(﹙˓ 🎧 ˒﹚) whoa, did you just hear that voice? it's so recognizable that i have no doubt it's cole kineo. i don't really know much about them, but i heard they're a twenty four year old sports management major in their fourth of study. people say that they're layered and authentic, but rumor has it that they're actually sarcastic and shy, so i guess we'll never know the truth unless you live with them in hudson house. if you ask me, i think i'd describe them as the troy bolton, but their spotify wrapped should say more about them, in which moving too fast by jeremy jordan, feeling this by blink-182, and writing’s on the wall by role model are amongst their most played. but whatever, i wish them luck on their endeavors in new directions, football and titans hockey. i don't know how they have time for all of that, but i can't wait to see how this new school year treats them!

BASICS,
name: cole francis kineo
age: twenty-four
height: 5'8”
hair color: dark brown
eye color: green eyes
dream occupation: sports agent
education: fourth year musical sports management major
cole has never been the loudest person in the room. adopted into a family built on love, loyalty has become one of the most important parts of who he is. beneath his sarcastic humor and quiet nature is someone thoughtful, genuine, and fiercely devoted to the people he cares about. while others often see confidence, cole spends much of his time doubting himself and wondering if he’s really as capable as everyone seems to think.
a fourth-year sports management major with dreams of becoming a sports agent, sports have always been where cole feels most at home. football, hockey, you name it he’s probably played it. joining new directions wasn’t something he ever expected to do, but after a conversation with one of its members about his love of music, he decided to take a chance. even now, cole struggles to believe the praise he gets for his voice, usually brushing off compliments as people being nice. still, he keeps showing up, slowly learning that maybe believing in himself is the hardest challenge he’s faced yet.

fandom: the originals
faceclaim: madison davenport (verse specific alt fc: troian bellisario)
C A N O N D I V E R G E N C I E S :
canon up until S05E06 of the originals. after hayle(y)'s death, hope does not go back to the salvatore school and instead stays in new orleans with her family. marcel homeschools her as much as possible, considering klaus and rebekah can't come near her and she wants nothing to do with elijah.
even though klaus cannot come near her, he changes how much he stays in contact with her and the two of them grow extremely close very quickly, somewhat resolving hope's issues with his previous absence in her life. she clings to klaus after losing her other parent.
like in canon, klaus and hope still end up going near each other and causing issues. after regaining his memories, elijah's guilt over hayle(y)'s death consumes him, and when klaus tells him of his plan to take in the entirety of the hollow, elijah intervenes and convinces freya to give it to him instead.
klaus is still the one to kill elijah, in the same way as in canon. i have issues with how the white oak was magically there the entire time after the entire last half of season 3 was spent fighting over "the last of the white oak" so the stake was not hidden by klaus decades ago, it was magically made from the remaining fragments of white oak that could be found around the city.
another thing i'm addressing that season 5 did not is elijah's sireline. because he was never disconnected from them, 1/3 of all remaining vampires on earth died.
hope does not find out that elijah did this for klaus until after it's done. she has unresolved emotions about it, and refuses to talk about it when it's brought up.
hope becomes even more attached to klaus, and because the hollow is now gone, she is by his side at almost all times. anything that takes his attention/interest away from her is seen as a threat. she completely falls into the daddy's girl trope, very quickly.
freya teaches her magic, klaus teaches her everything else. like in canon/legacies, hope has issues containing her magic and it is very heavily tied into her emotional state. if she gets too upset, the entire city risks experiencing a blackout if she is not wearing her bracelet.
3 years post series (when she is 21) hope forgets to take her magic-dampening bracelet off when she is trying to track someone she thinks is trying to hurt klaus. it ends up being aurora, and hope realizes she isn't powerful enough to protect herself too late. aurora kills her, and she turns.
these details are slightly different for my klaus's family business verse, as hope is not klaus's only child there:
hayle is not dead, elijah is not dead, klaus is not dead. we do what we want. because of this, hope still attends the salvatore school and goes to college there.
because she is considered one of klaus's firstborn children (via dahlia's firstborn curse resetting each millennia), hope is still far more powerful and uncontrollable than the rest of her siblings, and thus feels alone because of it.
she is also the only one of her siblings that does not have a direct sibling, as she was hayle's only child. this also contributes to her feeling alone.
because she is one of klaus's firstborns under dahlia's curse, she has a doppelganger who was born roughly two years after her; her name is jackie kenner-west. she is jackson's child, and because of this, hope considers jackie her sister.
hope's relationship with klaus is completely different in this verse as opposed to her canon/main verse. she is far more attached to hayle than she is klaus.

disposition.(+) pragmatic, level-headed, hardworking. (-) self-preserving, often comes off as disinterested or uncaring, or eccentric and off-putting.
main setting. the country of li, a fictionalized version of imperial china.
verse i / pre-canon. born in the red light district as the daughter of a courtesan, maomao is raised by the workers of her mother's house, verdigris, and eventually by the apothecary luomen, a man she comes to see as her own father. rather than become a courtesan herself, she chooses to apprentice under his tutelage, until she is kidnapped and sent to work in the imperial palace's inner court.
verse ii / canon, main verse. originally a maidservant of no particular note, her involvement in an incident targeting the emperor's children brings her to the notice of the inner court's higher-ups, leading her to enter consort gyokuyou's service. though she outwardly refuses to seek out any kind of trouble, her perceptiveness and knowledge of medicine lead her to unravel a series of mysteries in the inner court, some much bigger than herself.
alternate universe / wuxia & xianxia. wherein mao mao's backstory is largely the same, but can be tailored to see her become a servant within a great sect. to be expanded upon.
