⟡ THE NEPO BABY ⟡
MOTHER: betrophia elise kent – actress / movie star FATHER: kingston kent – retired NBA allstar player, author of two self-help-esque books ( currently writing a memoir ) Everyone loves Lennon. Or so, that’s what she wants you to believe. Born to a professional athlete for a father and a movie star for a mother, Lennon Kent hasn’t worked for a single ounce of attention in her life. Well, except for that of her parents, of course. With a doting nanny and friends who wanted to be captured in her spotlight, the young woman seemed to be surrounded by the kind of fame and attention that everyone yearned for. But alone, at home, when no one else was around, people had little reason to love her or find her worthy of their affections. Turning to literature and falling in love with stories that kept her mind far from Hollywood life would be the only thing that kept her from losing every ounce of sanity as a child. Even with all of the money and fame, perhaps especially with all of the money and fame, Lennon finds herself lonelier than ever.
That doesn’t mean, however, that Lennon hasn’t learned to use the outward attention to her advantage. She will bask in her spotlight for as long as she can, often finding herself thrown off of her game when someone in her circle is given more of a glance than she is. She uses her mother’s success and her father’s career to rope you in, hoping her curated persona keeps you around. The hardest part, however, is that beneath it all, she just wishes someone would love her for exactly who she really is.

⟡ GREER MORRISON ⟡
RELATIONSHIP: Greer’s Roommate
Everyone always talks about how they wish their roommate would get hit by a bus, for the free tuition or the guaranteed passing grades or the absolute lavished attention one receives when something terrible happens. Lennon might have wished it for other reasons, but when Greer disappeared, her heart all but shattered in her chest. This is the one person who seemed to know just how fucking hard the mask was to keep securely in place at all times. Throughout their friendship and subsequent living arrangement, the pair had gotten to know one another like no one could even imagine. Lennon had even begun to see the moments when Greer almost released the white-knuckled grasp she kept on her public image. It is, of course, worth noting that no one knew Greer like Lennon did. Knows Greer like Lennon does… whatever, the point is that her secrets were scrawled on the inside of Len’s mind as much as her own. She saw so much of what went on in her life that her opinions of people changed quicker than the seasons. All she wanted was for Greer to share things with her rather than her having to find them out herself. Over and over again, she proved to keep the mask on more often than not. Would it have killed Greer to want to be as close to Lennon as Lennon wanted to be to her?
