FULL BIOGRAPHY & OTHER INFORMATION

[giacalloway]

Gia knew that she were known to be a lot more promiscuous than her older sister, and even though she should've wanted to be more like her sister, Gia couldn't complain about the way she approached life, or the people she shared a bed with. She listened as Frankie admitted to liking Micah and that as far as she was aware he liked her also. "Well that's adorable." she smiled, clapping her hands together. "You deserve it, Frank." she smiled, using the nickname for her sister that she was sure Frankie hated, but the one Gia had always used none the less. "Don't rush it if you don't want to but if he gives you the green light, jump his bones. Lock him down." she nodded. "Cause I can tell he makes you happy." @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

Frankie shook her head at her sister, but not because she disagreed with her. "I don't know about locking him down per say," she let out a huff of laughter, "but yeah, I think we could have some fun." With their age difference, she doubted she would be marrying him but then again, she didn't think they'd make it this big as a band. Not that she didn't believe in the vision but because it was a difficult area of work to break into. They knew so many musicians that were still producing in their bedrooms. "So, what about you? Find anyone or someones that have been catching your eye?" @giacalloway

[griffinxreed]

During his runs he had always noticed her, noticed how pretty she was and how he'd like to maybe get to know her. But he never mustered up the courage to do so plus he didn't want to seem like a creep whilst introducing himself; hey I can't help but notice every time I run you're in the same area and I think you're hot just didn't seem like the best introductions. So when his dog started playing with hers, it was a perfect in. He did notice the way she looked at him, that plus her words definitely caused him to blush, "thanks. I try but you know sometimes I can't resist some dessert. I'll definitely take that into consideration....not changing my routine and stuff." He rubbed the back of his neck nervously before smiling softly, "that they do. And oh nice, where did you move from? I moved here last August so I'm kind of newish too." Any nervousness he had to talk with her had slipped away the more they chatted. "Tell me about it, I was floored when that happened. I had to take a beat and I almost asked them how the hell they remembered it. But it's' endearing for sure." @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

"Is there a best place to get dessert around here?" Frankie asked, her interest piqued by the thought of it. "What's your favorite kind?" She asked him with curiosity threaded in her words. "I moved from New Orleans," Frankie answered his question with a smile. It was the place she had called home for her entire life, but Kismet had been growing on her. It helped she had her family. Her sister and bandmates. They were the people that she loved most in the world. "It is," she laughed softly, "I didn't hate it, if I'm being honest." @griffinxreed

[franciscofontenelle]

A deep inhale filled his lungs as his thoughts circled around his sister. "She's quite something." Francisco spoke the words with the smallest possible chuckle. "Not sure how much I love her right now, given how much she enjoys terrorizing me." There was a humorous undercurrent keeping his words afloat. Enough to indicate that there was an undeniable fondness he would always hold for his older sister, no matter what she did. At the blonde's answer, Cisco nodded, as if there was a need to visibly undermine needless understanding. "I can respect that. I hope the town has treated you kindly so far." A tight-knit community like Kismet Harbor would be an easy field to connect, get oneself seen by many of the locals in order to build a group of likeminded peers around, if one so pleased. And something about her gave Cisco the impression that she would not struggle to find what she was looking for. "Where did you move here from?" @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

Frankie could sense the humor in the other's voice. There was an undeniable fondness, one that she recognized when she spoke of her own sister. No matter what happened in their lives, she knew that she would always have Gia. "Honestly, it has. It's been quite surprising. Not that other places aren't nice, but it almost feels like it's straight out of a movie if I'm being honest." Frankie was still getting used to it at the end of the day. "I came here from New Orleans, actually. My sister and I are in a band and while we've toured out this way, we thought it might be easier if we lived out here." @franciscofontenelle

[micaheverhart]

"Gia." Micah repeated, doing his best to take that to memory this time. He cared about the other's family because there was a part of him that cared about her. More than just a part of him; it consumed him some days, which is what had made him realize that he'd begun feeling something for her at all. A comfort, something familiar. Which should've scared him, but Micah wasn't one that ran from this feeling. "I'm glad you guys get along so well. I'm sure it's nice to have a built in best friend that you can share all the juicy gossip with like the boys your kissing." he shrugged. At her question he felt his shoulders tense a little, forcing them to relax as he shook his head. "No." he admitted. "I'm close to my second family, the ones that I've called family since I was a child." he admitted. "The Cowans. Andrew is the pastor of the church here in town and my mom was always heavily involved with the youth group, not to mention she was best friends with my best friend Felicity's mom -" he paused, realizing he was rambling about something that wasn't even part of her question. "My mom and I are still close enough, but I'm not as close with my dad or my brother." he stated. "My brother is older; the product of an affair my father had had years prior and when he and my mom divorced when I was eleven, I never saw much of him after that." he shrugged. "He was around where it was necessary, he's an oncologist ironically so he would travel with me to my appointments when my mom couldn't, and he always paid for as much as he could too, giving my mom the flexibility to stay home with me on the days that were really rough, but -" he let the sentence trail off, shaking his head. "All that to say that no. Now that I'm healthy and an adult I don't see much of anyone but my mom these days and sometimes I think she's upset that I'm closer to the Cowans that even getting ahold of her sometimes is hard." @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

Frankie looked to him as he mentioned all the boys she might be kissing. "Well, if that's your way of asking," she kept her tone light, teasing him as she spoke, "I am not kissing anyone." Except you, the words she left unspoken but hinted at as her gaze lingered on him. Frankie never thought she'd be the type of girl to date someone this much younger than her, but age was just that. A number. Micah was more mature than many people she knew that were her own age.

She steadied her gaze on Micah as he spoke of his second family. She knew what it was like to have family struggles. A mother that drank more than she parented. A father, well, a father that really never existed in her life. "It sounds like the Cowan's are amazing people." She spoke to them, almost wishing she would have had a second family to call her own. It had always been her and Gia. Gia and her. "It can be hard. I don't talk to my mom much either, honestly. It was easier when we were in New Orleans, but since moving, I don't think we've even so much texted outside Merry Christmas?" Her shoulders lifted into a shrug, "But we both have people that care about us and that's what matters." She paused for a beat. "I'd love to meet the Cowans sometime." @micaheverhart

[tomasxcooper]

Tomas was friendly, he had been the type to say hello and talk to anyone all the time. He was also a foster parent, he worked and owned a day care, and he didnt mind talking to anyone. He grinned as he saw her eye, wondering at his question. "Nah, I am free to have it all." Thankfully, he never had any allergies. "Same anything I need to know?" he would hate to get her sick or in the hospital by his choice. @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

"Oh, uh, no, I don't have allergies." Frankie answered the other's question with a shake of her head. She were grateful in that sense. Especially for all the years spent figuring out what to make at home for her and Gia. If she had been allergic to anything and found out that way, she wasn't sure she'd be standing there to pick out the other person's ice cream. "Alright, you go first." She gestured to the counter, "I'll make sure to stand here so I don't hear or see what you order." @tomasxcooper

[frankiexcalloway]

Frankie let out a laugh at Gia's excitement, her own grin lingering. "I know. Like logically it makes sense that we have vinyl out there but in the place we just moved to? I don't know," she shook her head, "Feels too good to be true." There was something surreal about it, seeing their names, their music, their work reflected like it mattered. At the mention of Micah, she narrowed her eyes playfully in her sister's direction. "No," she said, a beat barely passing before her smile betrayed her. "We have not hooked up but honestly, he looks at me sometimes, too long and I forget how to function. I didn't even think I was capable of such a reaction." She said with another shake of her head. "It's good. Easy. Which makes it a hell of a lot scarier." @giacalloway

[giacalloway]

"I agree!" Gia nodded. The vinyl itself hadn't been a complete shock - unbelievable still but not shocking since they'd literally created one - but to have it here in the town they'd moved to. Something she'd be talking about for weeks she was sure. It made her feel good, that all the hard work she'd put into everything to get here had been worth it in the end. As Frankie said no that they hadn't hooked up yet, Gia felt her shoulders slump. Sure she was slightly disappointed the sisters couldn't share bed stories but also because she'd been having so much fun hooking up she'd wanted the same for her sister. Especially with a guy she was clearly smitten over. "Well, I think maybe you should change that soon." she stated, a little more honestly than she probably should've been. "I mean, don't get me wrong. You do you, but, I will say hooking up has been one of the best parts of being in this town." she laughed. "I can tell you like this guy, though." she nodded, smile more genuine. "How does he feel? Do you know?" @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

"Yeah, maybe." Frankie was a lot more careful when it came to where she put her feelings. She wished she could be as free feeling as her younger sister, letting herself go and being able to walk away from someone else's bed without feeling much of anything other than satisfaction. Or so, she hoped that's what her sister was getting out of it. "I do like him, yeah," she felt her cheeks deepen with a pink flush. "I think he likes me too. I mean, he basically courts me and compliments me. Even is taking me on a date in a few weeks. It's weird in the way that it's completely not." Her shoulders lifted in a shrug. "But I'm not trying to rush anything either. We just moved here." @giacalloway

[micaheverhart]

When she agreed to go out even after hearing he was considering it a date, Micah felt himself relax. Arms extended behind him, hands palms down in the grass as he let himself gaze out into field of flowers, getting lost in thought. He'd enjoyed getting to know Frankie. It was unexpected, but there was something about her he couldn't get enough of. He asked what her favorite memory was and without a beat the smile on her face grew, her skin a little more glowy as she spoke and he let his gaze remain fixated on her, his own smile growing as he listened. "I can imagine that was a pivitol moment for both of you." he stated. "I don't like to assume, so I won't, but, I get the impression that you two are close?" Silly to ask he knew, but it was obvious if they weren't now they had been. "This is the sister in your band, right?" another pause as he thought of what he wanted to say next. "I think you two have something really special. Or did if you guys are suddenly not close anymore. Did you two do everything together before?" @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

Her attention settled on Micah, always settling on him longer than she had intended for it to do. His question tugged the corner of her lips upward. Of course, he wouldn't want to assume. For Frankie, there was something so wholesome about the way he started. "Yeah, Gia. We are still in the band together and still close." The conversation continued, her attention not shifting anywhere else. Looking at Micah had proven to be easy in the time she spent with him. "Are you close? With your family?" Frankie asked, shoulders loosening. @micaheverhart

[griffinxreed]

Griffin had never needed a wingman, but having a dog especially a friendly one never hurt. He hadn't ever purposefully used Huckleberry to get a woman or even to get any favors or free stuff. But it happened and who he was he to complain. As the woman spoke, he could feel his cheeks warming from blushing, he was hoping they were sporting noticeable tinge of pink at her words. Letting out a chuckle, he nodded, "I do, and yeah it's a little creepy but hey as someone who probably should change up their routine a little bit, and who is also trying incredibly hard to stay in shape, it's kind of nice having someone notice the work being put in." He opened his stance a little, loosening up as he spoke, "but in a small town, I guess it's also inevitable to run into the same people over and over. I feel like I have definitely seen you on those runs too." @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

At the mention of him saying that he was trying hard to stay in shape, she couldn't help the way her eyes wandered. As far as she could tell, he was doing a hell of a job of that. "I mean, for what it's worth, I think you're crushing that goal. Maybe don't change the routine, it's clearly working for you." Frankie added boldly, a smile tugging the corners of her lips upward. "Yeah, I've noticed that about Kismet so far. I haven't been here long, since November, but people like their routines and what not. I swear even after the second time I went to one of the coffee shops, the barista knew my order, like I'd been coming my whole life." @griffinxreed

[berkanxyilmaz]

"Nice to meet you." Berkan said as he sat, though at this point it was becoming more of a grumble coming from him than anything. He was growing more and more tired of being here and he could just leave, but he chose to stay. After settling, he looked at the younger woman. "I'm a family lawyer at Legal Lighthouse. I represent kids mostly during custody cases or when they're in foster care." He explained. "What do you do?" @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

Frankie had an inkling of a feeling that the other didn't want to be there. Though, that was because of the grumble that left his lips. It was obvious, but she didn't feel like calling him out on it. Not yet, anyway. Frankie listened, nodding her head along to his words. "Wow, that's impressive work." Though she doubted that was the first time he had heard that. "I'm in a band with my sister and I'm also a horse trainer at Equestrian Estates." Frankie told him, knowing that the two didn't seem like they'd mix at all as career choices. @berkanxyilmaz

With the sleeves of his shirt rolled up, Cisco leaned on the top of the table that looked to small for his tall and lean frame. The name tag stuck to his shirt, right where his heart was beating, was peeling at the sides already. He struggled to recall the last three conversations he'd had, as they all sounded like an echo of the same script. "So, actually my sister signed me up for this." He spoke the words aloud before he could veto the decision. "She likes to wreak havoc on my life, even after she moved." Astounding. "What are you hoping to get out of tonight?" @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

Frankie could have said she was taken back by the candor of the other, but instead it tugged the corners of her lips upward. It was the type of honesty she was looking for at the speed dating event. "I think I love your sister already." Frankie teased, brushing blonde tendrils of hair from her face. "Honestly, I'm pretty new to town so I thought this would be a great way to meet people. It's not the normal way to meet people, friends or dates or maybe enemies, I don't know. The night is still young, but I figured what the fuck." @franciscofontenelle

Berkan took a deep breath and looked at his smart watch. To him, this whole speed dating thing was taking way too long. He could've been spending his Saturday doing something else. Anything else. Like working on the Newton case. Or the Wilson one. Any of the cases he had with court dates coming up soon. But instead, he was there and trying like his sister told him to do. Like it was that easy, though. It was never that easy. He took a drink before heading to the next table and he forced a smile as he sat down. "I'm Berkan Yilmaz." He introduced himself to the woman sitting across from him.

[frankiexcalloway]

Frankie had spending a lot of time with Micah and yet, she still found herself at speed dating. She had signed up before her feelings for the other had developed and it felt too rude to back out now. She didn't think anything would come of it, if she were being honest. But, it would be a good way to market herself, at least that's what she was hoping. When someone sat down across from, she curled her lips into a smile. "Hi, Berkan." She steadied her gaze on him, "I'm Frankie Calloway." The blonde introduced herself in return. "What do you do for a living, Berkan?" @berkanxyilmaz

[griffinxreed]

Who: @frankiexcalloway and Griffin

Where: Tails and Trails

When: May 2026

One thing Griff absolutely loved about Kismet was the amount of outdoor space there was that allowed for recreational activities. He just loved being outdoors, and that did include going for a run in the early hours of the morning. After sometime he'd see the same people, some of which he'd make up stories in his head of who they might be. And there was this girl, someone who caught his eye that he had never expected to, but after a while he'd come to enjoy seeing her each morning. With Huckleberry buzzing from the energy he needed to expend, Griff brought the dog to the dog park, in hopes of getting said energy out. Plus one could never socialize their dog enough, and he was in need of doing so. "Okay have at it dude," Griff said to Huck as he unhooked the leash for the Australian Shepherd, and immediately the gray dog found a friend. Following the way the dog walked over to a blonde, his heart skipped a beat... It was the same woman he saw on his run each morning. "I think my dog has taken a liking to yours," he said with a smile, leash in hand as he walked over to her and pointed to them playing with one another.

[frankiexcalloway]

Frankie took June to work with her on a regular basis but even on her days off, she liked to get the Australian Cattle Dog out of the house. Though they had traded their apartment for a sizeable house in Cresthill Meadows, the dog park was a place that June enjoyed. She had been standing, arms loosely crossed over her chest when another dog came up to join them. June immediately took to the dog, baiting him or her into play. She turned, the sound of a voice catching her attention. Her lips curled upward into a smile at him, recognizing him from her runs. "You, uh, wow this is going to sound incredibly creepy. But do you run often? I feel like I've seen you running before." @griffinxreed

[micaheverhart]

"Blink too many times and it just might." he admitted, offering her a smile. He certainly felt like that. He'd blinked a few times and felt like he'd grown into a full fledged adult one he still didn't know how he'd gotten here some days. When she agreed to go with him, however, Micah felt his smile widen. "And I'd love to take you; it's a date." he nodded, turning his attention back to the view in front of them. He could sit here in this place for hours, alone or with someone, but, he had to admit that this would be one of the best memories when it came to this place. "I'm just happy I get to share it with someone." he admitted, eyes shifting from the view to Frankie. "What's your favorite memory? It can be about a place like this one, or just a general memory, I'm not picky. I just want to learn more about you." @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

"A date. Perfect." Frankie found herself saying without a beat. There was something about Micah that kept drawing her in and so easily. She hadn't expected to be falling for someone in Kismet just a few short months after moving there and then along came Micah. He caught her by surprise. At his question, she felt her lips thinning with a purposeful thought. "My favorite memory," she said after a momentary pause. "Honestly, has to be this one time I picked my sister up from school. We were young, younger than we should have been to be out on our own. But I had scrounged up enough cash from the apartment that my mom had left laying around and we went to get ice cream. There was just something about her smile that day. It was pure, innocent and like it was the best day of her life right then, right there." Frankie slowly shook her head with the memory, "It wasn't a moment either of us got to experience often so I carry it close to my heart." @micaheverhart

[tomasxcooper]

He nodded with a laugh, "Normally I get what leftovers the kids don't finish or don't like," so he was well used to trying whatever, so something didnt go to waste. "it's a good way to try something new" Ice cream was always good so easy thing to change up if you were willing to try. "No, let's play a game," he laughed as he was only kidding. "You pick mine, and I pick yours?" See how it went, he thought it would be fun. @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

Frankie was surprised at a this man offering to play a game in picking ice cream. Yet, she had to remember she was in Kismet Harbor. It wasn't New Orleans were one had to be a bit more on edge when out in public, especially as a young woman. In Kismet, people were simply kind because they could be and wanted to be. "Oh, okay, sure. Any allergies?" Her brow raised in his direction, not wanting to be responsible if he ended up in the hospital based on her selection. @tomasxcooper

[giacalloway]

Gia was known to be less level headed and more imaginative in comparison to her sister and the other bandmates, but when it came to things like this, Gia would say it was fate every time. Yet as her sister talked about how excited she was, Gia let her own smile widen. "It's so weird right? Like, I know these exist but seeing this is just so surreal!" she spoke, shaking her head. "I don't think I'll ever get over it." she added, voice singsong tone, yet she settled in on the couch and let her gaze meet her sister's. "Ooh, yes, Micah." she nodded, smiling a little wider. "How is that going? You two hooked up yet?" she teased, raising her eyebrows. @frankiexcalloway

[frankiexcalloway]

Frankie let out a laugh at Gia's excitement, her own grin lingering. "I know. Like logically it makes sense that we have vinyl out there but in the place we just moved to? I don't know," she shook her head, "Feels too good to be true." There was something surreal about it, seeing their names, their music, their work reflected like it mattered. At the mention of Micah, she narrowed her eyes playfully in her sister's direction. "No," she said, a beat barely passing before her smile betrayed her. "We have not hooked up but honestly, he looks at me sometimes, too long and I forget how to function. I didn't even think I was capable of such a reaction." She said with another shake of her head. "It's good. Easy. Which makes it a hell of a lot scarier." @giacalloway

location: cedar grill and lounge

Showing up for speed dating meant that Frankie was going to partake in the free drinks. When she signed up, she hadn't been seeing Micah. At least, not as much as she was now. If anything, Frankie had settled into the evening for the free drinks and inevitable disaster stories that would come from it. She lazily spun a the little paper name card between her fingers, contemplating climbing out the bathroom window if her next conversation was anything like her last. She only dropped the name card when someone else sat down, her eyes landing on them. "Alright, so are we doing this small talk thing or do you want to jump right into the hard hitting questions? Like how emotionally unavailable are you, really?"
