mixed personalities

❝ oh, i don’t actually care if you approve. ❞ she says, picking up a piece of nigiri with her chopsticks. ❝ i got it from some place a few blocks up. something haven, i think? no clue. i had it doordash’d here. ❞ she says just before popping the nigiri into her mouth. she was trying to read about business acquisitions, and none of it was interesting. she was bored of this shit. the only reason she was even doing this was because it was conditional of her no longer being cut off, and she was tired of being cut off. she’d had to get a job. ugh. 

“that’s the problem. no one cares anymore. i’m not sure if i ever care. it was just a statement.” a small shrug left his shoulders as he glanced at the other. he was starting to get hungry just watching her enjoy it. “i’ll have to check it out. it seems like a pretty good place.” he nodded, glancing at the material in front of her. “that seems exciting.” a shake of the head and he popped down beside her. “i’m not sure why anyone would want to be reading about that.” 

     ❛  my kid taught me how to use the bluetooth the other day — real game changer. with that sorta highbrow tech, there’s honestly no excuse, yet just last thursday someone wrecked the fire hydrant outside my shop ‘cause they were texting behind the wheel.  ❜

“kids these days are so damn smart, i swear.” he shook his head, moving his hands to rest on his waist. “that’s just stupidity and most cars come with carplay and you don’t need to be on your phone constantly while driving. we see so many accidents because of it.” 

❝ i spent way too much money on sushi today, so if you want some, you’re welcome to it. ❞ she says, gesturing toward the to-go container in front of her. she was supposed to be studying, but what was the fun in that? she had been playing candy crush on her phone for the past half hour, pretending to pay attention to the online class she was enrolled in. // OPEN

“if there’s anything to waste money on, it’s sushi. i approve.” he said, reaching out to take one of the rolls from the box between them. jamie was more interested in listening to his music and thinking about nothing than studying for his tests in the next few weeks. and sushi was just going to make all of that better. he nodded after swallowing the bite. “you have amazing sushi taste. where’d you go?” 

“And that is exactly why I’ve abandoned cars all together. Usually, I’ll ride my bike in. No one can really text on a bike, although you do get the occasional asshole who doesn’t know how to stay out of the bike lane.”

“i respect that but when you’re on the road for work, trying to save someone, it’s a little bit more difficult to navigate when someone is texting. plus, i’m pretty sure it’s against the law.” he shrugged. “biking is all fun and games until someone gets caught up in their conversation and hits someone.” 

delaney cooper; 23; artist/photographer; bisexual; vanessa morgan

delaney was born and raised in the rougher parts of kola so she can fight and argue until she’s blue in the face. 

she has that ‘don’t fuck with me’ attitude but she’s really a sweet person once you get to know her. she is mad loyal to her friends and family. 

10/10 will kick your ass. 

she has a huge love of art. she’s been drawing since she was little and moved into other areas as she grew older. 

she saved up enough money for a camera and she’s been making money being a photographer. 

her mother died when she was younger so it’s basically been her and her dad trying to stay up with the bills so delaney has worked many jobs over the years. bartender, maid, retail, waitress, you name it!

she loves being spontaneous and doing things at the jump of a hat. she has to stay busy to forget about her life tbh. 

she’s dated here and there over the years and only been in love once (wc!!) but that ended poorly. very poorly! but she’s had many hook ups as well. 

she wants to be in magazines with her art. that’s her ultimate goal. 

alex santiago; 28; paramedic; bisexual; ryan guzman

his real name is alejandro miguel angel santiago but if you call him that, he will literally punch you in the face. alex is just fine. 

he is fluent in spanish and english and definitely will throw some spanish your way when he’s drunk. 

he’s one of four siblings, the second oldest. two brothers and one sister. it was a mess in this house. those poor parents lol. 

he’s from a middle class upbringing and was encouraged to attend college after high school but that wasn’t really his thing so he took a course for paramedics and that’s what he’s been doing for the last ten years. 

he loves his job like literally when is he not working? that’s a huge question. 

that’s part of the reason why he’s no longer engaged. 

he met a person (wc!!) many years ago in his early twenties and they were like that poster cute couple and alex loved them so much but he was distracted and it tore them apart. 

so he’s single and definitely finds time to have fun when he’s off shift. 

he used to bartend while he was taking classes to have a little money so he can mix a pretty mean drink. 

he loves kids but he’s not ready to have them. 

hudson clarke; 22; college student; homosexual; cody christian

hudson comes from a rich family. his parents own a hotel in kola. 

he has a sister and a brother and most of the time they don’t get along but hudson tries hard. he’s the oldest so that’s his job, right? 

he’s a student athlete, trying to go pro after graduation so he’s always working out, practicing, all that. 

he could probably take over the family business but he has no interest in that. maybe a back up plan. 

hudson is gay af. he’s been in one relationship since coming out and they were together for a while but it just didn’t work out. (wc!!)

he’s also a frat boy and loves to party and hook up with guys and he’s on tinder all the time looking for some ass. fuckboy, plz. 

he doesn’t want to get too attached to anyone incase he gets drafted but he longs for a relationship and someone to care for him, y’know??

don’t challenge him in a game of anything bc you will probably lose and it’ll get ugly. 

he’s a pretty chill guy but can get angry if his buttons are pressed. idk??

jamie roberts; 21; college student; bisexual; noah centineo

jamie’s full name is jameson but after one too many jokes about being named after alcohol, he goes by jamie.

he plays soccer for his school and he’s been playing all his life so he loves it. 

he likes to people watch and try to figure out what they’re thinking or planning on doing. 

he’s undecided major in college but leaning towards psychology because he likes how the mind works and mannerisms. 

he has a twin sister that he adores and would lit do anything for. (wc!!)

he loves to travel and discover new places. he hasn’t been too far out of kola but when he has, he definitely makes the most out of it. he wants to travel all over europe after graduation. 

he just loves that feeling of being free and able to do his own things without the constraints of life holding him back. 

he’s very wise for his age. 

he loves meeting new people and talking. he’s a huge talker and wants to know everything about you. 

he’s looking for that perfect person to travel with and enjoy their lives together. 

in the mean time, he’s dating here and there, having a good time. 

he drinks but not all that often. he wants to enjoy life without any of that. 

honestly, just a wholesome guy. someone you want around.
