@Dirty Pretty Lies & @Hushed Whispers, the CS for the second (and much cooler, lol) Franklin twin :D

Brynn Franklin

Name: Brynn Franklin

Nicknames: Whatever ridiculous name her family comes up with.

Age: 17

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Hetero

In Depth Appearance: Standing at roughly five-foot-six-inches, Brynn (and her twin sister) were both shorter than the average females of their extended family. With a slim frame, beautifully defined facial features, and a bit of thickness in all the right (or wrong, depending on who you ask) places, Brynn still found herself falling into self-consciousness and barely enjoyed her own reflection. As of late, she keeps her hair buzzed or cropped, and proudly wears her relatively new “black rose” tattoo on the right side of her neck.

Habits//Quirks//Oddities: Usually she finds herself humming or singing to music that's only playing in her head, especially when nervous or anxious. Occasionally talks to herself, and maybe even answers her own questions out loud. She also comes off as a bit of a germaphobe, washing or sanitizing her hands quite often throughout the day. And a useful, but still rather unusual, is being able to nap just about anywhere, almost like a cat.

Hobbies: Brynn enjoys drawing and painting more than just about anything else. Running and swimming comes in a close second.

Likes: sushi, drawing, painting, running, watching Netflix, swimming, frappuccinos, and occasionally smoking Marijuana

Dislikes: Stuck-up attitudes, cold weather, crowds, waiting, body odor, being touched, airplanes, hypocrites,

Personality Traits: Borderline Extrovert | Imaginative | Impatient | Self Deprecating | Anxious | Impulsive | Picky | Perfectionist (especially with her artwork)

Personality: To say that Brynn speaks her mind would be an understatement, because when the girl takes issue with something (which seems to be quite often) her opinions are given whether anyone wants it or not. Other times, however, she can be quite calm and reserved, delving into her artwork or ignoring everyone around her with headphones and good beats. Really depends on the day or perhaps phases of the moon. Who knows? Even though the relationship with her family is rather strained, she still loves them but doesn't always want to show it in any obvious way. Her sister, Ella, is probably one of the only people in the world that understands her random though patterns, and angsty attitude toward life, but she still gets on her nerves regardless.

History:
“Seventeen and clearly you have life figured out!…”

Brynn was tired of hearing that line quoted by her parents on nearly a daily basis, sometimes indirectly aimed towards her sister Ella, but always meant for her twin who couldn’t have been more different on many levels. But what the hell was wrong with being “different”? Just because you were born into wealth, or your parental units were some kind of significance to society, did that mean you had to be just like them and all their disgusting friends? Friends. That word is about as laughable as it’s meaning, whatever that was. When you had money, “friends” could easily be bought, which Brynn was pretty sure had been the secret to her parents success in life, as was most likely the same for the rest of the adults on Rosefell island.

But it didn’t always seem like this…

Growing up Franklin was far less stressful and demanding as a kid, and both Brynn and her identical twin sister were inseparable, one could even say, the best of friends if there ever could have been such a thing. There were no secrets between them, and whether at home or in school, they had each other’s back no matter what challenges they faced head on. And the practical jokes and pranks, oh man, legendary if the Franklin kids could boast about anything. Each Summer they couldn’t wait to see the other kids on Rosefell island, where the memories made were something to look back at and smile about. Mom and Dad were great parents, and while they worked their asses off to provide all the creature comforts and then some, it seemed their attention slowly but surely fell onto Ella, their “golden child”, as her twin sarcastically referred to her. Aside from their personalities, likes and dislikes, and a myriad of other aspects veering in different directions, Brynn just couldn’t figure out why Lewis and Lana saw her sister in a more positive light.

Of course, it might have had something to do with a natural fit into deviant behavior that drove the Franklin parents bad shit crazy just about every day, or perhaps the slipping of grades, sneaking out of classes to go hang out somewhere else, backing dad’s car into a fire hydrant, or a laundry list of shenanigans that has essentially railroaded future chances of Brynn finding positive favor in her parents eyes. Mid-teen years fast approached, and the bond that once kept both sisters inseparable was quickly deteriorating, and the girls found themselves more isolated from one another. As it usually was, boyfriends came and went, and while Brynn wasn’t all that interested in most of the guys that came a long, she made it a point to scare away those who actually liked her twin, and even on a few occasions, bickered over a guy who they both happened to like. But in the end, Brynn just wasn’t the “boy crazy” type and quite caring about relationships of the heart. Her love of art consumed most of her time, as she kept to her sketching and painting, or visited art galleries from time to time hoping to one day have her figurative work displayed for people to enjoy. On the island, her friendships with the other kids wavered, as even their lives have changed from when everyone was younger, but she still hangs with a few of the ones she can tolerate. It was only a summer after all...

Brynn loved her parents and sibling, but as time passed, she just felt less like part of the family, and kept to herself or spent time with the locals of the island, some she already knew, or maybe even strangers-turned-friends. She knew she was different from her sister, and each time she looked at Ella, she became angry because they were essentially identical, so Brynn took the only logical and extreme course of action: she shaved her head and got a tattoo. Needless to say, this sent Lewis and Lana over the edge as punishments came and went, each taking away some privilege that otherwise had little effect on the girl. Yep, the youngest born Franklin twin wanted to be a rebel, and she was certainly treated as such.

Ella Franklin

Name

Ella Josephine Franklin
_{└ El
└ Ellie}

Age

Seventeen

Gender

Female

Sexuality

Closeted Bisexual

In Depth Appearance

At first glance, Ella appears to be cold and calculating, her expression always one that leads people to believe this. Her strong case of "resting bitch face" gives her a somewhat unfriendly air, though she doesn't mind that it puts people off. She is a curvy, light-skinned black woman, standing at five feet, seven inches tall and weighing in at a little over one hundred fifty pounds. Brown, thick locks of hair cascade down her back and curls around her youthful face. You'll usually see her with her hair braided, however, as it is easier to manage. She has a prominent nose and full lips that always look poised to speak something important. But her most compelling feature is her piercing brown eyes that can change from affection to aversion without notice.

Ella carries herself elegantly with good posture, long confident strides, and her head held high. Due to this and her love of high heels, she often looks taller than she really is. Speckling her nose are freckles that are slightly darker than her skin, though she'll usually cover these freckles, as well as any other blemishes, with a thin layer of concealer and foundation. When smiling, you can see that she has two rows of perfectly white teeth, a slight overbite present. Ella often times finds herself applying a full face of makeup before her day begins. The young woman has her belly button pierced, as well as her ear lobes. She does not have any tattoos yet, though she hopes to get a couple within the next few years.

When it comes to his fashion sense, Ella surprisingly likes to keep it simple. When out and about, you'll usually see her wearing pants or jeans, a plain T-shirt, and a pair of sneakers or heels. When it's cold, she'll switch the T-shirt out for a solid colored sweater or wear a black, leather jacket over top of it. As far as jewelry goes, however, Ella is always iced out. With her flashy necklaces, rings, and bracelets, she can make the most basic and minimalist outfits look like they belong in a fashion editorial.

Personality

Friendly ∙ Stubborn ∙ Energetic ∙ Perfectionist ∙ Outspoken ∙ Sneaky ∙ Independent

Despite her unfriendly appearance, Ella Franklin is actually a genuinely friendly young woman. On the surface, she proves to be a very energetic and lively person. When she's with her friends, she is rarely seen without a goofy grin on her face. She can be described as the bright ray of sunshine in a group, always trying her best to make others happy whether it be by giving them authentic compliments or cracking jokes. Many of her friends also describe her as adventurous and spontaneous; she's usually the one trying to get people to step out of their comfort zones and try something new. Her intelligence is mostly based on her determination to do well. All through grade school, Ella studied her ass off in order to make it where she is now. A textbook extrovert, Ella loves to chat with people (unless she's having a bad day, in which case she still loves to talk, but she leans towards negativity and passive-aggression) and does not shy away from talking to strangers, but tends to turn a few people off with her tendency to express her thoughts unconsciously and without restraint.

There is a certain confidence in the way that Ella walks and talks; she has a way of commanding attention the moment she steps foot into a room and making strong first impressions. She has never been one to shy away from any platform or spotlight, and will always speak her mind without hesitation or timidity. This can easily be seen when she's performing her poems at local poetry slams or speaking out on social and political issues. Ella has grown to be a very self-reliant and independent young woman. She knows how to deal with things on her own, and rarely calls on the help of her family members or peers.

In the eyes of her parents, Ella is simply a well-behaved, sweet, and intelligent young woman with a whole lot of potential to do good. What they sometimes fail to see, however, are a great deal of her flaws. Although Ella is very involved in clubs, sports, and other extra curricular activities, she isn't truly interested in any of them. In fact, Ella isn't interested in much of anything other than her writing. The young woman has no idea who she is, who she wants to be, or what career path she wants to pursue when the "grows up," and doesn't have much time left to figure it out. She is also very stubborn, much like her mother and sister, a perfectionist who has high standards for herself, and sneaky.

History

"Never let anyone tell you that you can't..."

Lewis and Lana Franklin have been telling their identical twin daughters this since the day they were first introduced into the world. It was a saying that each girl carried differently with them throughout their seventeen years of living, Ella especially. It was hard to describe: that deep feeling in the pit of Ella's stomach, the desire and urge to strive for greatness and nothing less. It was this desire that propelled Ella up to the place at which she sat today. Not only was she captain of her basketball team, voted "most spirited" on her cheerleading squad, top fifty in her class, BETA club vice president, and a National Honors Society member, but she also rarely caused any trouble for her parents. Ella was every stressed and hard-working parent's wet dream.

Growing up in the Franklin household was initially a breeze for the Franklin sisters. Their parents were loving and supportive, and worked harder than ever to provide for their kids, the two identical twins got along better than they ever had, and life was simply easy. Brynn and Ella were practically inseparable as children; they always looked after each other, always had each others back, and they'd even play legendary pranks and practical jokes on nearly everyone they crossed paths with. They especially loved going to Rosefell Island together each Summer to meet up with all of the other kids; the memories they made there were nothing short of spectacular. As the twins grew older, however, it became apparent that their parents favored their elder twin over the other. If you would have told Ella this a few years ago, she would have simply denied it and brushed it off. Now, she can't help but believe that it was because of the vast differences between she and her sister.

Brynn was a rebel. For as long as Ella can remember, her younger sister has been causing more trouble and destruction than her parents probably wanted to deal with. Ella, on the other hand, was more tame and mature; while her sister was busy letting her grades slip and sneaking out of classes, Ella was keeping her head in her books, making new friends, joining sports teams and clubs, and hanging on to every word her professors spoke and keeping extremely detailed notes. Ella wasn't surprised in the slightest when she and her twin sister began to slowly drift apart; they were two complete opposites, after all. But she was surprised when the two girls soon found themselves bickering nearly every second they were together. They'd even started arguing over boys at one point in their lives; Ella was upset when she realized that she and Brynn had a crush on the same guy, and heartbroken when she considered the possibility that the young man liked her sister better than he did her. In the end, although she'll occasionally go out with a boy (or girl, unbeknownst to her parents), Ella ended up swearing off dating completely so that she could focus more on her school work and extra curricular activities.

Now, Ella and her sister have drifted further apart than they've ever been; she can't help but blame this on her sister. Her relationship with her parents, however, is just as strong as it was when she was a little girl. Ella couldn't help but double over in laughter when Brynn came home with a freshly shaved head and a tattoo. What on earth was she thinking? It was as if she did all of these things to purposely get a reaction out of Lewis and Lana; it seemed like she wanted to be the least favored child. Ella couldn't help that she was the "golden child," as her sister once said to her, she just did whatever it was she was expected to do and nothing more or less.

_{In Depth Appearance}
Daisy is all smiles and perfectly styled strawberry blonde hair, designer outfits and impeccable style. She inherited her mother's height, standing only at 5'3 (although she hopes she still has some growing in her), and her father's long limbs, so despite being short, she's leggy. Her go-to outfits are usually matching two-piece sets, with either soft pastel colors or beautiful floral patterns. She has a different hairstyle each day, never repeating for the week if she can help it. There are no tattoos or scars or any blemishes on her skin, and she takes care to maintain her fair complexion. Freckles dust her nose and cheeks, but there's nothing she can do about that.

Those who don't know any better would think Daisy a pillar of natural elegance: slim and shapely, bearing almost regal. Her gait is light and airy, as though she's gliding across the ground with her quick, tiny steps, with naught a care weighing her down. She's got her mother's effortless politician charm in her bright, inviting smiles, and her father's oozing confidence in the steely glow lighting up her eyes. Those who don't know any better would envy Daisy for hitting the genealogical jackpot--after all, she doesn't have to work hard for anything, right?

But there's a reason they say not to judge a book by their cover, and Daisy is proof.

In truth, this supposed elegance she possesses is superficial, only something mustered and willed with a lot of resolution, honed after years and years of practice. It's not inherent. Daisy can be pretty to look at, but when you look closer, you can see the blood, sweat, and tears that fuel her. She wakes up early to exercise, eats healthy and rarely indulges to keep her figure. She pores through fashion magazines and binges how-to make up videos on youtube. She stresses over every outfit choice and hairstyle and takes to heart that perception of her is a reflection of her family. The last thing she'd want to do is tarnish the Cabernet name.

_{Habits//Quirks//Oddities}
❀ Scrunches her nose when forcing herself not to enjoy something she clearly likes
❀ Blasts classical music on her headphones when she needs to stay focused on a task
❀ Digs her nails into her palms when she's anxious
❀ Ties her hair up in a ponytail when she Means Business™

_Hobbies
❀ Singing. Daisy's a great singer, but doesn't have a lot of free time to devote to her craft, even though she desperately wants to. Mostly, she sings her heart out when there's no one else at the treehouse
❀ Instead of writing a diary, writes about her day to a penpal instead (like with an actual snail mail, not IM or text or email)
❀ Running
❀ Watching cheesy RomComs

_Likes
❀ Lemon cakes
❀ Dogs!
❀ Being praised
❀ Seeing her family get along
❀ Love stories
❀ Disney movies
❀ Rain

_Dislikes
❀ Failing
❀ Not being able to see her siblings as frequently as she would like
❀ Frogs
❀ Swimming (shh… she still can't swim)
❀ Gossip and people that spread them around

_{^{Starry-eyed ❀ Passionate ❀ Perfectionist ❀ Sweet ❀ Impressionable}}

_Personality
Daisy is like a luxury crystal vase, always half-full and never half-empty, decorated with pretty jewels. She radiates authenticity and is very much genuine to a fault that you might even feel bad if you were to trick or fool her (at least the first time). The world she prefers to see isn't fraught with crises and quandaries, but is instead filled with pregnant possibilities and opportunities, of romantic notions that would have been quelled long ago had she not have the immense privilege she's had all her life. Daisy is a perfectionist, an overachiever, and a people pleaser; quite a dangerous combination when she hasn't gotten a taste of the world beyond her gilded gates. The side effect of getting everything you’ve ever wanted and needed is… well, thinking you can get everything you want. Rejection and failure are strangers to her, and as such, she is perfectly ill-equipped to cope when it inevitably happens.

The occasional prick of reality isn't enough to completely break Daisy's rose-tinted glasses, though. Impossible is only another word for challenge, and she never backs down from one. She is enthusiastic and passionate in any and all matters, and so dogged in her endeavors that she'll likely wear you out with her persistent smile. No matter how much of a space case she can be, she is at heart a Cabernet, and she will succeed.

Unlike her rebellious siblings, or perhaps shaped by it, Daisy is a goody-two-shoes who likes getting attention and affirmation from her parents, siblings, and friends. At home, she is often the peacemaker, the one running around doing everything possible to make sure her parents and siblings aren't at odds. With everyone else, she is trusting and too eager to help and to please. Her loyalty is as undying as her sense of wonder, and though she might overextend her optimism at times, there is something infectious about her rosy view of the world.

_History
Being the youngest Cabernet has been a bit of a mixed bag of almost contradictory experiences. When she was younger, everything was so much easier: everyone got along, everyone was happy. Once upon a time, they were that picturesque happy family that her mother has always touted they were.

But it didn't last long. As they all grew older, unrest began to fill their home as both of her siblings began to rebel. The cracks in their perfect family were beginning to show. Daisy didn't have the pressures that were placed upon Wyatt, groomed to take the reins of their father's company, or Aliana, who their mother insisted must be socially acceptable at all times. Her parents were less hands-on with her, being busier than ever in their respective fields, but instead of being able to relish in this freedom, she felt suffocated by it. Daisy knew this was the only luxury not afforded to her older siblings, and she didn't want them to hate her for it. So here she was, practically able to do whatever she wanted without being punished for it, and what does she do? Exactly what her parents had forced her siblings, and what they refused, to do: she strived to be perfect.

Her parents rewarded her acquiescence by outwardly doting on and favoring her, although that didn't necessarily mean they paid any more attention to her. She was, after all, the least troublesome of their children, and thus required the least interfering. There were times that Daisy felt it was lonely, not being able to spend as much time with them, but every time she rationalized that it was worth it to get their praise. Besides, because of this, she got to spend more time with her siblings and her friends.

In school, Daisy is no less the high functioning perfectionist that she is at home. Classes and extracurricular activities are taken seriously, almost to a fault. Sometimes, she gets so busy that she is overwhelmed and drained, but she is nothing if not determined and optimistic. She can't remember a day where she just got to laze around and do whatever she wanted, but she daydreams about it a lot.

Daisy is currently a sophomore in a private school, overextending herself as always. After a particularly stressful end of the school year, one of her friends suggested she loosen and up enjoy a worry-free summer.

She's student body president and head cheerleader in her high school.
