               ᴇxᴘʟᴀɪɴ ᴛᴏ ʟɪɴᴋ ᴏɴᴇ ᴛʜɪɴɢ, how does he get roped into these one on one seshes with people before the night is young? like, the sun is still out — he ignored his alarm five times before blue had to rustle him out of bed herself, which definitely means if he checked his imaginary watch right now, the time would read twelve o’five or some other bullshit like that. pardon his french. he’s just grumpy and a little off his axis because initially he thought that this outing would involve more of their party. y’know, like caspian, riley, or even emmy. but as his coffee is stolen from him and is replaced by a sweaty water bottle, he’s quickly reminded that his love for whiskey got him into this predicament and that he’s stuck sitting shoulder to shoulder with blue until the distillery is in view and this bus trip is over. just ten minutes to spare. 

               “ trust me, you’ve tried jack daniels … “  he assures her. well, informs her without elaborating, while also faking the biggest yawn he can muster.  “ but yeah, no. we’re both distillery virgins, i guess — and like virgins, we gotta go hard on the free samples if there are any. especially since i came prepared with an empty stomach. “  he points to the body part mentioned, slapping it, before deflating back into his seat and enacting another dramatic yawn.  “ but i can’t do that if i’m balls to the wall tired, y’see. so let’s just trade it out and pretend you never put this water in my hand, yeah ? i know you meant to twist the cap and drink this yourself. “

𝐁𝐋𝐔𝐄 𝐒𝐌𝐈𝐋𝐄𝐒 𝐒𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐓𝐋𝐘 𝐀𝐓 𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐊'𝐒 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐄𝐑, bottom lip jutting out in a pout as she takes her own water bottle out of her bag and shakes it pointedly. “i can tell when you’re fake yawning, link.” blue replies with an arch of her brow, eyes twinkling as she moves to affectionately ruffle link’s hair in an attempt to regain some sense of normalcy again. “but i really and truly fuck with you for trying.” blue’s smile is cheeky as she reaches back into her bag, rummaging around again until she produces an apple that she offers to link proudly. “this will take care of that empty stomach and it will wake you up a bit. two birds, one stone. plus, no jitters or crash.” blue slaps the apple into his other hand as she attempts to stiffle her grin, leaning back into her seat almost proudly even as she struggles to open her own water bottle in the same breath.

“now, when did i try jack daniels...” blue asks with a furrow of her brow, nose scrunched as she tilts her head in thought. blue will admit that pretty much all of the occasions she drank in the past are foggy in her memory. all, but, well. one, maybe. but she was making a point to gloss over that particular memory as she chews on her bottom lip and goes through her mental list, fingers still struggling in their attempt to open the bottle. “i really can’t remember... did it mess me up?” blue asks curiously, brow arched with the innocent question.

𝐂𝐋𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐃 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐅𝐎𝐑: @emcrson​ ! 𝐋𝐎𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍: haunted nashville ghost and pub walking tour !

“𝐈'𝐌 𝐁𝐄𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐊 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐖𝐀𝐒𝐍'𝐓 𝐀 𝐆𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐓 𝐈𝐃𝐄𝐀.” blue says hesitantly as they walk cautiously through the haunted house, her arm hooked around emmy’s like a vice. she was tense and ready for someone to pop out of nowhere and scare the absolute shit about of them both, but she’s not sure that preparedness will help her any. “i mean, drinking and getting scared doesn’t seem to be the best combination. like what if they pop out and i’m so drunk that i throw up on them?” blue asks genuinely for a second before she’s turning to emmy with an arched brow as she adds, “or like, cry? i don’t want to subject these poor employees to that... like —” blue blinks a moment before her face contorts in horror, jaw dropped for a moment before she’s exclaiming, “god, what if it’s someone’s first day and i throw up on them and cry? oh, i’d feel so bad...”

𝐂𝐋𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐃 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐅𝐎𝐑: @linkoln​ ! 𝐋𝐎𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍: the jack daniel’s distillery bus tour !

𝐁𝐋𝐔𝐄 𝐈𝐒 𝐀𝐖𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐆'𝐒 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐁𝐄𝐄𝐍... understandably awkward between her and link since the graduation party. she’s completely aware of it, and yet she still decided to make a point of inviting link out to the jack daniel’s distillery tour with her. why? well, initially, she was under the impression she did so in an attempt to fix said awkwardness and get their friendship back on track. but now that she’s here in the thick of said awkwardness she’s convinced that her previous choice was made in a moment of temporary insanity. because that had to be the only reason that she would subject herself to an enclosed space with link where neither of them could  leave when things got too weird and absolutely none of their other friends were there as buffers. that had to be the only possible reason. 

blue clears her throat awkwardly as she rummages through her bag, determined to bulldoze through the weird tension between them if it kills her. her hand closes around a water bottle as she starts, “have you ever been to a distillery before? cause i haven’t.” blue smoothly tugs link’s coffee out of his hand, easily replacing it with a cold bottle of water as she glances at him and says, “it seems cool though. educational, maybe. and we’ll probably get free samples.” blue tucks link’s coffee between her hip on the wall of the bus without missing a beat, ready to guard it determinedly even as she thoughtfully adds, “you know, i don’t think i’ve ever actually tried jack daniels...”

"𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐍𝐊𝐒 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐓𝐎 𝐋𝐔𝐍𝐂𝐇 with me.” blue says shyly as she stabs a fork into her teriyaki salmon, peeking at riley across the table from underneath her lashes. she tucks a curl behind her ear in an almost nervous fidget, the movement revealing a splotch of paint behind her ear that she missed on her frantic inspection before running out the door. “i was so engrossed with working this morning that i didn’t realize everybody else already made plans. i mean, i’m lucky you even had time.” blue doesn’t see the need to admit that she wasn’t exactly disappointed that everybody had plans once she found out riley was available, because well, that would be incredibly embarrassing. but at the very least she could admit it to herself. blue glances between her plate and riley for a moment as she takes another bite, swallowing before she asks, “...are you sure i didn’t take you away from anything that you were doing though?”

𝐂𝐋𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐃 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐅𝐎𝐑: @pinotaqe​ ! 𝐋𝐎𝐂𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍: blue, penelope, and link’s hotel room !

𝐁𝐋𝐔𝐄 𝐇𝐀𝐃 𝐍𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑 𝐁𝐄𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐄𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐄. honestly she had never really been to most places in the states, at least, most places outside of hawaii. so she was excited for today and their upcoming travels, but what she was especially excited for was getting to know some members of her friend group better. cause the fact was, while blue knew penelope (or rather knew of penelope) she and the other girl had never quite been close. it wasn’t on purpose! as far as blue was concerned the two of them just never had the opportunity to get close. and what better opportunity was there than now? not only were they on this trip together but the two of them were roommates for this portion of the trip. it was like the stars aligned to kickstart their friendship, and well, blue wasn’t going to let this blessing go to waste. and what better way was there to start things off than—

“pancakes!” blue announces as she pushes her way into the hotel room, both hands heavy with plates filled with complimentary breakfast. her smile is sunny even as she struggles to close the door behind her,  “i’ve got pancakes ! get ‘em while they’re hot! or well, you know before link eats them. i know he isn’t here right now but knowing his stomach he’ll probably find a way to sniff these out like a — “ blue pauses in surprise as she finally turns around to face penelope, so startled by unexpected the sight in front of her that the plates of pancakes wobble in her hand for a precarious moment before she jumps into action. “oh my god, penelope, what’s wrong? are you okay?”

hi hey hello all, i literally almost forgot to do this but as promised here’s a little post with my 𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐂𝐎𝐍𝐍𝐄𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐒 for lil ms. blue !! if anything here interests you let me know and we can make it happen !!

WANTED CONNECTIONS.  what if we moved in together and had our own little garden. what then

BEST FRIENDS. i’d like two or three of these of any gender. just a really good core friend group that blue had throughout uni. i’d like if one of these was maybe her best friend during uni, maybe her roommate who she shared an apartment with during uni, etc along those lines!! lemme know if you’re interested in something like that 

EX-ROOMMATE. i’ll make this it’s own connection just in case but someone who used to be blue’s college roommate! they lived together for like four years and it’s honestly kind of weird for them that they don’t anymore? these two constantly go to each other’s hotel rooms just to hang out with each other! even if that’s just laying in bed together while they just silently go through their phones like,,, like they’re just to each other’s company and beign together lowkey feels like home. i mean that in the least sappy way possible dkdsdkjs 

EX SOMETHING. a situationship that blue had in the past where they were dating or maybe they weren’t but there was definitely something there. this could have ended on good terms! it could have ended on bad terms! this could have ended ambigiously and there’s still weird mixed feelings there! idk i’m up for anything okay i am always down for ✨drama✨

BAD INFLUENCE. but also good influence. like someone who convinces blue to stop working so hard and just let go! which is healthy for her!! but she does not want to do!! blue plans to work even during this trip so if someone could drag this girl out to a bar or pub or something to just have a good time,,, that would be gr8. 

A SIBLING LIKE RELATIONSHIP. i just think this could be fun and cute because blue is more of a mom to gray than a older sister sometimes and all of her older siblings are so much older than her that they don’t really have that typical sibling relationship yk? so just someone who gets under her skin who she bickers with. they are very protective of each other!! but they get on each others last nerve!! but deep down she loves them v much. 

MUSE. pls. someone who blue likes to draw or who she writes poetry about or used to write poetry about. this could be an ex muse who used to inspire her but maybe their relationship/friendship soured that could be spicy, and despite them still inspiring muse their relationship itself is,,, messy to say the least. or maybe it’s wholesome! every time blue sees them blue feels inspired to draw or write or do something along those lines and she has no idea why! she probably asks to draw them all the time!

CRUSH. this could be a recent thing or a thing from the past but someone blue just has a big old dumb crush on. knowing her fool ass she has created this whole narative about them in her head like she’s really gone crazy gone stupid fkjfdkjd and she just gets more and more infatuated with the fantasy she has of them in her mind. they could either know about blue’s big dumb crush or be oblivious but either way is good with me. or omg someone who maybe has a crush on blue! what a plot twist omg. okay i am done ✨ RILEY !

「 cherry. rachel hilson. cis female. she/her. 」 are you ready for the time of your life, BLUE DAVIAU? the TWENTY ONE year old FINE ART graduate from tulane is ready to HOT AIR BALLOON  in DUBAI this semester. close friends would describe them as IDEALISTIC and CREATIVE, but there’s really only one way to find out. get ready for what august has in store for you, BLUE ! 「 pepper. twenty one. est. she/her. 」

ABOUT THE MUN.  the 2000 claymation film chicken run radicalized me

what up, i’m pepper, i’m twenty four, and not to flex but i’ve had writer’s block for two str8 months !! but i’m hoping to change that right here right now with one ms. blue daviau so thank you for coming on this journey with me friends it’s gonna be wild. a bit about me is i’ve gone to the mall literally every day this week and honestly, i am Exhausted from it so i apologize for the mess this intro is about to be. i’m a taurus with a libra moon and libra rising so do with that information what you will. my favourite pokemon is mewtwo. growing up i had a massive crush on danny phanton and ben 10, like i loved those lanky boys that could transform to fight crime for some reason?? i can’t tell you why. also when i was a child i thought god looked like king triton from the little mermaid. alright that is enough about me, moving on to blue. 

BIO.  if you use my coloured pencils you better put them back in rainbow order

this is going to be the short version of her bio but if you want to see the long rambly messy version you can find my google doc/app here ! which i recommend you looking at for no other reason than to see how cute the little cherry doodle i inserted in there is. it took me so long to get that in there and looking cute. it’s baby’s first fancy google doc 😌 anyways sdjhdsjh 

blue was born and raised in hawaii! her mother, stormi, was miss hawaii state at one point and her father, reggie, was a pro surfer! however before blue was born her father had a surfing accident that left him in a wheelchair. he turned to art to try to cope with the trauma of this accident and the reality of never being able to surf again, and he even opened up his own gallery! his gallery became a tourist attraction in hawaii and pretty well known in the art community and after passing down her crown blue’s mother became a news anchor. so the fact was blue was the daughter of two local legends in hawaii and the expectations were high!

not to mention the fact that all of blue’s elder siblings were amazing too. blue has five older siblings and all of them are successful in their own right and in their own niche. they’re also all named after colours funnily enough. the daviau parents had big hippy energy in case you were wondering. 

so growing up blue was always just kind of the ‘other’ sibling. all her older siblings had showed their talents at a young age and grew into them pretty quickly, while blue was just kind of... there. she was an artist, but she wasn’t a groundbreaking artist. she could sing, but her voice was simply pretty, not lifechanging. she could surf, but she was average at best. to put it simply, blue was the daviau sibling who wasn’t at all special. which ironically, made her stand out like a sore thumb. 

blue didn’t mind too much though, at least not when she was younger. she kept to herself anyways. all blue wanted do when she was younger was read, draw, and explore hawaii’s wild life, so she had everything she could possibly need to be happy right at her fingertips. life was good for her despite her inadequacy, but that didn’t mean she wasn’t aware of it (and wouldn’t develop a complex about it later).

when blue was six though her parents decided that they needed to have sweet, sweet, baby number seven to save their marriage. they named that sweet boy gray. he did not save a damn thing, but he sure was cute. blue was eleven when her parents finally divorced and that pretty much marked the end of blue having any kind of parental guidance. 

long story short, both of blue’s parents went kinda buckwild the moment they were single and most of the responsibility to take care of five year old gray fell on blue. blue was the one to make gray’s meals. blue was the one to give gray a bath. blue was the one to tuck gray in at night and get him into his school clothes in the morning. blue was the one to help him with his homework and hold his hand as he crossed the street and honestly pretty much do everything for him until she was about seventeen. both her parents simply checked out on that front, and it the end blue was more of a mother to gray than either of their parents were. 

the pressure of having to not only take care of herself but also gray when she wasn’t even legally an adult yet, was honestly way too much for blue. her anxiety skyrocketed, and the pressure she put on herself only grew. the only way blue could really cope with it and calm herself down was by 1. losing herself in nature, 2. drawing, or 3. reading, or rather most likely, doing all of the above at once. using art of an escape pretty much guaranteed that blue’s love and passion for it grew, and with that her talent for it. by that time blue was seventeen she had a full portfolio ready to send off to any university outside of hawaii that would take her. because you bet your bottom dollar your girl was getting the hell outta there!

as we all know blue got accepted to tulane. it was hard to leave gray and her family behind, but blue set her mother and father straight before she left, ensuring that gray would be well taken care of in her stead and hoping that some distance between herself and her family that was so dependent on her (her mother never new how to cook so blue made all the meals, her father never knew how to handle gray so he was always coming to blue to advice, gray was absolutely lost without her, etc) would lift that pressure off her shoulders. 

it didn’t at first. the first few months were tough with all the calls blue got from home. that plus the schoolwork she had on her plate almost left her more stressed than before. however, slowly the calls began to fade and slowly blue was able to put her full focus in her art program, and later, her animation programs. 

sorry folks my brain is fried, we’re gonna stop here!

HEADCANNONS. on all levels except physical i am sitting on top of the moon with my legs swinging back and forth

Blue’s father is in a wheelchair from the surfing accident that made him take up art. His past as a professional surfer is actually part of the reason why his gallery is so popular though honestly, because the accident was televised and after that tragedy many of his fans and the public wanted to support him. He just also so happened to be really talented. But yeah, Blue’s father was really talented at surfing, he was even invited to the summer olympics in the nineties! But he was also the type to refuse to go because ‘surfing should be freeing, the olympics have so many restrictions, it takes away from what surfing is!!’ dkjsd he was that type yk? I also imagine Blue’s parents were the type to be on the front lines at protests. As it is, Blue is the same, very passionate, definitely has made some bomb ass posters and t-shirts for every women's march she’s attended.

Blue can play the ukulele really well and she honestly has a really pretty singing voice. However she can’t dance even a little bit. Honestly, she could literally break a bone. Really wants to throw it back though 😔

Loves to bake and cook because they’re relaxing activities with built in rewards. Learned to bake and cook because of having to take care of herself and her brother's meals when she was younger, that is if she didn’t want them both to literally get diabetes. As it is though, now that she doesn’t have to worry about her baby brother’s diet as well as her own, she will make a whole chocolate cake just cause she’s a little stressed and proceed to actually eat it. But she will share though. Catch Blue coming to your hotel room with sweets.

All of Blue’s elder siblings are adults now, but Gray is still about sixteen. They exchanged letters from Hawaii to Tulane and Blue always spends hours decorating hers and including little snacks and cute little knick knacks in them, despite the fact that Gray is now an angsty teenager and does not find these things as entertaining as he used to. Despite that, they are definitely the closest out of their siblings for the most part.

Blue’s siblings' names are Sage, Jett, Jade, Ruby, Rose and of course Gray. Jade and Jett, and Ruby and Rose are both twins.

The type to cry easily honestly. Also the type to carry other people’s problems with her. Like if you tell Blue that someone hurt your feelings last week she will remember and she will check on you the next time she sees you. Very empathetic, almost to a fault though because she’s constantly being careful of everyone else’s feelings rather than her own. The type who’s a good listener though. Also the type to give either really good advice or really odd advice.  

Art still tends to be her happy place, something she got from her father. Trying to find her own place outside of her father's shadow. She wants to get into the world of animation and cartoons but the whole task is a bit daunting. Is planning to work her ass off for it though! Spends a lot of time in coffee shops storyboarding and making animations. I think she may have a contract going on with a cartoon network of some sort, like they may have picked up a show of hers? Because I imagine her putting out some of her first shorts on Youtube and that might have gotten a bit of attention and led to her getting a deal for a show, so. She’s probably working her ass off towards that, and is honestly probably 1.doubting if they really picked up her show because of her talent or her father’s name, and 2.wondering if she can really do this.

Loves water in all shapes and forms. Since she can’t go to the beach everyday, the small bath in her tiny ass apartment??? Suddenly heaven. That said, Blue is either terrified of the ocean or loves it and I can’t decide which. Standby on that.

Makes a great coffee cake. Like it’s to die for.

Is VERY passionate about the environment. Is a pescatarian. Goes to the farmers market to pick out fresh produce. Loves to hike.

Always has the urge to sketch or paint after she reads poetry or novels. Highlights her favourite bits and has the tendency to read them over when she’s sad. The parts she loves are usually the parts that leave her wanting something.

Draws when she’s sad too. Claire Saffitz energy when she’s cooking but also just through life. Very friendly, but an introvert when it comes to gathering her energy.

Lives for libraries and bookstores, and has stacks on stacks of books in her old apartment. Loves old children's books honestly, like The Secret Garden, and poetry. Like whimsical and fantastical fiction with flowery words that just brings you to another place? Blue’s freaking jam. Falls in love with someone in fiction every five days, and desperately wants to be in love in real life, hence all the tinder dates and blind dates. I don’t think Blue ever has fallen in love though, like not really.

An absolute baby when it comes to the cold. Literally there could be a slight breeze and Blue will be acting like she’s suddenly in the arctic.  Any cold destinations will be greeted by a bundled up Blue’s Clues.

Made her first painting out of her own feces at six months old. Her parents proudly framed it. It’s probably still up in the attic in their Hawaii home.

Won her first art show at six but was unsure whether it was because her art really was something worth awarding or because of her father’s name. The award got her on the front page of the Honolulu Tribune but with her father proudly at her back and the title ‘Following in her father’s footsteps’ above her head. Blue just wants to find her own footing in the art world, and be her own person.

Keeps a journal and has since she was a teenager.

WANTED CONNECTIONS. i’m the friend that needs help opening water bottles. 

coming to theatres near you soon!
