veni ; vidi ; amavi.

OPEN — betrothed ; out of all billions of people in the world, how can there be just one person out there who’s perfect for you ? it doesn’t seem possible. but the tattoo on her wrist, the outline of a triangle she could trace in her sleep, says otherwise. for better, or for worse, these two are fated for each other.

RAJA BAJWA — brother ; tba.

OPEN — best friends ; the ying to her yang, the peanut butter to her jelly, the chandler to her joey. these two are always attached the hip, and seeing them without each other is like seeing pigs fly. they couldn’t last two seconds without each other and everyone knows it. 

OPEN — sib from another crib ; are you two sure you’re not actually related ? a pair of friends who might as well be siblings. they might want to smack each other half the time, but they love each other like nothing else. sometimes their parents sigh and wonder just when they had another child. 

ASHANTI OKAFOR — cuddly duds ; tba.

OPEN — partners in crime ; these two are enough trouble apart, but together they might as well be a hurricane. two characters who stick by the other’s side when in trouble, and are always dragging each other into disaster after disaster. they do have great stories out of it, though. 

OPEN — neighbors ; tba.

OPEN — frenemies ; do they hate each other or are they the closest of friends ? no one’s actually sure. someone who can make her mad like nobody else, but somehow, they’re still perfectly civil. hidden barbs and false smiles, who needs actual enemies when you have a friend like this ? but maybe, when it all comes down to it, they really do care for each other. 

OPEN — bad influence / good influence ; whether she admits it or not, arabella has a tendency to get into too much trouble. gwen, on the other hand, doesn’t get into enough. one is a a bit of disaster, always encouraging the other to let loose, do things that may not be entirely legal. the other ? the total opposite, always looking out for her friend.

WILLIAM MEDICI — corner stone ; tba.   

OPEN — drifted apart ; sadly, these two are no longer in each other’s lives as much as they’d like to be. no catastrophic falling out, no fight, but sometimes, over time, the people you love will slip through your fingertips. these two, who once thought they’d be friends forever, are no longer close.

OPEN — mentor ; the obi wan kenobi to her luke skywalker. an older friend who looks out for her, he has the dad friend act down to a science. a relationship more like a babysitter and charge than a friendship, the other is a guiding, calming figure in her life.

OPEN — might as well date ; they’ve lost count of the amount of times they’ve heard ’ oh , i thought you two were together ! ’ a pair who might as well be a couple, considering how everyone seems to think so. maybe they have a flirtationship, maybe they keep being set up, maybe they bicker like an old married couple, maybe they’re always cuddled close. or maybe all at once.

OPEN — childhood friends ; the pair who shared their crayons on the first day of preschool, and every day after that. all their photo albums and home videos have the two side by side , popsicle stains and matching halloween costumes and all. whether they’re still attached at the hip, or haven’t spoken in a decade, these two have a lifetime of memories behind them.

OPEN — childhood sweethearts ; playground weddings with a teddy bear officiant, and crudely drawn valentines still stored up in the attic, this pair was as cute as can be, once upon a time. their parents used to joke about them growing up and getting married. nowadays ? things may be a bit different.

OPEN — first kiss ; whether it was a mistake or perfect, everyone’s had their first kiss, and they were each other’s . maybe they hated it and never talked to to each other again, or loved it so much that the two fool around in the janitor’s closet every now and then, this one has endless possibilities !  

OPEN — first love ; you never forget your first love. the muse who was her first serious relationship, the first person who she fell head over heels for, who made all the silly love songs on the radio make sense. someone who will always have a place in her heart, and vice versa. 

OPEN —  bisexual awakening ; the gal who made her stop one day and realize, ’ wow, girls are pretty cute ????’ whether it went anywhere, or not, this muse is the person she has to thank for coming to terms with her sexuality. 

DIMTRI BOURBON —  exes on good terms ; a pair of exes that were on the same page when they broke up , and have no hard or lingering feelings toward each other. friendly, and supportive of each other moving forward, and possibly even still close, they get along so well it’s hard to believe they broke up.

OPEN — exes on bad terms ; to be rewritten. a pair of exes who were absolutely not on the same page when they broke up. maybe one cheated, maybe one still has feelings, maybe things ended in a total blowout. any way, they’re at each other’s throats like cats and dogs, and it’s a shock that they ever liked each other in the first place.

JAMIE WINDSOR — heartbreaker ; having your heart broken sucks, but sometimes, there will be people who hurt you. for these two ? it was each other. the exes who, whether they meant to or not, crushed each other like only someone you love can.

OPEN — friends with benefits ; maybe they’re not exactly fucking, just kissing and always flirting with each other, or maybe they are hooking up. shameless or secretive, these two aren’t necessarily in a relationship, but they’re not just friends either. this pair is the definition grey area between platonic and romantic. 

OPEN — we always meet wtf ? ; two who meet everywhere they go. at this point, it’s ridiculous. at the bakery, on the street, on a train. wherever it is, you name it, they’ve met there at least thrice. maybe it’s even intentional ?
