 Valkyrie is the straight-a student who knows things that the teachers don’t. In middle school she used to talk a lot and answer every question, but now she’s quieter. But don’t think she’s not still as bold. If a teacher annoys her she will show them up by teaching the class x10000 better than the teacher. Wants a political career. Everyone loves her but there’s a small minority of people that hate her. Knows everyone in the school. Very social. Student government. Marching band. Better than most people think she’d be in gym, though just barely. Can run really well. Really healthy and beautiful. Writes in cursive. Tutors the kids who ask her. Extremely friendly and will always lend you money and pencils and will never ask to be paid back. Grew up with racist parents and is trying her best to unlearn the racism her parents taught her and be a better ally and checks her privilege a lot.

Daikt either aces or fails, though usually it’s a fail. Pretends he doesn’t care about it, but actually tried his best and it crushes him. Is one of the few not-white kids in the school. All teachers treat him like a hoodlum shitcase. No clubs at all. Wants sports but grades too low. Is really athletic. Outwardly bisexual. Handwriting = scribbles. Not many people know him and the ones who do think he’s great fun or hell on earth. Underage smoking. Somehow lives alone. Lives off of instant ramen. Drops out as soon as he turns 18. Rumors that he’s involved in gangs and sleeps with anyone but only if you give him a 20.  Outside of school: “Do you know English?” “That’s the only goddamn language I know.” 

Félari is both the trashiest and classiest kid. Student government. Underage smoking. Gets so so grades, excels at sports. Wears all black or all white. Local lesbian. Leather jackets and short shorts. Never seen in a dress or skirt. Has dated most of the lesbian/bi/pan girls in the town. Most people who know her like her, she’s fun. The kind of class clown that isn’t annoying but is very awesome. Really artistic. She’ll draw you if you buy her lunch. Sleeps 24/7 or not at all. Uses her white privilege as an #ally.

Izya tried very hard to be friendly and cute, was shy, but at this point is done with everyone’s shit. Dry, witty remarks at everyone. Decent grades unless she stops caring. Sometimes goes to school with the best makeup and clothes and jewelry and then sometimes goes to school right after getting out of bed, pjs and not even brushing her hair. Somehow looks gorgeous anyway. Really nice to you and sweet if you’re not being a stupid ass. Also lives off of instant ramen. Has been dating the same guy since seventh grade. “Why must I be the only sane one?” calls out teachers on their bs. Surprisingly amazing at sports, especially wrestling. 

Rakastava is the sweetest kid int he entire grade. Izya’s boyfriend since seventh grade. Wants to be a doctor. Just wants to help people. Tries to buy people lunch but doesn’t have enough money. Gives people his food just so they don’t go hungry. Gets really good grades but always hides them or tells people he got lower grades than he actual got when asked. No one hates him, he’s just too nice. Writes poetry to Izya. Pure bean. Protect. Protect.
