this is her fourth[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]In Depth Appearance[/b][/color]◄ [indent]fauna's face matches very well to her name. all of her features are naturally doelike and gentle, eerily so - her eyes are brighter than the sun, glaringly blue and wide to the point where you can see the rims of each iri. her eyebrows are even more prominent, always half-raised and half-furrowed, thick and heavy. the bridge of her nose is very slight and small, littered with freckles, then the tip is slightly upturned and squared like a deer's. her lips seem to have permanent strawberry stain on them, the cupid's bow sweetly rounded and the corners of her mouth dimpled into her cheeks. she has a heart shaped face to accentuate all of these feats, with a pointed chin that juts out a bit. her body is diminutive and unimpressive, however. she is tall for a biological female, standing at five foot nine, and very thin from a history of poor eating habits, weighing in at one hundred and six pounds. her legs are the longest part of her body, rather disproportionate even - she flaunts that fact with skirts and shorts whenever she's able to. all of her limbs are delicate leave for the notches: her knees and elbows are knobby, all angular and far too pointy for her to comfortably be in close quarters with people. she's not very well-developed, either, with no bust to speak of and little hips.[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]Habits & Quirks[/b][/color]◄ [indent]- fauna constantly chews her lips, which is probably the reason they're always a cherry colour. you might find her covering half her face to hide the little bleeding nicks that crop up every now and then. - fauna has a jaunty way of walking, taking giddy steps that excite her figure more than it usually is. - she somewhat dances wherever she goes, moving her hands through the air in fluid motions, twirling her fingers and splaying them like she's just given a groundbreaking speech, et cetera. - this isn't so much of a habit as it is a bodily malfunction, but fauna is [i]always[/i] cold. she pushes herself as close to others as possible to treat this disorder, and is something of a "body heat thief." - she laughs at everything. it's usually just to make people be more comfortable, considering fauna's laughter is a soothing sound to hear, but an unnecessary quirk in most situations.[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]Likes & Dislikes[/b][/color]◄ [indent]LIKES - changing her hair on impulse - doing people's makeup/grooming - cooking/domestic duties - social events - meeting new people - taking the lead (no matter the situation) - making pet names for people DISLIKES - being pranked (though she has no problem messing with others) - most team activities - waking up early - listening to other people's music - sports - technology - long conversations[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]Fears & Phobias[/b][/color]◄ [indent]fauna is fairly claustrophobic, but only to an extent. additionally, she has a minor fear of public speaking - she's terrified of stumbling over her own words or being misunderstood in any way.[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]Good Personality Traits[/b][/color]◄ [indent]clever . brave . honest . humorous[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]Bad Personality Traits[/b][/color]◄ [indent]self-indulgent . self-destructive . irresponsible . chaotic[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]Personality[/b][/color]◄ [indent]at first glance fauna seems a person whom time has passed by. she is someone who has reached an age at which the world no longer resembles the one in which she learned to survive. the problem is that, for her, the world was never as she wanted it to be, and she never quite fit into it. she is continually confronting the gap, refusing to admit that her perceptions might be wrong. she can of course be very pleasant, so long as she perceives that others treat her with courtesy, and respect the things about which she cares. but when someone fails to follow her protocols in an interaction it immediately throws her into a fit of rage and you have violated them. it is not that she wants her way because it is her way, but because she believes that way is right, fair, and respectful. her bravery is probably harmful to her, however. she tends to be incredibly honest. fauna's straightforwardness is refreshing when couched in careful terms, but she is not renowned for her diplomacy... she can be downright blunt, much to the chagrin of anyone on the receiving end. she is very independent in her disposition, unable to speak about her emotions freely. because she strives to 'move right along,' she isn't likely to carry baggage of the past. the apparent unemotional aspect about her is that she doesn't make her feelings overt easily; her composure often hides her true thoughts, despite being an utterly loyal and sincere girl. fauna's independence is built by her explorative side and philosophy... her decisions are often made based on the amount of freedom given by the choice she's made, and as a result, sometimes a good opportunity is turned down because of it's need for commitment. her greatest shortcoming is that she is naïve. she is a girl whose personal life is in such chaos that she relies on “rules” in order to provide concrete support. otherwise she could not function and would drown in the disorder and uncertainty of everyday life. if one slip is allowed to slide, all of civilization is bound to follow. psychologically, fauna is like an abandoned child searching for her parents. her core emotional needs continue to go unmet because she did not have those needs met in childhood and she never learned how to appropriately meet those needs for herself. she pursues core emotional needs in unskillful ways while healthier, more adaptive people move through life engaged in more 'advanced' psychological endeavors like building long-term marriages and conducting philanthropy. she doesn't give herself much structure. self-care is a notion that seems overwhelming much of the time, and social support seems like a distant memory. she chugs diet coke for breakfast, begrudgingly exercises, and all too often treats her friends like afterthoughst. and when she encounters strangers, like some shop clerk, the default mode is to be detached and rude. this stems from a "you're guilty until proven innocent" rule of thumb that she has for most people (a logical survival strategy stemming from her history). she doesn't just live like an adolescent whose parents are away for the weekend. she feels alone and aimless on the inside in a profound, existential sort of way. she sleeps with men for whom she feels little or nothing. it's why she wakes up in the middle of the night and looks at the hairy body lying next to her with observable disgust. fauna is living an uninspired, fairly dysfunctional life. it's more than that—there's something uncomfortable about watching her, observing the intricacies of her life unfold. everything about her is cold and aggressive. looking into her eyes, as pretty as they may be, feels the same as staring into a fixed scowl of anger. "being" with her is starting to feel tiresome. something about her discontent, and her vivid way of expressing it, makes fauna resonate powerfully with others who come from backgrounds completely different from hers. she effortlessly attracts people to herself. it is tempting to inhabit her point of view and revel in her cantankerousness rather than try to deduce what is wrong with her. most noticeable of her peculiarities is how extremely judgmental she is of almost everything and everybody. she criticizes and philosophizes about people who are boring, people who are insecure, and, above all, people who are artificial. fauna carries this penchant for passing judgment to such an extreme that it often becomes extremely funny. she could easily be chalked up to a “dumb blonde” (brunette?) type of girl. she is clearly not book-smart, but she could never rightfully be titled “dumb.” she tries her hardest to seem intelligent, and always tries to spit out witty comments, but fauna is far behind the crowd in this sense. whenever she pipes up with something she thinks is clever, it's always knocked right back down with hard stares from others. and if she tries to participate in intellectual debates and conversation, well, fauna can't talk about much else than her (not well remembered) crappy public school education.[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]Place Of Origin[/b][/color]◄ [indent]victoria, canada[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]Background[/b][/color]◄ [indent]fauna was born right in paris to an obviously francophilic mother. her mother, blanche, dressed her in lovely garments, making her a living doll of sorts, and life was generally happy between the single working-class mother and 'petite doll' girl. they stayed near the cheaper, more dangerous areas of the capital, but of course none of that mattered when they could be happy in each others' presence. then when fauna was five she began to suffer from epilepsy. not entirely physical, no, only in her temporal lobe—it was recurrent, not immediately diagnosed, because little fauna's complaints of voices and auras was believed to be a child's imagination. then she began to have fits of anger, where seemingly out of nowhere she attacked blanche, threw boiling pots at the woman, tore apart couches and the wood of their floors. blanche could tolerate this hysteria until fauna was six and in first grade. she grabbed another student who laughed at her 'silly' manner of dressing, bashed his head against the tile to the point of bonecracking, and proceeded to dislocate her teacher's arms when an attempt was made to control her. her destruction only ended when she was knocked upside the head by a chair. when sent to be treated for a concussion, only then were fauna's epileptic episodes discovered. she wasn't cured, so to speak, but still she was an embarrassment to her mother. in that case they moved to french-speaking canada. her destructive history was left behind in france, and fauna was allowed to 'reset' in victoria. when she was eleven, she visited family in california and her grandparents informed her of a camp that would supposedly restore her to health over the summer. she was twelve by the time she first came to liberty, and luckily enough, fauna was much less chaotic once the summer was over. because of this, she was sent back every year following under her mother's demand.[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]Miscellaneous[/b][/color]◄ [indent]fauna suffers from temporal lobe epilepsy, but her seizures are uncommon. she typically needs a bad trigger to actually set them off.[/indent] ►[color=7bcdc8][b]Extra[/b][/color]◄ [indent]mmmmmmmmm still drawing i guess!!

has very chiseled features, with high and sharp cheekbones that make him look more of a statue than like a teenager. his jawline is more defined, jutting out slightly towards his ears, all points and angular. he seems to be made up of angles, actually, with his bony figure 6-foot and one hundred fifty pound figure - not the healthiest weight to be. he carries minimal fat simply from poor eating habits and is mostly lean, long muscle, with more dancer's legs than a brawler's, and spindly arms made more for flexibility than bulk. his torso is in a vague v-shape, and the rest of his body is straight down, with no shapely silhouette to him at all. he is not exactly distinctive outside of having a very jack skellington-esque body. fox has sapphire, feminine eyes that give no way into his soul. his brow is the only giveaway of his personality, always furrowed and focused like he's studying whoever he is with. his complexion is porcelain pale and usually blemish-free, simply because he doesn't eat anything that would affect his skin poorly and anything that interrupts the perfection streak gets scratched and picked off almost immediately (suppose it's anxious hands, or something along those lines). similarly, he has crescent-shaped scars in his forearms at almost all times, or just vertical lines if he is feeling more rampant.[/indent] ►[color=0072bc][b]Habits & Quirks[/b][/color]◄ [indent]- when things are not going fox's way, he will dig his nails into his skin and draw his aggression into himself rather than attack the other person (sometimes that impulse is too driven to ignore, however). - to express his impatience in any situation, fox will tap his feet and look around as if he is losing interest. usually it's just a signal to whoever he's with that they have to hurry the pace. - fox tilts his chin up to subtly show dominance, as it gives him a little more height and a general 'too good to be here' vibe. - his shoulders are always squared, and his back is always straight - fox never seems to lose his immaculate composure. - fox's hands are never visible whenever he is interacting, for no particular reason. it just seems like he's hiding something, but being dodgy is nothing new for fox bellamia.[/indent] ►[color=0072bc][b]Likes & Dislikes[/b][/color]◄ [indent]- likes: travelling, social events, a chance at leadership, puzzles/any sort of 'brain exercise,' literature dislikes: being spoken down to, media, mealtimes, camaraderie, staying in one place for too long[/indent] ►[color=0072bc][b]Fears & Phobias[/b][/color]◄ [indent]as much as he seems like a self-confident asshole, fox is actually terrified of failure and losing his stunning reputation. he avoids getting himself in trouble as best as he can, and while he doesn't always apply himself in the best way, he ensures that nothing is done 'wrong.' if his attempts fall flat, fox does not take it well.[/indent] ►[color=0072bc][b]Good Personality Traits[/b][/color]◄ [indent]quick-witted . extremely intelligent . rational . adaptable . resourceful . charismatic[/indent] ►[color=0072bc][b]Bad Personality Traits[/b][/color]◄ [indent]harsh . manipulative . boastful . self-obsessed . arrogant . hot-headed . hostile[/indent] ►[color=0072bc][b]Personality[/b][/color]◄ [indent]fox's overall “style” of interacting involves considerable, persistent, maladaptive aggression, which, when confronted, is met by either more insistent anger or very depressed withdrawal. fox embodies arrogance at its finest, and possesses characteristics common to narcissistic personalities. he is principally defined by the fact that he is narcissistic to the most pathological extreme. what distinguishes him from this vanity alone is his penchant for aggression. he actively seeks the superior or dominant position in any relationship or encounter. he abhors submission to any entity that could be viewed or conceptualized as a “higher power” or authority, even though he'll easily sink to that level when his guard is down. fox is fundamentally at war with anything that stands in the way of his unrestrained pursuit of his desires. some will accede to or give assent to demands placed on them when it is expedient to do so, but he never truly subordinates his will. bellamia is ruthlessly self-advancing, generally at the expense of others. he actively and deliberately seeks to exploit and victimize others when to do so will further his own ends. fox tramples the rights and needs of others to satisfy his own desires. probably from this is where he has developed a pathological disdain for the truth - truth is the great equalizer, and fox always wants to maintain a position of advantage. so, he deliberately plays very loose with the truth when he's not flat out lying to con or dupe you. even worse, he lacks internal “brakes.” he does not arrest himself when he's on his missions and exercises little control over his impulses. in more controlled times of mania, fox does his best to appear benign on the surface and to veil all his aggressive agendas. his use of tactics to conceal his intentions while simultaneously getting the better of others makes him most dangerous during this time, almost a wolf in sheep's clothing. however, it is important to note that fox is made up of phases, and this phase is not commonly visited. in a similarly rough phase, he seems senseless, remorseless, and completely empathy-devoid. he possesses a superficial charm and glibness and is extremely parasitic. being devoid of any empathy-based sense of bonding to others, having virtually no conscience, and having such a pathological sense of superiority, fox feels entitled to prey on those he sees as weaker and remorselessly engages in predatory aggression. fox hurts people by definition. as strange as it may seem, though, inflicting pain on others is not his principal aim. he simply wants whatever it is he desires and is willing to run roughshod over anyone else to get it. getting his way is his main desire, and in the process, others often get hurt. as a child he had some quality that made people look at him, then look away, then look back at him, troubled at something foreign. something looked out of his eyes, and was never there when one looked again. fox moved quietly and talked little, but he could enter no room without causing everyone to turn toward him. he made people uneasy, but not so that they wanted to go away from him. men and women alike wanted to inspect him, to be close to him, to try and find what caused the disturbance he distributed so subtly. and since this had always been so, fox did not find it strange. fox has always been a liar, but he does not lie the way most young people do. his are no daydream lying, when the thing imagined is told and, to make it seem more real, told as real. the difference between a lie and a story is that a story utilizes the trappings and appearance of truth for the interest of the listener as well as of the teller; a story has in it neither gain nor loss, but a lie is a device for profit or escape. his lies are never innocent. their purpose is to escape punishment, or work, or responsibility, and they are used for profit. most liars are tripped up either because they forget what they have told or because the lie is suddenly faced with an incontrovertible truth. fox does not forget his untruths, and he has developed the most effective method of lying: he stays close enough to the truth so that one could never be sure. he knows two other methods also — either to intertwine his lies with truth or to tell a truth as though it were a lie. nearly everyone in the world has appetites and impulses, trigger emotions, islands of selfishness, lusts just beneath the surface. most people either hold such things in check or indulge them secretly. fox knows not only these impulses in others but how to use them for his own gain. he does not believe in any other tendencies in humans, for while he is preternaturally alert in some directions he is completely blind in others. parasitic, manipulative fox is the embodiment of evil by popular opinion. his evil seems to be innate and all-consuming, as he displays murderous and perverse tendencies from an early age. he has an overwhelmingly pessimistic view of humankind: fox believes that there is only evil in the world and therefore surrenders himself to it fully. all the while, he fails to understand the good in others and instead uses their trusting natures to achieve his own predatory ends.[/indent] ►[color=0072bc][b]Place Of Origin[/b][/color]◄ [indent]straight outta manhattan[/indent] ►[color=0072bc][b]Background[/b][/color]◄ [indent]fox was born to an A-lister who had children simply for the accessory of children, kurt bellamia. kurt was a rockstar, self-involved in all ways and only married to an opera singer for hr wealth, beauty, and the possible popularity it would bring him. unfortunately, after giving birth to fox's sister about nine months after him, she was taken by maternal death. kurt grew loathsome of fox's sister, anastasia, and eventually fox was the only person in the world that ana knew that was kind to her... relatively. he was always a bad influence, convincing her to go stealing from shops with him, telling her to skip school with him so he wouldn't have to be alone. neither of them quite realised the impact of their actions. and with kurt on tour constantly, their nurse didn't do much to stop them. with all the time he spent with his younger sister instead of with other kids in his year, fox grew distanced from other children, and developed a certain social inadequacy. he was diagnosed with conduct disorder at age nine, and subsequently, at age ten, oppositional defiance disorder. these take form in frequent bursts of aggression, which he has only slightly learned to control. fox tailored other people to fit his unpredictable personality by manipulating them into something more docile, or at least admiring of him so that they do not grow tired of him once he inevitably throws a temper tantrum. throughout elementary, he was the angry kid that constantly got into trouble. throughout middle school, fox grew into a more socially learned individual, developing a deeper understanding of psychology and utilising it for his own advancement. he figured out that kids were very prone to his flirtatious advances and would do anything he wanted once they liked him, so obviously he became known for being rather promiscuous - but it did get him to the top of his class. when he arrived in high school, he maintained his reputation with ease, having no problem manipulating even his teachers into liking him. he reserved his neurodivergent fits for when he was at home, and managed to hide all of it from public view. when he was a sophomore and fifteen years old, however, fox received a B- on a midterm. this set him off to the point of destruction of government property. the school, not appreciative of it, suspended him for a month, and kurt realised this was the time to do something. fox was sent to the camp originally to deal with his issues socialising. his first year, he was rather awkward, unsure of himself and only a fraction as possessive as he was outside of camp, but fox eventually grew to be more regal and fit the 'blue' stereotype as the years progressd.[/indent] ►[color=0072bc][b]Extra[/b][/color]◄ [indent]drawing & making dumb lil edits[/indent] [color=ff0000][b]C

oli's first year[/indent] ►[color=8493ca][b]In Depth Appearance[/b][/color]◄ [indent]oliver has a very androgynous face, with slightly chubby cheeks and a pixielike, upturned nose. he's been slow to develop, and as such doesn't quite have the strong jawline or square face that most other young man do. his eyes only help to babify his facial features, peering out glaringly cerulean and are almost unsettling in all their brightness. he seems to be wearing a permanent frown, not exactly a grimace but still too grieving to be a neutral expression. while some people have a 'resting bitch face,' oliver suffers from 'resting frowny face.' not very original, if you ask me. his body is equally genderless. he doesn't have very strong shoulders, but they are straight-set and not as curved as a biological girl's. he is fairly skinny, weighing in at about one hundred and thirteen pounds, paired with a diminutive height of five foot seven. he has no muscle mass in his arms or legs, and the only thing that keeps his body from complete shapelessness might be the natural pocket of fat over his stomach. he's particularly annoyed by that - he'd prefer to be on either end of the body shape spectrum than have some weird bit of pudge from out of nowhere.[/indent] ►[color=8493ca][b]Habits & Quirks[/b][/color]◄ [indent]- probably off-putting to others, oliver picks at his skin, mostly around his nails and knuckles. it makes the most annoying noise and likely doesn't look all that pretty, either. - ollie pulls his hair from his head - a classic, albeit minor, case of trichotillomania. he'll twist the locks mostly from behind his ear around his finger and use that as leverage to rip them out. - whenever he's sitting or in some leaning position where it's possible, oli will shake his leg and tap his feet on the ground. he's heard from somewhere that it "burns, like, twice as many calories as sitting still does." - this could be considered a bad habit, as oliver isn't necessarily always doing it: slouching. he can't square his shoulders or straighten his spine to save his life. if someone reminds him, though, he'll likely shoot right back up and correct the issue. - people from his team tend to be calmer, one might find, but oli seems to run everywhere he goes instead of patiently walking.[/indent] ►[color=8493ca][b]Likes & Dislikes[/b][/color]◄ [indent]- likes: cold weather, (hot) tea - preferably irish breakfast, oversized sweaters, science, the x-files, ufos dislikes: most dependent animals, large crowds, loud noises, small spaces, sitting still for too long, swimming, physical exercise[/indent] ►[color=8493ca][b]Fears & Phobias[/b][/color]◄ [indent]oliver is agoraphobic (he can't stay in the middle of large crowds for too long), and while he doesn't suffer from clinical social anxiety, he does get a tad nervous in social situations.[/indent] ►[color=8493ca][b]Good Personality Traits[/b][/color]◄ [indent]bright. intuitive. witty. respectful. analytical. observant.[/indent] ►[color=8493ca][b]Bad Personality Traits[/b][/color]◄ [indent]deluded. unintelligent. paranoid. reserved. socially inept. incompetent.[/indent] ►[color=8493ca][b]Personality[/b][/color]◄ [indent]most of the time, oli's personality is both passionate and composed. he has an innocent curiosity that when combined with his creativity yields a character that is fascinated with everything, and fascinating in itself. he has a vast (or, rather, random) array of knowledge, which helps him to piece together ideas that would not often be associated with each other. in terms of emotional sensitivity, oliver is unsurpassed, with a specific talent for empathizing with other people's pain. despite his addictive personality, he remains very independent. though oli is capable of being charming when he wants to be, for him it's just a tool. he is not an especially warm and intimate person, and his native stand-offishness is likely to have been a big contributing factor in his lack of closeness with others. even the few times he's opened up to close friends, personal revelations have often been shrouded in levity. he radiates an aura of mystery, and his insightful observations and original ideas enable him to push change through with sheer willpower and force of personality. at times it will seem that he is bent on deconstructing and rebuilding every idea and system he comes into contact with, employing a sense of perfectionism and even morality to this work. anyone who doesn’t have the talent to keep up with his processes, or worse yet, doesn’t see the point of them, is likely to immediately and permanently lose his respect. white lies and small talk are hard enough as it is for oliver, who craves truth and depth, but he may go so far as to see many social conventions as downright stupid. ironically, it is often best for him to remain where he is comfortable – out of the spotlight – where the natural confidence prevalent in him as he works with familiar environs can serve as its own beacon, attracting people, romantically or otherwise, of similar temperament and interests. mostly, social interaction is hard for him because his mind tends to switch from one topic to another in seconds, focusing on delusions and his false perceptions. it's all very exhausting for ollie. oliver kind of tends to act without conscience, and his distaste for acting on emotion can emphasize that fact. he seems almost emotionless, deemed by others as cold-blooded and insensitive living by the mantra that emotions are for the weak. in fact, this isn't the case, and isn't ever going to be. while he will never be comfortable with a truly public display of emotions, tommy tries very hard to use them, to channel them alongside his creative approaches to issues to help him achieve his goals. it is not easy to become good friends with oli. rather than traditional rules of social conduct or shared routine, oliver has exacting expectations for intellectual prowess, uncompromising honesty and a mutual desire to grow and learn as sovereign individuals. he is gifted, bright and development-oriented, and expect and encourage his friends to share this attitude. anyone falling short of this will be labeled a bore – anyone meeting these expectations will appreciate him of their own accord, forming a powerful and stimulating friendship that will stand the test of time. he does however, develop the odd delusion about people he meets... that proves to be a deal breaker for most, who don't like being unable to contact their newfound friend or be ghosted for weeks when oli grows suspicious or paranoid of them.[/indent] ►[color=8493ca][b]Place Of Origin[/b][/color]◄ [indent]emeryville, california[/indent] ►[color=8493ca][b]Background[/b][/color]◄ [indent]oliver's household started out loose from the beginning. his mother was a relatively wealthy woman, inheriting money from her father, a designer; his father was a relatively broken man, spending his own resources on nothing but alcohol day after day. thankfully, oliver senior didn't exactly fit into the violent cliché that's placed upon most alcoholic fathers. in fact, the man spent his days half-comatose on the couch, barely paying attention to the rambunctious kids he'd gotten stuck with. after having oliver, they got to work with a sibling that turned into two little twin girls. thus, oliver's job went from taking care of himself and his father to taking care of four humans all while attending school and otherwise. he went so far as to make personal rules for himself, obsessing over routines to keep the house afloat. as a toddler, his intelligence was blossoming. he loved to draw and paint, but not on walls or with crayons on printer paper like other children. he drew on books, colour-coding his words like a natural synesthete and helping the illustrators fill in their sketches (obviously, mother didn't take all that well to her novels being desecrated like that). he picked up dictionaries early on and started learning the words and dictating them to his sisters. mother was rather unimpressed when his first word was not 'mom' or 'dad' or any variations of those terms, but 'obsess.' he claimed to relate to it quite well. when he reached later childhood, the aforementioned responsibilities were placed on him. his mother, just reaching promotion to the CEO of a major fashion designer's company, left the house for months at a time to network. he realised his family didn't pay very much attention to him and took it hard. oliver turned to impressing his teachers, if only for a few moments, and bringing his fellow students to jealousy. when he got home, however, dad was always asleep on the couch, and the twins had gone at least six hours without food - it was always that way, after all. he ensured they all ended up fine by the end of the night, typically, but oliver himself remained malnutrited for the majority of his life because of the physical and mental stress. camp liberty came to him by word of mouth. supposedly, it was a promising escape for kids his age. obviously oliver begged his mother to hire someone for at least the summer to take care of the family while he was gone, and with enough mindless pleading, she reluctantly agreed.[/indent] ►[color=8493ca][b]Extra[/b][/color]◄ [indent]favourite activity... yikes, drawing?[/indent] [color=ff0000][b]C O P Y R I G H T[/b] This sheet was constructed by [ @HushedWhispers],
