good old days.
the story so far.
In high school, you were the best of friends. all seven of you, though different, came together because of one person. and his name is Joshua Wellington.
Well, his name was Joshua Wellington.
Your group of friends was well known by everyone in school and out of it. you may not have been the popular socialiser but everyone knew who you were anyway. You all had your own niche, but you all had your wild sides too. You shared a lot together. Tears, romance, and of course, lots of in house drama.
After high school, you all went your separate ways. Some of you kept in touch. Others may not have. Some of you may have even ended things on a bad note. But now, five years later, you find yourself all coming together again due to the mysterious death of the very successful Joshua Wellington.
In his memory, all six of you remaining decide to head up to a beach house you used to hang out in as teenagers. It belonged to Joshua. You decide to spend a week there to catch up, though the main aim is to disperse his ashes into the ocean, as he had declared he had always wanted.
Now that you're all back together, will secrets you've kept hidden come out? Will pent up feelings bubble to the surface? The possibilities are endless...
the roles.
THE CHEERLEADER | open
the golden girl. the one that's got everything figured out. or so it seems. she's gorgeous, she's popular, and she can make people run circles around her, but it all just hides the fact that she comes from a broken home. her dad died a long time ago and she's been left with her sister and perfectionist mother who constantly verbally abuses her if she doesn't do well in school or cheerleading. she's been forced her whole life to put on a perfect front, and it's turned her into a bit of a bitch. she and the rebel don't get along because she can't stand the idea there's someone else who stands up to her.
THE JOCK | open
the boy next door. the athlete. another popular one in the group, and a major flirt. he comes from a rich household, run by only a father, since his mother died a long time ago. his twin sister is the rebel, and they grew close because their father was constantly on them, pressuring them into being the best. as a result, they both ended up choosing different paths than what their father intended. he worked hard to try and get a football scholarship, but he also kept secrets, like the fact that he stole money after his dad cut him and his sister off. he and the cheerleader used to date once upon a time and there may still be feelings left around to sort through.
THE REBEL | taken
she is the younger sister of the jock. like him, she grew under the pressure of her father who wanted them to join the family business and become lawyers. he's entirely money minded and a total crook who won't stop at anything to get what he wants. she is sure he's been up to some shady business as well, which led her further away from him. she rebelled in every possible way, staying out late, going to parties, drinking. she has her secrets too though -- like how she was dealing drugs for a short period of time in order to earn money when she got cut off from her father. she and the bad boy are best friends.
THE NICE GIRL | open
she's the quiet one. the one that prefers to just observe instead of passing commentary or bluntly giving her opinion. she's intelligent, always first in class, but she's been dealing with some demons of her own, like an eating disorder that stemmed from when she was in middle school and was bullied by some of the popular kids. she too, was pressured by her mother to become something great, but she was always more polite and more conservative than her older sister, the cheerleader. she loves to help people but holding her feelings in can only last so long and soon enough, she may just snap.
THE HACKER | open
he's the total nerd. he can always be seen with his computer, and he does jobs for people, tracking things down or getting info for them -- all at a price of course. he started this out in order to help his mother. his dad was a deadbeat who never stuck around and his mother soon was diagnosed with cancer. they were struggling to make ends meet from the start and it got worse with medical bills, so he put his talent with computers to good use to make some money. he's the guy that knows pretty much everything about anyone, but keeps to himself most of the time. he usually responds with quips and sarcasm. he has harboured a major crush on the nice girl for a long time.
THE BAD BOY | open
he's the guy from the wrong side of the tracks. trouble seems to find him wherever he goes. he's bounced around various different foster homes and has never truly known who his parents were. his current foster parents couldn't give a shit about him either, but he couldn't care less because he has a bed to sleep in at the end of the day. he hung around with some bad company for a short while and as a result, he has a secret that he's been struggling with. he has harboured feelings for the rebel for a while now but he and the jock don't get along.
my expectations.
This is a reboot of a roleplay I once did that never really took off. I've found that it's easier for me to manage groups with less people which is why this roleplay will require people to double up, meaning that in total, including myself, this group will only consist of three people. It is more of a first come first serve basis, though I may give preference to people I have roleplayed with before.
I would like people who can write well, and at least 3-4 paragraphs per character, and who can post at least once or twice a week. If you are already part of more than two group roleplays, I would prefer that you not apply for this one because i would hate for someone to drop out of this in the middle, as there are only three people to begin with for this roleplay. We also will be using a discord server for ooc, but the posting of sheets and the main rp will all take place on rpn.
Right now, all I need from people interested is: your preferred roles (a male and female each, please) | your face claims | how you think your character would have been related to joshua wellington (excluding having had a serious romantic relationship with him) | a small writing sample
