biography !

there’s not being good enough, and then there’s never being given the chance, an unremarkable feeling of guilt plagued gwen’s childhood. there was the sad twinge of loneliness when other mothers would come to her elementary classes and prepare snacks for the other children, check them out early, and pick them up for school. her father was the most loving man he could be, hardworking and devoted to his daughter... just not a mother. they lived an otherwise happy life. they lived comfortably but not over the top in a nice apartment. she was not spoiled. she was catered to, but educated on how to be independent and giving. gwen got her first job at an ice cream shoppe when she was sixteen. her father pushed her very hard to do well school.

nothing remarkable every happened to the little family until it all literally blew up. suddenly it was impossible to leave the house without being swarmed by tabloid reporters and paparazzi, all asking her if she had known, how it felt, if she was going to sue. it was a unmitigated disaster. her relationship with her father crumpled, and that feeling of guilt she’d worked so hard to forget swelled. gwen was only ever vaguely aware of the mclaren name -- reality tv had never been her thing, nor her fathers. 

the world became too much.

she moved away, hoping space would make it easier to reconcile with her father, and that the drama would disappear. she’d always been the kind of girl to hide herself away.

personality ! 

gwen now has a new found inability to readily trust others, so it takes her some time to warm up. 

she can be very excitable and quirky. she loves to be goofy. you better keep an eye on her because she can be kind of a prankster. 

she prefers quality over quantity when it comes to friends. 

she has a very giving nature, and would give the shirt off her back for a friend in need. 

she doesn’t avoid parties but she doesn’t go to more than a handful a month. she loves to drink and dance and let go after she’s finished stressful schoolwork. her usual party MO is to hang around her friends, but she’ll seek out those who are sitting on the outside to chat up more often than she would try to involve herself with a large group of people. 

when it comes to sports and debates she can get very heated like, way too fucking fast. (big sore loser.) 

she is the crafty friend, she loves to make things by hand, and little art projects. 

she would prefer to wear sweatpants everyday of her life but will get dressed for certain occasions. class has never been one of them.
