tw: divorce
Name: Dominic Brady
Nicknames: Dom
Age: Forty-seven
DoB: 25th October 1977
Occupation: Lawyer
Romantic/sexual orientation: Biromantic/bisexual
Birthplace: Windsor, UK
IMMEDIATE FAMILY.
Parents: Richard & Cynthia Brady
Siblings: One older and two younger siblings
Children: Fraternal twins ( 25 ), Elliot ( 14 )
Pets: One Maine Coon cat named Mercutio
ABOUT.
Dominic was born to money. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. As a result, he grew up wanting for nothing. He could have anything and everything that he wanted, so long as he did what his parents said anyway.
For him, that involved heading off to Eton as soon as he was old enough to, just as his father had done before him and his grandfather before him. His younger brother was expected to do the same. When it came to the Brady children, they were supposed to perform.
When it came to university, he travelled across the pond to the States and to Harvard Law School. It wasn’t exactly what he wanted then, but his father made him do his best and aim the highest that he could. That, of course, meant it had to be Harvard.
While he was there and away from his parents' watchful gaze, he began to explore another kind of lifestyle. He partied hard and he definitely did his best ( to enjoy every second, at least ).
It took a couple of years, but in the end he realised that law was actually what he wanted, that his father was right —- something he wouldn't actually admit out loud to the other man.
He spent six years out in Massachusetts studying in the end, getting all the qualifications he needed.
There was a slight distraction during that time, however, when the girl he'd been casually dating fell pregnant and he ended up as a father of twins all of a sudden. The pair attempted to make things work for his remaining years out in Cambridge, but in the end, they really weren't suited as a couple. They are fantastic co-parents, though, something that hasn't changed in the slightest in 25 years.
Once he graduated, he made his way to New York, moving into a three-storey townhouse in Greenwich Village, purchased with his trust fund of course. He finally made a proper life for himself there, the twins splitting their time between New York and Boston.
He found himself a job at an up-and-coming law firm, spending his late twenties working his way up the ladder and making a name for himself. By his mid-thirties he was one of the most sought-after lawyers in the city.
Dominic also found himself in his most serious relationship, one that led to him meeting his soon-to-be wife. In the end, they were married for nine years and have a son together, Elliot ( 14 ), but the marriage fell apart thanks to them both being such workaholics. Making time for anything just seemed impossible in the end.
Ten years or so ago, Marlowe and Brady was formed, a boutique law firm opened up with a friend. He hasn't looked back since.

BIOGRAPHY
Born in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Rosamund comes from the country’s richest family — her father founded one of the biggest media conglomerates in the world, CXC Corp, a fierce rival to its counterparts Fox News, CNN, MSNBC and the like.
Up until the age of nine, Ros lived in Malaysia with her family before relocating to New York City, a move that was prompted by her father’s career.
They settled into a lavish mansion on the Upper East Side — the Chung patriarch wanted nothing but the very best for their family and that’s exactly what they got.
From the moment she was put on this earth, she was preened to take over the company one day when the time came. It had always been a controversial choice, considering in most situations the eldest child would take the reins of the family business, while Ros was the second born. Although, her father always knew she was the only one of his children who truly had what it takes to live up to his greatness and run the company in a way he’d be proud of.
Much to her siblings’ dismay, the time came for her to take over the company in 2019. Naturally it caused rifts between her and some of her siblings, the company is at the best it’s ever been since the nineties, its net worth doubling over a matter of years.
At the age of 19, Rosamund married Henry Meyer — the son of one of her father’s closest investor/family friend. It was an arranged marriage — something young Ros certainly wasn’t on board with, but in order to secure the company once her dad passed, she went along with it. More than willing to do whatever it took.
Married for 39 years, having three wonderful children to show for it and being at the top of her game career wise, there is still an unhappiness that sits at the pit of her heart. She doesn’t love her husband, and never has… at least not in the way that a wife should love her husband. And because of this, she had begun seeking out intimacy outside of her marriage.

Appearance
Vesper is striking, with a timeless yet edgy beauty. She has long, sleek, naturally dark hair that she dyes red/auburn and often styles in elegant waves or pulls back in chic updos. Her sharp green eyes are framed by perfectly sculpted brows, with a touch of eyeliner that enhances their intensity. Her style is effortlessly high fashion, favoring tailored blazers, silk blouses, and statement accessories like oversized sunglasses and bold earrings. Standing at 5’6”, she carries herself with grace and confidence, her figure still lithe from years of balancing a demanding career and two children. There’s a quiet elegance about her, but a newly awakened rebelliousness glimmers beneath the surface. Vesper’s complexion is fair, with the faintest hint of freckles dotting her nose, a reminder of her English roots.

Personality
Vesper is imaginative, sharp, and driven. She channels her creativity into her work, always looking for the next bold idea or innovative design. Her career is a point of pride, and she’s incredibly disciplined, having risen to the top of her field. Despite her success, she’s still recovering from the emotional blow of her divorce, which has stirred up feelings of betrayal, loss, and anger. Vesper has a fiery side that’s been suppressed for too long, and now, in her post-divorce life, she’s rediscovering herself, allowing her wild, rebellious energy to come to the forefront. She can be calculating and cunning, especially with her current fixation on revenge. At the same time, she’s protective of her children and values independence. Beneath her strong exterior, Vesper is vulnerable and healing, determined to reclaim her identity.
In a Nutshell
Vesper, born in the UK, always stood out due to her creativity and imagination, though this led to years of bullying and isolation throughout her childhood. With an unstable home life and a constant feeling of not fitting in, she found solace in art, discovering her passion at a young age. Eager to escape, Vesper moved to the U.S. to attend the California Institute of the Arts, where she flourished academically and personally, meeting her future husband. They married after two years together, and she had her first child shortly after. Vesper continued her studies, eventually transferring to Parsons in New York, where she graduated with a degree in communication design. Her talent landed her a job at Marc Jacobs, and she steadily built a successful career, eventually becoming the Creative Director at Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton.
Despite her professional achievements, Vesper's personal life began to unravel after 25 years of marriage. She suspected her husband of infidelity, and by the next January (2024), he filed for divorce, taking nearly everything. Starting over, Vesper moved into a loft in Manhattan, reclaiming her maiden name and focusing on rebuilding herself after years of being defined by her role as his wife. Recently, she discovered her ex-husband's new relationship and, fueled by jealousy and anger, decided to get revenge. Vesper’s journey from a misunderstood and isolated child to a powerful, creative force underscores her resilience, even as she navigates the emotional fallout of betrayal and reinvention.
Headcanons
Vesper likely has a signature fragrance, Tom Ford’s Tuscan Leather, it’s classic but bold, a mix of leather, amber, and patchouli. She keeps a scrapbook or mood board from her early days in design school, filled with doodles and fashion cutouts, a glimpse into her creative mind. Vesper also keeps handwritten journals where she sketches designs and writes down her thoughts, ideas, and even personal reflections. These journals are deeply private, and no one else has access to them. After the divorce, she has trouble sleeping, often staying up late sketching designs, her thoughts consumed by both work and revenge. Vesper is now obsessed with fitness and health, taking up yoga and Pilates as ways to center herself amidst the emotional turmoil. She also has an affinity for crystals and keeps a small collection at home to help with stress relief and focus. She isn’t overly spiritual, but she believes in the power of energy. She has a small circle of friends, mostly other high-powered women in the fashion industry, and is learning to rebuild her social life, although she is wary of who to trust. Her new loft is minimalist yet stylish, with a lot of black-and-white décor and pops of color from art pieces and plants.
Wanted Connections
Eldest Daughter: Vesper’s eldest daughter, now in her mid-twenties (25) has a complex relationship with her. She’s a creative like her parents but chose a different path other than design and music tech, something that allows her to express her individuality. Their relationship was a little strained, with the daughter feeling a bit neglected during Vesper’s intense career-building years, but they have since grown closer now that she is out of college and working in the industry herself. Following the divorce and finding out her father is dating someone only a few years older than her, she is struggling with her feelings about all of it and is unsure of what to think about it. Ex-Husband: Vesper’s ex-husband is a once-charming figure in the audio industry, having majored in music technology and initially thriving in his career, working on sound design for films. Their marriage, founded on shared dreams and creativity, began to crumble as Vesper’s career in design flourished and he struggled with jealousy and insecurity. Following their divorce, he finds himself grappling with feelings of inadequacy while trying to maintain a cordial relationship for the sake of their children. Their dynamic is characterized by a blend of lingering affection and unresolved bitterness, with Vesper reclaiming her independence and forcing him to confront his regrets. Their interactions are often charged, oscillating between nostalgic warmth and raw tension, complicating Vesper’s emotional journey as she moves forward.
Colleague/Best Friend: A close friend or coworker in the fashion industry who has been by her side for years. This person is her confidant, someone who has watched Vesper rise to the top but also witnessed the cracks forming in her marriage. They might have even warned her about her husband’s infidelity or are now supporting her through her revenge schemes.
Rival: Another Creative Director or designer who’s been both a friend and a foe throughout Vesper’s career. This person has always envied her position, and now that she’s a bit shaken post-divorce, they’re circling, waiting to take advantage of her vulnerability, whether professionally or personally.
Mentor/Father Figure: The former creative director at Marc Jacobs, now retired, who played a pivotal role in Vesper’s career rise. He recognized her talents early on and took her under his wing, teaching her the ropes of the fashion industry. They have a strong bond, with him acting as a father figure. In her post-divorce life, she looks to him for guidance and/or he offers Vesper opportunities to explore new creative ventures.
Therapist: During the divorce process, Vesper sought out therapy to navigate her complex emotions and her sense of loss. She still goes to therapy now post-divorce. Her doctor helps Vesper work through her feelings of betrayal, insecurity, and the struggle of finding her identity outside of her career and marriage. This relationship provides insight into Vesper’s internal world, showing her emotional growth as she rediscovers herself.
New Love Interest: Someone Vesper meets unexpectedly; maybe at one of the bars her ex-husband’s new girlfriend frequents (where Vesper was stalking trying to run into her naturally) or through a work-related event. This person, who could be any gender, represents a fresh start for Vesper. They’re confident, supportive, and unafraid of Vesper’s ambition and strength. They help her rediscover her capacity for love, but at a pace that feels safe and empowering.

Personality
Karmen embodies a captivating blend of resilience and warmth, navigating the complexities of her past with a fierce determination to honor her late partner, Kayla. Beneath her confident exterior lies a depth of empathy shaped by her own struggles, making her an unwavering advocate for women's rights and mental health awareness. Her humor and down-to-earth nature draw people in, allowing her to forge genuine connections despite the superficiality of the fashion world. While she can come off as a touch vain, it's a reflection of her self-assuredness, a shield against her vulnerabilities. As she tentatively explores new relationships, Karmen's cautious heart reveals her longing for connection, making her both relatable and inspiring.
In a Nutshell
Karmen knew all of her life that she wanted to be a model. She had the height for it and the grace from years of ballet growing up. From the day she was born, her parents knew she'd end up being a star. They put her in all sorts of extracurricular activities growing up from ballet to harp lessons. They got her roles in commercials and entered her in pageants. It wasn't until she was a teenager that she really got her start in modeling. She was walking down the streets of Manhattan with her friends when a woman stopped her and gave her her card.
Karmen has traveled all around the world with her agency, modeling for different companies and brands. She's rarely at home but when she is, she makes sure to see her family. She gives credit for her success to her parents. She has an older brother who is often overlooked by their parents so when she's with them, she gives them extra attention. She resides in Manhattan and does fashion shows around the city as well as print modeling. You'd think that she was stuck up but she's a pretty down-to-earth person.
Headcanons
Karmen has an extensive collection of vintage clothing and loves to mix high fashion with thrifted finds. She often shares her unique style tips on social media, encouraging fans to express themselves. Aside from modeling, Karmen is a budding photographer. She enjoys capturing candid moments of her friends and the beauty of everyday life, often using her camera as a therapeutic outlet. When she's not working, Karmen loves to travel off the beaten path, exploring hidden gems in new cities. She often documents her travels through her photography. She sometimes collaborates with artists to create limited-edition prints, with proceeds going to organizations supporting mental health and body positivity. Karmen takes on a mentor role for young aspiring models, hosting workshops and offering guidance on navigating the industry while prioritizing mental health and self-worth. Karmen practices mindfulness and meditation regularly, emphasizing the importance of mental health. She sometimes hosts online meditation sessions for her followers. Cooking has become a newfound passion for her. She loves experimenting with healthy recipes and often invites friends over for dinner parties, blending her love for food and socializing. Karmen is an avid reader, particularly drawn to memoirs and poetry. She finds solace in books that resonate with her own experiences, and she often shares her favorite reads with her followers. Karmen is known for her curated playlists, which she shares with friends. Each playlist reflects her mood or the vibe of a specific event, making her a go-to DJ at gatherings.
Wanted Connections
Older Brother: Although they are close and Karmen tries her hardest to make sure he feels included, he sometimes feels buried feelings of resentment towards his younger sister's status. Despite that, he is still very supportive of her.
Friends: She's lived in New York her entire life so these friends could be ones from childhood all the way up to the present day. She could've met them on set or at a local shop in Manhattan.
Enemies: Living in New York all her life, she's made some impressions on people that rubbed them the wrong way. She doesn't like them either, to be honest.
Rivals: The modeling world can be challenging enough without someone trying to steal her thunder. In front of the cameras, they're best friends but behind the scenes, they secretly want to outdo one another.
Exes: She's had her romances. These exes can be from childhood all the way up to the present day. She's usually the one to end things between them before they get too serious. She has trust issues.
Future romance: She loves love even though she's afraid of it. She's just afraid to lose someone again so she doesn't really put herself out there like that anymore but she wants to try.

ABOUT.
Ellora was born in Long Island to second-generation American-Tamil Indian parents and had a pretty dull upbringing overall. She was never about to lie over that.
Both her and her sister were left to their own devices for the most part, their parents busy with jobs in the medical profession. Elle, however, had other ideas for her own future.
It became apparent quite early on in her life that she didn’t really enjoy being around people all that much. She didn’t have too many friends, her closest companions her younger sister and the family dog.
School went by slowly, awkwardly, it didn’t take her long to realise she wasn’t exactly the same as the other girls her age. While they were talking about boys ( constantly ) she was thinking about anything but. She had no interest, no crushes, not even when it came to celebrities. Her best friend was obsessing over Harry Styles and questioning why she wasn’t doing the same; Elle, meanwhile, was researching what she planned to do after school, considering jobs with animals.
In the end, she went through her entire school life not caring about boys at all. Naturally, she began to question if that meant it was girls instead, which she realised, of course, that it wasn’t… there was just nothing there.
Her first kiss didn’t happen until seventeen and she’d almost wished it hadn’t. She still regrets even allowing it to happen.
Her full attention went to her education after that, training up in various animal care and zoology courses, keeping herself as busy as she could. Animals had to be the way.
By the time she graduated she’d picked up a job at the Central Park Zoo working in the conservation department. She’s moved through various different areas there, but is now the main keeper for the meerkats.
With work being her main concern for most of her young adult life, it wasn’t until her early twenties that she made any kind of attempt to work out her sexuality again, finally landing upon aroace, although that took a long time. Her mother’s very against it, will constantly tell her how it’s a phase and she’ll meet the right person; she refuses to believe at of it. Elle knows she won’t, not in that capacity, yet the older woman continues on.
It makes sense, her not understanding of course, but it doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt Elle deeply every time the conversation comes up. She does her best to ignore it, but it's safe to say it's put a strain on her relationship with the older woman.
