donât call her victoria
she will ensure you instantly regret it
her parents call her victoria and that is two people too many already
not to mentionâŚif her parents do it, whatever âitâ might be, riaâs probs against it
girlâs got mommy + daddy issues galore
hates people like lex porter who complain about the ârich life styleâ but donât do anything to get out of it
since she left, ria hasnât asked her parents for a dime and she never will
honestly, living out of a box is way preferable, hands down
anyway, she loves the independence and anonymity that go along w being penniless
people donât want to her to be perfect
if they like her, they like her for who she is and not what her money might buy them
itâs freeing and validating all at once
and she wouldnât trade it for the world
tibby rollins meets april ludgate meets cece parekh meetsâŚsomeone hahaha
comes off like a sarcastic asshole, actually has a heart of gold
also has a keen sense of justice and tries to knock real assholes down a peg if they get away with hurting too many people
once âdatedâ harry ackerman for a few days so she could convince him to take off his clothes at a party, in order for her to steal the clothing and then leave him naked and humiliated
she hates him so much omg (and he totally had it coming)
the feeling is mutual now
she tried the same thing with lex porter so she could leak nudes of him online
instead of being humiliated, lex sold the originals to the highest bidder and bought himself another sportscar with the proceeds
always kind of had a thing for ian porter but she also felt like he was too good for her so she never said anything
anyway, that was all in high school, sheâs moved on since
moved out of her parentsâ house (and life) when she turned 18
cites it as the best decision she ever made
ria honestly has a lot of mixed emotions about her sister
she canât understand why drea would stick around with their toxic, manipulative parents and continue that awful live-doll lifestyle
and she wonders how much longer ria can blame the mind-fuck her parents pulled on them both for the choices her sister is making
(or why drea would choose their parents over ria which is what she secretly fears and thinks drea has done - not that sheâd ever admit to being that vulnerable)
enjoys making sarcastic suggestions like theyâre real ones at the grocery store and pulling weird pranks
a lot of customers have complained about her bc if they act like pricks to her fellow employees, sheâll ânicelyâ send them on wild goose chases and play pranks on them
ria is every bit a second and youngest sister and it honestly shows
knows how to âkill it with kindnessâ but whereâs the fun in that
will be nice to nice ppl but that wonât keep her from exhibiting her dark sense of humor
if she calls you an idiot though you know youâre in her heart for life tbh
kind of a weirdo honestly
sheâs ria âFIGHT MEâ kress tbh
take her anywhere and you will be treated to sarcastic commentary you def did not ask for
got a little arya stark in her ngl
takes no crap and no hostages either tbh
wears a constant smirk so you never really know what sheâs thinking
spontaneous, sardonic, practical
stubborn, insensitive, impulsive
dresses like sheâs a model for Free People ((;DDDD))
deep down she misses her sister (though not her parents) and wishes they could reconnect
but sheâs too proud and too afraid to admit to it or any emotions at all
sheâd rather just keep things the way they are now
after all, sheâs as happy as sheâs ever been
should she risk messing that up?
