Effy Stonem (
pastmewrong):
- Is from Skins.
- Is British. From Bristol, if you want to get precise about it.
- Misanthropic, enigmatic and elusive, according to the Skins promotional descriptions. Basically, she's cool, detached and distainful 25% of the time, smirky and smug and Better Than You the other 75%.
- Smokes, drinks, swears frequently, does drugs, wears as little as she can get away with, and damn she misses the nightlife she had back home.
- She likes to think she's independent, completely emotionally unflappable, and needs no one. This is a big fat lie.
- Also, she likes to talk big, and appears to have a lot of (occasionally misplaced) confidence. Seriously. It's all 'I can do anything', 'I'll try anything', 'well, everybody loves me'. All canon.
- That is probably a lot to do with covering up some issueees. She has a whole bunch (in case that way she shuts people out didn't clue you in) that she keeps firmly under wraps... Until she doesn't. That time is not on us yet.
- Believes boyfriends are far, FAR too much hassle. She says having a buddy is far more time and pleasure efficient. Again, one day this will probably change, as in canon (sort of). Not yet.
- Oh, and she's kind of, maybe, a little bit creepy, sometimes. Mostly harmless, but creeeeeepy.
Angela Pearly-Gates Montenegro (
flashesforinfo):
- Is from Bones. Pre-canon, seventeen, a senior, and originates from the year 1995.
- Is one of those endlessly hopeful and positive people, who believes in love and good times, and living in the moment, and all that good stuff.
- She just looooooves people, and parties and anything in that vein. It's amazing I've managed to keep up with someone so chatty this long.
- Dating
decoder_rings, and currently chock full of all those mushy feelings that my other character would roll her eyes at in disdain.
- Since she has a boyfriend and awesome love life of her own now, she's all for trying to fix up other people's. Little bit nosy, yes. She just wants people to be happy.
- Has one of those ways about her that seems to attract people and make them comfortable. She's usually got a smile, and will flirt with anything that moves.
- People will get called 'Sweetie', whether they like it or not. It's her thing.
- She's got this famous father, who she doesn't bring up all that often, just because she likes to get by without his reputation and fame, since he is in fact in
ZZ Top. Yes, that one.
- One day, she'll grow up to be a brilliant forensic artist, be BFF's with
doesnt_vomit and design and create her own uber-holographic-visualisation-machine-thing, dubbed the Angelator. ... You know, ten years or so down the line.

Hi! I'm Emma (found on places like Twitter and LJ as
binx_349). I'm finally no longer a college student, but instead a broke graduate trying to find a job (FUUUN), and still one of the youngest in this game (I think third youngest? Maybe). I live on GMT (IT IS REAL, DAMN IT) but generally run almost entirely on an EST timetable because, hi weird insomnia. I'm often around and online a lot during the day, if comparatively quiet.
I'm contactable by any the many and varied emails and AIM names on the LJ profiles you're looking at, so feel free to grab me to plot, or plan, or chat or whatever. I'm nice, don't bite, etc etc! Say hi, I'll love it.
And that is all!
Also, this post took me three different browsers and two different journals before I got it to ACTUALLY post. I'm blaming LJ.
