22 | "women like you should not be brutalised by love. you are generations of blood and fire, you are all war. take your knees from the floor. don’t look at him. something violent and brutal and ugly is howling inside of you. act like it."

She is like a disturbed tide when it comes to her feelings. sometimes she’s full of energy and her feelings are overflowed that seems like she’s burning; but sometimes she’s completely numbed and empty that seems like her heart has frozen.

Does grief exceed words, or is it the other way around? How do you give voice to the animal howling inside of you?

oh, hi der.

what’s your name? whereabouts are you from?

name’s liv - i am the tender precious age of 21 and live in montreal, canada where we have had a sum total of four sunny days this summer. yes.

when playing Clue, who do you usually play as?

go ahead and judge me babes but i’ve only played the Simpsons version of the game HA. but i go for krusty the clown as colonel mustard. i just can’t resist the charm. i tried lisa as miss scarlett once and it just wasn’t the same, ugh.

what’s your favorite character archetype / superlative?

i always go for one of two: either the protective badass vixen who will cut a bitch but also has the most vulnerable heart for the people she loves OR the compassionate lover of people who just pours her heart into everyone she knows because she has a nightmare of a past. i like the deep, dark, complex ones because they can be masterfully manipulative and such a bitch but you know it’s worth something even though that doesn’t make it right?? i’d say it’s because i relate to them but i’m not actually that complex or interesting and NOT manipulative tbh hahahaha

what was the last tv show you watched?

QUEEN. SUGAR. you guys. if you haven’t watched, you MUST. i promise you won’t regret it. tricky tricky emotional family drama and just so many layers and so much love and ugh. oh and oprah produced. ava duvernay directed. hiiiiiiimean come on.

what’s your favorite horror movie cliche?

the teetering swings or creepy windows, always. it’s the wind, dude. just so cheesy and overused but also somehow gets me every damn time and i just don’t know where to go from here.

if a murderer / monster / generally creepy dude were about to break into the room you’re currently in, what would you do with what you have?

wait, so i know he’s about to break in before he does? oooooh man. probably jump out the window. fuck the stuff. okay, maybe i’d take my wallet and phone and like a picture of my dog and best friends? idk - i’d like to think i’d be rational but let’s be honest, i’d get the fuck outta there screaming and make a massive scene and never look back.

if you’ve played Until Dawn before, who did you most identify with?

saaaaaaaaaaam. ugh what a babe. i just love her quirks and the fact that she does what she wants and really couldn’t care less what everyone thinks. she’s weird and different but also so chill and relaxed and decisive and so herself. i just love that in any character, really. also she usually stays out of the drama which is me in a nutshell. ugh i love hER (and also hayden panettiere highkey obsessed since i was a child and always wanted to be friends with her).

are you leaning towards a gender / sexuality / name for your character? what is it? we really want to know.

yep, yep, yep. i’m that rper that plans everything out and honestly, i love my muse for it. her name will be rome ramos, fc camila mendes (i think?? idk i always go through fc phases where i can’t imagine playing anyone else and right now she’s that for me). sexuality wise - bisexual. i just can’t play straight characters, which is so strange because i’m straight. for some reason i always start out which a muse that is decidedly straight and they always venture the other way i don’t know what it is. i guess i just really love human connection in general and IRL, and so my characters usually end up personifying that and just experimenting with whoever they connect with?! i’m going for the sell-out, i’ve decided. i’m working on a bio slowly but surely, and i’m thinking something pretty heartbreaking happened that turned her from an innocent people-lover into a harder shell of her former self. i just really love the damaged ones, guys. something that made her hate the place she was from, and do everything she could to turn away from it. i’m still sifting through but i’m really, really excited and i won’t even try to hide it because WHO HAS TIME TO BE COOL.

she’s like coffee, too weak or too cold, never “just right,” but always welcome when the sun has yet to rise. she’s like coffee, but she makes your hands shake, and you can’t have her.

I liked that about her. She was unpredictable. Sometimes the things she said and did were surprising. Sometimes they disturbed me. But she was exciting, and that’s what I liked most. She was so many, many things but she was never once boring.

INTRO | rome ramos •••☽

hiya babes!! i’m liv and this is rome (most call her romi) my true sinnamon roll. i’m a total plot monster so throw anything at me, the crazier the better, and chances are i’ll be 220% down with it. can’t wait to meet you all! for now, here’s a little bit about my rome:

tw under read more: death, PTSD, alcoholism

BIO:

· to be completed

PERSONALITY:

romi’s fire and ice. she’s loud, sarcastic and always brutally honest. she speaks her mind and is not afraid to tell it like it is. she’s the only girl in a family full of guys and she can stand with the toughest of them, often considered tougher than all of her brothers combined. she also knows how to ask for what she wants, in the best way to ensure that she gets it. she reads people incredibly well and can quickly find your weak spots -- she also isn’t afraid to use them against you if you really cross her. however, this all stems from how passionate she is. she is strong-willed and fierce. but the same is also true for the people she loves. if she likes you, you will know. she warms up to people easily and can maneuver her way masterfully through a conversation with a perfect stranger, being a social butterfly. she will protect her loved ones at all costs, and will always be loyal. if you break through her shell, she will give her heart to you, endlessly. she’s an eclectic mix of feminine and masculine strength. she’s also really silly and just loves sweets and food is everything yes.
