NAME : anthony giacomo borsi | GOES BY : ant, borsi | GENDER & PRONOUNS : cis man ( he / him ) | D.O.B. : june 30th ( 25 ) | FACECLAIM : antonio cipriano

known to be LOYAL, CHARISMATIC, and SENTIMENTAL, but also WORRIED, ADDICTIVE, SELF-SACRIFICING, IMPULSIVE, and STUCK, they have been in intercept FOR 6 YEARS, currently working as a GAME OPERATOR at astroland, and a CASHIER at fuel me up.

Ant grew up an only child to Anthony and Mariam Borsi. While his mother stayed at home, his father was almost always gone, busy working as a pilot. Despite being out of the house most of the time, typically picking up extra flights, Anthony Sr.’s career affected them in more ways than his absence. First they’d had to leave New Jersey when a better job came up in Florida. Florida came and went before being replaced by Ohio. Fortunate enough, Ohio lasted long enough for Ant to really settle in— only it couldn’t be that easy because then tail end of junior year, they were packing up again, this time for Roswell, New Mexico.

Suicide TW. Ohio wasn’t exactly the most exciting place to grow up, especially in the suburbs, but it worked well for Ant because he had Kevin. It’s funny how something as simple as a fifth grade class seating chart could be the catalyst for two boys becoming best friends. Together they were classmates, near neighbors, and ultimately teammates. Baseball was one of the biggest bonds they shared— two Mets fans in Cincinnati Reds territory. They both were good, though Kevin was always better; that fastball of his was the whole reason scouts were even watching their games. Then the move happened. But that didn’t change the end goal— Wichita State, playing for Gene Stephenson. When Kev got the scholarship offer and Ant got his acceptance, determined to make it as a walk-on, it all seemed like it was going to work out. But then Kevin got injured. Not sidelined-for-a-month injured, but career-over injured. Kevin did a damn good job at putting on a tough face but Ant knew it cut deep. He just wished he’d realized how deep before it was too late. (TW) Anthony had just gotten back from winter break when he got the call: Kev was gone. Losing his dream had been too shattering, he guessed. Ant could only piece one and two together; there hadn’t been a note. Ant wasn’t sure if that was better or worse.

Ultimately, Anthony couldn’t stand college after what happened, couldn’t be in that dorm, couldn’t set foot in the diamond. He came back to Roswell— quickly moving to Intercept on his own— and returned to his old job at Astroland as a games operator. The lights, the noise, the chatter of a crowd were good ways to fill in the silence. And having to put on a happy face for a living helped to make all the “I’m fine’s” feel real. After a couple months, it was clear Ant couldn’t pull off solo-living on Astroland money alone so he picked up a part-time job at Fuel Me Up as a cashier, a similar type of front-facing, charm-the-customer type of role. The easy access to the slushie machine was a definite perk.

In general, Anthony is stuck. He’d caught between childhood and what’s supposed to be adulthood. Yes, he has his own place (albeit, it is a shack), and he pays his bills, but Ant’s comfortable with where he’s at and what he’s doing. There’s no desire for better. He’s good filling the jovial role, getting you to laugh, or convincing a group to sneak onto the roof of the town hall to watch the stars as he hands out a six-pack of Modelo’s he made sure to grab before his end-of-shift. If you look closely though, he’s rarely the first one to leave. In fact, he’s usually the last. Ant struggles a lot with the idea of leaving anyone behind, even if it is just the remnants of a party or a terrible shift at work.

Extras.

Pets: Ted (cat, 3-4 years old)

Headcanons:

Ant bought Kevin’s car after he passed. A brown 1983 AMC Eagle. They had so many memories in that car, the last thing Ant wanted was to see it sit in a garage or, worse, get sent to the junkyard. So at the funeral, he asked Mrs. Wagner and then the next day he started the near 1400 mile trip back.

 Ant was taking the trash out at Fuel Me Up when he’d heard rustling and then a meow. From behind some fallen garbage and beneath the dumpster emerged a black cat. Ant thought they looked like a Ted and the name stuck even when people told him she was a girl. Ted was Ted. And she became Ant’s number one the second he tucked her into his sweatshirt and brought her home.

Tries to befriend the racoons but has not had the same luck as with Ted.

ｒａｎｄｏｍ – 1. sora has been dancing her entire life and is classically trained. 2. despite coming from a fully korean family, she speaks next to no korean. 3. was born and raised rich and so can be quite out of touch. 4. has a massive sweet tooth. 5. has an angeleno accent; big time. 6. dyes her hair often. 7. she first started tattooing by making stick and poke tattoos for her friends but then got really into it. 8. despite the sheer amount of pink in her wardrobe, her favourite colour is orange. 9. is terrible at singing. 10. is allergic to copper.

list five things they like: shopping / exercise / baseball / mtv / fairytales list five things they dislike: mean people/ responsibility / maths / police / criticism common words / phrases that annoy them?: ’can i ask you a question’ / ‘where should we eat’ / ‘what do you think’ personality types they prefer: sora likes people who treat her like a princess, funny people, people who don't take themselves too seriously personality types they avoid: rigid, goody two shoes, overly serious. h e r s t o r y –

to say that kang sora was born with a silver spoon in her mouth would be a gross understatement. there was not a need that went unmet in her entire time growing up. her father would hang the moon for her if she asked. not only her father, but her uncle spoiled her to pieces too. and so for as far as she can remember she was always surrounded by love and adoration. despite the plethora of resources given to her, sora was never interested in making the most of the headstart life gave her. she had no interest in academics. she only enjoyed dancing, art and later cheerleading. as a student she was always more interested in being well-liked and popular than she was in learning anything. but in LA, it seemed that being pretty and rich was all she needed to be anyway.

then, seemingly out of nowhere, her life changed. the first shock came with her uncle's arrest when she was 12. the subsequent shock came when her father suddenly vanished from her life as well. her business man father had screwed over the wrong kind of people and had to go on the run. her mother, a movie star who had always been the primary breadwinner, simply became even more distant than she already was. she had always been a cold person, but the scandal caused by her father's business transgressions estranged her even more. she had always been less keen to spoil sora, wanting her to become capable and independent. and so, eventually, sora's lifestyle became something she was unwilling to support.

broke and isolated, sora decided to forge her own destiny by moving away from california. she initially followed a boy all the way out to new mexico but ended up settling and finding a new home away from home. at first it was difficult for her to make money. after all, she was too much of a princess to perform well at most workplaces. it was only when she landed a job dancing at club enigma that she finally was able to make ends meet. but what really reversed the bleak direction her life was going in was befriending a member of the vipers mc. after the initial introduction, becoming a prospect and eventually joining, sora finally felt like she had found a family away from home. sora is ride or die for the vipers mc and considers them her real family. she currently works as their tattoo artist as well.

when speaking to her, people might feel that they're speaking to someone quite shallow and immature as a result. sora idealises the idea of love and relationships, but has a hard time committing and finds fault in people easily, leading her to be the type to love em and leave em. she's a bit naive and doesn't understand innately that there's no such thing as a perfect person. despite coming across as surface-level, sora is a sunny and friendly person. she's bubbly and quick to make friends. that being said, she's far from a goody-two-shoes. as long as the dollar is green, sora is nothing if not morally flexible. it's also worth noting that sora categorically doesn't discuss her parents and so her connection to her celebrity mother wouldn't be known by anyone.

AN ANATOMY OF MOVING PARTS: THE BOY.

+ maxxie moon was born in seoul, south korea, to an underage mother whose parents were strictly against abortion. +despite the circumstances of his birth, his grandparents had been fully intending to take care of him.

+ however, with the father out of the picture and the daughter’s reputation and marriageability on the line, the underage girl begged for them to send him away.

+ after a lot of back and forth, the family settled on giving him up for adoption, deciding not to declare his status in case the orphanage refuses to take him in.

+ when he was still an infant, he was adopted by a korean-american family who were unable to have children of their own and were wanting to adopt a child.

+ honestly his parents were pretty nice, hardworking people.

+ they were just your average, middle-class american family. camping trips. his dad used to push him toward sciences and while he always had a natural knack for sciences and especially physics, he was just not into it.

+ instead, maxxie always gravitated toward music and music is definitely an area he is exceptional in. they’ve always had an ear for music and from a young age was able to repeat harmonies or play notes by ear. at age four, they could play the piano at their church as though they had been playing for years. at age five, they added the violin to his repertoire. but their dream was to be a guitarist. 

+ after a lot of begging, maxxie’s dad went out and bought him a ‘guitar’, even bragging that he bought the most expensive one there. but it was a bass (thanks dad!!!)

+ maxxie was upset about it for like 3 minutes literally but then his best friend laughed and pointed out they could now start a band.

+ so maxxie, his best friend willem, and his two other friends, benji and jude, started a band. they were called kid skeleton and went from lame boys practicing in the garage to actually being pretty impressive and well liked in the cozy confines of their school district.

+ maxxie wrote all their music, played bass and often acted as back up vocals, william was their frontman, their and guitarist with his dashing looks and amazing voice, then there was jude who was a beast on the drums and benji on the keys. it was perfect.

+ and maxxie was definitely very optimistic about their future but this flipped 180 degrees after graduating high school.

+ benji had gotten his high school sweetheart pregnant and suddenly had to focus completely on his new responsibilities as a father. he’s now working in a bank.

+ william went to law school (hardly the anti establishment position he expected him to take)

+ jude had gone out of state for college and that was that. suddenly the dreams they spent over a decade singing about had disintegrated into dust. 

+ his parents were pretty fucking livid when he broke down after that. he threw away the acceptance to MIT he received, having applied only to placate his parents and decided to fully throw himself into music.

+ it has not worked out for him, to say the least. despite all his talent, it was difficult to kickstart a career and with his parents cutting him off until he reconsidered college, he had to make ends meet, so he pursued his love for music in a different way by becoming a radio manager. (he is still incredibly bitter though)

+ so he just lives alone and drinks, and drinks and ponders the meanging(lessness) of life and rinses and repeats and wishes to wake up and be completely normal.

+ maxxie suffers from depression + substance abuse/self medicating + chronic pain / stiffness of joints + Insomnia + also being a miserable music snob

tw: hospitals, death mention, abandonment, bullying, mention of chronic illness

there are parts she still remembers. the sound of her mother’s laughter, the kindness of her smile, the way her eyes formed crescents whenever she saw her. the way the light hit her face as it poured through the kitchen window, the smell of breakfast hanging heavy in the air while she ran dishes underneath the steady stream of water. her mother: one of many misplaced memories. sometimes she wonders if she remembers anything at all - or if her reality is altogether pieced together by her father’s understanding of the way her life was. it was a troublesome thought, really, considering her father had only been in her life for the past year.

and maybe that’s why her thoughts don’t cooperate with her, no matter how hard she tries to make sense of them. to take the frayed ends of scribbled thoughts and knit them together into something seamless. can she truly understand her thoughts if she doesn’t know who she is?

before.

+ aki was born to a single-parent household in tokyo, japan. 

+ her mother was nineteen when she gave birth to her and had never gone to college. she was scouted right after school to become a performer, but was promptly discarded after she fell pregnant with an unknown man’s child. the shame being too much to bear the brunt of alone, she fell off the map and changed her name so she could raise her daughter alone quietly.

+ aki’s mother is actually from nara prefecture in japan and moved to tokyo to become a famous singer. she didn’t want to go back to nara city after everything that happened, though as she comes from a deeply religious background of shrine workers and priestesses.

+ though aki realised very early on that people didn’t look too kindly on the circumstances of her birth, she always kept a brave face in front of her mother because she didn’t want to make her think she wasn’t proud of her.

+ in school though, children were not the nicest to say the least. she was often called the mistress’s daughter, a bastard child, etc. she spent her adolescence fluctuating between total anonymity and scorn.

+ one girl stood out amongst the rest - and maybe this is because aki was admittedly rather envious of her. she was tall, beautiful, confident, etc. aki wanted nothing more than to be friends with her. + unfortunately this girl was to become her chief tormentor. it got to the point where she couldn’t stomach going to school and would actually fake or cause illness so as to ditch school. + her mother started to notice this after a while and - especially as her grades started slipping (from a’s….to…b’s….) and demanded to know what was going on.  + when aki confessed what had been going on, her mother immediately tried taking action and reported it to the school.

+ the girl, shock and horror, started to cry and said she feels that she was misunderstood by aki and that this is just her way of playing. her parents are a big deal™ so in the end aki ended up being asked to apologise and when she wouldn’t, her mother apologised and even got on her knees

+ this enraged aki because she had always wanted her mum to keep her head held up high and not bow down just bc someone more socially advantaged said to, so the next day she decided to take it into her own hands. she knew she couldn’t carry on living like a victim though. no matter what. + the next day the girls have a confrontation on the school rooftop and the exact events which transpired what happens next is something of a mystery to all parties involved. rumours circulated the school claiming that aki was the aggressor, some other people said that the other girl fell off trying to save her from falling off. + either way, and to everyone’s relief, they both survived - but at a price. + for aki, the price was six months in a coma, nearly a full year of physical therapy and three broken ribs, but that wasn’t the worst of it. this was: her memories.  + for her schoolmate, whose body had partly broken aki’s fall when she grabbed her hand and fell off as well, was now paraplegic. aki was told, when she woke up, that her mother had to pay for her medical fees - something she isn’t sure how she managed considering their financial situation.

+ either way, when she woke up, it was to a world without her mother and a lack of clarity surrounding the woman her heart longed to see or the memories of their life together. + there were whisperings amongst the nurses that her mother had abandoned her, that she could no longer take care of such a problematic child, nor foot the steep medical bills her hospital stay was racking up. + others even said that she must died, somewhere, and were it not for the fact she couldn’t move properly when she first woke, that alone would have gotten her out of bed.  + in her place was a man she had never seen before, who smiled apologetically and introduced himself as her father as soon as he ended the call. + and that was the end of her former life.

after.

+ her father, she later found out, was a record producer - and that was how he and her mother had met. he was still unmarried, despite his good looks and considerable wealth. his success was seemingly unstoppable, too, and he had been living outside japan for the past few years. in america - the big leagues, he said. after she had been cleared to leave the hospital, he whisked her away from japan and to his second home in new mexico. it was far away from the glitz, glam and pressures of los angeles, he’d said, and was a much better place for a young girl like her. although he spent most of his time out of state, she wasn’t all alone in their new home in new mexico. she had her bunnies, too.  + her personality is pretty soft in general, she’s tenderhearted and very loyal to her friends. she’s just a fun-loving, hyper, quirky person. she’s very empathic so exceedingly mean people are not usually her vibe. she is very hypersensitive and can become emotional rather quickly. though she is soft on the inside, she is tough on the outside and can actually pack a mean punch for her size. although her memory is foggy, she remembers enough to know she was always picked on for being small, weak and too nice, so she actively takes kickboxing and self-defence. + she likes video games, music (metal, hardcore, rock), anime, dungeons and dragons, comic books, etc.

+ she unfortunately deals with a few ailments, being nonspecific to be mindful of triggers, but basically a heart arrhythmia disorder, and anemia.

[left2rust]

BASICS FULL NAME: Ruston "Rusty" Hansen NICKNAME / GOES BY : He HATES the name Ruston and has gone by Rusty since the age of five. He doesn't have many other nicknames of note that he goes by.  FACECLAIM: Felix Mallard GENDER & PRONOUNS: Cis man, he/him pronouns AGE & BIRTHDAY: 24 and his birthday is August 19th TIME IN INTERCEPT: Since November of 1996 OCCUPATION: Cashier at Blockbuster & cook at Pizza Planet

HISTORY trigger warnings: absent parents, gambling, bullying, severe acne

Rusty grew up in Las Vegas, Nevada and was raised by his single mother. His father was infrequently in his life usually showing up at random or leaving some half-assed gift for Rusty on his birthday or Christmas. When Rusty was around the age of ten his father stopped coming around for good and he hasn't seen the man since.

There isn't much to say about Rusty's childhood. His mother worked hard to give Rusty all that she could and while his clothes were usually hand-me-downs from his cousins and there wasn't many presents for him at Christmas he didn't mind. In fact, he kind of liked being a latchkey kid and having the freedom to do as he pleased while his mother worked. Not that he got up to many hijinks and often used his free time to stay up late and watch horror movies his mother would disapprove of.

Rusty had never been a particularly outgoing kid but when he got into middle school that changed for the worst. Once puberty hit Rusty began to develop cystic acne that only seemed to get worse the older he became. He instantly got coined the nickname of "pizza face" and his social status only began to plummet due to his appearance. Despite trying everything under the sun to clear up his skin it never seemed to do much and he wasn't able to escape the nickname while in school. He found a kinship with the fellow social outcasts in school and the freaks and geeks became his best friends and by nature Rusty began to lean into his nerdier hobbies. Rusty was more than ready to leave high school behind forever but he didn't have big plans for his future. He couldn't afford college not that he wanted to go and he had no plans to leave Las Vegas.

At the age of 19 he found himself on Accutane for the first time and the drug was a miracle for Rusty and actually cleared his skin up for the first time in his life. He no longer was an ugly duckling and he was finally getting attention from the opposite sex for the first time in his life. His self worth improved immensely now that he no longer was a "pizza face".

Rusty made up for lost time now that he possessed a confidence he'd never had before. Rusty got into a series of flings and short lived relationships and he found himself getting invited to parties and events and forming a social circle that didn't consist solely of eating pizza and campaigns of D&D.

Living in Las Vegas and finally becoming of age led to Rusty developing a gambling addiction. It'd started small just a couple of bets here and there but swiftly became a problem for the man. Entire paychecks were going towards Poker and before he knew it he was put out on the curb having gambled away his rent money and left Rusty with nowhere to live.

Instead of crashing on his mother's couch and continuing to gamble away his life, Rusty took the eviction as his sign to get out of the city and find a new start somewhere that wasn't littered with temptation. He went as far as his car would take him and wound up in Intercept, NM where he made roots and started his new life a little over a year ago.

PERSONALITY

Towards strangers: He doesn't usually go out of his way to interact with people he doesn't know though he's making more of an effort there since he is new to town and everyone is a stranger to him. He'll speak when spoken to and can hold a conversation but doesn't actively seek them out. Towards friends: Rusty has a habit of being somewhat of a flakey friend. Unless the activity that is offered really intrigues him he's likely to decline and also isn't above simply not showing up if something better comes along. Most of his friends know this about him and have found it's better to just show up at his place unannounced if they really want to see him or inviting him last minute when it's assumed he's got nothing better to do. He's good for a good time but not one you'd want to have a real heart to heart with. Towards coworkers: Similarly to his friends Rusty is unreliable at work. While he's usually chummy with his coworkers you have to be weary of asking Rusty to cover a shift. While he's perpetually in need of money he'll often agree to covering someone and either bails out on the offer at the last minute or forgets he's filling in which often leads to both Rusty and his coworker getting in trouble. Towards love interests: Rusty is still getting used to the fact girls are into him. Without having practice in high school he still fumbles plenty of women despite him being considered good looking to most. While he's usually able to flirt and charm a girl things have a habit of fizzling out once his partner tries to make the relationship less superficial. He's scared of commitment and usually once the L word starts getting thrown around he ends up cutting things off. He is a lover boy though and almost immediately after a break up he's back in the dating pool.

born in chile to a large, loving family, santiago is the oldest of six. esmerelda, his mother, is and always was a force to be reckoned with. she was always the head of the house, despite never working outside it once she had her children. you can be sure she kept everyone in line, including santiago’s father, alberto up until he passed away after santiago was an adult. she never took any crap from anyone while still making time to love and nurture her entire family. if you asked santiago, it was her he admired most and tried to take after but there is far too much of his padre in him to be ignored. alberto was an ultra survivalist, skills he passed onto his children but it was clear that santiago proved to be the most interested, soaking up every piece of knowledge his father would offer him. self-reliance, resourcefulness, and being able to read your surroundings no matter where you were, was the biggest things he got from his father. it would be these skills that made him into a master tracker which was later sharpened to near perfection in the chilean army and us army special forces after that. santiago is a healthy amount of both of his parents with a mix of his own quirks and values. 

needless to say, his childhood was a good one. there was expectations as any family has but they never seemed unreasonable for santiago to meet and mistakes were treated as learning opportunities to improve on, as they should be. his familia was the light in his life in so many ways. growing up and then every time he came home on leave when he joined the military. he was constantly surrounded by siblings, cousins, aunties, uncles, grandparents, and of course any found family that someone adopted in. community was made to be of upmost importance next to family and school. by the time santiago graduated and joined the chilean military, he was already a well-rounded young man. though, he wouldn’t lie and say he didn’t let loose in his free time once he was out in the world, something no one could ever quite train out of him. 

after a few years with the chilean military, he was uniquely recruited by the united states military, something he accepted as a promising opportunity. while going through their training he was fast tracked through the citizenship process ( though he holds dual citizenship between the countries, it was still a long process even sped up ). once he held that status they were able to recruit him into special forces where he trained heavily in psyops and intelligence. it was necessary for him to be able to help read people well and collect data while they helped secure peace around the world, particularly belize in his case (though he was called out from his station when needed). he helped create infrastructure, neutralize threats before they started, suggested better ways to preserve culture, and streamlined those who needed the most help to the right resources. why belize became so significant in santi’s life had little to do with his career and more to do with an un giro in the form of a scottish officer by the name of lindsay o'halloran.

they met in some random beach bar, santiago already tipsy from a few tropical drinks, spotted the handsome devil and somehow convinced him to come home with him by the end of the night. it was the start to a long lasting and rich relationship that spanned several years. they’d survived long distance deployments, unresolved trauma, and domestic cohabitation, he even managed to win over the most important people in santiago’s life, his family. not that he ever doubted he would, but even santi could admit his family could be a lot to those outside of it. little did he know, they would soon be a little family of their own. 

it was the early eighties when lindsay got the call from his american cousins that his sister and her child had gone missing. there was no question in lindsay’s mind that he needed to get to new mexico and there was no question in santiago’s that he would be right behind him. santiago was able to be transferred to new mexico and finish out his time with the military and retire. they were able to purchase and renovate a bed and breakfast when there was still hope for intercept as a tourist destination, and help maisie grow up in a somewhat normal loving environment ( at least the best they could after all they’d been through ). santiago was even blessed to have his family start to join him there and he selfishly hopes he can get the rest of them to come, though he’s not sure that intercept will be the town for them much longer.

TRIGGER WARNING : religious trauma, abuse

dixie has always had a personality far too big for the small town she was born in over in alabama. funny where she would end up, though astroland always made intercept seem a lot bigger than it is. she was one of several children born to a televangelist preacher and homemaker mother. dixie felt like her and her siblings all had different experiences in that house growing up. sure, some were shared but expectations were divided differently. especially when daddy was always way too controlling with her and her brothers were allowed to do whatever they wanted. it was all about appearances and outdated gender roles and appearing to be the perfect southern christian family at all times, even though dixie knew damn well the majority of her father’s flock didn’t practice what he preached behind the pulpit every sunday.

she grew up in a place where everyone knew your name and if you wanted your business to be your own, you kept your mouth shut and moved on. there were plenty of skeletons in the clary family closet. at first, though you wouldn’t believe it if you met her today, dixie was the quiet one in the family. took her almost two years to say her first word and she’d let her siblings do the talking for her, often following close behind one of her older brothers. mama had the perfect solution to help bring her out of her shell, one that benefited everyone. she started putting little dixie in beauty pageants long before daddy could have a chance to say no. by the time she was six years old she already had thirty-one crowns and twenty-nine trophies. some said mama was so hard on her because she was living the life she couldn’t through her. dixie wasn’t sure she agreed with that, she liked being in pageants and all the attention she got from them. mama was just trying to get her to live up to her full potential.

once dixie got older, she started to take a cut out of her pageant winnings whether her parents wanted her to or not. she saved all the pennies she could for the future. her dream was set on being on the big screen and performing for the whole world to see. which is exactly why when she was so willing to give into the guy at the mall who said he could help her get a promising modeling career. he had a portfolio of headshots, he had to be the real deal, right? well, she sure thought he was and she gave him all the money she had, packed a bag, and left with him in the middle of the night. she changed her last name from clary to duvall and at sixteen years old, left her home behind to head to los angeles to start her career. or so she thought.

intercept was only meant to be a stop. the man she’d come there with, jason, supposedly knew some people there and needed to drop some stuff there. then one day turned into another, then a month went by, he made her get a job to help pay for their motel room and before she knew it they’d been there a year and she wasn’t any closer to achieving her dreams. but when dixie questioned him, he started to get controlling and when she went against him he thought he could put his filthy hands on her. little did he know dixie had made friends of her own in intercept and she’s not quite sure what zairo silva did to jason, all she knows is she went to zairo with one black-eye in tears and jason hasn’t been seen since.

now dixie is stuck in this one horse town, dancing at the club and working at astroland still trying to find a way to book modeling jobs and work her way to los angeles to jump start her career. but money is hard to get in intercept and the jobs just aren’t easy to find. the most she’s gotten is promotional content and a few commercials. at this point she’s looking for anyway to achieve her dreams while living the best life she can with her friends and the family she’s found in new mexico.

TRIGGER WARNING : parental death, childbirth

mark and sylvia fisher were excited to start a family together when sylvia sprung the news of her being pregnant on her unsuspecting husband. his initial shock was just one of many surprises that would surround the entrance of their boys into the world. most of them good news, until the last when he found out he would be raising jonah and judah on his own. though wildly underprepared, that didn’t stop mark from raising his boys to the best of his ability. his sister was a big part of that, having children of her own already, she watched them while he worked as a firefighter in roswell and occasionally volunteered to help in intercept if they needed it and was around.

jonah was born seven and a half minutes before judah, though he’s never felt like the older brother. he was certainly not as outgoing and definitely not as smart. the one resounding ability he had was a massive input of wild ideas and half-developed plans that judah would complete, fine tune, and run with. he was his best friend growing up and honestly, still is. sure, they didn’t always see eye to eye on everything, but they could normally find some kind of compromise or worked it out through a good scuffle. their father instilled the same core values in both of them: hard work, community, loyalty, and helping those who can’t help themselves. with these values they were able to finish school mostly unscathed and without burning the place down, turning into somewhat suitable adults with blind ambition that ended up working out for them in the long run.

there was no sense in jonah wasting time with college, he barely made it through high school. there was no way he was cut out for firefighting either, though he is a part of the volunteer squad in intercep. for as long as he can remember, jonah thought in pictures, saw the world as his canvas and he wanted to fill the world with not only his art but warn them of the dangers that lurk all around them. it’s one of things that prompted him to save his money as a teenager and purchase a tattoo machine. he learned how to tattoo through watching other, long time skilled artists in the craft and through a lot of trial and error. there was hope that someday he’d be able to buy a shop or turn his uncle’s shop into a tattoo parlor and auto shop, but the vipers put an end to that dream.

without a solid plan for the future, jonah lives in his late uncle’s old house with his brother judah. he started a zine that he makes and distributes throughout new mexico which covers the latest theories other paranormal and government conspiracy enthusiasts have contributed, including himself, monthly. an effort he makes to spread his art but also organize against ‘big brother’ before it’s too late. he also makes a side income by offering tattoos out of his basement, though not technically legal, they’ve made the area sanitary and suitable for any client trusting enough to give him a chance. jonah’s managed to get quite good at it and has quite the portfolio of polaroids to prove it. otherwise, you can find him at astroland airbrushing cool designs on t-shirts to sell to park goers and customizing them with their name for a few bucks extra.
