[lyndhurstblaise]

ooc. blaise/mercedes

[lyndhurstmercedes]

Honestly I feel like these two really help balance the other out!!!  Like, she gets him to smile and laugh and try new things and he encourages her to slow down and think rationally and appreciate what she has, yknow?  HE WANTS WILD SHE WANTS MILD I CREY <3  OMG but she def teases him about that ‘are you sure you’re ready for this?  don’t you think your siblings might look at your differently if they knew you were looking for a wild night of watching old movies and off to bed by 9:30????’ and that sort of thing smdh

But I do think she enjoys hanging w him and sometimes even Cedes needs to slow down a little bit, so I think, all in all, she can always make room in her schedule for a ~mild night of debauchery ;DDDDD  Though that never stops her from trying to get him to push the envelope and smh ‘don’t you want to know what it feels like to be buzzed just once?’ ~cedes asp probably meanwhile Blaise is probs already buzzed but she loves to tease smdh

[lyndhurstblaise]

blaise: please don’t tell them okay, i will be disowned forever 

mercedes: you say that like it’s a bad thing 

jk jk but yeah I def agree!!!! And yeah, I can see them actually doing more chill things together, which is good for cedes, and then letting loose others which is honestly good for blaise <3 ugh i love friendships that balance each other haha 

DON’T YOU WANNA KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BE BUZZED JUST ONCE ;DDD 

blaise: *looks down at his WWLD (what would lionel do) bracelet* no

anyway, how long do you think these two have been friends, btw???? I keep going back and forth on whether or not the storms/davenports have just known each other for a long time b/c they run in the same social circles, or if they’ve been more recently connected through drea/lionel ... and I can’t decide which is better haha, um, so thoughts on this?? 

[lyndhurstblaise]

ooc. blaise/mark

[lyndhurstmark]

OMG but Mark honestly loves hanging w Blaise too!!!!  I feel like honestly have such a good time together and Mark honestly probs drags Blaise down all the time like Blaise could do so???? much better????  But at least they have fun ;DDDD  I also feel like when Mark’s about to do something particularly dumb, it’s good to have Blaise as a friend bc yknow Blaise is actually sane ;DDDD

Ok, so….the truth is….I am Iron Man not sure??????  I think it depends on the individual case yknow?  For example, I feel like Ryan and Bea def know the truth!  I feel like, in general, those who know him from ~before he “dated” Bea know the truth and those who met him afterwards, don’t?  But I don’t think that’s an absolute rule, or anything?  I also def think that Mark sort of did it as a favor bc she was upset and he actually is secretly nice shhhh and so I don’t see him blowing the whistle on that?  

So only people Bea would’ve told know that it was a fake date?  Unless it somehow otherwise came up bc he’s not gonna outright lie to a friend either, so if Blaise walked up to him and was like ‘yo was your relationship w bea real?’ he’d tell him it wasn’t, but at the same time, if Blaise asked more indirectly, Mark would answer indirectly so as not to betray it?????  And the same goes for his social status thing????

So really, it depends on Bea a lot hahaha  also I’m up for whatever would generate the best plots always, so Blaise could know or not know depending on what we want to do with things ;DDD

[lyndhurstblaise]

HAHAH, I feel like blaise enjoys having fun up to a point, but yeah you’re right, he’s def gonna be the voice of reason and be like “yo, we should not do that thing” (whether or not mark listens i guess is another story haha, but blaise def would walk away b/f doing anything that would drag his family name through the mud smh)

okay so I feel like bea hasn’t told too many people … I actually feel like there’s a high chance that she hasn’t told anyone??? 1) b/c it was hella embarrassing to be stood up like that and this was all a good distraction from her own feelings (b/c it was way easy for her to be like “hahaha i’m so over mark” when ppl would ask vs. talking about her REAL feelings about the guy who actually hurt her but also 2) I think she’s finding the whole charade v fun and if anyone knew then that wouldn’t be any fun … so unless otherwise stated, I feel like no one else does know??? (that being said, I feel like Sophia may be the one person who does know)

SO okay now that I’ve talked myself through that, I’m guessing blaise doesn’t know that the date was fake and so is mark’s fortune haha.

ALSO you commented me twice with mark/blaise and i’m just gonna include that comment below:

hahahaha mark is probs like ‘bro ill totally be your wingman w sage if youll be my wingman w fiona’ and that awk moment when mark is trying to set up blaise and sage even tho neither of them actually want to be together o.0

AND I’M CRYIN’ b/c blaise would be like “okay!” but yeah irl neither sage or blaise ACTUALLY want to be together (at least in that way heh) but no one needs to know that, especially since to blaise those are just minor details smdh

[lyndhurstblaise]

ooc. blaise/gigi

[lyndhurstblaise]

lyndhurstgiselle:

So i sort of love the idea that they’re from the same world but have never ever actually managed to meet properly? I feel like Gigi is absent from so many events, especially like the last ten years, so its definitely likely that would happen. Honestly she’d be super flattered and find it very sweet if she ever found out he’d had an interest in her before even meeting her just because of what he’d hear about her (and a bit surprised considering he’s friends with Cedes, haha) and honestly probably would have been interested in dating him (and possibly saved li and drea from some of their current troubles? haha) but obviously the timing was totally off… 

i do think she’d develop a lot of respect for him very quickly once she picked up on how he was devoted to his family (even if she doesn’t know the whole story). and honestly, some of his other family members are sort of making her question what she thinks about the storms as a whole (even though she likes lionel well enough), so she would warm to him fairly quickly? now that she’s actually come to lyndhurst (which she was sort of trying to get out of until constance was killed in that accident) she’s become sort of fascinated witht he whole place and probably always has questions about things for him (including why he has so many strange reclusive relatives that seemingly appear out of no where!) 

ahhh I actually love that, too??? especially b/c if the timing had been different, they possibly could have had a chance, but as it is, I feel like they don’t (but like in a future life maybe? ;D) 

anyway, I feel like blaise tends to take ppl’s opinions (especially about family) w/ a grain of salt/ultimately judges for himself b/c I feel like a lot of his friends/family (although while he loves them a lot!!) tend to have different opinions than he does on others and ultimately he is just gonna wait to figure things out for himself (that being said, I’m sure he’s heard lots from cedes, but also probably lots of good things from her other sisters). 

but I feel like he’d love that she likes him, at least, and that they can be friends (if nothing more) and he’d love taking her around and showing her things and answering her questions (not always honestly haha but as honestly as he can anyway??) 

[lyndhurstjoshua]

OOC | Joshua & Blaise

[lyndhurstblaise]

lyndhurstjoshua:

So Josh has a good bit of business w Cyrus.  Do you think Blaise might be involved in any of that, as his eldest kid, or do you think these two would have a  strictly social relationship?

I wanna say yes??? but it’s difficult b/c we don’t have a cyrus haha (since we don’t tho I’m just gonna go w/ yes???? I mean, I feel like blaise would ~want~ to be a part of his business idk he’s just really taking on everything that he should as his eldest son and I feel like that would be included??? especially since I feel like he would be the best suited, regardless of his age, of all of the cyrus storm kids to do that??) SO, yes, I feel like they would also have a business relationship!! and tbh I feel like blaise probably knows him more b/c of that relationship, than he does just socially??? 

But they also have the gigi connection!!!! i feel like there’s probably a little bit of jealousy on blaise’s side re: that??? not that I think he shows it (or if he does it probably comes out in weird ways smdh). and like on one hand, he hopes that something happens there, b/c they look happy and it might be good for them but yeah he’s still jealous and not exactly as selfless as he wishes he was and even tho he’d never let himself/gigi be a thing, it still hurts to see her w/ someone else even if he knows that it is what’s best for her??? 

[lyndhurstaldus]

OOC | Aldus & Blaise

[lyndhurstblaise]

lyndhurstaldus:

*cue aldus generally trying to pressure blaise into awakening lyndhurst, whatever that means, it sounds fun*  No, but Blaise is family and if there is one thing Aldus believes, it’s that family is sacred.  Which essentially means that, in Aldus’ book, Aldus can mess w him bc he’s family, but no one else can???? smdh  Notwithstanding though, I don’t think Aldus has much occasion to torment Blaise or anything????  Actually, I can see him quite liking Blaise on the dl bc Blaise is so sane honestly and Aldus needs all the sanity he can get bc he’s a bucket of crazy, himself honestly hahahah

Anyway, how do you think Blaise might feel about Aldus?

TRYING TO PRESSURE BLAISE INTO AWAKENING LYNDHURST B/C THAT SOUNDS FUN!!!!!!!

haha but blaise on the dl being like “join the club idk what that means or how to do it so …”

I feel??? like??? the feeling is kinda mutual???? or rather at least in that I feel like blaise is generally annoyed/frustrated w/ aldus and doesn’t really like him, BUT yeah blaise does buy into the FAMILY IS EVERYTHING thing-y and aldus is that, so at the end of the day, he’s there for aldus/got his best interests at heart, etc. etc.

but yeah while aldus on the dl likes blaise, I feel like blaise, on the dl doesn’t like aldus ~laughing/crying emojis~

[lyndhurstevelina]

OOC | Lina & Blaise

[lyndhurstblaise]

lyndhurstevelina:

Ok, so Lina would really like Blaise!!  And between Roland and Anastasia and Gabriel, I’m convinced they’ve met hahaha  I’m not sure how close they may or may not be, though, but Lina’s basically like #kudos basically

I feel like blaise would really like her, too!!!!!! also, yeah they’ve def met ++ probably have known each other for a long time??? I feel like the yorks + the storms have been a big part of each other’s lives for awhile now???? also blaise was def rooting for eveland/rolina tbh and he was def disappointed (but unsurprised lbr) when they broke up :/

all that being said, despite her friendship w/ gabe and anya, I don’t think that they’d be super close or anything?? I feel like blaise doesn’t hang out with his siblings that much and so idk that he’d see that much of her then, b/c of her relationship with them?? 

[lyndhurstcassidy]

OOC | Cass & Blaise

That awk moment when this dude is planning to marry your sister after a few weeks bc he thinks she’s rich but she’s not…

[lyndhurstblaise]

blaise: i’ve made a huge mistake ;DDD

hehe but yeah since he has no idea that the winstons aren’t super wealthy ... he’s all about sage #facepalm. and b/c of that, he’s def gonna make an effort (more than he normally would) to get to know her sisters and get their ~*~approval~*~ 

I do think that he genuinely does enjoy all of the winston girls, tbh??? i mean, he doesn’t really want to marry any of them, but hey tbh they are way better than any of the girls he thought he was gonna half to marry, so he def considers this a win ... but yeah, as I’ve said before, he’s def gonna pretend to actually care more about sage than he does ++ he’s really good at this (s/o to his mild persuasion which def doesn’t hurt anything) 

um that being said, idk what cass would think of blaise? i can’t remember if she’s one of the winstons who are super distrusting of the storms or one who is like “um guys chill this is awesome idk why you are freaking out"

[lyndhurstverena]

OOC | Verena & Blaise

Ok, so #nothingpersonal but Verena doesn’t just want to kill Blaise, she wasn to ruIN him #funaunt  Her intent is essentially to make an example of him and his mother so no one will ever try what she did ever again and she’s been stalled up till now but atp she’s out to destroy his life and kill him.  

Something Kate brought to my attention is that Blaise is interested in Giselle, and she wondered if Verena might know this, so I thought I’d pass this question along?  Hahaha  So how obvious/not obvious do you think he is about that?  If she does know, ofc, Verena will want to tear down Gigi as well #goodtimes

So yeah, anyway, I feel like she actually plays nice w Blaise so it’ll be easier to destroy him, when the time comes #facepalm  How do you think Blaise might feel about her?  I’m sure, however nice she might act, he knows what she did, etc, so there’s that too hahah

[lyndhurstblaise]

blaise: just when i thought my life couldn’t get any better ;DDD

okay so first off ... I feel like blaise isn’t super obvious about his feelings towards giselle?? b/c he is all about maintaining the illusion to everyone that he really cares for sage. that being said, I feel like he’s not as careful w/ keeping up these pretenses when he’s around (at least some of) his family, since it’s their idea that he pursue sage in the first place, y’know? so verena may well know that he’s not actually in love with sage??? especially if she creeps around/doesn’t make herself known haha she could very well have overheard the storms discussing blaise and his pursuit of sage????? 

when it comes to giselle, though, I don’t think that he’s ever said anything to anyone and he’s been very careful not to ever indicate to her or anyone else that he feels anything else but friendship for her ... but he’s still been kinda attentive to her, despite this, so at the least (especially if verena is keeping tabs on him) she’ll at least know that giselle means a lot to him?? she might even be able to pick up on it, especially if she’s been kinda ~watching~ blaise his entire life y’know??? like she probably knows him pretty well atp, especially if she’s been trying to play nice w/ him until the right ~moment~??? 

as far as how blaise feels about her ... so if she’s always been kind to him, that’ll def alter things ... like he (as you said) knows what she did and that all of their problems basically stem from her curse haha (#thanks). blaise also loves his family ++ he likes to think that people can change/do better and so I think he’d be hopeful that she has ... that being said, no way in hell is he ever gonna trust her b/f she proves this beyond a doubt (blaise: i like to think my relatives are good people, but i know better), so I think he’s always been kind in return, but he’s never gonna take her into his confidence or anything

[lyndhurstsophia]

OOC | Sophia & Blaise

S/o to Blaise for being a Storm and yet stiLL somehoW being sane!!!!!  ;DDDD  No, but I def feel like Sophia would like and respect Blaise a lot!!  Also, she’s friends w Sage, so if she thinks he’s genuinely interested, she’d probs try to get them together?  If she thinks they’re not, though, she would try to talk sense into both of them hahahah

[lyndhurstblaise]

I agree!!!!!! I think blaise likes sophia a lot and tbh he was def like “yo we should tell anthony what’s up!!!” bc he saw what her death did to him and knowing that she’s a ghost might help him??? at least w/ closure???? (altho ultimately I feel like sophia being “Dead” and staying dead is the best thing for tony just b/c he’d never be able to move on if he knows she’s semi-alive??? altho at the same time he thinks he’s insane now so that’s fun haha I feel like it should be all or nothing hahah) bUT ANYWAY everyone was like “NO” so blaise was like “okay” and def respected that choice but anyway

sooooo I actually feel like blaise is scary good at lying/manipulation??? not that he uses it that much but when he wants (see: has to) convince someone of something, he can??? and I think part of it is b/c he’s generally a very genuine person and ppl who know him wouldn’t think that he’d ever be this way, but he can be ... so in regards to himself/sage, I feel like most people (who don’t know that he’s trying to get w/ her b/c of her fortune like his fam) will probably believe that he genuinely feels for her in that way, and I feel like sophia will be one of those ppl honestly? 

[lyndhurstblaise]

ooc. blaise/mercedes

I feel like whenever blaise wants to party, he calls up cedes??? like I don’t think he’s nearly as wild as roland or beatrice (actually I know he’s not!!!) but I think he definitely likes to let loose a little sometimes. that being said, I think he does always ~party responsibly~ and he never has too much to drink/NEVER gets himself in the tabloids or anything, but yeah. basically when he wants a “wild” night he sees if cedes is up for a “mild” one haha

[lyndhurstblaise]

ooc. blaise/mark

omg I feel like blaise loves hanging w/ mark so much!!!!!! also quick questions: does anyone know that mark isn’t rich btw??? like his friends?? or does everyone think he’s rich??? also how many people know that mark/bea’s relationship was fake?

(I’m not sure that either of these things would honestly affect their friendship haha, I’m just curious) 

[lyndhurstblaise]

ooc. blaise/gigi

so blaise is interested in gigi and I honestly think that he has been for awhile?? i mean on a more lowkey level b/c I’m not sure how much interaction they’ve had before now (if any??) since she’s been busy with ballet and then, later, her injury, but I think he’s always been interested to meet her, b/c he’s heard lots about her ++ she’s someone in their social circle who is actually going out and living her life the way she wants to live it and she just sounded like a very genuine and hardworking person and blaise really respected that ... and I think he honestly became even more interested in her when he actually met her and found that she was all that, plus she’s beautiful and kind (if a little sad). 

all that being said, he’d never actually pursue her b/c 1) lionel’s with drea, which means the storms are already getting a storm/davenport marriage so 2) it would be better for the fam if blaise got with s/o else so he’s going after sage winston instead but mainly b/c of 3) and that’s b/c he def doesn’t feel he’s good enough for her and he doesn’t want her to share his messed up life and then also 4) that she's not interested in him

he’d still like to be her friend though, at least, and make her feel at home while she’s here at lyndhurst!! 

[lyndhurstvictor]

OOC | Victor & Blaise

So these two are best friends!!  I feel like Blaise def brings out the best in Vic and makes him see that everything isn’t ~terrible and actually try sometimes hahahaha

[lyndhurstblaise]

awww!!! I love that blaise helps bring out the best in vic! <33 he def loves being optimistic and encouraging!!! and I feel like he really is when it comes to vic especially since, in a lot of ways, I feel like vic breaking free of his family and living this simple, but fulfilling life, is exactly what blaise wishes he had??? and in a lot of ways I think that he kinda wants to live vicariously through him haha b/c he knows that there’s no way that he’ll ever have that ++ his place will always be w/ his family eSPECIALLY since he’s the “chosen” one or whatever 

[lyndhurstlionel]

OOC | Lionel & Blaise

Thank God for Blaise!!!  Lionel honestly doesn’t know what he’d do wo him!!!!  Even so, these two are still 8 years apart, but I feel like Blaise is def one of Lionel’s closest and best friends, yknow???  Esp bc he’s one of the only ppl out in the world who knows about things but Lionel doesn’t have to worry might (accidentally or not) blow the whistle on Lyndhurst, yknow?  I also feel like, as the two eldest Storms, they’ve often been sort of ~thrown together~ and Lionel honestly is just so happy there’s someone in his family who displays actual sense ;DDDDD  Not to mention, Lionel like everyone else, also def believes Blaise is the ~*~savior~*~ who was foretold for Lyndhurst as well hahaha

[lyndhurstblaise]

I feel like the feeling is honestly mutual????? and I feel like blaise isn’t ~super~ close with any of his siblings and so he’s just extra happy to have lionel??? like he’s his cousin/best friend, but also in a lot of ways, he’s the older brother he never had???? and omg, blaise feels bad for feeling this way, but he’s also just really happy that lionel is gonna be the next earl and not him b/c blaise DOES NOT WANT haha. but ahhh yes, there is literally no chance of blaise EVER revealing lyndhurst’s secrets!!! like there’s nothing that you could do to him to get him to betray lyndhurst/his family b/c he literally lives and breaths for them hahah

anyway, I feel like blaise is a serious dude most of the time, but not as serious as lionel and I feel like maybe he can get him to smile/laugh/relax every now and again??? I also feel like they are probably good for each other’s sanity haha just like living @ lyndhurst w/ all the crazy and i GET the feeling that they can sit down together and hash things out rationally??? b/c I feel like a lot of their family is a little more ~emotional~ sometimes???? 

OH! other question which you may have answered somewhere --- but do all of the storms live at lyndhurst????? or is it just lionel +++ his mom +++ his siblings/everyone else is just there for now or ???? 

[lyndhurstblaise]

ooc. blaise/anya

omg so blaise loves his sister so much!!??? and honestly, idk what he would do w/o her haha. I mean, I don’t think they are nearly as close as blaise would like, tbh, but I feel like they still have a good relationship??? and blaise is so happy that the ~wild~ storm kids have taken to her and how she can kinda ~calm~ them and he’s just really happy that they all have each other, at least?? blaise also just really wants anya to know that she can always come to him w/ literally anything anytime??? I think he knows that he’s not her first choice when it comes to confidants, but he’s here just the same. <3

blaise arden storm (29) chace crawford

Status: Witch/Psychic Past Life Era(s): n/a Occupation: Heir Relationship(s): Cyrus Storm (father), Adelina Blackbourne (mother), Ambrose Storm, Gabriel Storm (brothers), Anastasia Storm (sister), Celeste Storm, Evangeline Blackbourne (aunts), Lionel Storm (cousin/best friend), Beatrice Storm, Roland Storm (cousins), Victor Carrington, Theodore Remington, Piers Storm (best friends), Juniper Wright (best friend/ex-girlfriend), Giselle Davenport (interest), Sage Winston (friend/pursuit), Mark Bishop, Mercedes Davenport, James Grant, Ryan Orson, Godric Storm, Sophia Walker (friends), Verena Storm, Regina Storm (unknown enemies), Oliver Crane (mother’s boyfriend), Lesley Grimes (father’s secretary), Daniel Fischer (rival) 

tries to be a good person

but isn’t always

at the end of the day he will (and has) do anything and everything for his family w/o even a second thought

he’s honestly v frustrated with like 75% of his family at any one time, but the truth is that he loves them unconditionally and he is always motivated by what he deems as “best for the family” when he makes decisions

probably a huge reason why he and lionel are bffs??

that being said he isn’t as severe or serious as lionel tends to be 

blaise has a sense of humor and likes to keep things light, if he can

(that’s really not always super appropriate at lyndhurst tbh but when he can crack a joke to ease the tension he will) 

blaise does have a lot of guilt over the questionable things he’s done in the name of his family??

not that he’s ever full on regretted them, b/c he knows he’d regret not doing them even more

like his pursuit of sage winston, for example

he does like her, but at the end of the day, he wouldn’t have thought twice about getting involved w/ her if it wasn’t for her money

he’s very determined to win her over and he will honestly say and do anything to achieve that end

he does think that they could be happy together (even though he knows they could be happier if they found someone that they, y’know, actually loved but details, details!) 

blaise is a very dutiful son and will always listen to his parents

this doesn’t mean that he won’t try to talk them out of something, especially as they can both be more ~extreme~ than blaise, but at the end of the day if they decide on something, he’ll do it even if he doesn’t agree w/ them smdh

is currently developing feelings for gigi davenport

honestly would never actually pursue her tho b/c he doesn’t think he’s good enough/doesn’t really wanna drag her into the lyndhurst family curse but most importantly, lionel is already getting w/ a davenport so blaise had better find his own wealthy family to pick an heiress from

honestly there’s a lot of pressure on blaise 

not only is he the eldest in his family but he’s also thought to be the “savior” who will return lyndhurst to glory 

he’s not entirely sure how he’s gonna manage that but he feels like he better figure it out

would honestly be so relieved to find out that he isn’t

(not that he’d want that for gabriel, either)

blaise loves his siblings a lot!!!!

likes to think that he keeps them all together but he knows it’s like 10% blaise, 90% anya

(when it comes to oz, it’s probably -2.3% Blaise, 102.3% anya b/c Blaise only makes things worse rather than better w/ him. def worries about oz a LOT) 

actually not as close w/ any of them as he’d like to be

honestly too busy w/ all of the family things to spend too much time with them??

makes him really sad :/ 

as much as he does for his family and as much as he loves them, he would switch out his life for another in an instant

literally none of this is ideal as far as blaise is concerned: the house, the curse, the ghosts, the death, the magic, the lies, the secrets

but blaise has always been about making the most of things

he’s not a complete optimist, but definitely a realistic one 

he lives his life being prepared for the worst, while hoping for (almost) the best
