CayetanoAll right. I believe this will be my artiste of the group, since I don't have one  Cayetano has this big black hardcover sketchbook, and there are a lot of nice sketches done, and most are colored in as well. I think his favorite sketches are like landscapes and ...cityskapes? lol. Like the outside patio area of a cafe, or the rooftops of Arcadia or.. stuff like that. Something like this: www.flickr.com/photos/olohok/75342807/ www.media.eng.hokudai.ac.jp/~aoki/KNgalleryParis.jpgAnd then he does paintings as well, but again, he doesn't want anyone to know about, so he buys those canvases and paints in private lol. And he does nice watercolor paintings, so something like this: www.flickr.com/photos/olohok/176596231/in/set-1485579/www.flickr.com/photos/olohok/176596148/in/set-1485579/This can be a painting he's currently working on: www.flickr.com/photos/aburami/748915070/Anyway, yeah. So Cayetano is an artiste, and he's very good, and he's gone to exhibits and showcases before, and has sold a few pieces  I'm not sure why he's secretive about it, though. Maybe he thinks it's one more weight against him on the sensitivity scale. He doesn't want his dad or brothers to think he's just a lost cause who's too sensitive and girly. Other than art, he likes the opera and theatre  And he likes listening to the classical music that ties into the former ha. He's fashion savvy too. I guess he wears snug-fitted jeans ha and shirts, and is always well groomed and pretty looking. Mmm.. yep. Oh, what does he read.. most likely classical literature. Like those Penguin Book Classics lol. Dickens, Dostoevsky, Twain...all the literary bigwigs of like.. lifetimes ago. He's easily offended and hurt, being so sensitive, and he's also really soft spoken too so he has a hard time standing up for himself.. like when AJ finally got his way about the strip club thing ha. Uhm.. yes!

I've been thinking about Sakura for a bit, so I figured I wold write a bit about her here. I think at some point in that story of hers where she wrote a bunch of journal entries, she mentions having a scorpion tattoo. So I was thinking today about where the tattoo would be, and I've decided that it will be kind of in the right shoulderblade area. Like in Heroes, how Nikki has that S symbol in the same area. At first, the tattoo was just going to be the traditional scropion insect.. but then I found this cool rendering: and I really liked it, so I think it will be this instead hehe. It's probably not that size, though. I'd imagine maybe 75% that size rather. I've also in the past mentioned Sakura's black leather backpack, and it looks something like this: All right, what else... I suppose I can go into favorites. She's a Chinese/Tai food type of person. Maybe she picked that one up from Daemon and Araxie lol. Maybe she likes Indian food, too. So... rice is in both cuisines.. I'll make rice her favorite food lol. Brown, white, yellow..she likes it all. And drinks... she likes blue slurpies from 7-11 lol. |

All right, so I totally forgot Rafael was in his first year at Bedford College! Geez! Anyway, so when he does eventually rush during his second year, this will be the fraternity he ends up joining: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_Sigma_Phi He'll be an Alpha Sig hehe. He might be a little distant from Jake and other friends at first, because pledging is taking a toll on him, and because he feels like he has to hang out with his brothers more. Some of them he likes, and some of them he probably wouldn't ever be friends with outside of the chapter lol. Let's see...he's doing well in his classes. Probably was on the Dean's List and President's List all year.. oh Raf. He's acclimating well. Uuhmm.. yeah. I don't know what else to say about the boy! lol Hayden... I was thinking about stuff Hayden might have in his room today. I think he might collect superhero comics, so he probably has series of Spiderman, Superman, Batman, Fantastic Four, and X-Men for sure. And I'm sure he has the DVD's for all these superheroes as well lol. He obviously has game consoles...uhm, X Box I guess is what kids are using these days. And he'll have wii, too, of course. Tons of video games, of course. He has one of those silver trick bikes, and at least three very colorful skateboards. I'm sure his room is very messy, so he has clothes all over the place, and other things. Chief's toys, comic books, shoes, etc etc. I guess he wears Pac Sun, Hollister, American Eagle, etc etc. Probably the preppy clothes the cheerleaders picked out for him mostly, but he still tries to give it a Skater edge lol... so Vans shoes, and the baggy jeans, and long sleeves under his shirt, and of course his hair long lol. He probably has a few hackeysacks... hm, what else. Posters? Yeah, sure.. He has posters all over his walls... of bands, yes. Uhm.. what would he listen to....Green Day? Good Charlotte? lol. Whatever's skater-ish. Ooo, maybe he has a celeb-crush on Avril Lavigne haha. So he can have posters of her up... but not like.. sk@nky posters of her... posters of her being tomboyish and punky. Uuuhmm...anything else... hm. Most of his movies are comedies... Ferris Bueller, Zoolander, Adam Sandler, Ben Stiller, all that stuff... and I'm sure he has at least one season of Ghost Hunters, just for Rosalyn lol. Aaand.. what else. Maybe he has a bulletin board by his desk, and he has a picture of him and Aiden tacked to it, and maybe a picture of him and Jordan too. woot woot. And that's all I can think of for now! (oh, and of course a picture of his parents on his nightstand) |

Charles Hainsworth.
I can't believe Charles is 68! Oh Well, if John McCain can look good at seventy-whatever, I don't see why getting old has to affect Charles hehe. Anyway, this is a blurb about his family life.
Charles has been married two times. The first time, was in 1963, when he was only twenty-three years old. (Prior to this, her served in the Vietnam War for two years between 1960 and 1962. He was sent home because of an injury) It was kind of like a "Notebook" romance. Charles came from a working-class family in Britain, and perhaps did construction work or mining or something like that. He met this debutante from the upper class, they fell hard in love, defied everyone they knew and got married. All within a span of three months ha. After maybe two years, the novelty wore off. Plus, the girl missed her aristocrat life too much. Maybe some old flame proposed to her, and she took off with him. Last Charles heard, she was a mom of six and a trophy wife. Her new husband had a penchant for affairs, too.
Charles felt depressed, naturally, and also felt like he had nothing going for him. So, with his life savings, he decided to move to the States and find work there. He did move, but instead of finding work, he became infatuated with an idea that was new at that time: the Peace Corps. He applied, and got in. His first assignment was in 1967, in Africa. He spent the next eight years going from one project to another within the Peace Corps (Europe, Africa, and Asia mainly). In 1975, at the age of 35, he pursued an entry-level position within the French government that a mentor had referred him to. He ascended the ranks, and eventually became a diplomat at 38.
A certain assignment this same year (1978), placed him in Russia. This is where he would meet his second wife. In 1980, they married, and at the assignment's completion, relocated to France. A child was born nine months later (Charles' first and only child). From the start, wife #2 hated France. She lived in Russia all her life and never wanted to move in the first place. This became the foundation for the arguments she and Charles would have almost daily. Another source of argumentation came from Charles' workaholic ways. By 1983, he was working with the secret service of France, and was hardly ever home.
One day, Charles came home and saw that his wife and three year old son were nowhere to be found. He tried to contact his wife for months, and eventually tapped into the agency's resources to track her down. Finally having a number, he called her and asked what she was thinking. The wife calmly informed him that she was back in Russia, and that she would raise her son to believe another man was his father. Charles tried tirelessly to locate the two within Russia, but to no avail. Neither the agency nor private detectives have had much success. Sometimes he thinks the Russian mafia is protecting them; sometimes he wonders if they're even still alive.
After this bitter divorce, and the loss of his son, Charles became completely consumed with his work. He's never held any interest in pursuing relationships, and it was perhaps his own bitterness that compelled him to establish the notorious "no dating co-workers" policy. Other than that, he displays no signs of bitterness, and has never spoken with another agent about the details of his love life (he may have hinted at a few things here and there to Felix). Also, losing touch with his son makes him feel more protective of certain agents within range of his son's age (Reid, Searlait, and some of the others).
So... that's Charles Hainsworth for you. ((Perhaps one day we could make up his son and finding him and all that mambo jambo. If you ever use that picture of Harrison Ford yelling, maybe that could even work haha.))

I like the costumes! Hehe ;D I'M FINALLY AND OFFICIALLY DONE with Sakura's MySpace! You HAVE to check out her photo album. I added a lot of cool things. 1. I decided that her bedroom walls would be grafitti-ed (as would be many bedroom accessories). It's so awesome. Check out the pictures! I don't know if she did it herself or what. She seems to be very artsy as of late, so it's quite possible. I remember in her high school story, she mentions that art is the only class she's not failing, so it's possible! 2. She's a little bit rough around the edges, of course. I just didn't know how much, ha. But now I do. So pictures of requisite tattoo's and piercings are also in the album. 3. Dramatic transition...I also added dollhouses, ha. I think one of Sakura's biggest secrets is the fact that she enjoys arts & crafts, especially building doll houses of all things. Her mom used to make her those spool dolls when she was little, and building doll houses was sort of a mother-daughter thing they did together. Sakura claims she only teaches dollhouse-building classes at the local arts & crafts store because it's good money, but...I think she does it because it reminds her of her mom, and because she enjoys it. 4. Remnants from her childhood: the point shoes she wore when she used to take ballet as a kid, a favorite hat of hers, and a picture of the SakAra lemonade stand--they dont look like them, but whatever haha). ENJOY ==> www.angelfire.com/cantina/deweyshideout/characters/auvernha/Sakura.htmlCOMING UP: Rae, Searlait, Murphy, Tobias (I know they already have profiles, but I'm kind of going for the extensive-ness that Sakura's MySpace now embodies. I'd like to have links to photo albums, stories, journals, and features like the 411 list, contact info, and future ambitions) |

I'm just posting all over the place! I can't keep track of all my ideas..
Just blurbin' about Murphy's parents...
Greg Montgomery. Perhaps went to Bedford College and acquired a Bachelor's Degree in...Accounting? Is that a concentration? Financing? Whatever. Something with dollar signs. So he's a stockbroker now, and think he's all big and bad and has figured out the right way to live life..
(OMG, Murphy's pick up truck just drived by!)
(I have a view of a highway from my office hehe..and a McDonalds..mm)
..and he's always raggin' on Murphy. He's one of those people who think that joining the marines is like... the final option for kids at a deadend in their lives (unlike alfonso and vincenzo, who do it for the honor and call to duty...) Murphy did it for neither of those reasons haha. He just wanted to a) get out of his parents' house and b) have some adventure in his life. Plus, he didn't really want to do the college thing. It was boring to him, and he didn't want to end up like his dad.
Anyway, father and son of course can't stand each other. Greg is very critical of Murphy and Murphy's decisions. When he bought the pickup truck with his own money, his first remark was probably something like "you could've invested that money" or "you could've used that toward a college education". And once the novelty wore off, he's probably made remarks about how Murphy's making the Montgomery house seem like it breeds "white trash"...you know, cause of the whole redneck's drive pickup trucks and listen to country must image haha.
Greg also disapproves of Murphy's bed-hopping ways...he always says he's waiting for the day when Murphy comes home and announces that he's fathered some good-for-nothing girl's baby. He says "maybe then I can finally knock some sense into your head" and yada yada yada. He's pretty antagonistic (obviously) and always starting verbal fights with Murphy. 99% of the time, if not 100, Murphy will just take off and crash at Anthony's, Coop's, Duncan's, or Marcus's now hehe.
Cindy Montgomery is named after John Mccain's wife haha, and I think I'll have her be a beer heiress too haha. I havent' quite figured her out yet. I think she just turns her eyes the other way whenever Greg's being a jerk to Murphy. She'll pretend she doesn't see anything, or that it's not happening at all. She's pretty nonchalant in that aspect. So long as diamons are still around her neck, she's just fine. She's s pushover, to, though, not just snotty. Even if she wanted to defend Murphy, she wouldn't know where to start. I think she's always depended on a man for stability (from her dad, straight to Greg), so she's afraid of being on her own and reaching for her own independence. She doesn't want to cause conflict because she doesn't want it to result in a divorce. She loves Murphy very much, but Greg's brainwashing causes her to see things more from his point of view than from Murphy's. So typically, her way of "cheering up" Murphy is to be like "why don't you just listen to your father?" or "I hate when you make him argue with you.."
That's all for now!

Kostya's Mommy... Galya Mikhaylov => Gayla Hainsworth => Ivanna Denisov (at 28, when Charles met her...) Born: April 3, 1950 (ten years age difference with Charles...scandalous!) Hometown: Moscow Met Charles: 1978 Married Charles: January 1980 Relocated to France: March 1980 Kostya Born: October 1980 Fled to Russia: 1983 **Asked the mafia for protection; new identity, etc **Changed her name to Ivanna; dyed her hair auburn from dark brown **Ended up in a relationship with a member of this mafia (unless you want the dad to be from somewhere else) and assumed his surname **Raised Kostya to believe this man was his father PERSONALITY Uhm... strong-willed, assertive, kind of stoic, intense...has an attitude...not neccessarily the most warm person, or friendly..uhh...I think she was all over Charles because she wanted to get out of Russia, but then she hated France so much lol and she got all jaded... I'll think of more laterrr RUSSIAN MAFIAHow about this one: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izmailovskaya_(mafia) I don't know if you want Kostya's dad to be within the mafia or not. If so, maybe his dad can be the avtoritet (leader) of a subgroup within the gang..? And if not, well.. nevermind ha. |

Introducing Miss Charlotte Louise... (my princess tehe)
She's not model-esque like Sasha. She's short at 5'3, and a bit pudgy hehe.. but not like.. America Ferrera pudgy.. some kind of happy medium between normal weight and that. Kind of like how Parkman's wife was a little pudgy in heroes.. but not like.. grossly obese haha. She has wavy brown hair that's like.. shoulder blade length and.. yes.
Personality. All I can think about is Molly from Titanic.. I think her name was Molly? The very loud, talkative woman who no one wanted to be around.. the new money? haha. But yes. She's like that in the sense that she's very straightforward with people, doesnt' dance around the subject. She has an ear for gossip (her picture looks like she's eavesdropping ha), and is apt to randomly join any circle of conversationlists she espies to further the discussion. She's well read in all the gossip magazines, and is a walking encyclopedia when it comes to celebutantes.
But she's well rounded, too. She's in love with Charlotte Bronte and Jane Austen (she was named after the former), and is actually a romance writer herself. She's working on a story right now. For the time being, she's just sent short works to periodicals and newspapers. She has a way of putting the people she meets into her stories, so don't be surprised if someone who looks and acts like you suddenly makes an appearance in her periodical series.
She says she can best describe herself as a mix between the Pride and Prejudice characters Elisabeth Bennet and Lydia Bennet. The first because she's headstrong, lively, intelligent, and witty. The second because of her sociliazing (a.k.a. flirtaitous ways).
