HI EVERYONE! My name is Aleena and this is my first new game in four years, so please be gentle with me. Some of you may remember me from Breaking Ties, where I played Lottie Burke ([info]alottohandle) or way, way back at Hexenacht (sp??) , where I played Delilah Savage [info]nalingi_yo). I'm 26 years old and I'm currently working toward my Masters in Education, so I'm on my computer all day every day during the week. The weekends, I work at a restaurant so I am slightly less available. I live in Alaska, so my timezone is a little weird, but we'll work with it!

I bring to you.... CRESSIDA QUAYLE! She goes by Cricket, but will answer to most anything. She is here to join the ranks of hardworking, ginger, Ebonhide ladies. She isn't the smartest cookie, but she might fool you into thinking she is with her scarily organized planner and two-month long study schedule. She enjoys hosting events (NOT Azurecrest style drinking parties - ugh red cups!) and has probably made your character some sort of craft at some point.

Personality wise, Cricket comes across as very sweet. She has a warm energy and tends to remember a lot about other people. I don't want to overreach, but if your character has known her for awhile, she probably knows your character's birthday, hobbies, interests, hometown, class schedule, and the names of all their immediate family members, etc. She spends a lot of her time going out of her way to help people. BUT! She hates it! She is not nice. She is dying inside. She is very tired and she doesn't want to tutor you, but she will absolutely volunteer anyway. Deep down, she is snarky and petty, but is terrified of other people knowing that about her.



1. She is an American pureblood from Olympus, Tennessee. She has a twangy Southern accent.
2. Her father is a MACUSA rep from Tennessee (lots of talk of him being future Prez) and her mother is magical Martha Stewart, so her last name is probably familiar to most of your characters.
3. Her little brother is Ulysses! And she loves him dearly, so don't you dare cross him!
4. She was newly appointed prefect of the Ebonhide Senior Girls, when Maggie was promoted to Head Girl.
5. She is in Outdoor Exploration, Event Committee, and Equestrian Club.
6. She cries A LOT, but it is her deepest, darkest secret and tries to cry privately.
7. She would very much like to be the next President of the Magical United States.
8. Was a Horned Serpent at Ilvermorny before transferring to Gooseberry her freshman year.





1. A few very, very close friends that she allows to see her true mean girl side.
2. A wide circle of friends that she is very sweet around!
3. A frenemy that has no idea that Cricket actually can't stand them.
4. Past romantic interests. She isn't the type of girl who will meet up behind the stables to make-out, but longer term messy casual dating where intentions aren't clear, but FEELINGS WERE HURT are more her thing.



I WAS JUST TOO EXCITED TO START, SO I KNOW I MISSED THINGS!

HELLO ALEENA, I'm Meggie, one of the mods! Welcome to the game! I'm soooo excited for Cricket. c: I have four characters here, and they areeee...

Calvin Evercreech (this journal), a sophomore Ribbonfin and Hogwarts exchange student. Calvin used to be a bully back at Hogwarts, and although he's still no good at being nice and assumes the worst of people, he doesn't really pick on anyone at Gooseberry. Instead, he gets picked on by Sy Stoker! Calvin's very smart and good in classes, but he's also whiny and has a bad attitude. He loves Maggie, though, and will like Cricket a lot of she's similarly kind to him and opposes the bullying.

Diego Morales ([info]morale) is a senior Azurcrest, and prime material for secretly hating. Diego's very empathetic but sooooo desperate for positive attention that even if he gets the impression something's off about their interactions HE'S GOING TO IGNORE THAT. He's sweet and attentive, but impulsive and self-centered. He continues to make all kinds of bad choices and make everyone's lives a little harder than they need to be. He's besties with Cecil and Levi. And, of course, he cheated on Tabitha with Anuhea. HE'S A DUMPSTER FIRE IS WHAT I'M SAYING.

Rafael Ramirez ([info]firstposition) is a Coppertale senior prefect, and Cricket and him might get along pretty well (or at least pretend they do)! He's a reaaaaally overzealous prefect who is more than happy to be the Bad Cop to everyone else's Good Cop. He just wants to HELP EVERYONE. And BE IN CHARGE. He's very socially poised and has a good sense of humor, but he's also horrifically competitive and intense to a degree that makes him a bit uncomfortable to be around. His father is also a ranking politician, but in Mexico, and he claims to want to go into politics, too. He really wanted to be a ballet dancer, but with his GO HARD OR GO HOME attitude he injured his knee and had to give up that dream.

Reid Wainwright ([info]unresponsive) is a junior Coppertale and Cricket almost certainly knows him better than he knows her. He comes off like a ice prince, but in reality he's just... really awkward. He's terrible with words, and struggles in class. Cricket probably had no trouble winning him over. He's easy to befriend with half the effort she usually puts out, and he kind of low key likes everyone.

HI MEGGIE! I'm so stoked to finally join this game! Honestly, character introductions are pretty unnecessary. I've been hardcore stalking for awhile now. So, any information/personal business that you think Cricket could reasonably glean about your characters -- she probably knows it.

Seems like you're pretty spot on about how I imagine your characters will get along with Cricket. Although, I think Cricket and Diego have probably become close enough friends over the past three years that she would be comfortable coming to him personally with her frustrations with him and while she is salty with him it wouldn't manifest so much in behind the back shit talking.

But who knows!? We'll just have to play it out. I'll just have to jump right in and stick Cricket's little button nose where it doesn't belong and see what happens!

Yes, go ahead and have her know their business! Only Calvin and Rafael have any sense when it comes to ~hiding things~, and they don't have much to hide. :)

Awww! Okay, yes that sounds good. Diego actually is kind of desperate to talk about it since his tactic so far is "avoid bringing it up at all costs or everyone will be reminded you're trash" soooooo he's in need of some scolding. He gets away with too much because he's cute.

ANYWAY yes I'm looking forward to playing it out. c:
