Palm Beach Royals: Senior Year

"Sup Karchie?"

Sonny tried to play off what was quite obvious to him, as he saw the way that not only Archer's eyes fell on the connection Sonny and Marisol's hands had locked tight like a door with a heavy-duty lock. He wanted to downplay the shocking display of PDA. Maybe distracting Archer with some of his usual humor would work. Archer might scoff and make a comment about how unfunny "Torvald" is. Sonny wouldn't be opposed to that, especially when it came to not having to answer the elephant in the room and especially not after it might cause three of his closest friends to be mad at him.

So what was one to do? Embrace the obvious and just beat Archer and Kavan to the punch by addressing it or make unrelated small talk like the weather or how the new year has opened up bright, new possibilities? He stood there, contemplating as he did his best to maintain steady eye contact with Archer, though his eyes did occasionally switch from the dark-haired teen to his girlfriend. It was though Sonny was seeking an answer in hers just as much as he was with Kavan. Sonny could only imagine how awkward it was for him. Just a few silent moments more and Sonny sighed.

"Well..." Sonny lifted his arm that was connected to Marisol's, not giving a damn right now. "We're dating, okay? We wanted to keep it lowkey but Rye caught us in the middle of a very intimate moment," Sonny sighed once more, "you can't possibly imagine. I was about to give Marisol a morning she wouldn't remember. I was poised, she was ready, and then BAM!" Sonny clapped his free hand on his forehead. "Ryland Aspen walks into my room and the storm that was going to be brought to Planet Marisol was instead fucking up my equilibrium and yeah." Sonny ranted on for a bit longer as if he couldn't stop himself even if he wanted to. "Bottom line, Rye pissed at us and we sort of decided we didn't care about people not knowing. If they cared enough, they would ask us...sort of like you just did."

Meadow University

_Outfit

“Two years have come and gone. Oh, how time flies~”

Usually, for returning students, they took their sweet time getting settled in. Some might have or some probably were in the process of just unpacking. With all of the commotion happening within the town, who could blame them for putting that to the side until the very last minute. With festivities, active party scenes within the town itself, and all of the positive vibes, nobody would blame them. Not the dean of the university and most certainly not Nate.

But then again, not everyone had the money like those trust funds and other legacies who were glorified trust funds. Nate didn’t like to hate on them, though. He knew they were people just like him ...well, as long as you remove the fancy clothes, fancy accessories, deep bank accounts, and some ‘I’m better than you’ attitudes, and they were just like everyone else. They were just like Nathan Blake. And if that was possible, then of the trust funds -- particularly the females -- maybe he had a shot.

Ah, the truth be bluntly told, Nate knew his chances. When people like Lola Russo and the Lola Russos that weren’t Lola Russo roamed the campus grounds, his shot of getting one of them to look his way was just as likely as being able to make a relationship work. And Nate hasn’t been in a relationship -- not one that mattered, that is -- since Miranda. It wasn’t a long one since it happened so close to graduation and they went their separate ways, but to him, it was the best month of his adolescent life. But as far as getting lucky since coming to M.U.? Forget about it!

Nate wandered the campus aimlessly, hands in his jacket pocket, the lamenting musings of one Papa Roach playing, bringing a rare reflective nature out in Nate. He had been wandering about for a while and only just realized what time it was. This happened when he glanced at his phone and it was starting to get late. But he didn’t want to go home. He didn’t want to be alone in his dorm but what to do, what to do…

Under the veil of a moment of thought, Nate’s decision had been made for him when he remembered something some people were talking about. The series of texts a lot of the third years received (Nate included) about specific guidelines for this year’s pre-semester, well-hidden Great Bash. It wasn’t much, of course (it never was) but in the series of messages, it spoke of a lake or something close to it.

As he tried to decipher the text, hoping to figure it out before it was too late, Nate must have stood where he was for a good five minutes and he came up with nothing. Only was it when he saw some people dressed like they were going to the party pass him by. Both had dark hair but one was wearing fishnet stockings. Safe to say, Nate’s mind went elsewhere and he followed but not in a creepy way like you’d see on Criminal Minds or Netflix’s You but a tasteful, ‘I’m lost and need help’ kind of way. You know! Like a harmless puppy looking for a home.

Nate’s instincts proved to be right because after a few minutes of following them (from a distance because he respected personal space) down a subtlety marked path in the forest near the campus, Nate’s observant blue eyes saw a sign marked “Private”. A lightbulb went off in his head as he then remembered the text mentioned something about that.

Given he was no longer confused, Nate popped in his earphones, grooved to the talented musings of Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars as he found his groove. While he dad, he snapped his fingers and partially danced his way down the path and finally arrived.

He slowly plucked his AirPods out of his ears and put them in the case and returned them to his shirt pocket. While a certain kind of atmosphere was present, what with the party already happening, it was clear to him that the party was just getting started. He saw some familiar faces already. Some of them he liked were here but others felt like he should steer clear of them. Honestly, Nate was just happy to not be lost like he was.

The young man fixated on the refreshments table and he was ready to mingle with a certain fishnet stocking-wearing wild cat. Straightening his shirt -- his polo shirt that didn’t need to be straightened -- Nate’s first few steps were cool, calm, and most of all, remained like that when Ramona Martin joined her and Nate’s trajectory changed as he beelined towards somewhere not there.

“No. You can do this. Breathe in and just say hello! Worse case? You get rejected and move on.” Nate assured himself, gaining some new confidence through the power of self-assurance. He turned right back around and continued this process a few more times until he finally gained the stones to follow through. “Yo, Jasper!” He gave her a wave and flashed her a charming smile. His eyes briefly went to Mona. “Oh wassup M Squared!” Nate gave her a simple wave as well. “I believe I heard something about shots?” He looked at the two girls (mostly Jasper) with a wide, somewhat goofy/charming smile.

Label

Nate’s that one idiot that everyone just calls an idiot but really, he’s a big softy. #lovemeladies

Appearance Details

Hair: Light brown. Nate’s hair is kept mostly groomed and mostly combed to perfection; although some days it might just be left a shaggy mess like Nate’s life.
Eyes: Brilliantly blue like a sapphire gem.
Height & Weight: 6’2, 175lbs
Body Type: Athletic enough. He is not unreasonably so but enough to seem healthy for all of the walking around he does.
Clothing Style: When it comes to his fashion sense, Nate isn’t exactly fancy. Of course, he’s kind of poor, so he doesn’t have the option of being fancy. Even if he did, he wouldn’t because he’s somewhat of a simpleminded guy both in personality and what he wears. He’s casual to the max and wears whatever fits and feels comfortable. Above all else, he’s 100% about the #comfortlife. He has a closet full of jackets and single-colored shirts but only a few pairs of slacks and jeans. He gets them in bulk from the goodwill stores nearby and even the thrift store by his neighborhood had some interesting items of interest.
Scars, Tattoos and/or Piercings: Nope. None worth noting.

Personality Traits

Warm-Hearted → Friendly → Polite → Fun-Loving → Wacky → Unpredictable → Goofy → Sensitive → Hopeless Romantic → Gullible

Nate isn’t the kind of person that everyone meets in their life. He doesn’t fit into just one circle. He’s an artist, a romantic (hopelessly so), he also plays sports. Nate is overtly friendly, will hug someone if he feels they need it, doesn’t mind giving someone a high five upon meeting them. Whether or not these gestures of friendship are well-received remains to be decided, but he’ll do them regardless (sometimes to himself so he doesn’t feel excluded). Truth be told, he’s weird like that but only because it covers up not wanting to be left alone nor hanging. He wouldn’t want to be left hanging so he doesn’t do it either.

He’s very introspective and wears his heart on his sleeve. Some might say that leaves him open to being taken advantage of, but to him, it's just Nathan Blake being as authentic as he possibly could. He smokes a lot of weed, so he’s mostly chill and laid back, which might open him up for a lot of companionships of varying kinds. As someone who is down to do whatever as long as it’s not going to require a lot of activity on his part, Nate is down for it. Though be warned! Nate can tend to be just a tad obnoxious and hard to deal with, especially if someone might take life or the actions of others a lot more seriously than they should.

Upbringing Synopsis

In a nutshell, Nate’s life has been nothing but disappointment but not to himself. He is the only person he hasn’t disappointed, but when it comes to his father, grandfather, and basically everyone who might’ve thought he had the Blake potential to be like his WWII vet grandfather and his father, who was a vet of several wars in the late 80s until present day. The tradition of the Blake family was manditory military enrollment. It was never enforced because the Blake men (as in those born to Harvey Jr’s sister and three brothers) wanted to enroll. Nate felt strongly about that and wanted to be like his grandpa and father but at a young age, he was diagnosed with asthma, which put any future in the marines to a full stop.

Over the years, even though Harvey never said it out loud, he grew increasingly disappointed in Nate. This was something that was received loud and clear. He tried not to let it come to the surface if he could help it, especially when he had his mother, Fiona and two sisters, Hannah and Patricia to consider. When his father took a prolonged assignment that had him stationed across the Atlantic, that made Nate the man of the house. Even in a progressive age where being “the man” wasn’t as important, Nate knew he had to do his part. His mother worked like a dog and was mostly gone through the night, so really it was him and his sisters.

They lived in Los Angeles, but attended Beverly Hills High School. There he became acquainted with some folks who were like family to him (and some who had more of a personal impact on him). Nate wasn’t the type to excel academically. He got by and was able to move up the grades, but he wasn’t a scholar. Eventually his father caught wind of this and, though it was clear he was disappointed in his son, Harvey wasn’t going to allow his son to shit on the family name anymore than he already had (his words, not Nate’s). So he pulled a lot of strings and moved funds enough to ensure that Nate was given a mainstay at Meadow University, Harvey Jr and Harvey Sr’s alma mater.

So that’s Nate’s story. A life full of being the family disappointment all because of a diagnosis he didn’t ask for nor could he do anything about. His father might not blame him but Harvey was terrible at emoting what he really felt, so whatever came after the fact just lingered in Nate’s mind. It’s why he suffered in his life, it’s why he smokes a lot of weed and why he keeps to himself a lot. But despite his adversity, he never let it get him down. His father might’ve sucked and his mother worked too much (he just hopes she can find a point where rest is in her future), but none of that spoiled his appetite for having a good time.

That is what makes Nate the Great and that’s what really got him by in his darkest hours.

Misc.

✋Fontmeme || Baby Kruffy
✋ Nate has this thing where he will constantly refer to himself as great, sometimes going as far as to call himself "Nate the Great" to either build himself if people are clowning on him or just to make himself feel better if something bad happens.

✋ Nate is prone to spontaneous high fives and or hugs. What this means is he'll hug or high five someone. Should they deny him, he'll do it to himself. Never leave a bro hanging.

✋ Despite his build, he is actually quite athletic and plays sports. His three are soccer, football, baseball in which he has the goalie, backup runningback, and catcher positions respectfully (in high school).

✋ You might as well call him a stoner too because he smokes -- or eats, he doesn't care -- a lot of weed. He does it so he can cope with his anxiety and stress at home.

✋ Nate isn't a professional photographer nor does he have the skills of that Alex kid, but he loves taking pictures and regularly takes selfies of himself and others. His favorite thing is to photobomb, although other people are probably not as much of a fan of it he is. #saycheese

✋ Due to his strained relationship with his father and general lack of respect for authority, Nate regularly breaks rules, which only enhances his need to go on wild adventures. That being said, he does try to follow at least some rules ...so that he can break them the next time around. #multitaskingftw

✋ Rainy days. They are a huge damper on his good vibes, which he loves so much!

✋ Math and English might as well be his worst enemies because he can't seem to get along with them one bit.

✋ I really also like About Time

Gender

Year

3rd Year

Reason of Admission

Third-Generation Legacy
_{↳In addition to being a legacy, however, Theodore, along with his other two siblings, Bastien and Madéleine, all qualify for the other two ways to get into M.U. They are all equally wealthy and capable to get scholarships, but do not have them so they do not take slots from other deserving students.}

Major

Illistration and Graphic Design with a Minor in Art Theory

Sexuality

Undisclosed
_{↳Theo is very secretive about letting anyone know of his preferences. Like art, labels simply confine us to a certain space. Regardless of the gender, biological sex, or gender identity, who Theo loves or doesn’t love is something to remain between him and his potential significant other.}

Relationship Status

Like a canvas, his relationship status is empty and open for someone’s brush to begin a masterpiece. Although he wouldn't admit it outright, Theo might have a small crush on Kenna Diedrikson-Varma.

Label

The Alternate Artist

Appearance Details

Hair: Auburn | Theo’s hair is mostly unkempt but has a natural smoothness to it. In appearance, it appears to be naturally dark brown with red traces but he was born with abnormally dark red hair -- sort of auburn, kind of black. It’s also why his eyebrows appear to be very dark in color. He doesn’t usually stylize it unless it’s for a special circumstance (like a date or a formal event).
Eyes: Brown
Height & Weight: 6’1/165lbs
Body Type: Very athletically fit | Theo might be an artist from a prestigious family who might not typically have the body he does, but his art is an extension of himself and in some aspect, his body itself is the canvas in which his art can be seen. So weirdly, Theo treats his body with care by going to the gym regularly, keeping to a strict diet, and getting as finely toned as he can manage without it being too much. Through this, he has been able to obtain a body with toned abs and pecs, arms that are noticeably chiseled but not too much, and overall he has the body he is proud of (and sometimes likes to show off).
Clothing Style: Artistic and classy | Theo bridges his two loves for experimental fashion and classical French style into something that is one of a kind. He harbors several floral shirts and tye-dye-esque tops with a plethora of pants ranging from jeans to slacks to dress pants. He’ll wear a full suit and bowtie should he fancy it or should the situation call for it. He is just as likely to rock a simple tank and shorts. Truth be told, Theo is one of those guys who has a very adaptable style and dresses as the occasion calls for it. He’s also very seasonal with his outfits and will dress accordingly. His parents were a lot of things but they taught him and his siblings to dress as if they were aiming to impress someone.
Scars, Tattoos and/or Piercings: He has no scars that are worth mentioning, but in addition to several tattoos on his body -- including a half sleeve of rainbow-esque art on his left arm -- Theo has his ears pierced with multiple holes spread throughout.

Personality Traits

Nurturing → Loyal → Dedicated/Hard-Working → Artistic → Independent → Secretive → Somewhat Guarded → Stubborn → Snarky → Slightly Arrogant → Judgemental → Blunt/Speaks His Mind → Intentionally/Unintentionally Cruel

There should be a lot to say about Theor’s ability to survive adversity given his upbringing. From golden child to family disappointment, one thing that Theo has survived was pressure, which he thrives under but it still didn’t interfere with his own individuality that he has maintained from the time he could walk to this very moment. This also came with his ability to ignore the high dmands of his parents and focus mostly on his siblings. Caring for them when their care providers couldn’t or when the parents were too busy to do so. Family is one of the most important things to him and whether you’re related to Theo or have made such an impact that this often unruly individual who keeps his heart close to him considers you to be family, you might want to count yourself lucky because with everything that he is or everything he might become, Theodore Bonfamille will go to bat for you every single time he is able.

First impressions don’t mean a lot to Theo, not when the impressions after the fact tell him exactly what he wants to know. Maybe this is the part of him that’s unfair or too judgmental, but with as much disappointment he has felt from his parents and some he chose to get close enough to stab him, he takes extra steps to ensure that who he lets in won’t use the moments of his guard being lowered to attack him. When it comes to how he is before letting you in, Theo has been known to be borderline cruel, sarcastic, a tad snarky, and blunt. He’ll tell you exactly what he thinks about you. Good or bad, you’ll know his opinion the moment he opens his often trouble-starting mouth. As an artist, he needs to be able to think freely and sometimes that comes with a borderline arrogance in speaking his mind regardless of what he might say or how that might hurt another.

Deep down, one might see a softer side of Theodore -- a nurturing side. He was brought up not by his parents but by the members of the house staff who treated him, Bas, and Mads as their own children. Values were instilled into their minds and hearts and Theo clung to those values that, despite how much one doesn’t deserve it and no matter how much he would very much like to bash certain people’s heads in, taking the high road is what’s best to move on. He sometimes doesn’t always follow this as he has had bouts of aggression that landed him into fights and other unsavory situations, but Theo has always tried to be better than he was the last time. If he took three steps back before, he’d try and take four steps forward next time. He doesn’t have time to regret or frown on the what-ifs. He only has the time to be better than he was before. If nothing else, he has to do it for himself and his siblings.

Upbringing Synopsis

Perfection and high expectations had always been part of the equation when it came to the children of Thomas and Adelaide Bonfamille. The two of them were already famous around the world but particularly in the artistic and performing worlds but nothing became more apparent about their stature and position in their circles than when they had triplets: Theodore Gustave, the oldest,, the Bastien Clemente, the middle, and Madéleine Marie , the youngest.

Right off the bat, as soon as they were able, the triplets were put through all of the usual suspects of privilege: given fancy clothes, nannies, private school, lessons that would shape them into the perfect representation of the famous Bonfamille family. That name meant something and it carried power. Bastien and Madéleinewere the ones who carried most of the weight and didn’t succumb to the pressure. They were the ones who had mother and father’s approval.

And then there was Theodore.

Theodore Gustave Bonfamille. He, of anyone else, had the most to prove. Bastien was the middle, so he was able to not deliver on everything (even though he did and then some), and Madéleine was the baby. Despite also pulling her own weight, she always had both mother and father’s get out of jail free card, but Theodore? If he disappointed in any way, even if he wasn’t that far behind his siblings, there was always some form of disappointment. Maybe his brushstrokes weren’t perfect, or the results from his exams didn’t reach the level of perfection both Thomas and Adelaide expected from him.

And it got to him.

He didn’t let it show, especially when his younger brother and sister were concerned, but it weighed on his soul. The constant disappointment and way-too-high expectations laid upon him by his never-there parents made him seriously doubt himself. But at some point, there came a time that Theodore talked with his father. His mother was too rigid to ever hear him out but Theo always felt like his father was a little softer on the children and even though Theo wished Thomas was around more often, their talks meant a lot to him and even just letting his son freely speak his mind helped Theo gain some confidence back within himself and affirmed his skills. Adelaide, however, didn’t feel the same but Theodore chose to ignore her in favor of being his own man.

Throughout his adolescent life, Theodore grew up and became just the kind of person he wanted to be and not the person Adelaide wanted. He became a protector for his siblings, a confidant for his family, and, if some might pardon of the French, a fucking stud! His love for art had eventually surpassed the blank canvas of a sketchpad and he began treating his love for art by using his body as the masterpiece. Confidence improved when his body became more toned and when he had achieved a muscle mass he could be proud of. Then near the end of his senior year, when he was of age, on his 18th birthday -- and much to the dismay of his parents (mostly his mother, though -- Theo began his long journey of treating his body as a literal canvas for his designs as he inked it into his skin and getting his very first tattoo.

The reaction was, if nothing else, controversial. On one hand, Theodore was an adult in the eyes of American law, so he didn’t commit a crime but at the same time, with how rigid and strict Adelaide was, there were fights to be had and screaming matches. So many flared tempers that resulted in an even stricter and harsher helicopter parent when it came to Theodore. But honestly? He didn’t care. He was eighteen and he could do what he wanted. If Adelaide wanted to be disappointed in him, then she was free to do so but he wasn’t about to let her control him anymore. What were a few months living under her radar for the next four years at a college without her and her God-forsaken rules?

He was finally free to be himself. When the day came that he was accepted, even before his siblings had a chance to do anything, Theodore had booked a flight for Meadow View, Vermont and checked in early to Meadow University. He was going to be his own person finally and nothing anyone could do about that.

In the words of a famous literary character: Theodore was a free elf!

Appearance Details

Hair: Naturally dark brown, but Joey being the vibrant soul that she is, regularly dyes it different colors. Sometimes she will dye it multiple colors at once. Joey’s hair, when unstyled, is still relatively short as it falls just past her shoulders. As someone who one day wants to be a hairstylist and cares about looking cute, she often wears her hair in a myriad of styles. Among them are: Space Buns | Pigtails | Modified Pixie Cut | Naturally Wavy/Straight
Eyes: Joey’s eyes are a peaceful, grounded center of a deep sienna, like the bark of forest trees.
Height & Weight: Joey is five feet of pure radiant brilliance and high energy. And though she is short, she weighs roughly around 120lbs on account of her body shape.
Body Type: By all accounts, she is somewhat thin | Joey has curvy hips and thick thighs, as well as a full rear
Clothing Style: Joey’s fashion aesthetic is a n equal mix of sporty casual and risque rave.
Joey’s day time and everyday outfits has a strong mix of midrifs, sweatpants and jeans, booty shorts and denim jean shorts, and mini-skirts. She always wears some kind of choker with every outfit, though she does alternate between various colors. She’s a flats and sneaker kind of gal. | 1 2 3 4 5
For when she goes to parties and/or raves, one might say that Joey’s attire is a little less conservative. She loves her body, so she isn’t afraid to show it off. Sometimes this has her wearing bras, shorts that stop before mid-thigh, fishnet stockings (very rarely though), ultra crop jackets, mesh mini-skirts, and so much more that her parents wouldn’t approve of. | 1 2 3
Makeup Wise: Colorful and bold is a good way to describe Joey’s makeup. Mascara of all shades, lipstick that glistens in the light, very euphoric eyeshadow.
Scars, Tattoos and/or Piercings: If it can be pierced, no matter how painful or where,it is. | Joey has three tattoos -- all located on her left arm: a white rose on the inside of her wrist, the pansexual flag on her inner-elbow, and a purple heart over her ring finger.

Personality Traits

Compassionate ♥ Vibrant ♥ Fearless ♥ Excitable ♥ Empathetic ♥ Curious ♥ Artistic ♥ Introspective ♥ Unpredictable ♥ Wild ♥ Recklessly Careless ♥ Self-Destructive

Whether it’s a new outfit, debuting her new hairstyle, or even announcing herself to her friends, one thing Joey is always about is the aesthetic of the moment. Her ability to command a room to look at her seems to be unrivaled only because her vibrant smile and bold approach to fashion demands that she be looked at and she would be lying if she didn’t at least half-appreciate the attention. Admist this, though the attention will linger, she is undoubtedly a kind soul with a lot of love to give and plenty loyalty to spare. She is probably the best kind of friend to have because if you need to talk, she’ll make time to listen, no matter how much she has going on in her life at the time.

She has a default mode of curiosity mixed in with probably way too much optimism. She wants to know things about people. Mystery annoys her and negativity even more so, which is only natural because the notion of keeping things a secret is a foreign concept to her. She is open with just about anyone who wants to hear what she says. She’s known for being maybe just a tad too open as, like with ride-or-die, Lottie, she’s picked up on a certain brand of honesty unique to that crazy blonde BFF of hers.

With every ups that Joey possesses, whether it’s smiling so bright the room lights up in rainbow brilliance, or the natural good vibes she gives off, there is also a down -- a side effect of her excitable, nigh bubbly personality. This comes in a sort-of-kind-of-most-definitely wild side that not even spring breakers might be able to compete with. Whether this is a side effect of manic having its worst form or just some need to live up every possible moment, there is a certain madness to how negligent she is when surrounded by people who enable her. It doesn’t matter if the party is only with ten people or over a hundred, from dancing on tables to getting two random guys and/or girls to dance with her, Joey has all the potential in the world to literally lose her mind in the midst of a chaotic scene that matches the pulsating EDM beat that could very well be playing.

Joey lives for every moment, she lives to get the most out of her life. She might be a bit of a wild one, but that’s always been why people seem to gravitate towards her. For better or for worse, she is a free spirit and rules nor advice of friends can contain her. She flies how she wants to fly.

Upbringing Synopsis

You can’t say that Joey Hart has lived up to the immense expectations set upon her since her birth nearly twenty years ago. You can’t say that being a Hart -- especially the youngest of four children -- that the expectations to be great weren’t forced upon her before she could even learn of her family history. You cannot say that Joey Hart had a shot of being a normal girl, regardless what age she was at the point, because everyone was always tugging at her left and right, pulling her to go into law enforcement like her brothers and father did or to be a certified diva like her mother and an artist like her older sister. You can’t say that Joey ever had a chance to decide what she wanted.

And this was true. Joanna Penelope Hart, the youngest of four children, was born into a life full of expectations. These kinds of expectations were usually pushed on the oldest, but what could really be said about that? Joey was the baby of the family. Her former Queen of Pop-turned-businesswoman, Savanna Hart and father, former Marine turned eventual Deputy-Director of the FBI, and three older siblings — Tyson, Samara, and even her own (older) twin brother, Wyatt Junior — all of them proved to be better at her with handling all of the insanely-high expectations laid upon her.

So, what exactly were these assumptions she was expected to be held to? To be the best. To be like her siblings. To reach the level of perfection that her parents did when they were age. To have goals in her life, but she didn’t -- at least, not those that neither Savanna nor Wyatt seemed to approve of. Truth was, being baby of the family didn’t necessarily mean she was going to be given the most leeway; in fact, for Joanna, it was the complete opposite. She was given the least amount of freedom, which probably explained why she became such a problem child as she grew up.

At some point in her life, Joey made the subconscious decision to act a certain way. She’s always been the sort of girl to have problems with boundaries and authority but her parents always accepted that, especially after Savanna’s mother, Adielle, said that she acted the same way as Joey was starting to behave when she was her age. Savanna didn’t really think much of it until history repeated itself. Back when Adielle was about sixteen, she had a wild night with friends (although during that point, it wasn’t as controversial as it would be now). For Joey, her “wild night with friends” came around the time of her Sweet Sixteen. Being both privileged and from a famous family, MTV wanted to televise it as a special episode of their Sweet 16 series. But this was a big mistake that nobody saw coming.

During the filming, during the organization, and then during the actual party itself, Joey’s reliance on certain drugs and pills was starting to become apparent. During the party, during the chaotic nature of the dancing and the music, whilst on drugs, whilst being under the influence of both alcohol and the enablers she surrounded herself with, Joey let loose and it came to the point where it was more about just “partying”. She climbed onto the stage and for the unlucky guitarist of 5 Seconds of Summer, everyone bore witness to Joanna Hart doing her best attempt at using the drummer as a human stripper pole, causing a stir and the episode to stop airing live (as it had been).

Joey’s Sweet Sixteen caused quite a stir both in circles who praised the boldness of her self-expression and criticised her parents for letting their daughter get out of control. She was bashed on twitter, instagram, made into a meme on reddit and 4chan, and that was only the beginning. Soon, a full scandal erupted, causing stocks in HartCorp to drop and questions being brought to what sort of parents Savanna and Wyatt were. The media attention was a lot. Despite this, nothing that was being said could top what her parents said to her during that night.

A lot happened at home that night, things were said, and emotions rang high. A lot of it never left the Hart household but amidst everything, one thing was decided. At the beginning, this decision was impulsive in the way it was decided, but when her parents made the decision to send Joey off to a London Boarding school, it proved to be the best worst decision they made. Joey, of course, didn’t like it. In fact, she hated it at first. She was being stripped away from her life in New York. Her family was there and friends, too. But the more time passed and the more time she spent in London and away from the enablers of her vices, the more it became clear this was the best thing for her. Joey excelled at her classes as soon as she adjusted into the mindset and, though her admission into Meadow University wasn’t necessarily dependent on her grades, she still made it in with some high marks in addition to the Hart Dynasty money.

But being at Meadow U. proved to be a bit of a reverting process for her, which was to say old habits really did die hard and Joey had to -- and is still trying to -- relearn and reteach herself restraint.

“I wish someone would just give me the cheat sheet.”

What Are You Listening To?

I am not typically a Korean music listener, but this is a beautiful track that definitely hit me for some reason. It brought me back to my love for Jpop melodies.
