Venus Rosales

Date: 2018-08-10 08:09 pm (UTC)
knockyouout: (🌌 068)
From: [personal profile] knockyouout
NAME: Vee Rosales
ROOM: Junior Wands Girls
ROOMMATES: Ryan Botterill & Caitlyn Day

DECORATIONS: Even though Venus's personal sense of style is a little punk-rock, her interior decorating leans more Anthropologie chic. She likes bold prints, bright colors, and an airy feeling. Her wall of the room is completely covered in photographs of her and her friends. Being the yearbook photographer and having access the art classroom means that this mural of photos is ever-expanding, and may eventually bleed over into Caitlyn's space if she doesn't give a very firm no. She has a large silk scarf pinned to her loft bed to give her desk nook a little privacy. Not that she ever does any work in there, anyway: she uses it as a vanity and occasionally to film videos (for which she has an entire lighting set-up). She's not shy about encroaching on her roommates' space; she brought an area rug that lives in the middle of the floor, and will sometimes try to decorate Ryan's space, too. She's gracious enough to only put the things Ryan actually finds cute on her side of the room, at least.

TIDINESS: She tends to leave her things lying around the room, usually within the confines of her own space. But even if she is a little scatter-brained and prone to losing things, she's not gross. Dirty laundry, food, etc, are all cleaned up and taken care of immediately, and she doesn't like it when her roommates leave them around either.

STANDARDS: Venus can be a little hard to live with, because she definitely thinks of this room as her room and Ryan and Caitlyn as unfortunately long-term guests. Luckily, her standards of living are pretty laid back; noise doesn't bother her, she keeps a regular sleep schedule, and all things told she isn't in her own room very often. But if her roommates ever do anything that does annoy her, she gets very snippy about it really quickly.

PET PEEVES: The food thing. Being interrupted when she's doing her hair and makeup.

HABITS: God, does she ever have a routine. She wakes up well before class to get ready for the day, and always straightens and styles her hair and does a full face of makeup. Picking outfits can be arduous on non-uniform days, so she gets up extra-early on weekends. She has a similar ritual in the evening as she gets ready for bed. Her skin care regiment is frankly ridiculous and she can often be seen lounging around in face masks.

HIDDEN TREASURES: She's got a couple illicit flasks, which she hides in her shoes. She has many, many shoes. They live where her textbooks should probably go. After this habit got started she also began hiding other things she didn't want people to find in her least favorite shoes. As a result she's happy to share just about any of her possessions (and in fact frequently beseeches her roommates to borrow her clothes, because they'd look hotter if they just dressed well) except for her shoes. It's a hygiene thing!


SLEEPING HABITS: Gets up early, goes to bed late. Not entirely clear where she gets her boundless energy from. She probably clocks six hours on a good night. A pretty heavy sleeper and somewhat prone to sleep-talking, although it very rarely makes any sense. When she's really stressed out she grinds her teeth in her sleep.
BATHROOM HABITS: She showers in the morning and after working out but her evening hygiene routine is juuuust as rigorous.


COMMON ROOM: She's probably tried to decorate it at least once. But she's more likely to be found hanging out in the Wands boys' common room, which she frequently enters without invitation.

Ella

Date: 2018-08-10 08:33 pm (UTC)
fool_hardy: (Default)
From: [personal profile] fool_hardy
NAME: Ella Calloway
ROOM: Junior Swords Girl's
ROOMMATES: Willa Siskin & Rose Chapman

DECORATIONS: Something kinda like this. There's probably a lot of color and string lights. It's very eclectic, nothing truly matches, and it's very unorganized despite all the organization things she has???
TIDINESS: Ella isn't a clean person. She's not a slob tbf, but she's very forgetful. It's not unusual for her to leave her bed unmade, clothes on the floor, etc. She doesn't leave food though, so there's that? She does her best to confine the disorganization to her side of the room, though. She leaves her shoes at the door but will do that with multiple pairs, so there's probably a small pile of her shoes regularly by the door.
STANDARDS: Ella has no standards. She doesn't care what you do. Although a firm believer in sharing, she doesn't expect anyone to share their things so while you have free reign over anything she owns as long as you give it back, she's not expecting the same thing from you. She will totally respect your rules, though, unless she forgets. :(
PET PEEVES: Ella has to listen to music when she's studying or doing homework or pretty much doing anything in her room. She'll wear headphones, but the music often seeps through them so if Rose or Willa tried to yell at her or forbid her from her cherished shitty music she'd have a bit of a problem with that.
HABITS: The only routine is that she has no routine. She doesn't shower at the same time of day every day, she doesn't have designated study times or anything. She's always in and out. There is zero method to her madness.
HIDDEN TREASURES: She does indeed. Ella has a baby blanket she still sleeps with. It's a fraction of what it used to be, is super small now so it fits in her pillow and she hides it there and sleeps with it at night. She also keeps some illicit substances when she can get her hands on them.
SLEEPING HABITS: Nonexistent. There's no schedule to her sleep, either. She only sleeps a few hours every night - she tends to be up very late, is a super light sleeper, and is up early. Her sleep is really restless and she talks in her sleep almost as much as she does when she's awake. When that schedule eventually gets to her and she knocks out hard, she sleeps silently and like a rock. You could pour water on her and she probably wouldn't wake up.
BATHROOM HABITS: Ella is pretty efficient - she showers in less than ten minutes, and she gets ready at the speed of light unless there's something going on - party, dance, etc then she'll take a little more time. Typically she takes just a few minutes to throw on her make-up and get ready to go. Every once in a while she'll try and do something to tame her hair which might increase that time, but it's infrequent.

COMMON ROOM: Ella absolutely tried to decorate the common room, sorry guys. She doesn't realize if people are taking it down it's because they don't like it. She thinks it probably fell???? So she just keeps trying. She does NOT treat it like an extension of her own space, though she will forget some of her own things in there whenever she uses it so it wouldn't be unusual to see like, a blanket or a book or her ipod or whatever there.

Conway

Date: 2018-08-10 08:53 pm (UTC)
bambae: (pic#11096495)
From: [personal profile] bambae
NAME: Conway Loxton
ROOM: Senior, Wands, Boys
ROOMMATES: Russel Reeve and Sullivan Sinclair

DECORATIONS: Okay on the wall above his desk is a pretty massive cork board. Throughout the year, he'll sporadically pin things to the cork board. Things of interest, unsolved mysteries, pictures of friends, bombass essays he wrote, newsclippings of bombass hockey games. At the end of the year, he'll take everything down and bring it home with him, but the one thing that remains regardless of time is a picture of himself, Hadlee and their sister Coyote.

He also has a few miscellaneous posters of pro Hockey players. And Gal Godot as Wonder Woman bc bitch is badass and deserves to be on his wall with the rest of the badasses.
TIDINESS: Conway is not super tidy. He's not a pig, and his mess tends to stay on his side of the room and accumulate around or under his bed. There's always an order to his mess and he always knows exactly where everything he needs is. His desk is always a massive plathora of books, notes, papers, etc. that he tends to shove to the side when he has to do some kind of assignment. His bed is never made. The sheet on it rarely gets changed, but it's usually always a tangle of blanket and pillows. He does not take his shoes off at the door. Sometimes he fails to kick his shoes off of the bed when he passes out at night.
STANDARDS: Conway has no expectations of his roommates. He tried designating quiet time like once, toward the end of last year, and it did not go super well. Partially because Conway isn't super great at participating in quiet time either. He doesn't really take much of his roommates shit, and he doesn't really give a shit if they take much of his. He does best if the room itself is more of a free space, where they don't have to deal with bullshit facades or worry about pissing somebody off, so he tends to hold his roommates up to a similar standard as that. It's the hardest to piss Conway off when he's in his own room.
PET PEEVES: I don't know. He doesn't have any pet peeves pertaining to rooms? Like so long as you're not a naggy bitch?
HABITS: Conway does homework assigned Fridays the day he receives the assignment. Sometimes he bitches about the topic while writing the paper, and he can mean about it - to the topic itself. He wakes up early, and goes for a run early. I strongly believe that no matter what is happening inside of the room, there's always music of some kind playing? Like no matter what.
HIDDEN TREASURES: Conway has a box of things that felt wrong to leave home that he keeps under his bed. Inside of the box are trinkets he's hard for years. A hockey puck, a bracelet, a letter that's been folded and unfolded so many times, the crease lines are starting to wear thing, a mix tape. He rarely goes through the box throughout the school year, but nobody else is allowed to touch it either.
SLEEPING HABITS: Conway stays up late and wakes up early. He usually doesn't pass out until after midnight, and he usually wakes up at five. He doesn't snore, but sometimes he does talk in his sleep. He also sleeps kind of hectically; sprawled out like a starfish. He tends to lose a blanket or pillow throughout the night.
BATHROOM HABITS: Conway showers in the morning, but he showers like somebody who would rather not shower. He takes ten minutes showers, barely bothers with his hair. He doesn't have a disheveled appearance, but he obviously isn't the kind of guy who takes ridiculous pride in his hair or appearance either.

COMMON ROOM: Conway treats it like a community space. He doesn't often mess it up and when he does, he'll clean it up. Sometimes he naps in it. Sometimes he'll put up posters like this

Neal!

Date: 2018-08-10 08:55 pm (UTC)
heliocentrist: (☀️010)
From: [personal profile] heliocentrist
NAME: Neal Amr Valentine
ROOM: Junior Wand Boys
ROOMMATES: The beautiful Noah Dressler and the incomparable Martin Geary

DECORATIONS: Neal doesn't really... decorate? Despite this, his space is carefully put together by someone who clearly knew what they were doing coughvenuscough. A pattered linen he brought home from Egypt this summer hang across the lower desk area, and he clearly loves string lights because there are at least 4 strings of them adorning the desk area.. There's a cork board of curated photos of his family alongside with any odd little cards and snippets of art he finds. His shelves are full of miniatures and models he's painted himself. His bedding includes extra pillows and blankets of well-selected colors and patterns. On his desk there's a magnifying glass on a moving arm for mini painting and model building. There are a dozen or so half-burned candles scattered around his space.

TIDINESS: Tidier than the average teenage boy. Neal likes a neat space, but he's not unusually fastidious. His desk is typically covered in scattered bits of homework or art supplies, and sometimes you might see clothes abandoned on the floor next to his bed.

STANDARDS: Neal is a very easygoing roommate. As long as no one breaks his things, he's very patient and generous. He trusts his two roommates if they feel like borrowing something, and probably assumes the same of them. He probably borrows Marty's clothes pretty often and never asks. He'd borrow Noah's too but he's so tall???? He likes his room to serve as a sort of club house for him and his friends, and Venus and Liam are almost expected to spend more time here than in their own room. He gets put out if they stay away for too long. There's one rule though: Hadlee can't visit. :)

PET PEEVES: Uh not a lot, honestly? Like I said, Neal is very patient, and if something did bother him he'd just Repress. He does hate having open food lying around, though, and would get on his roommates if they were super duper gross.

HABITS: Neal doesn't relax a lot. He's always working on something, and gets bored very, very easily. There's a revolving door of new hobbies that feature on his desk. He likes to burn scented candles, and has a pretty significant collection of them.

HIDDEN TREASURES: He's Student Council President, and as such doesn't have any illicit things hidden in his area. He knows Noah and Martin do, though, and pretends he doesn't.

SLEEPING HABITS: Neal is a consistent, heavy sleeper who usually checks out around 11 and wakes up by 7. Sometimes, if prompted, he talks in his sleep.

BATHROOM HABITS: Neal's learned all of his grooming habits by osmosis via his roommates. He's not as dedicated as them, but he wakes up, washes his face, moisturizes, and tames his curls. If they push him to do more he will, and he's learned he kind of enjoys beauty routines. Advocates Jr Wands Spa Day Parties because his beautiful friends will pamper him even if he doesn't know what most of these products do.

COMMON ROOM: He sees it as a gathering space for less intimate groups of friends, and does tend to make fair use of it. Sometimes he borrows chairs and drags them into his room, where they live until staff notices they're missing. Sorry, he was going to get around to returning it!

GIF: I need to fold in some icons from The Pacific and see if I can hide the fact he's obviously in a period piece.

Dora

Date: 2018-08-10 08:57 pm (UTC)
war_like: (Default)
From: [personal profile] war_like
NAME: Theodora Sandoval
ROOM: Senior Coins Girls
ROOMMATES: Danica Laska & Lucille Simon

DECORATIONS: Their space isn't super personalized. Dora has a few family pictures up and some army decor and that's about it. All of her organization things are black, white, brown, or forest green. It's a tidy, boring, and rather impersonal space.
TIDINESS: She doesn't wear shoes inside, but she doesn't leave her shoes lying around - they go right where they should be, lined up with all her other shoes. She's clean to a fault almost - everything is always in it's place. Her bed is always made. There's no pens or pencils sitting out on the desk. Everything is always put back to where it belongs.
STANDARDS: Dora is really anal retentive, but the same strategy of teamwork she brings to her squad is the kind of thing she employs with roommates as well. She does her best to "bond" with them, and though she kinda likes the idea of a chore wheel, she would only go through with it if Danica & Lucille were okay with it. Dora is one of those people who likes to just get things done, though, so if there's cleaning to be done she usually will do it herself. She likes living in a clean, relatively quiet space. She doesn't mind your music as long as it's not deafening. She doesn't mind talking either, she just prefers a mellow sort of atmosphere. If you constantly refuse to respect at least some of her space and rules though, she likely will crack down with more rules and regulations just to double-down.
PET PEEVES: She hates mess. Don't leave dirty socks crusting in the corner for weeks okay, that's gross. Don't leave food in the room, that's gross. Don't blast your music when you know people are trying to sleep, that's mean.
HABITS: Dora is very scheduled. She wakes up at 4:45 every morning, and has a quiet alarm that goes off even though she doesn't really need it to wake up at that time. She gets up, grabs her morning bag - which is literally just workout clothes, a tooth brush and tooth paste. She brushes her teeth and splashes water on her face, changes from her pajamas into her workout clothes, and then drops her things back off in the room by 5:05 to head out and run. By 5:15 she's stretching, 5:30 she's running, and will finish up at 6:30. She's back to grab her regular bathroom bag and outfit for the day and is in the shower by 6:40. It takes twenty minutes to shower + get ready for the day and she's out the door by 7am to get breakfast. When classes and clubs are over, she studies for a few hours, reads, and goes to bed by 9. Every day.
HIDDEN TREASURES: Dora keeps a diary, like a real handwritten diary.
SLEEPING HABITS: She's a consistent and somewhat light sleeper. She won't wake up at the drop of a hat, but she' easily woken by loud noises, sudden commotion etc. She falls asleep by 9pm every night and is up at 4:45 every morning, even on weekends. There are very few exceptions to this.
BATHROOM HABITS: She's quick and doesn't take much time in the bathroom, but she is always there at the same time and will throw a huge fit if someone disrupts her schedule just sayin.

COMMON ROOM: If she's there at all, she does treat it like a common space. she won't leave things there, she won't make a mess, she isn't loud or obnoxious about being in there.

Eli Gardner

Date: 2018-08-10 09:35 pm (UTC)
pleaseloveme: (💦47)
From: [personal profile] pleaseloveme
NAME: Eli Morgan Gardner
ROOM: Senior Cups Boys
ROOMMATES: Dustin Espinosa and Wallace Dunn

DECORATIONS: Not impressive. Eli's shelves are full of tools and things for school, and a collection of toys and figurines from various cartoons and shows. There are posters on the wall beyond his desk and over his bed. He's fastened a dark blue sheet to hang around his bed for privacy, as well as for darkness if he's taking a nap in the middle of the day.

TIDINESS: Eli's a mess. He's very disorganized, and just leaves things wherever he was last using them. He often has to tear apart his whole space looking for something he lost earlier. He's usually two days behind on laundry, and everything is wrinkled.

STANDARDS: Eli likes a quiet, low pressure dorm. He doesn't want to be pressured about cleanliness, he doesn't want people touching his things, he doesn't want a lot of people over. Eli just wants a peaceful space to come back to in the afternoon.

PET PEEVES: Inviting over strangers is something that Eli reaaaally hates. If a bunch of people he doesn't know invade the room, Eli will usually leave.

HABITS: He's usually running late, loses things constantly, and enjoys a nightcap every once in a while. Because Eli transitioned pre-puberty, he doesn't need a binder, but does have to regularly take T.

HIDDEN TREASURES: Eli has an illicit stash of booze and weed that he hides under the drawers of his cabinet. You need a screwdriver to get to it.

SLEEPING HABITS: Very very bad!!!!! Eli rarely goes to sleep before 2, and then has to make up for that lost sleep later with naps. He suffers from mild self-induced insomnia, and has terrible sleep hygiene. He's quiet when he's up late, though, and tries not to disturb his roommates. He can often be found sleeping in odd places, or fully clothed.

BATHROOM HABITS: Nothing special. He's pretty bare bones about his morning ritual, and is easy to elbow out of the way if you need that last open shower first.

COMMON ROOM: Eli doesn't make a lot of use of the common room unless he's specifically following a friend out there.

Liam

Date: 2018-08-10 10:00 pm (UTC)
unironickylorenfan: (🌕 welcome to my TED talk)
From: [personal profile] unironickylorenfan
NAME: Liam Augustin Blumenthal
ROOM: Junior Coins Boys
ROOMMATES: Selby and Ulrich, two ghosts.

DECORATIONS: There are a lot of plants. A peace lily in a floor pot, a bunch of small desktop succulents, a couple of orchids, an amaryllis, an air fern (which is not a plant but a skeleton, he loves telling people) and a small cat herb garden in his window, with lemongrass and catnip for Tobermory if he ever cares to drop by. Aside from that, Liam doesn't keep a lot of decorative extras and instead customizes practical items. His pen holder is skull-shaped (and all the pens are felt, blue ink and cap-side down), his stapler is a dragon, post-it notes dispense from a black cat. He has one of those novelty skeleton animal candles, half melted. His wall is lined with posters nicked from the Strip District back home - ads for past events, movies and bands, mostly. The only photos he has are stuck to the wall - a strip of photobooth shots of him with his mother and father. He's wedged a shower curtain bar between the legs of his bed, creating a really janky privacy curtain using a shower curtain covered in cryptids.

TIDINESS: Organized chaos. Liam knows where everything should be. Whether it's there is another matter. He is fastidiously clean - surfaces wiped down, clothes washed and put away, recycling separated, trash can never too full, food always sealed and put away - but he's sort of a disaster when it comes to the clutter. The only books or papers Liam ever puts away are the private ones - inspiration journals, poetry notebooks, his DMing binder. Everything else is just kinda out somewhere: on his desk, the dresser, the floor. It's all in his own space, though. He's very particular about not infringing on other people and has a lot of anxiety about staying out of his roommates' ways. Don't Tread On You.

STANDARDS: All he asks is that if he makes himself unavailable - by pulling his privacy curtain shut or putting on headphones - that you just leave him alone unless it is an Emergency. While he's certainly willing to clean everything, himself, he's hesitant to touch other people's things and, really, just isn't really going to do a great job of cleaning. He expects to be asked before his things are touched but is absolutely fascinated by how freely some people will just touch other people's shit. So, if you just kinda walk into his space and start playing with his stuff, he'll probably just look at you like a confused dog. As a rule he will not ask to borrow his roommates things (Liam will 100% anxiety suffer for life before he asks someone else for anything). That said, outside of a reluctance to invade his roommates' spaces, he's pretty direct when he's unhappy. If a roommate's side of the room smells like poopsock, he will absolutely let them know.

PET PEEVES: Don't chew with your mouth open for God's sake or he will commit die on you. No smoking or incense or anything that will give him an asthma attack, thanks.

HABITS: Schedules are not Liam's strong suit so it's hard to pin down what he might do or where he might be day to day. Mostly, he's out a lot and his room is there to decompress and be quiet in. If he's there, he's probably tending plants, doing difficult reading or leisure writing. He writes for about an hour every night before climbing into bed. And then can reasonably be assumed to be up for anywhere from one to three hours after that...still reading, writing or fucking around on his phone. If his roommates care that much, he definitely has a few motor tics and is not consistent with his non-asthma meds.

HIDDEN TREASURES: Liam has a binder for all his DMing material that he's very protective of and several notebooks with writing and poetry and no you are not allowed to look.

SLEEPING HABITS: Fuckawful sleep hygiene, my dudes. Liam goes to bed late and then stays up in bed with a screen on not sleeping. He rarely sleeps through the night, both because he's an extremely light sleeper and he just can't. He's prone to stress nightmares and he definitely isn't getting enough sleep. He dozes off a lot as a result, especially in class. His sleep depravation has been so bad that he has suffered auditory and visual halucinations in the past. He doesn't like to talk about it.

BATHROOM HABITS: Thorough shower in the morning (and after training or if he just feels gross, so sometimes multiple times a day). Liam is the sort that will run the hot water out if you let him. He co-washes his hair. Three different hair products, scrunch and air dry on weekdays, blow dry on weekends but either way it's like 20 minutes tops. Unscented moisturizer, yes. No cologne because it's hard to breathe.

COMMON ROOM: It's a community space. So, he avoids it unless he's there with friends. Far more likely to be found in the Wands Boys' Common Room headed for the Jr Boys dorm.

lucillefer: (💀12)
From: [personal profile] lucillefer
NAME: Lucille Simon
ROOM: Senior Coins Girls
ROOMMATES: Danica Laska + Theodora Sandoval

DECORATIONS: lol. Lucy is a person with a lot of "obscure" interests, which she tries very hard to advertise via her decor. It's the Spook Zone! The cluttered, gothy Spook Zone. Black, red, black velvet, red velvet, more black. Candles, crystals. Unnecessary animal skulls. Drying dead roses in a vase. The most extra black canopy over the bed possible for PRIVACY (she needs a book light during daylight hours y'all). This is the dorm corner of an ages-old mystic vampire who loves Halloween!! It is a LAIR! ....It's also full of books. Lucy has brought almost her entire personal library from home to this school, which means they're everywhere: a miniature library, thoughtfully sorted and lovingly decorated with various knick-knacks. Lucy also has a particular love for pulp novels and horror movies, which you will find evidence of here and there. She has a large poster of Ghostface from Scream, as well as Jason Vorhees.

TIDINESS: It doesn't look like it, but Lucy knows where everything is. She has a system, especially for books, and is fastidious about keeping her wardrobe and shoes in a particular order. She just... also has a lot of stuff. There are some issues with clutter and dust. That said, it stays within the Spook Zone. Lucy is very possessive of her things.

STANDARDS: Leave Lucy alone?? Basically? The most she expects of her roommates is that they won't touch her stuff, bother her when she doesn't want to be bothered, will let her play her goth tunes in peace, etc. You can be loud, messy, play music, whatever. Have friends over indefinitely. Do whatever you want. Just... leave Lucy alone. And never, ever try to handle her instruments or laptop. ...As a roommate, in that way she's fairly low maintenance and actually rather easy to get along with, as long as you don't mind her occasional dark moods and random sniping comments as she enters or exits the space. If Lucy is displeased about something or having a bad day, it's very obvious. On a semi-positive note, occasionally her jealousy over her space can spill over to her roommates' as well; if something's wrong or someone's there that shouldn't be (or won't leave when you ask), she is a very effective guard dog.

PET PEEVES: As above: don't touch Lucy's stuff. Just don't. Don't do it!!!! Lucy hates being talked to while she is clearly reading, or when she has headphones in. Now she will never give you a straight answer. :( She dislikes small talk and attempts at getting to know her by asking about her books or posters or whatever random knick-knacks. Don't ask!! Actually, don't even look now.

HABITS: Lucy has No Actual Schedule and can be found up reading or doing random tasks at ungodly hours. Her music is definitely a "habit"; she does practice a lot (though usually with headphones) and sometimes needs to hear things "out loud" to make sure they're "balanced." She can be mildly annoying about watching movies out loud or as background noise (gory thrillers and horror, or dramatic period pieces). She's not the... greatest... student, but when taken with a particular project she will obsess over it for uninterrupted hours upon hours. Lucy are you okay???

HIDDEN TREASURES: Yes. A flask, of course. And sometimes, when just back from a break, perhaps an edible or two. Lucy also has a box of witchy shit that she loves but is embarrassed about: basically the components of an altar, private candles and trinkets, lucky objects, etc. This is only pulled out when she can practice in total solitude, or to be moved outside for ~secret spells and rituals~. She keeps some of her more Clearly This Is About Magick and I Kind of Believe In It books in less obvious locations. She's not totally shameless. She also keeps an art journal, which she hides in rotating locations. If you look closely among her gothic hoard, too, you will notice a tiny statuette of Atlas; Lucy usually keeps it out of sight because she thinks it makes her look too sentimental, but she keeps it on her desk when she's stressed because it reminds her of Yeialel. ♥

SLEEPING HABITS: Lucy has trouble sleeping and is often lucky to get more than five or six uninterrupted hours. She does tend to take the night in shifts; you'll see her napping at a random time before midnight, then awake for a while working, then back to sleep for another snatch until it's time to get ready for class. She can be hard to predict.

BATHROOM HABITS: Lucy actually spends a lot of time getting ready. Like. Way more than she would admit, especially on the weekends. Her hair is the most high-maintenance thing about her despite the fact that she barely styles it; keeping it bleached and trimmed and hydrated enough not to just break off into dust particles is a particular obsession, and it takes visible effort every week. It takes visible effort to look sufficiently alternative, period. She also doesn't work out, so her everyday shower could be... any time, really. But some time. And for a long time. She also wears a strong niche perfume, which does tend to trail after her when just applied.

COMMON ROOM: Lucy hates the Common Room because she hates community. She'll slink out here in the dead of night, though, if she needs to work on music or do something that requires more spreading out than the dorm room.

Emma Lilywhite

Date: 2018-08-10 10:50 pm (UTC)
ballhoot: ((=) even i think that's a dumb idea)
From: [personal profile] ballhoot
NAME: Emma Lane Lilywhite
ROOM: Senior Wands Girls
ROOMMATES: Lillian Armstrong & Francesca Salazar, definitely very good girls.

DECORATIONS: Nothing good. Emma didn't come to this school with a bunch of posters or anything, and she doesn't have any pictures of her family. Well, maybe an accidental selfie her little sister took on the phone, but other than that there's practically no proof she even exists outside of this damn school. But sometimes she prints something up or gets some dumbass shit from a friend as a gift and she just slaps it on the wall with duct tape or some shit. It's also possible she just draws on the walls sometimes, so maybe someone should stop her.
TIDINESS: Oh my girl's a mess. Like, shit is just everywhere, and she'll be all, "Oh I know where everything is, it's chill," but she doesn't and it's not. Emma does not understand boundaries either, and just kind of hucks shit in a random direction when she's done with it, regardless of whose space it's going into. She doesn't really mind when other people's shit ends up in her area, at least, and if you touch her things there's not a whole lot she's super protective of so go nuts.
STANDARDS: Standards is a four-letter word. If you don't expect nothing from her, she ain't gonna expect shit from you. Try to give her a rule and she'll be a little bitch about it though I tell you what.
PET PEEVES: Don't fucking shush her.
HABITS: Routine??? Lmao. She does like to run or do some kind of exercise outside of training, but it could be morning or night or just right now, she'll fight you for exercise right now guy, you wanna go?

... I bet she bites her toenails, though.
HIDDEN TREASURES: Girlfriend ain't got shit, and what she does have she loses in a heartbeat.

SLEEPING HABITS: Oh Emma snores, and the best way to get her to stop is to try and smother her with a pillow. She generally stays up way too late, sometimes just staring at her phone or doing homework or because she decided to go for a night run. Sometimes she'll text her friends at 2:00 AM and ask if they want to talk about aliens. This includes her roommates. She likes to sleep the FUCK on in, but if she happens to wake up at 5:00 after three hours of sleep then there's no getting back to sleep, time to run or fight someone or some shit, hell yeah
BATHROOM HABITS: She showers when she feels like it. It's not nearly as often as someone as active as her should shower. If she's getting ready for like a party or something, Emma will slap some trashy makeup on in way less time than it would take anyone who actually cared about how they looked. But she won't wash it off at the end of the night, and she'll be rocking that hungover raccoon look for, like, at least a day or two.

COMMON ROOM: The amount of times she has kicked her shoes off in the common room and then just left them there is distressing. Don't worry y'all, she knows exactly where they are, she'll grab 'em when she goes to work out tomorrow.

Sully

Date: 2018-08-10 11:19 pm (UTC)
youredoinggreatsweetie: (🍀 omnomnom)
From: [personal profile] youredoinggreatsweetie
NAME: Sullivan Alon Sinclair
ROOM: Senior Wands Boys
ROOMMATES: Russel and Conway

DECORATIONS: NERD ALERT. Sully's part of the room is very well decorated with a lot of music/engineering nerd shit. His wallhangings are all artsy Nicola Tesla patent prints interspersed with pictures of friends, family and drawings that his half-sister has done. A lot of his Horrible Creations are out on display. Old toys, especially furbies, feature prominently in his works. There's a Furby that has been refit with a Google Home Mini on his dresser. (Yes, it is on.) There's a furby bean bag chair. He has a sizeable vinyl collection, some serious speakers, headphones and a professional quality microphone, and a simple, vintage direct drive turntable he took from home without asking. There's also a shopping cart stolen from town filled with stuff. He doesn't use a privacy curtain.

TIDINESS: For as much sentimental garbage as Sully keeps, it's all EXTREMELY neat. His living space is clean and well tended to. A place for everything and everything in its place. Vinyls are organized alphabetically, by band, album, date. He's got bins for just about everything and they're all labeled. He tends to take shoes and socks off when he's in the dorm because he doesn't want to accidentally short something out if he decides to start tinkering. All that said, whenever Sully creates something particularly awful (like a Barbie Hand Hell Horse) he purposefully leaves it out in communal spaces for other people to find.

STANDARDS: Sully is pretty fussy about noise and being disturbed and he knows it, but he also has no qualms about just fucking off and crashing the Senior Girls' dorm room or the common room. He doesn't care if you mess with his stuff as long as you put it back and he has no respect for your personal space so sorry.

PET PEEVES: Anything with a strong smell being left out. Feeling like he can't just drop in on his own room whenever he wants (because other people want privacy).

HABITS: Sully keeps a pretty consistent schedule in that he can reliably be expected to be up and out by a certain time and back in at a certain time. And you can expect that he will be in and out almost constantly throughout the day, popping in for a few minutes here, running by to grab something there. Otherwise, he's kind of a whirlwind.

HIDDEN TREASURES: Secret booze stash of cheap liquor is kept hidden in a drawstring bag he made out of repurposed beanie babies. The hideous chimeric Frankenstein bag stares at you with dozens of soulless black eyes, the faces of various bears, cats, bunnies and dogs. It's a pretty effective warding measure.

SLEEPING HABITS: In an ideal world, Sully would be in bed by 11PM at the absolute latest on weekdays. But this is a world where he shares a room with Russel and Conway and Emma is one of his best friends. He's a light sleeper, but generally doesn't talk or snore. He is...pretty bad about actually sleeping in his dorm. He will crash in the common room or the girl's dorm or basically anywhere people will let him. Sully loves sleepovers.

BATHROOM HABITS: Too much time. Sully has lengthy morning and evening routines.

COMMON ROOM: Sully haunts common rooms like a desperate to be noticed ghost. He's frequently out there tinkering with something or playing an instrument and generally is a nuisance. He also likes to leave his worst creations out there for others to find and be startled by. Particularly in the shower stalls, if they are waterproof.

Kyra

Date: 2018-08-10 11:32 pm (UTC)
weewilywilkie: (🎾11)
From: [personal profile] weewilywilkie
NAME: Kyra Wilkie
ROOM: Junior Coin Girls
ROOMMATES: Hadlee Loxton and Eva Crawford

DECORATIONS: She doesn't have many decorations at all. She goes for a very minimalist aesthetic. Starkly so, to the point that it mostly just looks like she hasn't bothered to decorate. Her bedding is mostly white. It's a lot like this. Her corner of the room wouldn't be out of place in a home decor catalog. This is mostly because she's invested in a few pretty-looking white linens, but otherwise, she doesn't have a whole lot to advertise, anyway. She has a shelf of self-help books lining her desk, and they're the only thing she doesn't mind if people take.

TIDINESS: Kyra's fastidiously neat and tidy. She utilizes organizers for her desk and belongings, and probably blew all of her ill-begotten money at the container store. She keeps track of all of her things carefully, because she often doesn't have the means to get more.

STANDARDS: She likes the room to be clean and put together. This is more than a little because if it's cluttered, she starts kind of getting sticky finger syndrome and begins to wonder if she can just take the things her roommates clearly don't care about. But it's a bad idea to steal from where you sleep, so she heads that problem off by neatly gathering anything left in the common space on her roommate's dressers or the foots of their beds. She will personally clean the room every weekend, and if her roommates want to do that with her, she encourages it. It takes like half an hour with everyone working. She's definitely not proactive enough to do a chore wheel to spread this work out more.

PET PEEVES: Kyra doesn't really mind mess. She'll just pick it up, so if that bothers her roommates, she might be the one poking at their pet peeves. She doesn't like a lot of extra people in the room, but if they're there when she is, she doesn't often leave because she doesn't really trust them around all her things. She's tried to map out and mentally approve all of the friends of her roommates by now, but still doesn't love a crowd.

HABITS: Kyra's in her room mostly just to study and sleep, and asks for privacy when she does both things. She has a large white curtain that she uses for privacy around her study nook, and can disappear into that for hours. Studying's pretty difficult for her, so that's the respect she'll ask for.
She's surprisingly flexible otherwise. She can be seen marking her workout hours, study hours, sleep, water, etc etc into a bullet journal that isn't particularly private, but also not very cute. She tries to work out daily in the morning, and comes back to shower before breakfast, but she isn't particularly bothered about moving that routine to the afternoon, as long as she doesn't have a club.

HIDDEN TREASURES: She keeps everything valuable to her (her money, family photos, a few jewelry items, and a plain manila envelope with a few other jewelry items) in her suitcase at the side of her dresser, sewn into the lining. She accesses that only when there's no one else in the room. A more public secret is the ever-rotating but always properly sealed box of cookies (or cake, or candy, or whatever) in the top drawer of her desk. It's the sad snack jar, and she always seems to be able to produce it when someone needs cheering up. This is the only method she knows to cheer anyone up.

SLEEPING HABITS: Kyra's an early riser, no matter what time she goes to bed. At first when she moved in, she wasn't getting enough sleep, because she found it very difficult to sleep when anyone else was awake or could even possibly wake up. And she still does, but it's a more comfortable situation now that she knows Hadlee and Eva. She hides under a huge white duvet no matter the temperature, so that no one will be able to see her doing anything strange in her sleep. Which she doesn't, really, although she's a very light sleeper and wakes up violently when startled.

BATHROOM HABITS: She likes to shower after she works out daily, but if the bathrooms are full, she won't complain. She takes up a very small amount of bathroom space, and is efficient though not downright fast about doing her hair and makeup. She likes to look put together, and she'll stay in place until that happens.

COMMON ROOM: Since her bed/desk space is so expressly for studying and sleeping, Kyra uses the common room (or potentially other people's common rooms, I don't know) for unwinding. She watches truly stupid teen soaps when she has it to herself or with other people who don't mind her remote control hogging, because she's too cheap to just buy hulu like a normal child. She doesn't ever leave anything there, though, and is careful to clean up what she brings.

Rose Chapman

Date: 2018-08-10 11:39 pm (UTC)
whiteknuckles: (pic#12493434)
From: [personal profile] whiteknuckles
NAME: Rose Noa Chapman
ROOM: Junior Swords Girls
ROOMMATES: Willa Siskin

DECORATIONS: Rose doesn't have a lot of stuff and the shit she does have can't be said to follow any sort of deliberate design aesthetic. She's got a blanket from home on her bed, some extra pillows she must've jacked from a supply room, and a few photographs in tremendously, unironically tacky frames. And that's about it. That said, she's got a strong packrat tendency, so by the time she graduates, she's liable to have accumulated all sorts of junk. Her bedroom at home has got this sort of vibe and even though that mostly carries through to FWA, having her own space is kind of letting her live out her secret dream of having a pillow nest.

TIDINESS: Rose actually really values her possessions and tends to keep her special things exactly in their place. She's not overly fussed about cleanliness, though. Dirty dishes? Yo, whatever.

STANDARDS: Oh, just TRY to enforce a chore wheel, I dare you. This isn't jail and you girls can't make her do SHIT.

PET PEEVES: Rose is more comfortable in close quarters than you might expect, so seeing a roommate clip their toenails or whatever is hardly going to get her hackles up. She's not shy about hollering at her roommates if they violate what she considers to be a tenant of common courtesy, though. Play music through headphones! Don't have sex on her bed! Just stick to your spaces and she'll stick to hers and they can all be cool, okay?

HABITS: She's a habitual dumbass, does that count? Otherwise, her days vary a lot.

HIDDEN TREASURES: I mean, she's got booze, but it's not amazingly well hidden, lmfao. Just like, sitting in the back of the closet. There is the matter of her stuffed bear, though, which she a) loves and b) hides whenever she's not there.

SLEEPING HABITS: Chronically late for class because unlike some of you up-with-the-sun assholes, Rose takes every opportunity to sleep as late as humanly possible. She's a night owl and would happily stay up until 4 every morning, if the school schedule permit it. As it is, she just makes a habit of fucking around all night and then being unrousable until about 5 minutes before her first class (if she's lucky). Also, she's grouchy in the morning, so if you want to ask her a favour, wait a solid 90 mins until after she's up.

BATHROOM HABITS: Not good at primping. Showers more often than she doesn't, and that's the best you're gonna fuckin get. Low maintenance on most days (t-shirt, jeans, hair ?br?ushed? = PLENTY) and an absolute disaster when she tries to dress up. Yeah, sure, of course extra perfume makes it extra fancy, right? Luckily, this happens rarely.

COMMON ROOM: She puts her feet up on the backs of chairs and she isn't going to stop.

suzy choi

Date: 2018-08-10 11:44 pm (UTC)
mentalmap: (🍩07)
From: [personal profile] mentalmap
NAME: Suzy Choi
ROOM: Senior Sword Girls
ROOMMATES: Pansy Tipton + Blake Hasenkamp

DECORATIONS: Su is a minimalist for everything but school supplies and skincare. So -- things are a bit spartan, but airy, curated and pleasant, with everything serving a particular aesthetic. She takes care of her things and has clearly chosen them purposefully. There's a yoga mat and a small collection of books (mostly for school, but a couple of special cookbooks/travelogues and one or two favored graphic novels). A large wall tapestry for a privacy curtain (usually held open, but, when closed, shielding a web of fairy lights she can turn on for coziness). Su's desk displays a massive ultra-utilitarian organizer for all of her stationery and pens. She's got a rainbow of notebooks and one or two little knick-knacks: a tiny Eiffel Tower from dad, a framed bujeok commissioned by her grandparents when she was a baby. Su also has a cork-board for photobooth pics, reminders, etc. It's probably the messiest thing in her space, apart from her makeup bag.

TIDINESS: Suzy is very tidy, but mostly because she's made it easy for herself. Everything has a correct place. Shoes in a row based on function and color. Clothes hung and folded meticulously. In times of particular stress or busyness, though, adhering to the System falls a few rungs on the priority list. You can tell a lot about Su's mental state based on the way her corner of the room looks.

STANDARDS: Suzy wants to get to know you and be friends! Let's all share our schedules on a dorm calendar. Let's have a Weekly Check-In. (...Tell Suzy your secrets and all your gossip. >:D) So... There's that. And there are some rules that everyone should follow, like quiet hours after 10pm, maybe. And taking turns with what few chores they might share. Helping stock a communal snack bin. ETCETERA. Su is not a roommate you can ignore, basically. She won't nag you or be on your back for missing curfew, partying, or having a mess in your own space, nothing like that, but. She's uh. Present.

PET PEEVES: Taking things without asking. Su doesn't mind sharing, but she hates assumptions. She also doesn't like having too many people in the room at once unexpectedly -- if you're going to bring a ton of friends over, you have to give her fair warning or she'll be a little ball of annoyance somewhere in the periphery all night. That said, whatever the roommates have established as rules between them are to be respected. If there's an agreed upon way of doing things, don't change it for no reason or just to be mean!! :(

HABITS: Su is... very busy. She adheres to a very specific schedule in order to achieve her various goals, academic or otherwise, and doesn't veer from it very far. If you know her well enough, she's comforting in her predictability. She does like to do yoga in the room, though, which can be kind of an Obstruction. She listens to soft twee indie music while studying. And, most importantly... Sometimes she cries. Like. Not all the time, but. When things are bad. Or someone said something mean or, alternatively, really great. Or sometimes during Finals. Not like, hysterically. But. There are tears. Suzy usually has the presence of mind to close her privacy curtain or go take a walk or something, thankfully, but if you're her roommate you have absolutely seen her stress cry over something ridiculous. And heard her complain angrily in Korean to her mom for like a WHOLE HOUR some weekends.

HIDDEN TREASURES: Airplane bottles. And snacks!! Su has a lot of snacks around. Mostly candy and things that can keep for a while without going stale. That's... about it. Boring.

SLEEPING HABITS: Suzy is asleep between 10:30-11:00 unless she has Too Much To Do, in which case all bets are off. She does wake at 6:30 to stretch and run before getting ready for class, which is non-negotiable. Despite this regularity, though, Su is actually kind of a poor sleeper; she needs an eye mask and white noise on her phone to get her brain to turn off at all, and occasionally has night terrors that wake her up thrashing or making noises.

BATHROOM HABITS: Su showers every morning before school, and occasionally at night depending on what else she's been up to. She has a 10-step skincare routine that takes up a lot of mirror time, and sometimes walks around wearing skinmasks before bed. Also, I hate this, but Suzy is the kind of person who sometimes leaves sticky notes up on the mirror or bathroom door with kind you can do it!! messages. :/ It's obvious that she's the one who does it, but she thinks she's sneaky. And uplifting.

COMMON ROOM: Suzy does homework in the common room fairly often, though she's easily distracted by other people. She will straighten it up and make sure it's neat if she notices it's messy, and sometimes leaves extra candy in there just to be nice.

survivalof: (014)
From: [personal profile] survivalof
NAME: Marty Geary
ROOM: Junior/Wands/Boys
ROOMMATES: Neal, Noah.

DECORATIONS: Marty doesn't have a ton of personal belongings and he definitely doesn't have a conscious theme. His pen cup is a cleaned out plastic Taco Bell cup. He has a couple of posters for bands or movies that he'll probably tear down in a month when he loses interest. He has a random assortment of tchotchkes he picked up because he liked them: a little Ares statue, a geode, a few tacky Haling Cove tourist things, a few scented candles. He does have a beanbag chair, a small storage ottoman, and some extra pillows hanging around. He likes for people to visit their dorm and socialize. Any other decorating has been done with Vee, and he has pretty much given her free range to do as she pleases so long as he doesn't have to foot the bill. He doesn't have a curtain under his bed unless she put one there.

TIDINESS: It's sort of an under-the-rug tidiness. At first glance, things look fairly neat, just don't open any drawers or the closet or look under anything. Marty isn't at all organized, but he does hate for things to be in his way. He will occasionally turn into a whirlwind cleaning force, only he doesn't necessarily accomplish anything useful, and doesn't really care where things end up, so long as they're out of sight. Where's his homework? He doesn't fucking know, dude.

STANDARDS: Generally, he's very easy going. So long as no one intentionally breaks his things, there's not too much that will upset him. He's fine with people borrowing his stuff, snooping through his belongings, or making noise. He likes visitors, and doesn't care when they show up and how long they stay. He's a sound sleeper. He's definitely not a proponent of a chore wheel. Shit will get done when it gets done.

PET PEEVES: As he is laid back, he expects the same of others. Don't get your panties in a wad if he borrows a pen without asking. Also, while he's fine with being asked to clean or whatever, he doesn't like being bossed around and told what to do. His parents don't live here. And he doesn't listen to them either.

HABITS: He eats all the time. Even considering the amount of exercise he gets, where does he put it all? He's a seemingly bottomless pit of junk food.

HIDDEN TREASURES: He doesn't have any embarrassing or personal items, but he does have an illicit stash. He's willing to share his if you'll share yours.

SLEEPING HABITS: Marty doesn't seem to have a good concept of time, and he's often casually late for things. His sleep schedule is also seemingly random to observers. Sometimes he stays up late, sometimes he turns in early. Sometimes he's up at the crack of dawn, sometimes he sleeps through his alarm. Whether he gets five hours of sleep or ten doesn't really seem to affect his energy levels. Whether he's asleep or awake often seems to depend on whether there's something appealing to occupy his attention.

BATHROOM HABITS: He takes a daily morning shower and intentionally makes his hair look mussed. Other than that, he's not super into personal grooming, though he's willing to go along with other people if they are. Junior wands spa day? Hell yeah, what is all this shit? Slap it on his face. He does wear a cheap, strong cologne of the teen boy variety. It lingers in the bathroom after he sprays it.

COMMON ROOM: Though he doesn't care about decorating it, he does treat it like his personal space. He'll lounge around, take a nap, sprawl out, be loud. Who cares? Quit whining.

GIF: So many of his gifs are shirtless...

Pearl

Date: 2018-08-11 01:23 am (UTC)
opalescents: (❄️12)
From: [personal profile] opalescents
NAME: Pearl Kline
ROOM: Senior
ROOMMATES: Kodi Hansen, Justice Bishop

DECORATIONS: Pearl's corner is a predictable explosion of band posters ranging from Nirvana to Stinky Nostalgia, that one band her girlfriend started last summer. Hung at no particular interval among them are pictures of her friends, every postcard she's ever been sent, and book covers of well-loved volumes that have fallen apart long ago. It a lot looks like she's shrouded in paper and they fall down quite often. In the center is a big piece of butcher paper where she encourages her friends and other various bedroom guests (wink?) to write down messages and doodles. She takes it home at the end of the year. Pearl collects little touristy stuff wherever she goes or knows people, too, and her shelves are lined with tacky snowglobes and shotglasses from little towns from here to Washington. (This stemmed from the fact that she always hated planes so much that it was really hard to drag her out of airport gift stores without a little distraction.)

TIDINESS: She's a mess, but it's pretty organized chaos. She doesn't get around to putting clean clothes in her drawers half the time, but she leaves them in their own laundry hamper. Her desk is a pile of paper, but there are post-it notes at weird intervals to show her where one subject ends and another begins. She also has stacks and stacks of books and a lot of sheet music, vinyls, an ancient CD collection, usually strewn on her bed. She tends to sleep under a pile of junk, as befits her station. She won't leave cigarettes or food out, though, she isn't gross.

STANDARDS: Pearl's very open and doesn't even use a privacy curtain to sleep. She shares all her things without question. These are the closest quarters she's ever been in and until last year, she didn't even really have to share a house with anyone, so she can get dumb about leaving her stuff in the public roomspace. She's very good at being told to get her crap off the floor, though.

PET PEEVES: PROBABLY just people nagging at her about how bad she is at space?

HABITS: She slips in just beyond curfew like a lot, and has absolutely perfected the how to get dressed/ready/across campus in 15 minutes routine. She doesn't like disturbing her roommates, and if it looks like she's going to be up much later than they are, she'll go bug the senior boys' room, because Eli's probably awake.

HIDDEN TREASURES: She does in fact sleep with a stuffed rabbit, his name is Anklesock, and she's had him since she was a baby. He sleeps under her pillow, usually. She ALSO has a stash of booze and cigarettes that she keeps buried in her clean laundry that never gets put away.

SLEEPING HABITS: She sleeps as late at night as humanly feasible, because she's usually accidentally kept herself occupied until then. She studies and reads in bed a lot, and the time slips away from her. That's why she rarely has any time to spare in the morning. Despite this, she's a pretty heavy sleeper, and gets good-quality sleep once she actually remembers to do so. She sleeps in on weekends a lot.

BATHROOM HABITS: Pearl showers at night and often washes her hair just about twice a week, because it's kind of a hassle, unless it's particularly gross after training. She doesn't often bother with much makeup or hair care, but manages to pull of Sort Of a look in 15 minutes.

COMMON ROOM: Pearl tries to make it as welcoming as possible and likes to host little intermittent jam sessions where she brings out some bongos or something and hopes someone else has a guitar. Please shut her up.

dallaslevy: <lj user="ollinsong"> (:| 37)
From: [personal profile] dallaslevy
NAME: Dallas Andrew Levy
ROOM: Sophomore Cups Boys
ROOMMATES: Gregory Logan & Mason Chambers

DECORATIONS: Dallas doesn't decorate space so much as he fills it up. He welcomes distractions from real life and his bunk feels cluttered with books, photographs and prints and drawings that cover the walls behind his desk and around his bed, and other odds and ends that he happens to pick up. Nothing he has is especially nice (unsurprising, since the boy never seems to have any money) and there's nothing cohesive about any of it. It's just the whims of a teenage boy on display. Fortunately, he is very aware that his things only belong in his space and his casual chaos is contained. There are cheap, plastic, glow-in-the-dark stars above his bed that his roommates likely remember from last year. Their brightness seems to be fading, though. [References: x x]

TIDINESS: While Dallas is entirely capable of keeping a space neat (anyone that's ever been to the home he shares with his dad where he does almost all of the housework can attest to this), he isn't particularly concerned about keeping his space this way. There's nothing unsanitary about it, but the area under his bunk is definitely cluttered and his bed is only ever made in the most half-hearted way. He has a bad habit of stacking jackets and hoodies on the back of his chair. It's a nesting doll of jackets.

STANDARDS: Dallas doesn't expect much from his roommates except that they don't bother him when he doesn't want to be bothered. And, if they can't take a hint, he'll just leave. He isn't particularly prone to share his things with others but he also doesn't have anything that's important to him at school apart from his phone, so he won't be especially bothered by nosy roommates. He won't complain about clutter but if anyone leaves out food or dirty laundry or anything particularly gross, he won't hesitate to pick it up and toss it on their bed to express how he feels. But, mostly, he's live and let live.

PET PEEVES: Roommates that try to control his schedule, his cleaning habits, or anything else will quickly find themselves on Dallas' bad side. Similarly, roommates that demand too much of his time or won't respect his need for solitude will definitely rub him the wrong way. He can be friendly and social when he wants to be, but that can't be forced.

HABITS: While not constantly antisocial, Dallas values solitude and he doesn't actually spend that much time in his dorm room. He's much more likely to be found in the dance studio (where he spends a lot of time), wandering, or tucked into a random corner or perch with a book. If he is in his room and he's not in the mood for company, he either turns up the volume of his headphones or just leaves. He breaks curfew frequently just because he likes being out at night.

HIDDEN TREASURES: None. Because he's local, Dallas keeps anything worth hiding stashed at home. And, even if he didn't, he wouldn't have anything especially interesting or valuable anyway.

SLEEPING HABITS: Dallas is a night owl, preferring to stay up late and sleep in late more than his school schedule will actually allow. Left to himself, he tends to get about five hours of sleep a night during the week and then sleep his days away on the weekend, though he can adjust his behavior when needed. He never has trouble falling asleep, he's a deep sleeper, and he often wakes up about fifteen minutes before classes start, so his mornings are...chaotic. He rarely gets to eat breakfast.

BATHROOM HABITS: Minimal. While Dallas is always clean (hair always shampooed, face and body always washed, teeth always brushed, nails always clipped, etc.), this is about all the effort he puts into his appearance. He lets his hair air dry with nothing in it, resulting in a somewhat unpredictable black mop that has good days and bad days. He wears clothes that look like they were already secondhand when he got them a few years ago. He isn't at all polished. This means that he's rarely the one holding up the line in the bathroom. He showers at night and after training sessions/other physical activities.

COMMON ROOM: Dallas isn't the most social guy in the world and he doesn't spend a lot of time in the common room unless he's got a reason (a visiting friend, a game he wants to play, etc.) or something catches his interest. It's not that he feels uncomfortable or unwelcome there, it's just that he sees it as a space he's got to go through to reach his room more than anything.

From: [personal profile] sassqueen
NAME: Mara Marsten
ROOM: Junior Cups Girls
ROOMMATES: Sabrina Lane and Nora Lee

DECORATIONS: Electronics on her desk, her side of the wall covered in decorative things that are pleasing to her eyes. Lots of purples and ocean colors, maybe seashells and tarot cards about. It's not horrifically messy or anything but it could be called cluttered to others. It's organized in her own way, though. pinterest.
TIDINESS: She's not a slob but she's not always neat. Her shit stays on her side of the room though.
STANDARDS: As long as it doesn't smell like death and they keep their stuff away from hers, she doesn't care.
PET PEEVES: I can't think of anything right now.
HABITS: She might go running in the morning, but nothing major?
HIDDEN TREASURES: Not really. They probably know she has booze, cigarettes, and weed hidden around.

SLEEPING HABITS: She doesn't tend to sleep early or wake early if she doesn't have to. She tosses and turns a lot, stares at the ceiling, rolls around, etc. in attempt to get comfortable and fall asleep at night, but it's not the easiest for her. Has nightmares but no one probably notices unless they watch her roll around.
BATHROOM HABITS: She spends maybe 10-15 minutes in the shower. Most of her time is spent doing stuff before and after showering, like brushing her hair and moisturizing and what not.

COMMON ROOM: If no one is around she might take over the tv or something. She doesn't leave her crap lying around or anything because she doesn't want it to get taken.

trailerparkprincess: (Default)
From: [personal profile] trailerparkprincess
NAME: Hadlee Loxton (I almost...put... Hazel Keating :c)
ROOM: Junior Coin Girls
ROOMMATES: Kyra Wilke & Eva Crawford

DECORATIONS: Hey uuuuuuhhhhh I hope you like pink and glitter!! Hadlee's space looks like it's that of a six year old girl that's obsessed with princesses. It's pink and sparkly and fuzzy, though most of her things are clearly pageant winnings and not just stuff that she owns. There are a lot of crowns on top of her dresser, of varying levels of ridiculousness, as well as sashes. She brought a vey furry blanket with her too. Her only attempt at privacy is a pink bead curtain hung under her bed. It's 0% privacy. Maybe 5% if you're generous.
TIDINESS: Hadlee's not messy, per se, but she does have a lot of crowns so her space can look a bit cluttered. It mostly stays in her space, though. She kicks off her shoes the moment she's in the common room and just sort of leaves them, there, so, uh, at least they're not all over the place in the room?
STANDARDS: Not much, except for leaving the walkway clear and not like... super rooting around in her stuff. She doesn't care if people borrow her crowns (everyone needs to feel like a queen sometimes, right?), but for most other items she'd prefer you ask. She doesn't assume she can just use other people's things though, at least. And just, like, don't be a trash roomie, ok?
PET PEEVES: NOPE, Hadlee is pretty easy to live with most of the time because she doesn't ask for much.
HABITS: She wears her crowns... a lot. Good mood? There's a crown for that! Bad mood? There's a crown for that! Please don't question it, thank you.
HIDDEN TREASURES: While not entirely a secret, Hadlee does have headshots from pageants (from ages 6-14!!!) in her desk. They're signed. If she's feeling particularly obnoxious she'll give one to someone. Have you ever seen glitz pageant headshots? They're horrifying. She doesn't advertise that she has a bunch, though. She has a drawer full of candy. Like. Holy shit full. It's not a secret, really, but good lord is it a lot.

SLEEPING HABITS: Hadlee's sleep schedule is somewhat erratic, but she does sleep pretty soundly so you don't have to worry too much about waking her up. She talks in her sleep a little bit, though.
What's the character's sleep schedule? When do they get up/when do they go to sleep? Do they talk in their sleep? Do they snore? Are they a light sleeper?
BATHROOM HABITS: On a regular day, Hadlee spends nearly no time in the bathroom. Sure, she puts on some, like, CC cream, and brushes her hair, but unless she's in pageant mode she doesn't make that much of an effort. She showers in the evenings, and, uhhhhh definitely sings in the shower, though she'll deny it. Even though you can definitely hear her. When she is getting dolled up, though, be prepared for a lot of perfume and 10 years of make-up and hair.

COMMON ROOM: Can try to take it over if she needs it for something (excuse me she's having a crown fashion show, here), but otherwise is pretty respectful of it being a public space. Except that she leaves her shoes there. Sorry?

Scout Thoroughgood

star_boy: (Default)
From: [personal profile] star_boy
NAME: Scout Thoroughgood
ROOM: Senior Swords Boy
ROOMMATES: Adam Ho & Atticus Finch Starling.

DECORATIONS: Next to nothing - Scout is practical and doesn't get a ton of out material things, so his space is virtually undecorated and is generally pretty sparse. The only thing in abundance are notebooks, filled with class notes, his schedule, daily habits, etc. Those are all very neatly organized, though, and are often put away. There's one framed picture of his family (dogs included, of course).
TIDINESS: Neat neat neat. Scout gets a lot of calming energy out of having a well-organized living area, so he keeps his things pretty meticulously. He never leaves anything anywhere, he folds his laundry into perfect little squares immediately out of the dryer, and his shoes are definitely off at the door.
STANDARDS: Despite wanting his own things to be very, very neat, Scout has a hard time asking too much of others around him. Part of this is that, unless someone is really messy, it doesn't bother him all that much if their things aren't just so, as long as his are. The other part is just that he doesn't want to impose his needs on others. All he asks is that his roomies be understanding when he sometimes takes up a chunk of the room ironing! He'll iron some of your shirts, too!! He would never take anyone's things without asking (and sort of hopes everyone else would extend him the same courtesy).
PET PEEVES: Uhh, like, don't asking about his sleeping habits??
HABITS: Scout writes down almost everything he does, and the time he does it. It's not necessarily clear that that's what he's doing, but he's obviously writing something down constantly. He's in and out a lot, and often comes back to the room late, even if he's just been in the common room reading (he'll be quiet, he promises!)
HIDDEN TREASURES: An eagle scout neckerchief and slide. He's not sure why he has this at school (it's because it gives him a bit of pride), but he doesn't really want anyone to know he has it because it's kind of embarrassing. Also, please no one look at his daily life log. He'd be mortified.

SLEEPING HABITS: Scout is not great at sleeping. He tries to cram too much into the day, and so, as previously mentioned, he's generally out of the room until fairly late studying, or reading, or trying to improve himself in some way. When he does finally try to sleep, he often struggles to shut his brain off enough to fall asleep. He's not a light sleeper, but he's a restless one, and he moves around a lot once he does finally fall asleep. He gets up early so he can run every morning.
BATHROOM HABITS: Showers in the morning after his run, and sometimes again at night if he's having a hard time falling asleep. Puts some stuff in his hair, and then is pretty done - very low maintenance. If you want to bully him into doing a mask or something, it wouldn't be hard. Always clean-shaven.

COMMON ROOM: Very respectful of this being shared space - rarely takes up much room, and tries not to get in anyone's way. Spends a not inconsequential amount of time there studying or reading.

Dustin Espinosa

Date: 2018-08-11 09:53 pm (UTC)
highercalling: (d002)
From: [personal profile] highercalling
NAME: Dustin Francis Espinosa
ROOM: Senior Cups Boys
ROOMMATES: Eli Gardner & Wallace Dunn

DECORATIONS: Very few. It's not utilitarian, precisely, so much as... not decorated? If Dustin is the oatmeal of people, his room is the oatmeal of rooms. It looks perfectly nice and also just like it came: standard bed, dresser, etc. If there's any touch of personalisation, it's in Dustin's desk. He brought a whole boxful books from home — some fancy leather-bound types and some raggedly paperbacks — which he keeps stacked on top. He also has a few tiny potted plants there, mint and basil and a wee succulent, which he tends to with reverence, if without any expertise.

TIDINESS: Not obsessively neat by any means, but he's an absentminded tidier and if you put laundry in front of him while he's distracted, he'll definitely just fold it. Even if it's not his, so sorry, Eli. Anyway, his space is pretty clean. He makes his bed when he remembers, which is a little over half the time.

STANDARDS: He's easy. Quiet in the evenings would be nice? He'd really like to have a little peace and privacy at the end of the day, but..... oops, boarding school, lmfao. That said, Dustin's no more likely to relax in his own company than he is in the company of others, so it's fffine. Mostly he's just sort of precious about his daily rituals and he knows that's weird, so he'd rather nobody see him, lol.

PET PEEVES: I don't know what gets on Dustin's nerves yet, but I'm very sure something does. I'm also very sure that he's unlikely to confront it in any reasonable way. Pet peeves are met with a smile; hell, maybe he spends more time around the person while they're doing the thing in an attempt to inure himself to his own annoyance.

HABITS: Ah. Early riser. On M/W/F, he goes for a jog, which he hates. On T/Th/Sa, he swims, and actually, that he very much enjoys. Afterwards, he showers, eats breakfast, and takes a beat to like.... sit and contemplate. His swimming takes longer than his running does, so he has extra time in those mornings, but instead of sleeping in, he uses the time to read or to write more in his journal. Sun morning and also most Sat evenings, he walks into town.

HIDDEN TREASURES: Dustin keeps his booze in his underwear drawer. He keeps his journal there too. One, he'll happily share and the other, he hopes no one will ever discover.

SLEEPING HABITS: Oh, ya boy does not sleep enough, lmfao. He wakes up at 5:30 most mornings and he goes to sleep at 11 at the earliest, usually closer to midnight. Wakes at odd hours. He's got a tendency to get caught up in weird dumb thoughts and then the next thing he knows, it's 2am. Also, he definitely sleep walks, so you're welcome, roomies. Just very bad all around.

BATHROOM HABITS: Showers twice a day, minimum. Uses two-in-one shampoo. Rarely takes more than five-ten minutes. If he's in the bathroom for longer than that, it's because he's being Weird. Essentially, he's not fastidious, but he does very much like to be clean, and with all that training, he pretty much has to hit the showers in the morning and at night.

COMMON ROOM: Dustin treats it as a place to host guests and, perhaps unfortunately, he'll open the doors to anyone who wants in. They're all lucky this is a closed campus or else the Cups boys could walk in to find random strangers napping on their couch. Dustin, meanwhile, doesn't hang out there much himself.

harmreduction: (🔰 030)
From: [personal profile] harmreduction
NAME: Atticus Starling
ROOM: Senior Swords Boys
ROOMMATES: Scout & Adam

DECORATIONS: If you didn't know he lived here, it'd be hard to tell he lives here. He does have three (3) potted plants in the room: a devil's ivy that lives on his desk, a small ficus tree that gets moved around depending on how it feels about sun today, and some yellow pansies on the window sill to liven the place up (not his words, but fully his intention).
TIDINESS: Has basically no possessions to leave lying around, which is functionally like tidiness. He never makes his bed, though.
STANDARDS: To be left alone when he's studying. To not be woken up when he's sleeping. General interpersonal courtesy. For the most part he really doesn't care what Adam and Scout do in the room, as long as they're not making it literally uninhabitable for him.
PET PEEVES: He does not like people borrowing his things, even if it's like a pencil or something. He also doesn't like it when people go through his things, even if they don't take anything.
HABITS: Reads a lot, usually on his bed but sometimes at his desk. He tends to spend more time in his room than the common room, especially if Scout and Adam aren't around. When he's in the room he usually has conspicuous over-the-ear headphones on to drown out any potential socializing that might be happening in the vicinity.
HIDDEN TREASURES: Everything he owns is kept in a single drawer of his dresser, with the exception of his school clothes, which are hung up. He has a bunch of bracelets, necklaces, rings, and other knick-knacks he's collected over the years. He also has exactly one picture of his mother, the standard glossy kind you'd get from a 1 hour photo. It's been folded twice and it's very worn out. It's usually tucked into his bedframe somewhere. He keeps cigarettes in his otherwise empty desk drawer, where they'd be fairly easy to find.

SLEEPING HABITS: Bad. He sleeps when he's tired, which is never the right times for him to be sleeping. Sometimes he stays up very late, sometimes he's in bed by 10pm. Some days he's up with the dawn to work out or go jogging, some weekends he sleeps in til noon. Very often he finds himself waking up about ten minutes before class because he didn't sleep well or long enough the night before. Frequently naps in the afternoon or early evening.
BATHROOM HABITS: Showers in the evening, after working out, and sometimes in the morning when he has time, but isn't fussy about it. Only takes him a few minutes. Totally possible to have 3 showers in a single day if he's not paying attention to what he's done already that day. This is the only thing that stops him from being completely unwashed at all times, because he does not do his laundry as often as he should. Also, he needs to get a better shampoo for his bad bad hair because right now he's using some kind of head-n-shoulders 2 in 1.

COMMON ROOM: Rarely in there, unless there's something going on and he's making an active effort to socialize. Very late at night he sometimes reads in there if his roommates are asleep, and he can very, VERY occasionally be cause hanging out with house dog Dakota.

Marzio Sarno

marno: ((*) my phone is more interesting)
From: [personal profile] marno
NAME: Marzio Matteo Sarno
ROOM: Sophomore Swords Boys
ROOMMATES: Shiloh Sadler & Luke Pokorny, the most popular boys in school.

DECORATIONS: God, I left this for last because I honestly don't know?? What do boys put on their walls. He might have like, a picture of Gremlin the Cat on his desk. But there are a lot more on Gremlin's Instagram so it's not super necessary.
TIDINESS: Marzio likes it when things are clean, but putting things in the hamper and making his bed is so hard??? He comes back to the room and kicks off his shoes and then he's just tired. Why couldn't he bring his Roomba to school?? Generally if someone points out that he's just left food sitting somewhere or, dude, can you please just put your underwear in the hamper, he'll do it. Just, like, begrudgingly.
STANDARDS: Look, just don't stink up the room. You're all gross.
PET PEEVES: Oh, I'm sure Marzio has a ton. He needs it to be quiet so he can sleep, and he likes the room to be at a specific temperature, and why are you up so late studying??? Ugh, studying should have a curfew. He does not voice most of these peeves, he just complains to other people a lot about how he's so tired.
HABITS: Oh god they've probably caught him facetiming his brother and yelling at him to put Gremlin on the phone!!! He has to sing Gremlin happy birthday!!!!
HIDDEN TREASURES: He paid a townie $20 for a gram of weed and he has it under his mattress but last time he tried it he coughed really hard and thought he was going to die so it's just going to stay there for the rest of time.

SLEEPING HABITS: Marzio likes his sleep. He's not terribly structured about it, but he doesn't like stay up late studying, and he will never voluntarily be all, "hey! let's get up early and go for a run!" He likes running. But he's 15 and likes sleeping more.
BATHROOM HABITS: Oh, he wastes some time in the bathroom. He takes a shower every morning, and if he has training or athletics or just, like, gets kind of sweaty during the day, he takes one in the evening, too. Then there's the moisturizing, the hair sculpting, the admiring himself in the mirror, deciding if he should pluck his eyebrows, fretting over his pores and what looks like a pimple on his chin???? What is that????

COMMON ROOM: Marzio treats it like a living room. He goes in there to bother some people, pull his sister's hair, complain loudly, flop all over the couches, and then he retreats to his room. If anyone decides to decorate the common room he probably just assumes they were told they can, and even if he doesn't like it then it's probably fine??? Even if it's something incredibly dumb??

upperhandsen: (+ BOA CELEBRATE YEAH!!!)
From: [personal profile] upperhandsen
NAME: Kodi Rue Hansen
ROOM: Senior/Cups/Girls
ROOMMATES: Pearl Kline & Justice Bishop

DECORATIONS: Bare bones. Her desk is organized to a T. There isn't much on it, and when there is, it's neatly-stacked school work. The wall is reserved for a comprehensive post-it system that tells her about deadlines and project progress. The door to her wardrobe is the one exception and it's covered in photos of her family and close friends, including postcards they've sent her and drawings from her siblings. So many drawings.

The other exception is the small Cutiefly and Stufful plushies in her bed. They're her twin siblings' favourite Pokémon and even though Kodi couldn't care less about the games, the toys remind her of the twins and give her the warm fuzzies.

TIDINESS: METICULOUS. No mess for roomies, shoes off at the door, and if it's getting messy because of someone else she'll just tell them to pick up their shit.

STANDARDS: She's fine with sharing because she's used to it but you've got to ask first, and if she wants quiet time she'll go to the damn library.

PET PEEVES: Just keep the common areas clean and for the love of God DON'T TALK TO HER WHEN SHE'S STUDYING.

HABITS: Kodi gets up at ass-o'clock for her workout regimen every day. She hates being covered in dirt. If she's close with you she's v v v physically affectionate and will never hesitate to hug you or hold your hand or tell you you're beautiful and brilliant and deserve nothing short of THE ABSOLUTE BEST. Also hey she never cries in the dorm or in public — only in the shower. (Obvs you needed to know this.)

HIDDEN TREASURES: Booze stash. Cigarette stash. Weed stash. Waaaaaay back behind her clothes.

SLEEPING HABITS: She goes to bed later than she should because she has too much work to do, always, but at least she usually sleeps like a rock. She wakes at BUTTFUCK O'CLOCK to go for a run, which is usually followed by strength training.

BATHROOM HABITS: Shower after workouts, always, erry day. She doesn't tend use things that smell like other things unless they were gifts.

COMMON ROOM: It's a common space but it's also not uncommon to see her surrounded by textbooks with headphones in. If she's on Relaxin' Hours, she tends to sprawl out over whatever seating she happens to occupy. This can include a friend's seat, or the friend, period.

Adam Ho

adamho: (:o 05)
From: [personal profile] adamho
NAME: Adam Il-sung Ho
ROOM: Senior Swords Boys
ROOMMATES: Atticus Starling & Scout Thoroughgood

DECORATIONS: Adam largely considers his room at Finchwood Academy to be a lost cause. It's much smaller than his room at home despite being shared by three people, it doesn't have enough natural light, and that dresser taking the place of a proper walk-in closet is a joke. But he does the best he can with what he has and he isn't particularly concerned with decor anyway. Because his roommates are both uncommonly utilitarian, though, he does take it upon himself to give the room some character with a plush black and white patterned rug in the center of the floor, dark curtains, a mirror stretching across the wall over he and Scout's dressers, and other small touches. He also supplies the room with a mini-fridge that sits under the windows between his roommmates' beds and an Amazon Echo, two 'necessities' for the three of them to share.

His desk is organized but covered with all of his text books, notebooks, reference materials, writing tools, and electronics, leaving little space for anything else. Behind his desk, there's a combination corkboard and chalkboard; there are photos (of his family, his perfect dog, and some of his friends) pinned to the former and he uses the latter to keep to-do lists and write notes for himself, often in Korean. Other noteworthy touches to his personal space include a grayscale and gold wall tapestry that can be hung in front of the area beneath his bunk as a makeshift privacy curtain and an expensive-looking black leather box on top of his dresser that's filled with even more expensive-looking watches, cuff links, rings, sunglasses, money clips, and other accessories. He sometimes has small ceramic or woodworking projects perched on his dresser or on the corner of his desk as well, but he never stays happy with his own work for very long and it eventually disappears....somewhere?

TIDINESS: Despite being notoriously unwilling to deal with things like sweeping floors and doing laundry, Adam does prefer a neat living environment and he picks up after himself/organizes his belongings enough to keep his section of the room tidy. If more than that is required, he'll outsource.

STANDARDS: Adam expects the basic roommate courtesies, like keeping the room tidy and the noise level to a minimum when he's trying to get his beauty sleep, but other than that he doesn't actually expect much from Atticus and Scout. He doesn't mind his roommates bringing people back to the room (though they rarely do), he doesn't mind them borrowing his belongings as long as they come back in good condition and he feels appropriately appreciated afterward (though they rarely do that either), and he doesn't have any real rules that he demands they follow.

While he complains about their taste in clothing and their apperances at times, he doesn't actually attempt to enforce better fashion conduct. Usually.

PET PEEVES: The fact that Atticus looks like a hobo and Scout looks like a farmhand. Apart from breaking the rules of basic roommate courtesy mentioned above, not much. He's a temperamental guy and he gets pissed off about a lot of things, but most of them don't have to do with the rooming situation specifically.

HABITS: Adam doesn't spend much time in the room because he tends to keep himself busy and to want to do things in their proper place; he focuses on his studies best in the library, he focuses on working out best in the gym, and so on. This means that when he comes back to the dormitory, he's either looking to socialize or sleep. When Atticus and Scout are in the room but are reading or otherwise preoccupied, he tends to feel irrationally put out.

HIDDEN TREASURES: Adam keeps a stock of expensive booze for special occasions at all times, though this isn't exactly a secret among his peers since he often brings it to parties or the aforementioned special occasions. Last year, a picture of Adam and Kodi featured prominently on his corkboard. This picture disappeared shortly after their breakup because he took it down, tore it into four pieces in a bout of anger, and...slipped it into one of his advanced mathematics reference texts. Because he couldn't quite bring himself to throw it in the trash. He's forgotten where it ended up but he'd prefer nobody else know where it is either.

SLEEPING HABITS: Adam keeps a regimented sleep schedule to support his intense and focused schedule during the day, going to bed around 10PM/11PM and getting up around 5AM to run with Scout and hit the gym for strength training. While he tends to fall asleep easily, he can't sleep well without complete darkness (prompting him to sleep with a sleep mask on and his bed curtain drawn) and he wakes up just as easily. He's semi-frequently woken up in the middle of the night by anxious text messages from Eli but can usually get back to sleep once he's attempted to help his friend through his crisis of the day.

He sometimes talks in his sleep but, fortunately for him, he almost always does this in Korean. His sleep schedule changes on the weekends to accommodate parties and bad decisions.

BATHROOM HABITS: Adam is fastidious when it comes to his appearance and he wants to be clean, neat, and put together as much as he can. He showers every morning after his workout and often showers again in the afternoon after training or other physical activities, he always has product in his hair (even when he doesn't properly style it because he knows he's going to be in training or the Shadow World all day), and he's always clean shaven. While he has several outrageously expensive colognes, his favorite and most frequently used is Gold Knight by Kilian.

He likes being pampered and will use hair masks, facial masks, and other beauty products with some frequency. He also likes to get manicures at a shop in town, though he constantly complains about the mediocre quality and his habit of working with his hands quickly ruins them anyway.

COMMON ROOM: Adam only spends time in the common room if he's looking to socialize or if he's participating in a study group that's meeting there. He doesn't give it much thought otherwise. When he is there, though, he has no reservations about putting his needs or the needs of his friends above those of others and he can get pushy about unwelcome distractions.
