we're all works in progress

Bc I'm rewatching and obsessing and wanted to make an OC to ship with Trevor

Name: Veronica Barker

Faceclaim: Alexa Davalos

Age: 29-32ish when she died

Sexuality: Bisexual, slight male lean

Backstory: Veronica was a riveter during World War 2, where Woodstone Manor was being used as temporary housing for them. One day, she got injured on the job but stubbornly kept working through it, simply patching it up herself using a random piece of torn cloth instead of actually getting help. Everything seemed (relatively) fine...until later that night. She and a few of the others were about to hit the town, but before they could head out, Veronica collapsed and succumbed to her injury. Now, she's one of the spirits bound to Woodstone Manor. Her ghost power is the ability to start/stop engines. She's spunky, headstrong, and stubborn, with a heart of gold.

Volunteer your time (under the cut)

tragic lovers roleplay starters — devotion, doomed romance, and love that survives even as everything else falls apart

LOVE BORN UNDER BAD OMENS

knowing it won’t end well, choosing it anyway

“We both knew this was a terrible idea.”

“If the world ends because of us, I’d still do it again.”

“Promise me one thing—don’t pretend this was nothing.”

“We were doomed the moment we met.”

“Say my name like it’s the last time.”

LOVING IN SECRET

stolen moments, whispered vows, stolen time

“If they find us like this, we’re dead.”

“Just one more night. That’s all I’m asking.”

“You’re shaking—come closer.”

“We don’t have much time. Look at me.”

“I’d burn everything to keep this hidden.”

THE MOMENT IT BREAKS

betrayal, sacrifice, irreversible choices

“I did this so you could live.”

“Don’t look at me like that—you don’t understand.”

“I had to choose. I chose you.”

“If you hate me, I can live with that.”

“This is where we stop being ‘us."

I’D DIE FOR YOU (AND MAY HAVE TO)

last stands, bleeding promises, love in the face of death

“Get behind me. I won’t let them touch you.”

“If this is the end, I’m glad it’s with you.”

“Don’t cry. This is how it was always going to end.”

“I’d rather die loving you than live without you.”

“Tell me you won’t forget me.”

THE LAST GOODBYE

final words, hands slipping apart

“Don’t let go—please.”

“I’ll find you again. Somehow.”

“Say it. Say you loved me.”

“This isn’t fair. We deserved more time.”

“I’ll stay until you can’t see me anymore.”

AFTER THE LOSS

surviving what love destroyed

“The world kept spinning after you died. I don’t understand how.”

“Every place we loved feels haunted now.”

“They say time heals. They’re wrong.”

“I carry you in everything I do.”

“Loving you ruined me—and I’d do it again.”

LOVE THAT WON’T STAY BURIED

ghosts, memories, souls that refuse to part

“I still feel you when it’s quiet.”

“You never really left, did you?”

“If loving you is a curse, I accept it.”

“I talk to you like you’re still here.”

“Even death couldn’t make me stop loving you.”

NO HAPPY ENDING—ONLY TRUTH

acceptance without peace

“This was never meant to be a fairytale.”

“We were beautiful. Brief. And doomed.”

“Some loves are meant to hurt forever.”

“We didn’t survive—but we mattered.”

“This is the story they’ll never tell right.”

I’ve been binging this during quarantine and I’m deadass obsessed. Feel free to change the pronouns!

“What are you blathering about?”

“You can’t be this naiive or this dumb to technology.”

“I’ll tell you what, you got me there! Maybe!”

“But we finish each others’ sentences! It’s adorable!”

“I can’t say goodbye. I always say goodnight, because goodbye means forever.”

“Um…I kicked a cop in the nuts.”

“The lies end now.”

“I swear, if it turns out to be him, I’m gonna slap the taste out of his mouth.“

“As much as you love someone, you can’t trick them into loving you back.“

“She didn’t take my flower! That’s sad, huh?”

“No one believes they’re a bad person at the end of the day.”

“Bitch, you’re cut off!”

“Come on, you look like a bunny rabbit. You’re so small and soft.”

“Kinda let her know we mean buisness.”

“This boy’s got more issues than Vogue.”

Greetings, virtual citizen! My name is Joan.

I am an internet dwelling creator and musician with both self training & classical training influences, along with almost two decades of experience under my binder I mean belt! You might have seen or heard something of mine floating around here in the past. :)

I got my start playing live instruments with my father when I was very young, and went onto participate in jazz band, choir & orchestra in school while taking lessons outside of class as well! I made the transition into digital musical production about 9 years ago, although I still live record as well and enjoy blending both mediums!

I began offering commissions a year ago at a friends suggestion, when my cost of living became much harder to manage. I have completed quite a few orders since then! There is no genre I consider off limits, but I will tell you if I have less experience with something in your request.

MUSIC I CAN MAKE FOR YOU:

Theme songs for OCs!

Theme songs for DND sessions!

Theme songs for just about any story or idea you have!

Background/AFK/Intro & Outro music for streamers and youtubers!

8-16 bit retro sounds for game projects!

Battle songs! Lofi! From breakcore and triphop to even classical!

And literally everything in-between!

CURRENT PRICES (REDUCED):

$30 for a 0-2 minute song!

$60 for 2-3!

$90 for 3-4!

$120 for 4+!

If you're interested, have any questions or want more examples of my work, please feel free to message me or send an ask! The first thing I do when someone has an order is explain the process, so don't worry about that. :)

If you're not interested in a song or cannot afford one and want to donate anyway, here is my KOFI. Every dollar goes into rent & groceries. Thank you so much for your help.

Have a safe day!
