BACKGROUND.

trigger warnings. implied child abuse, implied child neglect, implied alcoholism, implied violence, a brief mention of adultery, a mention of verbal abuse, mention of death, implied depression, & a brief mention of drugs.

[ tw ; implied child abuse, & neglect. ] Born into a world of devastation and loss, Alaia Kaplan's arrival into this universe was far from being a tranquil one. Instead of the welcoming arms and loving smile of her mother, the first sight the innocent girl witnessed was the weeping of her father. It wasn’t long until his tears eventually turned into angry fists and hatred shining in dark eyes. This was the only form of her father that Alaia knew, the only element of him that she could recall. From the instant she was old enough to figure it out, she knew that her father despised her. She knew that he blamed her for the death of his wife. Regardless of her upbringing, Alaia had remained optimistic and bright; both incredibly intelligent and adept. She was able to captivate others with both her appearance and her capabilities. Those in her company hung off her every word, often discovering themselves enthralled by a charming and sincere young girl. Regardless of her father's secured position within their community, she never looked for more than his approval and his affection. Though neither she ever received.

[ tw ; mentions of alcoholism, infidelity / adultery, & verbal abuse. ] Within the span of ten years, Alaia's father had found himself in the clutches of a bitter yet wealthy woman of upper-class. Soon, this woman became Alaia's stepmother and things only plunged further south afterwards. The woman drank copious amounts of liquor, ran around behind her husbands back, verbally abused Alaia and the list went on. She managed to manipulate her husband, able to further demolish any semblance of a relationship Alaia shared with her distant father. During this time, and within the blink of an eye, the girl turned hostile and indifferent. It was as if she had transformed into a polar opposite version of what she’d always been; metamorphosing into an alternate version of her former self. Once an upbeat and positive child, she became cold, less vibrant; void of both emotion and interest. She picked fights with her stepmother for the sheer kick she got out of it, rebelled against her father and found her once soft heart hardening as a result of years of enduring torment at the hands of her legal guardians.

[ tw ; mention of death, & implied depression. ] It wasn't long until Alaia was shipped off to live with her grandmother and aunt in the Turkish countryside. At first, it had taken the girl quite a while to adjust, to slowly convert into a portion of the person she was as a child. Alaia's adolescent years were a stark contrast to her life with her father. She was respected, admired and genuinely loved. Throughout the duration of her time there, Alaia was homeschooled, taught how to play various instruments, and how to speak multiple languages. She attended ballet lessons, joined art classes, held a strong passion for Literature. However, as all good things do, they come to an end. In Alaia's case, those few blissful years reached a rather abrupt cessation, taking a drastic plummet into darkness. She was eighteen when her grandmother passed away. As a result, Alaia lost control of herself and of her path in life. She spent weeks alone and aimless, wavering on her tracks. It wasn't until she and her aunt moved to New York City that Alaia's life began to turn around one more.

Back home, her aunt had been involved in the diamond industry, ensuring the quality and legitimacy of each rock she was handed. She'd allowed Alaia to shadow her, to study her methodology, and to assist under her direction. It was through this outlet that Alaia grasped the concept of gemology. Of how to examine precious stones and how to value them accordingly. It was a field that the brunette became extremely interested in and equally as intrigued by. Ultimately, in the end, the girl opted to pursue a temporary career in the jewellery business. It was during this period that a then twenty-one-year-old Alaia was approached by a member of a wealthy family, the type of wealth one gained by drug smuggling. She was offered the position of a quality assurance technician in their jewellery company. Little did she know, this meeting wasn't by sheer chance. It transpired that her aunt had connections with the syndicate, having brought her niece to the States to enlist her. It was due to this that the syndicate reached out, only too eager to hire Alaia as they had previously hired her aunt many years before.

[ tw ; mention of drugs. ] In the beginning, Alaia's role within the business was as innocent as she'd expected. She'd spend hours in the back, analysing gems and printing her signature on certificates. Obeying by every rule, following each order and never once questioning her superiors. After months upon months of this process, Alaia soon found herself roped into the world of drug dealing. Of smuggling little white pouches through emerald deliveries only to pass these packages through the appropriate channels. It was through this that she crossed paths with a client who, after many weeks, kindly invited her along to spectate an underground fight that he'd placed a hefty wager on. Immediately Alaia bought into the atmosphere of the arena, of the adrenaline pumping through her veins at the sheer vision of it all. It wasn't long until she wondered how exhilarated she could feel if she was the one in the ring, throwing the punches and sidestepping the blows. It was this passing thought that brought the girl back continually, placing bets and soaking in the ambience of it all. It was no surprise that she wound up deeply engrossed it becoming a part of it all. Thus, she trained as hard as she could, fought as hard as she could, made her mark upon the underground world and gained the respect of opponents and spectators alike.

Fast forward a few years and through her aptitude for fighting and her ability to outwit her opponents, Alaia found herself promoted to a regular within the club. For many months she continued to work at the jeweller's while regularly engaging in underground fights, maintaining a semblance on both worlds without permitting them to collide or spill over into her personal life. Finally, having grown tired and with a lust for change, she bid her time until the empire granted her release. Though she was no fool, packing up her belongings and venturing to finally set roots in Red Ridge. Naturally, she found herself drawn to Rogue’s Club where due to her strength, commitment and determination, a member of Valencia approached her. After some time, Alaia found herself promoted to a soldier. The promotion made sense and once it was offered, the girl seized the opportunity with both hands. All her life she had been determined and destined for greatness, even despite the cruelty of her childhood home. Nowadays, although Alaia continues to partake in arena matches every once in a while, her main priority is her duties as a soldier. Admittedly, it had taken Alaia a decent amount of months to adapt to the city of Red Ridge upon her arrival but eventually, she became well acquainted with her environment; never once wishing to go back to where she came from.

Throughout her twenty-seven years of life so far, Alaia has built herself back up time and time again. With every punch swung her way, physically and metaphorically, she has risen to her feet each time. For as clever as she is, she is just as resilient and stubborn. The need to prove people wrong is almost overwhelming but never to her detriment. While she continues to bear the emotional scars of her past, Alaia refuses to write herself off. She allows herself to admire people, history, art, music but she never grows comfortable enough that she is prepared to show even the people closest to her, her innermost, truest self. As a result of her upbringing, fragments of Alaia are broken beyond repair, lost to the depths of her mind yet deep down inside, the faintest sliver of that optimistic little girl remains. Was this the life she had envisioned for herself when she was a child with big dreams and wide eyes? Not exactly. But was it better than any alternative where she hadn't escaped the clutches of her horrid family? Without a shadow of a doubt. Where she is now is precisely where Alaia wants to be and perhaps this is the exact path she needs to take in order to fully emerge from the ashes of her haunting past.

WANTED PLOTS.

give me all of the connections from friends, frenemies, enemies, hookups, exes, rivals and everything else in between. added bonus if there’s angst or drama. if you have anything in mind feel free to throw it at me, i’m open to the majority of things and have zero triggers so come at me bro !! below you can find some connections i’d love for my lil ball of anger :

you’re a ghost from my past, haunting me. i think it would be very interesting to see alaia come face to face with someone who knew her before her arrival in red ridge. it would be even more interesting if this somebody knows her previous affiliation as a drug smuggler. maybe this person decides to blackmail alaia? or maybe they just want to know why she did what she did? maybe they are an ex-lover? either way, it would be exciting to see that kind of connection play out.

guardian by proxy. given her rebel nature and sarcastic outbursts, i feel that this chaotic girl needs some kind of parental figure in her life. lord knows, she needs one as she’s never had one. perhaps there is one particular person who knows her better than the rest? someone who knows her on a personal level and feels protective over her? maybe this person secretly checks up on alaia and keeps an eye on her from afar. really, this connection has endless possibilities but i feel that alaia having someone in her life that wholeheartedly has her back would help tame her wild side a little.

i don’t trust many but i do trust you. although alaia doesn’t make friends as easily as she did before, there would be one person in her life that she would deem worthy enough to confide in. this would be somebody that she could actually stand to be around and not under any false pretences either. it would have to be somebody that she knows she can trust 100% so for that reason, i would say they would have to be valencia affiliated. either way, i can see this person being someone that alaia actually cares for, somebody that she talks to regularly and spends time with.

there’s no friends like the old friends. this would be somebody who would have known alaia back in turkey or nyc. they could have been close friends or just acquaintances but this person might have known alaia’s family and possibly certain elements of her life when her father remarried. maybe they were a family friend or a friend she made when living with her grandmother. or somebody who knew her from her stint working in nyc. whichever, i imagine this person would be one of the rare people who actually knew the old alaia.

Hauteville House

The bold, eccentric decor of Victor Hugo’s Guernsey home speaks volumes about he poet’s world and his works.

On 31 October 1855 the poet, playwright and novelist Victor Hugo arrived in windswept Guernsey, in desperate search of exile. Banished from his native France for aggravating Napoleon III with his outspoken republican views, he had wandered “from coast to coast on foreign soil” for four long years, sleeping in hotel rooms, train carriages and boat cabins.

Guernsey, a little island in the English Channel and a British dependency, was a safe haven, though Hugo’s arrival was unpromising: his unfinished manuscript of Les Misérables had almost been tossed overboard during a stormy crossing from neighbouring Jersey. But Guernsey, a “rock of hospitality and liberty”, offered the welcome he yearned for.

Hauteville House, a handsome villa in the island’s capital, St Peter Port, put an end to the poet’s wanderings. He quickly put down roots, moving his family in – his wife, Adèle, sons Charles and François-Victor and daughter Adèle – and installing his long-term mistress, Juliette Drouet, a few doors down the street.

Although aggrieved by his exile, Hugo was galvanised by his foreign surroundings. Now in his mid-50s, he was more productive than he had ever been. “A month’s work here is worth a year in Paris,” he wrote to a friend.

After a morning spent writing, in the afternoons the poet would stride forth from St Peter Port’s cobbled streets to explore the wild cliff-edged coastline. He often swam in the jade-green waters of Fermain Bay or, closer to home, little Havelet Beach, guarded by Castle Cornet, Guernsey’s ancient fortress.

He poured his new-found creative energies into the decoration of his home, scouring the island’s antiques shops and taking home armfuls of French tapestries, Turkish carpets, Chinese silks and Delft tiles. He hired local craftsmen, sketching out outlandish designs for them to follow.

Hugo’s conflicted feelings about his exile are writ large across every inch of the house, now owned by the City of Paris and recently restored to its former glory. Stepping inside, you are plunged into the poet’s world; in the words of his son Charles, Hauteville House is an “autograph on three floors and a poem in several rooms”. Hugo’s decorative style is the polar opposite of minimalism. Not an inch of plain painted wall can be seen anywhere; every surface – walls, ceilings and floors – is a riot of carved wood, printed tiles and tapestries. Secret doors are concealed in tapestried walls, and cryptic messages are etched into the woodwork, designed to intrigue visitors and, above all, to make them think.

The Entrance Hall is a paean to Hugo’s Romantic masterpiece, Notre-Dame de Paris: a dimly-lit Gothic cathedral in miniature, with expanses of carved dark wood and a crypt-like calm.

In the Billiard Room next door, family sketches, photographs and portraits line the walls, including that of Hugo’s daughter Léopoldine, who drowned in the Seine aged 19. Poignant references to her are dotted throughout the house.

The poet carved messages into the furniture, much as a prisoner etches his initials into the walls of his cell. Ave (‘Hello’) makes a cheery greeting in the entrance-hall woodwork. Exilium vita est (‘Life is an exile’) is carved above the doorway of the Dining Room, while a giant double ‘H’ (for Hugo and Hauteville) in Delft tiles dominates the fireplace.

Hugo was a man not known for his modesty; his self-created motto Ego Hugo is emblazoned across many of the furnishings.

Elsewhere, the ‘meaning’ of the decor – there is always a meaning – is more obscure. In the Tapestry Room that overlooks the pretty garden, Aubusson tapestries were cut to fit the space perfectly, the wraparound pastoral scenes paying tribute to the omnipresence of nature in Hugo’s works.

Victor Hugo and his family outside their home

Hugo envisioned the ‘journey’ through the house as a progression from darkness into light. As you ascend the floors the prison-like gloom of the ground floor gives way to the startling brightness of the upper rooms.

The interconnecting Red and Blue rooms on the first floor sparkle like a jewellery box. Gone is the heavy dark wood, replaced by gilding, chinoiserie, damask and lacquerware. The dazzling decor and curated objets here recall Hugo’s theatrical Parisian apartment. He had long been involved in creating stage sets for his plays, and it shows.

There’s more stage-set chutzpah on display in the second-floor Oak Gallery. Renaissance and Gothic elements, Biblical and political references combine to create a disquieting space that was conceived as a bedroom, but became something else entirely. The monumental four-poster at one end seems more like an altar. The little skull on the headboard was a memento mori given to the poet the year his daughter died. At the other end of the room, a carved table flanked by three chairs appears set for Judgment Day.

It’s a relief to escape to the light at the very top of the house. The glass-walled ‘Lookout’ was designed by Hugo as a studio. The poet wrote here standing up, finally completing Les Misérables, an epic 20-year effort. He was inspired, no doubt, by the breathtaking view of the islands of Sark and Herm and, on a fine day, his homeland. “Any place for dreaming is good,” he wrote, “provided that it’s in an obscure corner and the horizon is vast.”

Despite fears that his “present refuge” would become his “probable tomb”, after 19 years in exile Hugo returned to his beloved France in 1870 and was welcomed back as a national hero. Finally free to roam as he chose, he returned several times to Guernsey, where the life of an exile had unexpectedly gifted him freedom of a different kind.

Brainwave has raised over £50,000 at The Greatest Show Ball held at The Mere Golf Resort and Spa on 16 November 2019.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

The black-tie event, now in its 10th year, saw over 200 people come together for an evening of entertainment and fundraising, sponsored by CPM-UK and hosted by Lord and Lady Fellowes, Patrons of Brainwave.

Guests were greeted by a drinks reception and treated to an aerialist performance from Show Lady, Debbie Nowell.

After the delicious three-course meal, there was a huge fundraising raffle, with prizes including return flights from Manchester to Bali, courtesy of Turkish Airlines, as well as live and silent auctions for jewellery, holidays and event tickets. Guests also had the opportunity to hear about Elsa, who is part of Brainwave’s Therapy Programme, from her Mum Jenny.

After dinner, entertainment was provided by Ring Master, Phil Reeves before Funtime Frankies took to the stage and guests danced the night away.

The evening proved to be an outstanding success for Brainwave, which is currently working with over 400 children across the UK.

Joanne Freeman, Brainwave Fundraiser and event organiser, said: “This year’s charity ball proved to be another great night of fun and fundraising. It was fantastic to see guests laughing and enjoying themselves, and also how touched people were by hearing about Elsa, a young girl who shows just how much children can benefit from the work we do at Brainwave.”

Brainwave is a UK national charity that helps children with disabilities to achieve greater independence. The charity does not receive any government funding and relies on voluntary donations to run its three permanent centres in Cheshire, Somerset and Essex.

Joanne went on to say: “We are so grateful to everyone who was involved in helping us to raise such an incredible amount. We’d like to thank our principal sponsor, CPM-UK; entertainment sponsor, Mike & Catriona Marshall; MC and Ringmaster, John Stapleton & Phil Reeves; The Mere Golf and Spa; Event Station for technical AV support, Funtime Frankies; Show Lady, Debbie Nowell; Northern Starr’s dance troupe; Salutions for supporting the marketing of the event and our wonderful Patrons for their continued support of Brainwave, The Lady Fellowes of West Stafford LVO and The Lord Fellowes of West Stafford DL. We simply would not be able to continue to support children with disabilities across the country without this generosity.”
