[dravcnlea-blog]

Hey guys I’m MJ, I’m super excited to rp with you all! Even though this intro won’t show up in the tag yet I’m going to post it anyway. 

Juliet’s parents were both doctors and were away a lot so she was mostly raised by her nanny 

Her parents expected her to follow in their footsteps and pursue medicine but she discovered psychology and fell in love with it. 

After high school, she went to NYU and that was where she met her future wife. 

They got married after Juliet finished her PH.D and were driving to San Diego to start the next chapter of their lives when they ended up in Boot Hill. 

Juliet got a job at the Amen County General Hospital as a Clinical Psychologist and she loves her job and is so excited to go to work everyday. 

She is one of the most selfless people you will ever meet and will literally spend hours of her time trying to help someone else, even if she’s tired and just wants to go home. 

She’s also a massive nerd, she reads a lot and finds maths fun ?? 

She’s kind, caring and super empathetic, like she’ll have to hold back her own tears if one of her clients is crying. 

But she’s also possessive of the people she cares about and can get a little jealous if her friends/family are hanging out with other people. 

Juliet is also super competitive and for that reason most people who know her will refuse to play games with her. 

Wanted Connections (hmu if you want to fill any of these)

Forced smiles - Someone who Juliet can’t stand. They are complete opposites and every time they speak Juliet gets mad for no reason. But she has to tolerate them because she sees them around Boot Hill quite a bit. 

Like family - Someone who Juliet has basically adopted as a younger sibling. She looks out for them and makes sure that they are okay and is always there when they need to talk. 

Two peas in a pod - Juliet’s closest friend. They would have met at either her work or in the Midtown neighbourhood and they have been really close ever since. 

Hi, I’m Dr Avonlea, come on in - Her clients. They can come see her about anything and everything and she will always listen.

hi friends !! it’s lucia, your resident mom friend, back with kimberly feng, chaotic mess of a human being. for the new people, i also play neve ( emergentias ) and joey ( amaniitas ). below the cut are some fun facts about kim feng, which i wish i would’ve hired lucky to ghost write in the style of a drunk history episode.

trigger warnings, these subjects are not expanded upon in this li’l intro, but they are mentioned and include: parent death, murder, death, gore, mental health, infidelity, age gap, and poor parenting choices.

kim was born in china, came to canada after her father died. she’s always resented her mother for leaving china and leaving her paternal grandmother there. it didn’t help that her mother married some dbag lit professor and then dropped out to have the perfect family. eventually grandma comes to stay with them for awhile.

life with a lit professor and english major mother was tough for kim who has the adhd and the dyslexia, and tbh instead of really investigating into why she had such a hard time in school, they attributed it to her behavioral issues. when kim caught her stepdad cheating with another one of his graduate ta’s she smashed his car with her skateboard. after that? they sent her grandma back home to focus on kim’s behavioral issues WHICH DID NOT GO WELL. 

instead kim leaves, eventually bouncing or bartending, joining various punk bands that go nowhere. she tries to save up the money to buy her own bar, falls in love with another brand of dbag that cheats on her and is quite pressed. she discovers them and throws the takeout bag of hamburgers at them and a bottle near them ( without like intent to harm, just with intent to smash things(tm) ). then she packs up all her shit and leaves.

on the road, she tries to get a flight to china by way of la, but picks up some like anarcho-crust punk hitchhikers and their dog, thinking it’ll be a good time ... it is not a good time. it is a very bad time and they plot to kill her and take her stuff, so she kills them right back ! but uh oh, their dog is left behind and now she can’t go to lax so now she has a stupid dog named grandpa ( she’s a cat person ) and drives to phoenix to pick up a flight there before someone realizes ... that she’s left quite a mess in her wake. queen of bad choices(tm). 

now she’s laying low in boot hill, working at the moonlite drive in and coyote’s howl and trying to stay out of trouble, but .... kim feng is a trouble magnet, so. she’s bound to be as lucky as frank castle at living a normal life.

shit, i forget that writing a bio always goes hand in hand with an intro for that muse ( well, i guess it doesn’t have to, but anyway ) and i’m the worst at writing them !! where’s lucky when i need her ?? this is luz ! she’s an archaeologist who’s here helping take care of her moms’ restaurant los gatos locos taqueria while her stepmom fights breast cancer. luz is an archaeologist working on finishing her doctoral thesis, the interim owner of los gatos for her moms, and a mother whose daughter is halfway across the world ( and luz can never leave ! how will she ever be reunited with her baby ?! see wanted connections ). she’s super into basketball and food. she’d the resident jock girl next door. she works out a lot ! idk what else to tell u ! 

[rcmemberwake]

hey it’s ya boy, skinny penis back @ it again with another shit kid. This is Truman. He’s an old washed up grump that everyone probably vaguely recognizes but not really because he’s so far past his prime. Again most of this shit is in his BIO.

Truman used to be big & famous in the horror scene and his name was pretty much synonymous with good horror but well...look who crashed and burned

He’s so offended that people don’t remember 20 year old movies honestly

He’s most proud of his work on a movie that totally isn’t inspired by Discount Rocky Horror where he’s rocky.

Has fragile masculinity and tbh...is just a slut for horror? like all he wants is to be dunked waist deep in fake blood and scream in latin for views

You know what he’s so fucking defensive of his career it’s pathetic. You’re allowed to admit that maybe the twist was a little obvious, Truman.

In general he’s just...trash? A total grump. Hates millennials. Drinks his coffee black like a monster.

He’s currently a slut for southbound as a whole? Liek he digs teh weird supernatural stuff so hard.

and yes he still has a very active social media presence because...he tries to hard?

HEADCANONS.

He pronounces “actor” in that stereotypical theatrical way like “act-torrr” and its so cringy.

He was so openly gay in hsi career and the media just...didn’t get it. He had a friend, who was also an actor (but you know, successful long term) who worked with him constantly. Truman was very clear that this was because he just had a huge crush on him and the media was like “aw cute friends”!

He’s a dom i don’t make the rules sry boys

highkey he just...adores scaring people idk why

currently trying to write a book! or a play! he doesn’t know. its not going well tbh.

He has this who stunt where he fucks with his fans online and goes “lol yeah i’m actually an (insert supernatural creature)” and tbh. a lot of believers follow him.

WANTED CONNECTIONS.

Fan — someone who knows everything there is to know about Truman’s work. someone has to jerk his ego

The other Actor — a guy who was famous alongside Truman. They did they same niche of movies and he 100% knew Truman had a crush on him. Would put gay scenes in the script to get Truman to join cause he wanted to work with his bud.

Fellow Artists (tm) so he can Lament over the Terrors of being an Artist Woe is He

[autumndear]

hello hello !! it’s lucky back at it again !! i j wanna preface this by saying my last intro was compared to drunk history and i was also asked if i was drunk when i wrote it ( but in the nicest way y’all ). i wasn’t that time. i’m still not that drunk, but ya girl a little tipsy. there’s the answer 2 future questions. ONTO THE SHIT THAT MATTERS:

disclaimer: honestly everyone involved in mommie dearest ( 1978 / 1981 ) cld totally sue me for this.

background.

triggers: child abuse, mention of illness and death, brief mention of infidelity

ya girl is too invested in classic era hollywood and she hates herself for it so that said autumn’s mother, not based off of joan crawford just set in a slightly different time period, was pretty much considered one of the last greats. as a part of the patty duke/sharon tate/etc. generation when paparazzi were just beginning to get involved in personal live ( we stan elizabeth taylor for this ), she was pretty much... as i said... one of the last classic actresses

and she KNEW IT!!

irene caeden was a hoe for publicity. although never confirmed nor denied, autumn has always highly suspected the only reason irene adopted her was to make her look good.

autumn was made to call irene “Momma Hen” what do u mean mommie dearest?

that said, irene wasn’t... a good mom... honestly at the beginning, her intentions were pure. however, as autumn began growing up and learning how to be more resistant, irene began worsening her punishments

“y’ain’t gonna keep racing me until u win?? ok ig i can lock u up if u want me too....”

“y’ain’t gonna keep playing this game of strategy against me until u win?? ok ig i can force u 2 stay up all night and day staring at that board not sleeping with a surveillance camera placed right by u.”

“y’ain’t gonna finish ur meal? fine. starve.”

irene could have the best night of her life. she could win an oscar for best lead/best supporting and just be in a total state of euphoria which would pass to autumn. then she would find one thing wrong in autumn’s room in an attempt to reminisce and all hell would break loose.

that’s when the abuse that one typically associates the word with begins – when all hell breaks loose after reminiscing. 

then her mother would grow irrationally paranoid over something that didn’t exist – usually a stain because we’re not original – and would force autumn to work on it with her. she cleaned her rooms perfectly. there was no stain. but she helped her mother, now vulnerable for some reason, nonetheless.

their best moments of connection were when irene was putting autumn through hell, because she was going through her own.

that’s fucked!!

naturally, the older she got, the worse their battles became.

when she graduated high school, she was proposed to by a young man named charlie (i accidentally called him mark once in the biography oh my god i hate myself). she planned to move in with him and begin studying away from home. 

irene didn’t like this plan. she made sure a tempting young woman introduced herself to charlie and and proceeded to seduce him.

charlie took the bait.

when autumn and charlie broke everything off, her mother reminded her that she always knew best!! (ok to be fair... he did cheat ok we’ll give her that even if she set it up he still cheated by his own volition) 

still, autumn wanted to leave the horrible environment, the only good people in her life being the live-in maid and nanny. unfortunately, irene is a very good actress.

irene told autumn that she had been dropped by her studio and that her contract had been lifted – that she was back where she started and didn’t know where to go, financially or career-wise. 

ultimately, she manipulated autumn into staying.

their battles continued to grow up until irene fell fatally ill. autumn took a sort of sadistic pleasure in watching her mom slowly deteriorate,,, and tbh she hated herself for it but,,,

their shared fear made them connect over it.

when she died, autumn was essentially the only person at the funeral who knew her for her. irene had always complained about people loving the idea of her, but not her – the only valid complaint she’d ever made. autumn wished she could’ve been that person, but she was essentially just like every other person there.

when she learned she’d literally inherited zero (0) in the will except for an acknowledgement of all the ‘lessons’ irene had taught her, she decided she would get the last word by writing a tell-all mommie dearest who.

following the book’s success, she decided she didn’t want to live a life of fame and harassment. she moved to boot hill and thought she could become a brand new person!!

-kathy bates vc- LIIIIEEES -end vc-

-marina and the diamonds vc- liiiEEEeesssss -end vc-

working at the funeral home (we stan) reminded her of her past, present, and future. 

marrying the local pastor, a horrible match for her, echoed charlie.

having to be the stern parent of three children reminded her of her own mother.

AND BOY HOWDY THERE IS NOTHING SHE FEARS MORE THAN WINDING UP LIKE HER MOTHER!!

ofc she’s convinced if she ever even shows signs, the one good thing about her marriage to gabe is that he would intervene.

wow i should be ernest hemingway my intros are so much... less drunk sounding than they are when i’m 110% sober.

personality.

wine mom. lives for the gossip. basically helen lovejoy from the simpsons.

a lot more serious than ophelia (in part bc she’s never high lbr). she generally understands situations much better and actually... gauges them appropriately.

has a compassionate side. although she’s largely rational, she is quick to recognize emotion and act. 

has to be the stern parent out of her and gabe. she doesn’t know why they continue having children. they have no passion and she’s afraid she’ll wind up being like her mother.

sad bitch bad bitch (tbh ophelia too but)

honestly the epitome of almost every single lily allen song.

we stan.

wanted connections.

considering i can only come up with unique connections when i have a theme going (like classic movie lines for ophelia’s), i can’t think of anything very unique, but:

someone she cheats on gabe with (gender doesn’t matter)

friends?

people she gossips with/wine buddies

???????

STAY TUNED!!

and then we also love brainstorming.

N E WAY. LIKE THIS OR HMU IF U WOULD LIKE 2 PLOT !!

hey, y’all. i’m rory and this is my sinful bean by the name of nate who’s gonna ruin your lives. and you’ll probably let him. the intro posted on southboundhq covered everything so this’ll just be a couple of tid-bits of what to expect from nate. if you’d like to plot with him, hmu in the im’s!

tw: crime, murder, sex mention, etc.

nate here grew up in an abusive househome with little to no love at all so don’t expect him to be all sunshine and rainbows

he’s a fuckboy who likes to have sex

has probably fucked your girlfriend without your knowledge (or maybe to your knowledge, nate doesn’t care)

is bi-curious and will flirt with a dude if necessary to get what he wants

before moving to boot hill, he was a big drug dealer who was nearly assassinated and went to boot hill to hide

he’s killed people before and it still haunts him.

sudden movements make him jumpy... and homicidal

did i mention he’s a fuckboy?

has a bit of stealing problem

works at the auto shop as a cover and also because he really likes cars
