ooc | Imogen & Alice

Kate!!! <3

Okay, so I’m just gonna apologize in advance for Imogen b/c she’s not a huge fan of Alice’s haha. I mean, I think part of her really likes Alice, but most of her doesn’t b/c she’s just so incredibly!!! jealous!!!! of her and she’s also scared that she’s going to end up losing Milo completely to Alice. I think she looks at Alice and sees someone who has her life together and who is beautiful and kind and she just can’t compete with that??? Why would Milo choose Imogen when he could have Alice? 

And she doesn’t wanna see him w/ someone else ~romantically but she certainly doesn’t wanna lose him as a friend, too, and I think she’s also afraid of that, if Milo x Alice became a thing, so yeah ... 

I feel like she just acts super rude to Alice and ngl it is super frustrating that Alice lives right across the street from where Imogen lives! And omg if Alice ever came to the gift shop looking for Milo, Imogen would hate that so much haha.

Go Away | Alice & Gin

The one perk that Gin had found that had come from quitting her job with the GMFT was that she rarely saw Alice Lark anymore. Of course, it meant that she didn’t see Milo nearly as often either (that was partly her fault, as she tended to avoid him because of Alice). Still, Alice was more easily evaded these days and it made it easy to pretend that Alice didn’t exist at all. Bingley was small, but Gin could manage to go days (if not weeks) without seeing her stupid face. 

Today, Gin decided to stop by Fulton’s Outdoor Emporium. Truth be told, she was in the mood for some company and since her only friend (Milo) wasn’t exactly an appealing option, she decided to say hello to Warner. 

They weren’t exactly close anymore, given the break-up, but it had ended on good terms and she could always trust Warner to be up for a friendly chat, if she wanted one. He was always kind to her (sometimes too kind - it was part of the reason she’d had to break up with him). But today she was weirdly in the mood for one of his awkward conversations. 

She was surprised (although should she really have been?) to see Alice Lark, instead of Warner Fulton. “God, is there a reason you are here?” 

Her eyes flicked to the nametag pinned to her sweater to where Alice was sitting, behind the counter. Was she actually working here now? 

Of fucking course she was. 

God, she’d forgotten how it was so obvious that Warner was in love with her, too. And he’d gone and given her a job (after he had said to Gin that she could come to him about openings in a few months if she was still out of a job. Apparently, Alice was hirable on the spot). 

“So when are you planning to move back to Idaho or Indiana or wherever the fuck you came from?” Gin asked, crossing her arms. She’d been wanting to drive Alice out of town since she got here, but she realized then that Alice just might be the one to drive Gin away.

The thought made her sick.

ooc | Philip & Gin

Hello!!! So Philip is interested in Gin and Gin is ... less than interested in him HA! So Imogen is honestly a disaster (she definitely has some Ron Swanson vibes tbh??? Like she pretends she hates everyone but she really cares a lot but she shows you she cares by calling you the wrong name????). That being said, she does probably find any attention Philip is giving her annoying but she also doesn’t dislike him as much as she acts like she does??? She just has a “I have everyone except Milo on occasion” reputation to uphold smh

Still Friends(?) | Milo & Gin

With Milo wrapped in Alice Lark, Gin found that Bingley had lost its charm. 

To be honest, the only thing that was keeping her here anymore was her mom. She wouldn’t have admitted it if you had asked her, but Milo had made life in this small town exciting (so much so, she forgot how lame Bingley could be). Milo was still her best friend (he always would be, whether he liked it or not) but things had been strained lately between them. 

Milo’s infatuation with Alice Lark had driven a wedge (one that Gin was beginning to think was ireservsable). If Milo wasn’t with Alice he was talking about her. It was disgusting (and so goddamn annoying). It made Gin want to throw something at his head (sometimes she did). Gin was often irritable and sarcastic, so her jealous behavior didn’t strike Milo as odd (plus he was an idiot who wouldn’t have noticed how Gin felt about him, even if she had chucked everything she owned at his head whenever he mentioned Alice).

There was only so much of the Alice-obsessed Milo that Gin could take and since the GMFT had had its layoffs, she and Milo hadn’t seen that much of each other. You once rarely saw one without the other, but now Gin found herself needing space and they could go days (sometimes more than a week) without seeing each other. 

Today she’d been sitting outside on the front steps of her apartment building, smoking a cigarette, when she saw him walk up the street towards her. She was somewhat surprised to see that he came alone. Had he been with Alice, she might have gone inside before he could speak to her, but the truth was, was that she missed him, so she stayed planted right where she was. 

“Where’s Alice?” Gin asked, suspiciously, putting out her cigarette. Maybe there’s trouble in paradise, she found herself hoping.

ooc | Imogen & Hannah

jenn, i feel like these two would be great friends or hate each other and I can’t???? decide which one???

[imogenvt]

ooc | Imogen & Lydia

Hey! So Lydia and Milo are friends, yeah? Gin’s bffs with him and they both live and work together haha, so I feel like these two probably run into each other now and again? So ... Gin is honestly just a mess and I wanna apologize for her, but I feel like she wouldn’t really like lydia mainly b/c she does get a little jealous when milo hangs out with other people and she’d find it honestly even more offensive if milo tried to get lydia to hang out with both of them???? so I feel like she’s probably kind of mean to her??? (altho it might be hard for lydia to tell that she doesn’t like her b/c gin is honestly mean to people she does like ... she’s just meaner to those she doesn’t?????)

A Mess™

named for her paternal grandmother 

hates her name (and her namesake) and will respond to gin or pierce 

grew up w/ super wealthy parents and never wanted for a thing 

(except attention and an actual relationship w/ her dad) 

hated when he’d go back to the city during the week for work and hated it even more when he’d spend the weekends w/ his family on his phone

her dad used to be her favorite person in the world until she grew up and realized what an asshole he was 

he had been having lots of affairs w/ other women

kinda was ????? and angry at her mom for awhile when she wouldn’t leave him 

not on great terms with her dad now but she’s grown closer w/ her mom

she’s actually super protective of her mom who she realizes did her best with a difficult situation

still wishes that she’d leave her dad but she’s there for her mom 1000%%

got in trouble a lot in school growing up

got detentions constANTly for (but not limited to) skipping class, arguing with the teachers, fighting with other students, pulling pranks, instead of doing the assignment writing an essay on why the assignment was stupid and pointless and offering suggestions that would be better uses of everyone’s time 

never actually graduated from high school 

her dad really wanted her to go to college and had an in with several ivy league schools that would accept her despite her lack of a hs diploma (with a generous donation from her father ofc) 

there was literally nothing gin wanted less 

honestly if her father says he wants her to do something she does the complete opposite 

moved out when she turned eighteen

lives in a crappy one room apartment (ooc: or possibly two room if someone is looking for a less than ideal roomie?? ;D) with a stray cat she says she hates but she actually loves shhhh

honestly keeps most ppl at an arm’s length b/c she doesn’t like dealing with emotIONS

gin: [feels any emotion for longer than five minutes] oh. oh god

"when people get a little too chummy with me, i like to call them by the wrong name to show them I don’t really care about them.” 

pretends she doesn’t care but cares a LOT

tends to be mean to your face but nice behind your back if she likes you???

just super mean all the time to you if she hates you

her friends know she cares tho even when she pretends she doesn’t

"loser” and “idiot” are her go to terms of endearment

gin’s mom: watch your language!!!

gin: oh fuck sorry

started smoking just to piss her dad off and now it is a bad habit #whoops

 doesn’t make a lot of money and honestly is living paycheck to paycheck 

gin @ milo: “babe get ready for a night on the town. i just found an old subway gift card and there’s still $9.45 left on it.” 

speaking of milo ... 

he’s her best friend in the entire world!!!!!!!!

never thought of him romantically until she realized he was interested in someone else (yay!) 

suPER jealous!!!!!! 

“alice is stupid” ~ gin, for no reason 

hATES that she likes milo and is getting all ~*~feelsy~*~

gin’s life hack #842049: instead of having a crush on a living human boy, punch yourself right in the fucking face for the same effect

can get sUPER competitive 

has never, ever, in her life backed down from a dare 

telling her she can’t do something, is only going to fuel her to do it (and do it better than u) 

has a favorite gray hoodie she wears all the time under her black leather jacket

wears lots of rings and her favorite one has an owl on it (milo gave it to her for her b-day one year which is part of why it’s special but if you ask where she got it, she’ll tell you she doesn’t remember smh) 

kinda likes her job at the gift shop but don’t ask her about her plans for the future b/c she’ doesn’t have any! 

super impulsive!!!! lives in the moment!!!!
