25, accountant. Too busy for fun, too fun for work. ( Liz Gillies, 25, non-binary, they/she ) Did anyone else just see ASHLYN LAURENS ? I hear for the FAUST family they can be a bit PESSIMISTIC & SNARKY. But I also heard they can be LOYAL & ATTENTIVE. If you dare I hear they frequent THE DEN in their spare time when they aren’t being an ACCOUNTANT. Tread carefully or else you might be next on their list !
"Marie, I know it’s been since my birthday but you need to understand, work has been driving me up the walls. I’ve been busy ever since, and I haven’t been able to get a single day off.” Ash spoke in a rapid French, every word blending together into an almost word soup. She paused, listening to the voice on the other line. “No, mama, I have not forgotten about you. I call you at least once a day and we talk. You know I--” She was cut off. A sour look crossed her face. “Don’t say those things to me, you know I love you more than the world itself. I just can’t take a vacation, they need me at the firm.” Her face started to soften just a little bit, and the ever faint traces of a smile tugged at the corners of her lips. “Yes, mama, I’ll come for my birthday this year. It’ll be crowded in Chicago anyways. And I’ll bring you a new keychain, I’m sorry the one I got you broke. I have to go now, mama. I’ll talk to you tonight.” She hung up the phone and looked around. She didn’t even know what part of the manor she’d wound up in. She’d just been walking around aimlessly, lost in her conversation. It took her a moment, but she found her bearings. The kitchen would be...ah yes, right around that corner. She opened the fridge and pulled out the brand new jar of olives, not having tried them since she was a kid. Ash tried to open the jar, but it wouldn’t budge. “Fucking shit damn.” She muttered, not even aware that there was another in the kitchen until she finally looked away from the one thing that truly ever motivated her: food. “Oh. Hey, can you help with this?” She held out the jar.
It hadn’t been twenty hours since arriving to America and already the Russian had found a place to order her something that reminded her a little bit of home: vodka. Demetria was already on her second glass when an annoyed look spread across her face. Keeping her gaze straight and her jaw tighten, the assassin muttered some words under her breath. “I swear to god if those idiotskiy lokhi don’t shut up.” Her grip began to slowly tighten on her glass. There were a small group of drunk men not far behind her being ever so loud and was beginning to give the woman a migraine.
Ash didn’t usually come to this bar, however, she was tired of all her usual spots. So, a change had to come. With a triple Belgian in one hand and her phone casually scrolling through her various feeds in the other, Ashlyn was bored. The beer was cheap, at least, but it didn’t make up for the drab environment and obnoxious company. The only person who seemed to be equally uncomfortable in the bar was some beautiful girl a couple stools down. The girl already looked angry, though, so Ash decided she’d better not strike up a conversation. She took another large drink of her beer, trying to finish it sooner rather than later when she heard the other woman speak up. Her eyes were finally torn away from her phone for good this time. “It’s Chicago, what do you expect?” Ash’s thick Chicago accent seemed so foreign compared to the way the other woman spoke just a moment ago.
Teri is in the back of there club doing some inventory so she can keep track of the stock making sure everything is in order, she was doing this for the whole day. “It looks like everything is on order so i’m gonna take a break and Now it’s time for me to have a drink.” She said to herself. @crimsonstarters
Ash had been waiting for all of...five? No, ten minutes for Terri to finish doing inventory or whatever it was she was supposed to be doing. Ash had already gotten herself a drink at the bar and just wanted to talk to her friend. “It’s about time,” Ash called as soon as she saw the blonde come from the back. “What’s good, bubs?”
(liz gillies, 25, non-binary, they/she ) Was that ASHLYN LAURENS ? I heard a rumor they work for the FAUST family, but who knows for sure ? They can be a bit PESSIMISTIC & SNARKY, but I also heard they can be LOYAL & ATTENTIVE. You’ll usually find them at THE DEN in their spare time, when they’re not being an ACCOUNTANT. You may want to keep an eye on that one !
Hi ok so I’m parker I’m 21 and I have 3 jobs so excuse the sporadic activity thats oftentimes reminiscent of someone who lives in Australia lmao. So just a little bit about my life so y’all can get a better picture of where my inspiration comes from mostly:
I work at a jazz club in Indianapolis which doesn’t seem that cool but as I’m writing this an amazing band called Kneebody is playing and their music is something you’d listen to while tripping acid. Real neat. I spend most of my nights at the jazz kitchen so a lot of the music I listen to is jazz, R&B, and rock n roll. I’ve decided with this version of ash im bringing some of that jazz cat life I’m experiencing on the daily basis to her.
I’ve been roleplaying since I was 11 years old, and ash is about 3 years old now.
Now that I’ve worked that smooth transition in were gonna talk about my trash goblin, Ashlyn Mackenzie Laurens (call her that and ur dead)
HISTORY:
The Laurens family is originally from New York City, but in the 60’s moved to Chicago after Ash’s grandparents got married. Her grandfather was a lawyer, and through chance alone he began working with the Faust’s. It brought the family from your average Chicago family to being wealthy. Ash’s father, Michael, followed his fathers footsteps and became a lawyer who also worked with the family.
After graduating law school, Michael met Mackenzie. They fell madly in love, but she had no idea of his ties to the Faust’s. They had a child together, Ashlyn, and together they raised her in a family or discipline and prestige. There were no barbie dolls or Polly pockets growing up, instead she had piano lessons and arithmetic.
Around the age of 12, though, things changed. Mackenzie found out about Michaels ties to the Faust’s and left in the night. She held no true love for her child which lead her to leave Ash. ((This is where I get tired of being serious so I’m halfassing it)
Ash was FUCKED UP after this yea?? So she started being a lil rebel bitch and was a sour apple u know how it is. But anyways after like a weeklong ghosting of his lil tween daughter in France. So here’s a lil something w jenni
Oliver used to babysit ash when she was a lil child so during this weeklong ghosting she stayed with the Faust’s and was big mad because 1. Oliver wasn’t there he was in the fucking MILITARY so she didn’t know anyone that well and 2. She didn’t wanna be there she wanted to go w her mom her dad was a shit bag always.
But yeah Michael came back with this BLONDE LADY named Marie who was French and barely spoke English but it’s cool ash knew some French and they both taught each other.
But yeah ash and Marie became tight as fuck until ash went to boarding school in Massachusetts. Because she was a problem child and her dad didn’t want her around. Yay ash lmao.
Her sophomore year, Marie left Michael because, u guessed it, he’s a piece of shit. Another sad day for ash, however, she kept in touch with Marie. She went to France on her breaks mostly to spend time with her.
She fell in love with a boy on her soccer team bc shit was coed there, fuckin advanced ass school u know. But she had her heart broken when she went back to Chicago for college and he went to become some pro soccer player who didn’t have time for her gorgeous ass self.
Lmao right also she got cut off when she came out of genderfluid and pansexual her senior year so her daddy hates her now boo hoo.
So she came to the university of Chicago on a dope scholarship and majored in accounting because she wanted to get away from the life she grew up in. While she was in school her dad got into a fatal car crash bc he was driving drunk and fucking DIED. she managed to get by because that’s what she’d been doing, and when it came time to be an adult on her own she decided she’d get away from the Faust’s. But guess what??? When she graduated she found it hard to find a job that actually took her seriously and paid well enough for her to live in Chicago so she joined back up with the Faust’s and became one of their accountants. So she’s been living it easy for the last 2 years just dicking around Chicago.
