[hider=freya relationships]
[b]Jack[/b] [sup][@nodogs][/sup]
Being frequently surrounded by snobs and gossips and clout chasers, Freya probably gravitated toward Jack (whenever she could find her around school, at least) when she needed a breather. To Freya, her indifference was like an oasis. They probably wouldn't talk about anything too deep, maybe sometimes would even just listen to music together? Whatever it is, Freya would have been relaxed around her.

[b]Meir[/b] [sup][@Salsa Verde][/sup]
Knew him to be a target of certain groups she hung out with. They probably had a couple of AP classes together, since Freya did pretty well academically? She knew how smart he was and probably quietly rooted for him to get through high school so he could properly bloom into his potential.

[b]Sara[/b]

[quote=@banjoanjo]
Depends if she was one of Freya’s ‘unlikely friends’. Sara would have wanted to keep it under wraps, knowing how other people viewed her relationships as weirdly contractual. If anyone knew about it, Freya – or worse, other people – would likely just assume she was using the rich girl for popularity or a brief escape from middle class life.
If they weren’t friends then Sara wouldn’t take the initiative to talk to her. Freya would just be a face she’d note from the periphery of a party.

Ooh, yes, I’d like for her to be one of the unlikely friends! Maybe when Freya and her family first moved in, it was Sara who welcomed her? Freya could have known Willard too. Maybe they have a secret place they go to meet up and hang out, because Freya knew not to get anyone involved in the scandals that plagued her. Sara would have been a trusted confidant, and she opened up to her more than she normally would.

Freya would have regretted not keeping in contact with her after they moved back to New York without a word, mirroring what Willard did just months prior.

[b]Hanna[/b]

[quote=@Prisk]
Hanna definitely knows of Freya, somehow. Perhaps even after Delton? Seeing as both of them live in NY. I don't know where to start the connection, though. There is quite a few strings to use here, especially this one "Although she often hung around her elitist clique...". I'm thinking Hanna and her buddies belong to that title.[/quote]
Yes, I would think that Hanna and her friends are part of the popular circles that Freya surrounded herself with! Freya always invited people over to her stereotypical rich girl house, so maybe they saw each other pretty often?

Freya would have only tolerated Jennifer and Madeleine at best, and she didn't care for any of their mean girl shenanigans. Hanna would have intrigued her more, mostly because of their conflicting worldviews. She often wondered how Hanna wasn't exhausted from putting so much stock on what other people thought of her.

How do you think they'd get along in NY? Freya is currently a creative director for a fashion magazine, so they’d have some overlap in that area? Her mom’s a socialite so they have connections galore.

[b]Genesis[/b]

[quote=@fledermaus]Genesis would be a frequenter at Freya's parties. I can even see them being friends, though Freya hanging around with the popular clique being a point of contention between the two as Genesis is one of those people who pride themselves on being "real".[/quote]

Yep, that's what I think too! A lot of her other ‘friends’ don't like Genesis and some were downright afraid of her acerbic remarks and candor, but Freya admired her for it, however brutal it could be. Genny would have known which rumors about Freya were real, and they'd laugh at the more ridiculous ones.

Maybe there was a point where they started hanging out a lot, beyond the parties. Freya would have known Genny didn't like the other people she surrounded herself with, but she was too afraid to let them go. They'd been necessary in keeping her distracted from the drama at home. Her refusal to break ties with them could have led to them drifting apart?

[b]Lucas[/b] [sup][@Mao Mao][/sup]
Freya would have heard about the incident with his dating profile and maybe approached him to help him deal with being the subject of a rumor? She sympathized a lot with his plight, even though she knew their circumstances were completely different. Her life definitely didn't get upended like his over a rumor. It probably didn't help that she hung around the people that put him in that situation, though.

[b]Ben[/b] [sup][@Odin][/sup]
Hm, Freya’s family is pretty shady, so I’m wondering if her dad and his would have some sort of connection? 

But yeah, like calls to like, and even if Freya and Ben might not have interacted too much, she would have seen him as a sort of kindred spirit. It's in the way he conducted himself, the perfectly manicured persona – it was all too familiar.

[b]Connor[/b] [sup][@Sweven7][/sup]
Think they would have been around the same circles? He was easy enough to get along with, so Freya liked him. Maybe she liked how he didn't fawn over her like some of the other boys did. She would have probably called him late at night so she could get away from her own home drama, maybe joined some of his nightly car rides.

[b]Billy[/b]

[quote=@Gisk]Billy would be an ever present face at house parties thrown at her place. They would be as close as she would let them get, so I leave that to you, and we can discuss it at more length if needed.[/quote]
I can see Billy being one of those she actually considered a true friend. Freya would have admired his strong sense of self. His music is not her usual cup of tea, but when she's had a few drinks, she loves it. Maybe she even sings along when he plays piano. She has a nice, sweet voice, but it’s not meant for pop punk lol 

When he released his album, she bought it to support him, but found she likes to blast it on the speakers whenever she needs to be in the zone for work. If he ever had a show in New York, she would have gone to see it.
