[rainintheevening]

Okay, for the ask game, 3, 5, and 12 (because I'm evil >:D)

3. What tropes do you like writing about the most? (´▽`ʃƪ)

Hmmmm, what counts as a trope? Befriending the enemy. The Lost Sheep. Childhood Friends to Lovers. Friends to Life Companions. Redemption by change of life not death. Found Family.

5. One individual fun fact for each OC in the tags. ヽ(‘ ∇‘ )ノ

Oh crap, who all did I put in the tags?? I will hazard guesses, okay?

Aster-Ryn: She scratched her name into her lightsaber hilt: Aster-Ryn padawan of Obi-Wan Kenobi. It's very small, and rather crooked, and hard to find if you're not looking for it, but it's there.

Squatch: Names one of his kids Enn, after the name Anakin took during his wandering years.

Eric MacDonald: Has only ever kept one watch, a Swiss Tissot his Dad gave him for his 12th birthday. He's just gotten the band expanded. It has his name and sweater number engraved on the back.

Casey Johnson: Doesn't eat mints. Even the sweet ones. Mint flavour in things like ice cream or cake or when chocolate is involved, is fine. But not actual mints.

Addie: Makes up a 'happy birthday' song, for his own 25th birthday, and it becomes popular among many of the clones. Every birthday when the others all sing it for him, he sings along quietly for himself too.

Rae-Lin Jinn (born Kenobi): Nearly drowned multiple times as a kid. Would not stay away from this one beach with a hefty riptide. Drove her big sister batty, since it was Cas-Ira's duty to look out for her.

Gajeen: Loves classical music, opera, and the like. Once dreamed of being a famous quetarra player, but then his brother died, and he inherited the role of majordomo at Caminus.

(Okay, I did go check those tags.)

12. Write another line in your WIP (rude, productive, but okay). ◔̯◔

Done.

Her smile was small and sharp and cruel.

Okay, now I need to go really write.

Death of an It Girl

What happens when the glamour fades? Dive into the life of Casey Johnson, the enigmatic baby powder heiress whose dazzling public persona masked a world of hidden struggles and poignant moments

BY REICHAN PENDRAGON

July 12, 2024

Often when we think of the term "It Girl" some names that come to mind are Paris Hilton, Megan Fox, or even Serena van der Woodsen. But someone who is often left out of that category or even forgotten comes from one of the wealthiest empires in the world. Meet Casey Johnson, the Baby Powder Heiress. Casey Johnson (born Sale Trotter Case Johnson) was born on September 24, 1979, to philanthropist and socialite Nancy Sale Johnson, and owner of the New York Jets and heir to J&J Woody Johnson. Casey was the oldest of three children: Jaime Johnson (b. 1982), and Daisy Johnson (b. 1987). Casey was raised in Manhattan's Upper East Side neighborhood and resided at the penthouse at 834 Fifth Avenue. Although Casey was born into great privilege and wealth, home life for Casey for some would be a dream come true but to her it was anything but so. Casey's father Woody wasn't a lovey-dovey kind of guy, and because Casey was so unique, he didn't know how to show his love to her. This would cause him to often over-indulge her and even get her a brand-new car before she even had a driver's license. At the age of eight, Casey was diagnosed with diabetes and even co-wrote a book with her father entitled Managing Your Child's Diabetes.

While living in New York, Casey attended a number of schools, first she attended the private Chapin School, then the all-girls private Marymount school, and lastly the Dwight School where she went alongside Paris Hilton. After graduating in 2001, Casey attended Brown University for only a few semesters before dropping out after learning her poodle, Zoe would not be allowed to live in her dorm with her. After this, she struggled to find her calling; first, she taught singing to children at Dwight School, next, she interned at her friend and publicist Lizzie Grubman's P.R. firm, and finally got a job as the beauty editor for the Manhattan File. The same year, the magazine went under and her parents got a divorce. This, along with the constant gossip columns bashing her, made Casey take this as a sign to leave the East Coast and head to California. Once in Los Angeles, Casey clung to fellow socialites Nicky and Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, and Bijou Phillips, and would often be seen clubbing with the wealthy heiresses. Casey gained close bonds with the women and was even asked by Paris Hilton (after her sister Nicky declined) if she would join her in participating in the Simple Life. Casey declined and felt that joining a reality show would halt her nascent acting career or make people not take her seriously. Johnson would later call this the "stupidest mistake of [her] life". In 2002, Casey [along with Elisabeth Kieselstein-Cord and Nicky Hilton] would be featured in the documentary "It Girls", which was filmed during New York Fashion Week. In 2004, Casey's Beverly Hills home was burglarized while she was at an MTV after party. Casey would then place blame on playboy playmate Nicole Lenz for being a part of the scandal. Back in New York, Casey's parents became concerned about their daughter's constant partying and alleged substance use. Sale and Woody Johnson would then fly to Los Angeles to stage an intervention for their daughter in hopes she would check in to a rehab center. Casey didn't take this too well and according to her mother said the following, "I don’t need any help. I'm sorry you wasted a trip." After this, Woody would essentially wash his hands of Casey.

In January 2006, Casey, her then-boyfriend John Dee, and her aunt Elizabeth "Libet" Johnson traveled to Cambodia to visit Sovann Komar, the orphanage Libet had established in Phnom Penh in 2003. Sometime after, Casey broke up with Dee and quickly noticed a close friendship and or connection with John and Libet and began to assume the two were having an affair, eventually emailing her aunt on February 19, 2006, with the subject title "I’m sure u r sleeping with him." Libet replied "I know you know in your heart that those things you just wrote me are untrue. I really don’t know why you want to lash out at me, when I have done nothing to hurt you.… Please leave me out of your problems." Libet would later tell Dee about this in an email, writing "But I got a very, unhappy phone call from Casey, telling me that, "if I ever talked to you (or your Mother) again, she would never speak to me again." Somehow, someway Page Six obtained emails between Libet Johnson and John Dee. One email from February 3, 2006, read the following, "Your zest for life and passion for everything you do is infectious. I know we met for a reason Love, Libet." When asked for comment, Casey said the following "I think [my aunt] needs help," She told the New York Post. "I feel sorry for her. She's single. She's been divorced umpteen times. She's afraid to go out in public." "She was sleeping with my boyfriend, who I was in love with," she finished "An old woman with a lot of money is a very powerful aphrodisiac." The article was all over New York City by March 29. And this was the last straw. Woody Johnson was infuriated. He felt that Casey was using the tabloids to get revenge, and just like that, he cut off his daughter Casey from her trust fund which contained millions of dollars.

Through all the madness, Casey felt she was missing something, Casey Johnson wanted a baby. Her mother sale was openly against it and even told her "You don’t have your own life together, how are you going to keep track of somebody else’s life? This is not a puppy that if it doesn’t work out, you can give it to a friend." Despite her parents' pleas, in 2007, Casey adopted a baby girl from Kazakhstan she named Ava-Monroe, in honor of Marilyn Monroe. Kathy Hilton organized the baby shower and Nicky Hilton was given the "godmother" title. Even though she had Ava, her estrangement from her father didn't sit well with her. So much so that in 2008, Casey flew to New York with baby Ava so her father could meet his granddaughter and end the estrangement. Upon arrival at the East Hampton estate, Casey was met by her father Woody's wife Suzanne Ircha. According to Casey, Suzanne opened the door and said "What are you doing here?" After explaining her reasoning for being there Ircha told her that Woody was not home and then said quote "This is my house, so leave." to which Casey replied, "This is my father’s house and I’m staying here until he gets here because I want him to meet my daughter." After a war of words, Suzanne called 911, and around the same time the police arrived, so did Woody Johnson who demanded his daughter get off his property and "never come back". After this, Casey would make countless efforts to get in touch with her father, only to be ignored, and within a year, Casey would slip back into a dark place. Casey would then begin dating socialite Courtenay Semel, the daughter of former Yahoo! CEO Terry Semel and Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive alum. Semel had previously dated actress Lindsay Lohan and internet mogul Tila Tequila. Casey and Courtenay's relationship was very toxic and tumultuous and it was even reported in January 2009 that during a physical fight, Courtenay set Casey's hair on fire. It's unclear what started the fight but nonetheless, they stayed associated, I digress, by the summer of 2009, Casey was back to living the party girl lifestyle in LA and once again her mother Sale worried for her health and mental state.

In June 2009, Casey was scheduled to be hospitalized at the Cliffside Malibu clinic while her mother Sale had plans to bring her granddaughter Ava back to New York while Casey was treated, but none of Sale's plans went to fruition when Casey threw Sale out of her house, along with her luggage. Things got so intense that even the police were called after Casey told them that Sale was trying to take her daughter from her. Her mother said quote, "Casey knew in her heart that she couldn’t take care of Ava, but she couldn’t ego-wise and illness-wise say: 'I know I can’t take care of her like she needs to be cared for …'" That year in August, Casey was hospitalized for her diabetes. It was alleged that Casey's alcohol and drug use was preventing her from properly caring for her diabetes. This was when the decision was made to give her daughter Ava to family friend Kim Richards when she checked into rehab at Cliffside Malibu. Allegedly Casey became enraged with the fact that Ava began calling Richards "mommy". Johnson then sent her friend British socialite and model Jasmine Lennard to go retrieve Ava. Casey would be hospitalized two more times throughout summer and early fall. Sale Johnson would then make the decision to cut off her daughter and would not allow her daughter to access any money unless she went to rehab. Sale then gained custody of Ava and brought her to New York. At the time, Casey was renting her home in Los Angeles and when her mother cut her off, she could no longer pay her bills and was only getting deeper into debt, her power was shut off and she hid her Porsche in her garage so it wouldn't be repossessed, "It was like Grey Gardens" one source said, "There are dirty dishes everywhere and rotting food. There is graffiti on the walls. The pool looks like a swamp." In November 2009, Casey's mental state took a turn for the worse when she attempted to take her own life. She sent a text to ex-girlfriend Courtenay Semel saying "I've taken a lot of pills, and I’m going to sleep forever." Semel called an ambulance and upon arrival found Johnson unconscious. Casey was then admitted into intensive care for three days. Days after her release from intensive care, Johnson broke into her friend Jasmine Lennard's house and evidently stole clothes, jewelry, and lingerie. Lennard received a tip from Courtenay Semel who told Jasmine to call the police after seeing Casey wearing Jasmine's clothes when Casey was getting into bed with her. When the authorities arrived, they recovered all of Lennard's items and Casey was ultimately arrested for grand theft and held on $20,000 bail. When asked for comment, Lennard stated the following, "I tried to get her off drugs and alcohol. I tried to get her into a twelve-step program. I tried to help take care of her daughter. I’ve given her money." She continued, "I am the only person who helped this girl, and I believe she was obsessed with me, and thinks in her mind we had some kind of affair." she closed with, "She breaks into my Hollywood apartment, masturbates in my bed, has a shower in my bathroom, takes everything in my apartment" before vowing to "teach [Casey] a lesson".

After feeling betrayed by Courtenay Semel, Casey turned to Courtenay's ex-girlfriend, Tila Tequila. According to Tila, Casey showed up a mess and needed someone to talk to, but not even a full month later, Tila revealed via Utream she was engaged to Casey, sporting an alleged 17-carat ring, which Courtenay Semel claimed was the same fake ring Casey had privately proposed to her with at the Sundance Film Festival. On December 29, 2009, Casey and Tila would allegedly get into a big fight. Casey would leave her dogs at Tila's Studio City house while she stayed in a friend's guest house. Casey would spend New Years alone. On January 4, 2010, Casey Johnson was found dead by a housekeeper. The official cause of death was ruled diabetic ketosis. She was buried on January 12, 2010, at Trinity-All Saints' Cemetery in Princeton, New Jersey. She was 30 years old.

Jurassic World Chaos Theory OC short fic:

Title: Changes

—————————————————————————

At Casey’s Lab in Costa Rica

Casey sobbed as he sulked on the couch, looking at the picture of Brooklynn. He had visited America for a bit to visit Yasmina and Sammy but Brooklynn had called him in when Darius was supposed to help him with something…

…And it was too late when he and Darius saw Brooklynn’s blood on the rock…and the Allosaurus…

He looked at the picture of Brooklynn one more time and kept crying. Brooklynn had so much left with him to do, even with the whole break-up she had and her staying at Darius’ for a bit. To be honest, Casey had feelings for Brooklynn too but was too scared to tell her anything.

He looked at the picture a third time and stood from the couch. He looked at a bottle of pink hair dye and grabbed it. “Brooklynn…” he spoke out in tears. “…I’m gonna fix this…”

He walked to his bathroom, put on a pair of gloves, and sighed as he looked at himself in the mirror. He hovered the bottle over his head and began to pour it into his hair. He took a few breaths as he felt the liquid in his hair. He then leaned his head down and started scrubbing the dye all over.

Within minutes, his hair was completely pink, remembering Brooklynn’s signature hair color. He sighed, taking a look at his new look, but something still didn’t feel right. Brooklynn was gone and he was still there, standing in that bathroom, not doing a goddamn thing about it.

He needed to know who was behind this. Who wanted Brooklynn dead. He couldn’t shake off the feeling that the Allosaurus that killed her was sent there by something…or someone…

“Brooklynn…I’m gonna fix this.” Casey repeated over and over.

He grabbed his backpack and started getting a bunch of supplies into it. He grabbed his passport and then grabbed his shotgun that he kept well hidden from guests who would visit his lab uninvited. He also packed a photo of him and the Camp Fam, namely as a reminder of why he was doing this.

He stepped out of the lab, not caring that the raining was pouring and thunder was crashing. He entered his car and sighed. He picked up his phone and he sighed in relief as a familiar British voice said, “‘Ello?”

“Mae?” Casey asked.

“Casey! Bloody marvelous that you called me! How are you doing, love?”

“Mae…You may have heard from Ben about Brooklynn…and I’m going to figure out how and why this happened.”

“Casey, I know this isn’t easy but this won’t bring Brooklynn back—“

“If I don’t do this, then who? If not now, when? I bet when April died, you would want to know who would do this…”

He heard Mae’s voice sigh and her voice spoke, “Okay, love. I can’t stop you from doing this, can’t I?”

“…….No……”

“Then what do you need?”

“I’m gonna need one of your jets. What do you got that’s fast and to America?”

“Hmm…I’ll see what I can do.”

“Thank you, Mae.”

“You’re welcome, Casey. Just don’t get too carried away.”

“I won’t.”

He hung up and began to drive to the airport. He saw the glowing lights of the night-ridden city and sighed. He then spoke out one last time, “Brooklynn…I’m gonna fix this…I’m gonna stop whatever caused this…”

Yes, this is a teaser for a new design for my Casey OC in release for Chaos Theory the other day.

From Person to Publicist: The Evolution of Celebrity and Image

The layperson’s first brush with everyday perfection came in the ’90s when the daughters of New York City’s richest power players decided to make their life consumable to the average person. Rather than hiding inside of mansions like the millionaires of yore, these women—such as Paris Hilton, Casey Johnson, and Olivia Palermo—were seen both at red carpet events and blackout drunk at nightclubs.…

Not Dead Yet (prod. Casey Johnson & David Windsor).

ABC’s ghost workplace sitcom inspired by British rom-com author’s novel Confessions of a Forty-Something F**k Up is shockingly conventional despite the high-concept buy-in of a journalist relegated to newspaper obituary writer seeing the spirits of the recently deceased individuals she’s assigned to memorialize with no explanation of this very unusual phenomenon.

A very chipper Gina Rodriguez stars as the aforementioned (not quite forty) “f**k up” in a mostly winning comic performance as a near middle-aged woman starting all over again from the bottom opposite her co-worker bestie (Hannah Simone). Despite the inconsistencies, there’s just enough charm in the ensemble's performances to entice viewers.
