03.2023 | WELCOME BACK! Hello friends old and new! I'm so excited to welcome you all back to SITW! I've made some changes to the plot and added the ability to play supernatural charcaters! So come and check it out! I can't wait to jump back into this little town with all of you!
A strange history surrounds the town, it is a place where mysterious and supernatural things have been known to happen. The reputation of the town reguarly draws in visitors and newcomers alike. While some residents avidly believe in the supernatural, others are far more skeptical. What do you believe?
There's a few ways one could describe Beau: Some would say he's a very calm and sweet boy who goes out of his way to help his friends and neighbors; some would say he's an untamed freak whose aunt needs to take hold of him already; and others would say he's a creep that needs to stop following them. To quote the great philosopher P. Star, the inner machinations of his mind are an enigma.
But if you need something done and only have a few bucks, he's your guy.
FRIENDS - Beau, uh, doesn't really have friends. This is more so his fault than anyone else's, he doesn't know what he has even when he loses it. People who want to befriend him will need to be very clear that there's something tangible. He, himself, is prone to acts of friendship, especially if he finds the person interesting to be around. Anyone who has special interests, talk a lot, or simply are odd themselves will be easy targets for Beau's silent affection. He likes to watch most of all, but anyone who is nice enough can get him to crack open.
ENEMIES - Beau can be very, very shitty and sarcastic for no particular reason and I've always seen him as that goth kid that got picked on in middle school. He's not one to hold a grudge per se, but he's akin to a bird of prey and lies in wait for when he can strike someone at their weakest point--and he likes to pick at the bones after. He has very little empathy skills and often finds himself giving up on being pleasant to mean people, so I suppose one can just summarize it as, "treat him poorly, he'll treat you poorly right back." Also, he gets into scuffles a lot, and I often see him losing, but y'know.
ROMANCE - I see Beau as the type that does not actively pursue romance, but if it happens, it happens. He definitely gets around, in the very least, and he'll get it where he can take it. This isn't necessarily a lustful kind of thing, but because he is constantly looking for his next spark of happiness, and it's easy to find that in other people since he can barely afford material things. Food and sex are his go-to! He can be your character's weird lay they can't stop thinking about, or even something they did at a party but can barely remember (and neither can he). I'm up to anything!

@beau , misfits unite! I'd be interested to see how Beau and Ida get on. Ida’s a bit of a loner and has her fair share of trauma, so in that regard they have a lot in common. But I also think her quirky daydreamer personality would grate on Beau a little bit. Maybe unlikely friends/frenemies? She’s exceedingly socially awkward (and at times a little annoying), so I can see her pushing Beau’s buttons without really understanding that he wants her to leave him alone. But, could be endearing. After all, maybe opposites DO attract. Ida’s hung up on another boy, but I’m not entirely opposed to her having a weird fling if the opportunity presents itself. Up for anything!

I imagine these two have either never spoken to one another in their lives, or maybe Ellis D. Is one of the few Beau counts as a friend! It would be recent if the latter, as Ellis D. stopped hanging out with the “mainstream” crowd of Hollifield High and has settled in among his “trailer park trash” friends. Ellis D. is a pretty good guy in general, not prone to bullying or meanness, typically keeping to himself. So I think either Friends or Acquaintances would work for them!

Beau who? Oh that creepy little dude? Yeah I probably caught him with my shoulder in the hall once or twice. It's good for freaks like him. Teaches them to be tough. If he thinks high school is hard just wait until he gets into the real world. - Your enemy, Price
I think Milo would mostly just let Beau do his thing and sees him as the weird goth kid. He isn't a bully but doesn't go out of his way to make friends with people either, especially if he doesn't see anything they might have in common. But I'm definitely interested in that "But if you need something done and only have a few bucks, he's your guy" bit. Tell me more!
@ida Um, I love her?? You're probably right, Beau would probably sometimes find her bothersome, but I think ultimately that would accumulate to light teasing. I think he'd like her well enough to at least Sorta try to be pleasant. That is to say, I can definitely see them as friends. She's the type that he probably can't comprehend likes him back as a friend, so he'd definitely keep a certain distance, but he'd still follow her around regardless. I could even see them being potentially dangerous together, hmm!!
In terms of a weird fling, Beau would be down w/ no strings attached. Your call!
Ellis D. Youngblood I've been thinking on this one ever since you replied and I'm still not quite sure where to place these two. Alas, I feel like Beau wouldn't be crazy about Ellis D, but probably not in any form that would make them interact a lot. Though, I do think it's in Beau's nature to try to get under the skin of people he thinks take themselves too seriously, so maybe things could eventually sour between them. Acquaintances is probably the best bet otherwise.
Price Vanderson Beau has a surprise and this boy will get it if the Price is right, haha! See what I did? It's a knife in the ribs.
Milo Laurent Yeah, I think if Beau sees how Milo is around others, he'd just think he's a douche and pay zero mind to him. Buuuuuuuuuuuut, yes, Beau will do anything for a price. And yeah, that means anything. Like, anything. Zero exaggeration. Like, I cannot stress the implications behind anything enough. Whatever you might think, and he'll do it.
