Following up on some earlier discussion about how everyone would get together on this, it's almost certain than some of them know each other pretty well and have at least met the others at some point. Many high schools have a population greater than 1,200, and half the characters have lived there most, if not all, their lives.

Whether they're close or not, Mina, Mike, Sean, and Cristi would know each other fairly well, if for no other reason than because they've been in Barrowside for 20+ years based on the bios. From Cristi's bio, it's likely that he shadowed or worked with both Mike and Sean at some point in his teens and probably still does on occasion.

With the transplants, I'm sure everyone would know who they are and probably have at least a solid amount of second-hand information about them. In a community that small, anyone new is bound to get attention and news would travel fast as new tidbits about their backgrounds or personalities were discovered. As has been mentioned, those within a group probably know each other pretty well. I mean, they do live in dorms together, so I bet they even know who drools on their pillow.

Anyway, just for funsies, here's Cristi's take on his neighbors ...

[b]Mina[/b] - Did you know I've had a crush on you since we were kids? Oh, yeah, I guess you do. Um, yeah, I guess everyone else knows too. So what are you doing for dinner? I have two cans of pork & beans, one spoon, and a flask of engine degreaser.

[b]Mike[/b] - Awesome! Much respect!

[b]Sean[/b] - Solid guy but, seriously man, what's with the hammer?

[b]Daniel[/b] - Decent, fun to work with, and probably the only 2A that isn't a complete d-bag.

[b]John[/b] - Always interesting conversation, but you're not quite right are you?

[b]Alex[/b] - So if things don't work out with Mina ... um, never mind, you're kinda scary. 

[b]Vivian[/b] - Love the directness, and I think we might share some perspectives, but I can't tell. Nix the mumbling and enunciate?

[b]Evelyn[/b] - Funny as hell, decent enough, but lighten up a little. You 3As are prickly.

[b]Vale[/b] - Could you maybe not stand so close? Yeah, ok, you're not close but I can still see you and it's creeping me out. Alex? Viv? Could one of you maybe stand between me and Vale? Yeah, right there. Perfect!
