history.

you are in kindergarten when you realize that you are not on the same playing field as your peers. a question is asked. you are the first to answer. your teacher asks for others to chime in. the room is silent. it is then that you begin to think you are, in fact, above them. you read, you write, you do math - everything you do during class is at an advanced level. it is on the playground that you suffer. "nerd!" is hurled at you faster than any dodgeball, faster, even, than your hand goes up in the air to answer the teacher's questions. but eventually you learn how to blend in, to fly under the radar, to share the spotlight. your home life is fine. you have nice parents, and a boatload of brothers who spend more time in physical altercations than they do completing their homework. but your grandmother cares enough to make up for any care that may be lacking. she encourages you to learn as much as you can, gives you books at higher and higher levels, and introduces you to the world of documentaries - your entry point into cinema.  you are in middle school when you are forced to confront your secret superiority complex. you skip the sixth grade, and most of the careful alliances you crafted to create some semblance of a social life become irrelevant. you could have skipped seventh too, but the shift is already damaging enough. you think you are better than your peers, armed with your statistics and your iq, riding the high of being promoted, and you are immediately proven wrong. you spend most of your pre-high school career at the local movie theater, memorizing all plot points of the top 100 movies of the last decade. it is there that your circle begins to grow. by the time you are in high school, you have given up on hiding your talents. the fridge in your house is littered with your accomplishments - awards, a+ papers, your detailed schedule of commitments. it has been an impossible battle, becoming the star child. and yet, through a rigorous course of spelling bee wins, academic society memberships, and student government campaigns, you have proven yourself to be worthy. with each day that passes, you only further receive the academic validation that you don't just want, but need. by the end of your freshman year, you have a small circle of friends who listen when you speak, who trust the authority you have on the topics you've become an expert in. you are a surprising hit with the outcasts of the school, and you're on track to become student body president. and then it all comes crashing down. you lose. to a sports star.

you are convinced that in the competition between brains and brawn, brains will always win. it does not matter that your peers sometimes make idiotic choices, as long as they are able to correct their mistakes. you throw yourself into your studies, into your tutoring, into your extracurriculars. you strategically utilize your brothers' clout. you run a smart campaign on realistic yet appealing promises. and eventually, you usurp the emperor. you become student body president for your junior and senior years. what comes next? you work harder, study longer, do better, all with the goal of coming out on top. you are the valedictorian. you go off to an ivy league school. you graduate from said ivy league school three years later near the top of your class, a double major ensuring that you will find success in your career. the next stop? grad school, of course. there was never any doubt that you would get a doctorate, so when you are accepted to your second ivy, there is little fanfare. you ship up to boston (or, cambridge), and the world is your oyster. until. three years later, your funding gets cut. there's nothing to be done - it's a national crisis and you're caught in the middle. your thesis is put on hold while things are figured out, but one thing is certain - there will be no resolution before the fall semester is set to begin. your school isn't the only one, and the field is flooded with scientists desperate for jobs. but you've been informed that one has opened up in a place no one would think to look... within months you are moving back home, to wrensted. persephone returning to the underworld. your spring and summer are over. you are back in the town that you swore you were too good for, teaching at the school that gave you so much, but is a constant reminder of all of the ways in which you are a disappointment. there are some bright spots - some friends to reconnect with, students who truly care about your subject, but overall it is a crushing blow. until an opportunity presents itself. it's coming up on winter, and all you have to fill your free time in the ever-present darkness that is a 4pm sunset is marathoning movies at wrensted watches and wallowing in your demoralized state. so when your tutee from back in the day turns up dead (murdered?), and members of your inner circle begin to turn to you... well, it only makes sense that you utilize the one semester of forensic science you've taken (plus the million mystery movies you've watched!). sure, you didn't care much about amelia castro before, but that just makes it easier to do what you're doing. to remain realistic while putting the pieces together. after all, who better to lead the charge than mr. know it all?

headcanons.

spencer reid if he was also chandler bing. shane madej meets paris geller. smart boy whose intellect can be isolating, but who makes some chaotic choices that no one can find the logic behind. he has a dry sense of humor and a matter of fact way of speaking, but that only makes him seem to have more authority on whatever he’s talking about.

will’s grandmother taught him how to read. he is very clearly her favorite, and it’s mutual. he makes time to grab dinner with her (or bring it over to her) at least once a week.

he has an eidetic memory, but that doesn’t mean he didn’t put in a lot of work to be at the top of his class. he pulled long hours, did 100% of the work in group projects, etc.

he double majored in college - molecular biology and engineering. even though he no longer needed them to get into the school of his dreams (he was already there), he was still overly involved in extracurriculars in undergrad. he chose molecular biology for his doctorate.

Cinephile. letterboxd user. subtitles enjoyer. he probably would’ve made a decent director, but no one should let him anywhere near a camera. he’d have entirely too many opinions for it to be productive.

cat owner (his cat is named nico, short for nicolaus copernicus).

nyt daily games and murdle player (he takes his wins wherever he can get them these days).

president of the science club, environment club, film club, national honor society, and student body (x2) back in high school.

tri-lingual - he knows english, asl, and latin. he’s working on additional languages, but he wouldn’t say he’s proficient yet.

had a small but mighty group of friends back in school. invites to parties may have been few and far between, but who needs those when you could have a movie marathon? when your debates at lunchtime were both fun and fascinating? they collected group members as will ran for student body president, but their attrition rate was quite low. it was a good group to be a part of. still is.

he cringes every time someone calls him by his last name, as his brothers were truly legendary for their athletic prowess (in football, basketball, and baseball) and that’s the name that followed them down the school hallway. the fantastic finches. they all got sports scholarships and have managed to escape wrensted, and that drives him insane. he was supposed to be the one to make it out, while they were supposed to be the ones stuck in dead-end jobs, reminiscing about their glory days.

he loves them, obviously, but it’s complicated. things in their family have always been a competition, but he’s always assumed that by playing the long game he’ll win. it seems like that is not the case.

he is actively trying to make more friends now that he’s stuck in wrensted for the foreseeable future. as a result, he’s trying to seem a bit more welcoming and a bit less of a downer.

wanted connections.

roommate. will may have had to move back to wrensted, but he drew the line at moving back in with his parents. even though it eats into the funds he could be putting towards his loans, he rents a 2 bedroom apartment. he and his cat are decent roommates.

high school ex. details tbd.

traitor/the friend of my enemy is also my enemy. he takes his rivalry with the emperor very seriously - this is maybe someone who was close to him once, but ended up switching teams.

"we're both too good to be here." - someone he's always admired. it seems fair to say that god is testing them both at the same time, if they've both unhappily returned to wrensted.

additional members of the snoop troop. he's assembling a team... they may not all know about each other, but eventually he'll get everyone together in a room to stare at whatever conspiracy board monstrosity he's put together.

prime suspect. the clues may not actually be pointing in their direction, but... william doesn't like them, and so it clouds his judgment a bit.

letterboxd hater. truly someone who thinks every single one of his letterboxd reviews sucks. they could know it's him (it IS his picture on the account) or they could not.

narrative...

silent as the dead, a deep winter night tore in two the night the umber house was blessed with twins - a baby girl startlingly quiet in the passing minuted after her brothers first breath. and that was how astriss continued on; silent, contemplative, a steeled strength woven in amongs the stark's bannermen that carried as much heart and ice as the rest of them. an odd little thing, the fascination with the darkest corners of the last hearth, astriss quickly became the apple of their fathers eye, a quck witted, curious little child that seemed to constantly leave him speechless - be it upon the proclamation of things she shouldn't know, or those that he'd never heard before. the fascination with insects, animal carcasses, life beyond death, astriss and her practice in her belief of the old gods became a stringent piece of who she was, behind closed doors however, astriss heard whispers of the darker strains of religion, of magic and arts that weren't filled with reproach and curiosity drove her to seek knowledge of the unspoken.

in decades to come, and the volatile loss of the youngest umber in what remains to be a harrowing ordeal of broken bones and a burning infection, astriss simply turned inward. those of last hearth all claimed that she'd always been a little strange - a little different, but in truth, grief peeled the very flesh from her bones. the turn of tides as the starks further sought to solidify their standing with the dragons left a bitter taste upon her tongue; something about the rulers turned her stomach and her own formerly ironclad loyalty to the starks began to crack. Dragonflamw would surely offer a reigning promise of victory over what lay to the north but there had to be more - they couldn't solely believe the dragons would be their savior. A folly alliance in this game when the real threat would always come from beyond.

# wanted  connections.

former betrothed: obvious; this didn't work out, for whatever reason, astriss was likely very open about why - whether that suits the former betrothed or has ruffled feathers.  

closest friend: undoubtedly someone from the north and someone that has never questioned her... differences rather encouraged them almost . this person is well aware that the umber family are not super thrilled about the weight being put being the stark/dragon alliance

HEAD CANONS AND/OR BACKSTORY.

ABOUT

'03 liner, born to a musician dad and his roadie wife in namwon. mom was a groupie turned tour staff turned hook-up turned pregnant with their first son turned wife LMAO

so ahyoung has two (significantly) older brothers, and by the time ahyoung (who was an accident) was born, they were all going on tour with dad and nobody wanted to settle down to take care of a baby

so ahyoung got dumped with grandma (on her mom's side) while the others stayed traveling. they would visit when it was convenient but it was not enough for ahyoung's liking

so she started acting out to try to get attention, then once she was labeled a "bad kid" by her parents, was upset and decided well they aren't going to see me as lovable i might as well live up to their bad expectations of me <3 and got Worse

poor grandma is legitimately very kind and did her best raising her i think she probably argued with her daughter a lot over what was best for ahyoung

they tried taking ahyoung on tour once she was old enough but she was a menace there as well so they took her back to grandma and left her there again

eventually it comes out that dad has been cheating on mom. you know. rockstars. lmao

mom was furious and decided to divorce him and wanted to Start Over, decided she was moving to california, and when she was like come on kids let's go the boys were like lol no??? so then she went back to grandma and ahyoung and wanted to take ahyoung with her instead.

by then ahyoung was 12 and she was like ok yeah i'll go. i actually hate it here. and grandma was super hesitant but after some convincing by both her daughter And granddaughter she relented and let her go

ahyoung actually took to california a lot better than namwon. she was just naturally a rebel and very progressive so she actually made friends there quite quickly, she was just still a total menace to society so she was in trouble alllll the timeeee and STILL no one knew what to do with her, even though she did have some kind teachers that actually cared about her and tried to help her

her mom was like absolutely at her wit's end. she had no idea how to take care of ahyoung and all things considered they didn't even know each other that well so their relationship was not great.

ahyoung did just about everything any standard rebel gremlin wild child high schooler could possibly do. got suspended multiple times until she finally got expelled

mom was even MORE at her wit's end and shipped her back to korea, an all girls boarding school for Troubled Childen. it was overall a terrible experience but it didn't break ahyoung's spirit or do much to rehabilitate her if anything it just made her Angrier (and gayer!)

the boarding school was super strict and didn't offer them that much unsupervised time off-campus but it wasn't too far from seoul so she would go to the city whenever she could (or whenever she illegally escaped lmao) and really fell in love with the music scene there. got a fake id to get into every club she could

she actually applied to universities and got into one in seoul for sound engineering. sure, maybe she embellished details a little on her applications, but she was actually smart and her grades weren't as horrific as you might think. timing worked out that her grandma was also ready to expand her humble tearoom business to seoul as well, so they moved together

she was truly so glad to become an adult. now she could truly make any stupid choices she wanted without having to listen to any adults because SHE was the adult!!

she's honestly incredibly outgoing and i wouldn't say she's friendly because she's so sarcastic but she's fun and good at carrying conversation, so she made lots of connections and ended up snagging a job as a photographer for a concert venue, thanks to those connections and her love for photography as a hobby that actually made her really good!

i didn't mention music much in this description but she really always liked music, even without her parents introducing it to her. she had the time of her life on tour with them for five minutes. she would say it's in her blood and that she's also "reclaiming it from her shitty dad."

she writes a loooot of songs. she's a very pop punk girlie (she plays bass and guitar) but also a rapper, so her style is interesting. think waterparks (like this or this ), yungblud, harder olivia rodrigo, etc; sing-rappy.

she's weird. likes dark shit, isn't scared of much of anything. knows a lot about music but also serial killers.

she will honestly talk to and befriend anyone. she's not a judgmental person at all. i think you could tell her just about anything and she'd be like "that's cool. want a cigarette"

she also lies a lot. lies for fun, lies to get out of trouble. she knows she looks really cute and it used to bother her but now she uses her looks to her advantage to play the Officer I'm Innocent card and gets away with way too much because of it

she honestly has a lot of creative talents. she's pretty good at art as well and considered being a tattoo artist for a little while. she also considered being a makeup artist because she loves that too. of course, there's also photography, and there's music. she also knows how to edit videos and she's picked up how to work lighting and sound at concerts due to her Connections. she is Open For Freelance Work (she will do just about anything for a price)

i'm sure i'm forgetting stuff about her but whatever this is more than enough right LKJSDLFLSDGSD

PLOT IDEAS

ahyoung really wants to be in a band, but she's not right now. she knows lots of musicians but nothing has worked out yet and she doesn't have the attention span and sense of responsibility to actually Start Her Own Band so somebody else needs to do it! or invite her to your existing band! she can play bass or guitar but would rather play bass.

since she's a concert photographer she's at One particular concert venue just about every night, but she also just goes to anyone's concerts when she can. clubs too. live music? she's there, she loves it. any muses in this scene could know her!

classmates! i don't know what uni she goes to yet for plotting purposes so we can figure that out. she's better at school these days since she has freedom to do what she wants outside of it, and is actually studying something she likes

people for her to be a bad influence on. she doesn't really Pressure People to do "bad things" but she does a lot of crazy shit, always offers cigarettes and alcohol, says "who cares" about just about every rule, and if your muse is impressionable and/or a pushover it's possible that she could rub off on them

alternatively, people that try to tell her to calm the fuck down. she'll hate it and tell them to mind their own business they're not her real dad

honestly she's very American in attitude and personality despite only living there for like four years, so she'll probably vibe with fellow americans. they can talk about how much they miss american snacks and how "stuffy everyone in korea is"

she likes dogs. will 100% ask to pet your dog and strike up a conversation if she sees someone out and about with one, so first meetings that way could work

she likes video games also; she's an xbox and nintendo switch gal as of now but trying to save up for a gaming computer (god knows when she'll have enough money because she keeps buying shit she doesn't need) so gaming friends are welcome

she thinks kpop is pretty cool but isn't super into it. just from being so into music she knows a decent amount about the companies and artists, but isn't super attached to any of them. people to get her emotionally invested in a group would be nice, though i'm not sure how they could do that yet kLJSDLFJLSDG we'll figure it out!

she doesn't know a thing about dancing outside of the kind of dancing you do in clubs and at concerts but she also thinks that is cool and considering how well she takes to most creative outlets i think she'd be decent at it if someone got her into it, so someone to at least try to get her into dancing would be fun too

she doesn't have a youtube channel or anything but music is a very social thing for her so people to collab with and jam with in any way would be fun for her

fellow songwriters that are open to sharing their work with her; just be sure to tell her if you want feedback or not because she has no problem telling people when their music could use work lmao...she'll share her music too, though, and if you give her critique she'll be like "ok. i didn't make this for you." but she'll consider it anyway
