hi!!!! i’m twisted (she/her), and this dork is ollie, who you will find more information about under the read more. feel free to message me for plots/connections/etc!!
here’s some plot points about my Boy:
he loves music. will talk your ear off about it, if you give him the chance. he was classically trained as a pianist when he was younger, and he still plays, but he finds himself more drawn to electric guitar these days.
the fontaine family comes from old money. ollie was raised to follow proper social etiquette, but that doesn’t mean he’s good at it.
he uses said old money to live, more or less. he makes money performing, of course, but he wouldn’t be able to get by with his current lifestyle without a little help from his trust fund.
smokes like a mf chimney. mostly cigs, but he’s definitely not apposed to pot, either.
he’s not apposed to most party drugs, for that matter.
can usually be found at some sort of concert venue, or else a bar, or else a house party.
he loves love, but he’s shit at it. he thrives on feelings of new romance, but rarely follows it to the stages of an actual relationship. mostly he just tries to make out with everyone.
would probably do anything for the ~aesthetic~. for example, wearing the same leather jacket everywhere, or buying fresh roses just to decorate his apartment with, or color-coordinating his outfit to look good with whatever guitar he’s performing with but trying to make it look accidental.
he’s a cat person. he doesn’t have a cat, but that doesn’t stop him from keeping extra cat food in his apartment for the sole purpose of feeding the strays.
hi bbys!! i woke up to seeing my follow post which is fab bc that means i have a few minutes before walking to work to post my intro ey!! so ANYWAYS, i’m cel, twenty ( it’s only been 8 days but that’s still strange to say like im not a teen anymore wtf ) and function in eastern time!! i’ve only been in amsterdam like twice on connecting flights lmao but it’s so beautiful honestly so i’m hyped to be here idk?? so yeah here’s a lil on aleida until i get my shit together & make a stats page.
001 ; aleida was an only child in the sense that her parents kinda both nope’d out of her life and was taken care of by her grandparents. so she grew up close to her cousins but never really felt like she had that proper upbringing.
002 ; forced to grow up way faster than she meant to. she was always good in school, graduating early and all that good stuff. she dreamed of majoring in english or some foreign language and becoming a writer / editor, but gave that up when she got pregnant for something more ‘practical’.
003 ; she takes care of herself and her kid religiously ok. there’s the level of ‘oh i can go for walks once a week’ and then there’s aleida’s ‘i’m eating kale for dessert’ level. reads mom books and watches shit like the secret on the daily it’s gross.
004 ; softer than wool ok this binch is way too fucking optimistic for her own good and it makes her come across as naive half the time. she doesn’t gaf tho she’s just like fanning away you pessimists with her lavender incense.
005 ; used to be a hopeless romantic but lmao look at where that got her. for the most she’s just v independent ( or tries to be and screws up a lot ) and tends to push people away if she finds herself too reliant.
and i gotta go now but hmu for plots yea?? i’d love to get some friendship plots like friends who are basically forced to like each other, bffs who sit around her patio sipping lemonade in the afternoon, enemies who actually have a lot in common and enjoy their company but would never admit it for whatever reason, estranged family and iDK i can come up w smth on the spot tbh just find me.
INTRODUCTIONS: hello! i’m your friendly neighbourhood lucy, and this beautiful small bean is rory. in case you can’t tell, i suck at introducing myself, but i am going to try my diddly-darn best. click under the cut to hear me ramble some more, so i don’t jumble your dash with my 1am coffee fuelled zeal. i’ll probably pass out after this, but shoot me a message; i’ll hopefully get to replying to some starters in the morning !
so, you’ve made it this far! as i’ve probably said like three times already, i’m lucy, gmt (fun factoid: ireland, so basically britain but rainier), and i go by she/her pronouns. i’m also small & need friends ok. but enough about me, and more about the love of my life, rory aldridge.
her name is actually aurora, but she’s sick of being a sleeping beauty (”i’LL SLEEP WHEN I’M DEAD”), so she’ll literally go by any other name.
originally born in germany (berlin), she had a sweet gig going on. she’s the youngest out of three triplets, and she loves her brothers w/all of her little heart and soul.
her mom is german (hence the slightly strange brothers-grimm name), but her dad is actually from the u.s, so she’s fluent in both languages.
things were chill until rory was about seven. they discovered that she was a pretty sick kid, and not in a cool way. she was born with a pretty severe congenital heart defect, pulmonary stenosis, and was in and out of hospital all the time. they only discovered it late, and she had to undergo open heart surgery to try and fix it. it left a pretty nasty scar, and it’s one of the only things she’s still super self-conscious about. even now, she’s still in and out of hospital pretty often, as they check to make sure the leakage in her heart isn’t getting too severe.
so, yep, she’s lived in germany all her life; that is, until the thought of university rolled around. amsterdam was a roll of the dice; she wishes she had some big, monumental reason for it, but she doesn’t. however, a dream of being a tourist in her own life and plunging herself out of the comfortable normality of berlin was enough to get her started. between her slightly rusted red bicycle, cozy flat in east and her college classes, she’s pretty happy with the whole ‘close your eyes and point’ choice that led her here.
she’s usually the bohemian, easy-going one, and she’s very reluctant to talk about anything remotely negative in her life, though will gladly listen to others complain. she suffers from pretty bad anxiety attacks, and she’s lucky they’re relatively infrequent, if incredibly intolerable when they do happen. this & her heart defect are really the only aspects of her she tries to hide; she wholeheartedly believes it makes her “screwed up”, and is too ashamed to mention it to anyone.
my lil bean is a kool kid B) tho. the whole heart ordeal only solidified her “carpe diem screw the government” attitude, and she’s a big believer in seizing the day. from animal rights protests to 3am ice cream under the stars, rory tries to make the most of the life she's got, painfully aware there's always a chance that hers will be shorter than she hoped. she can be a little reckless, and a little bit too impulsive sometimes, but she does try to be kind to everyone and has a rlly good heart (the irony) underneath the snark and humour.
AND IF U MADE IT THIS FAR, I SALUTE YOU. i tried to bold the important parts for tl;dr but i’m a bit of a rambling mess. i’m always a mess™ for connections, so hit me up with anything — everything works!
feel free to shoot me an IM, i am filled with love & bad puns to share. if not, just like this post & i will bring my messy typing and hard-to-understand slang to ur inbox
nikolas is from athens, greece and he comes from a sailor family. his father owns a fishing business and exports local fish to nordic countries. ever since he was a child, he has always felt the weight of his family legacy on his shoulders but it has never been a burden to him until he graduated high school, when he realised that he didn’t want to follow in his father’s footsteps and that sculpting, to him, was more than just a hobby. of course his father was not happy with his son’s decision but eventually he agreed to send him to GSA.
while he was studying in glasgow, he had plenty of time to travel and explore different cultures. during his stay in amsterdam in his senior year, he met an art gallery owner, who, after seeing some of nikolas’ work, absolutely fell in love with his style and offered to host his first exhibition in her art gallery after his graduation.
as soon as he graduated, he flew to amsterdam for his first exhibition as a professional sculptor and before he even knew it, he was looking for an apartment to stay in amsterdam permanently.
FACTS
nikolas is a very private person. he’s usually cold and distant but it’s not because he doesn’t enjoy socialising. his art is his whole life and more often that not, it gets in the way of his social life. he’s very passionate about what he’s doing and his passion for sculpture always busies his mind, pulling him away from reality most of the time.
he cares for, probably like three people lmao.
he’s an art hoe.
he hates social media.
he’s also very interested in painting but he’s not really good at it tbh but he knows all about art history. what a nerd.
i guess that’s it ??? if you want to plot please let me know. i love plotting. byeeeeeee.
was that eiza gonzalez out in bos & lomer ? nevermind, it was just that cis female bartender — camila vásquez. she is twenty-six, and though she is originally from cozumel, she has been in amsterdam for seven years. i heard she is aggressive, but she seems versatile to me, so it makes sense people call her the vixen.
camila was born and raised to a traditional household in cozumel, meixco
she is the middle child in a family of five girls
she lost her father in a work related accident when she was seven and her mother had never worked a day in her life so providing for her and her sisters was a constant struggle
she always pushed cami and her sisters to have kids young which kinda scared her and put her off on the idea of starting a family of her own
however, she started to change those thoughts when she met a guy named miguel at the age of sixteen
she moved in with him when she turned seventeen and that’s when the relationship turned abusive, it took her two years and one miscarriage to escape from the relationship
she tried to explain to her mother the situation but she didn’t want to listen and urged her to return to her ex, so feeling like she had nowhere to go she packed her belongings and skipped town
she took off to amsterdam and bought a one way ticket with no intentions of returning to the small coastal island, but deep down she still feels bad for leaving behind her sisters
she’s tried making contact with them on multiple occasions but remains unsuccessful
camila still has nightmares about the violent fights she would get into with miguel and those events were something that turned her into the free thinking independent woman she is now, she’s the kind of girl who takes no one’s bullshit
she’s been working the same bartending job but is interested in branching off into the law enforcement area
