to take a liking to her. it's kind of wild for the few people who do know lily intimately, as one minute lily is sitting outside rambling about something, and the next, she's fawning over the robin now resting on her head

❀ planning on majoring in animal science, wants to run a bird sanctuary one day

❀ oh also her graduation valedictorian speech is the cutest thing ever. and yes, she is planning on bringing in her two most well-trained pigeons to the ceremony (without school permission of course)

— claudia's mom left when her dad forced her out after learning the truth. claudia knows it's not claire's fault, but she can't help but feel a little pissed about it.

— claudia's dad worked real hard to turn the two sisters against each other, since he really hated his half-daughter. but it didn't work! claudia will protect her baby sister with her fucking life.

— their dad is gone pretty much all the time, so claudia has the run of the house. and boy. does she use it.

— also she's super popular. like, wicked popular

— but claudia's not a bitch! she's just a little bit of a wildcard, but not a bitch. she's actually a pretty nice person!

— claudia tries pretty hard in school, but still does really poorly. she cannot study in her weird rich kid environment, and nearly all of her friends are horrible influences
