Ā Ā George Walker was brought up to love everyone. With two parents who embodied the idea that everyone was a human and therefore needed to be treated with the same compassion and understanding that he gave someone else, no matter who they were. George grew up on those ideals, and they were ideals that he was not afraid to tell other people aboutā no matter the scoffs that he got from others who did not feel the same way as himself and his family. From the young age of three, he was all smiles all the time. He thought it was easier to be happy than it was to be unhappy. His family always loved to see the boy because he was the face of joy. He was the perfect child, they couldnāt ask for a better little boy, even after his twin siblings Faira and Orion were born. From the moment he could talk he was always asking people how they were feeling and if they needed help. He had almost a knack for figuring out what someone was feeling by just the way they sat and the facial expressions they had. He never seemed to have any dark thoughts going through his mind and the more he grew up, the more he appreciated the life around him. Without a smile, he felt almost lost, helping people became almost a second nature to him. How someone felt meant a lot to him. By the time he was ten, he was easily one of the most charming people in the entire school, trying his best to make sure that everyone felt important.
Ā Ā When he got older, girls flocked to him and fawned over him. However, George never seemed interested in them. He spent most of his time with his friend Jamison Bates. The two were best friends. They could not be separated; they did everything together. Rarely did someone see George without Jamison close behind him and vice versa. Jamison was an artist, and loved to build things, and George was a visionary wanting to create things and make them come alive. The two owned the theater department. While George never excelled in anywhere other than theater and the arts, he enjoyed it, and knew that eventually he wanted to direct films. Jamison always dreamed of being a set designer. The two made a pact that they would work together for the rest of their lives, and they would stay friends forever. At the young age of fifteen, that almost seems to be ridiculous, but nothing could break the bond between the two friends. George could not deny a physical attraction to his best friend, but he never said anything out loud because it was more trouble than good to admit those feelings. It was taboo in their society and he would not condemn the both of them for his possible one sided feelings. The boy just continued to be a friend. He never wanted to make a wave at school, except for some reason he felt that he was making a difference in the lives of the people around him. And he could not deny happiness about that. With his graduation, he and Jamison parted ways. Although George felt a little sick to the stomach at that, he did not say anything. They still had their pact to remain friends through everything and that was what was important to him.
Ā Ā College went by in a flash, and before too long, he was working at Victory Street Productions. He was mainly doing small jobs, like assistant director and even was a cameraman for a little bit. He was the same George though, caring more about the people around him than his own self. The young man started working under one of the bigger directors at Victory Street, Scott Castle. The older man became someone that George could look up to. Working with Scott built up his credibility and before long, he was working on bigger projects. He met Dottie Kierson not long after the girlās high school graduation. George was charming to her, and instantly drawn to her. She was sad and he wanted to help her as much as he could. He convinced her to stay in town, only because he cherished her as a friend. Their friendship meant a lot to him, especially after he stopped talking to Jamison. Dottie reluctantly agreed to stick around in Los Angeles. He got her a job as a publicist for Scarlet Moon Studios, which Dottie seemed grateful about, especially since she hit her stride there. Life was looking up for George. When he was asked to work on a film that would mean he was going to have to leave town, he accepted. He would be the lead on the project and he was ecstatic that his hard work and dedication was paying off. A few weeks later he was off to shoot a movie in Mexico. Although Dottie seemed disappointed, she understood. He promised that he would keep in contact with her while he was away.
Ā Ā Mexico was one of the best experiences of his life. He got to explore a different culture and learn a lot about travel. The movie was a good experience for him, especially since he was the sole director of the movie, he had control over everything. Everything was panning out for Georgeā which is usually when something doesnāt pan out. After a drunken night in Veracruz, Mexico, George found himself in bed with another man. He did not feel like he had done anything wrong, even if society deemed it that way, but the night scared him so much because what George realized about himself was that he preferred men. That scared him more than anything else in the world. So he packed up the crew and cast and they went back to Los Angeles. He had filmed enough on location and it was time to start editing the film. George felt no shame for sleeping with a man, there were other people like him ā and he had always been taught to be accepting of everyone. The moment he got back to Los Angeles ā 26 March 1972 ā only two days after Alanaās disappearance. Except he did not tell a single soul that he was back. Not Scott. Not Dottie. Not the people at Victory Street Productions. No oneā except Jamison. The two went out to catch up because it had been years since they had spoken. George had a pleasant night with his old best friend, and promised that they would speak again soon.
Ā Ā It was two days after Alanaās disappearance that he actually admitted that he was back to the studio. He had come home to utter turmoil. LA PETITE FEMME needed work, Scott needed help, they needed a new lead, and a camera man -- and they needed to rework the script. It was Dottie that told him news that Alana Sommers was missing. His heart fell out of his chest. While he had never met the woman, he wondered what anyone could want with her. She was popular, and happy from what he had heard of her. Dottie was sure to have known Alanaā he did not know that they had become good friends in the time he was gone, but George knew that he could not have a heavy talk to Dottie, not now. She was not going to understand and George could not lie to her, and he knows that telling her that he does not want to date women just might end their friendship for good. Luckily, with the mess the studio is in, he had found a way to become busy and avoid Dottie. George felt bad about it because he knew she took the disappearance harder than many of the other people in the studio. He knows that there is only so long before the woman notices that heās avoiding anything more than a small chat.
Ā Ā Ā FAIRA & ORION WALKER. siblings All George wants for his siblings is for them to be happy and follow in their footsteps. He loves Faira and Orion with all his heart. Though they are much younger than him, he hopes that they do know that he loves them very much. George has always been a family man and though he has not come out to his siblings he does hope that they will accept him. George is as involved in their lives as he can be, especially now that he is busy helping Scott with the movie. The man knows that Faira will accept him, but he isnāt quite sure about Orion -- as his younger brother is a mystery at the best of times. George knows that above everything, his family is what is going to come first.Ā
Ā Ā Ā JAMISON BATES. interest George would do just about anything for Jamison, though he isnāt sure if the other boy feels the same way. George has always been more emotional and outwardly artistic than his counterpart friend. Though it has been several years since the two of them have connected, Jamison has been an important person in Georgeās life for a long time. Jamison is probably his closest friend and the only person George is comfortable talking to about everything. Heās sure Dottie wonāt understand what heās going through. The other boy is the only person that knows what happened in Mexico and lately George has been questioning if their relationship could possibly be more important to him than he originally thought. ( ooc: Although it is heavily implied that George & Jamison slept together the night George got back, it will be up to the players if that happened or not. )
Ā Ā ODETTE PETROVA. annoyance She just wonāt leave him or Jamison alone. The painter, while heavily talented, just isnāt someone that he cares to know. Sheās friendly and way too bubbly for her own good, but it almost seems that she has something to hide. If only Odette would leave him alone. George does think sheās friend material, especially since sheās interesting, but he just wishes she would leave him alone sometimes. For some reason, sheās latched onto him and while he does want to be friendly and nice, sometimes he wonders if he was just oblivious to all women that acted like that prior to realizing his sexuality, or if itās just Odette that bothers him.
Ā Ā Ā DENA ARYA. acquaintanceĀ George is a frequent customer at the Railroad cafe. He finds Dena fascinating. Though he has only talked to her a few times, he wonders if sheās just interesting because he doesnāt know her very well -- or if she has a lot of cool stories that heās yet to find out. The Railroad Cafe is one of Georgeās favorite spots in the city to hang out at and heās looking forward to getting to know the Aryaās better.Ā
