PRETTY KINDA DIRTY FACE

“——— hey, one day I promised to speak the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so…” she eventually trailed off, allowing herself to look around the place before focusing back on the woman right next to her. Spaces like these weren’t her usual scene; crowded clubs, in general, were ought to be full of people she didn’t necessarily want to put up with, but it seemed as though, the red-head definitely managed to catch all of her attention – especially after watching her deal with a drunk idiot in such manner. “There’s lil’ bit of a… uh,” nevermind. Ashe let her words trail off, dissmissing them with a shrug and a small sip from her Bud Light bottle ( classy as HECK ). A smudged lipstick was the least important thing right now. “—— they’re sometimes nice to hang out with… That’s if you want to DUMB yourself down and chill for a bit, of course.” Sure, there was plenty of exceptions to that statement, but generally speaking, the actress had always thought they’re all the same in the end. “But… AGREED —— women are great,” alright, you BIG gay, you can stop now. “Ashe March-Lee, my pleasure.” She introduced herself, letting her trademark half-smile stretch upon her features as she gently shook Piper’s hand.

          neli had seen the other redhead twice so far this evening ( this party ). she was delighted each time, but her heart p a t t e r e d in soft anger for the other and at the man. she wasn’t quite the schemer, however, so she followed piper instead, a petulant frown across her lips. “ hi. GROSS. i’m sorry. “

Thankfully, the other person handled the creeper without her need to intervene – it was, in a way, IMPRESSIVE. “It’s an international thing — men from all around the world think they can do whatever they want, and it’s such a fuckin’ turn off, you know?” The actress began, scrunching her nose up in disgust as she allowed herself to finally lean against the counter, “— actually, scratch that… MEN are a turn off. For me, at least.” Good one. “You… good?” She eventually asked, out of politeness. “If he comes back, I am sure I can take over and help him get through his thick-ass skull that if lady doesn’t want to be interrupted, she REALLY doesn’t want to be interrupted,” Ashe added, “I might get a little bit more… violent than you did, though.”

S T O R Y  &  T I D B I T S

piper grew up as princess of her household, as she was an only child to a pair of the wealthiest people in the country.

she grew up spoiled, receiving whatever she wanted whenever she wanted it 

went to a highly ranked private school in the wealthiest part of new york. though, she met her now ex-boyfriend dean in a bar one evening when she had snuck out with her friends/

dean was two years older than her and was in college by the time she was a senior, though he didn’t come from a wealthy background and actually had an abundance of legal issues he didn’t inform her of, like him being in a GANG. 

piper would unknowingly help him with his crimes, whether it was opening windows for him to steal money or informing him of where precious heir looms were kept. all whilst she was madly falling in love with him.

one day, piper found him in an ally near her home arguing with someone who was SUPPOSEDLY a member of his rival gang...and ended up witnessing him shooting and killing the man. dean immediately forced piper to assist in staging a suicide, including forcing her to forge the suicide note.
