Think our guys' families would have beef, but the boys could be (unlikely?) friends. Also, though I didn't write it, I figure Damon would be a part of the student council.[/quote]
That would make sense. Ambrose's mother probably hosted a small fundraiser or awareness banquet and managed to rope in the founding families that wished to come. There was an unspoken rivalry there. Ambrose and Damon would have definitely run into each other, but the rivalry doesn't transfer over to their children. Just like "oh hey, a kid my age and generally close to my status... neat."

Maybe they have that sort of friendship that has verbal jabs. To give up the appearance that the families don't really care for each other, but it's all in good fun.

Ambrose Hightower: The rich, conventionally attractive, popular boy is definitely not the sort she'd normally hang with, but she finds his self awareness endearing, and also definitely loves a himbo. Strong possibility of unlikely friendship.
Slight possibility that they have fooled around.

I will willingly fall on that sword of being the town's best himbo. What if Ambrose's mom needled into his head that he needed to make friends with her due to her father being a disabled veteran? Maybe trying to find a cause to champion that seemed humanitarian. Ambrose, the ever-willing pawn, agreed. Though he quickly found out that that wasn't a great route, and his mother moved on to other things. Maybe their first few meetings were ripe with disagreements and misunderstandings. But when Ambrose purely admitted fault and that he was more than aware of the privilege he carries, they could have an easier conversation. And I'm [s]down to clown,[/s] more than happy to have said they have fooled around. Conventionally attractive himbos can't sit on the shelf gathering dust.

[@Teyao] [b]William Mencia:[/b] I don't know if Ambrose and William would have a reason for their circles to have overlapped. But considering the small size of the town, they've at least run into each other. It's fair to say that Ambrose definitely has looked at his art and not understood a damn thing about it. Maybe led to a misunderstanding where he honestly seemed to be insulting William's talent, but was just having a problem with the discourse around it. So, maybe he avoids William afterward. Just a thought, I'm down for any other suggestions.

[@Jumbus] [b]Rowan Moore:[/b] You think that maybe Rowan would have tutored Ambrose? I mean, even though he has money... he still needs to get into a prestigious college even if it's by the skin of his teeth. Family obligation and all that, which I'm sure Rowan understands even though they're worlds apart in the semantics.

[@Cassette] [b]Elias Jensen:[/b] I'm sure there's a lot that a grifter could do with Ambrose, or he could do nothing at all as he is a big fish. I don't want to step on your character's toes in regard to their relationship, but I can't imagine they'd be friends. Iunno. I am open to suggestions.


And that brings me to my last point. Apparently, we have some interest in the Student Council board. I vote Ambrose as Vice President. Just there to shake babies and kiss hands.
