“I promise this won’t take too long..” Eric proposed with a hopeful grin before taking in her words. “Yeah it’s not that hard I mean were you off to somewhere?” he asked, a slight raise now showing in his eyebrow. “All you have to do is stand up against that bridge, look over the lake a bit… sunset is going to do all the work for us.” he explained.
“ eh, it’s okay. ” letty gave a dismissive wave of her hand, shaking her head and half-smiling. “ not really. just leaving work. ” she expressed with a sigh of relief. no matter what time it was, it was strange to hear, especially since she’s almost always working at the vet clinic. she placed her purse on the ground and pointed at the bridge. “ um, okay. ” letty nodded positively and sauntered toward the bridge, leaning against it and looking over the lake.
i’m really trying to respond to starters, but i just realized i missed out on a few intros here and there, so catch me being a sloth. if we haven’t plotted, please give this post a like and i’ll come crashing intro your im’s.
“Care to help me out?” Eric pressed his words, his eyebrow arched as he held an old camera in his hands. “I need some shots.. all you gotta do is just uh stand there.. I’ll do all the work.” he proposed as he scratched the back of his neck. “Free beer at the end for your troubles?”
“ it depends. ” she looked at the camera he held and tilted her head. she was unsure about her picture being taken... let alone pictures. “ so you’re tellin’ me that all i have to do is stand here ? ” all she could do was shrug but there was a smile. “ well, all right. why not— what do you want me to do ? ”
“Maybe I am the most interesting person in Sprigg? It’s just not that no one knows it yet” she winked, before smirking. “I Might well do, the house is rather large and old, it definitely has the haunted house aesthetic…” She said proudly, and tilting her head. “Do you believe in spooky houses?”
“ — and what makes you say that ? wouldn’t you have to work up to that rank ? ” he cocked his head, lifting an eyebrow. obviously joking around. it wasn’t evident from how serious he might’ve looked, though. seconds later, a smile appears on his face. “ well, if it’s large and old then maybe it is. ” john smirked, looking at her. “ can’t say, i’ve never really been. ”
Xena sat herself up when he spoke, her eyebrow raising at him. “Intriguing bad, or intriguing good?” She wondered after a moment, not the best conversationalist but at least giving it a go. “Nothing better than being a spooky witch.” She half chuckled.
“ that wouldn’t be— definitely intriguing good. ” jonathan nodded his head awkwardly but lightly chuckled. “ well, not only that but you’d the most interesting person in old sprigg. ” he looked away momentarily. “ so, you really live in a spooky house ? ”
“I will personally be proud if I eventually become known as the lady who lives in the large scary haunted house, the one who kids run away from saying that a witch lives there. That would be the one true legacy I’d love to leave” Xena murmured, mostly for herself, an eye then cracking open when she realized that she wasn’t alone, having not expected to have been noticed as she lay on the grass taking in the peaceful surroundings. Too peaceful for a woman who had lived in the rush of LA for so long.
sitting on the grass nearby was a man with his sketch journal, drawing a design that occurred to him in that moment. he never left home without it. at any given moment, a spark of inspiration would hit him... so he carries the journal around as it were his child. john couldn’t help but chuckle softly at the other’s declaration that wasn’t quite meant for him in the first place. he looked away only slightly to return his gaze upon her afterward. “ sorry, i didn’t mean to overhear but that was intriguing. ”
hello, beautiful humans ! i’m frankie and i’m very excited to be here. of course, i’m super duper late because let’s be honest, i was a bit unprepared and then i had a very hectic day, so it’s safe to assume that i’m literally rushing to post this. please note that since i’m starting out with two muses ( pray 4 me ), i’m gonna introduce them both here, under the read more, & hopefully with enough context if anyone is interested in plotting things out and whatnot ... so this might be a tad bit longer ! also, i think it’s very important to see detective pikachu in a car seat. thank you & goodnight.

☾ ▹ ° ⋅ paul rudd / forty-nine / cis male ; have you had the chance to meet jonathan goldstein ? he has lived in old sprigg for most of his life, gaining a reputation for being quite charismatic, reliable, quirky & tense. this heterosexual leo can be found around dubois bakery and he works as an architect. most people tend to associate them with an artist’s desk and piles of sketches.〈 loved by frankie, 23, cst, she/her. 〉
this vampire guy right here was born and bred in old sprigg, missouri, so old sprigg isn’t just a small town for him. his family had money so he had an a-okay upbringing. parents were pretty strict, having a set of rules for john and his siblings. he’s the oldest of four; one brother & two sisters, so as you can assume, the goldsteins were a crazy, jewish ménage.
growing up, he always had a keen interest in architecture. he’d point out the many buildings whenever they traveled. little johnny’s goal was to become an architect. before that, john wanted to be an astronaut, but that’s besides the point. he went to usc and graduated with a bachelor of architecture degree.
deciding to stay in california for a few years after graduating, he found a job at a design firm. starting out as an intern wasn’t too shabby, though. he’s a talented guy and the owners of the studio noticed his talent ... after 3 years, almost a little too late. however, he couldn’t find it in his heart to say ‘no’ to becoming a part of the team.
worked as an architect for 15 years before moving back home. however, he’d left behind the opportunity to start his own design firm. prior to coming back, his long-term relationship ended and was absolutely devastated. he’s STILL as single as a missing pair of socks. tragic. [ 37 years old ] : returned despite how heartbroken he was.
he’s one of those fun uncles. he’s got a couple of nieces and nephews. the family keeps growing and growing, then there’s jonathan: single but he doesn’t mind one bit. or does he ? doesn’t believe in marriage, so give him someone to love who might believe the same thing about a piece of paper ?
living in california, he traveled twice a year to old sprigg to visit his old pals and family, so you might’ve seen him around. goodbyes kind of suck, so he isn’t one to say goodbye. whenever he had/has to leave for a while, he will say: ‘see you later’ or ‘i’ll be back’ with a peace sign, trying to avoid making a reference to the terminator movies.
not an important note/quick summary: was away from missouri for 19 years. graduated from university of southern california. intern to full-time employee. pleased as fuck. met someone and dated them for a long ass time. she ended it. came back to old sprigg. heartbroken. moved on. been home for 12 years. single af. perhaps too old to become a parent / low-key gives up. works at home. active. constantly travels due to work. a busy bee, workaholic.
personality wise: confident in communication skills, helps others feel confident if permitted, positively confident without being boastful and egotistical, lowkey lives a carpe diem personality, able to be trusted, honest & often times too straightforward but means well, creative af, quirky and witty sense of humor ( if it isn’t written out that way sometimes, i apologize beforehand because i think of witty things to say a day too late ), regardless of being charming and whatnot, he’s tense; will become anxious and nervous at random times of the day. easy-going. / more to be added.
aesthetics: an artist’s desk in a design studio ( aka home ), a shit ton of sketches in piles basically overflowing his home, planners filled to the brim with important dates regarding personal life and work, etc. / more to be added.

☾ ▹ ° ⋅ inbar lavi / thirty-four / cis female ; have you had the chance to meet ayelet al-azwár ? she has lived in old sprigg for seven years, gaining a reputation for being quite ambitious, good-natured, sensitive & worrisome. this bisexual pisces can be found around the clover and she works as a veterinarian. most people tend to associate them with white coats and messy hair buns.〈 loved by frankie, 23, cst, she/her. 〉
this girl has a love and hate relationship with her name. not only is it hebrew for ‘deer, gazelle’ but her mom’s constant reminder that it ‘fits’ her makes her give up. letty is, in fact, her nickname. she’ll introduce herself as dr. al-azwár if you’re stopping by the old sprigg veterinary clinic for your furry lil friend’s check-up and whatnot.
she grew up in a jewish household in brooklyn, new york. the al-azwárs are of moroccan and polish descent, so she grew up learning hebrew and arabic, plus a few other languages. probably a linguist. honestly, she never stops learning in general. if there’s a library, then knowledge is power. was in ap classes through the school years... including college. but she wouldn’t consider herself a genius. always pressured herself to be the best. she’s a damn perfectionist.
with her parents permission, she had a job when she was 16 years of age, so had been earning money ever since — dreaming of attending college. thankfully, mom and dad were more than okay with her wanting to become a veterinarian. they supported letty in every step of the way. which came to a surprise for her but she didn’t question them at all.
earned her doctor of veterinarian medicine degree ( dvm ) when she was 23. took a gap year before attending [ name of college ]. pretty fucking proud of herself, even though there were pretty hard obstacles along the way, and she was up for any challenges. but let’s face it, life after college can be tough af with landing your dream job. especially in new york.
managing on getting her degree, she worked two part-time jobs to be able to afford rent, since she decided to move to manhattan afterwards. just 2 words: big mistake. letty isn’t the type of person to ask for help, considering she is still paying off school. it’d been 2 years until she realized that the best choice for her was to move states. well after paying her taxes and bills, and making a budget. at that point, she was on the verge of having a mental breakdown.
giving her landlord the heads up, the first thing she did was notify her parents that she was selling her studio apartment and moving back to brooklyn, and into her childhood home. asking if it was all right because she’d refuse to accept their money and advise them of their retirement plan, hoping to care for them when the time came. a little superstitious, letty knocks on wood every time.
choosing to move to old sprigg, missouri was completely random. however, she had the desires of moving to a small town. the first thing she did was buy a ticket to missouri and visited the charming town. she fell in love with old sprigg; it had / has its charm. how long did she stay ? A WEEK, and it was enough for her to make the decision.
for the past seven years, she has lived in missouri and worked as the vet at its clinic ( totally forgot to mention she lived with her parents for 2 years beforehand ) and couldn’t be happier. letty can be found hanging out at the clover with a glass of wine in hand with a book in her hand.
personality wise: has the strongest desire and determination to succeed. kind, friendly, patient. the mom friend to people she’s closet to. concerned more with the needs and wishes of others than her own. has a quick & delicate appreciation of others’ feelings, especially with animals. inclined to worry, a clinical worrier. introverted but ambivert. / more to be added.
aesthetics: white lab coats, messy hair buns, curly hair, pencil skirts, etc. / more to be added.
wanted connections: give me everything and anything. im’s are OPEN !
discord: i constantly change my username lol so please ask for it, if you prefer to plot through there; i’d happily give it to you. c:
Looking back, I’m really happy with the choices I’ve made in my career. I know for a fact I could be wealthier. Who knows, maybe I could be more successful, maybe not. I don’t know. But just about every single thing I’ve ever done I’ve gone into with the right intentions, and that goes a long way.
