Hand Covers Bruise}

After the man in the McDonald’s window handed her the familiar bag with the red and yellow logos, Danielle Jones sped away as quickly as a garish yellow Vespa Super Sport could allow. Inside the bag was life and life was getting too expensive for its own good. At this time of morning, when the sun had barely poked its radiant arms into the eyes of a population too bothered to lower the sun visor, everything was still. The roads were hardly ever empty but there were far fewer cars on the road at this time. The ones coming home from a late night shift, the ones heading to their morning shifts, united in spirit and wearing a wardrobe of baggy eyes and exaggerated yawns. Danielle Jones turned out of the McDonald’s and onto the open road, Italian-made engine sputtering along; In the oncoming lane, a bushy headed man of middle age does a double take as the Vespa breezes past. He rubs his eyes. The Vespa is in the rearview, its driver unconcerned.

The breeze whips a gentle lash on Dani’s face, a bagel sandwich with folded egg and sausage barely fit for a dog held between gritted teeth, careful not to take too hard a bite lest the sandwich meet the road. The open air and the lack of protection on the eyes or head give Dani the appearance of a child sticking their open mouth near a fan blowing on its highest setting. Her eyes drip water and her milk chocolate hair blows behind her like it's trying to escape. Dani’s mothers always told her and her sisters to wear protection- they had to clarify they didn’t mean a condom in this case when it came to Addie - but Dani never did. No one has ever looked good in a helmet as they zoomed down the road on a motorcar and Dani wasn’t about to try and go against centuries of documented evidence. The breeze died down as the light ahead drifted to red and for the first time since leaving the golden arches, Dani tasted life. Greasy, overcooked, delicious, beautiful life.

At the stop light, Dani looked around. No pedestrians walking the sidewalk. No other cars around the intersection, the first ray of dawn painting the street in warm tones and she’d never known such loneliness. It brought a smile to her lips. At home, she had a zoo to deal with. Her moms - that had been less difficult to get used to than she thought - had a tendency to buy affection and her sister JJ took advantage enough to have more rodents running around the house than a New York street. Her sister PJ wasn’t a fan and her sister Addie…well, the sounds of silence cut with the percussion of her Vespa engine was much better aurally than whatever salacious sound made up her alarm. Noise was all over her house and while she contributed her fair share - at least half of the PJ rodent screams were because Dani ‘accidentally’ left Big Cheese’s cage open and the mouse crawled into PJ’s bed overnight - she still enjoyed the silence. It hadn’t always been like that. Silence used to destroy her. When she first moved into her current household, after the funeral, she couldn’t sleep without crying and she only cried because being alone in her thoughts, in the quiet of a bedroom, would only make her remember her mother. Her sisters helped. More than they knew. More than she told.

The light turned green but Dani hadn’t even realized until it was turning yellow again and she was zooming on her way. Her breakfast sandwich was a pile of mush in her stomach that would churn into a pile of regret by lunch period. It wasn’t everyday that Dani was so early on the road, but it wasn’t every day that Dani got to be on camera.

Dani turned into the student parking lot as the clock struck close to seven. Her ankle boots stepped onto the asphalt as she shut the engine off and took her first breath of the day. In the corner of her ear she heard the unmistakable call of a raspy ‘Fuck’ and the sound of polyurethane rolling along the ground. For someone who seemed to hate going to school, Dani couldn’t help but to wonder why that girl was here so often. She didn’t acknowledge Everly with anything other than a brief glance in her direction, which was met with a tilt of the head and a kickflip, as if the skater was trying to say ‘look what I can do’ the way a child did when they learned something that was only impressive to an undeveloped mind. Dani didn’t dislike Everly, they’d even worked together and Dani filmed Everly doing tricks, but even Spike Jonze had to move on from shooting music videos and skateboard demos.

Her backpack, inside which was her Lumix camera, was hoisted out of the storage box under her Vespa seat. The long walk to the media wing and Morning Show studio was familiar at this point. After three, soon to be four, years of this place, everything had sort of become routine. Same hallways. Same people. Same sights. Same sounds. Same couples breaking up, fucking up, fucking, and getting back together only to repeat the process because in high school everyone thought with their bodies, not their minds. Dani was no different, other than not having a couple to do the cycle with. Maybe that’s why she turned her head away from the couple on the lawn holding hands before the bell rang. Or maybe she just didn’t want to see them try to eat each other’s faces and call it making out.

The routine was death. She’d read stories how adults with jobs sometimes still woke up in a cold sweat thinking they had homework they forgot to do or a test they didn’t study for and she could believe it. By sophomore year, high school stops feeling like anything other than a four year Stanford prison experiment. There was no greater psychological torture than having to endure math class and being told how important the pythagorean theorem was. A Squared plus B Squared equals Fuck Off. Maybe that's why she did what she did last year. Boredom. An attempt to make every day not feel the same. The Toad Sings prank raised her social stock in school, an unfortunate side effect as she had spent so much time being the silent hero of the Morning Show. The woman behind the camera who made others look good. Directors won awards, sure, but people remembered actors more. That was her place and she was good at it. But even the best directors liked to appear in their own works from time to time.

Her booted feet carried her up the stairs but it was her own tempered excitement that had her practically taking them two at a time. That excitement lasted until she arrived on the floor and saw Jamie - or rather the back of him - rush past and then, a bit further down the hall and engaged in conversation she didn’t want to overhear, were Trixie and Ethan. As Dani continued towards the studio, not giving either the time of day, she couldn’t help but to shake her head.


_{In Motion}

Ethan Green is a fuckboy. I don’t say, or think, that lightly, i think that because it’s true and no one wants to admit it. All the Greens or Greenlocks or whoever are different flavors of fuck from boy to head but anyone who rolls around in a group calling themselves The Elite is in dire need of a reality check.

In case you didn’t know who it is guys like Ethan Green represent, his aunt owns the Seattle Mariners. The baseball team. Because Hailey’s wife wanted season tickets. That’s what people like that do. They remind the world that they have enough money to spit on the little guy and throw him fifty bucks for dry cleaning and act like they’re doing the world a favor.

I mean sure, it’s only baseball and no one watches baseball anymore other than balding, fat dudes in their twenties by way of looking like they’re forty, but it’s the principle of the matter. Kids at this school have a family member who owns a baseball team. Before you start getting it twisted, I’m not jealous. I don’t exactly come from a poor family, but the difference is I carry twenty bucks on me at any given time and people like Ethan Green think a black card gives them the authority to walk around like they’re Zeus.

Well, I mean Ethan Green would probably fuck a swan so I guess there’s truth to that.

I’d sooner subject myself to listening to Himani Chakrabarti for five minutes than spend two in a bathroom with Ethan Green. At least Himani is humble.

Leaving the discussion between Ethan and Trixie in the rear, Dani entered the studio, said good morning to absolutely no one, and placed her bag on an empty seat at a table that had refreshments - stale danish and all - for the crew to enjoy before and after a show. Her co-hosts in crime, Rye and Sully, were having a conversation that seemed almost as heated as the one she passed by in the hall. By her watch, she had minutes to spare, more the fault hers for stopping by McDonald’s rather than eat a donut and run the risk of getting chocolate over her denim jacket.

Rye and Sully are fuckboys too but they’re different from Ethan. Sully doesn’t seem to know that most girls would find a guy like that to be as irresistible as a piece of decadent chocolate cake. A mama’s boy with a body and good with his hands? Powerful weapon in the right hands, we’re all just lucky he’d prefer those hands squeezing a joystick rather than a pair of tits. Rye is a fireman in training or something and everyone knows how people feel about firemen. Well, the ones without beer bellies or porn haircuts anyway. He probably gets around as much as Ethan but I’ve never asked and he’s had the good sense not to boast about it in the studio.

The difference between them and Ethan Green is Rye and Sully have personality beyond whatever it takes to put their dick in something. Maybe I’m biased because Sully brings me coffee sometimes, but Rye and Sully don’t make my skin crawl. Maybe in another life I’d have gotten to know them better than I have but until last year I don’t think anyone knew me as anything other than a camera girl so the road goes both ways.

I don’t want to impose on their conversation, but if I did, I’d probably say that I don’t care who’s having sex with who - other than me having sex with no one which sucks - but that if it ruins the chemistry at the Morning Show then I’ll personally collect their heads and make a necklace from them.

And I don’t mean the ones on their neck. Obviously. That’d be too big for a necklace.

The call for three minutes left came just as Dani closed her compact mirror. What counted as hair and makeup was essentially ‘on your own’ and Dani had to run her hand through her hair to make it less…frizzy from the drive in. Her mothers might have had a point about protection but that didn’t mean she had to follow it.

At the two minute mark, Dani made her way towards the desk and took her seat, immediately propping her feet up on the counter like she was at home. In a way, she was. Her eyes glanced over the copy handed to her and she parsed absolutely none of it. If they expected Dani Jones to go by the script, then they hadn’t known her at all. Half the fun of the Morning Show was trying to get the others to break.

“You know, three creams is a delicacy in some parts of the world.” Dani said to Sully as he handed her her cup of coffee. “Like in….Turkmenistan. You owe an apology to the Turkmen peoples, Sully. I’ll accept it on their behalf. They take credit, debit, or cash.”

The one minute warning had sounded thirty seconds ago and the sign to outsiders that they were going live was lit up. Quiet on the set, the whole spiel. Mr. Wells pointed to Dani. Dani waved back. Mr. Wells sighed. Dani waited until there were five seconds left and they were being counted in before she took her feet off the desk.

She was, after all, a professional.

Ｉｎｔｒｏ

► reputation

Depending on who you ask, Everly is either really fuckin' cool or the biggest disappointment since the Obama administration; take a guess as to which camp Everly likes to associate with. Most everyone at BHHS knows that Everly's father, Richard Rigby is a local politician with goals of higher office (in his dayjob he is an attorney) while her mother, Megan Rigby is an on-screen reporter for a morning news broadcast. But Everly doesn't exactly take after either of them; for one thing she's not a Republican ghoul like her dad or a trophy like her mom (though Everly considers herself quite a fuckin' catch). For another, Everly is known for being a bit of a wild child. Cutting class, doing sick kickflips in the parking lot despite being told not to, more detention appearances than attendance, and always showing up at parties even if she wasn't invited.

Everly doesn't give a fuck but she's someone that doesn't give a fuck without actually trying to look like she doesn't give a fuck. The people that think she's cool are her kinda people; they're all cool.

► current dilemma

Everly doesn't show it, but she is worried that her lack of attendance and low grades will prevent her from graduating, which wouldn't be cool and kinda humiliating. She barely skated by to senior year, with low Cs and high Ds for the most part which is already embarassing enough. She's got a lot to figure out this year, including if she'll be a high school drop out and how she'll even have a roof over her head if her parents find out and kick her out.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Ｄｅｔａｉｌｓ

► social media handles

Everly is very consistent and uses the same handle on all her social media. Her Twitter, Instagram, Discord, Steam, and her TiKTok (which has almost 10k followers!) all go by 'RigbyGoesDown'.

► style

Everly doesn't wear designer clothes, the only brands she cares about are the ones who make her skate deck. And wheels. When it comes to clothes, rare is the time when Everly's black hair isn't adorned with a hat, be it a baseball cap or her rotating closet of beanie caps. Jeans, crop tops, long sleeve shirts with checkerboard patterns, Everly's entire style looks like it fell out of a skateboarding magazine from, like, the early to mid 2000s. She has two tattoos, one on each arm, which she got with a fake I.D. two years ago. She has a lip piercing on the lower right side. And for some reason she really likes wearing short shirts so her stomach is showing. But, really, can you blame her?

► ride & everyday items

If she's not bumming rides from people, Everly arrives in style: on her skateboard, often signaling her arrival by grinding on a railing or the back of a bench. She stopped doing the bench as often. Too many bails. Her fans on TikTok love it though.

► occupation

Recently fired from the 7-11 for letting her friends drink all the Gatorade.

► extracurricular activities

Anything she can do to not go home right away. Often includes hanging out with her friends, skating, getting high, or trying to get a girlfriend without seeming too desperate or creepy. What? She's not cool 100 percent of the time!

"Yeah yeah, I know, but my mom liked this song and I dunno...it kinda reminds me of the before times. When, like, we got along. Still cant understand what the fuck Patrick Stump is saying."
"93 'Til Infinity by Souls of Mischief. I dare you to find a song that better fits the defintion of 'a vibe'. I also dare you to listen to this and not bob your head. Anytime I'm getting high and have the aux? We're playin this when it hits."
"Mad This Summer by August is Falling. Can't believe this band never got the attention it deserved but they're basically the greatest pop punk band to ever do it."
"Holiday by Weezer. This band fuckin' sucks but like this song is pretty good to blast when goin' on a drive."
"Like Eating Glass by Bloc Party. This was the first time I, like, really heard drums in a song. I didnt know why at the time but when I heard this song the first time I wanted to be a fuckin drummer. But like just listen to the drums, man! They're so fuckin cool. I should be a drummer."

"Guided by Angels by Amyl and the Sniffers. I think I'd look cool in mullet, man."
"Your Sick Blooms by The Hunches. I fuck with music that kinda sounds like people in a garage just seeing what works."
"When I was like 12 years old I thought the line about not drowning demons cuz they can swim was the deepest shit. Meme aside this song still fucks, you know it does."
"Wylin by Kevin Gates. I had to ask my dad what Luca Brasi meant. This song is better than that three hour boring shit called The Godfather."
"Today's Your Day by Fatlip. Honestly, this album changed my life. I, too, am a lonely punk. Well not lonely. I have friends. But...look it's just a good album and this song fucks."
"Fuck you, this song rules. Don't believe me? Try and listen to the chorus without belting it out. My go-to karaoke song and I don't give a fuck who hates it."

"When my dad, before I realized he was the worst person on earth, took me to a ranch and I got to ride a horse. I was seven. I still have the cowboy hat."

If I could tell my younger self something, I would say:

"They're lying to you about the importance of math."

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Ｉｎｔｒｏ

► reputation

To even have a reputation at BHHS would require more than the janitor knowing your name. Sara Delgado might as well be a ghost. A non-entity. Sure, she sets the grading curve in her classes, but if you ask any of her classmates to point her out they would collectively ask who the hell Sara Delgado even is. Though she has been tutoring since sophomore year, the students she tutors have never so much as thanked her or acknowledged her role in helping them pass tests. But it's fine. She doesn't do it for the thanks. Her family isn't notable, other than her cousins and uncle being in jail and her father currently working in Mexico while her mother works at a hotel. She doesn't come from means, but her abuelita invited her and her mother to live with her as she lived off the residuals from her time as a baker on Mexican broadcasting. But of course, no one really knows that about Sara or her family because no one knows Sara. She eats her lunch in the janitor's closet because the bathroom would make her lose her appetite.

► current dilemma

Sara's big struggle was ended when she got her acceptance letter to college, Pomona College, which was a milestone as no one in her family had gone to college, let alone one of the top ranked undergrad schools in the country. So her current dilemma is...how is she going to be remembered? People say high school is the best four years of ones life but she hasn't had anything memorable. No friends, no dates, never been to a dance, a sporting event, a party, nothing. Can she make up for lost time in a single school year? Time will tell, but time is rapidly running out. If she's going to be remembered, she has to find a way to ensure that no one ever forgets Sara Delgado.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Ｄｅｔａｉｌｓ

► social media handles

Sara has two social media accounts. Her Twitter account, which has 50 followers - all of which are bots - is @DelgadoLegado. She sometimes responds to the bots who respond to her tweets because no one else does.
She has an Instagram but it's mostly pictures of her abuelita's baked goods. That account is @SaraDelicious

► style

Sara's style is...muted. She doesn't wear designer clothes and most of what she does wear are hand me downs from her cousins. She wears a lot of what could be described as...clothing. Flannel jacket, nondescript blouses or long t-shirts on laundry day, dress skirts. Some days she'll wear jeans but she's noticed that her clothes are starting to be a lot tighter on her, which is only compounding her massive amount of insecurities and anxieties. She's in need of a makeover, but she'd need to know where to even start.

► ride & everyday items

She takes public transportation and her own feet to get to school. Sara is never without her yellow backpack which is adorned with pins and buttons of adorable, cute, cheesy food related puns, like "Let's Avo-cuddle" or "That's my jam!" She has dozens of these. Dozens. And she might be changing them out weekly, no one really knows.

► occupation

Worked at the library over summer. It was a good job.

► extracurricular activities

She tutors at the school library during free periods and after school. Never been thanked but has helped many students pass tests, including athletes who needed a certain GPA to even be eligible.

Ｑｕｅｓｔｉｏｎｎａｉｒｅ

Friends would describe me as _______.

"I...don't have friends. Unless you count the janitor who lets me eat lunch in his closet. I think he'd describe me as...that girl. Yeah...yeah that's about right. Uhm...next question?"

In my free time I like to _______.

"Study. Read. Help my abuelita make cakes and cookies and pies. Mostly study. Did you know a group of parrots is called a pandemonium? I'm full of little tidbits and knowledge facts like that but most people..uhm...don't find it as...uh...interesting as I do...uhm....n...next question."

I would like to learn _______ in the next year.

"How to make a friend. Oh sorry, does this have Kleenex? Did you know Kleenex came from products used in gas mask filters in World War 1 which were then repurposed to Kotex feminine sanitary pads? But consumers were modest so didn't like to buy what were effectively tampons so they were again repurposed into make up removal face cloths and the rest is history? Sorry...I'm good now."

This is how I define success and failure:

"The only measure of success and failure I know is what grade I get on tests. Getting good grades and into a good school is the only way I'll be able to not end up like most of my family. But it's not their fault. They're not bad people, they just...immigration is a complicated issue in this country."

I'm inspired by _______.

"Ellen Ochoa, the first Hispanic woman to go to space and first Hispanic director of Johnson Space Center. I don't want to be an astronaut but it's still inspiring that someone like her can open doors for the next Hispanic woman who DOES want to go to space. I hope one day someone is inspired by me...even if they'll just be inspired to not do what I do..."

These songs are the soundtrack to my life:

"Jay Electronica's verse on Control is poetic."
"Never Meant by American Football. When I was first told about math rock I thought it was music about math. It kinda is. But it kinda isn't. But this is the first song on my study playlist and it's why I enjoy songs with unique time signatures."
"Spring Rain by Elephant Gym. I said I liked songs with unique time signatures and I do. It's not all I like, but songs like this help me focus. Like...to get in the zone, you know?"
"Caravan by Duke Ellington. I could put a lot of jazz here, but I'll always go back to this recording."
"La célula que explota by Caifanes. My uncle, before going away, made sure he let me know that it wasn't just the Americans and the British that could make rock music. This was one of his favorite songs. I can see why."
"Eres by Café Tacvba. Simplemente una canción perfecta."
"Face to Face by Daft Punk. The sheer number of samples used to make this song is staggering. And I think that's amazing, that people so talented could take things from other songs and make this incredible production."
"Alphabet Aerobics by Blackalicious. I once tried to test myself to learn the whole song. I got to the Rs."
"Trains by Porcupine Tree. I don't have much to say, but this song makes me feel like I'm having memories of a life I never lived. One where I had summers with friends."
"Do It, Try It by M83. I'm kinda thinking of adopting the title of this song as my mantra going forward. It couldn't hurt, right?"

My fondest memory as a child was _______.

"Baking cookies with my abuelita for a family wedding. She booped my nose with powedered sugar and didn't tell me so when I went to play with the other kids at the wedding they laughed at my nose, it was so funny! I still have the picture from the wedding and you can see my sugar nose! I think that's why I love sweets so much."

If I could tell my younger self something, I would say:

"Life is what you bake it!"

The things that make me smile are _______.

"My abuelita and her sweets. Getting an A on a test. Pop quizzes. Oatmeal creme pies. Food puns. Myself, because no one else will."

"You know who I am." Every student and faculty member, whether they want to or not, knows who Naomi Davis is. Even those who are newly transferred or freshmen will know within their first week, if not their first day, who Naomi Davis is. Naomi is, in no small terms, the royalty of BHHS - there must always be a queen bee in the hive and a legion of workers catering to their whim. Naomi is the latest in line and while some might hope that the days of mean girl, elitist rich snobby queen types went out the door...that hope was quickly dashed when Naomi, shortly after truly being handed the torch from the last queen, audibly berated a new student for daring to sit at the Queen's Table in the cafeteria. She's mellowed since then. Somewhat. If you're in Naomi's court, you're treated well. If you're not in her court, she'll likely not care enough about you to give you much notice. If you're opposed to her? Well, may god have mercy on your soul because in the halls of BHHS the only god worth praying to is Naomi. Of course, she wouldn't be an effective queen if she was publicly rude and cruel - all the best royals keep that sort of thing in private chambers for a reason - but what she is is quite manipulative and gifted at oration. Naomi has a reputation of being someone who can cut you down to size while making it seem like she's being complimentary, and you wouldn't even know it until later when the wound opens. Like a samurai who ends a duel and their opponent is smiling right until blood bursts from their chest.

A good portion of her reputation and power comes from her father, Elijah Davis, who was recently cited in Forbes as being, quote, "the most successful African American in the film industry since Tyler Perry". Elijah Davis' net worth was in the range of a billion thanks to him smoothly navigating the cutthroat world of film and media production. Elijah Davis was quoted as saying "MeToo and the ousting of Weinstein was the greatest thing that ever happened to me" as it allowed him to use the power vacuum to his advantage. Naomi is not above using the influence of her father to great effect, such as sweetly telling the numerous aspiring actors and actresses of BHHS that "I could put in a good word with my father...he practically runs Hollywood, you know. A lot of doors can be opened, and I do so hate to have to...shut them.". There's an unspoken law around Naomi that those who are in her good graces get preferential treatment. In her junior year she used said influence to send athletes to the Super Bowl, some theater kids to the Tony's, and students who annoyed her on a six hour bus ride disguised as a field trip to Vegas; instead it was a six hour trip to Death Valley and back.

Naomi maintains a great rapport with the faculty and principal thanks in no small part to her father's monetary contributions to fund raisers as well as Naomi having a habit of hearing good ideas from students and presenting them to the faculty as if they were her own ideas. And if someone protests that their idea was stolen...well..."How did that work out for the Winklevoss twins?" The smart ones know Naomi enough to know not to protest; at least then they might still get invited to the good parties.

Everyone in BHHS knows Naomi. The question is if they know enough to stay off her shit list.

► current dilemma

Every queen at BHHS faces the issue of legacy. They want to leave behind a legacy that future students speak about in addition to finding someone to carry on the crown, so to speak. Naomi realizes her time at the top is running out but she feels as if she hasn't accomplished anything other than proving that nepotism is great if it works for you. She doesn't want to wake up the day after graduation and wonder if she has friends or just sycophants. Despite her reputation, Naomi does want the best for the school which is why she so strongly rallies against those she thinks are 'tarnishing' the reputation. To that end, her major dilemma is how can she make her last year impactful while also ensuring the personal relationships she has are genuine. What does it mean to be queen of BHHS? Heavy is the head that wears the crown. She just hopes she isn't beheded before the end of the year.

Naomi has a Twitter account @NaomiDavis76 and her pinned tweet is a picture she took with Taylor Swift, just so people know who she knows.
Her Instagram is @DavisDoes and is mostly used to showcase her outfits or meals or candids. Typical influencer stuff.
She has a second Insta and Twitter that she swears isn't hers. Both of those accounts are @DiscoGlitter and are related to the Gliter City Roller Palace, a roller rink and roller disco in the area that is a decently popular hangout.

Naomi doesn't set fashion trends but she does keep track of what is in fashion. Appearance matters and anyone who says otherwise is lying and probably wears the same hooded sweatshirt to school every day and the same shirt all weekend. In school, she wears designer clothes from Valentino or YSL or Mincy Coture or even high casual brands purchased from The Mermaid's Closet. Casually on weekends she'll dress down a bit, jeans and sneakers, the kind of thing that reminds people that even the elite can look normal.
Naomi really likes wearing skirts, though. In her words "My legs could start wars, why not remind people?"

► ride & everyday items

Not to show off, but Naomi arrives in a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, the height of luxury sedans. It was a sweet sixteen present and that sweet sixteen party was...next level. She is rarely ever seen without her $4,000 Chanel leather handbag. Her whole life is in that bag.

► occupation

Off the books helps operate Glitter City Roller Palace. She was involved in the rennovation under the guise of 'philantrophy' for college applications. As she is not yet technically allowed to own a business legally, her name is off the ledger. But it is her baby.

► extracurricular activities

While not technically in any clubs, Naomi is a social butterfly and makes appearances at school events and has her fingers and toes and eyes around the building. She wants to be on student council, but is considering letting members of her court handle that.

Friends would describe me as _______.

"Loyal, loving, fun, you could slot in any number of adjectives. Even some negative ones would technically be appropriate. Look, we all have flaws, some of us can just afford to buy concealer. So if some of my friends wish to describe me as...intense or intimidating, that's their right. Am I snobbish? Maybe. But this country was built by those who had enough money to pay people to build things. Elitism founded this country, I'm just following an example that history laid out for me."

In my free time I like to _______.

"How precious that you think a woman of my means and stature has the luxury of free time. Free time is for people whose future include asking if I want fries with that before complaining that the minimum wage is too low. It's called minimum for a reason, dear. Try harder."

I would like to learn _______ in the next year.

"If I learn just one thing in the next year then it will have been a waste. But in the interest of answering...I suppose I would like to learn how to ski. I'd like to visit Aspen."

This is how I define success and failure:

"Failure is what happens when people would rather complain that they can't afford things and demand that those who can bail them out. Success is knowing you can write off a six digit donation to charity on taxes and not even flinch as you sign the check."

I'm inspired by _______.

"Myself."

These songs are the soundtrack to my life:

"Boogie Wonderland by Earth, Wind, and Fire. Too many people think EWF only had September and it is incredibly annoying."
"Miss Broadway by Belle Epoque"
"I Love You More by George Duke. It takes talent to have an iconic opening eleven seconds and then never using it anywhere else in the song."
"Dazz by Brick"
"Supersonic by J.J. Fad"
"White Lines (Don't Do It) by Grandmaster Mellie Mel"
"South Bronx by Boogie Down Productions"
"Planet Rock by Afrika Bambaataa & The Soulsonic Force"
"I'll Take Your Man by Salt n Pepa"
"Did you know a lot of people think white people did this song? They wish."
"While I prefer Anne's Song, this song basically marked the beginning of a decade defined by mediocrity so I have to respect it."

My fondest memory as a child was _______.

"The night I saw my dad crying in the kitchen shortly after my mom...well, he had always been so adamant that men had to suffer in silence so seeing him finally cry - albeit only because he believed absolutely no one would ever see him - was strangely sobering. It didn't last long, I think he heard me looking from a doorway, but after he wiped his tears and blew his nose, we had ice cream in a waffle bowl. I had rainbow colored sprinkles on top of my chocolate chip, he just had plain chocolate - low fat because he was watching his figure. We didn't talk but we had a conversation anyway. I thought I'd ask for a hug after but I didn't want to be a bother, he was going through a lot. The next day he bought me an entire new wardrobe and that was the fondest memory, all those new clothes."

If I could tell my younger self something, I would say:

"Don't waste your time on those who can't be grateful for all you give to them. If you give one poor person money, they all expect money. The same can be said of favors."

The things that make me smile are _______.

"Retail therapy. My collection of 8-tracks and cassettes and getting new additions to said collection. When my father isn't too busy to have dinner with me. Or breakfast. Glitter City."

► reputation

When Dani first got to BHHS, the faculty seemed to give her more of a reputation than she did; of course only the faculty and her family knew about her parents and her unfortunate situation so it was understandable. But it quickly became apparent that Dani was more than able to garner a reputation on her own. As one of the infamous Jones sisters, DJ might come off as normal in comparison to, say, JJ, but that's only because Dani manages to keep her...eccentricities contained to platforms where she can express them. To people who don't know DJ (or who don't live with her) she comes off as...fairly normal, if a bit on the overly sarcastic side, but over the years DJ has been letting her true self shine through. Now, after a rather impressive prank that landed her detention for the rest of her junior year (fortunately, only a couple months at that point), people are starting to finally realize that other than her strange fascination with movies and making the morning show into something cinematic, DJ is kind of a prankster. It was only a matter of time before DJ proved that just because she was adopted in, under terrible circumstances, that she's still a Jones Sister through and through.

And there's no better current student in BHHS to come to if you need something filmed. So says DJ, anyway.

► current dilemma

DJ will be 18 soon and while she doesn't expect to be removed from the care of the foster system - especially because she was adopted within her own family - but she feels like she owes it to her stepmom and aunt to give back in some capacity. But more immediately she's worried that the mental health issues that destroyed her biological parents is hereditary and if so what that means for her. She doesn't want to end up like her mom but that worry lingers at the back of her mind. Is that why she finds solace in pranking? Not really, that's just good humor. DJ is in a rare position where she knows what she wants to do in life but is worried that her own potential hereditary hangups might get in the way.

Her Twitter and Instagram both have the handle @DaniDirects. But you can find her moreso on TikTok at DaNiidleDrop where she instigates fights, arguments, and discussion by debating film tropes and needle drops in movies inbetween using it as a reel to show her directing and editing skills.

► style

The most important part of Dani's outfit is that she always, always wears a heeled ankle boot to the point where she'll wear them even if she's in formal clothing. She has a fascination with plad and denim, but never at the same time because that's just...a massive faux pas. Fashion was never really her interest, but in addition to her ankle boots her preferred style is "anything sleeveless". She thinks her arms are her best feature. She might have a point.

► ride & everyday items

If she could get away with carrying a professional film camera around, she would, but as it stands she instead brings a handheld Lumix with her. Just in case. She has a yellow vespa that she drives to and from school. Why a yellow vespa? Because ride on shooting star.

► occupation

Freelance editing and filming of things.

► extracurricular activities

Dani has been part of the A/V crew since freshman year. She works on The Morning Show, the BHHS morning announcements program, as both an on air and behind the scenes talent. Students know when Dani is behind the camera because it actually moves and uses different techniques other than the flat news-desk style presentation that it normally has. Some people find her techniques annoying, others appreciate the attempt to jazz it up. When on-air she tends to play the sarcastic co-host. Otherwise she can be found after school in a diner eating hashbrowns and bacon cheeseburgers with a fried egg and a vanilla coke. No ice.

It was I think the last time I remember seeing my mom and dad happy at the same time, but then it was hard for my dad to be happy after what happened. We ate the ice cream cake and watched The Sandlot. That was my dad's favorite movie when he was my age. I liked it. It was strawberry. The ice cream cake. I remember because it was the most pink thing I'd ever seen and tasted. My name was spelled wrong on the cake. It said Daniel. Dani has always been easier.

(FC: Yu Ji-min (Karina); Dialogue: d9274c)

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Ｉｎｔｒｏ

► reputation

There was a time when Amy Kwon's name was spoken of the way musicians sing about their unrequited loves. She was popular without being part of the black hole that is Naomi's regime; she went to parties, had to turn down offers to go to dances and on dates just because of the sheer amount of them, and she got decent grades to boot. It was almost sickening how perfect Amy Kwon seemed to be; even without being in the queen bee's court, Amy Kwon was in the upper echelon simply by virtue of being popular, attractive, and above all kind. She was basically a precious princess.

That Amy Kwon doesn't exist anymore.

Near the end of junior year, Amy Kwon lost the thing most important to a popular student: their reputation. It started with a text. A simple link to a website. The website contained a gallery of Amy Kwon in compromosing and controversial positions and situations. There were audio files of private conversations - she swears they were doctored as much as the videos and distorted narration from the one who put the hit piece together. The information spread throughout the school like a virus, and Amy Kwon was missing for the final exams of junior year. She barely skated through to senior year after the F on the exams tanked her GPA. People assumed she wouldn't be back. This was worse than getting cancelled, this was like when content creators get hit with the twitlongers from people they groomed - only this wasn't a case of grooming so much as it was infidelity, cheating, vulgarity, a whole slew of accusations and seemingly verified proof of Amy Kwon being a truly awful individual. No one knows who put the hit piece together, who pulled the trigger on releasing it, or why. No one really cares; at BHHS sometimes those at the top can only ever fall down. Going into senior year, people assumed Amy Kwon would transfer away.

She did the opposite thing. Going into senior year, Amy Kwon has decided to embrace the image that was painted of her. If they think she's a bad girl? They haven't even SEEN her be bad yet. If her reputation is already trashed, why not sink even lower? And why not drag people caught in her vortex down with her? Amy Kwon is a problem. Left unchecked, she'll be destructive to more than just herself. If the road to hell is paved with good intentions, Amy Kwon's path is the express lane and she's driving over the limit.

► current dilemma

Naturally with someone on such a spiral, Amy's biggest dilemma is knowing when she's gone too far. She's never had to endure the Hester Prynne scenario but unlike Hester she doesn't see herself going on a redemption arc; if people want to 'fix her' they are welcome to try and see how long it takes for them to become broken playthings tossed aside by Amy. Part of her does want to find out who turned her into the 'Fallen Angel', but another part of her doesn't care. She's free. In a way. Sure, she's lost most, if not all, of her friends but if they didn't stand by her then fuck them. Amy is going to have to decide what's more important to her: regaining her reputation or basking in her newfound hedonistic bad bitch self. Or find a way to merge both. Either way, she only has a year...but a lot can happen in a year. And no one will forget Amy Kwon. She won't give them that satisfaction.

► style

If there's a dress code, Amy has violated it. She doesn't walk around school in the buff, that's crazy, but short skirts, tops with vulgar words or phrases, outfits that catch the eye or make one do a double take. But more importantly, she carries herself with an arrogant confidence that allows her to even pull off the frankly outrageous and overly lascivious outfits she wears. It's like she's in a competition to outdo herself - a competition that no one else is participating in. Amy is aware enough to know that just wearing risque outfits everyday will get boring after a while, so she's still often balancing it out by wearing stylish outfits that happen to just be black or darker colors. She pulls it off.

And yes, she wears a choker. Think you can snap it?

She was content to simply support it by being an audience member and hanging out while they did auditions and rehearsals.

► reputation

There are few at BHHS and fewer in the senior class who don't know Himani Chakrabarti. Of course, in a way everyone knows her considering at every pep rally and major home game for the season she can be found inside the pirate mascot uniform where she spreads BHHS spirit and cheer and sometimes even dancing routines. Even normally, Himani Chakrabarti makes her presence known just by the sheer number of clubs she has signed up for and how she seems to always have energy and optimism for a school of all things. Rare is the time when she gets called on in class because Himani is someone that, when answering a question, will talk for minutes until the teacher or someone else interrupts her. Many surely find her annoying, but in the way where she still gets to have friends and people who tolerate her. She's likable, in other words, and if nothing else her energy can be infectious. Perhaps one of the more surprising aspects of Himani's entire being is her performance in gym class. She runs a crisp six minute mile in gym class and likely would be on the cross country team if she didn't have a thousand other commitments and concerns.

Himani Chakrabarti is a ball of energy and school spirit and her can-do and 'never say no' attitude has made some consider her to be...naive, wwhich is a fair assessment. In terms of grades, History and Gym are her best classes but every teacher she's ever had has remarked on how immaculate her handwriting is and how thorough her notes are. She fully expects her yearbook platitude to be "Most Likely to Be A Secretary" but she doesn't know if that's insulting or not. Likely not, as she always runs for student council secretary until people remind her of her dozen other clubs she's technically part of.

Love her or hate her, few can deny that Himani is unapologetically earnest.

► current dilemma

Himani doesn't have the money to go to college but desperately wants to so she can study archeology (did she mention she wants to be an archeologist?) and history. Scholarships are her best chance but she's still worried about the lack of money to the point where she hasn't even applied to college yet. While college is a big dilemma for her, she's also coming to terms with the fact that her family situation is...well if people knew what it was like at her house they would wonder how she was able to be so cheerful and chipper at school; though it does help explain why she enjoys being outdoors hiking, climbing rocks, and camping as much as she does. The two concerns are connected as not getting into college would mean having to spend time in the worst place on the planet.

Ｄｅｔａｉｌｓ

Himani's Twitter handle is @ChakrabarTeaTime. She often posts videos of her putting on the mascot costume and PoV of what it's like running along the stands at a game.
Her Instagram, which has a lot of pictures of her doing outdoor activities as well as 'Tidbit Thursday' where she posts a historical fact, is @HimaniDoesHistory

► style

Himani doesn't really have a defined style. Most of her outfits are of the casual variety without much in the way of namee brands. She does happen to show leg because she likes wearing shorts but considering she runs and hikes and such, being proud of her legs is just a happy byproduct. Most times, though, they just wear nondescript or athleisure. They like accessories, particularly bracelets and wristbands and she almost always wears sneakers.

► ride & everyday items

Himani rides their bike to school or sometimes walks if they feel like it. But more often than not it's a bike ride to and from school. She has a binder in her backpack that contains her notebooks (she goes through many over a year) and dayplanner. She rarely ever leaves home to go to school without her dayplanner.

► occupation

Way too busy with school activities to have a job

► extracurricular activities

Name a club and Himani has probably been in it or tried to be in it. She's technically still in the Glee Club despite being unable to sing. Her main club, other than pep squad by nature of being the mascot, is the Adventure Club which she at least has a passion for in the sense that she loves hiking and outdoors activities. Tried to join band but doesn't play an instrument other than clapping. Mascot and club activities keep her fairly busy.

One time I went camping and I was making s'mores but I burned the chocolate, or I mean it melted, and it got on my hand and I licked it off but some of it spilled on my shirt except I forgot to pack a spare so I had to basically walk around with chocolate on my shirt - it was right by the left boob. I don't know why I'm telling that story it's not funny or anything but I thought it was cute I guess. I dunno! I like going on hikes and stuff because you never know what you're gonna see in nature. Oh! I also love going to museums! One summer I went to the museum like every day and by the end of the month I was more informative than the tour guide. Not that it was hard, I mean the tour guide thought that the Age of Discovery came BEFORE the Classical Antiquity period and it's like uh duh yeah I'm sure Christopher Columbus was doing exploring before the fall of the Roman Empire. The 15th century was BEFORE Ancient Greece, I mean come on now, everyone knows the Antiquity ended around the 5th Century!"

I would like to learn _______ in the next year.

"I kinda want to learn philosophy but just for the sake of information, I don't want to debate philosophy. I'm not Socrates. Oh, I think I'd like to learn how to write a vampire story. Like a good one that makes people go 'Oh, this is spicy but the good kind of spice like in chicken chettinad, not the bad spice that flavorless people put on their food because they don't have flavor. Like...mayo. I don't know, I feel like I'm always learning."

This is how I define success and failure:

"I don't really have a definition because even in failure if you learned something then there's success to be found. Sometimes we lose a game but the team doesn't let it get them down and even when we're losing I'm doing my best to make sure the crowd is still excited and that's success isn't it? I don't think I'm a failure even if my eyebrows are a little too bushy and my teeth are a little big, I think I'm a success because imperfections are a good thing!"

I'm inspired by _______.

"Kathleen Kenyon! She's like one of the most well known archeologists ever. She died without being married which is sad but her contributions to the field are incredible. There's an entire excavation method named after her! I don't want to die unmarried or unloved but if I could contribute half as much to the archeological world as she did...then I think I would be happy even if no one mourned me!"

It was during summer. So...summer camp! But Indiana Jones is not a very good archeologist but he is very good at punching Nazis!"

She's mellowed since then. Somewhat. If you're in Naomi's court, you're treated well. If you're not in her court, she'll likely not care enough about you to give you much notice. If you're opposed to her? Well, may god have mercy on your soul because in the halls of BHHS the only god worth praying to is Naomi. Of course, she wouldn't be an effective queen if she was publicly rude and cruel - all the best royals keep that sort of thing in private chambers for a reason - but what she is is quite manipulative and gifted at oration. Naomi has a reputation of being someone who can cut you down to size while making it seem like she's being complimentary, and you wouldn't even know it until later when the wound opens. Like a samurai who ends a duel and their opponent is smiling right until blood bursts from their chest.

A good portion of her reputation and power comes from her father, Elijah Davis, who was recently cited in Forbes as being, quote, "the most successful African American in the film industry since Tyler Perry". Elijah Davis' net worth was in the range of a billion thanks to him smoothly navigating the cutthroat world of film and media production. Elijah Davis was quoted as saying "MeToo and the ousting of Weinstein was the greatest thing that ever happened to me" as it allowed him to use the power vacuum to his advantage. Naomi is not above using the influence of her father to great effect, such as sweetly telling the numerous aspiring actors and actresses of BHHS that "I could put in a good word with my father...he practically runs Hollywood, you know. A lot of doors can be opened, and I do so hate to have to...shut them.". There's an unspoken law around Naomi that those who are in her good graces get preferential treatment. In her junior year she used said influence to send athletes to the Super Bowl, some theater kids to the Tony's, and students who annoyed her on a six hour bus ride disguised as a field trip to Vegas; instead it was a six hour trip to Death Valley and back.

Naomi maintains a great rapport with the faculty and principal thanks in no small part to her father's monetary contributions to fund raisers as well as Naomi having a habit of hearing good ideas from students and presenting them to the faculty as if they were her own ideas. And if someone protests that their idea was stolen...well..."How did that work out for the Winklevoss twins?" The smart ones know Naomi enough to know not to protest; at least then they might still get invited to the good parties.

Everyone in BHHS knows Naomi. The question is if they know enough to stay off her shit list.

► current dilemma

Every queen at BHHS faces the issue of legacy. They want to leave behind a legacy that future students speak about in addition to finding someone to carry on the crown, so to speak. Naomi realizes her time at the top is running out but she feels as if she hasn't accomplished anything other than proving that nepotism is great if it works for you. She doesn't want to wake up the day after graduation and wonder if she has friends or just sycophants. Despite her reputation, Naomi does want the best for the school which is why she so strongly rallies against those she thinks are 'tarnishing' the reputation. To that end, her major dilemma is how can she make her last year impactful while also ensuring the personal relationships she has are genuine. What does it mean to be queen of BHHS? Heavy is the head that wears the crown. She just hopes she isn't beheded before the end of the year.

► social media handles

Naomi has a Twitter account @NaomiDavis76 and her pinned tweet is a picture she took with Taylor Swift, just so people know who she knows.
Her Instagram is @DavisDoes and is mostly used to showcase her outfits or meals or candids. Typical influencer stuff.
She has a second Insta and Twitter that she swears isn't hers. Both of those accounts are @DiscoGlitter and are related to the Gliter City Roller Palace, a roller rink and roller disco in the area that is a decently popular hangout.

► style

Naomi doesn't set fashion trends but she does keep track of what is in fashion. Appearance matters and anyone who says otherwise is lying and probably wears the same hooded sweatshirt to school every day and the same shirt all weekend. In school, she wears designer clothes from Valentino or YSL or Mincy Coture or even high casual brands purchased from The Mermaid's Closet. Casually on weekends she'll dress down a bit, jeans and sneakers, the kind of thing that reminds people that even the elite can look normal.
Naomi really likes wearing skirts, though. In her words "My legs could start wars, why not remind people?"

► ride & everyday items

Not to show off, but Naomi arrives in a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, the height of luxury sedans. It was a sweet sixteen present and that sweet sixteen party was...next level. She is rarely ever seen without her $4,000 Chanel leather handbag. Her whole life is in that bag.

► occupation

Off the books helps operate Glitter City Roller Palace. She was involved in the rennovation under the guise of 'philantrophy' for college applications. As she is not yet technically allowed to own a business legally, her name is off the ledger. But it is her baby.

► extracurricular activities

While not technically in any clubs, Naomi is a social butterfly and makes appearances at school events and has her fingers and toes and eyes around the building. She wants to be on student council, but is considering letting members of her court handle that.

Friends would describe me as _______.

"Loyal, loving, fun, you could slot in any number of adjectives. Even some negative ones would technically be appropriate. Look, we all have flaws, some of us can just afford to buy concealer. So if some of my friends wish to describe me as...intense or intimidating, that's their right. Am I snobbish? Maybe. But this country was built by those who had enough money to pay people to build things. Elitism founded this country, I'm just following an example that history laid out for me."

In my free time I like to _______.

"How precious that you think a woman of my means and stature has the luxury of free time. Free time is for people whose future include asking if I want fries with that before complaining that the minimum wage is too low. It's called minimum for a reason, dear. Try harder."

I would like to learn _______ in the next year.

"If I learn just one thing in the next year then it will have been a waste. But in the interest of answering...I suppose I would like to learn how to ski. I'd like to visit Aspen."

This is how I define success and failure:

"Failure is what happens when people would rather complain that they can't afford things and demand that those who can bail them out. Success is knowing you can write off a six digit donation to charity on taxes and not even flinch as you sign the check."

I'm inspired by _______.

"Myself."

These songs are the soundtrack to my life:

"Boogie Wonderland by Earth, Wind, and Fire. Too many people think EWF only had September and it is incredibly annoying."
"Miss Broadway by Belle Epoque"
"I Love You More by George Duke. It takes talent to have an iconic opening eleven seconds and then never using it anywhere else in the song."
"Dazz by Brick"
"Supersonic by J.J. Fad"
"White Lines (Don't Do It) by Grandmaster Mellie Mel"
"South Bronx by Boogie Down Productions"
"Planet Rock by Afrika Bambaataa & The Soulsonic Force"
"I'll Take Your Man by Salt n Pepa"
"Did you know a lot of people think white people did this song? They wish."
"While I prefer Anne's Song, this song basically marked the beginning of a decade defined by mediocrity so I have to respect it."

My fondest memory as a child was _______.

"The night I saw my dad crying in the kitchen shortly after my mom...well, he had always been so adamant that men had to suffer in silence so seeing him finally cry - albeit only because he believed absolutely no one would ever see him - was strangely sobering. It didn't last long, I think he heard me looking from a doorway, but after he wiped his tears and blew his nose, we had ice cream in a waffle bowl. I had rainbow colored sprinkles on top of my chocolate chip, he just had plain chocolate - low fat because he was watching his figure. We didn't talk but we had a conversation anyway. I thought I'd ask for a hug after but I didn't want to be a bother, he was going through a lot. The next day he bought me an entire new wardrobe and that was the fondest memory, all those new clothes."

If I could tell my younger self something, I would say:

"Don't waste your time on those who can't be grateful for all you give to them. If you give one poor person money, they all expect money. The same can be said of favors."

The things that make me smile are _______.

"Retail therapy. My collection of 8-tracks and cassettes and getting new additions to said collection. When my father isn't too busy to have dinner with me. Or breakfast. Glitter City."

► reputation

When Dani first got to BHHS, the faculty seemed to give her more of a reputation than she did; of course only the faculty and her family knew about her parents and her unfortunate situation so it was understandable. But it quickly became apparent that Dani was more than able to garner a reputation on her own. As one of the infamous Jones sisters, DJ might come off as normal in comparison to, say, JJ, but that's only because Dani manages to keep her...eccentricities contained to platforms where she can express them. To people who don't know DJ (or who don't live with her) she comes off as...fairly normal, if a bit on the overly sarcastic side, but over the years DJ has been letting her true self shine through. Now, after a rather impressive prank that landed her detention for the rest of her junior year (fortunately, only a couple months at that point), people are starting to finally realize that other than her strange fascination with movies and making the morning show into something cinematic, DJ is kind of a prankster. It was only a matter of time before DJ proved that just because she was adopted in, under terrible circumstances, that she's still a Jones Sister through and through.

And there's no better current student in BHHS to come to if you need something filmed. So says DJ, anyway.

► current dilemma

DJ will be 18 soon and while she doesn't expect to be removed from the care of the foster system - especially because she was adopted within her own family - but she feels like she owes it to her stepmom and aunt to give back in some capacity. But more immediately she's worried that the mental health issues that destroyed her biological parents is hereditary and if so what that means for her. She doesn't want to end up like her mom but that worry lingers at the back of her mind. Is that why she finds solace in pranking? Not really, that's just good humor. DJ is in a rare position where she knows what she wants to do in life but is worried that her own potential hereditary hangups might get in the way.

Her Twitter and Instagram both have the handle @DaniDirects. But you can find her moreso on TikTok at DaNiidleDrop where she instigates fights, arguments, and discussion by debating film tropes and needle drops in movies inbetween using it as a reel to show her directing and editing skills.

► style

The most important part of Dani's outfit is that she always, always wears a heeled ankle boot to the point where she'll wear them even if she's in formal clothing. She has a fascination with plad and denim, but never at the same time because that's just...a massive faux pas. Fashion was never really her interest, but in addition to her ankle boots her preferred style is "anything sleeveless". She thinks her arms are her best feature. She might have a point.

► ride & everyday items

If she could get away with carrying a professional film camera around, she would, but as it stands she instead brings a handheld Lumix with her. Just in case. She has a yellow vespa that she drives to and from school. Why a yellow vespa? Because ride on shooting star.

► occupation

Freelance editing and filming of things.

► extracurricular activities

Dani has been part of the A/V crew since freshman year. She works on The Morning Show, the BHHS morning announcements program, as both an on air and behind the scenes talent. Students know when Dani is behind the camera because it actually moves and uses different techniques other than the flat news-desk style presentation that it normally has. Some people find her techniques annoying, others appreciate the attempt to jazz it up. When on-air she tends to play the sarcastic co-host. Otherwise she can be found after school in a diner eating hashbrowns and bacon cheeseburgers with a fried egg and a vanilla coke. No ice.

It was I think the last time I remember seeing my mom and dad happy at the same time, but then it was hard for my dad to be happy after what happened. We ate the ice cream cake and watched The Sandlot. That was my dad's favorite movie when he was my age. I liked it. It was strawberry. The ice cream cake. I remember because it was the most pink thing I'd ever seen and tasted. My name was spelled wrong on the cake. It said Daniel. Dani has always been easier. But sometimes at Starbucks they'll put 'Danny With An I' on the cup and it stopped being funny years ago. Anyway...what was the question? Oh right. Ice cream cake. Mom still alive. Happy memories."

(FC: Yu Ji-min (Karina); Dialogue: DC143C)

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Ｉｎｔｒｏ

► reputation

There was a time when Amy Kwon's name was spoken of the way musicians sing about their unrequited loves. She was popular without being part of the black hole that is Naomi's regime; she went to parties, had to turn down offers to go to dances and on dates just because of the sheer amount of them, and she got decent grades to boot. It was almost sickening how perfect Amy Kwon seemed to be; even without being in the queen bee's court, Amy Kwon was in the upper echelon simply by virtue of being popular, attractive, and above all kind. She was basically a precious princess.

That Amy Kwon doesn't exist anymore.

Near the end of junior year, Amy Kwon lost the thing most important to a popular student: their reputation. It started with a text. A simple link to a website. The website contained a gallery of Amy Kwon in compromosing and controversial positions and situations. There were audio files of private conversations - she swears they were doctored as much as the videos and distorted narration from the one who put the hit piece together. The information spread throughout the school like a virus, and Amy Kwon was missing for the final exams of junior year. She barely skated through to senior year after the F on the exams tanked her GPA. People assumed she wouldn't be back. This was worse than getting cancelled, this was like when content creators get hit with the twitlongers from people they groomed - only this wasn't a case of grooming so much as it was infidelity, cheating, vulgarity, a whole slew of accusations and seemingly verified proof of Amy Kwon being a truly awful individual. No one knows who put the hit piece together, who pulled the trigger on releasing it, or why. No one really cares; at BHHS sometimes those at the top can only ever fall down. Going into senior year, people assumed Amy Kwon would transfer away.

She did the opposite thing. Going into senior year, Amy Kwon has decided to embrace the image that was painted of her. If they think she's a bad girl? They haven't even SEEN her be bad yet. If her reputation is already trashed, why not sink even lower? And why not drag people caught in her vortex down with her? Amy Kwon is a problem. Left unchecked, she'll be destructive to more than just herself. If the road to hell is paved with good intentions, Amy Kwon's path is the express lane and she's driving over the limit.

► current dilemma

Naturally with someone on such a spiral, Amy's biggest dilemma is knowing when she's gone too far. She's never had to endure the Hester Prynne scenario but unlike Hester she doesn't see herself going on a redemption arc; if people want to 'fix her' they are welcome to try and see how long it takes for them to become broken playthings tossed aside by Amy. Part of her does want to find out who turned her into the 'Fallen Angel', but another part of her doesn't care. She's free. In a way. Sure, she's lost most, if not all, of her friends but if they didn't stand by her then fuck them. Amy is going to have to decide what's more important to her: regaining her reputation or basking in her newfound hedonistic bad bitch self. Or find a way to merge both. Either way, she only has a year...but a lot can happen in a year. And no one will forget Amy Kwon. She won't give them that satisfaction.

► style

If there's a dress code, Amy has violated it. She doesn't walk around school in the buff, that's crazy, but short skirts, tops with vulgar words or phrases, outfits that catch the eye or make one do a double take. But more importantly, she carries herself with an arrogant confidence that allows her to even pull off the frankly outrageous and overly lascivious outfits she wears. It's like she's in a competition to outdo herself - a competition that no one else is participating in. Amy is aware enough to know that just wearing risque outfits everyday will get boring after a while, so she's still often balancing it out by wearing stylish outfits that happen to just be black or darker colors. She pulls it off.

And yes, she wears a choker. Think you can snap it?

► reputation

There are few at BHHS and fewer in the senior class who don't know Himani Chakrabarti. Of course, in a way everyone knows her considering at every pep rally and major home game for the season she can be found inside the pirate mascot uniform where she spreads BHHS spirit and cheer and sometimes even dancing routines. Even normally, Himani Chakrabarti makes her presence known just by the sheer number of clubs she has signed up for and how she seems to always have energy and optimism for a school of all things. Rare is the time when she gets called on in class because Himani is someone that, when answering a question, will talk for minutes until the teacher or someone else interrupts her. Many surely find her annoying, but in the way where she still gets to have friends and people who tolerate her. She's likable, in other words, and if nothing else her energy can be infectious. Perhaps one of the more surprising aspects of Himani's entire being is her performance in gym class. She runs a crisp six minute mile in gym class and likely would be on the cross country team if she didn't have a thousand other commitments and concerns.

Himani Chakrabarti is a ball of energy and school spirit and her can-do and 'never say no' attitude has made some consider her to be...naive, wwhich is a fair assessment. In terms of grades, History and Gym are her best classes but every teacher she's ever had has remarked on how immaculate her handwriting is and how thorough her notes are. She fully expects her yearbook platitude to be "Most Likely to Be A Secretary" but she doesn't know if that's insulting or not. Likely not, as she always runs for student council secretary until people remind her of her dozen other clubs she's technically part of.

Love her or hate her, few can deny that Himani is unapologetically earnest.

► current dilemma

Himani doesn't have the money to go to college but desperately wants to so she can study archeology (did she mention she wants to be an archeologist?) and history. Scholarships are her best chance but she's still worried about the lack of money to the point where she hasn't even applied to college yet. While college is a big dilemma for her, she's also coming to terms with the fact that her family situation is...well if people knew what it was like at her house they would wonder how she was able to be so cheerful and chipper at school; though it does help explain why she enjoys being outdoors hiking, climbing rocks, and camping as much as she does. The two concerns are connected as not getting into college would mean having to spend time in the worst place on the planet.

Himani's Twitter handle is @ChakrabarTeaTime. She often posts videos of her putting on the mascot costume and PoV of what it's like running along the stands at a game.
Her Instagram, which has a lot of pictures of her doing outdoor activities as well as 'Tidbit Thursday' where she posts a historical fact, is @HimaniDoesHistory

► style

Himani doesn't really have a defined style. Most of her outfits are of the casual variety without much in the way of namee brands. She does happen to show leg because she likes wearing shorts but considering she runs and hikes and such, being proud of her legs is just a happy byproduct. Most times, though, they just wear nondescript or athleisure. They like accessories, particularly bracelets and wristbands and she almost always wears sneakers.

► ride & everyday items

Himani rides their bike to school or sometimes walks if they feel like it. But more often than not it's a bike ride to and from school. She has a binder in her backpack that contains her notebooks (she goes through many over a year) and dayplanner. She rarely ever leaves home to go to school without her dayplanner.

► occupation

Way too busy with school activities to have a job

► extracurricular activities

Name a club and Himani has probably been in it or tried to be in it. She's technically still in the Glee Club despite being unable to sing. Her main club, other than pep squad by nature of being the mascot, is the Adventure Club which she at least has a passion for in the sense that she loves hiking and outdoors activities. Tried to join band but doesn't play an instrument other than clapping. Mascot and club activities keep her fairly busy.

"I don't really have a definition because even in failure if you learned something then there's success to be found. Sometimes we lose a game but the team doesn't let it get them down and even when we're losing I'm doing my best to make sure the crowd is still excited and that's success isn't it? I don't think I'm a failure even if my eyebrows are a little too bushy and my teeth are a little big, I think I'm a success because imperfections are a good thing!"

I'm inspired by _______.

"Kathleen Kenyon! She's like one of the most well known archeologists ever. She died without being married which is sad but her contributions to the field are incredible. There's an entire excavation method named after her! I don't want to die unmarried or unloved but if I could contribute half as much to the archeological world as she did...then I think I would be happy even if no one mourned me!"

These songs are the soundtrack to my life:

"La Maluka by Blaqnick & Masterblaq. If this doesn't make you want to dance then you must not be listening to it! Or you're deaf in which case I'm sorry for assuming."
"Et Cetera by Steam Down"
"Baba Yetu by Christopher Tin"
"Jeena Jeena by Atif Aslam"
"The Whistling Man by BlaqNick & MasterBlaq"
"Kamera by Wilco"
"Feel the Lightning by Dan Deacon"
"I Have the Moon by Magnetic Fields"
"Save It For A Rainy Day by The Jayhawks"
"Heart of Gold by Neil Young. It's old but it's my favorite old song. I think I just really like harmonicas or like songs that I can imagine in my head as I see a sunrise after a good hike!"

My fondest memory as a child was _______.

"Uh...seeing Raiders of the Lost Ark at summer camp. Well it wasnt summer camp, I just called it that. It was at a drive in and I was camping in the park nearby and managed to see the movie. It was during summer. So...summer camp! But Indiana Jones is not a very good archeologist but he is very good at punching Nazis!"

If I could tell my younger self something, I would say:

"It's okay to be sad every now and then. Have a cry, it'll be okay. Sometimes it's necessary."

The things that make me smile are _______.

"Getting scraped knees. Running. Hearing the cheer of the crowd and knowing I helped in any way. History."

My whole life story in one sentence:

"Himani Chakrabarti made life fun for everyone she met. Wait...that's kind of like a eulogy isn't it? I don't want it to sound like I'm dead. Let me try again..... Himani Chakrabarti never got married to a vampire but her life didn't suck anyway! No...still too much like a eulogy. Hmm...My life story is constantly being updated, like any good piece of history. Yeah...yeah that sounds good. By the way, this questionare needs more spaces to write answers, I had to use extra sheets!"

Sara Delgado

18 • Female • Bisexual? • She/Her • Never Been Kissed, let alone on a date

(FC: Roxanne Perez; Dialogue: 1B9BD6)

Ｉｎｔｒｏ

► reputation

To even have a reputation at BHHS would require more than the janitor knowing your name. Sara Delgado might as well be a ghost. A non-entity. Sure, she sets the grading curve in her classes, but if you ask any of her classmates to point her out they would collectively ask who the hell Sara Delgado even is. Though she has been tutoring since sophomore year, the students she tutors have never so much as thanked her or acknowledged her role in helping them pass tests. But it's fine. She doesn't do it for the thanks. Her family isn't notable, other than her cousins and uncle being in jail and her father currently working in Mexico while her mother works at a hotel. She doesn't come from means, but her abuelita invited her and her mother to live with her as she lived off the residuals from her time as a baker on Mexican broadcasting. But of course, no one really knows that about Sara or her family because no one knows Sara. She eats her lunch in the janitor's closet because the bathroom would make her lose her appetite.

► current dilemma

Sara's big struggle was ended when she got her acceptance letter to college, Pomona College, which was a milestone as no one in her family had gone to college, let alone one of the top ranked undergrad schools in the country. So her current dilemma is...how is she going to be remembered? People say high school is the best four years of ones life but she hasn't had anything memorable. No friends, no dates, never been to a dance, a sporting event, a party, nothing. Can she make up for lost time in a single school year? Time will tell, but time is rapidly running out. If she's going to be remembered, she has to find a way to ensure that no one ever forgets Sara Delgado.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Ｄｅｔａｉｌｓ

► social media handles

Sara has two social media accounts. Her Twitter account, which has 50 followers - all of which are bots - is @DelgadoLegado. She sometimes responds to the bots who respond to her tweets because no one else does.
She has an Instagram but it's mostly pictures of her abuelita's baked goods. That account is @SaraDelicious

► style

Sara's style is...muted. She doesn't wear designer clothes and most of what she does wear are hand me downs from her cousins. She wears a lot of what could be described as...clothing. Flannel jacket, nondescript blouses or long t-shirts on laundry day, dress skirts. Some days she'll wear jeans but she's noticed that her clothes are starting to be a lot tighter on her, which is only compounding her massive amount of insecurities and anxieties. She's in need of a makeover, but she'd need to know where to even start.

► ride & everyday items

She takes public transportation and her own feet to get to school. Sara is never without her yellow backpack which is adorned with pins and buttons of adorable, cute, cheesy food related puns, like "Let's Avo-cuddle" or "That's my jam!" She has dozens of these. Dozens. And she might be changing them out weekly, no one really knows.

► occupation

Worked at the library over summer. It was a good job.

► extracurricular activities

She tutors at the school library during free periods and after school. Never been thanked but has helped many students pass tests, including athletes who needed a certain GPA to even be eligible.

Ｑｕｅｓｔｉｏｎｎａｉｒｅ

Friends would describe me as _______.

"I...don't have friends. Unless you count the janitor who lets me eat lunch in his closet. I think he'd describe me as...that girl. Yeah...yeah that's about right. Uhm...next question?"

In my free time I like to _______.

"Study. Read. Help my abuelita make cakes and cookies and pies. Mostly study. Did you know a group of parrots is called a pandemonium? I'm full of little tidbits and knowledge facts like that but most people..uhm...don't find it as...uh...interesting as I do...uhm....n...next question."

I would like to learn _______ in the next year.

"How to make a friend. Oh sorry, does this have Kleenex? Did you know Kleenex came from products used in gas mask filters in World War 1 which were then repurposed to Kotex feminine sanitary pads? But consumers were modest so didn't like to buy what were effectively tampons so they were again repurposed into make up removal face cloths and the rest is history? Sorry...I'm good now."

This is how I define success and failure:

"The only measure of success and failure I know is what grade I get on tests. Getting good grades and into a good school is the only way I'll be able to not end up like most of my family. But it's not their fault. They're not bad people, they just...immigration is a complicated issue in this country."

I'm inspired by _______.

"Ellen Ochoa, the first Hispanic woman to go to space and first Hispanic director of Johnson Space Center. I don't want to be an astronaut but it's still inspiring that someone like her can open doors for the next Hispanic woman who DOES want to go to space. I hope one day someone is inspired by me...even if they'll just be inspired to not do what I do..."

These songs are the soundtrack to my life:

"Jay Electronica's verse on Control is poetic."
"Never Meant by American Football. When I was first told about math rock I thought it was music about math. It kinda is. But it kinda isn't. But this is the first song on my study playlist and it's why I enjoy songs with unique time signatures."
"Spring Rain by Elephant Gym. I said I liked songs with unique time signatures and I do. It's not all I like, but songs like this help me focus. Like...to get in the zone, you know?"
"Caravan by Duke Ellington. I could put a lot of jazz here, but I'll always go back to this recording."
"La célula que explota by Caifanes. My uncle, before going away, made sure he let me know that it wasn't just the Americans and the British that could make rock music. This was one of his favorite songs. I can see why."
"Eres by Café Tacvba. Simplemente una canción perfecta."
"Face to Face by Daft Punk. The sheer number of samples used to make this song is staggering. And I think that's amazing, that people so talented could take things from other songs and make this incredible production."
"Alphabet Aerobics by Blackalicious. I once tried to test myself to learn the whole song. I got to the Rs."
"Trains by Porcupine Tree. I don't have much to say, but this song makes me feel like I'm having memories of a life I never lived. One where I had summers with friends."
"Do It, Try It by M83. I'm kinda thinking of adopting the title of this song as my mantra going forward. It couldn't hurt, right?"

My fondest memory as a child was _______.

"Baking cookies with my abuelita for a family wedding. She booped my nose with powedered sugar and didn't tell me so when I went to play with the other kids at the wedding they laughed at my nose, it was so funny! I still have the picture from the wedding and you can see my sugar nose! I think that's why I love sweets so much."

If I could tell my younger self something, I would say:

"Life is what you bake it!"

The things that make me smile are _______.

"My abuelita and her sweets. Getting an A on a test. Pop quizzes. Oatmeal creme pies. Food puns. Myself, because no one else will."

My whole life story in one sentence:

"Once upon a time there was a girl named Sara Delgado who tried her very best but all she had to show for it was a life of smiling to hide the loneliness and regret."

Her abuelita (FC: Fernanda Montenegro) is her favorite person on the planet. A lover of baked goods and an old, retired starlet, Sara's abuelita supports Sara in everything and provides many, many sweet snacks and treats that explains why Sara might one day be compared to a bowl of oatmeal.

Everly Rigby

_{EVERLY REAGAN RIGBY}

18 • Female • "Boys are for hanging out with; girls are for banging out with" • She/Her • Single

(FC: Brianna Coda/Cora Jade; Dialogue: E754CA)

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Ｉｎｔｒｏ

► reputation

Depending on who you ask, Everly is either really fuckin' cool or the biggest disappointment since the Obama administration; take a guess as to which camp Everly likes to associate with. Most everyone at BHHS knows that Everly's father, Richard Rigby is a local politician with goals of higher office (in his dayjob he is an attorney) while her mother, Megan Rigby is an on-screen reporter for a morning news broadcast. But Everly doesn't exactly take after either of them; for one thing she's not a Republican ghoul like her dad or a trophy like her mom (though Everly considers herself quite a fuckin' catch). For another, Everly is known for being a bit of a wild child. Cutting class, doing sick kickflips in the parking lot despite being told not to, more detention appearances than attendance, and always showing up at parties even if she wasn't invited.

Everly doesn't give a fuck but she's someone that doesn't give a fuck without actually trying to look like she doesn't give a fuck. The people that think she's cool are her kinda people; they're all cool.

► current dilemma

Everly doesn't show it, but she is worried that her lack of attendance and low grades will prevent her from graduating, which wouldn't be cool and kinda humiliating. She barely skated by to senior year, with low Cs and high Ds for the most part which is already embarassing enough. She's got a lot to figure out this year, including if she'll be a high school drop out and how she'll even have a roof over her head if her parents find out and kick her out.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Ｄｅｔａｉｌｓ

► social media handles

Everly is very consistent and uses the same handle on all her social media. Her Twitter, Instagram, Discord, Steam, and her TiKTok (which has almost 10k followers!) all go by 'RigbyGoesDown'.

► style

Everly doesn't wear designer clothes, the only brands she cares about are the ones who make her skate deck. And wheels. When it comes to clothes, rare is the time when Everly's black hair isn't adorned with a hat, be it a baseball cap or her rotating closet of beanie caps. Jeans, crop tops, long sleeve shirts with checkerboard patterns, Everly's entire style looks like it fell out of a skateboarding magazine from, like, the early to mid 2000s. She has two tattoos, one on each arm, which she got with a fake I.D. two years ago. She has a lip piercing on the lower right side. And for some reason she really likes wearing short shirts so her stomach is showing. But, really, can you blame her?

► ride & everyday items

If she's not bumming rides from people, Everly arrives in style: on her skateboard, often signaling her arrival by grinding on a railing or the back of a bench. She stopped doing the bench as often. Too many bails. Her fans on TikTok love it though.

► occupation

Recently fired from the 7-11 for letting her friends drink all the Gatorade.

► extracurricular activities

Anything she can do to not go home right away. Often includes hanging out with her friends, skating, getting high, or trying to get a girlfriend without seeming too desperate or creepy. What? She's not cool 100 percent of the time!

Friends would describe me as _______.

"Probably somethin' funny dumb like 'gnarly' or whatever. I dunno. My friends call me dumbass and shit all the time. They'd probably describe me physically.

In my free time I like to _______.

"Do rails and lines. What were you thinking, Tony Montana? No but for real I do get high and bust ass trying to do darkslide grinds. Uh...I just kinda...vibe?"

"How to do a Christ Air without busting ass and getting a gash on my fuckin leg."

This is how I define success and failure:

"Success is when you land a trick and people clap and I get to look cool in front of S...omeone and they also think I'm cool. Failure is when I wake up and realize even in my dreams I don't get a happy ending."

I'm inspired by _______.

"Johnny Knoxville."

These songs are the soundtrack to my life:

"How many can I put? Get a pen, remember these."
"Bendover by A Giant Dog. Most played song on my Spotify. Can't watch the video without wishing Sabrina Ellis was doing those moves in my lap."
"Call Your Bluff by Catbite. Nothing better to listen to when you're getting mozzarella sticks with the dudes and they give you an extra one."
"Yeah yeah, I know, but my mom liked this song and I dunno...it kinda reminds me of the before times. When, like, we got along. Still cant understand what the fuck Patrick Stump is saying."
"93 'Til Infinity by Souls of Mischief. I dare you to find a song that better fits the defintion of 'a vibe'. I also dare you to listen to this and not bob your head. Anytime I'm getting high and have the aux? We're playin this when it hits."
"Mad This Summer by August is Falling. Can't believe this band never got the attention it deserved but they're basically the greatest pop punk band to ever do it."
"Holiday by Weezer. This band fuckin' sucks but like this song is pretty good to blast when goin' on a drive."
"Like Eating Glass by Bloc Party. This was the first time I, like, really heard drums in a song. I didnt know why at the time but when I heard this song the first time I wanted to be a fuckin drummer. But like just listen to the drums, man! They're so fuckin cool. I should be a drummer."
"96 Quite Bitter Beings by CKY. I still remember when I was at my uncle's house and loaded up Tony Hawk 3, some retro game pretty good I guess, and this song played and it was like hearing the Beatles except not dogwater."
"Smoko by The Chats. I wish Australia were real."
"Guided by Angels by Amyl and the Sniffers. I think I'd look cool in mullet, man."
"Your Sick Blooms by The Hunches. I fuck with music that kinda sounds like people in a garage just seeing what works."
"When I was like 12 years old I thought the line about not drowning demons cuz they can swim was the deepest shit. Meme aside this song still fucks, you know it does."
"Wylin by Kevin Gates. I had to ask my dad what Luca Brasi meant. This song is better than that three hour boring shit called The Godfather."
"Today's Your Day by Fatlip. Honestly, this album changed my life. I, too, am a lonely punk. Well not lonely. I have friends. But...look it's just a good album and this song fucks."
"Fuck you, this song rules. Don't believe me? Try and listen to the chorus without belting it out. My go-to karaoke song and I don't give a fuck who hates it."

My fondest memory as a child was _______.

"When my dad, before I realized he was the worst person on earth, took me to a ranch and I got to ride a horse. I was seven. I still have the cowboy hat."

If I could tell my younger self something, I would say:

"They're lying to you about the importance of math."
