COLTON LEROCHE & MIZUNO AKEMI SORRY FOR THE LATE REPLY. HAD TO RECHARGE MY BRAIN BATTERIES BUT LET'S GET DOWN TO BUSINESS TO DEFEAT THE HUNS

Colton + Fauna

I LOOKED AT COLTON'S APP AND I CAN SEE WHY FRIENDS SLASH ENEMIES HAVE EQUAL POTENTIAL. Assuming Colton doesn't already know Fauna's a bitch from others, Fauna's going to act neutral and just a teeny bit decent toward Colton at first, at least until she's figured out if she could use Colton to bring her juice boxes or something. Fauna would easily just use Colton and be nice to him for the lols, then mock him behind his back. And when confronted by that, Fauna's just going to ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and say, "at least I talked to you. Don't you have any idea how much air I had to breathe for that?"

I'm leaning on starting with them seemingly getting along since Colton thinks Fauna is cute. There doesn't seem to be any benefits in being friends with Colton, so she would just be entertaining him for her amusement. But if something does happen to change that, they may end up as friends. Like tell him to take a bath for starters.

How do you want to start their thread? First time meeting? Would be a good way for the chars to size each other up.

Akemi + Fauna

AKEMI IS PERFECT. Wow look at a beautiful and gorgeous Milotic AND FAUNA'S A DAMN RATTATA.

I'm going to do more than adding and altering to your rough idea actually, so I hope you don't mind this incoming rambling.

I think maybe we could have had them be friends in the past? And by past I mean elementary days when they were both getting bullied. Fauna was a bit nicer back then but I don't think their friendship was something that lasted. Fauna might have met Akemi, talked to her a bit, and was surprised that she was a Mizuno, an ugly Mizuno. If you want, we could have them have a brief, genuine friendship because of the hard time they had together + adoption thing, but ultimately, Fauna would distance herself from Akemi, because unlike Akemi, Fauna did not attract unwanted attention the same way that she did. If she stuck around Akemi, people would have more reason to make fun of her. Basically, Fauna ditched Akemi to save her own skin.

Fast forward to high school when the two are living better lives. Fauna would 100% befriend Akemi now that she's prettier. She would definitely use their old friendship to boost her chance in befriending her. I think Akemi might have known that Fauna was one of those shallow popular kids, but Fauna would definitely insist on making excuses to stay in Akemi's good graces. She would tell her that she hates this kind of thing too, but unlike Akemi, Fauna wasn't strikingly pretty and she just wanted friends, yadayada. Basically flatter Akemi, get her sympathy, make it seem like Fauna's not all that bad.

So depending on how they interacted in the past, we can definitely make something interesting now that they're both in college!

BAILEY ANDERSON I saw the new first year member, read the plot page, read the app, read this, read your open thread. posted in the open thread.

let's definitely make them hate and cause drama. also, growing up together from high school sounds ideal as anything before that fauna is a bit decent. Bailey is PRIME target for Fauna's bullying. Bailey is literally the protag of some cartoon and Fauna's your resident bully. Let's go.
