mentions of : infidelity, ankle injury .
before it began with rosey, it all started with her mother. a first generation korean-american, josephyne yang showed exceptional potential in gymnastics after joining an after school team for fun. initially, her parents didn’t see a future for her with sports and the hefty cost of the sport was enough for them to decline further coaching. with push from several coaches, her parents started to take her role in the sport seriously, especially after watching her win first place in a county competition. leftover funds after paying the bills were saved carefully for future lessons, competitions, and trips. by the time she entered her mid teens, josephyne had solidified her position as a potential candidate for the 1988 olympic tryouts. at age 16, she had made a name for herself (think of her as dominique moceanu in the magnificent seven team). she went on to compete in more games for a total of 5 (years 88-98), winning gold in gymnastics each year as a member of team usa. in the middle of all this, she had began dating her coach (who was six times her senior) and had gotten engaged to him right after winning her third game. a year after her engagement, she begins an affair with her teams doctor. unbeknownst to her he was the god asclepius, who had decided to play mortal for a little while. the affair ended up lasting three years, resulting in a surprise pregnancy. she began to grow fearful of ruining her picture perfect life, especially when asclepius wanted to stick around for the birth of their child. instead, she leaves, without so much of a glance. she had fallen in love, and her heart was broken, but her pride would be far more wounded had her affair come to light. she threatens him to stay far away from her and her family, and aslcepius leaves his post a few weeks after failing to convince her to let him stick around.
rosey is born to an olympian on the verge of retiring and becomes the fake child of her mother’s almost husband. josephyne had been able to pass off rosey as being her fiance’s child, which resulted in a quicker marriage. they were able to live life as normally as josephyne could have wanted it. rosey looks too much like her and that’s enough for josephyne, enough for her to believe in her fantasy of a life that she created and play pretend. she retired a little before her daughter’s first birthday, and lived a less high profile life as before after moving to sydney, aus. rosey starts to learn figure skating in preschool, first for fun, but her parents were able to easily spot that with further training and fine tuning, she could be as big as her mother. rosey didn’t mind it much, she was too busy having fun to ever think extra lessons and more days of practice were considered work. her parents start off as her primary coaches, but she starts taking one on one lessons with several high profiled coaches as she grows up, many who were friends of her mother and father. all of a sudden like a shift in the air, her father turns completely cold towards her, and everything goes radio silent between the pair. the family move back to bel air some months after rosey’s 10th birthday.
just like her mother, she earned the youngest spot in team usa for figure skating in 2010. and just like her mother, she brought home gold. by the end, she had been ranked among other young athletes to be on the look out for and had become one of the most talked about new faces at the game. preparing for her next one, all free time rosey had went into rigorous practice, occasionally even being shipped across the globe by her parents to get seasonal lessons from former olympians. during the next game’s tryouts, a fellow potential candidate had begun to shine a little brighter than rosey. she was too consumed in being polished without a flaw in sight, in becoming something larger than life (but like, in an abstract way), and primarily in letting her lifelong hard work be diminished by someone less worthy in her eyes. so when the other girl suffers from an ankle injury after failing to land, rosey’s abilities first show. the look on roselind’s face was probably enough to kill the other girl, but instead she settles for slowing down and completely blocking the healing process of her injury. there’s a bright expression of glee on her features when the other girl has to be disqualified for being unable to complete the rest of the tryouts, and one even brighter than that when rosey’s name appears as a member of team usa once again. for the second time, she brought home a gold. after returning home, she’s on a high unlike ever before. but still, it wasn’t enough for her dad to look at her. rosey understands she’ll never be enough.
her fall from grace starts in two parts, right after winning her last game. the first dive began after she found a pile of love letters between her mother and asclepius (from when her mother went abroad) and her actual birth certificate. after having a meltdown and passing out, rosey confronts her mother in full blown hysterics. she stops talking to both of them a few days after. secondly, she purposefully seeks out the gym owner’s son, with full intentions of getting her famed family kicked out. and it happened, when the owner found the pair in a ... compromising position, and publicly condemned and kicked out the kang’s. in private after, her mother and father both disowned her. asclepius had been popping his head in secretly here and there to keep an eye on his kid despite his former lover’s warnings (not him saying eat shit josephyne). he had taken great notice in the unhealthy environment for his daughter, and a year later, convinced her to leave to a place known as nemean lion. in truth, it didn’t take much convincing. she knew she could never come back to the life she had once known. rosey leaves them a letter as her final goodbye, letting them know she’s retiring from the sport and disappearing forever from them. josephyne and her husband announce resignation publicly and announced their daughter’s choice to live a private life. very quickly, they moved on with their own. she quietly says goodbye to a world she spent her entire life trying to get into and joins into the hero track initially at nl, before switching to the medical track and graduating from it. she currently works in the infirmary and notably is known for taking local calls.
you can call her rosey or lindy, she doesn’t care and won’t bite you, rosey is just the most common. she’s been at nemean lion since the summer of 2015. initially, she arrived and joined the hero track. it made the most sense given her previous accomplishments. during this time, rosey was kind of ... batshit as hell. ( someone: hey rosey do you rmr wh- rosey: click me. ) she was a big BIIIIG party girl, known for squeezing however the hell many people she could at her dorm and staying up till like 2 am on a week day like the menace she was. always had some shit to say. could never just shut the fuck up and not argue honestly. not to sound like bbc sherlock but SHE will try to outlive god in having the last word. also was having hot girl summer 24/7 and it was like a bingo game each week to see where rosey would get caught hooking up with someone this time! she just literally didn’t care and lived each day as a feral animal. and then she started to pay attention to the way the trees would sway and life started to be much more calm for her (aka the entirety of stoned at the nail salon). one day, it wasn’t as intense and she found comfort in the ease. so, without much of a fight, rosey hung up her old life and settled into a much simpler one. graduating from the medical track helped settling into her new life easier, too. she is a general loose mixture of spencer hastings, jane lane (but with daria morgendorffer’s mouth), and rory gilmore. she went from local it girl to wine aunt just like that, and literally carries a wine bag (you know the ones that looked like regular purses but its just a bag of wine....or the comb ones?) with her. she even has one tucked in a drawer in her work desk. never got out of the whole workaholic thing so she still doesn’t understand what a break is? she’s been working since she was like 3 tbh. works the graveyard shift primarily so if she’s not helping someone, she’s napping on an empty bed with the curtains shut, avoiding paperwork by playing harvest moon, or sipping from her purse in a bathroom stall. not laidback necessarily, but definitely too chill (like that meme of the dog in the room on fire kinda vibes). really big sleepy girl energy. low bullshit tolerance so she does bark and bite. takes biweekly pottery and painting (plus wine) courses off campus, and spends most of her time watering her plants or reading manga. eats a lot of tangerines when she’s stressed out. the walking embodiment of earth toned colors. has a pretty thick aus accent and uses sydney slang as if the people around her know wtf she means (unless....? johnnyhairtuck.gif <3). as much as she has grown to consider nl her first home (though she will never admit that), she does have plans to leave at some point??? she wants to move on and do full time work at the places she does local calls for or if she chooses to continue her education elsewhere, she’d join doctors without borders. in the mean time, she is just winging everything.
random plot blurbs :
first friends at nl — would kind of :pleading: emoji for a handful of friends rosey has had since she arrived at nl in 2015. doesn’t matter if they were here before her, same time as her, or after her !!!!! just in a similar age range. they’d still be besties now, just as close despite their busy schedules and still make time for one another <3
best of the bingo hookups — so as mentioned it was like a game of bingo among ppl to see which insane spot rosey would get caught hooking up w someone next ... and u won !
someone who can communicate w plants — listen her entire place and the outside of it is j covered in greenery .. to say she loves gardening and planting is an understatement ... pref demeter / persephone kids 4 this one <3 but she just wants to find out what her plants chat about so she can talk to them when she’s painting and be a part of the convo LOL <3
a rosey stan — someone who recalls her performances at the 2010 & 2014 winter olympics nd became a fan of hers after <3 maybe they r shy to talk to her or go straight up nd ask her abt how she felt doing this move and that !!! she might be secretly completely endeared or want to kick their shin <3
taste tester — another way she deals w stress is baking and ur the person who tastes the stuff she makes . now ur trying a fondant au chocolat at 4 am.

the best job ever — aka pet sitting butter when she has to be away for a few days for a local call <3
mentee — someone who wants to pick up on figure skating and i mean .. who else is there to ask <3 i’m sure she declined at first but now she’s willing to give some lessons whenever she has some free time !!!
tinder date — u both swiped right on each other and have a date in the works <3
former party friends — she occasionally pops into one here and there, but not as much as before !! maybe u were her partner during the times she partied a lot and were a little :/ after she fizzled out the scene or maybe u also left and u two moved onto grandma activities <3
someone from australia — PLEASEEE she will sob about how she misses home .
someone she’s hooking up with that she probably shouldn’t be — the reason why is ufp, but this is so funny 2 me .
children of asclepius — hand it over . she will beat someone up 4 her sibs <3
