#basically!!!!

bellamy is based on beauty and the beast and is in fact BOTH.

she’s from a small primarily white hick town in south louisiana and has always thought her only living family was her father.

she’s smart as FUCK and pretty much hella into nerd shit but also into weird paranormal things.

she went to LSU and has her masters in aerospace engineering and a bachelors in mechanical engineering. she worked for several years at jacobs in houston in a contract with NASA before moving back home to take care of her ill father and his boat and auto mechanic shop.

she ended up discovering on her mother’s side she has living family, specifically a great uncle who helped paid for her college though she never knew that bc her dad never told her. her mother disowned her family bc they are awful ppl but her great uncle is the head of lefevre industries and he manipulated bellamy into working and living with him by paying for her father’s growing medical bills.

her father died and then, her uncle having copd, passed away later... after bellamy secretly smothered him instead of calling for his live in nurse. it was called a natural death due to his illness and bellamy ran away from it and spent two years on the road doing the one thing she could never do: indulging in her weird love for the supernatural/paranormal. she began a vlog on her travels to various well known haunted/weird places and went viral within the year.

she was contacted by someone from lefevre who informed her that she needed to realize she had some responsibilities to deal with what she inherited. 

apparently she actually DID inherit her uncle’s share of the company, just over half compared to the rest split three ways with distant cousins. the cousins attempted to offer her a way out by buying her shares but realizing her uncle always intended to just use her to piss them off, and that her white cousins looked down on her...

she said fuck you, this is mine and you can’t have it. being that she has ACTUAL experience in engineering she has some loyalty from the board of directors and is currently dealing with her place in the company and the way she’s being treated in the mass media.

oh yeah and don’t forget: there’s some crazy shady shell corporation corruption in this company and she’s going to find out about it and have to figure out what the fuck to DO about it.
