- dido maxine samantha brodeur o'connor was born in dublin, ireland on april fifteenth so she is
an aries and definitely lives up to the reputation.
- she lived in ireland until she was fourteen so she still has a pretty obvious accent.
- max hates her name and refuses to answer to anything but max and would punch anyone
who calls her dido.
- she could honestly not care less what people think about her so she does whatever she
wants.
- she loves to make divas and arrogant people mad by doing the opposite of what they want
her to, she especially loves annoying her mom, the most dramatic person she knows.
- her dad wanted her to become an actress like him. she doesn't hate acting but she fell in
love with sports when she went into middle school.
- her mother constantly nags her about what she wears and actually cried when max cut her
hair for the first time.
- she is the captain of girls soccer, volleyball, basketball, lacrosse, tennis, swimming, and
cross country teams. max is pretty much the captain of all of the girls teams and even took
up cheerleading, mostly just to please her mom.

- her first love was a girl named nora who broke her heart. she has been kind of afraid to date
anyone ever since then.

broke a girl's nose on accident... oops.
- her brother, spencer, is the golden boy of her family because he followed in the footsteps of
their father and her mother as made it obvious that she likes him more than her. she doesn't
hold it against him though.
- max never tells anyone about her sexuality because she is afraid her parents would somehow
find out. her dad wouldn't care at all but her mom would probably disown her.
- she gets flustered really easily when it comes to romance because she's really inexperienced
with love and doesn't really think anyone will like her.
- she has a minor form of tourette's syndrome but her tics only really kick in when shes trying
to do test or anything like that because those come with the highest anxiety levels for her. her
most prevalent tics are rapid blinking and jerking her leg. she is pretty good at controlling her
tics but only if she concentrates on them.
- max's mom 100% tracks her location to make sure she's not going anywhere but to her sports
meets.
- despite her mother hardly being able to stand her, she did teach max french, so max is fluent
in both french and english. she know some irish from her father, but he isn't fluent so he could
not teach her that much.
- max refuses to wear dresses, so don't even ask her. suits are her formal attire or she'll just
wear a hoodie and sweat pants.
- max absolutely snorts when she laughs and she can't control it at all. she is always really
embarrassed by her laugh.

==↬| personality: ali is actually all over the place. she can be very intelligent, yet hides that part of her. she is very well known in the gaming community of hitch gaming, and is widely spreading her social media influences further as well. she may be from a very wealthy family, and yet she doesn't care about the social status of another. she loves being around others, and does not like bullies at all. she loves animals and donates at least 30% of all her income to animal rescues and lbgtq+ communities alike. she is a self doubting individual, and yet always follows through with a plan. she loves helping others out of their shells, in more ways than one. either it be regarding their sexuality or to help them be who they are meant to be. ali keeps things to herself, even if she knows she needs to talk about them. her emotions are torn different ways, when it comes to personal issues and outside issues. sometimes, she had a hard time trying to decided if she wants something. a simple task to her, is really a personal problem, but when it comes to something complex, she can figure it out in no time. she has a slight issue with people who disagree with her life choices, but she tries to bite her tongue, which causes her to bottle up more emotions. she has never been in love, but she believes it is out there. she does get very jealous, even if it comes to crushing on someone or someone getting a sponsorship over her. she has a competitive attitude, and it seems to make her stand out more than anyone around her. apart from becoming an up-in-coming celebrity, she is really a simple girl who contemplates everything she does.

xxxit was still dark outside when the obnoxious blaring of max's alarm lit up her phone. she grumbled, reaching out for the annoying hunk of metal that rudely awoke her every morning. her fumbling arm made it close enough to touch her phone but instead of turning off her alarm, she simply sent it tumbling to the floor. she grumbled, rolling over and slapping a pillow over her ears, trying desperately to go back to sleep before she heard pounding at her door. "wake up!! time for practice!!!" max felt like crying as she forced herself out from under the covers. was the coach trying to wake up everyone on this floor of the girl's dormitory? honestly, if she knew coach brunner, she probably didn't care very much if she did wake up every other student in the school. max rushed to pull on her uniform for practice and stumbled out of her dorm room, still pull on her shoes. coach brunner and all of the other cross country girls were waiting for her when she made her way out of the building. "ah thank you for finally joining us, ms. o'connor." all of the other girls were glaring daggers at her. max honestly didn't blame them, it was her fault that the cross country practice was pushed to six in the morning. being the captain and best player of almost every girl's sports team meant that almost every practice time had to revolve around her schedule and since she also had cheerleading practice on wednesdays, cross country was pushed from seven back to six.

xxxby the time cross country was over, max was rushing to her room to grab her school uniform for today, her backpack, and her cheerleading uniform. she had no time to change before she ran straight to the gym. thankfully, all of the other girls were still putting on their uniforms when she walked in and max quickly did the same. god, she hated the little skirt that came mandatory with the uniform. "did you hear about the transfer student?" she heard one of the girls saying loudly. max rolled her eyes. "no one transfers to geneva prep in the middle of the year," she retorted. "i wasn't talking to you, yeah?" the girl scoffed. "and for your info, maxine, i know this for a fact." the girl, fatemah, pulled up and article detailing that a popular hitch streamer called "the_ali'corn" was transferring to a prestigious preparatory academy in geneva. "i'd hardly call 'info' from a gossip tabloid 'for a fact'," max argued. in her four years at the academy, she had never seen someone transfer mid-year. "you'd have to have some serious connections to transfer to geneva prep mid-year," another cheerleader chimed in. "everyone's parents here have serious connections," fatemah reminded them. normally, max was not one for gossip, but she would be lying if she said she wasn't intrigued. "let's go girls! we have forty-five before school starts!" the cheerleading coach yelled through the door of the gym.

xxxpractice was fine, not that max really enjoyed cheerleading all that much. it wasn’t the worst thing but she highly preferred soccer or volleyball, or any sport where max and her short skirt weren't just being ogled at by the football players. she only joined so that all of the other sports wouldn't seem suspicious to her parents. anything to hide her truths from them. now that practice was over, the girls were back in the lockerroom, now throwing on their school uniforms. "well, guess who was right!" fatemah exclaimed, running over to the other girls with her phone. on the screen was a picture of the new girl, walking into geneva prep in the famous uniform of all of the students. "i'll never doubt you again," max said in astonishment. and it was just her luck that in her first class of the day, there was the new girl, sitting just a few seats away from her.

[the viking goddess]

===yawning as she pushed her arms in the air, ali looked out the window of her family's private jet. geneva, switzerland birthplace of her mother and nationally known a list model and golden emmy winner, sophia eleah. she understood most of her family lineage was spotty and her mother didn't really talk about her grandparents either. her father was an irish ceo of a publishing company and came from old money. at one point in her life she thought she could have been like her mother, but then she understood who she truly was when she was introduced to video games. it was like a spark ignited in her heart and set a fiery passion within her to promote the lgbtq community as well. her brother was a strong advocate when he was still around, and their father helped out in every way he could to get it known that his company supported the community as well. it was a similar time back then, now it's just her mother and her. figuring it was time for ali to get back into school, her mother sent her off to her first boarding school. she knew she had to be on her best behavior, but how could she not resist the temptation of doing something different than the regular norms.

===once the jet landed, the girl got out and looked for the car that would be taking her to boarding school. 'ugh i cannot believe mom talked me into going here. beautiful place from above though.' she thought as she looked at the driver approaching her. gathering her carry-ons she had, she moved towards the stretch limo and yawned once again. "no sleep lady alessia?" the driver asked as he started to put the rest of her luggage in the trunk. "i thought i got enough, but seems i was wrong. i'll be arriving a little before school starts right?" she spoke with a tired voice as she opened the door by herself. "that is correct my lady, your mother was very strict on the arrival time and you must be jet lagged. you are in a different time zone after all." the driver said as he finally closed the trunk and walked towards her. nodding, alessia got into the back of the limo and the door shut behind her. the driver got into his seat and soon they were off to the boarding school. looking around the inside of the limo, the girl sneered to herself as she seen the refreshments that had been prepared. 'mother may have ordered the limo, but they do not understand a teenage could get them into so much trouble.' she thought as she looked at it all. yes it was tempting, but she also understood she would get into a lot of trouble with hitch gaming as well. looking out the window, the girl continued to take in the scenery from the ground level, instead of being from the sky.

===it didn't seem like a long ride and the driver rolled down the glass. "we will be arriving within the next few minutes lady alessia, you might want to change into your school attire." he spoke, then rolled the glass back up to give her some privacy. looking at the perfectly placed uniform across the way from her, she sighed. "gross." she said with a displeased tone to her voice. her mother hadn't explained there would be uniforms when she agreed to go to this boarding school, but she didn't think to remember most boarding schools had uniforms. pulling the uniform on with the shoes that accompanied it, she looked down to herself and scrunched up her nose in distaste. once she felt the limo pull to a stop and the door opened in less than a minute. stepping out, she looked at the students that were now looking at her. changing her tired expression to a bright smile, she waved at everyone. some of the boys there noticed her quickly and even some of the girls as well. having a crowd rush over to her, she smiled brighter. she explained the reasoning why she was there, but she also told them she would have been there sooner, had it not have been for some meet and greets she had to do for a few publicity events. taking some pictures with a few of the students, she quickly and politely apologized and excused herself to go see the headmaster. she needed to get her schedule set and even find some sort of activity for her to do. she also needed to make sure it was okay to have a single room, as she would have to maintain her social media updates and gaming streams. it was her job of course.

===it wasn't but about twenty minutes or so before everything had been worked out. she got her schedule and was showed her way to her first class. sauntering into the room, she looked around to where it was slightly empty already. the girl gave a small smile and sat down in what she believed to be an empty seat, waiting for the day to begin and for the questions to start.

[`sappho]

xxxjust based on her looks, there was nothing about this new girl that made max think she was anything but a normal student. pretty face, tidy hair, and that signature uniform. well, other than that her tie was a bit loose. maybe she would tell her that after class so she wouldn't get dress coded. max knew how strict the headmaster and all of his henchmen could be about the dress code, even the smallest details. she had personally gotten written up for rolling down her knee-highs or untucking her shirt. yeah, it would be good to help out the new girl, but not right now. no, right now she sat silently, along with all of the other students as their english teacher walked into the room. "good morning class, please pull out your othello essays and pass them to the person at the front of your rows," mrs. wright instructed them, waiting for everyone to follow this order. though a lot of the students at geneva prep didn't speak english natively, most, if not, all of them had been learning english since they were in middle school. max had gotten off easily on english class since she was from ireland, but she was not so lucky in her spanish class. and still, even though max was fluent in english, she struggled in the class. it was no secret why; she constantly put minimal effort into her work. when max wasn't interested in a subject, it was usually filed off to the side in her mind. she hadn't even started this essay on othello until two days before it was due, even though she had been given just less than a month to finish it.

xxxunconsciously, max's leg had already begun to jerk underneath her desk. anyone who knew her could now see just how anxious she was about this. she pulled the paper from her bag and, with a huff, she placed it onto the desk in front of her, stacking the papers that were passed up to her on top of it. once max noticed her leg, she quickly reached her arm down, forcing it to stop. she looked up just momentarily to meet eye with mrs. wright as she swept the papers off of the desk in front of her. max had a terrible poker face, her fear was obvious. what made this even worse was that mrs. wright was not just some random teacher, she knew max's parents. they were friends, which meant she had the ability to personal contact and they would know immediately if max failed this paper. the stakes were definitely enough to get max's heart pumping and to push her leg to continue to jerk under the desk, no matter how much max tried to make it stop.

xxxnow mrs. wright had made her way back to the front of the room, gathering all of the papers into one tall, neat stack. "now, continuing with our study on shakespeare, today we will begin an analysis of one of shakespeare's most famous sonnets, sonnet eighteen." no one seemed excited for this proposition other than the teacher herself. she began to hand out printouts of the poem to each student. "now, pair up everyone and read through the poem yourselves aloud-" she made sure to emphasize this last word- "and then we will come back together as a class to discuss." max looked around, ready to run off to one of her classmates that she was acquaintances with before she heard mrs. wright's voice again. "maxine!" she called to her, motioning her over. she was a bit confused but sauntered her way up to the teacher's desk. "..yes, mrs. wright?" max questioned, raising her eyebrow. "i'd like you to pair up with our new student, ms. alessia mcintosh," she told her, pointing at the other girl. max nodded silently before walking off, still gripping her printout in her hands.

xxxwas this supposed to be her punishment before her paper was even graded? it sure did feel like it as she was walking over. she just quietly pulled a chair up beside the desk alessia was sitting at. "hey, i'm max." she was trying her best to hide her nervousness the best she could, while also trying not to be awkward. should she offer her hand out for a shake? she decided not to, just taking a seat in the chair she had pulled up. "you're alessia, right? mrs. wright wanted me to work with you since it's your first day and everything," she continued, rambling a bit. her attempts to seem less awkward really just showed how nervous she was, not just to be talking to someone she didn't know, but also because of the paper.

[the viking goddess]

===looking at the girl that walked up to her, she smiled softly. it was a soft of relief that she wouldn't get stuck with another preppy girl like her last school. "nice to meet ya. call me ali or ember, the choice is yours of course." she spoke softly as she introduced herself as well, while her tone held a mixture of irish and french to it and her streamer attitude in addition. taking in her features, alessia gulped silently to herself. she hadn't ben taken aback by another girl in sometime and max was that girl now. her hair that perfectly shaped her face, as it held a mild brown tone to it. her brown eyes looked as if you could get lost in them and her voice, it was heavenly to her ears. looking around, she gave another yawned and stretched herself out again trying to hide the blush spreading across her cheeks. "so tell me about this school for a moment, then we can get to know a little about each other after. i am quite curious why my mother has been persistent about this "prep" school." she said bluntly as she added air quotations and glanced towards max. alessia wasn't much of a school person, that's why she choose her career to be what it is today.

===the headmaster was strict earlier about having her own room, only because her mother put down a large contribution to the school. no phones, unless it's on my time and no gaming past midnight, unless it's the weekend. who does he think he is? she thought to herself as she rolled her eyes at the what he said. she felt her phone buzz in her pocket, looking at max she leaned forward and whispered, "i need to cheek my phone, let me know if the teacher comes this way? it's probably my agent." which was a slight lie, but whatever it was or whoever it was knew she was starting school today. pulling her phone out from under the desk, she glanced down at it and looked at the message on the screen.

==="good to know you made it to school alright - be on your best behavior, there will be people watching everywhere. - love mom" she read the text and rolled her eyes once again. shoving her phone off into her bag next, she turned back to max and sighed. "when do we get a break? i am in need of a cat nap or something to give me energy." she said with a tired tone now. she was more tired than she thought, adjusting to the time difference was going to be a little difficult, but nothing she couldn't handle right?

===( sorry i have been sick, i am having an out patient procedure done in the morning and idk how long i will be able to be on for the next few days while i recover. i am going to try to post at least once or twice every though! )
