(Emi have you done Mock Trial? It's a good way to get practice in if you write lawyers and/or private eyes because you act out trials and such. It's pretty great, I did it for summer school for 3 years and wrote a case that was super popular at my school.)
(Yes I have. And I can tell you everything your character just suggested is very wrong and illegal.)
Erica: WOW. That was better than when we kissed at Navy Pier!
Teagan: nods her head: Yeah. Because you passed out once we reached the top.
Erica: I didn't know how high it would be!
Zackary: Could you actually not PDA here? Please, thank you.
Avery: talking to himself hoping someone will interact with him right?
(Yep. That's Geneva for you. She's all talk and no action though. I promise she's not as b!tchy as she seems, it's just more entertaining to write an angry Geneva in 3rd person since she doesn't have her sarcastic internal monologue here.)
(Anyone else make pinterest boards for their characters?)
(Emi was your Mock Trial through school? Mine only offers it as a summer course :( But we have DECA, which seems fun. I haven't started yet, and honestly it will have big shoes to fill (those of Destination Imagination))
Avery: hello person i dont know
(Yeah it was during school. Anyway, back to the thing.)
Teagan: Do you guys like Shakespeare?
Della: I may or may not be mildly obsessed with Hamlet…
Theo: The book or the character?
Della: Yes….?
Avery: im Avery, you can call me Avs
amy (the most wonderful woman in the world): Those are beautiful names! smiles like the cinnamon roll she is
Della: My mom named me after the girl from Gift Of The Magi…Christmas always leads to jokes about me selling my hair!!
M: mood ruined, glares at everyone
Zackary: is shy, says nothing
Avs: why would someone sell their hair?
Aves: also quite terrible, im being forced to be nice or i dont get my coffee
Della: I'm getting the feeling that none of us are actually nice people. Except for amy (the most wonderful woman in the world) and Theo. And sometimes Teagan.
Avery: im from a underwater pocket demension where im from there is no such thing as coffee, it was hourendus
Erica: Speaking of coffee, I think that maaay be what's running through my veins. I drink way too much of it.
amy (the most wonderful woman in the world): A POCKET DIMENSION!! Please tell me more!!
Avery: curled in on himself and into a ball
Zackary: Sits down with a sigh
M: This is extremely boring.
Me: It’s pretty entertaining.
Della: I'm from the modern times. My dad is dead, my brother doesn't spend time with me anymore, and I have really bad depression. So yeah. And now Aunt Gen almost was killed by Senator Roge and her business partner actually was killed. So life isn't the most fun.
Zackary: Scowls, but doesn’t say anything
Theo: My parents ignore me
Erica: And me. And my mom and dad are too busy working to watch Timothy-
Theo: He's our younger brother.
Erica: And Alice is married and her husband is really pretentious.
amy (the most wonderful woman in the world): Anxiety makes me unable to do the things I want to do, and my moms are a bit overprotective of me. I mean, I love them and I know they don't want me to get hurt, but it can be a bit stifling at times.
Everyone looks at Teagan
Teagan: My life is pretty good, actually.
by now Avery has used the people talking as a way to get the heck out of there
Avery: whispers i am free
M: wondering angrily Are they going to make me tell my backstory? I have hell of a long one, considering I’m 6000.
