( cierra ramirez ; she / her ; cis-female ) livinâ in the sprawl can be interesting for sylvia moreno . the twenty-one year old is a music student living in a campus dorm when i met them , they seemed kind of creative , but also kind of adventurous . who knows what theyâll be like ?
aesthetics : pleated tennis skirts worn with leather jackets . bubblegum . coca-cola flavored lipgloss ( specifically , cherry ) . fast 3 a.m. drives with the windows down . ripped fishnets . defending pop punk . neon lights . adrenaline rushes .
whatâs up , iâm bibi , iâm 21 & i never fuckinâ learned how to write good intros !
alrightalrightalright , this is my gal sylvia and sheâs .... well , she tries her best
so sheâs born / raised in black sheep . how depressing , right ? i know . her parents , sofĂa and antonio , met when they were twenty back in the â90s . both black sheep natives & hated it , but neither had the means to leave . so they didnât . instead , they got married three years later in â93 , and a year later had their first child : a son named santiago .
when santiago was three , a new addition to the growing family was added : sylvia . born in â97 on january 20th ( aka the capricorn-aquarius â cusp of mystery and imagination â ) , she was far from the perfect baby , but that didnât stop her parents from caring any less . they were ecstatic to have a little girl .
needless to say , the baby photos are ridiculous and sylvia never wants anyone to ever see them âcause the fashion choices were very fuckinâ questionable !
by the time santiago was six & sylvia was three , their mother gave birth to the final moreno sibling : another boy , francisco .
this makes sylvia the dreaded middle child , but honestly the middle child trope doesnât apply to her ?? both parents were as loving as could be for raising three children in a cramped suburban home in this shitty fuckinâ town . the family solace ended up being church , for sure . as both sofĂa and antonio have always been p devout roman catholics , they brought up their children in the same faith . all children have been baptized , have had communion & were confirmed .
it was a strict upbringing , no matter how warm the atmosphere was , plain & simple . this is partially why sylvia is so reckless and overly-adventurous ; she wants to experience everything she can , no matter if she gets hurt in the process . always the kid with scrapped elbows , maybe a bloody nose , and dirty bruised knees --- prompting her mother to continuously have first-aid in the house & when they went on the go ( which , wasnât too often , but regardless . )
sofĂa and antonio still work at the church they frequented ( and still do frequent , work or personal reasons . itâs also the church they met in & eventually got married in ! talk ab history , huh ? ) ; franciscoâs only finishing high school this year , heâs so unsure of what he wants to do . santiago , on the other hand , got out of this hell & went to fresno state / craig school of business to complete his bachelor's degree from an aacsb . he also served two extra years of professional work in that time , and is currently doing full-time mba at ucla on a scholarship .
yeah , itâs a lot to live up to when it comes to business boy santiago . ofc the moreno parents are extremely proud of their eldest & theyâre lenient of their youngest âcause hey , not everyone knows what they want to do at such a young age .
but then thereâs sylvia , middle child & only girl . and sheâs always loved music , and sheâs always banging on pots & pans & whatever other usable surface / object she could find around the house to drive everyone else crazy , because she didnât realize how awful it sounded at the beginning . she remembers her first set of drums when she was ten --- wasnât even hers , honestly . was one of her cousins , a christmas gift gone to waste because he didnât even use it . so eventually , they decided it would be better to just let sylvia take it .
they soon enough invested into drum lessons for her around her eleventh birthday , âcause itâs been like a year since & they knew she wouldnât stop drumming away whenever she could , and her love bloomed more -- much to her parentsâ dismay .
although supportive of their children , sofĂa and antonio wish sylvia took her life & education more seriously --- â why couldnât you become a nurse or something... less fickle ? â // â you wonât get anywhere with music , mija , please think ab your future . â // â we just want whatâs best for you . â
which is bigger bullshit than this awful town !Â
sylvia never told them what exatly she was going to college for , all they knew is that she was going . long story short : they were v upset she â selectively told the truth â ( because she didnât tell them anything , so it couldnâtâve been lying ! )
anyway , yeah . she still plays drums and sheâs gotten hella good at it . also in between , managed to take some singing lessons ( singing at church wasnât ever enough for her , honestly . ) ; sheâs rooming with jade vandermeer , & theyâre bff honestly alongside sage wells & nessa belfrey !! we stan iconic girl gangs . her & jade have a lot of jam sessions .
sometimes , said jam session is at 2 a.m. etc which annoys the fuck out of the others in the building , oops !
sylvia will make multiple playlists for friends , a real spotify queen
instagram hoe af , catch her modeling & posting videos all the time
despite her passionate focus on music , when sylvia was in high school she was actually captain of the girlsâ volleyball team
to this day she still considers herself to be roman catholic , however it isnât as intense as it was growing up now that she isnât directly under her parentsâ influence anymore
here is her pinterest board !!Â
a true ride or die . she would lit put herself on the line for someone important to her , no questions asked sort of thing
probably programmed her siri to call her â bubblegum bitch â once or twice , but then undid it because it went off in public & thatâs just embarrassing
defends pop punk a lot more than one might think though !!! but like , wow does she stan lana del rey lmao what a fuckinâ aesthetic icon !
uhhhhh idk what else to write ...... mayb some wc ideas :
some exes / good , bad , mutually ended , etc . ( open to m/f/nb . )
friends with benefits ? no strings attached sort of thing ! ( also open to m/f/nb . )
music friends !!!!! friends in general anyway lmfao who am i kidding
maybe sylvia babysits someoneâs kid or pet for some extra cash ??? she still a college student , the grind is real .
party friends
