hiii i’m tj (27 / she/her / GMT-4) and this is leon and i love him so much so please extend the love lmao
bio
born and raised in king’s haven, leon is an only child. his parents went through a pretty nasty divorce when he was seven. his father disappeared from the map and even though he was supposed to pay child support, he hardly ever did. leon’s mother did everything in her power to give her son the best education. she paid for guitar and piano lessons. she even sent him to berklee because that’s how talented leon has always been in her eyes.
he was in bands in high school, but it wasn’t until college that he learned how to work collaboratively with other musicians and songwriters. his newest band -where he plays rhythm guitar and sings, sometimes piano- has been doing gigs since they all graduated, but the mini tour is over and leon really needed a rest. so, he’s staying back with a friend in king’s haven until the band starts working on another project together.
it the meantime, leon is doing his own solo project. he has a backing band (wcs) and everything. he’s not exactly close with them. they met just a month ago, but they’ve been playing gigs in clubs and bars and people absolutely go crazy with the songs. it’s a new feeling for leon, but he loves it.
tw bpd
temptation (band) is more indie rock than anything. they still have some catchy pop-infused choruses, though. leon writes most of the songs, they relate to his struggles to live a normal life. he was diagnosed with bpd (borderline personality disorder) when he was nineteen and has been medicated since he was thirteen. he tries not to let it get to him, but the moodswings and the impulsive rage are sometimes too strong for him to handle on his own. that’s why he uses music as a coping mechanism. and even though you can definitely dance to temptations’ music, the lyrics can get pretty dark. this also percolates his solo work. sometimes, the monologue in his head can get rotten, infecting everything in his life. you’ll find him uncharacteristically depressed. it last a week tops, though.
headcanons
plays guitar, piano, bass and sings
has never had a girlfriend, just random hookups at parties
goes to therapy yet he’s such a party animal, it’s another coping mechanism
( muse n / 26 / cis female / she/her ) — did you see vivienne moore wandering around the island today? they kind of look like zendaya from certain angles? i heard around town that the baker is altruistic and cordial, but also diffident and stoic. people say that they remind them of clear frames with lenses that are lightly fogged, baggy knitted cardigans, and the sound of soft laughter echoing through the kitchen, and good days by sza is definitely their theme song. they seem like a nice enough person, but we all know how hard it is to keep a pristine reputation in a small town.
hi everyone!! i'm jojo, and i'm stoked to be here :) here's a quick rundown of vivi, and if you'd like to plot, feel free to hit me up!!
ꔛ ۫ ✿ dossier, basics.
full name: vivienne iris moore
nickname(s): vivi, viv, v
age: 26 years old
date of birth: july 14
birthplace: saint james, missouri
current residence: kings haven, massachusetts
gender: cis woman, she/her pronouns
orientation: pansexual, panromantic
occupation: baker at early gull and business owner
ꔛ ۫ ✿ dossier, history.
vivi was adopted by a sweet older couple when she was four years old and raised in the countryside of missouri
family was everything to her. she was close to her parents, and they always provided her a childhood full of unconditional love and support :') her fondest memories of them involved baking sweets every sunday afternoon
growing up she was always the outdoors-y type, appreciating nature and all of it's beauty. aside providing assistance in tending the farm, she was always found hanging out by the fields or water, reading a book or knitting
as an only child living in the literal middle of nowhere, on top of being homeschooled, her social skills ... needed some help!! small talk with the elderly came easy, but with peers and those her age? seemed impossible. even up until now, with slight improvement, she continues to be more reserved
her experience with public school began in high school. it was hard for her to fit in and make friends, so she kept a tight-knit group and focused on her studies
she was then accepted into the university of massachusetts, and 4 years later, received her bachelor's degree in agricultural sciences
a part of her wanted to go back home after graduating, but her parents convinced her that it was time to be selfish. so, she settled down in kings haven and it's been her home since!!
now she works as a baker at the early gull to make ends meet. her real passion is her currently failing business, where she crochets little plants and flower bouquets and sells them online
ꔛ ۫ ✿ dossier, facts.
isn't a big fan of the elite and the wealthy - due to the fact that they've screwed over her parents and their business in the past. she'll be cordial towards them, though maintains a distance
has a green thumb!! she has a lil fruit and veggie garden at her place and will sometimes share the harvest to neighbors and friends
acts like a mom that is worried about ur well-being
is so old fashioned that she hasn't upgraded her phone in years ... and prefers phone calls over texts ... sends letters in the mail ... listens to music on an ipod nano and pays $1.25 per song ...
loves to bake!! her specialties include macarons and any fruit pie imaginable
♕ ( muse p / 29 / cis woman / she, her, hers ) — did you see ZARA HART wandering around the island today? they kind of look like GRETA ONIEOGOU from certain angles? i heard around town that the ER NURSE is PLUCKY, and OPTIMISTIC, but also STUBBORN, and IMPULSIVE. people say that they remind them of PURPLE BAND-AIDS, THE SMELL OF MAPLE SYRUP, and UNTIED SHOELACES, and SPECIAL by SZA is definitely their theme song. they seem like a nice enough person, but we all know how hard it is to keep a pristine reputation in a small town. ( admin jay / 26 / cst / she, her, hers )
✧*・゚𝒃𝒊𝒐𝒈𝒓𝒂𝒑𝒉𝒚
zara hart was born and raised in kings haven, massachusetts. she spent her whole life in one little town with the same greasy diners on the same three streets, and she hated it. it was probably why she got into trouble so often: idle hands, as the saying goes.
also, you know, the unmedicated adhd didn’t help lmao.
it didn’t help that her parents spent most of their lives in the family restaurant. at first, zara did her homework in the back booths, but after one too many vaulted straws and games of 'the restaurant floor is lava', she was banished to ride her bike outside–as long as she looked both ways, twice.
her parents did their best not to let zara in on their economic problems, but it was pretty obvious as she got older. in high school, she waited tables at the restaurant, and quickly realized after watching that her parents struggle that her dreams of running away to italy, meet some dashing stranger, and then drive away from the world together into to the fading sunset in his vintage roadster weren't going to happen.
instead of living out a lifetime fairytale, she went to school online and got her nursing degree, and now she's a nurse in the er at the same hospital she was born in.
pretty much her entire identity is taking care of other people, and her signature move is getting over-involved in people's, especially her parents. she knows that her dad has struggled with his vices in the past, so she's personally going to ensure he doesn't fall into his old habits.
✧*・゚𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕
overall, zara is sunshine personified ( including the searing heat from her fits of passionate rage when feels something is unjust ). she's the kind of person that believes in the best of everything (think jess from new girl, phoebe from friends, and leslie knope from parks and rec). however, she does have a quick temper, and is constantly working on being as zen as she wants people to think she is.
a goofball who enjoys pranks and shenanigans at all hours of the day. she’s lowkey an adrenal junkie; that’s why she specialized in er nursing instead. she loves the blood and gore lmao.
she’s an avid runner. i know, gross, but she gets up at five in the morning everyday just so she can run a couple miles before work, or she'll get home and run after a graveyard shift. there's something sick in her head.
she’s a not-so-secret Hopeless romantic. her dream is to run into her soulmate on the beach at sunset, and they'll both be listening to taylor swift and somehow get their air pods mixed up.
but in reality she doesn't have time for romance after one too many failed relationships, and tbh no one can ever live up to her dream diary, so all her dates stay in her mind.
she will do anything for a friend, but she will let no man cross her–women and non-binary babes get a few more free passes.

intro
Name: Zachary Leport
Age: 35
Birthday: Feb 12, 1988
Education: Bachelors degree in Business & Computer Science, Masters in Business
bio
Zachary's childhood is marked by turmoil and instability. His parents' divorce causes him to be constantly shuffled between their homes, but the only place he finds refuge is at his uncle's house. He develops a strong bond with his younger cousin, River, and is fiercely protective of him. In the midst of the difficult circumstances, he has a brilliant mind and is constantly looking for ways to better himself.
After completing high school, Zach attends Harvard and double majors in computer science and business. He excels in his studies and lands a job in cyber security in New York City after graduation. While in New York, he reconnects with Hazal, a girl he knows from Kings Haven. Despite their four-year age difference, their friendship blossoms, and he takes her under his wing.
One night, after their farewell dinner, he kissed Hazal. The friendly feelings he feels for her are no longer only friendly. He likes her and with liquid courage in his veins, he kisses her after they meet up for a farewell dinner for his transfer to Los Angeles for work. He's convinced they had something special and tries to persuade her to give them a chance. But she politely declines, and he leaves for Los Angeles feeling dejected..
For the next few years Zach focused on his work and thrived in the cyber security industry. He eventually started his own business, Cyber Vault, and 2 years ago, the company went global. His success allowed him to extend his stay in Los Angeles, but after a while, he felt a strong pull to return to Kings Haven.
Two months ago, he made the move back home, bringing with him his thriving business. Though now, he is no longer a boy who left Kings Haven in search of a better future. He is now a business owner, with Cyber Vault continuing to expand and evolve.

schmidt ( new girl ), pimento ( b99 ), donkey ( shrek ), lumière ( beauty and the beast ), flynn rider ( tangled ), sokka ( atla )
𝕓𝕒𝕔𝕜𝕘𝕣𝕠𝕦𝕟𝕕 !!
so first things first, i guess we should start back at the beginning in a galaxy far, far away––except not really that far away because noah was born and raised in a shitty little trailer on kings haven island.
his parents were hippies who fell in love for one summer in mexico à la what a girl wants with amanda bynes.
*sighs wistfully* but summer couldn’t last forever. his dad went back to california to take over the family wine grove, and his mom went crawling back to live with in with her parents on the island she so desperately wanted to escape from.
he talked to his dad occasionally growing up, but honestly he was happy with the expensive gifts he sent him for his birthday and christmas.
mostly, he spent his time with his grandma. she is ,,, a nut, but so much fun. she’s a sculptor, and she always let noah throw wet clay at the walls of her studio.
he spent his entire educational career fucking around. he skipped class all the time to hook up or dick around with his friends. he managed to hide a lot of it bc his grandma isn’t exactly the type of parental figure to check his grades, but she did take his car away when he almost didn’t graduate lmao.
he played soccer through a comp team bc they don’t have a gpa requirement. he didn’t really take it seriously, but he was pretty good at the state level.
he had to go to summer school basically every summer, but the teachers usually didn’t mind bc he brought donuts and pizza all the time.
he started at nyu with a soccer scholarship ( literally the only reason he got in was bc of test scores, pretty white boy priveledge, and his athleticism ), but he showed up hungover to practice too many times, so they cut him sophomore year. thankfully, lil bby boy had his estranged, guilty dad to pay his tuition.
he graduated–barely, but he did it-and got a gig selling software, so he travels a lot and works from home.
sometimes he’s like maybe i should do something with my life and make my grandma proud, but mostly he’s like...or i can just keep visiting her and doing absolutely nothing with my life.
𝕡𝕖𝕣𝕤𝕠𝕟𝕒𝕝𝕚𝕥𝕪 !!
he’s uuuuuuuuuhhhhhhh a big ho because hard work ?? relationships ?? rejection ?? we don’t know her here in this house.
a chronic flirt. hate him.
but !! he’s v upfront about his intentions, or actually i guess his lack of intentions, bc his grandma would kick his ass if he played a girl just to get in her pants.
he’s really chill. it takes a lot to get under his skin bc he doesn’t give a shit about literally anything. it’s his biggest problem, honestly.
his life motto is you can’t fail if you don’t try lmao. the apathy is strong in this one.
he is always down to get into shenanigans of any kind, especially during work hours.

did you see ALESSANDRA LOMBARDI wandering around the island today? they kind of look like MADELAINE PESTCH from certain angles? i heard around town that the BOUTIQUE OWNER is LOYAL, and COQUETTISH , but also VILE , and SELF CENTERED. people say that they remind them of BLOOD RED NAILS, SIREN LIKE VOICE, and THE ALLURING SCENT OF COCO MADEMOISELLE , and YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME by BON JOVI is definitely their theme song. they seem like a nice enough person, but we all know how hard it is to keep a pristine reputation in a small town.
alessandra lombardi was born in sicily , Italy. the eldest daughter of the american - Italian senator : agostino lombardi. her father had traveled to Italy to visit some family, when he met her mother anastasia moretti. it didn’t take much for her father to sway her mother off her feet and in less two months , they were married and anastasia was just weeks pregnant with alessandra. her father traveled from the states to Italy frequently but it wasn’t until her mother had a fall that he decided , to stay with her until she gave birth to alessandra.
at the start , it was all butterflies and rainbows as they arrived to the americas. her father had been elected mayor and the older she got , the more she realized : her mother wasn’t happy . she dotted on her father , she loved him dearly . it’s not like she didn’t love her mother because she did but she also didn’t know how to talk to her or how to find things that they both enjoyed because no matter what she did , it was never good enough for her mother .
until one day , she got home from school and her mother was never around to be found . her clothes were gone and so was her baby sister and brother. it’s like they had vanished from thin air , the vanishing from her siblings and brother changed her in some way . why did she leave ? why didn’t she care enough about her , to take her too ? what was wrong with her ? she beat herself over and over for years about why she hadn’t been good enough and the absence of her mother turned her cold .
no matter how many times her father re-married or found a new girlfriend , in her mind - no one passed the test . they were a few nice ones here and there but then again , they were closer to her age than her fathers . it’s not like they liked him for anything else than the money but then lighting doesn’t only strike once right ? just like tragedy . alessandra felt in love , deeply in love and even though it was good at the start , it turned into lying and cheating ( or so that’s what she believed from her friend group ) . so she did the only thing that , she knew how to do : she ran home to her father , like she always did.
she let the heartbreak last a few days , cried her eyes out and then her father gifted her a store along the beach , stacked with all her favorite brands and even her own makeup line . alessandra has been working non stop , trying to surface the second part of her makeup brand , keeping herself busy trying to pay attention but attention might have payed her .

first of all, lottie wants to butt in and inform you that it’s lottie, not carlota––and if that’s too difficult for you to remember, don’t talk to her at all. this is not a joke. you have been warned.
clearly, this attitude stems from somewhere, and it’s from being the middle child of her family of four (( ya girl had to get attention Somehow )). she has an older sister who she loves to hate and hates to love, and a younger brother who takes after every early 2000s disney channel show’s annoying little brother character. lottie was the resident goth stuck in the middle.
her dad split when she was in middle school with no explanation and left her mom to pick up the pieces and his massive credit card debt. lottie’s really close to her mom, but her mom is kind of a mess lmao. her mom writes trashy romance novels, and she’s really whimsical and fun...but she’s also impulsive and forgets when the bills are due.
a lot of that is because her mom grew up really quickly. her grandparents expected her mom to be perfect from a very young age, so her mom reverted to the child she never got to be once she got away from her parents––but y'know...we don't talk about generational trauma in this household.
lottie assumed the responsibility of being her mother’s keeper, and she’s pretty jaded because of it tbh. lottie vc: if you want something done At All, do it yourfuckingself.
she was Super motivated in high school and college. like she had to be the best at everything in school, and she had to get into the best universities with the best programs to prove to the world how fucking great she was.
it worked for a while. she graduated valedictorian from high school and with honors from boston u, and then she got accepted into the harvard medical program. she lasted a year and then flunked out.
lottie doesn’t talk about it ever bc like she’s so fucking humiliated that she failed, so most people wouldn’t know she went to med school at all. she kind of gave up on life after she dropped out of harvard.
her dreams were crushed, so when the hotel was hiring just about anyone with a bachelors to be a receptionist, she applied so that she’d have a paycheck to buy video games and comic books.
thanks for coming to my ted talk.
✧*・゚𝒂𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕
so i know you aren’t technically Supposed to open with a disclaimer, but, disclaimer–lottie is annoying as fuck for a variety of reasons:
1) if you get to know her, she doesn’t shut up. like, i’m just apologizing for her in advance. even when she got her tonsils out, she just used a text to speech app to pontificate on eeveelutions and jason todd despite Many protests to stop.
2) she’s incapable of admitting she’s wrong. it will never ever happen. you know that scene in malcom in the middle where they show lois the tape of her pulling out in front of the car when the cop pulled her over, and she was like the tape is wrong. that’s lottie–and she’d like to point out that lois was proven to be right, thank you very much.
she’s a giant nerd. obvi. she’s obsessed with quantum theory, organic chemistry, and biology, specifically, but also, y’know, ridiculous superheroes and anime.
she’s also a punk nerd; music is v, v important to her. her favorite bands are probably fall out boy pre-mania, blink before tom delonge left for the final time, green day always, the offspring, and sum 41. pls roast her. who does she think she is.
also, not a personality trait but v important, she was a goth in high school, and not a cool one lmao.
she doesn’t believe in relationships bc she’s like that’s so much effort for so little reward, so she mostly sleeps around with men who she knows are completely wrong for her no matter the consequences.
she’s a not-so-secret pessimist. it’s v annoying, and i’m sorry.
