AU NAME: Stella Heurassien (I'm strongly thinking of changing the last name to something less obviously nobility-sounding but for now...) AU AGE: 18 AU OCCUPATION: Student (I'm trying to remember if 18 is around high school senior or college freshman and failing dramatically) BLURB:
Born to a single mom living mostly paycheck-to-paycheck
Her mom named her Stella because "you're the brightest star in my life" because I have a thing for arc words?
LOVES HER MOMMA SO MUCH and is really close to her let me tell you
Very obviously poor growing up - lots of hand-me-downs/school provided lunches/etc.
I mean she's Estelle so she still takes everything in pretty good humor and is pretty optimistic/hopeful for the future.
And also really empathetic to people in rough situations because boy howdy.
Still a massive bookworm because hey, library is free entertainment.
On that note, is pretty book smart too, for the same reasons.
Absolutely had a fanfic/fictionpress phase. May still be in the former. She also absolutely wanted to be the next Christopher Paolini/Flavia Bijour/teenage author when she was 13.
Wants to go to college for a Creative Writing degree. Is planning to do so through copious use of scholarships and financial aid. (if she is in college then she is a creative writing major and there on scholarships)
Either way the good grade panic is real
I think she probably had trouble finding her niche friend-wise until she hit high school.
There were probably a few teachers who really saw her potential despite her background and how much she loved learning and were really influential for her.
Everything's a lot more solid this time around but if you have any other ideas lemme know!
LOOKING FOR:
Friends! She's probably had them all throughout her school days although had much better luck/closer friends once she hit high school
Not so Friends.... like I said she's been... obviously poor throughout her life so if there's anybody who thinks their character mighta lowkey bullied her/given her grief for that, or for being a bookworm/teacher's pet material
Family, maybe? Specifically of the extended variety, her mom barely had enough money for one kid, let alone more. She barely knows anything about her dad's side either.
If there's anybody who does a lot of volunteering/social type work, she's and her mom have probably been visiting the food bank/goodwill store a few times throughout her life!
Teachers! They've been a pretty big influence/inspiration in her life and she probably asked lots of questions! Because she likes to learn things!
Somebody who really encouraged her creative writing habits! This could also be any of the above.
FANFIC/FICTIONPRESS BUDDIES....... People who she met over the internet through her writings there. She was probably a Super! Enthusiastic! About! Their! Fics!
If you have any other ideas please feel free to toss them here! Or hmu at gorsecloud
