have you seen [ JACK SINGH ] since the storm? some say they look like [ avan jogia ] but they’re [ 23 ] & go by [ THE NOMAD ]. [ he ] lived in halloway for [ two years ] & they are originally from [ ATLANTA, GEORGIA ]. before the town vanished they were studying [ forensic science ] and lived at [ THE DORMS ]. most people knew the [ CIS MALE ] as [ +UNFLAPPABLE ] but i’ve heard they can also be [ - RETICENT ]. for some reason, they feel [ uneasy ] about the town’s disappearance.
hey guys, i’m lilo & this is my baby, jack. i can’t wait to write with everyone! give this post a like & i will slide into your dms.
before halloway
jack was born in atlanta, georgia to indian-american parents. although his parents constantly struggled to make ends meet, jack had a pretty normal childhood. that was until he turned nine and his parents were killed in a freak accident, leaving jack in the custody of his grandmother until her death a few weeks shy of his 19th birthday. with no family and very little money, jack drifted from place to place, taking odd jobs and sleeping in his van. he finally decided to get a bachelor’s degree and was granted a scholarship in halloway.
life in halloway
jack had been studying in halloway university for a couple of years majoring in forensic science. he was always good at science and if he was being honest, he had always envisioned himself working crime scenes and autopsies; much like the characters in his favorite crime shows. low on cash, he got a job as a cook at delta diner, putting his skills he had learned from his nana and the baking club to the test. he had a reputation for being enigmatic, often silent and calm in the face of chaos. people often wonder what is going on inside his head.
the aftermath
even the cool, calm & collected jack singh felt a sense of dread the moment they had all returned to a ghost town. he mostly kept a low profile, going to work and immediately crashing in his dorm room. on his days off he would go out for the occasional beer or a walk through the docks, silently contemplating what his life has become.

THIS IS THE LAST ONE !! i swear it is !! this is my last, my one and only, harry ramano. this is another new muse of mine that i’m exploring who is truly, truly a chaotic mess. like anika, i apologize ahead of time for any harm he will produce in this group. if you would like to plot, feel free to hit me up on my discord ( the mooniestar#8111 )
have you seen harry romano since the storm? some say they look like lorenzo zurzolo but they’re 21 & go by the legacy. he lived in halloway for fifteen years they are originally from milan. before the town vanished they were studying business and lived at uni blvd. most people knew the cismale as resolute but i’ve heard they can also be self-serving. for some reason, they feel uneasy about the town’s disappearance.
BIOGRAPHY
he never wanted any of this ---- wealth and prestige. harry was the bastard son of the ceo of a major conglomerate, the one that was pushed aside and to the streets. the streets of milan were rough, but he and his mother scooted by. though, it more so done on harry’s part than any. the mother that pushed him out of her body abandoned him, too, wanting to party and get wasted as much as possible to forget the mistake she did at such a young age.
maybe that was what set harry out to find out who his father was --- so that he could leave his estranged mother behind in italy. this was proven as to how smart six year old harry was ---- it wasn’t that difficult, right? just ask his mother a few questions, google this and that, then boom. he called his father’s office number and wanted to be sent over to america as soon as possible. harry was flown over with the help of his father’s assistant.
life was not how he thought it would be. harry expected to be in new york city with skyscrapers that reached the heavens. instead, he was driven to a small town where his father already had many children at his disposal - some older than harry and others younger. it was difficult to find his place in the home at first, but soon learned to stay by himself as the family’s black sheep. his siblings couldn’t understand why their father wanted harry there in the first place --- it was because harry was better off than rotting in the apartment where his mother was.
it was evident that harry was his father’s favorite son --- it was never expressed as to why from his father, but the siblings consistently reminded harry of this. it was often that harry had the freedom to do what he wanted. did he want to beat up a guy because he said his hair looked disgusting? sure, go for it. harry’s father would just pay them off to be quiet.
harry was forced to go into business by his father --- in fact, he didn’t want to go to college at all. he wanted to travel the world, get to know himself a little bit more. but according to his father he was set to take over the business instead.
PERSONALITY
resembles ransom drysdale from KNIVES OUT , miguel nunier from ELITE , & chuck bass from GOSSIP GIRL ---- he’s that jerk who would care for himself rather than his friends.
CONNECTIONS
like everything else, i’m quite open to anything! so give me your plots!
HELLO AGAIN !! it is moonie again and this is my second out of three muses --- am i insane? yes. do i regret it? MAYBE. but this is lady bora !! she’s a new muse that i’m exploring, simply because it’s been ages since i’ve written one that’s kind of a ditz. homegirl is smarter than she looks though! if you would like to plot, feel free to hit me up on my discord ( the moonistar#8111 )
have you seen bora ree since the storm? some say they look like shin yeeun but they’re 20 & go by the bubble-brain. she lived in halloway for eight years & they are originally from minneapolis. before the town vanished they were studying pre-veterinary medicine and lived at the dorms. most people knew the cisfemale as sunny but i’ve heard they can also be foolish. for some reason, they feel uneasy about the town’s disappearance. TW!Death
BIOGRAPHY
her mother passed away before she could even remember her ----- but bora’s father said that she was a beautiful individual, in and out. it’s stated that bora inherited her sunny personality from her and perhaps will be the closest connection she would ever have.
much like anika, bora was shielded from many things by her father at a young age. his excuse is his want to protect her and this made sense since it had been the two of them. it was at the age of twelve that bora and her father moved to halloway ---- he got a job offer at the local university as a counselor and it paid well enough to survive, just the two of them.
growing up, bora’s innocence and naivety gave the impression of a ditziness and was often bullied for it. at fifteen, she went home and wept in her father’s arms, who felt awkward at the time because he wasn’t entirely sure how to handle delicate matters such as feelings --- which was ironic because he was a pro at it with his students.
however, it just so happened that her grandmother was in town, wanting to provide enough food for her son and granddaughter, afraid that they would starve if they didn’t have her cooking. she teased bora for her tears, comparing them to a banshee’s cry and urged bora to toughen up because her mother was not here to do her job, and her father was not the perfect individual to do this. so bora tried her best to heed her grandmother’s advice and though it was difficult at first, she made through it.
it wasn’t until she had her first boyfriend that changed everything ---- as her friend once told her; you won’t find love until you love yourself --- and this fell to be true. bora fell head over heels in love with this boy until one day, he left and sent her a half-assed break up text -- “love u. can’t do the long distance thing. bye. </3??” and she was shattered again.
bora had always adored animals growing up and had two cats and one dog. this was enough excuse to go into pre-vet med so that she could play with them all day.
PERSONALITY
resembles aimee gibbs from SEX EDUCATION , aylee from REIGN , & hilda spellman from CAOS --- naive, yet strong, bora tries her best to be a good friend. she’s a marshmallow, a big softy.

i am quite open for anything! so feel free to give me all of them plots!
❄️❄️ –––– have you seen [ ESME MACMILLAN ] since the storm? some say they look like [ DANIELLE CAMPBELL ] but they’re [ 21 ] & go by [ THE TACITURN ].

–––––– well , well if it isn’t me , b , with a broken theme !! but i’m too eager to pay any mind to it right now , and i’ve got homework due at midnight that has to happen after i get this baby posted . hi friends !! very excited to be here . this is my soul baby esme who is just trying her gd best and is stressed out 99% of the time . needs a 12 hour nap and maybe a therapist . summed up in a word ? soft , probably . i hope you love her like i do anYWAY GONNA leave this here and get to plotting so you can also hit me up at b a y#9956 on discord!!
LONDON.
weston and anna macmillan never planned on having a child. they were young and in love, and both had struck the genetic lottery – weston with his brains, anna with her trust fund. while weston was up and coming in the world of corporate law, anna had spent her life in pointe shoes and was at the top of her game as a principle dancer for the royal ballet in london. they were picturesque… perfect, even. until anna found herself to be three weeks late and their dazzling little dream life reached its first hiccup.
that hiccup entered the world screaming a whole nine months later!! tiny blue eyed esme grace macmillan was a fuckin handful even before she was born. as anna went through prenatal checkups, she found that her heartbeat was irregular. further tests concluded that she had hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (hcm) which is a genetic condition that affects the muscles in the heart and causes irregular blood flow. it’s not fatal, but it is hereditary and gets riskier with physical exertion. being a new mother, anna made the decision to shelve ballet and focus on this new chapter of her life.
which was probably a good thing! she loved being a mom, and it was safe to say that having a set of eyes on esme at all times was the right choice. she was restless and constantly full of energy. from a really young age, it became apparent that esme had inherited some of the best parts of her parents. she got her dad’s brains, catching onto things quickly and learning to walk and talk earlier than most. this turned into simple reading and messy writing shortly after. she wasn’t a very social kid though, didn’t talk much.
as soon as esme was old enough, she was put into tiny pink ballet slippers. she took a liking to dance, and this is when they realized she’d also inherited her mother’s natural grace. early on, it looked like she’d easily follow in her mother’s footsteps.
dance really really opened esme up. it was here that she started making friends and began tip toeing outside of her comfort zone and opening up a little bit, but her direction changed when she was six and discovered figure skating.
it was technical and lyrical like ballet, but it was far more challenging. even as a kid, esme loved a good challenge. so her parents bought her a pair of skates, and the rest is history. as she grew up, her weekends were occupied with practices, performances, and eventually competitions. she was a natural. and for the first time there was an air of confidence about her.
though she loved it more than anything in the world, her life soon came to revolve around school and skating. it caused her to miss out on a normal childhood, never really making friends close enough to be invited to sleepovers or birthday parties.
that made the move much easier for esme. when she was 10, her father’s firm went international and he was put in charge of the american branch. thus, the macmillans hopped across the atlantic and moved to halloway for a fresh start, a new adventure.
HALLOWAY.
she took a small break from competitive skating when they moved; it was her parents’ choice in hopes of her actually making friends in new hampshire. and it worked! for a while. esme was still quiet, still a little too book smart and a little less than street smart. even as a kid, she was awkward, but she was kind and clever and for the most part — people liked her.
and life was good for a long time! she got back into skating, and around the time she was thirteen she showed no signs of stopping. in fact, her sights were set on an olympic medal, and though her parents were wary of her inherited condition, they supported her in every possible way.
entering high school, life got a little bit harder. her schoolwork and training kept her pretty tied up, and it was often really hard for her to balance a social life along with that. she didn’t show up to every party. she didn’t really have any interest in going on dates. she kept up with her friends and made time for the important things, but she wasn’t exactly the most open person.
this backfired real quick!! as a freshman, at a bonfire, a senior boy kinda came onto her and when she said nope no thank you, he got pissed. instead of taking rejection Like A Man, he decided to spread a little rumor about them hooking up. this combined with her quiet nature kind of caused her to get a bit of a reputation of being aloof and a bit easy which is so far from the truth. but high school is high school!! and people were fuckin mean about it for a long time thereafter!
around this time was also when her parents sorta…. fell out of love. as in… her father got a little power hungry, a little bored of his life, and like the cliche he is started having an affair. the secrecy of it didn’t last… long and he ultimately left both anna and esme. she felt kind of.. abandoned. like they weren’t good enough almost but.. she and her mom got . even closer because of it tbh. the macmillan girls don’t need no man!!
so she threw herself into her studies and even more so into skating. she trained in the morning and on the weekends, year round. winning competitions made her feel good, and she kept doing so. when she was fifteen, she competed at the world figure skating championship. though she didn’t medal, her scores were impressive and she became an alternate for the us figure skating team at 16. being so close to those five rings was enough to push her further.
she left traditional high school and threw herself even further into figure skating. (this only fueled halloway rumors that she was a bit of a snob akjdfha) after graduating, she enrolled at halloway part time in order to slowly get through her gen eds while training for, yup, you guessed it, the 2018 olympics.
and ya know what? it paid off. at 20, she’d had two world’s silvers and a world’s gold under her belt as she competed in the winter games. her whole life had been leading up to that moment, and she brought home an olympic gold medal in women’s figure skating. that’s right, ya girl fucking peaked.
it was a high, for a while. and she rode it quietly and gracefully. idk she was PROUD ok she worked so hard…. but her incessant need to be perfect and to continuously better herself was nagging in the back of her mind. she wasn’t sure how you could really get better than gold at the olympics.
needless to say, she’s in the midst of a bit of an identity crisis. with her heart condition and ya know aging… she knows figure skating isn’t a forever-thing. so she went back to halloway, taking an interest in medicine and trying to understand her own weakness— a weak heart. she began studying medicine and to fell in love with that profession, but . she honestly can’t stay off of the ice. activate existential dread! she doesn’t actually know who she is!
and then the heckin storm happened smh
NEW HALLOWAY.
with a calm exterior and a notorious knack for being maternal . . . someone , somewhere along the line said hey let’s put esme in charge of the hospital to which she said in a john-mulaney-esque voice . . . huh ? what ? huh ? what ??? huh ???? and then did it anyway
if she’s not on call or working at the hospital , best believe she’s studying because she’ll be the first to tell you she has no business calling herself a doctor
it’s been months!! since!! they disappeared!! and she’s sort of adjusting to this new life which often makes her feel very, very guilty because she doesn’t know what’s happened to her mother at this point
when everything was frozen she still found time to escape and do some skating on the lake aksdjfhas
for the most part, she keeps herself busy ... someone like .... help her tho
PERSONALITY.
esme’s naturally introverted. she likes people, but she’s a textbook people pleaser and gets exhausted quickly when she’s socializing. she’s always been quiet, never the center of attention (unless on ice) and never the loudest voice in the room. when she does speak, though, it’s purposeful and articulate. the sort of ‘she doesn’t talk much but when she does it’s important’ kinda thing idk. she’s not meek ya know.. just reserved
she’s naturally… very kind. cares a lot about other people but struggles to express that which is why she gravitates towards the profession of medicine. she enjoys helping people ya know
ya girl keeps her shit close to her chest. doesn’t really want to bother anyone with her own shit and takes her anger out in physical activity, disassociates from her sadness by reading. a lot of people know her but not on a deep level. tbh does she even know herself? prob not
she’s not a stick in the mud, but she does need a little push every now and then. she lets loose when she’s around people that she’s comfortable with tbh. behind the prim and proper macmillan facade is.. a bit of a goofball. does not hesitate to participate in dramatically karaoke or midnight swims in a lake.
SOFT as fuck but she’s not one to be walked all over. she’s clever as all get out and when snapped at harshly enough won’t hesitate to snap back. she doesn’t get angry to the point of showing it easily, but when she does, she’s very purposeful with her words. don’t underestimate her she hATES being underestimated
competitive as heck. in academics, in sports, in board games. she’s a sweetheart but she will wreck you in spite and malice or sorry bc she just… has a competitive nature
really does give a shit about what people think of her. like… wants to be liked. not being liked by some people in high school really fucked w her bc she just….. can’t help caring about how other people perceive her and wants it to be positively. it’s in part because of how she was raised?? she grew up in a pretty monitored, strict environment between rigorous training and her parents’ world of the rich (will this change after the storm tho??? we’ll SEE)
values honesty like has absolutely 0 time to be lied to and 0 time for bullshit
SO curious, always ready to learn more
will make a fool of herself to see you laugh
a lil bit of amy santiago.. a lil bit of rory gilmore.. a lil bit of caroline forbes..
needs to relax; constantly Anxious
s t u b b o r n
literally never sleeps

someone she was forced to be friend with post-storm. they step on each other’s toes but suck it up for the sake of everyone else
i .. love combining ideas and brainstorming too so!!! we can also do that!!
if you made it this far i’m literally going to cry bc i love you already for reading a rambling like this . aNYWAY !! that’s my esme. feel free to smash the like and i’ll come to you or message me on discord!!
hello ! i’m hannah and i’m so excited to be here. this is the first of my intros for my two characters and below the cut you’ll find a ton of info on maisie lidell, love of my life. i prefer messaging people on disc*rd because i’m so trash at keeping track of tumblr ims so if you want to message me there you can find me at “ this is not It my guy#1455 ”
things become most interesting in maisie’s life when she’s fourteen. though her childhood was happy, albeit a little lonely for an only child, fourteen is when her dad opens a comic book shop in an old mechanic’s garage in town and names it, on his daughter’s advice, infinite realities.
this is the place where she learns to be social, where she learns her most impressive life skills, where she finds all of her favorite hobbies. she becomes a master of board games and by the time she’s nineteen maisie can beat most who challenge her in games like settlers of catan, risk, and four player chess. these games were largely about resource management, political machinations, and keeping an eye on all players on the board. though she makes most decisions with imperfect information, like all people do, she has a talent for seeing as many perspectives as possible and guessing at those she might not fully know.
high school came easily to someone like her. she had a keen mind, a penchant for catching onto the smallest threads and unraveling larger concepts. though she wasn’t necessarily the most social, she wasn’t lacking in outlets and served on both the student paper and their theater department.
when she was a member of their theater department, she found a love for the stage that she didn’t particularly expect. though she was social in her father’s bookstore, this was where she decided for sure that she would be comfortable on television as a meteorologist, a change from what she had previously wanted to do, which was only work with the radar and numbers and not have her face shown if she could have avoided it. her love for theater that was fostered here has continued on to college, as did her enjoyment of being on the student newspaper.
college seems to be the last in her metamorphosis into a more confident being. there’s something charming about how honest she is, how she tries to say the things on her mind, and doesn’t particularly mind how people look at her. she is loud, she takes up space, and she is proud of the person that she’s become. she tends not to apologize for who she is.
maisie declared her major as applied mathematics in the middle of her second semester. though she knew that she always wanted to pursue it, she wanted to dabble in more humanities classes before she decided that would be the thing she wanted. officially, before the world went to hell, she was an applied mathematics major with a double minor in religion and history.
after the storm, most of maisie’s personal relationships were put on the backburner while she tried to organize the students and evaluate where their supplies were at. funny enough, that penchant for board games came in handy and her skills at resource management were more sharply refined than one might have expected.
when she steps up to the plate, she does it with the understanding that this was not the thing that would make her the most friends but she wanted to do everything she could to keep the chaos contained and the people around her safe. the guilt from sitting idly by would have consumed her, as it consumes her now that she’s been ousted.
though she holds grudges, she doesn’t make it known just how upset she is at being ousted. sure her policies weren’t the most freedom-embracing, but everyone had enough food and plenty of water and a bed to lay in at night. though she appreciates having her own room again, she does all that she can to conserve power in the house she’s living in. things are on the verge of chaos once more and she doesn’t know if she can save the students of halloway a second time.

have you seen poppy dubois since the storm? some say they look like veerle dejaeger but they’re twenty & go by the maverick. she lived in halloway for one year & they are originally from antwerp, belgium. before the town vanished they were studying psychology and lived at the dorms. most people knew the cisfemale as erudite but i’ve heard they can also be aloof. for some reason, they feel uneasy about the town’s disappearance.
me not realising we were open for intros ? more likely than u think ! anyways , i'm here now , my name's cindy ( she/her , gmt , 20 ) & i'm rly excited to get things rolling !
❀ 𝓈 𝓉 𝒶 𝓉 𝒾 𝓈 𝓉 𝒾 𝒸 𝓈 .
full name : poppy ingrid dubois .
age : twenty .
birthday : february 1st .
gender + pronouns : cisfemale ( she / her )
sexual orientation : bisexual + biromantic .
hometown : antwerp , belgium .
languages spoken : dutch , french , english .
faceclaim : veerle dejaeger .
distinguishing features : a pair of rimless glasses perched on the bridge of the nose , a red outline of a heart on the inside of her arm , a splattering of freckles across her frame , walks like bambi on ice .
❀ 𝒷 𝒶 𝒸 𝓀 𝑔 𝓇 𝑜 𝓊 𝓃 𝒹 .
poppy is the first and only child to lotte dubois , but the sixth child to her father , dirk . her birth is out of wed-lock ; in fact , it's outside the realm of any form of significant relationship - she's the result of an elusive affair between a girl barely out of her teen years & her boss . it's safe to say that poppy is not , and never will be , welcomed into her father's life with open arms . instead , poppy is raised solely by her mother - until her stepfather comes along when she's ten ( though step-father has never felt like the right term - he's just dad ) .
although she knows her parents love her , she feels like an outsider in her own house - especially when her younger siblings come along ; a pair of twins .
poppy grows a little distant ; she's always naturally been more of a lone wolf . she puts her all into her work ; friendships coming second to her determination for success . she draws , & religiously watches american dramas to perfect her english .
when it comes to university , it was always clear that poppy would be venturing out into the world - nobody had expected america , but that was where she ended up .
❀ 𝒾 𝓃 𝓉 𝓇 𝑜 𝓈 𝓅 𝑒 𝒸 𝓉 𝒾 𝑜 𝓃 .
she's a smart girl ; she excelled early on & never really stopped excelling . she doesn't have a complex around her intelligence , per say , but she's confident in her own abilities & what she wants to get out of life . ( or at least what she expected to get out of life before everything went to shit ) .
as said , she's more of a lone wolf . it's not that she's shy , she's just more of an introvert . she does enjoy the company of other's occasionally , of course , & is an a* listener / shoulder to cry on .
i'd say she puts up a little bit of a front to come across tougher than she is . she's a softie really & cares a lot more than she likes to admit .

ABOUT THE MUN.
what is that? that freaky thing? yes, that’s right, it’s a naked mole rat.
hello all, my name is pepper and what you’re about to see is about to be peak mediocrity. i am usually pretty decent at intros but i really have spent most of today watching love island, and i just spent the past two hours watching pilot pete make horrible decisions, so my brain is officially mush. that said i am going to do my best to make this coherent. to start, a bit about me, i am a taurus. i like trash tv. i’m really craving chicken fingers. i have never met a plate of nachos i didn’t like, and if i could be anything other than a human person i’d be a cloud i think. alright onto the good stuff.
BIO.
*has my feelings surgically removed*
first of all here is her pinterest board (keep in mind marni was kind of the skully inspired muse in a scooby doo rp so that’s why stuff looks a bit spooky)
marni was brought into the world into a weird situation by anyone’s standards, but especially by hers. to start, both her parents were hippies. yes, weed smoking, chakra cleansing, organic grown kale that they got from the farmer’s market where the only store clerk walked around with her tits proudly out, hippies. but they weren’t just any hippies, they were rich hippies. and that somehow made it worse.
clint ‘storm’ vanross and clementine vanross were the proud owners and entrepreneurs of a whole food organic grocery store (think whole foods or trader joe’s), and clemetine later went on to ride the success of their company to create her own website and brand (think goop basically. yes, marni’s mother has sold a candle that smells like her vagina, and yes marni is deeply ashamed of it). both businesses were wildly successful, and so clem and storm quickly went from living and travelling the world in their van to having about six mansions across the world. marni came into their life as their first child around the time they bought mansion two. she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, but that spoon’s handle was made of moon quartz and the silver was organically sourced.
from there on out marni was raised in a weird way. you’d think because hippies were all about free love, that marni would be raised with an abundance of it but that wasn’t exactly the case. her parents were all about giving marni her aunotomy fairly early in life, which sounds good, but really means that marni was simply treated as an adult from the moment she could walk by herself. and she was the adult really. after all, marni was the one who had to convince her parents to enroll her in school (they were determined to let the world be her teacher, and marni simply wasn’t having any of it), the one who had to fix her own meals when all that was left in their fridge was raw tofu, the one who had to clean up her mother’s vomit whenever she went a bit to hard on the moonshine. yes, marni had parents, but she also had forty-something year old children in boho chic attire.
and marni’s parents never understood it. after all, with the way they were they could never understand how their genetics combined to make such a serious girl. one who would look at the moon and not just admire it, but ask how it stayed up there in the first place. how far away was it? how could she get there? and when told to simply enjoy and love it for what it was, would instead march herself to the library and find out the answers herself. marni’s parents and her truly never saw eye to eye, and at a certain point marni stopped trying to. she wasn’t expecting her parents to follow suit, but follow suit they did. marni’s parents gave up on trying to understand her her around the time she was nine. that’s when she moved to halloway, or rather, that’s when they moved her to halloway.
they said it was because of business. the fact was, marni’s parents had been marching her around the world, from state to state and country to country whenver they wanted to start up a new store or run down a new story. yes, sometimes they would leave her (alone, in an empty house, with only the occasional eccentric ‘aunt’ or ‘uncle’ to come by and make sure marni wasn’t dead) for a while for short business trips (the longest being about two weeks) but they always came back eventually. but this was different. her parents set her up in halloway with a nanny named paola, and then they left for the foreseeable future. her mother, to go down to africa to chase a story. her father, to go down to europe and expand the business. they both promised to be back within a month, and they were. but then they left again. and again. and again.
but it was fine. marni and paola got along great. she learned very quickly how to forge her parents signature on school forms. she didn’t need them. she didn’t miss them. but she did desperately want them to want her, and it took marni a long time to realize they just didn’t.
marni was the new girl for a while. she struggled a bit to make friends as the little girl who got more excited by science experiments than barbies. the one who was always the first to raise her hand in class, and the one with the famous parents. most of the kids didn’t know who the vanross’ were but the parents did. and having the occassion adult come up to marni and tell her how they just loved her mother’s zuchini bread recipe, or the all organic popcorn they sold at her father’s store was just... weird. and other kids found it weird too. marni struggled for a while, and was picked on quite a lot but what was she to do other than accept it? all that marni had in her arsenal were facts and scathing words, and mean kids didn’t usually tend to let those stop them.
eventually marni grew up. she went to high school. skipped prom. remained fairly anonymous other than becoming president of the chemistry club, valedictorian and being known as the girl known for making friends with her teachers. she got accepted to harvard and yale for university, but not knowing if it was because of her own accomplishments (which were countless) or because of her parents, she refused them both and decided to stay in halloway. to go to university here. to try and make her own way.
honestly in university marni’s life was similarly uneventful because for the most part she was the quiet type that went to class, went home, and back. she didn’t cause any stir unless you could hear the occasional scathing comment murmured under her breath, or you were a neighbour who marni was screaming at to keep it down. she didn’t even attend a single party unless coerced. she was nobody, and honestly that was how marni liked it. she had never been one for the spotlight. she genuinely preferred to be more behind the scenes, unless there was a need to rise to the occasion.
and then all of this happened y’all. it really went to shit huh. marni is terrified honestly and she just wants to know what’s going on. a lot of people who barely know who she is have probably seen her speaking up and asking questions and getting almost frenzied in her attempt to find the truth because the mystery of all this is driving her insane. no she doesn’t miss her parents particularly, but she does miss what the world used to be and she wants to go back to that, desperately, but she also really just wants to know. like if marni understood what was happening here or even just played a part in future generations understanding, and she was literally still never able to get back... honestly she could still die pretty happy i’m ngl.
PERSONALITY.
*eyes snap open at 3:52am* nobody likes me
blunt. painfully painfully blunt, god. if marni thinks you’re an idiot she will tell you to your face, she really does not care and that absolutely will get her into trouble one day
painfully curious! wants to know what’s happening with this whole situation, god desperately wants to know the truth and mechanics behind it.
cold honestly?? like marni doesn’t know how to comfort people really, she was never really taught how. she isn’t very compassionate, she’s genuinely more on the logical side. will give you the most rational answer even if it does sound kinda of cruel
the voice of reason! the person in your friend group who is the designated driver. also the person in your friend group who would say ‘i told you so’
an overachiever. lives for academic acknowledgement, like those little gold stars on your papers in elementary school are what kept marni going man. huge ass nerd. huge ass bookwarm.
super stubborn. refuses to even entertain the idea of anything magical happening here, and is honestly kind of judgmental of people who think that way because of her parents like marni has very little respect for any hippies i’m not gonna lie
skeptical as hell but we been knew
a know it all! think she’s right about everything !! she usually is but still !!
does not know what to do with emotion. has had a couple, and does not recommend it. would rather die than admit to a feeling.
trust issues galore! does not trust literally anyone ever. if marni trusts you than you’re truly special
HEADCANNONS.
it takes me 3-7 business days to process my feelings
has never learnt to ride a bike cause her parents never taught her rip
loves the smell of books
laughs at horror movies generally. the kind of person who is really hard to scare.
was raised a vegan but loves eating meat. stress eats meat when she’s truly like anxious, and so is really bummed about the dwindling meat supply for more reasons than one.
needs coffee to survive, so the rationing has got her going a bit crazy even though she knows it’s necessary.
has never really gotten truly drunk.
keeps a detailed journal about all of her thoughts about all of this and takes meticulous notes.
is left handed.
can shoot a gun and does have one on her person pretty much at all times. i headcannon that her nanny paola taught her to shoot, and marni isn’t strong at all but she’s a pretty good shot. it’s the only way she has to defend herself honestly.
is redheaded/strawberry blonde zoey and redheaded/strawberry blonde zoey ONLY
bi as hell!

BASIC INFO:
— full name: stevie mckenzie henson
— nicknames: steve, s
— age: twenty-two
— dob: april 28th, 1997
— gender: cis female
— pronouns: she / her
— orientation: bisexual & biromantic
BIO:
— since the start stevie’s life was nothing short of a tragedy, she was born in new york during a chilly night of april just to be left at an orphanage days after, she never met or heard about her parents. she spent most of her childhood wondering if they just didn’t want her or if something happened to them. the only thing she has of theirs is a diamond ring she assumed it belonged to her mother that she wears hanging from a necklace she never takes off.
— since she got there nameless one of the older kids took upon themselves to decide on a name for her, they suggested stevie considering their love for stevie nicks and the little spazz on baby stevie was taken as an approval. her last name changed a lot over the years but now she settled in henson.
— she spent most of her life on the system, never getting adopted, but jumping from foster home to foster home to orphanage and every thing in between. she moved to more places than she can count and she has never understood what a home means.
— at sixteen she decided she had had enough with being rejected constantly, so she dropped out of school and packed her things. she started then running away from the system until she could be free of it at eighteen.
— when she was seventeen she stumbled upon halloway, she was intrigued to say the least and she decided to spend more time there. then a few months turned into a year that turned into six years.
— even though stevie is a high school drop out, she is nothing short of a brilliant girl. she is a quick learned and she can retain a lot of information on her brain so as soon as her eighteen rolled around she decided to take the her ged so she could get into college and make a bright future for herself. she excelled in it so she made her way into college.
— with all the moving she did she picked up several different hobbies that she holds dear to her heart, photography and mechanics being the two main besides her breadwinner, hacking and programming ( which she decided to pursue on her college major )
— after the storm she didn’t feel too much of a difference, she didn’t have anyone waiting for her at home ( besides her cat which she does miss terribly ) but she finds the whole situation incredibly interesting and really wants to figure this out.
PERSONALITY:
— well personality wise my girl stevie is a bit of a mess... at first glance she is an outcast. she lurks in the sidelines, something she picked up on the several schools she attended and ultimately realized is best not to grab any attention to herself.
— is more of a reclused person, she can usually be found at the library editing the pictures she took or coding away ( not so much that anyone since everyone vanished and all that stuff ) or working on her bike that she built from basically scratch from an very old and cheap model.
— but once you get her talking BOY are you in for a treat, she has absolutely no filter at all and she will talk until your ears bleed. she does not know when to stop and she stress talks like no other
— a lover of dad jokes and has so many of them you would think she’s a divorced middle aged white man. bad jokes are really her jam.
— she doesn’t have many people skills and is very socially awkward, social queues? she don’t know them. but she does try her best and she is very sweet and caring under all the awkwardness.
— can also be stoic and ignore you for a long time and is extremely stubborn and once she sets her mind on to something she will get it
— but then again the goofiest person once she lets you in.
