emerges frm a field of corn slinking in w a faux mink shrug dangling around my elbows n a strand of wheat between my teeth..... farmer eleganza.... hlo! my name’s nai. i am bt a humble ghoul arrived to haunt ur home. 23 n she/her pronouns n i live in manchester. fun fact my friend’s neighbour used to b harry styles PE teacher. i played delilah yrs ago as carlson young (n even cara delevingne at one point what the fk) which feels so weird n ancient to me nw bt i missed her a lot so decided to spruce her bk to life.... ANYWAY delilah’s pinterest is here n i’ll jst leap right into things without further ado

(NICOLA PELTZ, CIS-FEMALE) - Have you seen DELILAH ASTOR? LILAH is in HER JUNIOR year. The POLITICAL SCIENCE MAJOR is 21 years old & is a CAPRICORN. People say SHE is BEGUILING, BLUNT, CUNNING and APATHETIC. Rumors say they’re a member of CALLOWAY. I heard from the gossip blog that SHE WAS IN A REHABILITATION CENTRE IN SWITZERLAND INSTEAD OF DOING CHARITY WORK LIKE HER SOCIAL MEDIA CLAIMED.  (NAI. 23. GMT. SHE/HER.) 

HISTORY

their family is kind of modelled off the sedgwick family like old money n pretty dysfunctional bt all abt keeping up a seamless facade of perfection... with a pinch of the kennedy’s in there. her dad’s high up in politics n his dad before tht ws in politics n it’s just a long prestigious line of clones in expensive suits as far as delilah’s concerned. her dad i picture as like.... nate archibald’s grandfather in gossip girl.... personality wise.

for as long as she cn remember she’s found this cookie cutter white picket fence life boring. stifling. to delilah it’s like being hemmed in a stuffy room n forbidden frm opening a window. it’s all vry Rich People Problems i wnt lie bt <3 she feels everlastingly bored. All The Time. plus her family hs always been a focal point fr tabloids etc which doesn’t help this feeling of not rly Living but just being the focus of a spectator sport. they’re lowkey a bit of a household name so they get a bunch of scrutiny n......... well. new bullet point alert! cue a powerpoint transition

(self harm & depression tw) frm being young delilah always knew there ws sort of. a white noise inside her where everyone else saw a technicolour movie screen. it rly hit her at like 12 i’d say as she was jst coasting towards adolescence. it ws pretty obvious frm her behaviour i’d say bt her parents only became Aware it ws a problem when she stuck a fork into a socket n short circuited the power in the house. she got shocked unconscious n when she woke up she told the in house dr they’d called (to keep it under wraps frm outsiders) tht she just.... couldn’t feel anything. she’d been reading frankenstein (she’s always liked gothic literature) n thought it’d zap her to life like the monster

her parents got her on medication n figured that wld fix everything. they didn’t like to talk abt things and that was that. it wasn’t to be mentioned again

delilah’s parents r just very.... sterile. family is abt appearances. they’ll be all smiles n flowing conversation when ppl are around bt it feels like being an actress n reading frm a script. being a toy in a dollhouse

she had two siblings: an older sister named clara & a younger brother named elijah. clara ws always like.... the Dream daughter. did everything right. amazing grades. america’s sweetheart. LOVED by the press. did sm charity work. elijah was fine/kind of a slacker compared bt coasted by on athletic prowess (captain of the rowing team). delilah hs very much always been the anomaly in this idyllic line-up. middle child effect! altho having said tht she’s always ran w the popular crowd of her age group bc Rich + Pretty = Status. it’s all quite superficial n delilah’s attitude on the matter can b summed up w this photoset. having said tht there was Some merit in constantly being paraded around as “such a pretty thing” bc a few modelling agencies attempted to scout her bt delilah found that boring. she wants to b called brilliant not beautiful. her mother called this her “not playing to the advantages that god gave her”. with a tight-lipped smile and a “god forbid i use my brain”, delilah only disappointed her further <3

(drugs & ed tw) delilah gt pretty heavy into partying fr the sake of trying to Feel something. intense on the drugs front (coke n prescription pills). rarely eating. she got a silver broach of a swan tht she pins to most of her clothes n u can unscrew the swan’s neck n pull it out to reveal a little powder spoon. still wears this today. clara n delilah were always super close n clara wld cover fr her a bunch. making up lies n jst having her back to their parents if they ever asked where she was / she ws in trouble n needed to keep it under wraps. when delilah hd an article in a tabloid pretty mch like this one clara talked their parents dwn frm sending her to a rehabilitation centre in switzerland. they gt it pretty much scorched frm existence bt delilah kept a clipping bc honestly she thought it was funny hw pale her mother went abt it

(car accident & drunk driving & death tw) at a fancy benefit the astors were all attending among 4857925974 uppity families delilah wound up heading off w some of the rich kids n one thing lead to another n a couple of them gt arrested fr a coke scandal. delilah used her phone call to contact clara n fr once clara hd let loose a little n hd something to drink bt still drove to the station to bail delilah out n try n fix her mess bt.... skipped a red light n crashed. she died upon impact.

(hospitalisation & drugs & addiction tw) this made delilah spiral massively obviously.... she clung on by the skin of her teeth fr a while bt she rly was just getting quite out of control doing an extremely excessive amt of coke to get by at this point so her parents actually did.... end up shipping her off to switzerland for rehabilitation. they didn’t tell anyone this tho n as far as ppl were/are aware she was doing charity work with habitat for humanity in trinidad. her parents literally........... hired ppl to take photos of things there n a social media team posted them to her instagram account jst. the most elaborate lie.... it’s a lot.

delilah jst pretty much went along w whatever they said at the facility bt didn’t absorb any of it too much.... she did get sober there bt it was vry much bc she had no other choice rather than a want to......... she even pretended to “find god” while she ws there n memorised bible lines to recite w a coolly detached smile. in her head she ws probably thinking abt hw her mandated therapist cld gladly eat shit and she’d be happy to watch. it was just like.... everyone there was RLY hideously overpaid bt did they actually Care abt their work or patients? debatable. wasn’t the most healing experience thru delilah’s eyes bt... maybe it’d work better if she’d actually opened her mind to it bt anyway...... <3 cornelius fudge voice: she’s back. the dark lord.....

PERSONALITY:

nw tht her history is out of the way i’ll leap like a flea off a shaggy dog’s back into personality! aesthetically she almost ALWAYS wears white/cream. reminds me of the woman in white frm sharp objects. rarely she’ll dabble in silver or gold or like..... vry pale green bt.... always muted tones. usually white or cream. big white sunhats. white sunglasses. white pussybow blouses w a little white skirt n a pearl barrette in her hair. she even smokes white sobranie cigs tht r imports like it’s a lot she’s truly committed to the aesthetic.... paired w like. classic patent mary janes.... she tends to flutter around the place like a silk moth. likes lace too. hs a very put together image n even demeanour like she’s very lithe n graceful n drifts like a ghost which kind of contrasts w... who she is at her core bt in the astor family it’s all abt appearances <3 the only deviation from this is she sometimes wears dark blue mascara once in a blue moon n if ppl comment on this she’s like. idk what ur talking abt? glides away like a ghost in a haunted mansion n is never seen again.

very perceptive. incredibly observant. yrs of early life media training n being born frm politicians means she’s an excellent liar. she knows ppl n knows what makes them tick bt she’ll only use this when necessary. she isn’t a terrible person bt she knows how to b Very mean n will equip this as a weapon shd a situation call fr it. also more prone to lashing out since her sister......... she hs sometimes played chess games socially fr kicks

dark n biting sense of humour. rather frank abt things. VERY ruthless when scorned bt she isn’t particularly?? emotive abt it??? her bf cheated on her once n when he told her she slapped him rly hard in front of sm ppl he knew n then jst walked away. blocked him on literally everything. removed him frm the face of the earth as far as she ws concerned. had him blacklisted frm every event n told ppl they’d be cut too if they continued to associate w him. goodbye sir <3 u are the weakest link <3 needless to say he regretted it <3

very loyal to u until she isn’t. finds it very easy to cut ties if need be. once her trust is broken it is gooooone baby goone.... the trust is Gone. selective in who she cares abt

vry cavalier abt sex. she doesn’t sleep around hugely i dnt think??? bt when she does it isn’t often tht emotionally invested she’ll jst out of the blue very nonchalantly blow out a wisp of smoke n b like. so u want to fuck me then? cool. proceeds to get up as if she’s walking to leave n then looks bk n is like what do ur legs not work? follow me. n leads them somewhere

nothing rly.... moves her particularly. she isn’t very animated. it’s like she jst finds the entire world thoroughly unimpressive. it’s difficult to stimulate excitement from her. it’s like that hugh laurie quote where he realised he had depression bc “boredom is not an appropriate response to exploding cars”.

has a pet swan bk at home she’s named lilith inspired by satan’s offspring. lilith bites ppl if they get close n is honestly an abomination of a bird. delilah finds her funny n throws her bits of croissants sometimes bt even she isn’t immune to her pecks. in some ways they’re similar...... hv a graceful surface appearance / aesthetic bt a darker attitude beneath the surface

WANTED CONNECTIONS:

exes: the ex bf tht cheated on her n she got blacklisted from 94872347 social events cld be a fun thing to explore..... delilah wld be EXTREMELY cold towards him n honestly want him dead. wouldn’t show any shred of caring abt him at all she’s very gd at stoning her emotions n keeping them inside. hasn’t cried since her sister died as an example of how..... withdrawn she is from confessing her innermost thoughts n desires. maybe an ex bf before tht that she rly didn’t take seriously at all..... typically she just isn’t interested/invested in romance she’s vry apathetic abt it all

party friends: those tht run in similar rich kid circles tht she would have smuggled off with at fancy events so they could let loose.......... ppl tht r completely her opposite who she finds interesting bc they represent everything she always wanted outside the oppression of her strict regiment family....... mutual bad influences tht are heavy into drugs n always enable each other...... u name it!

hook-ups: she doesn’t have a HUGE amt of these bt.... maybe a select handful.... some she wld have hooked up w once n never again n just been like >_> if they implied they shd as if it was preposterous n she was thoroughly over it.... some maybe she’d find interesting enough to extend beyond tht...... none she’d invest in if she cld help it altho? maybe someone as an exception to tht rule cld be fun

friends of her sister: (death tw) clara was universally well liked for being rly sweet n well intentioned n she attended yates only two yrs delilah’s senior so she might have some connections here still somehow??? cld be angsty to work with

i won’t lie i’m rly hungry as i write up these wcs so my brain’s going blank n i’m gna have to sprint to get some toast bt <3 roommates, enemies, competitive friendships, resentments, angst, chaos, drama, strife, u name it n i am dwn!!!! hits post n takes off galloping dwnstairs

[msuowen]

hello hello!! this is super belated, but i unexpectedly got swamped with some school/irl things after acceptances so late intro is late. i’m excited to finally have the chance to jump into things, though! anyway, this is the bane of my life, owen kang. he’s one of suseong’s senior prefects, majors in healing, and is a part of too many clubs! on the surface, he seems like the friendly, reliable, big brother type, but his ~persona~ has been carefully crafted and refined over the years. underneath that, he’s just kind of a mess. 

i have his about and background pages up, but i’ll drop a quick intro under the cut. i don’t have a plots page yet, sadly, but i’ll list down some possible connection ideas under the cut as well! pls hmu if you’d like to plot! i check tumblr ims pretty regularly, but i also have a twitter (dm for @) if you’d prefer to plot there! ooooooor, you could just like this post and i’ll slide into your ims instead!

QUICK FACTS:

twenty two, 1/2 of suseong’s senior prefects, majoring in healing with a minor in potions

he’s also president of the herbology club, and a member of the swimming team, ancient runes club, and potions club! like most other people in his major, he’ll also help out in the hospital wing for that ~experience~ so he keeps a #stacked schedule

former hogwarts student - was in ravenclaw. his hogwarts self was markedly different than the person he is now (a lot more like, shy/introverted/quiet/meek), so if you know from back then... no you don’t ♥

like i said, comes off as a responsible, reliable big brother type. super friendly and personable, will help you out if you’re in a crisis. he seems a little uptight, but he’s an all around good guy who not many people have a bad word to say about - and works really hard to cultivate that image, you know? 

has stellar grades, always participates in clubs, consistently does well on his sports team, etc. vulnerability and seeming less than perfect is a no-go for him, so he puts a stupid amount of effort into stuff that doesn’t really matter in the long run

so yeah!!! he’s fake - is actually super bitter and cynical underneath his perfect good boy exterior. gets exhausted easily and hates dealing with people he deems not worth his time... which is most people. really heavy on the self-loathing and insecurities because he thinks he’s a shitty person and worries a lot about not meeting the arbitrary standards he sets for himself!!

keeps most people at a distance - like yeah, he’s friendly, but he doesn’t have many friends. it’s really hard for him to trust people and be honest with them!! doesn’t mean he doesn’t have like... a very small inner circle but it’s (waves hands) hard, you feel?

anyway just don’t perceive him and everything will be good

as a brief background: born in wales, grew up in the uk region. ended up moving around a lot in his childhood due to his dad’s condition. to cut a long story short, his dad is a werewolf, and the family didn’t always have enough funds to pay for wolfsbane so there were many full moons where his dad went feral and owen and his mom just had to keep him contained. after a few years of this, his mom (who was a poor muggle, rip) just up and left which meant owen had to keep his dad contained when there was no wolfsbane!! that left him a bit traumatized and terrified of werewolves though he’s ashamed of this... really ashamed

(it’s fucked up to be scared of your own dad, right?)

so hogwarts/mokseong is kind of an escape from ~reality~ though he still wants to help his dad somehow... so he’s trying to focus on researching a complete cure for lycanthropy. his dad’s condition is a secret, but most people do know about owen’s research goals and he’s super gungho about like #werewolfrights. it’s just that no one knows why! or that he’s secretly scared of them!

anyway that’s him. my bitchass son

CONNECTIONS:

people he knew from hogwarts, mostly because the dissonance between his kinda quiet/reserved image and the assertive, involved prefect he is now is kind of funny

friends... or more like shallow(ish) friends he talks to often but they really don’t know shit about him. maybe they don’t realize it and think they’re besties! idk, he’s fairly friendly and approachable, so i see him being on good terms with most people

maybe like (1) or (2) legit inner circle friends who’ve gotten to see beyond the mask owen puts up and like him in spite of his bitchy soul

enemies?? would love some academic rivals like yes we will get into a debate in the middle of class over this super niche subject let’s GO. more serious enemies are fine too - love some drama so if you wanna hate him (or want him to hate you), i’m down

club and team friends!! esp from herbology club since owen spends a ton of time in the greenhouse and takes his role as prez super seriously

exes maybe?? i love ex plots - can’t see him dating much but i feel like he has and it usually ends kind of messily because he’s either too busy or not willing to be vulnerable in a relationship rip. maybe some of them he actually liked a lot fr

he’s smart so people he tutors, or helps out with shit otherwise - you can come to him with the most random problem and he’s likely to help you out!

suseong folks i just want some cute house plots ): esp with younger students since owen is really good at taking care of people!!

little specific but someone who ends up in the hospital wing all the time and it drives owen crazy because he’s worried about them and hates that he’s worried (and okay maybe he has a cr*sh but that’s not important)

idk i will put up a legit plots page soon but please plot with us :’D
