Soooo, just throwing it out there, but Eleanor has a spot in her npc family for a bratty little sister.

They're a fairly rich but not excessively so family, so plenty of room for brattiness and being spoiled.

Edit: OH and they lived in England years ago (until Lily would have been three or four?) if you need that as part of your backstory/want her to have an accent, haha.

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2018-03-12 01:17 am (UTC)(link)
ooooh that would be cool! That England thing would match up pretty well too!
notyourutopian: Do not take! (Oh this is pretty nice.)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-03-12 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Right? I thought so too! So the general timeline I have is they were in England for three years or so, which means she could've been born in the states, lived in england till she was four, if that...makes sense.

I've been pretty vague about the specifics of her sisters in case someone came along to play one of them, so we can pretty much force any important details in there, haha. Mom's a big high-powered business executive, dad is a weirdo writer/journalist. They have money and a dog named Grace.

*vague handwaviness*
littlestbaskerville: you should've put a ring on it! (Default)

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2018-03-14 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
lol Like how many siblings? I'm trying to make sure she isn't in too big of a family because that is super close to canon then!
notyourutopian: (Lookin' pretty)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-03-14 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, two siblings? So there would be Eleanor, another vaguely undefinied sister around Lily's age, and Lily.

So, three kids total.

[personal profile] strayknight 2018-03-14 04:02 am (UTC)(link)
That would be perfect!
notyourutopian: (Big Sister is Watching)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-03-14 11:28 am (UTC)(link)
Awesome! Okay. So what other details do we need to work out? haha.
littlestbaskerville: ohoho what is this i see (✿ i know why people‚ even though -)

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2018-03-18 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
I THOUGHT I REPLIED TO THIS!

Hmm...like I know i was saying she was cousins to one character so that could work too. Then like I guess what home life is like?
notyourutopian: Do not take! (Oh this is pretty nice.)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-03-18 09:39 am (UTC)(link)
Oh cool, who?

Home life is pretty nice! They are, by all accounts, a fairly happy, ordinary family. (I did that to counter Eleanor's canon family life which is a horrifying dystopian hellscape). All the kids are/were a bit spoiled, pretty much want for nothing but not so badly as to be bad kids, that kinda thing.

Lots of room to fiddle with it.

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2018-03-18 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Diamond!

That sounds really similar to what I was going for with Lily! In canon she was branded and throw into the woods from a big, poor family in a poor village so this match well to what i wanted~
notyourutopian: (Always in mother's shadow)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-03-18 06:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. Eleanor is a bioshock character so her childhood was...ah...neglect, torture, body horror...what fun.

Here, they get happy lives!

And a cousin! Haha.

Oh hey and Lily would have the last name Lamb. L.L. is kinda cool for initials.
littlestbaskerville: no baby don't cry let me love you (✿ thirst for mutual love.)

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2018-03-18 08:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah lol I know a little of bioshock!

Yay! until the memories start ahaha Like Lily does get some happiness by being a Baskerville!

Yes~

That is All good with me! I was trying to figure out what her last name should be.
notyourutopian: (Reaching Out)

[personal profile] notyourutopian 2018-03-19 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
They can bond over terrible memories, I would imagine.

So this is awesome. I will admit I'm pretty excited.
littlestbaskerville: LOVE LOVE LOVE makes the world go rouuund (✿ now i've found it‚ maybe this is home!)

[personal profile] littlestbaskerville 2018-03-19 07:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes!!

I am too~
