! * , (ayo edebiri, 30, female, she/they) ! * , hey, did you see UZOCHI ADEYEMI unloading their boxes from the moving truck? i heard they are 30 YEARS OLD and work as a PODCASTER. they totally remind me of BIG FEELINGS by WILLOW, TANGLED HEADPHONE CORDS and STICKERS ALL OVER SKETCHBOOKS. theyāll probably hang out at 1924 BAKERY the most if you were looking for them.
basics
full name: uzochi adeyemi nicknames: chi or chi-chi. will most likely tell you to refer to her as chi anyways. gender: cis female pronouns: she/they sexuality: demisexual age: 30 years old date of birth: july 21st, 1994 zodiac: cancer place of birth: abuja, nigeria occupation: host of the podcast āunpluggedā, meant for conversations on topics that need to be had without a filter. also, side thing as a caterer.
appearance
faceclaim: ayo edebiri height: 5ā4 (āi better shut my 5ā4 mouth? actually iām 5ā5.ā) tattoos: small cross on her back. somedays, chi has an impulse to get a bunch of small ones on her arms, but never goes through with it. sheās kind of hesitating on it. piercings: lobes and orbital conch are pierced. clothing style:Ā big fan of streetwear. constantly in colorful clothing, shorts, messy converse, and chunky jewelryāsome days, sheās definitely more of a comfort over style kind of girl. ignore her when she comes out with a hoodie, basketball shorts, and slides with goofy kind of socks.
persona
pos. traits: resourceful, loyal, optimistic neg. traits: messy, (god donāt look at her desk.) stubborn, impulsive likes: spicy dishes, converse or just sneakers in general, trying out multiple styles in regards to her hair, and stickers dislikes: being told what to do (an overexcessive amount), resellers, that random moment where something soft turns crunchy, and smokers who canāt respect the space theyāre in
hobbies:
cooking/baking
street art, but considering she doesnāt know where to consider her canvas right now, sheās been just keeping her ideas in a sketchbook.
playing old arcade games. attempting to get a better look on emulating so she can just play them from her laptop rather than having to go on a journey to find a place to play pac-man or something.
habits
peeling on hangnails
randomly stretching or walking in circles rather than standing still
fiddling with rings or bracelets
staring at shoes, and when she does, she clicks them together.
backstory
tw death
born in abuja, nigeria, chi has been the one to call out injustices since babbles turned into actual words. of course, she wasnāt protesting while she was still in the middle of potty training, because back then her version of injustices were kids not getting enough for snack time or recessābut the idea is still there. around the 2000s, though, when nap time was scrapped for homework sheets, itās becoming a little more difficult to ignore the political conflict where she lives.
it hits full stretch when she enters high school. debate clubs, choosing her projects on certain incidentsāsheās always trying to decipher āwhy does this happen?ā āhow does this happen?ā, because sheĀ knows thereāll always be a place to improve, make her home feel more comfortable and safe. to but it bluntly, sheās slowly getting sick of uncomfortable dinner talks because another person or group ofĀ people died. so, rather than staying home for college, though, in order to have these conversations and works in different parts of the world with different people, because nigeria, to her, is going to feel like an echo chamber if she only talks to people at home about whatās going onāshe takes her acceptance from nyu and moves to new york. her parents move to nyc in order to support her in close distance during her junior year.
six years after graduating with a degree in media, culture, and communication, chiās father is found dead in a random location on an even more random day. there isnāt a full investigation, and itās closed before anything even fully happens. rather than biting her tongue, chi starts āunpluggedā, a podcast meant to critique how cases are treated, the actions of politiciansāitās called unplugged because she stops putting on the picture perfect persona on the mic, and just says whatās on her mind. it gets through enough episodesāher own little side hustle.
new york starts feeling a littleĀ too overwhelming for her own good though. sheās happy to have her mother here to help when her eyes feel all puffy, but rent starts getting too high, trains get too cramped, and every time sheās upset, the idea of her father uncomfortably lingers in her head. so, at the height of unpluggedās 50th episode, she decides to move again. she just needs the fresh breath of air before she (maybe) comes back to ny.
tidbits
does a catering business on the side. itās awkward though, because how do you cook something for people knowing just last night youāve given same said people a topic to debate about at the table while they eatĀ your food?Ā everyday she fights the urge to start going on air with an edited voice. she feels as if sheād fuck up and immediately got found out though. her love language is acts of service or giving gifts, so donāt be surprised if she gives you the catering leftovers, or makes dishes for you with the remaining ingredients.
has a corgi named ācocoā.Ā wayyy too chaotic for his own good, and has accidentally broken chiās entire recording table once. (tripped over a cord. you get the idea. chi screamed in her pillow for almost 10 minutes that night.)
constantly has bandaids on her knees. she likes biking, but the problem is that sheās constantly crashing into things, soāyou get the idea.
major tyler, the creator fan. talk to her about your favorite albums. thanks.
wants to get into rollerskating. would really be keen on rollerskating on random paths instead of doing walks.
