hi my little babies !! my name s tea & i am hella late to the intro party. i’m nineteen and i go by she/her pronouns, and i reside on the west coast of the crappy united states. this is my new muse (and my lil baby, shay) -- jade celestine !! below i will add a few notes about her and if you want to, don’t be afraid to hmu for plots or if you have any wc that haven’t been filled!

jade grew up in oakland, california with six other family members -- her mother, three sisters, and two brothers. her childhood wasn’t so great, but she always tried to make the most of it with her being the third oldest. she was raised to be strong and be a role model for her younger siblings. her father wasn’t in her life at all after he was faced with multiple drug charges when she was eight, having to serve twenty-five years to life.

her mother made it work, though. she took on long hours at the luxurious hotels, cleaning, while being able to put food on the table and keep a roof over their head. when jade was thirteen her mom had settled down with a younger man, who she could tell was no good, and he eventually ended up being moved into the house after a few short months. with promises to move away into a better neighborhood and home, her mom was hooked and hopelessly in love with him.

it wasn’t until one night that jade’s life would change for the worst. her mother’s boyfriend had ran with the wrong crowds, and some unknown people pulled up on the side of his car at a traffic light and fired multiple gunshots into the vehicle. unbeknownst to them, there was a mother in the passenger seat, and both jade’s mom and her  the scene.

after that, most of the kids, minus her two older brother and sister, and including jade, were put into foster care. luckily, they all ended up with her mother’s sister and her family.

jade ended up becoming distant towards everyone around her, with a few friendships and relationships here and there. but her main focus was to build an empire and make her mother proud.
