Lorelei Bauer, our Zazie Beetz, is looking for their ex-boyfriend!
They’re a human or witch, and are said to look like Miles Teller, John O’Connor, Keith Powers, Justice Smith, UTP. You do have to contact Luci @ritualove before applying!
As soon as Lorelei left high school, she started dating exclusively men. After numerous failed relationships, she discovered that she was a lesbian, and came out to this character, who was supportive. It was understandably quite an awkward scenario, and they had to break up. There is some more depth to their relationship, but it’s a part of Lorelei’s secret, so feel free to message me and we will chat about it <3
michael webb, our keith powers, is looking for their best friend.
they’re 22-26 years old, work as part of the maintenance team, or utp, and are said to look like utp.
you do not have to contact logan ( michaelisms ) before applying !
michael hates being in shrike heights, he's only here because his siblings both moved here and got hurt, and he felt a responsibility to follow and try to help them and get them to come home. they haven't yet decided to leave, and in the mean time, michael has been attacked, too. despite that giving him more reason to want to leave, there are many reasons - a lot unknown - keeping michael here. i wanted him to have made a friend better than any other he's ever had, someone that acts as part of the reason keeping him here. he's been in shrike since the beginning of 1989, so i thought them meeting as co-workers could have brought them together sooner, though as he works up-keeping stores all over the mall they could have met through that too. i see it working best as a fast friends connection, and would love for them to be each other's best friends - it not only one sided. all other details can be plotted between us!

THE FOLLOWING IS A RECORDING FROM FULTON UNIVERSITY. THIS AUDIO RECORDING WILL BE KEPT CONFIDENTIAL. THIS AUDIO WAS RECORDED ON FEBRUARY 12TH, 2018.
(Recorder clicks on)
INTERVIEWER: Good morning, Mr. Drake. It is nice to meet you in person rather than email. Before we start, I want to let you know that my secretary is recording this meeting for record keeping. Let me know if this makes you uncomfortable. As you were informed via email prior to this meeting, I will be asking you some questions to determine your fit in the program. Your entrance into the program will depend on your answers but no pressure.
CHARLES DRAKE: Yes, sir. It is a pleasure to meet you as well. Record away, I have no problem with that. I look forward to answering your questions. I always love to start my mornings with off with friendly chats. Please, sir, ask away.
INTERVIEWER: Good, it is nice to see someone so peppy at 8 o’clock in the morning. I expected you to need coffee. Anyways, let us begin, shall we? What experience do you have that you feel has prepared you for the stress of graduate school?
CHARLES DRAKE: I try to steer away from coffee. Protein shakes and smoothies are the way to go. Well, sir, I believe one of the biggest stressors in graduate school is accountability. Graduate students often mention how you are expected to be on your own. You are no longer reminded of deadlines or required to attend classes due to an attendance policy. Instead, you are responsible for waking up on time, turning in your assignments, and diving much deeper into the work than in undergraduate. Ultimately, you hold yourself accountable for your own education and knowledge of your field.
But, you see, sir, I have already held myself accountable. My mother was not involved much with my sister and I. And my father…well, he ended up in jail when I was seventeen. I took on the responsibility of raising my sister. I was not going to let our futures dissolve because of absent parenting. I do not come from a place where I was allowed to fix my mistakes. I was responsible for my own education and for my sister’s education. And, well, as you saw in my records, sir, I graduated in the top 10% of my undergraduate class. My sister just recently graduated high school with a 3.92 grade point average and a full ride to her dream school. My accountability and passion will drive me through trying times in this program.
INTERVIEWER: Uh huh, I see, so your parents were not around? That is a shame. I am glad to hear that both you and your sister have a promising future despite their unwillingness to help you gain that future. What challenges do you expect to face in this program?
CHARLES DRAKE: Would you mind if I took a moment to deliberate on that question and take a drink of my shake, sir?
INTERVIEWER: Not at all. Go ahead.
(a minute & one protein shake sip later)
CHARLES DRAKE: Well, sir, I believe I have two weaknesses in my life that would cause challenge in graduate school. The first is that I have a hard time letting go of projects I start. I always want to see it from start to finish. In graduate school, I know that topics get thrown around, but they are not necessarily fully fleshed out. I think I will have an issue letting go of cool topics I would like to write about for more realistic topics. This would be similar to an advisor telling you to write it their way rather than your way. It takes me a moment to switch gears and get it where it needs to be, but I will always keep an old draft on hand for future project ideas. Lastly, I could use more experience in delegating tasks. I often take on too many things at once because I do not want to both anyone else with my needs. Once I become too overwhelm, I start to delegate them, but until then, I stick to all the tasks. I need to learn when to delegate sooner than I currently do.
INTERVIEWER: Good thinking, Mr. Drake. If it helps any, while advisors do expect you to write a certain way, they will generally give you creative rights to the work. You are free to write whatever you would like under a specific topic.
CHARLES DRAKE: Yes, sir. I read that on your website. That is what drew me to your program. I chose you guys to help improve my weaknesses so I can be better prepared for the job market.
INTERVIEWER: It is nice to hear that you checked out the program. Many applicants fail to do so, but they also generally fail to get an interview. My last question for you, Mr. Drake, is to understand a bit more about you. I am going to ask you the toughest question. Why should we pick you? What stands out about you that you think is different from other applicants?
CHARLES DRAKE: That is a tough one, sir. It can be hard to determine what makes you stand out, but I think I have an answer for you - my willingness to be humble, quiet, and to learn. From what I have read about Fulton University, the success of the program stems being able to grow and develop as a writer. I started writing for my high school newsletter at seventeen. Unfortunately, none of my writing was accepted. I worked with my high school mentor to really develop my writing. By the time I hit undergraduate, my professors placed me in advanced skills workshops, guiding me to become a better writer. My drive and dedication is the reason Fox News was interested in me, but I decided to term them down to hone my skills. I know I am not close to newsworthy yet, but after this program, I am confident I will be ready for any story I write in the future.
INTERVIEWER: Awesome, thank you, Mr. Drake. You may proceed with the rest of your interview day. I will get back to you soon about your acceptance.
CHARLES DRAKE: Thanks, sir, for this amazing opportunity. You have certainly taught me to stay humble and question myself more. Have a blessed day, sir.
