while NOA wouldn’t count herself as the p r e t t i e s t girl in new york city ( or at least not OUT LOUD ) a stick of foundation and 2 stacks of lashes could hide a m u l t i t u d e of SINS. “ does my ass look flat in this ? “ paddle pool shallowness oozed from her lips, honey-saturated vanity staring back in the reflection of her mirror. “ never should’ve convinced myself that white was my colour. “ exaggerated sighs worthy of every OSCAR up for grabs blended with the incoherent humming of... someone. probably CARDI B or whoever else mounted in the scorpio’s ‘ b a d b i t c h p l a y l i s t ‘. the one only appropriate with tori in the vicinity, of course, to dissect the lingo that was out of ORBIT in noa’s brain. “ hey, can i borrow your shoes? my toes are feeling particularly shy today and those boots look so h o t on you, so can you imagine them on M E ? “

BIOGRAPHY :
car crash and death tw, anorexia tw
- was born valentina salome noa cardenal-vasquez in alicante, spain. her father was a big time lawyer in spain, specialising in famous criminal cases. he was pretty ruthless and straight-talking. her mother was a fashion model, who very much played the doting mother role to sheer perfection. her father was pretty emotionally absent.
- grew up very very affluent. think long gravel drives with a fountain in the centre, all the jazz. valentina got everything and wanted for nothing, which transitioned smoothly into her diva complex as she grew up. never being told no, she forgot what the word meant.
- has a little brother named vicente who she would take a bullet for. very much translates to her current friendships. she is an ice queen, emotionally absent but fierceful loyal and would do whatever it took to keep those she loves safe.
- moved to america when she was 11. definitely played into the preppy, popular girl at school despite being consistently teased for her lack of english. it was when she was 15 that she met hugo durand and was convinced the two would life together forever. ( perhaps naively ). and maybe they would have.. if he hadn’t died in a car crash when noa was 18.
- felt a lot of pressure to look perfect both through adolescence and young adulthood, a product of her notoriety and being the daughter of a model. she developed anorexia around 13 and still struggles with it to this day.
- goes by noa instead of valentina bc edgy
- a cookie cutter scorpio and slytherin, noa’s ambition and drive can sometimes cause her kindness and compassion to take a backseat. but she’s working on it. she doesn’t want to be like her father; heartless. but so far all her lessons on love have ended in absence and tragedy so she’s a little...confused by the notion.
- wouldn’t deem herself creative, but is very fashionable ! think cher horowitz meets 90s supermodels and you’ve got yourself noa’s style. she would MUCH rather you called her a heartless bitch with no talent than say her shoes were ugly.
- studying law because she’s passionate about justice and not because her father was a good role model. and also because he would’ve shipped her back to spain pronto if she had studied anything else.
- a bit lost, a lot broken but most of all ready to make positive changes. she wants to do better, be better, and not let past grievances allow her to self-destruct
