Long Overdue v9 thread- Yona makes mentally ill kids, again.

[Yonagoda]

Priya Badayuni

-At first glance: Priya is a scraggly kid, barely breaking 5' and concerningly skinny. It/she/they pronouns in descending order of preference. Dresses slightly alternatively, and is most distinguishable by their recent hobby in scarification, which has resulted in plenty of concerned reach-outs to their parents.

-Personality: Always chasing a dopamine hit, Priya has an easily addictive, distractable personality caused in part by adhd and in part by a sheltered childhood. They are easily obsessive but appears chill on the outside. Overthinker who tries not to overthink too much, kind of chillax. It's an open secret that their family situation isn't doing all that well. Surprisingly straight-edge otherwise; doesn't touch alcohol and deferential to authority. They like to hang out with other kids and can keep a conversation going for hours. Cheery.

-Activities: An art and music kid, often found in the arts wing of the school working on a ceramics project. They feel comfortable as "one of the boys" in a way and shows up a lot in the audience whenever there's a school sports thing going on.

-Looking for: Priya's the sort to have a small handful of really close friends, but that handful doesn't tend to last for very long as they burn out and get bored of them after a while. Also, some people would defo think that the kid carving stuff into their legs is fucked up and look at them weird for it tbh.

Molly Olivia Olsson

-At first glance: Average-looking girl, a bit homely. White as fuck. She's nearsighted and always a bit hunched.

-Personality: Femcel (in spirit). Chronically online. She is stubborn, opiniated, but not very loud in real life. A long history of histiroic, attention-seeking behavior. She's going through this phase where she thinks being edgy makes her seem cool, and that's very much not the case, and her reputation is kind of going down the drain, to be honest.

-Activities: Tried to start a Swifties club. Failed. Trying to start a Pop Music club. Is failing, but still trying her best.

Looking for: Enemies. Moots on twitter. Maybe a popular girl that she can get a pathetic puppy dog crush on (she will cut off her fingers for a chance to date her), or an average, maybe douchbaggy guy that she can get a seethingly self-hating jealous crush on (she's a tsundere)

Tian Shu "Florrie" Wen

-At first glance: That neighborhood kid with a 4.0 and 350 volunteer hours and a scholarship and five national awards and a club president role that your parents always compared you to. She's a hard worker, a bit of a teacher's pet, and a bit intimidating, and works very hard to come off as being nearly perfect on the outside while still maintaining some semblance of a social life. Likes a bit of embroidery on her skirts, dresses like a grandma sometimes.

-Personality: Neurotic, perfectionistic, people-pleaser but only for a few specific people, the rest can get fucked. Measures her self worth in medals and grades. Not particularly popular, but reliable.

-Activities: DECA, HOSA, student government. Tutors for AP calc and chem.

Looking for: Study buddies

Johannes Morell

-At first glance: Weird kid, school shooter in the making, tall and scrawny. Dresses in almost all black.

-Personality: Low-empathy, unncommunicative, prone to the occasional explosive outburst. Antisocial and glaringly neurodivergent since early childhood; his dad thinks he's a psychopath (probably not) his mom thinks he's just autistic (a bit more likely) and he's bouced between behavioral specialists and wilderness therapy camps that have both traumatized him in different ways.

-Activities: Gamer. TTRPGs, FPS, etc. Really into Warhammer at the moment? Likes to collect stuff; rocks, coins, etc.

Looking for: Former bullies. A few guys and girls for him to have weird one-sided crushes on and he's like really weird about it.

Oh boy here I go formulating relationships again

Molly Olivia Olsonn

Sylvie Rattray
Nominating her as the popular girl crush of hers if you feel like deeply hurting her by virtue of the fact that it'll never be reciprocated by virtue of Sylvie having a puppy-dog crush on another guy.

Manuel "Mañana" Hernández
Did someone say average-looking douchebag? Can double as an enemy/bully by virtue of him thinking her edginess is corny asf.

Johannes Morell

Manuel "Mañana" Hernández
Did someone say bully? Putting my singular boy forward once more.

Raya Loux
Resident tall buff mechanic girl. Suggested for one of the one-sided crushes!

hi !


Priya !

so i think Tabby would get along really well with Priya, they both enjoy arts and crafts and Tabby loves to listen and learn. Tabby is also obscenely patient and tolerant, and would have no problem forgiving Priya if they suddenly ghosted her or did something Offensive™ or Unusual® in her presence

Molly !

Danny would absolutely join the pop music club and attempt to relate every single subject and conversation back to the Beach Boys and their (real or projected) influence

Tabby could qualify for the puppy dog crush, and would find it funny to play into it around Molly if they were aware of the crush. could also see them playing into the edgelord in Molly and getting her into some kind of trouble

Johannes !

Tabby would be nice to him and would love to see/hear about his collections c:

These all seem like valid relationships; but I'll hold off on the crushes for now as I consider my options!

Valid, still mulling on the crushes tho!

[Dr Adjective]

Oh no it’s me! Ideas! Organised by target!

Priya
Boy do I not know how to handle multiple pronouns so I’m gonna follow suit with you and use they.

I have no idea of the relationship they’d have with Heather but I feel like it’d be interesting. I have nothing solid I can suggest but I would very much like to see the two of them interact.

Hope is a huge stan for the baseball team and plays on the girls’ soccer team so might be a connection there? She can definitely chat for hours about her interests but I feel old she’d have a visceral distaste for the scarification thing, kinda taking it irrationally personally that someone would choose to do that with an able body.

Mercy’s probably just casually kind of a dick to them, they’d cross paths often enough in artistic circles for it to be a problem I think.

LK I dunno, probably nothing there.

Molly
Hey guess who else is a chronically online weird girl? LK! Not a femcel though, she definitely fucks, not exactly popular at school but somewhat popular online so could be the subject of a one-sided crush as a niche internet microcelebrity? I feel like Mortimer’s gonna be a shared connection here so that’s possibly worth looking at - relatedly, LK’s at least a little receptive to edgy humour so they could potentially have a bit of a surface-level rapport?

I don’t think my other girls really know she exists, possible that Mercy has given her shit for her taste in music, also possibly she has a crush on Mercy anyway?

Florrie
I sense Heather animosity, not a surprise as Heather is a contentious person. Finds her to be way too much, needs to chill out and stop worshipping The System and etc. In return I imagine Florrie thinking she’s an aggressive and obnoxious asshole with no prospects. In a different genre they’d probably have fans shipping them…

Probably doesn’t get on that well with Mercy or LK either, but on a less intense level that’s not really worth remarking on.

Hope possibly comes to her for tutoring? I’m not sure how American school works but since she wants to get into a medicine-adjacent field chemistry is probably important for her. In return, whilst she’s way lower on the attainment end, maybe Hope’s dedication and such is kinda charming? She doesn’t seem to have a natural talent for much of anything but dangit does she try hard and refuses to let anything hold her back.

Johannes
Depending on the circumstances I see Heather either hating this poor kid’s guts or being a rare genuine friend and source of comfort. Kinda up to you what you think would serve his narrative better I guess?

LK is a fellow gamer, could be something there. Her mental health glow up since transitioning could be an interesting point of divergence, maybe they were closer as youths but drifted apart when she blossomed and he continued to struggle?

Mercy feels like she’d be casualy antagonistic, she’s just not very tactful.

Hope maybe had TTRPGs in common but that’s not settled as yet, so bookmark for later.

Thank you for your consideration, please find attached my resumé and cover letter, uh… this isn’t a job application, look over there it’s a distraction
