LIFE SUMM.

grew up in ottawa, canada and they’ve only lived there, los angeles, and malibu.

elementary school and middle school was normal, but high school was a little more difficult, especially when peyton joined the hockey team.

peyton was born intersexual (so that's it's not confused with being transgender — someone's gender identity who doesn't match with their gender at birth — intersexuality is when they're born with sexual anatomy that doesn't fit the typical definitions of 'male' or 'female') and peyton's family treated them normal, they didn't see peyton as any different. so when it came to getting changed in the locker rooms, the first time was awkward because peyton noticed internally … they weren't the same as their male teammates. 

(tw) junior year is when one day some fuck turd noticed peyton when changing in the locker room, the boys harassed peyton and then it got spread around school. at first, people couldn't believe it and they were just going by word, so they did consider him 'freakish'. but they would still be like “oh that’s peyton, he’s cool and all but he’s some kind of freak.

by senior year, peyton didn't give a fuck about them, besides they were becoming young adults and that shit was getting old. now it was just dealing with fuckboys and jocks that thought they could get over with peyton, but peyton was a bitch and they thought the attitude lu gave them wasn't worth it.

with all this 'its a girl thing' and all this 'its a guy thing', peyton did some self-exploring and realized they didn't want to be stuck to shit like that, especially with their anatomy, peyton lu identified — and still does — as demimale.

(tw) peyton hated partying, but they believed the stereotypical thing where 17 & 18 year olds were supposed to be drinking and trying different drugs their senior year. listening to idiotic 'friends' peyton went to a few to find out they really really didn't like partying. when it comes to that, peyton regrets losing their v-card again, because they believed that's when and how it was supposed to happen.

in college, peyton had it a little bit more easily, people kind of minded their business and it was a lot more independence. they weren’t really looking for love so when they ran into the then love of their life, it was accidental. things were a bliss when peyton was with him, the guy was more than accepting of peyton, constantly embracing them and encouraging them to embrace themselves. 

sophmore year, at 19, peyton gets pregnant, peyton’s freaking out and although abortion wasn’t an option in their mind, they still couldn’t figure out how the fuck they were gonna manage or what they were going to do. peyton was starting to get a little popularity due to posting covers on youtube, then things were starting to get rocky with him and they had an audition, how was a baby going to fit into all of this?

so a few weeks later, peyton makes the announcement, he walks out on peyton, peyton’s family is like more than overjoyed (especially his mom and sister) and offer their help. in the last months of their pregnancy, they did have to take the offers of help and the first two months of bringing baby girl, alayla nova merrick home. but four months after giving birth, peyton has everything else around them together and in order and less of the familial help is needed, but the father is still a ghost, and peyton’s trying to get a grasp on this new change of life.

QUIRKS.

Tobin Lee Carter was born and raised in Pasadena. Her mother was an artist and her father was a songwriter, she had a happy life with them up until their deaths. They were in an accident on the way to her high school graduation and after that Tobin began to spiral.

After high school and her parents passing she didn’t really know what to do. She started partying in West Hollywood a lot, she started hanging out with the wrong people and was on a dark road. There’s always a light at the end of the tunnel and thankfully this time around it was the unplanned pregnancy. eight months later her daughter poet made her way into the world. Tobin used it as her time to get her shit together, after losing everyone she now had someone and was no longer afraid to face the world.

Two years later while out grocery shopping, Tobin was stopped and asked if she had ever considered modeling. She laughed it off, used to being stopped by scammers while she was growing up. When running into the lady for a second time a few weeks later she thought what was so bad about just looking into it. Eventually she agreed and her modeling career took off shortly after.

Fast forward five years and tobin is still modeling full time while being a mom full time. having a seven old daughter and being a supermodel can be difficult but she enjoys being able to bring poet to work with her and love even more when they get to do projects together.

Tobin is a gentle soul, she loves deeply and falls in love very easily but believes that you fall in love with multiple people in your life.

She’s a total hippie, instead of being the crazy cat lady she’s the crazy plant lady.

Poet is literally her best friend, it’s the two of them against the world. They laugh a lot and have fun and are super silly together. They walk the red carpets together and designers are always begging to dress Poet for fashion weeks, who’s really the supermodel??
