Hellloooo Gooseberry. I'm XIII. I've played with some of you before. I'm a theatre/event tech, so I have very odd life schedule and my life has been sucking lately, but I decided to come back to gaming to try to inspire my brain.

I bring you two adorable boys, Kelekolio Tupuola

Kele is a soft personality. He is very quiet, but enjoys being around people. There is a lot of worry that happens in his mind where he tries not to show it outwardly. His life started off dark, but the way of Hawaii makes it hard to focus too much on it.
- Kele has a natural affinity to divination, in which Seers run in his family every other generation and it is his 'turn'. But whenever he does do some kind of divination (usually dealing with mirrors) he loses himself and it is very uncomfortable for him to not remember the things he 'reads'.
- He is childhood friends with An (and second "cousins"). He too loves the outdoors, kayaking, dancing, all things that come with their very open culture.
- Bakes when he gets upset.
- Considers himself non-binary as far as gender is concerned, but since he is from a small community, he has not had much of a chance to explore this aspect of himself.
- Is part of the Outdoor Exploration and Boating club.

I'd like it if he had some friends, people that pick on him, other students that might ask too deep of questions for his comfort, and people that drag him away from the broody moods he can sometimes get into. I'm pretty much up for anything.


and Ezekiel Covington

It seems much like his roommates, Ezekiel is a living puppy dog. He loves life, doesn't think anything could be bad enough to get his spirits down and has no idea how privileged of a life he has led.
- He is outgoing, happy-go-lucky, and incredibly excitable. (It's akin to asking your dog if he wants to go for a walk.... OMG he didn't know he wanted to so badly until you said something!)
- He hit is growth spurt early and is 6'2 now. lol.
- Ezekiel is nearly the exact opposite of his brother. He really doesn't study hard and doesn't actually need to because he has an aptitude for picking up skills easily.
- Deep down he is sort of jealous of his brother because everyone looks to him to be responsible and just expects Zeke not to be. He would like to be viewed as an adult once in a while... even though he doesn't really act like it.
- Is part of Dueling & Fencing, Equestrian Club, and Choir

What Zeke needs is: Best friends (I foresee him and Lachlan being buds *cough*), Crushes, people who constantly compare him and his brother, any random interactions are good!

I have nothing for you.

AHEM. HI. TIS SARA. YOU KNEW THAT.

We've already discussed Isaiah here and Ezekiel, obviously, but...hi!
Meanwhile Isaiah is just staring and Kele because holy shit, holy shit, holy shit is he good looking. Don't point out to him that he's staring. He'll die.

I have others!

Ree Hobbs reehobbs is my lil Azurcrest sophomore artist gal. She's everywhere all the time, she gets in everyone's business (and HEY, she and Kele can discuss the perils of pansexuality or something, idk.) She clearly knows Ezekiel via housemates, and thinks he's awesome and adorable and loves her puppy dog Azurboys.

Saira Raza sairaza is a junior Coppertale Hermione analogue but with more sarcasm and study plans. I imagine her just staring at Ezekiel askance and having no idea what to do with him. And being SO ANGRY that he doesn't need to study hard to do well (though tbh she doesn't need to study hard to do well EITHER, she just DOES because failure is DEEPLY not an option.) She has brother issues too, though1

And Gabi Flores gabiflor is baby Ribbonfin sweetheart angel child who is perpetually optimistic, naive, and sweet. She's in Divination! And Equestrian club! So.

[ohappyday.insanejournal.com]

ahhhhhhh I"M SO EXCITED!!

This is Sarah, of Anuhea fame, and we have discussed her and Kele to a great extent and I'm super excited to play them in game. She loves him very much, and it's nice to have someone from home who understands the island. For Ezekiel, aww he's so cute. An would pet his head haha. Not sure how much they will cross paths but he's so cute.

Victoria is the same year as Kele and he's in the same house as her sister/best friend Vee. She's trying to be more friendly, so hopefully she will open up and chat with him some :) She's kinda sarcasm at first with a lot of people as defense mechanism but she's pretty sweet. I think she would be more likely to know Ezekiel since they are in fencing and he's friendly and she's not so its easier to be friendly with people who seem nicer. Friendly?

Lachlan. Okay, lol obviously he and Ezekiel are buddies, good lord. They are very compatible, for sure. They will sing away in Choir, it'll be great! And Kele he will talk at you or listen as you might need, he's just sweet that way, and they will be in Outdoor Exploration together (aka the best). He LOVES NATURE and will be very interested in what Hawaii is like.

Okay hello. I'm Emma and I have four but two of them don't matter. They really don't.

Sooo. This is Hayley Ferris, just call her Ferris, she's an Ebonhide sophomore who grew up on a compound in the woods with rich rednecks basically. Ferris is miserable at social things, magic and not using 'fuck' every sentence. Her only redeeming factor is that she can play the violin really well and that she isn't the worst person in the world.

My other relevant one is catseyenebula who is Katya Ivanova, a very Russian Azurcrest Junior who basically just likes everyone, is the most easy going Prefect ever, occasionally has a bad temper outbreak and horribly thick accent. She's super nice and the basic opposite of Ferris.

Okay, um. I have others lfmkarapst who is Trixie Armstrong the resident mad scientist and rararasmussen aka Jeremiah Rasmussen 'Ras' the boating slacker hippie. Both seniors. Trixie is Coppertale and Ras is Ribbonfin!

Hi hi! My name is Caroline and you can read about my kids here (http://asylums.insanejournal.com/goose_ooc/46551.html?#cutid1), I'm new toooooo.

Di would know Kele because of being Sophomores and Ebonhides. She's also the quiet type that likes being around people - they could be friendly?
Pin would talk at him a lot and knows him bc Sophomores and they're in O.E. together - he's....Pin

Di knows him from Choir and is nice
Pin talks to everyone so he WILL be hearing from him

[cheerpowers]

HEY THIRTEEN. It's Callie! (Or at least I'm assuming you're the same Thirteen I used to play with, otherwise ~awkward~) Welcome to the game! I have 4 here.

Vee here is also a Junior Ebonhide. She is "Perky overachiever with an inability to say no or comprehend failure." Vee joins every club, takes every class (or she did before she realized that wasn't realistic, and it still makes her sad she can't tbh), and is generally someone who likes to keep busy and do well and be perfect because that's important. She's friendly with everyone, which can be annoying or overwhelming. She loves all her housemates, so she could try and be the person to pull Kele out of broody moments? She also bakes too so they could do that together. And she'd love to be bouncy or whatever else you need with Zeke.

Susana Velasquez will, however (gottaplay) Coppertale Sophomore. Quidditch obsessed, grew up in a wealthy family but was always ignored/overlooked. She can be a bit guarded and have attitude, but really she's a sweet girl who just likes being noticed. Quidditch makes her feel special and important so she is super into it. She's a sophomore like Kele, and I think his quietness will work well with her. She sometimes needs to just tone it down and relax. Zeke might make her O_O a little, but she's friends with a few Azurcrests and not mean, so I'm open to anything!

Marilyn Fairchild (notmonroe) Junior Ribbonfin. She plays Quidditch, but grew up in a literal zoo (parents are a magizoologist and a dragon tamer so they lived outdoors on reserves and moved around a lot) Think Mean Girls, because she's super sweet and naive with social things, but got taken advantage of by a mean clique who told her she was pretty and could use it. However, she's not that anymore, but she still likes girly things now and tries not to be too high maintenance. Super sweet and innocent to everyone, so she'll be nice to both of yours. She loves the outdoors, obviously given her upbringing, so she shares that with Kele and is super upbeat like Zeke. Regardless of whether she fits lines though, she'll be nice.

Ryan Hertz (glasshalfdoomed) Senior Azurcrest. He had a rough childhood (dad abused him when he found out he had magic because he thought he was "evil", mom never in the picture) So he basically now doesn't think he deserves to be happy or have good things. But since finding out his mom is in Azkaban, he decided he didn't want to be like either parent so pretends to be an aloof yet charismatic enigmatic bad boy, when really he wishes he could be his doome cookie reclusive self. He isn't overly extroverted, but isn't mean. He obviously had a rough start too, but doesn't advertise that so I'm not sure if he and Kele would ever have opportunity to connect? I'm open for randomness though! And he's in Zeke's house so I'm sure they'll see each other.

lost puppies please assemble at the azurcrest junior boys cabin

[isolate.insanejournal.com]

Hi XIII! You have the best name. I'm Kenzie and I'm new and I have these two people.

Garrett "Sly" Ogletree (isolate), Coppertale Sophomore, Prefect, Dueling & Fencing, Outdoor Exploration, Quidditch Reserve Beater/Chaser. His concept is "Near-silent reformed rebel in the streets, mischievous consulting troublemaker in the sheets." Despite being the only prefect and the only dark-haired one, Garrett is the Ogletree you might not have heard of because he doesn't talk much. A lot of people think he's an arrogant snob because of this, but he's actually just shy. He won't initiate conversations, but if you start it you'll actually find he's got a mischievous and sly sense of humor to go with his studious athleticism, and he loves danger and trouble as much as the next guy. (He's a "consulting troublemaker", you see, which is exactly what it sounds like.) Garrett is in Outdoor Exploration with him and is in Ebonhide all the time because his twin is there, so he'd know him a bit. Since they're both pretty quiet, they might get along? And he'd know Zeke from Dueling and Fencing, which is his favorite club. But probably not very well.

Bailey "Bae" Hartman (cyrano), Ebonhide Junior, Cheer Squad, Event Committee. Her concept is "A busybody matchmaker who purposefully confuses "good match" with "good drama." Bailey is a meddlesome matchmaker who will set you up whether you ask her to or no. Really she just loves drama, so sometimes it's less about perfect match and more about how entertaining the couple will be. Shockingly, when not matchmaking, Bailey is actually pretty quiet and normal and understated. Her own business is kept on a bit of a lockdown, and she's not really prone to drama in her own life because it's only fun when it happens to other people. She loves event planning, cheerleading, and basically anything to do with the social side of school. Bae is in Ebonhide with Kele and finds him fascinating. She'd probably be one of the ones who asks him too many deep and invasive question. And Zeke she thinks you are SO CUTE OMG. She wants to be your friend right now. No takebacks.

[nobletoo]

Hello! Welcome to the game! I'm Jackie (and I'm pretty sure we played together at one point in the past) and I've got two brats at the current moment:

Frankie Noble over here is an Azurcrest Sophomore. She's an enthusiastic little nerd. Her momma's a baker, so she's very on the sweets front. And the bread front. Mm, bread. She's chipper as heck, but she's also pretty good with quiet. And with other people being quiet.

And Roxanne Barringer (tightwire) is a Junior from Coppertale. She was raised in what pretty much equates to Magic Traveling Circus and walks tightrope when she's not at school violently beating on things during Quidditch games.

[quinning]

Hello, welcome, I'm Kas! I'm burned out on intros, I'm sorryyy

Quinn Cunningham (this journal) is a senior Azurcrest, Prefect, & Quidditch reserve. She's a jock with a very playful/sarcastic sense of humour. She's mad studious but is also a party animal who may be a hypocrite.
- KELE: Prob doesn't run into him
- ZEKE: YAY JUNIOR AZURCRESTS 💕 her life's mission is to learn them how to party responsibly. He's just to cute. A+

Kurt Wolfhart (lovekurts) is a junior Ribbonfin. He's very shy, has a stutter, and is trying to become a confident social butterfly this year (AKA New Kurt). It's only mostly failing. He's a nature nut who loves animals and Drama and spends a lot of time at the Stables. He's a sweet little dude who doesn't like confrontation.
- KELE: Is in OE & probably is like "👍 quiet life"
- ZEKE: Equestriaaaaans. Kurt is an excitable dog too! (Seriously, I changed his Animagus form from a crane to a dog because it was always meant to be.)


Casey Patterson (sunsoutgunsout) is a junior Coppertale. He tries to be a bully and needs to be in control 24/7 but isn't terribly smart. He has a habit of taking off his shirt, and is a contemporary dancer on the Cheer Squad. Runs D&D in Gaming. Secretly on the path to becoming Woke as Fuck thanks to Cricket.
- KELE: Also doesn't encounter, is for best.
- ZEKE: They're in D&F and Casey will think he's cool if Zeke doesn't go "fucking shit up." Unsure what that entails.

Re-posting because that was a mess!

[choneychurch]

Hey XIII~ I'm Katie. Welcome to the game! :D

I'm giving something new a try (for my sanity; so many intros!!), so hopefully this is okay! I'll go into the basics of overlap and potential interactions below, but actual summaries for each of mine (if you're interested after the below) can be found here.

Cecil (choneychurch): Cecil is an Azurcrest senior, Head Boy, a fellow Seer, and a generally nice guy. If Kele ever wants someone to help with readings or just talk about divination with, Cecil's certainly up for that and will be supportive as can be; he knows all of the Inner Eye stuff can be unsettling at times. Especially given how Kele's works. He also bakes (like, a lot; like so much he's banned right now so he doesn't ruin the bake sale) and is in Outdoor Exploration. I could see these two being friends (though Cecil might try to big brother him because of the age difference) or baking buddies or Cecil trying to cheer him up at times? Let me know if any of this interests you!

Cecil wants to take care of all of his baby birds and Ezekiel is no exception. He'll be friendly toward him and try to take care of him, mostly. They're also in Choir together! Cecil, at 6'4", is also one of the few people around taller than Zeke!

Casper (casperkim): Casper is a surly, angry Ebonhide junior and prefect that probably has very little to do with Kele apart from their house and the fact that they're both in Boating. I imagine there's a 'live and let live' dynamic there since Kele's quiet and unlikely to annoy Casper unless he just responds poorly to his negative attitude and constant swearing. Sorry he's a jerk, but at least Kele doesn't have to be his roommate?

Casper spends a decent amount of time at Azurcrest because he's not-quite-dating Katya and he's a junior like Zeke, so they're likely aware of each other. That said...Casper probably doesn't like him. Overly happy, excitable people can grate him unless he's in a particular mood. He won't go after him or anything, he'll just glower a lot. They're in Dueling together and Casper is an absolute beast in Duealing; he always plays very hard and takes it very seriously.

Cole (colemoss): Cole is a sophomore Ribbonfin that's a naturally gifted artist and a naturally gifted wizard (that excels despite putting effort into almost nothing), but he's also pretty socially inept. He's not good at communicating and has a tendency to live in his own head...so he probably does't have much overlap with Kele or Zeke. He's definitely around, though, and he's definitely drawn them both because he draws everyone.

Ty (tyhawkeswood): Ty is a Coppertale senior and captain of the Cheer Squad! He's also extremely outgoing and energetic and loves to dance SO MUCH, so if he knows that Kele likes to dance he'll be roping him into things (or, at least, extending open invitations that he hopes he accepts) constantly. Kele might be a little overwhelmed by Ty (because a lot of people are), but Ty likes him!

Sadly, there's not much overlap for Ty and Zeke, though Ty is also pro- more fun and excitable people so maybe they'll surprise us in-game~

hello & welcome ♥ !

i'm kay & i have threee kids here :

Zoey Valentine, valentinez, a ribbonfin senior. calm, friendly, frankly super ribbonfinny w some sprinkles of rebellion. she plays chaser for her quidditch team, is in a band w a couple of azurcrests, super super good at potions, kinda brainy/academic, annnnnnd also a wannabe seer (much to the dissatisfaction of her mother). most recently she's been falling back into some overworking tendencies & getting quietly disillusioned w things ;-; she tends to get along w pretty much everyone cos she's so chill ? i think she and kele in particular would really get along -- their personalities seem like they'd mesh, and they have divination in common. c: that said, when she crosses paths with ezekiel she's definitely friendly because she likes his brother a lot.

then there's Laurel Templeton, laaurel -- she's an azurcrest senior, super into drama & theatre & costumes and clothing charms, dancer, nerdy lil bookworm. she's kinda just a silly, straightforward, cheery type who thinks everything is funny and has a hard time taking anything seriously except her sincere interests. she also has an identical twin in ribbonfin, which is fun. she's generally pretty easy to get along with too i think, if a bit of a weirdo. would like both boys! she and zeke especially overlap and could be excitable lil puppy dogs together :d

last is Jonathan Wilde, destructobot. ebonhide junior. he's an aloof, pretentious lil dude w a competitive streak who likes to write ~secret poetry~ and do sick skateboard tricks/risk his life for the daredevil lulz. reserve keeper for the ebonhide team. hides insecurities under a prickly too-cool too-smart exterior, or at least that's what he hopes. is actually kind of a good friend if he likes you. i kinda just picked wilde up so am still gettin used to him so it's hard to say if he gets along w people quite ;-; i think he might actually kind of like kele, though. kele is too chill. they also have overlapping outdoorsy interests and stuff? meanwhile wilde definitely doesn't get along w zeke, probably? he's just not about that kind of energy and might kinda give him shit for it .-. but who knows

[doobwaa.insanejournal.com]

1. Hello and welcome.
2. I love you are using Boo Boo. I used to use Fivel Stewart for Anuhea before I had to leave for a bit to get life in order. So now I just have Bianca :).

Kele and Bianca are both sophomores. They aren't the same house, but they both are in outdoor exploration together. She is pretty chill so they might get along fine.

Zeke and Bianca have cross over with dueling. They might get along as well.

Bianca for the record is pretty chill, kind of horrible with being on time and organized. She likes to sleep. She is pretty relaxed and a good friend.

[sheepish]

HELLO~~ I'm Ali! I have Ennis here, Magdalen (Senior Ebonhide, Head girl, fensterln) and Levi (Senior Azurcrest, Chaser, idfk)

Ennis and Kele have a lot in common! Ennis' father was a Seer and he grew up obsessed with Divination to an unhealthy degree. His specialization is osteomancy (divination with bones) and myomancy (divination with mice/rats) but he likes to try them all~ Heee also likes baking! And he would also identify as NB if he cared to explore, but he doesn't really think about it much because he doesn't experience gender dysphoria.

And I think Levi would get along really well with Zeke! He's a dog-type too and gets super excitable over everything and they probably feed off each other's hype from time to time.

[thecourtier.insanejournal.com]

Hi XIII! I'm Heather and I have four here.

This dude is Dominic Tremblay. He's the Coppertale Junior Male Prefect, proud Quebecois, future Auror and badass and at the same time one of those guys who is hot stuff and he knows it - he's just not a complete ass, though he is a flirt! He's pretty friendly, but doesn't like entitled or purposefully mean behaviour.

Tabitha Ogletree is the Ribbonfin Cheer Captain, a Senior, and from a fancypants pureblood family from Philly (her dad is one of the state reps to MACUSA). She's an artist/musician as well as a dancer and hopes to be a classical musician after school. She's a gentle soul, basically!

Joanna May is the Sophomore Prefect in Ebonhide. She's a teeny but feisty powerhouse from NYC and is very proud of her Italian-American immigrant, hard working heritage. She's here on a full ride as her previous school was not exactly for the advantaged in life. Like Tabitha she is in choir and drama.

Finally, Will Chase is an Azurcrest sophomore and human puppy. He loves soccer and the outdoors and wants to be friends with everyone, though not aggressively so.

Welcome to the game!

[orangepip]

Hi XIII, welcome to the game! I'm Josie and I have four characters here:

This journal is Pippa Nightingale, a Ribbonfin sophomore and Hogwarts exchange student new to Gooseberry this year. She's on a mission to snag herself an American boyfriend, and has a tendency to giggle and blush whenever she's around cute boys, so... HI KELE, HI ZEKE~~~

Henrietta Gray (unregrettable) is a senior and the new Azurcrest Quidditch captain, taking over from her sister who was captain for the last two years. She's a typical party girl, likes flirting and having fun, but can be pretty blunt. She'll know Kele from OE and Boating. As for Zeke, it sounds like they'd get on really well, plus Etta would so be up for making out with him at parties, JUST SAYING. (And since Etta is so tall, Zeke wouldn't even have to bend his knees to kiss her!)

Coralee Wong (firecoral) is a Coppertale junior, and kind of a bitch although she tries to hide it under fake sweetness and passive aggression. Coralee is a troll who loves stirring up trouble for the lulz. Your boys should avoid her if at all possible. She will be more than happy to make Kele uncomfortable, and compare Zeke to Isaiah.

Aaaand lastly, I have Irene Lovelace (interlacing), an Ebonhide senior who is pretty quiet and bookish until you get to know her. I can see her and Kele sitting around the Ebonhide campfire not talking in companionable silence, haha. Irene will know Zeke from Duelling & Fencing and Equestrian Club, so she could be a friendly-ish acquaintance?
