muse: amélie / a humanoid & a famous actress in this verse.

plot: “i’m just an extra, but the star has a crush on me?! what????” au

With the director of the show yelling out his final ‘CUT’ for the evening, the filming for the pilot episode of her new show came to an end. It was a romantic tale of a princess falling in love with a local thief. They had filmed their last scene outside of their usual studio and instead on location at a quaint little village away from the city. The air was warm and had a faint smell of freshly baked bread. It was a beautiful place and the locals had been very kind to her and the crew. She almost didn’t want to return back to the city but she knew that she had to. Her manager had signed her up for a morning variety show at the last minute so she needed to return and review her script.

[-] Fast Food / Greasy food tends to upset his stomach.

Bai Zhu was born into wealth and he was raised by his grandparents after his parents were killed in a car accident. He had the privilege of having the freedom to pursue his passions instead of being forced to take part in the family business. It seemed like his grandparents views changed after the passing of their daughter and son in law and they become more lenient and understanding. He was popular among his peers and teachers for his polite personality and writing abilities. He skipped a grade and published his very first novel at the age of fifteen. Suffering from chronic nightmares, he uses them as subjects for his books.

Upon reaching adulthood, he moved to Seoul, South Korea after receiving an invitation to join the SP Detective Agency as member of their research department from an individual named ‘Dr. Yoon’ In exchange for working with them, he was offered specialized medication for his nightmares. When he isn’t working on his next novel, he lends a hand and his knowledge at the laboratory. 

                                                                    RELATIONSHIPS:

His grandfather & grandmother: He has a very good relationship with his grandparents. He is constantly video calling them with updates on his next book and sharing the random on goings in his life. They don’t necessarily agree with the work that he does with the agency but they don’t push him too much about it. He has not come out to them yet and has no current plans to, his focus on working instead of finding a partner.

His father & mother: His father was the CEO of an airline company and his mother was the CEO of an oil company. Unfortunately they were killed in a tragic car wreck when Zhu was just a couple of months old.

The current place of living: a studio apartment located in the downtown area

Job title: Spiritual Consultant 

                                                                      LIKES & DISLIKES

[-] Heatwaves / Her ideal weather is just after a rainfall, when everything is just slightly cooler and damper than usual.

[-] Sweets / Si Yeon prefers eating and drinking things that are more on the savory and bitter side.

Si Yeon was born with the ability to see the undead, an ability that she inherited from her great grandmother. She was often the subject of bullying because of it. The children in her neighborhood would throw rocks at her when she walked by and steal her belongings. For that reason, her parents decided that it would be best to home school her and her younger brother. Spirits would come to her for favors and would torment her if she didn’t help them. Some even going as far as harming her and the members of her family.

While her parents had always supported her ability and even considered it to be a sign of luck, that didn’t stop Si Yeon from developing a complex from it. She spent many years resenting herself and feeling ashamed of who she was. She tried running away from home and even attempted suicide at a one point so that her family wouldn’t be burdened by her existence anymore. During her recovery, she was visited by a man who introduced himself as Dr. Yoon who promised to help her use her ability in a way that could help others and introduce her to people going through the same struggles.

Dr. Yoon recruited her into his agency when she turned sixteen and she has been working with him and his team ever since. She works as a spiritual consultant and job consists of connecting clients to their deceased loved ones, filling requests for the undead and on occasion, she’ll be requested to tag along to assess a location.

                                                                 RELATIONSHIPS:

Mother & Father: Her mother owns and manages her own store and her father used to work as a salesman before he quit his job to teach his children at home. She has a really good relationship with her parents. They have always supported her and her brother in everything that they decide to do. She makes sure to visit them often and she always sends them a portion of her paycheck every month despite their protests.

“My bike went BANG! The car went BANG!” The thick wedges of her black boots click and clatter against the wood of the stairway as she skips down the steps, singing along to the song that plays in her head. “Can I never play with my friends again? Can I never ride my bike again?” Her master had gone out for the evening to handle a private matter, leaving her in charge of the house while he was away. She had been tasked with keeping an eye on their latest victim or toy as she liked to call them until he returned. Unfortunately she wasn’t allowed to play with them without his permission which she found incredibly boring of him but she might get away with teasing them a little without getting into too much trouble. “I was in so much PAIN! So much PAIN! It hurt so much!” The stairways leads down to a large door with eleven different type of locks, her set of keys make loud jangling sounds as she quickly unlocks them one by one. Putting away her set of keys, she pushes the heavy door open and sets foot into the basement.

Name: Lee Maicoh

Birthday: April 14th 1993

The current place of living: He’s a self proclaimed ‘modern nomad’ in the sense that he lives on the road in his converted camper van.

Job Title: Demon Hunter & Exorcist + Freelancer Blogger

                                                                          LIKES & DISLIKES

[+] Traveling - From driving across the country to find the perfect steak to overnight camping in the city, Maicoh is a fanatic about traveling. He loves the thrill of venturing off into uncharted territories and experiencing new sights.

[+] Being invited to parties - He has always been a very social person which in turn gets him invited to many type of different events. He doesn’t mind attending because for the brief time that he’s there, he feels normal again and that he belongs somewhere.

[+] Wireless earbuds - Usually wears them during exorcisms to avoid distractions. His playlist contains the following songs; Your Sex Is A Dream - Trevor Something, Ocean Drive - Duke Dumont, Why - Hwa Sa, Forgive Me - Chloe x Halle and Run Boy Run - Woodkid.

[-] Medication - He’s always complaining to Dr. Yoon that the pills he prescribes him taste like the inside of a dumpster.

[-] Scented products - His nose is quite sensitive so he has a low tolerance for anything that uses a lot perfume-y type scents.

Lee Maicoh was just an average man, living an average life. He worked the typical 9 to 5 schedule at an average job, selling life insurance. He wasn’t particularly happy nor disheartened about  his career or his lifestyle, living every day in a sort of autopilot mode. He had grown up in a middle class home with parents who were both dental assistants and his younger sister who was studying to become a high school teacher. He had a small handful of friends, people who grew up in the same neighborhood as him that he met up with on occasion to keep up with appearances but he wasn’t particularly attached to any of them. His viewpoint of the world was lukewarm. 

To celebrate his twenty-fifth birthday, he attended a weekend camping session with his friend group. The majority of the trip was a success; the location was great for seeing the stars at night, it was a secluded area so it wasn’t overcrowded with tourists and the weather was great. On their last night while everyone else was getting hammered in front of an open campfire, Maicoh decided to venture off on his own to take more pictures of a nearby lake. An hour in he realized that he might have gone in the wrong direction and decided to try and head back before he ended up super lost instead only slightly. Turning back, his path is block by what he assumed at the time was a stray dog or possibly a wolf. Approaching it with caution and a vague concern in case it truly was just a stray dog, the creature to seem to grow in size the more the distance between them shortened. Coming face to face with a MASSIVELY large creature with dark red eyes. In the slit second it took for him to make the decision to flee, the creature lunged at him; tearing apart his flesh and bones. And just as quickly as the attack began, it ended just as quick. The mysterious beast seemingly disappearing into the night, leaving him there to blood out.

                                                                          RELATIONSHIPS

Mother & Father - Her father passed away before she was born. He was a bartender and her mother was an escort. Her mother abandoned her at the age of six months, leaving her in an alleyway in the middle of winter.

Park Jae Hyuk - Her first love and the father of her child. He grew up in the same orphanage as her and they were initiated into the gang at the same time. They were madly and passionately in love. Both equally obsessed with taking over the world with their music. They formed a band together with their mutual friends called ‘Black Snow’ He passed away from a drug overdose.

Moon Seo Yeon never met her father and her mother abandoned her in an alleyway. Thankfully she was found by a empathetic stranger who brought her to nearby orphanage or she wouldn’t have survived the night. The orphanage wasn’t a bad place by any means but it was severely underfunded and understaffed. Therefore she was forced to become independent and self reliant from a young age. To avoid having to rely on the orphanage’s funds, she went around doing odd jobs around the neighborhood; collecting trash and recyclables, finding lost pets, doing yard work, etc. She wasn’t able to attend the school in her area due to her financial situation and instead self studied at home.

At 15, she and her boyfriend formed a band called ‘Black Snow’ with a couple of friends. They obtained moderate success by doing free street performances. From an artistic standpoint, performing for free was enough to satisfy them. However from a financial and a more realistic standpoint, they were struggling. With only a year left to stay at the orphanage and no stable income that would allow them to both to stay on top of bills and pursue their passions, they did what a lot of impressionable teenagers were doing at the time. They were recruited into a gang that promised to make all of their financial difficulties go away.

However nothing is ever as it seems and while were able to make extra money to keep their band afloat, they were also exposed to alcohol, drugs, abuse, etc and bombarded with massive debt. At the young age of 16, Seo Yeon was pregnant, on the hook with loan sharks and grieving the passing of her boyfriend. The rest of the band called it quits and everyone went on their own separate paths. She had a healthy pregnancy and gave birth to a son who she named Jae Seo, after her and former boyfriend’s names. While raising her son, she took whatever odd job that came her way; from cleaning toilets to delivering fast food in order to lessen her debt.

muse: #755 or Ezra is a humanoid that your muse (single parent) ordered online to be a father figure for their child.

Almost an entire two months had passed since he had arrived at their residence and became a permanent member of their family. As expected, things were a little awkward at first but he quickly became acquainted with the other members of the household and their preferences and it’s been smooth sailing ever since. His daily routine now consists of sending off his partner to work in the morning (not before filling them up with a hearty home cooked breakfast), taking care of any overdue household chores, feeding the cat, keeping their three year old daughter entertained throughout the day and having a hot and fresh home cooked dinner waiting on the table for when his significant other comes home from work.

”Welcome home!” Ezra calls out to them when he hears the jiggling of their keys and the opening of the front door. His daughter clings to the bottom of his leg as he pulls out a steaming hot pan of chocolate chip cookies from the inside of the oven before resting the pan on top of the stove to allow the cookies to cool down for dessert. “You’re just in time for dinner. I thought we could change things up a little so I made Italian” He refers to the dinning room table; two large plates of spaghetti, a bowl of garlic bread and glasses filled with red wine are waiting for them.

muse: dahlia park / personal assistant & freelancer

plot / connection: we had a minor argument the night before our wedding so i stepped out for some air and basically disappeared without a trace until now...2 and half years later.

additional note: dr. yoon’s face claim is yoon park for those who need a visual aid.

Sixth months. It had only been six months since Dahlia had woken up for her coma like state and reentered the world of the living. A lot had occurred in the two years that she had been MIA. She had been listed as a missing person. And after seemingly loosing their daughter to the unknown her parents’s health deteriorated until they ultimately ended up passing away from the heartbreak. Her favorite musician decided to retire early and her former boss had been arrested for fraud. The world had moved on without her and as much as she longed to return to how things were before her accident, she forced herself to accept the reality of the situation. No good would have come from her attempting to reconnect with those she had left behind.  Not when she knows how sensitive her condition is and that she’d only have to leave them again if Dr. Yoon isn’t able to find a cure for her in time. So instead of returning to the life that she had before and potentially reopening old wounds, she decided it would be best for everyone for her to move forward with whatever time that she had left.

❝What should we do about dinner tonight? Should I attempt to cook that new recipe that I found? Or should we reward ourselves for working hard all week and order in instead? Hmm..?❞ Dahlia inquires to the man beside her, their arms linked together as the walk down the sidewalk. She had spent the entire day out with Dr. Yoon shopping around town for new supplies for the clinic and making house calls to some of their regular patients. And while she had held out pretty well for most of the day, she had begun experiencing minor numbness in knees and they were still a solid twenty minutes away from their apartment so she used him to support herself the remaining way.

muse: olivia kim / a thousand year old demon (refer to bio)

plot / connection: you’re my best friend’s boyfriend and i know you’re interested in me and i love chaos so i am going to tease you until you break so i can ruin your relationship.

Olivia is not an idiot, she knows exactly what she’s doing when she shows up in front of their apartment. Her glossy jet black hair is tucked behind her ears and her choice of makeup is deceptively simple in order to come across as more natural and down to earth. She’s wearing a rained soaked all white dress to exude false innocence despite the fact that the water had soaked through and caused the dress to become rather transparent in the chest area. Did she check the weather forecast before she had left her house? Absolutely. Did she purposely leave her umbrella behind? Yes. Had she also purposefully wandered into their neighborhood under the guise of having been shopping in the nearby area when she just happened to get caught in the rainfall? Bingo. Why? She’s bored. It’s as simple as that.

OLIVIA KIM is a 1,000 year old DEMON that is currently possessing the body of a recently deceased  TWENTY-THREE year old woman. During the day, she is a sickeningly sweet psychology major in her first year. She is popular among her peers and professors; known for being kind, frail, beautiful and delicate. During the night, she uses her charms to lure in corrupt wealthy old men before killing and stealing from them.
