abrielle mcdougall ( kathryn newton. twenty eight. er resident at cider point general hospital. )
"guess it depends on the shot potentially being bought," abby spoke in between puffs from her own cigarette. she too had been too lazy to realize she was down to the last few of her own pack, unsure of she was feeling nice enough to help out the other. dangling the smoke in between her fingers, she pauses for a moment as she looked down at the remaining two cigs that could be given to luca. "do you know what the magic words are?"
"yeah, i don't know about that," abby raised a thick brow to the other. one thing that the girl had never quite mastered was the art of small talk. she either didn't know the right words to say or would ramble, all ending up with looking awkward as ever. "i have two left feet and honestly? i can't say i'm on the side of tiktok with all the trending dances. i don't even think free dinner and drinks would tempt me."
"Spring has officially sprung!" Sloane leans on the counter that holds the register, drumming her fingers on the surface. She notices the polish chipping off one of her nails, and inwardly groans. "Which is like... so totally wonderful, because we've just gotten in our new seasonal drinks!" She pastes on the smile, but even she's annoying herself this morning. "We've got a jazzy little maple number with syrup straight from Vermont. The most divine strawberry matcha. Oh! And my personal favorite. A carmalized banana latte. It's beyond." Sloane blinks, eyes back on the customer. "What can I getcha'?"
truth be told, abrielle had never been huge on coffee. if she was going to have it, it mostly came from the basic and shitty coffee machines at whatever hospital she was having a clinical rotation at. she much preferred to get her caffeine fix from a crisp diet coke or an energy drink. but, she had been curious if coastal coffees had change at all since she's been gone. "um, do you recommend something a little less ... out there? the strawberry matcha sounds interesting, i think a co-worker of mine might dig that...?"
âoh,â abby replied in a low voice. how was it humanly possible for him to still have some of her things? she was almost positive he had returned almost everything? it left her a bit confused, but she tried to look past it. âokay, you can ⊠come in if youâd like? itâs a little messy in here, just ignore it,â she waved her hands awkwardly as she opened the door further for the boy. she was still getting used to the hectic schedule of a resident, needing to find the time to keep her place tidy and organized.
to be honest, she never expected to see abby again. not that she doesnât want to, but between everything that went down and with her still seeing august, she knows it probably  wouldnât end well. besides,  the  last  time  she  heard  abby  was  still  in  new  york,  so  she  isn't  quite  sure  what  to  make  of  the  situation.  when the initial shock fades, a small smile tugs at her lips, and vada gathers the courage to  meet the other womanâs gaze. " abby, hey, " she blurts  out, unsure how to even talk to her anymore. thereâs a pause that stretches too long, the kind that twists her stomach into  knots,  prompting  her  to  speak  again. " fuck, sorry. i was just â i didnât realize you were back in town. itâs been a while, huh? "
abby is quick to recognize the voice that is attempting to call her. she was just trying to mind her own business, getting back to her place at electric avenue. turning around, she faces the other blonde and simply gives a poker face. feeling a lump in the back of her throat forming, she nodded ever so slightly. âum, yeah it has,â she spoke out, not realizing just how long sheâd been away from the small town. âiâve⊠been back for a little bit.â
abby had just recently gotten over a shift at the hospital, beyond exhausted and ready to unwind and be around nobody else but herself. her plans for the night? get out of these scrubs and curl up with a cup of instant spicy ramen. what she wasn't planning on doing tonight? opening up the door to see her ex - husband standing in front of her. she clearly had to be dreaming, right? this was some sick, twisted joke that the universe was playing on her?
holding in her breath, she tries not to look completly shocked and caught off guard. "august .... ," she muttered out. "what are you doing here?" the blonde questioned.
do you hear IRONIC BY ALANIS MORISSETTE playing? oh, that must be ABRIELLE âABBYâ MCDOUGALL breezing by. i donât know if you recognize them, but they look like KATHRYN NEWTON to me. i heard that SHE has been in town for HER WHOLE LIFE (ON AND OFF) , which is crazy considering they are 28 years old. yeah, they live over on ELECTRIC AVENUE, and i heard that they work as a RESIDENT AT CIDER POINT GENERAL. i love that they remind me of PERFECTLY WINGED EYELINER, EMPTY BOTTLES OF REDBULL, BLONDE HAIR IN A MESSY CLAW CLIP, THE SMELL OF LAVENDER AND CIGARETTES, LACE AND LEATHER, but ⊠ugh, their playlist is so weird. why is BREATHE (2AM) (muse b ), DONâT SPEAK ( muse a), and HOT & SEXY ( muse b ) in the queue?

MINI BIO.
abby grew up in a family dynamic that was always less convential than others. the product of a young relationship and unexpected pregnancy, her parents were the type of couple who should have never gotten together, nor start a family together.
always residing in the more poor parts of cider point, it was never out of the ordinary for her parents to always been strapped for cash, constantly stressing about bills and the like. that was often the cause for arguments amongst the couple, them very much being hot and cold than a happy, nuclear family. it eventually got to a point where abby's mom was tired of her husband, ditching town without so much of a goodbye to her child.
( tw for mentions of alcholism ) once her dad had become a single father, he was quick to spiral into a dark place. a young abrielle was often left at home by herself, a complete latchkey kid while her dad went off on benders, becoming cider point's bum.
her dad ended up being arrested for a dui while driving with abby in the back seat, he swerved and hit a parked car. being deemed unfit to take car of her, custody was given to her grandmother when she was eleven while he was put behind bars for his rap sheet of a record.
despite having quite the chaotic childhood, abby's grandma stepped up to provide a loving, calm, safe enviornment for the girl ... something she never really had before.
during her youth she struggled with making genuine friendship and connections with others. always being known as the weird, quiet girl with the colorful homelife. one person who didn't seem to judge her for her dark choice of clothing, makeup, and music was august alpert. the goofy kid who never seemed to shut up and say the stupidest jokes was one of the few people that she could connect with. an innocent, childhood friendship blossomed into something much stronger over the years as they become a couple, head over heels for one another.
after graduating high school, their families swore up and down how stupid of an idea them getting married was. abrielle was stubborn and didn't care about anyone's opinion, she wasn't going to end up like her parents. even though she was young, she knew that august was the one she wanted for the rest of her life.
(tw for infidelity ) life in new york was sweet until it quickly turned sour. after hearing the news of his infidelity, it felt like a gut punch. completely and utterly heartbroken, she cut off all contact with the boy and dove head first into continuing with completing her degree. her education had always been very importaant to her, the one thing she knew that wouldn't mess her up or leave.
the years went on, working her ass off at nyu and graduating under graduate and medical school. on the surface, it seemed like she was thriving in the big city, knowing that keeping her distance from her home town was probably for the best. deep down, the scars of her first love still seemed fresh.
( tw for cancer ) the newely graduated abby had plans of starting her residency at one of the big name hospitals in nyc. but, the news of her grandma's unfavorable diagnosis lead her to moving back home to massachusetts.
abby has been back in cider point for a few months now, attempting to adjusting to small town life again. all while juggling an er residency, being a care taker for her grandmother, and seeing familiar faces once more.
OTHER FUN FACTS.
she recalls first wanting to persue a degree in medicine after binge watching greys anatomy when she was younger. she thought cirstina yang was an absolute icons.
god, she hates mornings, much more of a night owl tbh
she would do people's homework (mostly science related assignments) growing up to make extra $$$
loves loves expressing herself through her makeup and hair. she is known for her perfectly winged eyeliner, dark eyeshadow, and overall spooky, ghotic baddie vibe.
is such a type b resident doc !!!! she doesn't pack her lunch half the time, thriving on vending machine snacks and getting verbal report. but, she is a damn good resident and is not afraid to stick up for herself and her patients.
some of her favorite artists/bands are fleetwood mac/stevie nicks, avril lavigne, my chemical romance, ozzy osbourne, led zepplin, and alanis morissette.
cat person <3
big fan of sour candy over sweet.
lowkey people probably think she is like a witch or vampire .... perhaps?
extroverted introvert??? she is kind of the type of person who can (fake) having conversation with almost anyone but due to her resting bitch face, she can seem a bit standoffish. she has her lil' inner circle of pals and she's cool with that. she also loves her alone time and needs it to decompress.
generally, she is used to being alone and being her own support system in a really sad way /:
sadly a chronic smoker :( she loves that morning cigarette so bad
