[*][color=E81B00][b]Clothing Style:[/b][/color] Prior to this year, she favored conservative, long-sleeve shirts and pants or shorts depending on the weather. Now she has changed her style to favor more revealing clothes, running through t-shirts and tank tops, short shorts and skirts, and sandals.
[*][color=E81B00][b]Makeup Wise:[/b][/color] She's a little sloppy considering how late she got into makeup, but she favors a subtle eyeshadow giving the illusion of shimmer, and clear gloss.
[*][color=E81B00][b]Scars, Tattoos and/or Piercings:[/b][/color] Both earlobes are pierced. Her 18th birthday present to herself was to sneak out to a tattoo parlor in West Palm Beach to get a black and white outline of a wolf in a moon silhouette on her left shoulder, with the words "Live Free" underneath. She thinks it looks badass.[/list]

[color=E81B00]Upbringing Synopsis[/color]
[indent]Shawna was born in Monroe, Wisconsin, the third child to Martin, an engineer specializing in restaurant machinery, and Ramona, a culinary arts teacher at Blackhawk Tech. It looked like a simple food-based existence in America's Dairyland until Martin connected on a $236 million Powerball ticket in 2004. Flush with cash for the first time, the Josis packed up and headed south, settling in Palm Beach where Ramona opened a specialty bake shop known for its decadent chocolate fillings, while Martin found a job with a local tech firm.

Shawna was two when the family moved so she has no recollection of her roots in Wisconsin, but she did show the same advanced intelligence at a young age that became common in the family. She blitzed through the lower grades, much as her older siblings did, showing great aptitude for whatever subject her teachers challenged her with. However, as she grew older, it became more of a strain for her to try and keep up with the advanced coursework, especially with her older siblings setting the Ivy League on fire.
 
In her junior year, it came to a head during her Pre-Calculus final. As she sat in the gymnasium, trying to work out the various equations, it just ceased to click in her mind. As the final bell rang, she bolted from her desk and out onto the beach where she stood, screaming in vain at the ocean in frustration. Then, a moment of clarity came. Why was she doing all this? What was the point if she wasn't enjoying life, enjoying the riches her family had gained? Why should she keep this up?

Shawna spent her summer doing absolutely nothing, paying lip service to the college prep courses her parents were convinced she would still need, as if the 34 on the Pre-Calc final was just a blip on the radar. She would disappear for days at a time, telling her parents she was going to various camps to study, when in reality she was trying to shake the image of a nerd in the high-school scene she avoided for years. She is still trying, not sure she is succeeding, but definitely enjoying cramming coolers in her mouth more than cramming facts about Planck's Constant into her brain.[/indent]

[hr][hr][/center][center]
[color=E81B00]☯ [color=FFF700]☯ [b]Ryland Aspen[/b] ☯[/color] ☯
[i]"I have no clue who this guy is. I mean, Ariel vouches for him, so he has to be cool at something, but I got nothing."[/i]
[color=white]Given that Ryland is a recently returning Floridian, Shawna had no reason to associate with him before, and no chance to associate with him after. Anything she does know comes second-hand from Ariel, who says he is a good guy. So, benefit of the doubt?[/color]
[hr]
☯§ [color=db0a85]☯§ [b]Marisol Castillo[/b] §☯[/color] §☯
[i]"Dude, that girl is fierce. Like super fierce. Fierce enough I don't want her going Street Fighter on my Audi."[/i]
[color=white]There hasn't been much interaction with Marisol. Only heresay and more second-hand talk. Mostly, Shawna knows Marisol as the woman who Chun-Li'd the heck out of a car. Ariel has given her some more info, and it sounds like there is a legitimate chance they could be friends. Shawna definitely respects the hell out of someone who can project that kind of fear. Just hopefully not at her.[/color]
[hr]
☯ [color=35996B]☯ [b]Archer Diedrikson[/b] ☯[/color] ☯
[i]"I think I remember him from the library days. He probably would have been friends with the old me... if either of us actually said words back then..."[/i]
[color=white]Archer and Shawna actually did have some interactions before Shawna's breakdown given that they both spent a lot of time in the library. However, it didn't evolve past simple nods as both had their heads buried in their respective books. Since renouncing the nerd lifestyle, Shawna saw him less, but Archer is another person in Ariel's circle so there is a chance to evolve past that. Maybe they can write something now that Shawna has more life experience.[/color]
[hr]
⚜ [color=ff8c00]⚜ [b]Sonny Drake Jr.[/b] ⚜[/color] ⚜
[i]"He is a dumbass. I don't know if he's still a dumbass, but come on. That wrestler ain't changing his... speedo? I don't know what they wear."[/i]
[color=white]Back in the day when her brain was still a pinnacle of efficiency, Shawna made a little extra spending cash by offering tutoring services to other kids. Sonny was one of those kids. It did not go well. Sonny spent more time talking about wrestling mats than writing and math. Eventually, she gave up. Ariel says that he hasn't really changed. Good to know.[/color]
[hr]
⚜ [color=D11717]⚜ [b]Santiago Fernandez[/b] ⚜[/color] ⚜
[i]"Never did me wrong when I had to go to him. Of course, now he has a kid on the way, so I may have to find another pill hook-up."[/i]
[color=white]Despite his reputation around campus, Shawna did approach him a couple times during the summer. When Carter was out of town, Santiago was the next best option with his selection of pills. Shawna usually hit him up for Xanax, but it tapered off lately with the other things going on. Seems Santiago had other stuff going on as well, given the announcement at Halloween. They can't all be smart.[/color]
[hr]
☯ [color=slateblue]☯ [b]Georgie Fielders[/b] ☯[/color] ☯
[i]"I mean, she's pretty... wow, ok, yeah, I'll stick with that. I have no idea anything about her though."[/i]
[color=white]They are from completely different realms of the school hierarchy, so there's been no reason for Shawna to get to know Georgie other than some glances in the hallway that just confirmed some self-perceptions for Shawna that seemed obvious now. Maybe they will talk someday.[/color]
[hr]
§ [color=ec008c]§ [b]April Foster[/b] §[/color] §
[i]"Congrats to the mom-to-be, I guess. Hope she has a fruitful career on MTV. Good luck driving a minivan like Baby Driver."[/i]
[color=white]April was known for her need for speed, and Shawna wasn't exactly a fan. She narrowly missed being clipped once in the parking lot by someone she was sure was April. No one else drove that recklessly. Or had sex that recklessly either, given her Halloween announcement. Whatever. Enjoy living in WPB with the poop machine.[/color]
[hr]
☯ [color=C3C3C3]☯ [b]Jasper Fray[/b] ☯[/color] ☯
[i]"Fuck, I dunno. Dude is a fucking goth ghost. Plus, I'm pretty sure this is a made-up name. Who names their kid Jasper?"[/i]
[color=white]Shawna's interactions with Jasper involve a couple quick glances and then a turn away. She was never a fan of the goths. Punk? Punk, she could get behind. Goth? Too much sadness to have to deal with. No idea if he's anything behind the eyeliner and black jackets.[/color]
[hr]
§ [color=9a503d]§ [b]Jack Goff[/b] §[/color] §
[i]"Never talked to him, but I don't think I have to. Freaking jocks think they own the school. Assholes."[/i]
[color=white]There might not be two circles more diametrically opposed than jocks and nerds, and given her recent status, Shawna has no love for the jocks. It might just be guilt by association given what a jock did to her recently, but Jack hasn't done anything to disprove that notion.[/color]
[hr]
♫ [color=00EDDD]♫ [b]Ariel Grey[/b] ♫[/color] ♫
[i]"She has been a big plus. I think it's nice to know I have someone who has my back in a fight for sure. I'll be the angel that fuels her rage and she can be the devil that knows how to keep me calm. There's poetry there."[/i]
[color=white]It's been a fast friendship between the two girls, but it's a surprisingly strong one. With the support they provided each other during the Halloween party, there was almost a symbiotic relationship formed. Plus, Ariel was a good drinking buddy. In all seriousness, Ariel confirmed for Shawna that putting herself out there was a good strategy, if only to be able to make connections with people that didn't want to hang out with her for cheap homework answers. Shawna will defend Ariel to the full extent, and if Kavi fucks up again, Shawna knows how to get destructive now.[/color]
[hr]
♫♥ [color=7ea7d8]♫♥ [b]Sunshine Hollingsworth[/b] ♥♫[/color] ♥♫
[i]"She's my best friend here. Seems almost weird given she just got here from LA, but she's become so vital to me and if you told me last year, I would be so close with a Cali girl like this, I'd say you were smoking... well, some of Carter's good shit, I guess."[/i]
[color=white]Given Kellie's departure, Sunshine has been a rock for Shawna. Ever since she randomly sat down at her lunch table, the bond has been strong, and grown even stronger as the weather grew colder. It was Sunshine who kept Shawna from a cripplingly lonely holiday break, it was Sunshine that helped her forget about everything and even get a little bit of family time that Shawna had no hope in having, and it just might be Sunshine who can restore Shawna to a pre-breakdown state of contentment with life. OR you know, they can just get drunk and laugh at people. Who's to say? Whatever it is, there is something there. The holiday break made that clear.[/color]
[hr]
☯ [color=ffc0cb]☯ [b]Stella Lambert[/b] ☯[/color] ☯
[i]"Think I remember seeing her at a couple of parties during the summer. Tough to say. There were a lot of drugs kicking around."[/i]
[color=white]As a fellow "rich girl who is going after the drugs to cope with a bunch of stuff," Shawna felt a certain kinship with Stella. However, there was never really an opportunity to bond over vodka and weed, as Shawna was just spreading her wings into that world and felt a little nervous about going up to someone was in so many of her classes before.[/color]
[hr]
§ [color=52be80]§ [b]Sawyer Lockwood[/b] §[/color] §
[i]"Sawyer was cool, before he quit the drugs. I mean, how could I quit what I was just figuring out? He's gotta chill."[/i]
[color=white]Sawyer was one of the first people Shawna met when introducing herself to the seedier side of Palm Beach, but when Sawyer quit going to the parties, she figured that was the end of it. However, because he was friends with Kellie, he saw her when she was doing her best to be sober around her, and there was hope that maybe she had found the same solution he had. If only he knew what the breakup did to that pathway.[/color]
[hr]
☯ [color=CF5685]☯ [b]Julie MacMillan[/b] ☯[/color] ☯
[i]"She seems way too focused on living online to be any kind of fun to hang out with. Freaking queen she is."[/i]
[color=white]Given that most of Shawna's interactions with Julie have come in the form of looking at the photos she posted on Instagram, now that Shawna actually has bothered to join the social media world, it doesn't paint a great picture in her eyes. A lot of fashion, and that whole crowning in front of the entire school. Shawna didn't need all that. It's just meh. She'll reserve judgement until actually talking to her at some point.[/color]
[hr]
☯ [color=D2652C]☯ [b]Chanel Martin[/b] ☯[/color] ☯
[i]"She's smart. Smarter than a lot of people give her credit for. Too bad she never talked to me back when I was smart."[/i]
[color=white]Shawna and Chanel were in a couple of advanced classes in previous semesters, so there was an awareness of existence there. But the two never really talked aside from class discussions and then of course, when Shawna's desire for academic success fell off a table, so too did any semblance of an acquaintance. Seeing her at Halloween was the first interaction in months.[/color]
[hr]
☮ [color=76FF7A]☮ [b]Chris McCoy[/b] ☮[/color] ☮
[i]"Chris is a sweet girl, and I definitely know the pain she's been going through... in a way... anyway, happy to help her work through things."[/i]
[color=white]Shawna and Chris first met through the school's theatrical productions. Shawna would help write treatments to make the material more palatable for teenagers, and while working on it, the two bonded over a shared affection for Jane Austen novels. Now they are bonding over different sensibilities. Given Shawna was already spiraling, it was nice to have someone along for the ride, and Chris provided the premium ice cream.[/color]
[hr]
☯ [color=C9FFE5]☯ [b]Nicole Milano[/b] ☯[/color] ☯
[i]"She's a cheerleader, and so is Sunshine, so I guess she's a good enough person. Dunno shit about her though."[/i]
[color=white]When it comes to Nicole, Shawna is in the dark on what kind of dangerous woman she could be. Probably not that dangerous, but she's not calling her an angel. Over and over again, Shawna sees Nicole out there with Sunshine, and while she doesn't have a problem with the girl singing the popular song, she's not gonna stop breathin' without Nicole's [s]love[/s] attention. Maybe there is a friendship there, but until then, it's thank u, next.[/color]
[hr]
§☯ [color=BF225D]§☯ [b]Ariana Mossos[/b] ☯§[/color] ☯§
[i]"The girl is a power bitch. I mean that in the nicest way, but from what I heard, girl's been around."[/i]
[color=white]All Shawna knows of Ariana is hearsay and legends. Legends like Ariana had seduced more jocks than a cooler of Bud Light and a bonfire, and that her powers weren't limited to high school boys. Honestly, a girl like that might be even crazier than Shawna has the space for, but hey, she's got her own thing going.[/color]
[hr]
☮ [color=CCC6EA]☮ [b]Carter Newton Jr.[/b] ☮[/color] ☮
[i]"Carter! My favorite hook-up! I don't mean sex! No, no... no... but dude gets the good shit. Hasn't let me down."[/i]
[color=white]While not really known to each other prior to the Pre-Calc crisis, Shawna and Carter became very good friends during Shawna's descent. Carter became an indispensable friend and one of the most frequently texted numbers in Shawna's phone. Mostly because Shawna was going through weed and other drugs like a Canadian going through ice chips on South Beach. But still, they talk about other things, so that's a solid relationship, right?[/color]
[hr]
[s]♥ [color=00FA9A]♥ [b]Kellie Anne Nicholson[/b] ♥[/color] ♥[/s]
[i]"I miss her. Not gonna lie. So many memories. So many firsts. It was a roller coaster sometimes, but fuck, I still love her."[/i]
[color=white]Even though she was dragged back to the Silicon Valley, the mark Kellie Anne left on Shawna's life is indelible. Unforgettable. The dancer claimed so many firsts in Shawna's life and truly convinced her that she was anything but straight. All through the power of cupcakes. Even though there's now 3,000 miles between them, and even though it seems like the two just weren't destined to be, she will always have a special place in Shawna's heart. Plus, that flexibility was eye-opening.[/color]
[hr]
☠ [color=008080]☠ [b]Kavi Salvador[/b] ☠[/color] ☠
[i]"Dude had all that shit coming to him. How can you cheat on a freaking sweetheart like Ariel? Dude deserved to have more than his Playstation smashed."[/i]
[color=white]In all fairness, the sparse interactions Shawna and Kavi have had in the past were cordial. She was surprised she knew him at all, really. But wow, the party was a wake-up call. Shawna is firmly Team Ariel and she wants nothing to do with Kavi since he is a cheating jackass who hooked up with Danica Patrick Lite and deserves all the pain that Ariel wants to give him.[/color]
[hr]
☯ [color=851309]☯ [b]Kavan Varma[/b] ☯[/color] ☯
[i]"Ariel tells me Kavan can write. I would love to see it. I wonder if he collabs with Archer? That would make some sense."[/i]
[color=white]Another one of Ariel's friends who Shawna has little to no knowledge of. Based on what she knows, Shawna has no reason to believe that her and Kavan couldn't enjoy some good conversations about the art of writing. If Shawna even remembers her process.[/color]
[hr]
☠ [color=36506B]☠ [b]Max Wallenberg[/b] ☠[/color] ☠
[i]"Fuck. Max. Fuck that lacrosse-playing douchebag. Fuck him and his smug-ass face, and his stupid muscles and... just fuck him."[/i]
[color=white]There are bonds that are forged over the sharing of baked goods, and bonds sealed in icing can not be broken. There was a hate pact made over red velvet treats, and that pact will not be broken. Not for what he did to Kellie, and continued to do to Kellie. Millie may get the blame, but Shawna is convinced Max did something and that's why her cupcake had to split. Plus, he's a smug jock with an insane sense of self-entitlement. Fuck that dude.[/color][/color]
