You know, I should really get to uploading my stuff actually

So remember that one pic I recently drew? Here is a good chunk of the cast to that story!

From left to right its Victor, Bennie, Susan, Shelly, Carlton and Deanne!

Name: Deanne Fletcher Pronouns: She/Her Sexuality: Lesbian Height: 4'11'' Age: 25 Bio: Deanne grew up in a small southern town in a very strict Christian family. Her mom and dad had very old-fashioned views on everything from gender to sexuality to the kind of people you should associate with. Deanne and her brother David fell in line. Because of this, Deanne battled with compulsive heterosexuality for the first 22 or so years of her life.

Deanne spent most of her childhood life doing whatever she could to please her overbearing mother. She went to church every Sunday, she got top grades in all her classes, she dated a nice catholic boy through most of high school, and she tried her best to lose the extra belly weight her mother hated.

However, no child is a perfect obedient robot, even Deanne had her moments of rebellion. Her main rebellion was her best friend; Andy. Deanne's mom made her disapproval of Andy very clear from the get-go (mainly because both Andy and her moms are out and proud lesbians). But Deanne didn't care; Andy was the best friend she could have asked for.

The two girls did everything together, they shared classes, homework answers, sleepovers, everything. The only thing they never talked about was Andy's giant crush on Deanne. It was obvious, neither of them needed to point it out. Andy held herself back from pursuing it because she knew Deanne was straight. Deanne tried not to think about it too often because she wanted to be straight.

Eventually, the time for college acceptance comes and Deanne gets a letter from big-name university a few cities away. Her parents try to talk her out of it, but she falls in love with the idea of it and decides to go. Meanwhile, Andy's less than stellar grades get her into a state college in the opposite direction. The two women grow apart, never completely losing contact, but not quite having the same closeness as before.

Finally, away from her childhood home, and the pressures of her conservative parents, Deanne's able to admit to herself what she's been feeling her whole life. She's not straight, she doesn't even really like guys, she's a lesbian. She's a lesbian and was in love with her best friend and it was a missed opportunity.

Deanne does what most freshly out lesbians do in college and enjoys herself. She goes on dates, has some fun, and tries and fails to forget about Andy. Eventually, she graduates from college, and then vet school and when she finds work in the same city that Andy now lives in she sees an opportunity to rekindle... something.

Andy has a girlfriend at this point - Raven, but they're looking for a roommate to join their rent agreement. Deanne is a poor college graduate looking for somewhere to live, it doesn't take the two degree-holding women to add 2+2 to get 4. Deanne moves in.

The two fall back into friendship as if they never took a break. Raven is off at work half the time and the two spend a lot of alone time. Raven and Andy are in a (very healthy) poly relationship so it doesn't take long for Andy to ask Deanne if she'd be interested in dating.

Deanne very quickly agrees and the two have a whirlwind honeymoon romance. Deanne struggles a bit with jealousy (this is her first poly relationship, so sue her), but she doesn't want to jeopardize how happy she is, so she does her best to get to know Raven and get along with her.

The two actually have a lot in common. They both have a soft fondness for Andy and love to talk about all her quirks, teasing her. They both love a good murder podcast and tea in the mornings when it's still a little cold out. They both love cats.

It has been almost six years since Deanne Hastings disappeared. That doesn't stop me from trying to keep the fight to find her alive. Since Deanne's disappearance in 2015, I have quietly collected and presented what information I could (information from almost half a dozen sources that I believe to be quite valuable) to the authorities, only to watch it be buried in what at time feels like a deliberate cover up. One thing I can tell you is that around the time of her disappearance, I emailed Deanne, knowing full well that she was trying to escape a bad situation. The bizarre response I received from her email wasn't from her. 

Name: Raven Quinlan Pronouns: she/her Sexuality: Lesbian Height: 6'1'' Age: 26

Bio: Imagine a jeff bezos that is a decent person and also non-binary. Their name is Sol Quinlan, and they are the CEO of a very profitable high-tech company. They live a comfortable lifestyle but donate a majority of their bank account to helping queer youth and other charitable endeavors. They also use their estate (complete with well-paid staff to maintain it) as a foster home.

They have a bit of a bleeding heart, bringing home a myriad of kids at any given time, but they only adopt a few that really worm their way into Sol's heart. The kids they do end up keeping are Pelor, Neptune, and Raven.

Raven was an orphan, never having any idea of either of her parents and she grew up bouncing from foster home to foster home. She was AMAB which only made things harder as she insisted on dressing like a girl and being treated by one. She was very lucky to find herself in Sol's home and with two very loving, protective siblings.

Raven was always a stoic and serious girl as well as very gothic and strange. She never had very many friends, choosing mainly to stick to herself and focus on her studies (and her taxidermy hobby). By the time she was in college she had decided she would go into her parent's business.

She graduates with a business degree (mba? who knows?) and starts working at her parent's company where she fucking kicks ass. As an asian trans woman she has to often work twice as hard to get the respect she deserves. Sol does their best to run a safe business, but people are still assholes. Raven know she's got a huge opportunity most people like her wouldn't get and she works extremely hard to take advantage of it.

So busy at work, Raven doesn't have many friends as an adult either. She has a lot of sex on the side, but never anything serious, until Natasha. Natasha is sweet and romantic and sharp as a knife and it isn't long after their first encounter in a sex club that she's managed to drag Raven out of her shell and go on a date with her. It doesn't take too long after that for the two to make it official.

They have a whirlwind romance that complete knocks Raven for a loop. For the first time, ever, she's got something other than work calling for her attention. It's beautiful and it lasts not nearly long enough. Natasha has a terminal illness. She's known about it for the majority of her life, she tells Raven about it on their first date, they both know that it will catch up eventually and eventually it does.

Raven doubles down on her workaholic tendencies not wanting to give her brain the space or time to miss her. She pushes people away, not wanting to get close to anyone after Natasha. But life has a funny way of convincing you to do things you don't want to do.

Sol's company gets targeted in a federal investigation. It's crap, Raven knows it's crap, she knows that the company is completely free of any kind of criminal activity. But her parent hires a lawyer anyway to 'cover their bases'. The lawyer is Andy and she's hired to do her own investigation into the company looking for any hint of white collar crime so the company can get ahead of it.

Raven winds up working very closely with Andy, answering questions and helping her investigate the offices and personnel. Andy is immediately smitten with her and Raven does her best to ignore that, they're working together after all. But as soon as her contract is over Andy asks if they can go out sometime and Raven agrees despite herself.

At first, it's just sex, but Andy is very charming and sweet and her smile is beautifully familiar and soon the two are dating and they move in together.

An old love of Andy's, Deanne's needs a place to stay and Raven doesn't think twice about letting her. Raven has always been poly and she's come to love Andy very dearly and she sees the way Andy's face lights up just talking about her old friend.

Name: Sandra "Andy" Hayes

Pronouns: She/Her

Sexuality: Lesbian

Age: 25

Height: 6'6''

Bio: Andy was adopted by two women, Beth and Patricia, shortly after she was born. They were (and are) very loving, nurturing parents. She grew up mostly happy.

Andy was one of those unfortunate kids that other kids find easy to pick on. Maybe it was because she was gay and proud of it. Maybe it was because she had two moms. Maybe it was because she was the tallest kid in her school through all of elementary and middle school.

Either way, Andy made her way through with the help of her best friend Deanne. Andy certainly doesn't want to be the lesbian stereotype, but yeah, she falls in love with her best friend. Deanne doesn't seem to reciprocate the feelings, so Andy tries her best to move on, but Deanne's always there in the back of her head somewhere, as the first girl she fell in love with.

The two move apart as Andy goes to college, and it is there that Andy falls in love with being a defense attorney- mostly because she hates cops and loves arguing. She becomes fairly successful - but not very rich. She mainly takes jobs that she has a strong belief in - not ones that necessarily pay well. Because of this she lives in a (shitty) apartment with a friend of hers, Rex.

Every so often, her meager lifestyle prompts her to take a case with more money attached. One such case involves helping a group of execs get their high-tech company out of legal trouble. Andy thought the whole thing was going to be miserably boring until she met Raven.

Raven will eventually get her own post, because I'm mentally ill, but the main point is this; she's hot, she's tall, she's intelligent, she's dominant, and she's emotionally unavailable. She's Andy's fkn kryptonite, it's ridiculous.

The two women get very horny and have tons of sex and it's all very fun, but Andy has never been the type of woman who can keep her heart out of things and it's probably only a few months before she's waxing poetic about love and devotion in Raven's ear. It isn't long before they're officially girlfriends. About a year after knowing each other the two move in together.
