tl;dr
born in a world of old money and privilege, berenice has grown in a world of men, and found that she was more brilliant than all of them. manipulative and ambitious, she always found ways to turn situations to her advantage. most of the time, that meant seducing them into giving her what she wanted. born from less than ideal parents, she found that she always had to fight to gather everyone's attention. her parents a british politican and an american newscaster, britain and american both have seen her grow up. she enjoyed the attention, played them to put her best self forwards always. she moved to the states at one point to go into law school - made sure to join one school in a town where her background wouldn't make waves.
easier this way to have a bit of fun, there's way assumptions on her. a fresh market, one could say.
three years ago, she moved by home to britain and dabbled in political law. when her client got roped into a big scandal, and that her own marriage with a rugby player ended because of his involvement with another starlet, she dipped. she refused to let this mess stain her dress, and came back to the states in order to find success once more.
get to know the girl a little bit more;
she has a very distinct perfurme, the i guerlain shalimar, making sure that people can not only see her. but they can tell she's been here just by her odour alone.
jamie was a dear friend and an absolute good lay. they laughed, they had fun, they slept together more times that she could recount. at the end of the day, she still remembers he was a friend. they found each other corporally and perhaps she was a bit jealous when he moved on and got himself a girlfriend, but she was happy for him. for sure, she was. and if they continued flirting after that in dark rooms, away from pyring eyes...well, no one saw them, right? his death did affect her, but she tried to use it as a motivation to get the fuck out of minnesota as soon as she could and do her own thing.
she's always smirking, always flirting with everyone in the room sometimes it's serious, some other time it's not. who's to know? definitely not you.
everything about her exudes luxury, from her perfume to her shoes to the designer dress she's wearing. her favourite colour to wear is white. because yes, she's that presumptuous.
she has three brothers, who she considers as dumb as the other. they're mostly in politics, some in finance. she doesn't care about them because most of the inheritance came to her when their father died (yes, she did have a look at that will before his death).
she has a lot of charisma, she likes playing with people, flirting and dancing and one night stands. she is absolutely not one for commitment.
especially not since her marriage ended with her husband cheating on her (the ultimate insult). she vows to destroy everything he is, but for now, she's licking her wounds in NYC.
her first marriage, around eight years ago, ended up lasting only six months - the man had died in a car crash. berenice wasn't quite devastated. not enough.
she will absolutely tell you that your current wife/husband of 20 years is not good enough for you and you should let loose. by getting it on with her.
she enjoys art, old movies, going to clubs, winning in court, splurging, going to the races and the casino, going to the spa, getting massages, etc etc etc...
Some ideas for connections: (click the links for the song inspo!)
one bestie - that person and berenice kept contact after university and through thick and thin, managed to keep being friends. they are probably one of the two people on earth who has ever seen berenice a bit vulnerable. (0/1)
rivalry is not dead - they're rivals. they hate each other. in everything thing they did, they always tried to one up the other. berenice likes this relationship very much because it's fun and entertaining. also is there a...tension there? fun! (0/1)
with a little help from my friends (or acquaintances, colleagues, old schoolmates, etc) - they've known each other for awhile now, their interactions pleasant most of the time. berenice is a fun person to be around and she'll be your best wingwoman if you let her. (0/?)
will they won't they - listen. berenice is known for flirting with everyone and everything, nothing stops her. nothing beside that person. there's something there, a few smiles, hidden away. they might have something during university but they never acted on it. shame. (0/1)
battle of the exe(s) - to add to the list of her numerous exes! it is a privilege club, though being an ex-partner is less expensive than being an ex-husband...she knows a thing or two about divorce law. (0/?)
you broke my heart, b****h - that person probably knows way too much about berenice and berenice hates this. she dared being a bit too vulnerable with that one person but something pulled them apart. now, if berenice can ignore them forever, the better. (0/1)
friends with benefits, but without the friend part - listen, it's fun, it's easy. there's no emotions here, nothing. they're both closed off and they promised each other to stop if they ever got into any feelings. there aren't any, right? right. (0/1)
please if you have any other ideas let me know!
