After far too long of a day Connor was packing up the gym, he’d just finished his last class and was eager to retire back to his studio apartment. Sure he’d probably order the same pizza from the same shop, watch the same run around movie The Departed.. but it worked for him. His body ached from his most recent fight and he was craving the normalcy that was granted to him in his Bronx home. His indulging thoughts were running ramped in head when he heard the chimes on the door open, a groan passing his lips. “Last class ended at 10.. we’re closed.” he called out, turning around to peak at the individual now stepping into his line of vision.

At last! A shining beacon of light in the never-ending darkness. Pushing the door of the gym open, a disheveled Audrey let out a breath of exaggerated relief. Her tiny umbrella had hardly been a match for the monsoon-like downpour that had ambushed Ambridge this evening, and she’d just begun to lose hope when the light through the storefront of the building proved her saving grace. Not that she received a particularly warm welcome. “Well, it’s a good thing I didn’t come here to work out then,” Audrey smiled casually, dropping her back to the floor and leisurely making her elbows comfortable on the counter. “Though if you don’t want people stopping by to drip on your counter, a tip would be to actually lock the door when you’re closed. I feel it often helps keep unwanted company out of areas they’re not supposed to be in.” A pause, before she tilted her head to the side, smile still on her lips. “A towel, please? I promise to dry clean it before giving it back.”

Elena was two seconds away from using her laptop to hit the face of the guy that was speaking to her. The world clearly thought she still had a shred of patience left after a busy week at work, a less than stellar situation with a client and a noisy neighbor; now she was dealing with a sexist parade of lame pick-up lines in the making —- as if she hadn’t heard him make a bet and call her a ‘sure thing’ just seconds before, to his buddies, standing not so far away. After ignoring the boy for far too long, Elena finally looked up at him in both frustration and anger. “You have exactly three seconds to get up and leave me the fuck alone before your dick meets my very hot coffee.” Her stare could melt steel and now all she had to do was impatiently wait for the boy to either smarten up or stay put.

“You’d better listen to her,” Audrey shot at the guy. “This girl will pour coffee on your dick and then somehow still win the lawsuit. She’s tricky like that.” It wasn’t a jab, not really; the relationship the two between wasn’t without its tensions for a number of reasons, but for Audrey, this was nothing but playful teasing. She’d already forced her company on Elena by occupying the other end of her table whether she wanted her to or not, it only followed suit that she had some fun while she was there. Truth be told, her usual booth was taken, and it was the only one large enough to accommodate the spread of her paperwork -- so rather than spend yet another lunch working, she’d decided to relax the best way she knew how.

the male had been sitting at a table at some place in the city. his laptop open and a bunch of papers under the device so they wouldn’t fly away. he had spent most of his day sending out emails or grading papers. his golden retriever was laying down next to him, calm and collected as he worked. a few more minutes passed by and the dog hurried up and ran toward something or someone. he didn’t know and he wasn’t paying attention. a small cuss left his lips as he quickly stood up to try to gather the leash before he was almost running into someone and he stopped as he finally caught the leash and looked up. “sorry, he really likes people.” he let out and huffed, tugging on his leash.

It was pure instinct that saw Audrey make a beeline for Max the second she saw him. Say what one liked about Alexander, but one could not talk any bit of trash about his dog -- a dog Audrey had come to grow very close to over the course of the years. Much too late the dog’s owner realized the dog was on the move, and by the time he caught his leash, Max was already lapping at Audrey’s hands, high-pitched praise falling from her lips. Looking up at Alexander, she couldn’t help the smugness in her grin. “We both know I’m not just people,” she said, by way of greeting. “And he loves me.”

hello, i’m hanna & this is audrey! (her surname’s pronounced “vox” btw. it’s pretentious like that.) i’m 25 & from sweden, so in the gmt+ zone thereabouts. haven’t really roleplayed in a long while now but i’ve had the itch to write so i thought why not! 

you can find audrey’s bio page here, but don’t despair, there’s a summary below the cut! she also has a connections page and an about page. 

( HILARY DUFF, CIS WOMAN, SHE/HER ) —— [ AUDREY VAUX ] is a [ THIRTY-ONE ] year old inhabitant of Ambridge and has taken the role of a [ NETWORK EXECUTIVE ]. I heard they are [ IN FAVOR OF THE FAMILY FEUD ] but they won’t tell anyone. Lets see what the city has in store for them. (hanna/25/gmt+2/she&her)

trigger warnings: death

father started the vaux/ambridge network (VAN) when he was younger and raised it into a success

it’s one of the most popular networks in town, providing a multitude of different forms of news and entertainment by now

most notably though they exploit the family feud for their own profit, being “neutral” so as to let the families fight over airtime and ads etc 

audrey idolized her father growing up in ambridge, and became his unofficial protege 

her brother didn’t really...like him as much as she did lol

their parents divorced when audrey was in college (studying communications in boston)

their mother moved away from ambridge, but the siblings stayed

in the beginning of 2019, audrey’s father passed away due to complications of a stroke, leaving the network to her

since they were close it hit her hard, but it became easier to live with as the months went by

audrey has no plans to change the network; it still operates by exploiting the feud, and she’s well aware of this (to the very vocal dismay of her brother)

she’s not evil or anything just kinda sneaky lol but she’s easy to befriend if you don’t have a problem with her!

that’s as short as i can put it! don’t hesitate to hmu for a connection, esp not with any major family members or other town natives!
