Rhett Butler, or something. (vrtt) wrote in weddedplot,

Howdy! This is Everett Butler (PB is Adam Levine). He's an ex-musician (there's a fairly successful boy band, followed by a solo project in his past), who now owns a small recording studio called Rags to Riches Records. His musical career was ruined by a fire in a nightclub, where smoke inhalation damaged his vocal chords to an alarming degree. I don't have a premade for him, yet, (but he'll be single) and I'm finishing up his little profile page, but I'd love to work in some lines. He's been in NY for several years, now... At least, since 2008. Ev's usually pretty patient and easy-going, but he can be sarcastic and an ass at times - especially when he starts thinking too much of what might have been.

So... Lines?

	Exs and good friends! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I'm in! Did they date before or after the accident? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bobery 2012-03-02 08:06 pm UTC (link)
	Either. During, maybe? Helped him through and that's why they're still close? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I like it! She was probably one of the only people he continued to talk to, during his hermit period. He probably thinks she walks on water, wants to shake her to death sometimes, and hates any man that gets too close to her, because none of them are good enough for her. Sound good?

	She does that to people! Makes them want to shake her. That sounds great, actually! She'd have been patient but supportively prodding. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's awesome! Works perfectly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I just realized how much they have in common. She wanted to move to Paris, he wanted to sing. They both have that sort of jaded streak in there. As you may have noticed... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vrtt 2012-03-02 10:26 pm UTC (link)
	Here's his profile. I'll link you to the original later, if you want. He's a fighter... and definitely a little jaded. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	In general, Bob is optimistic and pretty easygoing, but you get just the right nerve and damn. Plus with her background she could also have helped him with the business end of his studio, helping set it up and get him on track. I'm going to assume they were together long enough that it was substantial before everything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vrtt 2012-03-03 05:55 pm UTC (link)
	Absolutely. He'd have appreciated that. He has a temper and I could see him having swept all of the papers off his desk in a fit once or twice. I was thinking that Ev's poor attitude and insistence in being a hermit probably killed the romance in their relationship. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bobery 2012-03-03 06:00 pm UTC (link)
	Good. That sounds about right. It would have been sad, but I think she'd have understood. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	vrtt 2012-03-03 06:04 pm UTC (link)
	Probably one of his biggest regrets, but he'd be glad they stayed close and she didn't run away. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	bobery 2012-03-03 06:06 pm UTC (link)
	She's stubborn. But you can't hold on to someone who doesn't want to be held. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I love it. Now, help me with a premade! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The Producer? The One With Regrets? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Well, since Bob is the ex-girl, he'd definitely know this guy (Kyle), best friends since they were kids and practically always around one another. Since she and Everett seem to still be on good terms, Kyle has no real reason to dislike the guy. So, anything goes! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Sounds like a plan to me... Kind of casual acquaintances? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Perfect. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Giovanni can appreciate the creative types, as he's an artist. He's usually more drawn to them on the whole. He's only been back in New York for about a year, but he lived in New York the first eighteen years of his life. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	If we can figure out how they met, I'm down for whatever. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	garossi 2012-03-09 01:33 pm UTC (link)
	Well, Giovanni gets around social-wise and his stomping grounds are fairly diverse. Where would you guy likely be found? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I can offer up Willow for something. She is Kyle's cousin, but that doesnt mean they have to know each other bigtime or anything. Maybe just acquaintances or she was a fan of his music? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	vrtt 2012-03-04 09:37 pm UTC (link)
	I like it. Maybe some combination of the two? She was a fan and then she got a chance to meet him, because of Bob? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sounds like a plan! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I can offer Capri for something. She's a dancer so maybe she danced in a video of his? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	vrtt 2012-03-09 12:51 pm UTC (link)
	I'm thinking back through the last incarnations of him... and I think that would work. I'm cheesy and I think he would have sounded like Maroon 5 in his career. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I realized I'm slacking on these posts. I have this guy, he's from Spain, plays for the New York Red Bulls. He's friendly, and really needs more guys in his life, he seems pretty surrounded by women. Friends? Or whatever else you might have in mind? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	vrtt 2012-03-09 12:53 pm UTC (link)
	Rhett could use a guy friend. Maybe they met and Rhett got schooled over the soccer/football thing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	merodio 2012-03-09 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	Could work. And they could have built some level of friendship since. Depending when he was in a band, and touring, they could have even met years ago, maybe if Rhett's band had a tour date in England, and some of the other guys wanted to go and drug him along. Or we can have them have met here at some point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He was with Ocean Avenue from 1998 to 2005ish... Then, he was solo from 2006 until the fire in March 2009. I could have seen him touring in England for a bit. He would have had some fame from being with OA (and they definitely did a World tour), so I can see his fans wanting to see him solo, too. (Reply to this) (Parent)
