( haley lu richardson )? no that’s ( brielle albright ) the ( twenty-one ) year old ( organic skincare entrepreneur ) who has been in town ( twenty-one years ) and reminds everyone of ( soap-silked bathwater, early morning farmers’ markets, rose scented perfume, and hazy summer sunsets ). maybe it has something to do with the fact the ( cisfemale ) is always ( hedonistic & blunt ) or ( ambitious & resourceful ). either way ( she ) is apart of the town.

her PINTEREST board to get a vibe for her
first things first, Very Gay. like…. so gay. the gayest.
brielle was born and raised in tallow, the youngest albright twin by fourteen minutes.
growing up, they were inseparable; through their parents divorce, father’s complete uninvolvement and mother’s shitty string of boyfriends, they were each other’s constant. charlie was her protector and she was the mastermind of all their schemes.
she’s always been super into the glowy girl aesthetic - like has always wanted her life to feel like a sofia coppola film, and is huge on aesthetics, so from a young age she was always messing around with ingredients in the kitchen, concocting face masks and oil blends; eventually, she perfected her recipes thanks to the internet and library, and started selling them on the weekends at the farmers market, and eventually over instagram when she earned enough spare cash to buy herself an iPhone.
her kindness and indomitable spirit are something she owes to charlie. something she never realized until it was too late was that charlie shielded her from the majority of the hell they lived through, standing up to the strange men their mother brought home periodically, working two jobs from the time he was fourteen to keep food on the table so bri could focus on her skincare business
eventually, things got desperate enough that charlie became involved with the seedier underbelly of tallow in their sophomore year of high school; running drugs and dealing to other kids at their high school until he ended up getting expelled for possession midway through their junior year.
things went downhill from there; brielle fought tooth and nail with her brother, FOR her brother, but the money was too good for charles to resist. one night, he didn’t come home, and as four am rolled around brielle ran barefoot to the police station in a blind panic.
despite being a minor, the cops wouldn’t release an amber alert due to his known criminal activity, and as the first forty-eight hours dwindled brielle just knew, deep in her soul, that her brother was gone. he went on the namus, and has seemingly been forgotten there.
graduating high school without her brother by her side was surreal; her life since charlie’s ‘disappearance’ has been TOTALLY surreal. the second she turned eighteen her mother’s current boyfriend tried to make a move on her and she packed her things into her vw camper, living out of it for several months before finally finding a decently priced house to rent for herself.
now, running saguaro skincare out of her attic / ‘home office’ with a modest three person staff, she’s managing to make a living and build a decent customer base between her website, instagram, and the weekend farmer’s markets, dedicating a large chunk of her spare time at the sheriff’s station hoping if she makes enough noise they’ll make at least a little progress on her brother’s case, doing her own recon and poking around, trying to find at least some semblance of closure, or a new lead.
WCS: core squad / housemates, employees, exes, crush / girlfriend, charles’ friends (gang members she hates, childhood friends, etc.), maybe a cousin or two? i’m also a HUGE fan of brainstorming so feel free to like this post or hmu through dms/discord to plot !!!
