gertrude was raised by a single mother with a ‘take no shit’ attitude. said attitude was passed down directly to her.
her number one passion in life is — or was — track. she had dreams of being an olympic athlete, and she was certainly training hard enough to get there. she could outrun anyone that tried her. she was fucking good. then came her knee injury.
after two surgeries and a lot of denial, gertie had to kiss her plans for the future goodbye.
she’s still bitter, but tries to pretend she’s over it.
daddy issues? not at all. jk. lots of ‘em.
her dad didn’t abandon her exactly, but he basically did. when he left her mom he moved to another country and didn’t make much effort to see his only daughter. too many ‘i got too caught up with work to wish you a happy birthday, sorry baby’s and promised trips that never happened.
she does not like being called gertrude unless it’s by someone she likes. really likes. they get a free pass.
she has a black cat back at home with her mama named sabbath.
she adores her mother, though they don’t have the most affectionate relationship. her mother thinks she should be strong and not let anything bother her. she’s pushed that onto her since she was a little girl, and it’s probably why she cannot healthily express her emotions.
the only way she knows how to process her feelings is to take it out on punching bags.
is only in this school because elle is here and she wasn’t willing to be without her.
she gets super attached to the people she cares about. she doesn’t necessarily show it but when she loves, she loves hard, and if you have gertie you’ve always got her.
loyal af, basically.
she definitely believes in love and has even been in it before, but is terrified of getting hurt or giving someone the ‘power’ to hurt her.
v sarcastic. good luck getting a serious conversation minus the wit out of her.
she is not mean. really, she’s not. but she is far from nice.
definitely a bit of a tomboy. not one to wear a dress, skirt, or overdo her makeup.
