EDEN SUI. 28. GENDER FLUID. THEY/THEM is here! Theyâve lived in Cascade for 10 YEARS and currently reside in OLD CASCADE (CHINATOWN). EDEN is a STYLIST at LĂO and frequently hears that they look a lot like BRIANNE TJU. Funny, huh? If ever caught by Letterboxd, theyâd say THE DOOM GENERATION is in their Top 4 and the theme song to their lifeâs soundtrack would be FALLEN ALIEN by FKA TWIGS.

aesthetics. night drives without any destination, impulse piercings, fingers stained with dye, quitting before you can lose, forgotten takeout containers, grinning with all of your teeth bared, the musk of cologne & stale cigarettes, emojis in reply to paragraphs, a cut from cracked porcelain, standing alone in the kitchen at three in the morning, leather against skin, the buzz of cranked bass rattling your bones, planning ahead to avoid the present.
potential trigger warnings: none.
somewhere there is a house and that house is painted a spectacular robin's egg blue. it fades into the sky on clear days and the grass is always perfectly trimmed, the windows kept open for a breeze to carry the laughter that lives inside. this house is alive because the family inside of it is not just alive, but made up of love. love between a mother and a father and three children who will grow up and have their own grinning children and a house full of warmth and love.
maybe this house is real. maybe this house exists. but it wouldn't be for eden to say, because to them, childhood is not yours. it does not belong to you, it isn't your story to tell because your parents have ownership of those years and therefore recounting it is pointless. life begins at eighteen, didn't you know?
so, it doesn't matter if eden was a middle child. it doesn't matter if eden felt overlooked and unwanted while ushered from cello practice to soccer to piano lessons with nai nai. they didn't runaway at twelve and then fifteen if they can't recall it. they can't mourn what they didn't lose. all the times eden told a lie doesn't count if it was said under their parents' roof. that robin's egg blue house doesn't really exist, anyway, remember?
but eden's (adult) life did start with a lie coincidentally enough. the university of cascade shone like a beacon to them, a few doctored emails and letters making it easy enough for eden to slip away, seemingly 'taken care of' with college plans a mere eight hours north from san francisco.
ucas was the excuse, but a girl was the reason. eden's rash upheaval was all in the name of love... which led to inevitable heartbreak, of course, because the first u-hauling never sticks. their digital romance didn't quite translate to real life, the transition from lovers to mere roommates to distant friends painful, but eden continued to come into their own, finding eventual joy in this solo independence.
from couch surfing to renting, eden scored a rent-controlled apartment in chinatown when they were at their lowest of low and plans on never ever ever moving again! never mind that their bedroom is also the living room and it's a basement unit -- if those four walls supported them through their era of reselling thrift finds and taskrabbit ventures, then the least they can do is stick around <3
eden was quite literally a jack of all trades and master of none for a long stretch there, taking any old odd job around town and even toying with the idea of getting a tattoo apprenticeship for a while. instead, eden scored a groupon for a cosmetology course and decided to give it a shot. specializing in hair coloring, they've since worked at léo for a solid 5 years now.
gender-affirming hair transformations is their schtick on insta and tiktok. eden's still as online as ever with a fairly decent following (@/gardenof being their handle everywhere)
the charade of being a college graduate lives on, at least where family is concerned. amongst friends eden has a reputation for being brutally honest yet paradoxically private -- quite judgement for thee and not for me. not many people know eden has brothers and even fewer have met them during their rare (notably parent-free) visits to cascade. an invite into eden's innermost circle is a big deal, especially contrasted with their social butterfly lifestyle.
with a continued passion for music, eden picked up djing when first entering the queer scene and has never quite kicked the habit. they do small and often free gigs around town. catch them at communion partying it up with the big dogs!
inspired by all things gregg araki, their personal style is very y2k mall goth. lots of piercings & tattoos (sooo many cybersigilism tats it's embarrazzzzing) to keep the gender monkey off their back, and eden obviously loves to change up their hair. it's currently a spiky cropped pixie cut, very angelina in hackers.
tbh eden would/has/does respond to all pronouns, but tends to default to they/them for simplicity sake
has a pet red-eared slider named gus fring <3
you can bet ur ass they've done a jesse & jane couples costume for halloween too lmfao guess who ededn went as!
potential connections:
dash chem & spontaneous threads, my love <3
neighbors. gimme gimme that chinatown crew!! eden's been in their musty lil apt for roughly 8 years, so that's plenty of time for them to have a rapport with others in the building - both good and bad!
the og u-hauler. the girl that brought eden to cascade đ jk things don't have to be sad between them. i do really love the idea of them kind of growing together?? or rather growing apart and now reconnecting, totally new & different and exploring parts of each other they never new could exist. lots of potential for ups & downs
regular clients. eden is suuuuuch a nasty gossip omg i know they're spilling the tea during hours-long bleaching sessions
san fran clan. maaaaaybe a stretch, but if anyone else happens to be from san francisco, we might be able to cook up something juicy w/ them being past friends or family friends - open to extended relatives too!
exes / fwbs / past hook-ups / etc. obligatory catchall romance and/or fuck buddy space! the messier the betterrrr
polar opposite. someone that eden can have this energy with đ€
