[color=3D9140]School[/color] 
Grade 11 at Millington High School

[color=3D9140]Occupation[/color]
Technically she's the dishwasher at the Queen's Orchid but the only time she ever shows up to the family diner is when she can snag free food without having to work a shift for it. Her other siblings, excepting Meg, get to do the not shit jobs and she thinks it's blatant favoritism and that is something she won't support. She applied online for a position at Planet Rose but they didn't even let her interview when she showed up, something about age restriction. Her most recent attempt at getting a job was at the Roxy Cinema but they wanted her to clean up popcorn and sticky soda in a dimly lit space and if she wanted to clean gross stuff that people left behind she'd just go back to the diner. 

Brina is currently unemployed. The world might need ditch diggers but that doesn't mean she'll be the one doing it.  

[color=3D9140]Personality[/color]

If the Reese family had a swear jar, Sabrina would account for eighty percent of it; she's at that age. The age where profanity sounds cool and fun and so naturally she uses it almost too much, which of course is a lot less fun now that people think she's doing it as some sort of coping mechanism. It was when Ms. Hayes didn't give her a detention for calling geometry 'fucking stupid' that Sabrina released what a gold mine she was sitting on. In wake of the goings-on with her parents and the kid sister she didn't have time to tease people started treating her different with the whole silent notion of "Oh she's [i]grieving[/i]." 

Sabrina was never much of a griever but she was quite boisterous and that hasn't changed. 

A running joke that Brina has with Meg was that Meg "stole all the brain power" from Brina given that of the Reese siblings, Sabrina is far and away the [i]least[/i] intelligent. She's not willfully ignorant and she's not developmentally challenged, she's a bad student and has a hard time applying concepts and retaining them. She uses her fingers to do simple addition and multiplication. But that never bothered her, nor did it bother her when counselors and teachers thought she might have had ADD or a disorder, and when she heard them discussing it in hushed tones with her dad during a conference she had to proudly proclaim that she didn't have a disorder she was just stupid. 

Though just because she's stupid didn't mean she wasn't sharp. Book smart was one thing, but book smarts didn't help you understand people the way Brina seems to. Despite her low GPA and test scores, Brina is quite perceptive at times and often surprises people with her comments or suggestions that are never considered or overlooked. Her understanding of people is why she understands that even a few months gone she can use her family's troubles to her advantage. Normally that might strike one as a bit sociopathic but it's more like Brina is exploiting empathy: suddenly getting an F on a test is met with sympathy instead of a stern talking to and that's a gravy train she's willing to ride to potato town. Sabrina isn't a sociopath, she's practically a con artist and the con is making people think she's having trouble with grief. 

When it comes to her siblings, she doesn't [i]hate[/i] them but she can't shake the feeling that collectively they look at her like the black sheep even [i]before[/i] everyone started to be moody and depressed. Because of her way with people, Brina has taken the opportunity to try and use her unique position as the forgotten outlier of the family (her words, no one else's) to get her brothers and sisters to stop caring so much about their dead mom and their likely just as dead father and sister. It likely hasn't worked but someone in the household has to be the loud one. At least until she moves out. Then they're on their own. 

[color=3D9140]Short Bio[/color]

It's always hard being the middle child, but Sabrina Reese feels like she's going through life on very hard mode.


If Robin was the problem child then Sabrina was the wild one, the one who would break two plates just because she liked the way it sounded on shattering and then blame it on whoever could take the fall. It was often Megara up until Megara started being all smart. To say she favored either parent or sibling would be untrue. She often mocked - and still does - Abigail for being a clone of their mother which led to a particularly bad moment in the weeks after the suicide where Brina, in a fit of annoyance, shouted at Abigail to "follow in mom's footsteps if you wanna be her so badly!" 

That was not a good night for Sabrina Reese. 

Sabrina used to think she was adopted since her hair was darker and longer than her siblings and parents and because of her shocking lack of intelligence and social grace and while her parents went out of their way to show Sabrina the birth certificate, she remains not fully convinced still. It's how she explains why she feels like an alien even among her family. Family was supposed to be this grand thing you can rely on, but in Sabrina's case she never really felt like she could - and she still really doesn't despite her trying to be the glue that mends the broken plate that is the Reese siblings of late. 

The only thing she felt she got from her parents was her love of music. If Sabrina has one talent it's in music production. For her tenth birthday, Sabrina got a synthesizer and by age thirteen she was putting together crude mixes; she's only gotten better - she's on Soundcloud now - and if there's one thing she does miss about her parents it was the look of, well, [i]pride[/i] they had when Sabrina played her first original piece. Sure it was a really bad drum loop with synth noises but dammit the applause and hugs after it felt good. Great, even. 

She'd maybe like to feel that way again. Even just once.[/center][/hider]
