you already know the deal, here’s his wiki lmao

after losing his parents, all steve ever wanted was to make them proud. to make the same sacrifices they did, and be as brave as they were. so much so that he put his life and freedom on the line by lying on enlistment forms and attempting to join the military despite several bad health conditions. 

eventually steve volunteered for project ‘rebirth’ and received the super soldier serum, becoming the world’s first known super human. however his abilities still weren’t enough at first. steve had to prove himself when his best friend went missing behind enemy lines and he was the only one willing to step up and save him and the other men. because of this he was able to prove that he’s more than a face to sell bonds, and steve was given his own task force and ran numerous operations during world war ii, during one of which his best friend bucky fell to his death.

and the rest is history, steve was declared lost in action when he was forced to crash land an enemy plane in the middle of the ocean and for years captain america was no more. 

when steve came out of the ice, it was the early two thousands and the world was a much different place. he had to adjust to a whole new way of life, and eventually let go of every piece of the past that made him who he was. 

and then steve found out that bucky, a very big piece of who he is, was still alive. it gave him hope -- and he wanted his best friend back despite knowing bucky was not who he used to be either. he put his reputation on the line this time, even going against government wishes to keep bucky from being wrongly accused of murder. eventually steve was forced to go on the run, leaving bucky in the care of wakanda and settling down in ivywood. 

and he’s been here ever since, or so he thinks. steve doesn’t mind ivywood, he got a job as a personal trainer and really enjoys helping people out in that way. he obviously misses his friends dearly, but steve knows that if he were to come out of hiding there would be consequences. 

basically, steve doesn’t remember anything after avengers: civil war. he thinks that he came to ivywood to lay low for a while after the way things went with the sokovia accords and that he’s been here ever since.

tw mentall illness, death, physical & mental abuse

buckle up this boy is a mess. danny is from doncaster england, so yes he’s got a ridiculous sounding thick ass accent but we love him anyways. he’s a proud brit, and since most of his family still lives in england he visits often. or at least he used to.

danny has a little sister who he’s very close with. the only person that he gives a shit about, is what he’ll say if you ask about her. they’re irish twins, so from the very beginning they were inseparable. danny’s father passed away when he was six years old, and his mother kind of went off the deep end. though it’s undiagnosed, it’s always been quite obvious to danny that his mother struggles with her mental health. she is bipolar, but refuses to acknowledge it or seek help in any way. when their father passed she drank a lot, spent days and sometimes even weeks laying in bed 24/7 and not doing anything. so the jones’ children learned to fend for themselves. 

he cared for his little sister as much as he knew how, tried his best to keep her having a happy and normal childhood. eventually their mother somewhat recovered and when they were threatened with their home being taken away, she tried to get a job. for a couple of years things were okay. his mother still wasn’t completely there, but she was at least getting out of bed. she soon met a man who danny quickly grew to hate. his name was jeff and it was clear to everyone except his mother, the man was a selfish asshole. he moved into their house just weeks after the two met and took over, something danny had a very hard time with.

the man was disrespectful, to his mother and his sister -- and danny didn’t stand for it. he often fought with jeff. one night the old man came home wasted and screamed at his mom for not having dinner already made and ready. danny lost it and screamed back, threatening jeff and all kinds of things. the older man lost his temper and slapped danny. and from then on, things just got worse. 

jeff would come home drunk, say some stupid shit to danny’s mother and/or sister, danny would stand up for them, and jeff would take it all out on him. whether it was physically or mentally, danny took the brunt of jeff’s anger. for years things stayed that way. danny begged his mom to leave jeff, but she ended up marrying him instead. with the man as his step dad it was even harder to escape his terror. 

the only thing danny ever had to escape was music. he would put in his headphones to take away the pain of the life he’d been dealt. he wrote songs and music, and one day dreamed of getting the hell away from his home and playing shows around the world. but with a reputation like danny’s, that was all he ever thought it would be -- a dream. 

his bad behavior was not strictly at home. the attitude he had at home followed him to school, where he would often disrupt class, disrespect teachers, fight with other students, etc. by the time he was in secondary school danny had been kicked out of 3 schools. the only good thing about his reputation was that people left his little sister alone.

after he finished school danny wanted to pursue music, despite his step dad assuring him it was a waste of time. it’s all he ever wanted to do, so he tried anyways. would take trains into london and busk on the streets in an attempt for someone to hear him -- anyone to give him a chance to escape. 

one morning as he was leaving danny got into an argument with jeff about the fact that he wasn’t ‘contributing’ to the household now that he was out of school. danny lost it and fought back, and in the end the old man left. thinking his mother would be thrilled danny told her the news, but she took it much worse than he anticipated. she got angry, screamed and yelled and cursed at him to get out of their house and never come back. so danny packed a bag and left. 

for a while he stayed with friends, and even attempted to make up with his mother and step father. but it didn’t work out. danny was homeless at 19, used the last of his cash to buy a train ticket to london. he’d been busking for days in the cold england winter, but then everything changed. noah jackson just so happened to be in town that day, and he heard danny playing in the streets. he took a video and sent it to his older brother and then offered to buy danny lunch. there he poured his heart out to noah, knowing this was the one chance he was going to get. 

a few months later danny signed with jackson records, and shortly after that he moved to ivywood specifically to work with noah. he was happy to leave his shitty life behind, though he does miss seeing his sister every day. the two are still close and talk/facetime very often. danny lives and breathes music and the fact that he gets to actually do what he’s always wanted to is insane to him. it’s the one thing in his life that has always been consistent and kept him happy when he didn’t feel like he ever could be. 

because of the intense abuse he suffered from as a child, danny is quite rough around the edges. he doesn’t let people in easily, and even then most of the time he only lets them in as much as he wants. he’s not sure anyone truly knows him. to the public he’s unapologetically himself, because when it comes to music he can turn it all off and focus on that. off stage he’s very different, a lot more closed off an ingenuine. 

danny has undiagnosed adhd, though it’s pretty obvious that he suffers from it. he is extremely impulsive and often does things without thinking about any possible consequences, hence why he’s never had a good break up. he grew up fighting, so he learned how to cut deep and it’s something he still does, sometimes without even thinking.

danny loves to go out and have a good time. he’s a doncaster boy through and through, always up for a little party. though he does get even more loud and obnoxious when he’s drunk, and good luck understanding him.

mostly likely due to the homelessness he had to deal with, danny loves his apartment. at the end of a great night, the thing he looks forward to most is the warm bed he gets to come home to, and the roof over his head.

about

tw anxiety, death

ryan grew up in portland oregon, with an older sister and two older brothers. her parents were both artists, so creativity was always encouraged in her house. ryan took up painting at a young age, which her parents were thrilled about. she would go to galleries and shows with her father, it was something the two really bonded over.

at a young age ryan was diagnosed with severe anxiety. she suffers from really bad panic attacks. she’s been on medication and going to therapy for years, but like with most mental illnesses, she still has her bad days. she’s a generally nervous person anyways, always thinking a mile a minute. her brain never slows down, and sometimes she has a hard time just shutting up and relaxing.

by the time ryan was in high school all of her siblings were in or already out of college. she would go to parties with her older sister and sneak out after curfew. mostly little things that most teenagers do, but it only took one time of her parents catching her for them to really crack down on it. 

ryan felt suffocated at home. she saw all of her older siblings out doing these fun and crazy things, and that’s what she wanted to be doing. at the time she didn’t understand why her parents were being so unfair, but now she knows they only wanted to keep her safe. 

she still snuck out and went out on the weekends, but was always very smart about it. ryan knew how to make sure her parents believed whatever she was telling them, no questions asked.

she knew from the time she was a kid that she wanted to be a nurse. her best friend growing up’s mom was a nurse and she always shared the coolest stories with the two girls. ryan wanted to help people like she did, she’s always been very compassionate. so that’s what she went to college for. it seemed more practical than painting for a living, though she still enjoys the hobby a lot.

ready to get away from her hometown and her overbearing parents, ryan loved college. she worked hard for her grades, but left plenty of time for fun parties and spring break trips with her friends. and after graduating, she got a job at her local hospital. 

a couple of months ago her father passed away from a heart attack, and it was really hard on ryan. she was very much her father’s daughter and the two of them were really close, so she’s still grieving. after losing her dad she wanted to get as far away from her hometown as possible. but she settled on ivywood.

ryan only moved to ivywood a couple of months ago. she got offered a shift lead position at the town’s hospital so she took it, excited to actually get away and start a life for herself.

ryan is almost always working. she hardly ever has any free time which has made it hard to date and get into a serious relationship. that and she’s very awkward. if she thinks someone is attractive she gets really anxious and 9 out of 10 times makes a fool of herself.

she’s very much a bargain hunter and couponer. ryan loves a good deal.
