VICTORIA 'NETTIE’ DUVAL
Older to Ivy Duval by like a year, so they constantly get mistaken for twins. Her mother’s daughter and very on brand for the Duval woman, Nettie is flighty. She’s living by the skin of her teeth, constantly jumping from opportunity to opportunity. She never really left the Bayou because she fears so many things, even though she lives like she’s got nothing to fear for. Her constantly excitable personality is definitely strange, but not so out of place.
JAXON MONREAU
So he’s your general hardass private eye turned detective JOURNALIST, because he wanted work that was meaningful, while not giving up the comfort of living the shadows. He married Noelle Webber on a drunken whim when he met her in Las Vegas, only to have her be working under him when he joined the newspaper. So, it has been a very confusing while for him in this relationship. Otherwise, the man is quite good at what he does, and the mystery surrounding these murders intrigues him quite a bit! FC TO CHANGE BC IM INDECISIVE AF
GIVE US THREE HEADCANONS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER(s). CAN BE ANYTHING!:
NETTIE:
Much like her sister, Nettie is not sure why her mother called her that, almost questioning if her mother had been sober when she had birthed Victoria. But the name stuck, and she likes it. Almost like she’s built her personality around.
Nettie is a lesbian. She’s known this since she was in high school. She’s dated people, on and off, tried to keep things lowkey and just like her lifestyle, she’s fled the scene as soon as things go a touch too serious.
Contrary to popular belief, Nettie isn’t into drugs. She tried a pill or two in high school and would get high behind the dumpsters at her first job, but other than that, she’s never been one to dilly dally with the dark side. It’s the fear that if she was anything like her mother, perhaps....she doesn’t like to think about that too much.
JAXON:
He doesn’t have parents. They passed away when he was 15, and had been living on his own until that point. The streets, local shelters, wherever he could, till he graduated high school and fled the city. He worked his way through to journalism school.
Living on the streets gave him a sense of justice, of wrongs that needed to be righted and all that good stuff. Even though he doesn’t consider himself to be morally accurate about anything, he does consider if he has a secret bleeding heart underneath it all.
Jaxon doesn’t...well, he doesn’t play will others. He was always a lone wolf, something he was born with. Team work doesn’t make the dream work and in his case, he’d rather not have to talk to people, if he didn’t have to.
WHAT SORT OF PLOTS ARE YOU HOPING TO DO?:
God, I do love sistps, and I'm a sucker for friendships and familial relationships. I'm talking siblings, best girl friends, someone a girl can go and cry to. The good shit.
Jaxon, again, BROMANCES OKAY? I fucking love friendships, cos a guy needs a best friend to be stupid around from time to time.
DID YOUR CHARACTER HAVE ANY RELATION TO ELIZABETH?:
Well, Nettie bartended Elizabeth's favourite haunts and they interacted like regular people have interactions with their bartenders.
Jaxon, on the other hand, has some journalistic integrity and the curiosity of a bloodhound after a chase, so he'd like to think he's intimately acquainted with every player in this game. He doesn’t really know much about anything at all.
WHO DO YOU THINK KILLED ELIZABETH? DO YOU HAVE ANY THEORIES?: Honestly, I'm terrible at whodunnit, and the only way I'd ever figure it out is by watching the mystery play out!
