                        a run down
Luisa is an only child, and was actually raised by her grandparents, following her motherâs brief arrival into Amory, where she was hiding from her husband. She gave birth, and handed the child over to them without any word. To this day, her mother is M.I.A. But thatâs not something she concerns herself with these days.
Her grandmother named her after Luisaâs great grandmother, and in turn feels a deep rooted connection to her family lineage (with the exception of her mother and âfatherâ).
It wasnât until she was a teenager that she found out the devastating truth behind her parents, until that point she was just told that they couldnât afford to raise a child. In reality, her mother was on the run, and didnât want to subject her child to the wrath of her abusive father.
For the most part, she neednât concern herself with the people who created her. She holds a lot of resentment, thatâs bottled up though. Especially to her mother. Who went back to the man after her birth. She understands itâs normal for people in relationships like these to struggle to get out, but as her mother, she wanted more.
Due to the pent up frustrations she struggles with, she does her best to channel it into something proactive, rather than erupting on people for the smallest of inconveniences. So, sheâll mostly do kick-boxing to work out, but she doesnât do much more exercise outside of that. She especially hates cardio (gross!).
High school was pretty standard, though she definitely felt luckier than most. No negative experiences came out of her time there, and she actually developed her most important friendships from this time in her life. She definitely wasnât cheerleader material though, thatâs for sure!
After high school, she went to college, and followed the one interest that she picked up from a young age, though her grandparents always joke it was through all the medical dramas she watched as a kid, and eventually became a paramedic for the local hospital.
As for right now, she lives in her own place in Amory Village, she doesnât have a roommate, but she doesnât tend to need one considering the landlord always rocks up and tries to fix things in her place. Sheâs pretty sure heâs trying to get in her pants. Youâll see him mentioned in posts, she is desperate to move out ASAP!
                    wanted connections
BILINGUAL BUDS: So, her entire family is from Mexico, her grandparents moved to Amory a few years prior to Luisaâs birth. So, Iâd love anyone within the community that they likely get themselves involved in, who also speaks Spanish (extra points for anyone from Mexico, as a connection to her home would be amazing!), so we can delve into their connection through language. No real limit on this, as the more the merrirer! (0/?)
I LOVED YOU: So these days, Luisa is more of a serial casual dater, and doesnât tend to have the time to jump into anything serious due to her job, but she did have one ex with whom she was entirely committed to before things got chaotic. I see this as someone she dated in high school, or college (or throughout both). They donât have to have attended the same one, and he could be a few years older, but just someone during that period in her life. I donât have a specific plot for how it played out, as it would be dependant on your characters story, but this would be a fun one to play out. (0/1)
NO BREAKFAST: So, as mentioned above, sheâs usually one for a night encounter and thatâs about it. So, past conquests, and friends with benefits types are ideal. Donât expect her to stick around for breakfast though. Sheâs also bisexual, so this is open to both male and female muses. Again, no real limit, but sheâs not going to have like 20, so if I feel Iâve already got a few of these, Iâll cap them and say so here later! (0/?)
WEâRE PARTNERS: Iâd really like a partner, I know this one will be harder to come by, until we have more paramedics in the group. But think Chicago Fire with Shay and Dawson vibes. Though it can be male or female, obviously! But someone she spends her shifts with, and they probably know each other better than most, considering the amount of time they wouldâve spent together at all hours of the day and night. (0/1)
ANGER MANAGEMENT: As mentioned in the bio bit above, Luisa tends to take her anger out doing kick-boxing for the most part, though she could dabble in other activities of a similar nature. Iâd really like someone to either be her instructor or to be someone that does the training with her, either or. Just two people kicking and boxing it all over the place. (0/1)
THE USUALS: This is basically just a generalised notice, of all of the usual connections you come across, be it friends, neighbours, acquaintances, and all the like. Just hit me up if none of the above work, but youâd still like to find some connection/plot, âcause we can do the usuals, or find something more bespoke. Iâm pretty open to whatever plots you wanna explore! (UNLIMITED!)
HOW LONG THEY HAVE BEEN IN AMORY? Native â 29 years.
FACECLAIM: Melissa Barrera.
II. BIOGRAPHY.
TRIGGER WARNINGS: Â Abuse mention, Drug mention.
Luisa GonzĂĄlez â where does one begin with a life such as hers? Sheâs had her ups and downs, for sure, but it mostly stemmed from the moment her biological parents conceived her; her father nothing more than an abusive alcoholic who liked to take his anger out on his unfortunate wife. The gentle and timid woman was sucked into a life of chaos, due to who she was in love with. So, she decided that enough was enough when his temper had gotten the best of him, so much so, that she had almost lost her unborn child. With that, she scampered off in the night, tip-toeing around the aggressive man, whilst she gathered her already prepared belongings in a small backpack, her passport, and what little money she had, before venturing to the airport to catch the first flight from Mexico, to New York, though she was willing to go just about anywhere that she considered safe enough to have her baby. However, she wasnât necessarily here to start a new life for herself and her daughter together. It was too dangerous, when her husband could find them at any moment, she didnât wish a life of secrecy and torment on her child; so, upon her birth, she had immediately asked the nurse to take her child to her guardians, who would later be established as her grandparents, who had moved to New York following their retirement. Â No name was given, she didnât even once hold her child for fear that she would change her mind, because at the end of the day, she had already succumbed to that unconditional love that mothers speak of, and it was that, that spurred her decision to know she deserved a better life than that of which she could supply. And though her grandparents were older, they could still manage to supply a lifestyle that she could not. And she had no intention of coming back to the States thereafter, immediately going back to her home in Mexico City.
Unfortunately, Luisa, as named by her grandmother, after her great grandmother, wasnât initially aware of what she was missing. Life as she knew it was standard, right? At first, she was sure that this was the norm. And that her grandparents were actually her parents. A lie that would later amount to tense relationships, and an abundance of confusion washing over teenage minds. It wasnât until she was fourteen years old that she learned the truth, following a letter from the mother that vowed to stay away. A desperate plea for forgiveness and to meet the daughter that she had given up to her own parents. But alas, to this day, itâs a woman sheâs not met, nor feels any maternal connection to. Whilst she was initial furious with the lies, at the end of the day, her grandparents played the mother and father role just fine, and she continues to call them mom and dad, even now. Sure, she had the usual teenage angst as she grew up, and a temper to match, but her grandparents were the people who raised her. Sure, it was a difficult pill to swallow, especially when she learned of the nature of her father through the stories her grandfather shared one night, when perhaps heâd had one drink too many, and due to the way in which she struggles to showcase her vulnerabilities and emotions, to this day, she continues to bottle it up. Perhaps thatâs something that runs in the family? Itâs just yet to be established if itâs her motherâs side, or fatherâs..
High school definitely wasnât the time of her life, the brunette subjected to catty girls who thought that money made them invincible, and guys that thought their jock status meant they were entitled to getting into any girls pants. This was why she had kept to herself for the most part, and where she truly settled into her lone wolf status, aside from a select few that she didnât deem as the spawn of satan, or something equally as insulting. Nonetheless, she graduated with flying colours, and thankfully, she was able to then attend college etc, due to the family she was lucky enough to find herself in (she really did have to give props where they were due, her mother made a solid call on where she decided to give up her child). They had been saving for her to attend school, knowing that she was always interested in the field of medicine, and despite, to this day, her lack of bed manner, it was something she had achieved successfully. Sure, she may not be the one to sit there and coddle someone, but she knows what sheâs doing, and it was that alone that secured her the role of a paramedic in the local medical centre. There was no intention to travel off to another state to something new, and away from home, like most did her age, because at the end of the day, she knew she was lucky where she was to an extent, and though sheâs not one to shout it from the rooftops, itâs definitely the case. So, she has stayed in her hometown of Amory, New York, knowing it had an abundance to offer her just outside the town limits, and even within, and has been working as one of the local paramedics for some time now; even managing to make some friends in the same field.
