↘ tenant file loading … meet BENJAMIN , WILLIAM ! according to their application to move in , he resembles thomas doherty closely and is a 24 year old cismale who first rented their apartment in the year of 2017 . if what neighbors are saying is true , they appear to struggle with being absent minded , though excel at being determined , so maybe that's why they became a motocross competitor . i usually see them around speeding on his motorcycle !
originally from australia, moving to the complex in 2017 to pursue his career better! his name took off in the us because of the xgames and motocross stuff so he moved to the betterment of his financials and career advancement! but, he loves to surf and dive, but knew that his main career would focus on bikes and not the others!
based on the show, his personality is sweet, caring, and definitely thoughtful despite his nonchalant absent minded attitude at times! he’s very curious and wont give up till he knows the facts behind whatever he’s snooping about (he’s not that nosy tho, don't worry). can be secretive and keep his word when he says he wont tell people!
his birthed wasn't listed, so i’m making his birthday june 16th! he’s a gemini!! he’s athletic, enthusiastic, easily bored/wants something to do with his hands always, intuitive and intelligent! can be fairly childish at times, though. quick-tempered and inconsistent at times too!
❝ friends don’t lie . ❞ round two , m’lovelies --- this time , it’s jane hopper ! i forgot to put it on rory’s intro , but chuck either of my intros a like and i’ll hop on over to your dm’s for plots and all that fun stuff !
↘ tenant file loading … meet HOPPER , JANE ( ELEVEN ) ! according to their application to move in , she resembles maia mitchell closely and is a 23 year old cis female who first rented their apartment in the year of 2017 . if what neighbors are saying is true , they appear to struggle with being sequestered , though excel at being staunch , so maybe that’s why they became a ballet instructor . i usually see them around collecting an eclectic selection of ‘80s - inspired scrunchies !
early years are incredibly tough for eleven , or jane ( as she comes to call herself after a heartbreaking but necessary move ) . she won’t talk about much of it , will outright refuse to go into anything that happened to her before she turned sixteen . the loss of a father will do that to you --- hopper was an adopted father and the best person she’s ever known , a lifeline that proved necessary after the trauma of her childhood . losing him was something that cut straight to the bone , something that burnt an irreparable hole into the very fabric of her being . it’s shortly after that particular loss that she hitches her wagon to the byers’ ( invitation offered by joyce , of course ) and leaves her hometown of hawkins to stretch her legs in new york . the timing just seems right --- they’re leaving anyway ( jonathan’s acceptance to nyu couldn’t have come at a better time ) , she needed to break away from a town that held nothing but bad memories and trauma ; and the thing is , despite the burning desire to leave it behind , it’s a hard move . it means saying goodbye to the only group of friends she’s ever known , leaving someone she loves ( and she still carries mike’s photo in her wallet , all scrawny and prepubescent and cut out of a fucking yearbook ) . it means leaving her best friends , the only family she’s ever known , and it stings like hell .
new york is enormous , almost too big --- it’s terrifying for a fourteen - year - old already unsure of her own identity . she aches for home , to run to the comfort of everything she’s ever known but joyce makes something special out of the byers’ apartment . she and will share a bedroom , bunk beds found on craigslist ( and it’s the best thing in the world / she’ll catch will sniffling in the middle of the night , wrap tight arms around him , let him cry with the knowledge that tomorrow night he’ll return the favour ) . jonathan comes home on weekends , sleeps on the couch and brings tales of classes . it’s a fully - formed ecosystem , comfortable in the way they all have their roles ; jane ( now formally known as jane joyce hopper , but still called el between family and friends ) learns to cook and studies from home , gets herself up to speed so that she can enrol in high school when she turns fifteen . will goes to school , teaches the family new board games and card games for the long evenings when the electricity goes out . joyce works two jobs , pinched around the eyes but always with a warm heart and a kind word . they work it out , learn to live in a new world that seems cold and aloof ; they make their dingy little apartment home , and it’s wonderful .
life progresses , and slowly the broken shards that exist within jane’s chest begin to heal . she reads hopper’s letter like a religion , texts her friends regularly , has long phone calls with the party , cries over it but laughs too , the deep kind of belly laugh she hasn’t known for a while . she learns to heal --- takes up ballet and yoga , learns to knit . her knitting is unsuccessful but the dancing and the yoga take off ; she channels the hurt and the trauma and the pain into movement , and she develops into a beautiful dancer . climbs the ranks at her local company , en pointe before she knows it , dancing in her first show as a lead dancer before she’s eighteen . the party makes it to new york for it , as do her family ; she cries on stage , but it’s happiness that overwhelms her .
she finally , finally moves away from home at twenty - one . she packs her little life , all the wrecked and bloody pointe shoes and the records and the thumbed comics , into a few boxes that fit in the back of the car she bought with the money earned from a shitty job . her new apartment isn’t far from the family home , but closer to her studio ( she teaches now / alternates between teaching yoga and ballet , loves both with her whole heart ) . she’s got a tendency to shut herself in , to isolate herself but she’s doing her best to open her heart , to work through the residual hurt she still feels . she’s doing the best she can , and that’s all she can do .
she also likes cats (2019) dir. tom hooper so like ........... take that as you will
❝ my books look sad . can books look sad ? ❞ good mornin’ , evenin’ , or whatever it may be for you , folks ! my name’s angel , i literally dragged myself off of animal crossing : new horizons to write this , & i don’t have much else interesting to say , tbh ! i’ll be writing my two babi angels , rory gilmore and jane hopper / eleven , and honestly i can’t believe i found this angelic lil group just as i was about to start yet another gilmore girls rewatch ! anywhom , el’s intro will be up shortly , but for the time being --- may i pls present , the illustrious ms . gilmore !
↘ tenant file loading … meet GILMORE , RORY ! according to their application to move in , she resembles natalia dyer closely and is a 22 year old cis female who first rented their apartment in the year of 2019 . if what neighbors are saying is true , they appear to struggle with being persnickety , though excel at being assiduous , so maybe that’s why they became a journalism student . i usually see them around poring over a growing stack of textbooks with a pencil tucked behind her ear !
lorelai leigh gilmore , affectionaly nicknamed rory at an extremely young age , grows up in a world that almost doesn’t seem real --- full of books and music and fun and laughter , so much that it leaves the belly aching and the eyes glazed with tears of sheer mirth ! it’s all spearheaded by a rambunctious , loving mother who becomes a best friend first and a mother second , indulgent to a fault , protective and wonderful and joyous ! her early years are characterised by a rotating cast of eclectic characters that dote on her , a found family of townsfolk --- and it’s true , it does take a village to raise a child . there is a glaring absence in all of this , namely any familial connections outside of her mother ; father , christopher , is a lackadaisal figure who darts in and out at the blink of an eye , leaves infrequent voicemails and doesn’t reply to letters . grandparents are visited at holidays , and unwillingly at that . there’s an undeniable tension , two warring sects of the same family .
education plays a major role in the unfolding diagram of her life --- always the brightest , always with her nose stuck in a book ; hands in homework days early , always answers teacher’s questions . she’s star’s hollow’s brightest pupil , until the letter arrives --- chilton has a place and a tartan skirt with her name on it . the switch is sudden , resisted at first ( oh , there’s nothing like the sweet scent of young love to throw a spanner in the works ) and it comes at a cost --- friday nights are now to be spent at the grandparents’ house in hartford , a weekly dinner used as a bargaining chip . it’s a small price to pay for a dream school , rory thinks .
except that the dream doesn’t seem quite as pleasant when the first week rolls around and there’s already targets on her back , nicknames thrown and enemies made before she even has a chance to open her mouth . it’s a harsh adjustment ( includes getting hit by a deer , no less ) and it’s painful but slowly , surely she feels her way around . it might be at the rate of treacle but friendships are begrudgingly developed ( paris geller proves a challenge but it all pays off ) and by the time she graduates , she’s valedictorian . well - respected , loved and admired ; set for harvard , despite applications to other universities --- it’s harvard all the way , baby .
it’s always been harvard , for as long as she can remember . college merchandise has crowded a corkboard for years , she collects their pamphlets religiously ; richard isn’t pleased by the prospect , pushes her continuously towards yale , but it’s harvard . always was going to be harvard , until it isn’t anymore .
when acceptance letters arrive , there isn’t an ivy league that hasn’t practically begged her to go . she’s drawn up lists ( pros and cons for just about all of them ) , and she’s moments away from saying yes before something , something changes her mind ; at the eleventh hour , rory throws caution to the wind and accepts an offer from columbia . naturally , lorelai’s gobsmacked ( speechless , for once in a garrulous lifetime ) but supportive . a small car ( a birthday present from the grandparents , insistent that she have something nice to drive ) is slowly filled and before long , she’s trundling her way towards new york city , towards the promise of something new and glittering and exciting .
she lives on campus for a while , gets the university feel --- ends up with a truly questionable selection of roommates , travels back and forth , falls in love with university and learning all over again . she learns to be on her own , learns that she doesn’t mind it but there’s something to be said for movie nights on the well - worn gilmore couch , to pulling up at the family home with a big grin and two cups of luke’s world - famous brew in hand .
late last year , she decides that on - campus living has run its course , and applies for her own apartment . the move is quick , and it’s wonderful --- she slowly fills it with her records , her neverending collection of books , of the things she treasures the most . she makes it her own space like nothing else , and before long the whole place is damn - near crowded with her collections of belongings . it feels warm , inviting , lived - in ; lorelai loves it when she comes to visit . once again , she’s learning how to navigate the world --- last year of university is drawing to an inevitable close , and the world is a reckless place .
hiya! i’m violet n i’m playing both legend serena van der woodsen n lil baby william benjamin (i will separately post his intro!)
↘ tenant file loading … meet VAN DER WOODSEN , SERENA ! according to their application to move in , she resembles madison beer closely and is a 23 year old cisfemale who first rented their apartment in the year of 2020 . if what neighbors are saying is true , they appear to struggle with being a wild child , though excel at being charming , so maybe that's why they became an instagram influencer . i usually see them around taking instagram pictures !
so, basically she comes from a wealthy family who she’s had problems with in her past aka why she lives in the complex! they didn't cut her off or anything, but she wanted her own freedom so she bounced from under their roof!
she went to college, for a little, but ended up dropping out once her instagram influencing took off around 2018! she was in school for public relations, so she’s sort of on the same track! she has roughly 3.2 million followers on instagram! she doesn't have the picture perfect reputation thanks to her family being low-key famous around new york so she is used to paparazzi photos, etc.
she’s basically has serena’s personality of being a fun-loving, sassy (sometimes) little thing! very trusting, charming, in the lead of things but has commitment issues because of her mom! she can be somewhat irresponsible!
she was born july 14th, so she’s a cancer! so she’s very loyal but can be resentful, protective, moody, emotional and loving!
hey everyone!! i’m avi, 25, and live in los angeles (pst) BUT i’m quarantining in the est timezone currently. the only other thing you need to know is that i am complete and utter trash for mainly how i met your mother, but also 90s/2000s romcoms and sitcoms so this rp is a blessing. i would love to be friends n plot with all of you so just give this lil blurb a like if you want me to slide into your dms!
↘ tenant file loading … meet MOSBY , TED ! according to their application to move in , he resembles matthew daddario closely and is a 27 year old cismale who first rented their apartment in the year of 2017 . if what neighbors are saying is true , they appear to struggle with being pretentious , though excel at being devoted , so maybe that’s why they became an architect . i usually see them around giving architecture ‘fun facts’ to random passerbys !
theodore ‘ted’ (evelyn, if ya nasty) mosby is the definition of a hopeless romantic. from his life ambitions to the way he sees the world, it’s all in greater pursuit of one thing - beauty.
born in cleveland, ohio, ted would tell you that the renaissance of his life didn’t truly happen until he started his freshman year at wesleyan university. it was there that he not only met two of his best friends, but also developed his love of architecture.
after getting his degree, ted and his two best friends moved to chicago, il and got an apartment together. he quickly found a job in an architecture firm downtown and although his boss is certifiably insane (i’m thinking hammond druthers if you watch the show!!) it’s steady work while he gains the confidence + connections to start his own firm.
most of the time, you can find ted in the bar after work, shooting the shit and drinking with his close friends - telling them all about the crazy thing his boss did that day, or what girl he’s currently calling ‘the future mrs. ted mosby.’
as for his personality, ted prides himself on his intelligence. he loves architecture, books, poetry, and foreign films - and he can get a little bit pretentious and judgmental of those who can’t hold an ‘intelligent conversation’ with him. (luckily his bffs keep him grounded most of the time) he’s also extremely loyal - almost to a fault. once he loves you, he loves you for life and he’ll do anything for you. and that doesn’t just stop at people - he’s been using the same brand of shampoo for years, and refuses to buy anything else. honestly, the poster-child of a taurus.
himym lore is.... so much... but i’m starting ted off relatively early in the series so he’s mostly a blank slate in regards to connections!! hmu if u have any idea or like this if u want me to slide into yo dms <3
