Helloooo, Madeline! I'm Karissa, this is Rox, Junior and Coppertale Beater. She's also from Boston! I've been playing a ton of FO4 which is set in Boston so I just went with it, haha. She doesn't have a Boston accent because she was very specifically raised not to by her extremely high class parents. Acting from a young age and not actually being in Boston much during that period of her life didn't give her a chance to pick it up naturally, either, or you better believe she'd exaggerate the hell out of it to annoy her mom because that's her favorite thing to do. I'm sure she can mimic a pretty good one at this point and it'd be very her to bust it out in his presence just to be annoying but it's nothing you can hear in her voice unless she forces it there.

I don't think Holden would like her much. She's aggressive and prone to fighting/drama, she's pretty immature given her lack of true social experience before ninth grade which means she's very emotionally driven and often unreasonable and she's also showy as hell. Rox is also antagonistic, her approach to getting a rise or a laugh out of someone is oddly the same. Girl can be a bully for sure. I don't know, it just seems like she checks all his "ughhhh" boxes. Given the tension between their teams from last year's Quidditch Cup on top of all that, they are unlikely to be on great terms. Let me know if all this sounds right or terribly wrong to you!

I wish I could follow up with a friend but my only character is this asshole. =X

Then Holden is her exact opposite - his family is a bunch of working class Boston Irish construction workers and teachers and nurses in Southie. He would definitely :( :( when he thinks she's making fun of his accent, because his is THICK. But his way of dealing with troubles is to keep calm and carry on and hope it goes away.

Yeah, she deeeeefinitely does. He doesn't get involved in all the team drama and rivalry, he just wants to play without making a big deal out of it, so he's usually the attempted conflict remediation one from Ribbonfin. Until of course he just gives up and lets them all duke it out, because honestly he can't be bothered. He probably avoids her whenever he can, but trouble always seems to kind of find him~
