(to specify: I’ll be physically and spiritually here, but I have a quarter life crisis of my own to navigate, so I’m not sure how helpful I’ll be at legitimately fixing your problem)
Imagine FRIENDS made up of only Rachels, Joeys, and Phoebes during the first few seasons when their careers were way off base, but they’re only dancing in the fountain because they’re drunk in public and motivated to hysterics by millennial pessimism. That is the friend group I want. I want people who have fallen into the trap of dreaming too big for this job market, and whose five year plans are basically “lmao ???”. They’re salaried, they’re working, they might even have big boy/girl apartments, and maybe they’ve swapped their $25 Ikea LACK coffee tables out for something more adult. But that doesn’t change the fact that they’re messes in their marrow, so grateful for the first entry level position tossed their way that they never looked back. And now… it’s a little late to be looking back, now.
The only thing stopping their anguished shrieks during the hours of 9 to 5 is the constant stream of memes in the group chat, and their formidable Tuesday night bar trivia team. Not to mention the warmth they all feel from what goes unspoken: “yeah, I hear you, I feel it too, you’re not being selfish.” Because at the end of the day, they’re a support system for one another, even if they’re more likely to shoot out a few good-natured character assaults than say they care. But then, they do say they care, by signing up as a +1 to your college roommate’s wedding that you can’t bear to attend solo, by showing up at your place unannounced with some Thai food take out, and by decoding your tinder date’s texts to see if he’s a clown. They’re messy alright, and cynical, and maybe a little codependent, but they're yours. At least, they could be.
I was hoping for like 4-5, probs? Bc who can keep track of more friends than that. Should all be in their mid 20s and have their shit no more than 30% together. Don’t necessarily have to hate their jobs, but was hoping to play out the demented reality that despite what we’re told as children most people don’t get to live their dream. Idk idk idk Jack is just a shitbird who is bad at people so I’m just trying to make sure he gets some friends.

okay so i decided to write up a formal req because i'm bored but not bored enough to spend a lot of time on graphics so excuse BUT
this is the alcott family. they are southern imports from savannah, ga. honestly the fam was uprooted pretty early in the kids lives but that didn't stop mama alcott from keeping the southern values and charms and everything else embedded in them. they grew up pretty well off. their father is a pilot, their mom a socialite (from old money) which is code for busybody tbh but she considers herself a ~homemaker. she's never liked hawthorne or boston or massachusetts or anywhere north of the bible belt tbh, but she makes due with what she has. their dad adjusted easier, honestly loves it, and refuses to move back ~home no matter how much his wife might beg. and his love for the red sox only grows every passing day (braves who??).
they were raised to be proper gentlemen and ladies and to this day their parents will take no less from them. go ahead and show up to family dinner in ripped jeans. see what happens. go ahead and cuss in front of them. make their day. go ahead and take a bite before saying grace. guess who's going home hungry? they were also expected to be successful contributing members of society. you went to a proper university with a proper major and there were no ifs ands or buts about it. things were definitely strict when they were growing up but nowadays it's probably more being tsked at 'millenials!' and 'don't make your mama cry' or 'what would your daddy think' all over the place. not like they try and control their kids (much...) anymore or anything.
i didn't really decide how many there would be of them, so i can add more spots if ~needed. probs no more than like 6 or 7 idk. obvs you have free reign over them. like they don't have to be all prim and proper and successful (shame shame!) cause eph certainly isn't. just like i'd prefer nothing completely off the wall... as for ages and genders those are open as well! i'll put up ranges~ to make things easier i guess. i put eph in the middle but doesn't have to stay that way i'm p open! for faces i’d prefer a blonde/blue thing just to be as cliche as possible!!! and for names, they should all be biblical (middle names v traditional as well tbh). and i'd prefer not like mass appeal names a la mark/luke/sarah/etc but more unique like ephraim but not crazy like habakkuk or s/t. imma make a list but you're not held to it if you find something else you like! just get the vibe from em that's fine
first alcott - 34+ - face // open
first alcott - 30-34 - face // open
ephraim john alcott - 29 - armie hammer // kathryn
first alcott - 25-28 - face // open
first alcott - 20-25 - face // open
ah, i’m gonna try and get right to the point. so the daviaus are ridiculously tight knit and have always been that way. their mom works as a morning television host, while their father is ceo of a well-known company. they’re all originally from hawthorne and are pretty wealthy. while their parents will have dinners with them and the occasional family game night from time-to-time, the siblings are a lot closer to each other than their parents and tend to see one another often. They’re all adopted – except the oldest brother – so it would be cool if they were all of different ethnicities . I have most of them as girls, but if you wanted to make one of the sisters a brother/nonbinary, you’re welcome to do what you want.
Anyway, instant message me here or on discord (vigilantea#1652 ) if you’re interested! I love family plots!
--- Daviau (Older brother – 36+)
--- Daviau (Older Sister – 36+)
Claudia Daviau (Second oldest - 36)
--- Daviau ( Second youngest Sister – under 36)
--- Daviau ( Youngest Sister – younger than second youngest)
request one // this request is for my danielle campbell char, janine, she is currently an art student is failing just one class. so in order to pass she started sleeping with the teacher, which as we know is a big no no. the reason being is because she wants her parents to be proud of her and by graduating with top marks they would be. unfortunately she didn’t expect to actually start falling for him so now she is in a bit of a pickle. with how stubborn she is she will definitely try and tell herself that she feels nothing for him but the more time they spend together and sleep together the harder she falls. so what i’m looking for is that teacher. they don’t have to be finals but i want to explore this dynamic they would have. everything else about him is open though. i do have some face suggestions but if they don’t float your boat then just run the face by me. nathaniel buzolic (bc kolvina), misha collins, steven r mcqueen, william moseley or chris pine. again up to you if you choose one of these or someone else.
request two // also for janine, her older sister. the one person in the world she is envious of. growing up these two were very close but as the years went on, janine started noticing that their parents favored her more. this made janine very self concious and she started to somewhat loathe her sister. she ended up pulling away from her and made it her mission to prove that she is someone also. her sister had always been the poster child of perfect. perfect grades, sense of style, mannerisms, just all around perfect and janine was always left in the shadows. even while the were in school, if someone hung out with janine it was usually just so they could hang out with her sister. so having her sister come in would be amazing because janine would be so bitter and ruthless to her because she still thinks that everyone prefers her instead. everything about her is open though. i was thinking the face could be shelley hennig bc they could pass as siblings but it’s totally up to you.
request three // this last one is for cleo evans (holland roden) it’s pretty simple though. just someone that she has been having an on and off again “no strings attached” relationship with. cleo is definitely not ready to settle down plus she also lives on the motto “i don’t need a man” so theres that. mostly she just likes to have fun but with someone she knows and can trust. if that makes any sense. fully open though same with face can be new or existing just let me know :)
Anyway, Claudia (Gal Gad/ot fc) is roommates with the father of her daughter. They have an on again off again relationship, because neither of know what they want from each other. For a short period of time they were engaged, but Claudia called it off after discovering she was pregnant. She never told the guy, but he eventually found out through one of her sisters. He wasn’t very happy with her, but he tried to lend a helping hand whenever he could. The issue was, they both lived states apart and he rarely got to see their daughter. Due to some personal stuff Claudia moves back to Massachusetts. Originally she planned to live with one of her sisters, but her ex basically brought up them living together so that he could see their daughter more often. She accepts the invitation, but she’s still a little confused about where they stand.
I like to keep my requests open-ended, so face claims and personality are totally up to you. Basically I want a will they won’t they thing going on between them and roommate shenanigans.
Im me if interested. Or add me on discord: vigilantea#1652
