Elliott grew up in a seperate household, his father left his mother when he was eight for another woman. Elliott’s mother struggled to keep them above water as she was a nurse so trying to juggle an eight year old and her career was difficult. So as he grew up, Elliott worked hard in school but also working whatever jobs he could get from fast food places to cleaning. Even if his mother begged that he enjoy his youth whilst he could, the only guilty pleasure he had was singing, which he tried to make a job out of.

Though as he got older then turning 21, Elliott found he made a lot more money working through bars or venues performing sets. Making a name for himself even if it’s a small one. Though he still worked some small jobs on the side, he dedicated more time into his singing as his mother was doing better now that she had found someone.

echo is a loud italian woman who takes no shit from anybody and doesn't like to be told what to do (except for in the bedroom)

she's a feisty little thing and will beat a grown ass man senseless (and has). she's tiny, but she can take you. only with good reason though, not just for the hell of it

she's a very sexual person. she'll literally fuck any human with a pulse

she's pretty all over the place. she has some adhd & add tendencies and tends to bounce around all over the place

she's normally really nice but can and will sass you if you've annoyed her

echo can be your best friend or your worst nightmare, it's your choice

she's very social and very talkative

can get pretty annoying

goes from talking english to italian and back

kind of a brat

likes to tease, but always satisfies in the end because she knows how aggravating it is to not finish

she loves scary stories and will tell them all night long. however, she gets extremely paranoid and probably shouldn't get involved with anything scary. she'll probably end up in your bed because she's scared

is still a child at heart and loves sleepovers, watching funny movies and singing and dancing around like a maniac

Meadow Persephone Laurent is the result of a polyamorous relationship, and as such grew up in an unconventional household in Mississippi.

She is the oldest of four children on her mother’s side (her one father has children from another relationship who are estranged from him, so Meadow chooses not to count them among her siblings).

Her family owned a successful seafood restaurant which enabled her parents to help pay for her to attend college.

She grew up in a loving, accepting, liberal household despite living in a conservative town. This made it much easier for her to come out as pansexual and polyamorous later in life, after she met a couple in college and they became a throuple.

In college she majored in women’s studies, not sure what she wanted to do with her life

She was in college getting her master’s degree when her family’s business was destroyed by a hurricane. 

This resulted in her having a hefty amount of student loan debt she couldn’t pay back (even after working during school and getting her master’s degree), so she chose to move to Las Vegas, having heard from her younger sister that Dark Secrets was a good place to work.

She initially worked in the club as a dancer, before being trained as a bartender instead (using the skills she picked up from working during college).

Rikki was born “Feather Rhiannon Laurent” in a most unconventional household. One instance being that her parents were what would be considered hippies. Everything was organic, from their food to their clothes. Another instance was her polyamorous parents. Her mother Daisy had two ‘life partners’ in the form of Don and Eric. Between the three of them, they had Rikki’s two brothers and her sister with Eric and Daisy and Don’s own three children who no longer speak to him. 

She was raised with liberal beliefs, despite growing up in small-town Mississippi. Her parents owned a successful seafood restaurant on the Gulf. Their town considered them ‘strange’ and ‘unnatural’ as a result. of their nontraditional lifestyle. The kids’ names didn’t help matters; the eldest daughter was Meadow, her brothers were Lark and Orion, and then along came Feather.

When Rikki was eighteen, she went to Las Vegas for college on her parents’ dime. She started working at Dark Secrets, first as a waitress in order to make some money to live off of to stripper once Hurricane Hermine slammed into the Gulf of Mexico and nearly destroyed the restaurant in its entirety. Rikki ended up dropping out of college to work at the club full-time, leaving her initial dream to be a human behavior analyst in the dust. 

Personality:

what personality? Kidding. She’s someone very guarded and private, but she’ll talk to/flirt with anyone. She grew up accepting of other people’s lifestyles.

Headcanons:

She’s still in touch with her family. They’re actually very accepting of her job as a stripper, but due to other societal pressures, they keep it under wraps. They simply tell others she’s an independent contractor in the entertainment business. 

Her father, Eric, has a (relatively) new girlfriend who has accepted their lifestyle, so now Rikki likes to joke she now has two dads and two moms. “It’s a never-ending circle of dad jokes and ‘have you asked your mother? have you asked your father?” 

Has zero idea what actual love looks like, only because she was told to save her love for someone worthy and she’d know what it looked like. Given the manual and not the tools.
