So there are some inconsistencies between Flynn's and Reece's profiles that I think we need to discuss.

Also, maybe we should re-discuss what's happening with your Gugu fc and Pheonix?

Okay ^-^ sorry I'm super tired and didn't have a second chance to look over her again.

Yeah!

Do you have the link to Flynn >.<? Finding her in the character creation is a challenge with all the gifs slowing the page down

Yeah, sure. I'll just copy and paste her so it'll just be easier. =)

Flynn's face is fairly ordinary. Sure, her green-brown eyes are pretty, but they aren't unusual. What stands out the most is her hair. It is bright red, brighter than the color of fire. Mostly straight with only the slightest wave, it falls to somewhere between her collar bones and her breasts. While not tall, she is fast, and her body is clearly athletic. She has fairly large breasts, which she finds frustrating at times when having to run. She liked them well enough when she used to go clubbing, though. She also has numerous tattoos in a variety of colors.

Pᴇʀsᴏɴᴀʟɪᴛʏ﹕

Sassy and rebellious, no one would expect Flynn to work for the city council. Indeed, it's not so much a thing about politics so much as trying to do better, be better, than her past. She's been through bad times, and being good again is something she has to work at every day. She probably would not have done it for herself, but she would do it for the girl she is falling in love with. Indeed, despite all appearances, Flynn may be a bit of a romantic.

Despite the fact she is working at getting better, she still attends one of the places where she used to buy drugs -- The Soul and the Dragon -- in order to see Uri. The exposure has, of course, led to one relapse. She is infinitely grateful that she did not go back to sleeping around in those couple days. She doesn't know if she could really bear the shame of telling Uri that she went back to doing that.

Uri is the center of Flynn's world. Uri is the reason Flynn quit drugs. Uri is the reason Flynn no longer sleeps around. Uri is the reason Flynn has an actual job instead of being a criminal. Uri is the reason Flynn has pulled the pieces of her life together and tried to leave behind the bad.

Some shards of her old life do remain -- the stretchmarks on her stomach from her pregnancy, for example. Now that she is doing better, she does feel a bit guilty for the way she broke it off with Reece even though she does not regret doing it. Flynn can still be incredibly crass, even if she sort of wants to be classy in an effort to make Uri's family like her.

"My history isn't my proudest moment, but I would be a fool to deny it. Flaunting it? That's just style."

Hɪsᴛᴏʀʏ﹕

Flynn was born to Tori and Erik Adams, who lived in the Middle City Slums at the time. She had three older sisters at the time. She would eventually have three younger sisters and a younger brother. Her story should have been a rags-to-riches, from crass to class, tale of fairy tale proportions. That is a dream the city likes to laugh at.

Flynn grew up with an abusive father. He often hit his wife. His wife slept around. Flynn's father sexually abused Flynn's elder sisters. In fact, the early years of life for Flynn were utterly horrible. The bright spot was school because it meant she was away from home in a way that didn't get her hit and because it was where she met Reece, who quickly became her best friend. He supported her through everything, even as his own life was falling apart, even when she didn't tell him what was wrong.

The sexual abuse for her started around age fourteen, when her parents decided to move into the Heart of the City, where they were some of the poorest people around. By this point, all of Flynn's elder sisters had moved out to get away from the dad. She hated life, and she developed depression. She even tried to kill herself once, but one of her younger sisters saved her.

And then Flynn turned fifteen, and in addition to work, she decided to take up a job to get her away from home as well. In the end, she decided to get a job as a stripper at the Heart of Ashes, a sister establishment to the Soul and the Dragon. By being a stripper, she got to choose to show off her body instead of being forced to. Indeed, it was that same logic that lead her to start sleeping around. She got to choose to have sex instead of being forced to. She was aware it was a coping mechanism even then.

By sixteen, she'd started drugs, another coping mechanism, and she was addicted. School was a challenge, and she never put any real effort into it. Indeed, it was a miracle that she was even able to pass. She bought her own flat with the savings she had compiled, but she was forced to live in the edge of the Heart of the City due to the costs.

Life was still much the same at age twenty. The only difference was that she frequented multiple clubs, including The Soul and the Dragon, and she would often make guest performances. She was into more drugs by then, as well, and by all standards, she was a bit of a mess as well as a rather popular figure.

And then, she had a one-night stand with a very familiar person. It was only after the deed was done that she realized the person was her childhood friend, Reece. They started talking after they realized who each other were, going to lunch and dinner and hanging out on a regular basis. And then Flynn realized she was pregnant, and that he was the most likely dad. They officially started dating then. However, Flynn had misgivings. For the last while, she had been realizing that she was less likely to be bi than gynesexual, a fact that would pose a problem in their relationship. And on top of that, she hated the fact she was pregnant and had not interest in being so. She only didn't abort the pregnancy because Reece begged. She blamed him for it. It was then she realized she thought of Reece definitely only as a friend and not as a lover and was definitely not bi.

Even during her pregnancy, Flynn still frequented The Soul and the Dragon. Hanging out at the bar more often, she began to develop a crush on Uriena Irene Armandt, the bartender. Her pregnancy still wasn't showing when Uriena managed to convince Flynn to go clean. Uri even helped her through all the symptoms of withdrawal. Flynn still did not tell her crush that she was pregnant. Reece did not see Flynn at all as she went through withdrawal. When she returned to Reece, she was unhappy, feeling trapped by their relationship and the pregnancy.

Almost as soon as she gave birth not terribly long before she turned 21, she was out of the family, leaving her newborn daughter with her ex. She broke up with Reece badly, giving him bullshit and lies instead of truth. Maybe if she had been honest, their friendship would have been more salvageable.

Flynn started cleaning up her act more in order to please Uri (who she had not seen in person in months in an attempt to hide the fact she was pregnant). Flynn had always had leanings towards the resistance, but she was fully aware that Uri's family supported the city council, and she wanted to be able to woo Uri properly. As a result, she applied for the position of police officer and was actually approved for the job. She wanted the job of police because Uri's family is council (despite her resistance leanings) so she can court Uri properly. Uri's own siblings gave Flynn the push she needed to reconnect with her siblings and mother. When Flynn left, her father forced himself on the next oldest girl, who was ready for him and stabbed him repeatedly. This was the first time Flynn had heard he was dead. She's been a bit relieved but still horrified ever since. Flynn has almost worked up the courage to actually ask Uri out -- almost

"Safety is not real. Why shouldn't I do whatever the hell I want here and now?"

oh okay xD I don't know why I thought she was a bartender. I'll edit that bit and the rest. No worries ^^

Okay. So, I suppose we should discuss Phi and you Gugu fc then?

Edited him a bit in the history ^-^

Sure. Merp. I feel like my girl is going to be a bit of a flirt, and her name is Noni
Also she works as a sort of Bounty Hunter on the Council

Okay.

Sounds good to me. I'll put her name in Phi's profile. What should Phi and Noni's relationship be exactly? Phi's not on any side; she's a wannabe/ex-member of a crime family.

Hmm weren't we starting them off as frenemies of sorts?

Sort of. I was under the impression that they were sort of frenemies, but also there was like a sexual element to it or something. Don't hold me to that, though, because I think it's been long enough since I've done much for Phi that I've forgotten a lot about what we were planning.

Haha, yeah I remember that part too Maybe they've even shared a kiss after a heated argument, but they've avoided the subject altogether for a while now?

or frenemies with benefits xD?

I'm fine with either version as if not leaning towards the latter at all

Same xD
Maybe leaning towards the frenemies w/ benefits, once upon a time they were in a relationship, but had a falling out, and now they are somewhere in between.
Or just keep it as a recently developed benefits? I ain't got no idea
This is my brain in definite need of sleep mode

XD

So if we did the falling apart thing, maybe it was not technically a formalized relationship but the feelings wre still there and all. But I feel like they should fight over something not politics to avoid the cliche there. Or we could have had them have had a falling out, been in an inbetween stage, fallen out of contact, and sort of just gotten back into a sort of frenemies-with-benefits relstionship?

Hmm yeah the falling out. I don't see it so much as them hating each other as them like teasing each other xD

That works. Should they have lost contact for a while or no? And what would have caused the falling out?

Okay, so how should Phi and Noni have met to begin with, and how old should they have been at the time?

Not sure what could've caused the falling out. Maybe Noni being distant. Or her leaving for a new, and bigger, mission? Or something with Phi =P Whichever.
Hmm maybe somewhere around 26. Not 100% sure how their histories would intertwine.

I don't think that would bother Phi much. Maybe Phi needed to cut contact for a bit because of something happening with her attempt to re-enter the Luscari Crime Family so she used Noni being distant as an excuse?

26 for Noni or for Phi? Phi's two years younger than Noni. I think we were going to have it be a random encounter before. And I feel like if they were going after the same person it'd be cliche. Maybe Noni goes after Phi at first (I mean, Phi does some things like burn buildings and such)?

Or maybe something happens and Noni thinks it's Phi who did it at first but then learns Phi was framed or something?

^-^ yeah I feel like both of them would be unbothered by the distance. Otherwise maybe Noni could pretend she didn't care that Phi left but in reality she was just worried she was beginning to catch her own feelings. So when they reunite or what not she's sorta bitter. Man. Idk.

Well Noni is a bounty hunter and what not for the council of 9 btw I forgot but is she for or against the gov't 'cause we can definitely do something with that ^^

Yeah. And Phi wouldn't even act remotely guilty. Just sort of business-as-usual. She'd probably have tried to force herself not to be upset about having to leave while actually being so in reality.

Phi is not necessarily for either. She's mostly loyal to the gang that threw her out and keeps trying to get it to want her back. So she doesn't necessarily care one way or the other. Because of Noni, she'd probably be a bit more pro-city council.

?

Sounds good ^-^

Hmm okie. I mean them having opposite views could also cause some tension or what not.

:)

True. Noni being involved in actual politics vs Phi being more concerned about her gang

So do they meet when Phi is 26 or Noni is 26?

I think I finished Phi's plot outline. Thoughts?

Hmm maybe when Noni was 26 that way there's been more time they've been apart and all ^^

Her outlines great!

Okay. Sounds good to me!

Thank you! I shall start writing out her history then! =D

DX I've been trying to think of what to write for Noni's history. Ugh. And it's annoying 'cause I'm only having writer's block for her particular character. *sigh

Oh, that sucks.
