i almost gave myself a fricking finger cramp liking all your intro posts/prclubtalk posts...goshDARN you guys are so active already! i go grocery shopping for 2 hours and the dash is completely full of new content and amazing writers???
i leave you guys alone for TWO! HOURS!
anyways hi everyone!!! so excited to be here! call me aza and i’ve also gone by wren before. if either of those names sound familiar it was PROBABLY me (but i absolve myself of anything embarrassing it’s been YEARS since i’ve been really active in krp/indie) and i’m one of your resident dumpster fires in human form!
i don’t use enough periods and use almost exclusively exclamation marks in casual convo and i’d love to plot with you all!!! let’s get into it!!!! leave a like or a comment or slide into my messages if you’re interested in plotting/writing!
this is her whole bio but here’s a quick and dirty rundown
parents were fake designer handbag/scarf sellers on the streets of guangzhou, and she loved trying to pick out the differences in a fake vs a real one, but her dad got arrested (on additional charges), and her mother split so she took her ass to a police station
adopted at age 9 into a wealthy family (older couple) and she realized that this was a fucking amazing opportunity. took advantage of it, fell in love with traditional art during the art education aspect of her high-brow education, and from there devolved into exploring all sorts of mediums and traditional/contemporary artists!
but also really enjoyed criminal justice, knew art wasn’t necessarily a stable career path (plus she can’t do it herself), and so went into the forensic arts as a lab tech for 4 years or so. no one took her seriously at first, just thought she was a pretty face but BAM comes along a case and she fucking solves it because it involves a real? fake? jackson polluck piece. pretty high profile case, so she gains some recognition/starts building up a reputation
from there, she dips from the lab because *double middle fingers up* and starts making connections with people from the art world and specifically from the art auction world.
works with/studies under/interns her time to other art scholars while being selective in contracting out her time (aka make it super fucking hard for people to schedule her time, and then the more they’re willing to beg/pay to get her specifically). as her art scholar/art historian resume builds, she continues to take on only high profile auction jobs
to the point where if she’s at an auction, prices on specific pieces with her seal of approval go up by the million - and also if she says it’s a real piece, people are generally inclined to believe her (which might make everyone’s jobs in the president’s club re: art a little easier, but only by a smidge)
as for her as a person...
she’s a bit of a priss? a bit of a bitch! but not really it’s just all a *krp voice* defense mechanism.
and like, she generally maintains a ‘classy’ air due to her teenage years of upper class living/manners/education which for the most part broke the streets out of her, but it’s kind of an...insecurity of hers, even after all these years.
obviously has abandonment issues so she doesn’t like to let people in past close platonic relationships like...familial and romantic relationships? PHEW! forget about it!!!
thus has resigned herself to the fact that she’s going to be without a partner for the rest of her life, but is okay-ish with that (as it’s kind of a natural human longing to be loved) so long as she’s doing something she loves and is surrounded by interesting people (and oh hey, that’s all your muses!)
speaks english pretty fluently, but does retain an accent
has those UGLY designer baggy clothes, but hates wearing them because they’re just ugly AND expensive. she’d much rather wear oversize, cheap, comfy clothes with hair tied and glasses on - or get completely dolled (hair? DONE! makeup? PRISTINE!) up in a $$$ sheath dress. extremes. she lives her life in them!
yeah she fucks! she’s thirty-one! considers physical relationships as just something that needs to be sated every now and then. i’m comfortable with nsfw themes, but if you’re not don’t WORRY and don’t feel like you need to incorporate it at all...i’m just in the camp of ‘i don’t think people should be afraid of talking about that stuff for their muses’ lmao
loves a good red lip, honestly
absolutely fucking hates sandals. thinks they’re an absolute abomination
biggest ‘social’ pet peeve is being interrupted while in the middle of a sentence/thought. she will literally try to bite your head off if you consistently do this (especially if you know her/KNOW that sets her off).
honestly? get your butt over her and let’s plot! (imma go make dinner real quick, and in about 45 minutes come back and respond to things!!!!) looking forward to it, guys!
role in president’s club Art expert or translator but if I’m living that AU life then I might as well take on the heavy burden of the freeloader
reason for joining Who doesn’t love a heist? A chummy group of do-no-gooders? An endless supply of lint rollers and poolside daiquiris?
muse’s
character aesthetic Morning whir of the NutriBullet. Bedhead and low-hanging sweatpants. Sociopathy disguised behind an artful smirk. Lukewarm Mexican takeout. Scrolling through an iPhone late (early?) into dawn, sans agenda. Two bouquets of flowers wrapped in last week’s news. The emotion-stifling, fuel-sparking, stomach-lurching whirlwind that accompanies life in the city and every other city at your disposal. Callous biting and nail chewing. Nails scraping down the sternum and down the spine. Crescent moon, fresh night air. Bluetooth headphones on their last leg, battery blinking red. Corner of page 12 folded, never got further than that.
fictional character comparison John Wick (I kid—he wishes!)
trivia Chronic insomniac, habitual lip-biter and lip-licker, and occasional dancer (used to do step). Also, this is exactly how his whale got caught.
because i’m absolute trash i did this whole thing in reverse order...this is my overdue questionnaire!
NAME/ALIAS:
aza (i love it when people can only respond to me with my name in all caps it means i’ve done a good job)
AGE:
23 but i feel old as time
DO YOU HAVE ANY FAVORITE HEIST MOVIES?
the thieves! SO MANY of the ocean’s movies (but 8 specifically)! baby driver (love the soundtrack integration!)! dog day afternoon! OH AND ALSO that part in sense8 when they’re breaking certain members of their cluster out from the gov’t holding facility!!! love me some sense8!
y’all...this got super long so i’m putting it under a read more. i’m so, so, sorry...getting real tired of my own shit fr fr
DESCRIBE YOUR CHARACTER’S AESTHETIC:
sweatpants paired with pumps, stupidly cold days where the sun is bright as shit and you’re hot in the direct sun but so cold in the shade as you’re walking with a jacket on, the cold side of a pillow that you’ve flipped over on a hot night, excessive pillows on a bed, sneakily dumping your shot of baijiu, soju, or vodka down a sink or into someone else’s cup or into your own water cup (more on that below!), the kind of smile where your whole face just goes in on it - HARD - like eyes are just CHEESING and it make you feel good when you get one of those directed at you, hair perpetually down and curled or in a low pony (we ain’t showing no back of the neck for free, y’all!), when your ice cream cone breaks at the bottom but there’s the chocolate there to stop the melted cream from trickling out the bottom (coming in clutch)
IF YOU HAD TO COMPARE YOUR CHARACTER TO ANY FICTIONAL CHARACTER, WHO WOULD YOU PICK?
zhiruo falls a bit under the “lovable alpha bitch” stereotype so if any character i’d say among the lines of galinda/glinda from wicked or even a bit of quinn fabray from glee...during the moments where you didn’t absolutely fucking hate quinn fabray and also the writers for butchering her character/personality from season to season
but mostly glinda vibes. zhiruo’s got lots of character development incoming - stay tuned!
IF YOU WERE IN THE PRESIDENT’S CLUB, WHAT WOULD BE YOUR SPECIALTY?
honestly maybe the getaway driver...i don’t road rage but when someone’s trying to race me i get really competitive and leave them in the dust but DON’T DO THAT KIDS DRIVE AT THE SPEED LIMIT! otherwise personality-wise probably medic 2!!!
WHAT DREW YOU TO THE PRESIDENT’S CLUB?
love, love, love heist movies! also - the canons were all so well thought out and the skeletons for them so varied and wonderful! plus, seeing the faceclaims and variety of muses and muns is so!!! awesome!!!

doesn’t drink. not even socially. has somehow gotten by with getting a club soda and a lime at bars and pretending it’s a vodka soda. OR, getting a shot poured for her and dumping it into her water cup and just never drinking from the water or she’ll get a new one. OR dumping it down the sink when everyone’s knocking it back (if they’re in a kitchen/home) or just generally weaseling her way out of it.
got SUPER FUCKING sick at like 13 and never got out of her head about it. if you can get her to drink you are SOMETHING else then! has been tipsy/drunk a total of like, four times in her lifetime. good luck if this is your muse’s goal. it’s a worthy one but i’ll be hard!
she does have a stress or social cigarette every now and then though. but she IS that bitch that uses a cigarette holder because she doesn’t want her fingertips to smell, especially if she’s handling precious, priceless art soon after.
fucking l o v e s jewlery. like it’s her achilles heel. heels come a close second though
zhiruo’s not married (clearly) but she wear a big ass teardrop diamond (smth like this) on the ring finger of her left hand. started doing this when she was 27 because people kept asking her about it and now when randos ask she just goes ‘we’re very private but i’m very happy.’ less people ask about it now since her reputation kind of precedes her/that basic info is known among her contracts/contact in her professional life BUT in regards to president’s club...will forget it’s there though - at this point it has no meaning it’s just an accessory she constantly wears. so, let the chaos ensue if your muse is like *eyes emoji* who’s the bae?
zhiruo: what
credit where credit is due - came up with this while talking to @prdaimu
hates sandals. hates slides. just doesn’t believe in them. anyone who consistently wears them she’s just *gagging noises* and will refuse to look at them from knee down.
when she’s done with a conversation or completely done with her train of thought she raps her knuckles against the table or any surface she can get a hand on twice
is really insecure about her height (she’s not short, she’s average height....) BUT it’s because her adopted parents are REALLY tall and it’s just become this weird complex even though she doesn’t give shit about anyone else’s height
really has a weird thing for glasses. thinks they’re super cute and attractive
also has a thing for FRAMES. a good frame should compliment an art piece or be virtually unnoticeable. she has many hard opinions on frames so if you want to hear her talk on and on about something she cares about...ask her about the ugly ass frame around the dali piece at the moma in nyc!
Hello little thieves, today I’m bringing you some important news. Before anything, I’d like to announce that THREE more canons have been added to the official list and now you can apply for THE MONEY MAN, THE TRANSLATOR and THE CARD CAPTOR. I’d also like to introduce our official talk tag prclubtalk which you can use if you decide to fill out the little questionnaire below. It’s not mandatory so don’t feel any pressure! Furthermore, the talk tag will from now on be used for all of your creations ( moodboards, edits, memes, anything your heart desires ) and this way, everyone will be able to see your work! I'd like to thank you all for your continuous support and I hope you’ll have a wonderful thursday! - ADMIN FAYE
