meet austin william forge. quiet, shy, mysterious, and darkishly sexy are the top adjectives that are used to normally describe him. he's that type of guy that will walk around with his canon eos five d mark two around his neck instead of socializing with other people, and is quite the cold hesitant person when approached to. although he gives off the cool vibe, little do people know that he has a top secret that no one understands - its that he's actually here in bouscher on a scholarship, and that he's the kid with no money.



` friends
-- are definitely rare for this nineteen year old. he's the opposite of a social butterfly, but he's not exactly friendless. let's just say that he's very picky when it comes to who he considers as his proper friends, even more so when it comes to the label of best friend. please keep in mind that if you are interested in being his friend, a mandatory paragraph in high detail is needed to explain the history between austin and your character or characters.


` enemies
-- in saying so, this area will have more than the friends list. although i think that it will rather be annoyances rather than full hatred; unless of course there is a full specification as to why your character or characters hate austin. since austin's quiet, i suppose that people will take him more as an arrogant person, rather than fully understand that the reason why he doesn't talk is because he doesn't want anyone to come close to him and find out his secret.


` lovers
-- as much as austin loves the ladies, he's not exactly the type to know how to be in a proper relationship, seeing as the only relationship he's witnessed is the one between his abusive father and his hardworking mother. this guy though, isn't afraid to love or to get his heart broken, for he's aware of that. but, if your character is interesting in being with austin in the future, please do put in a very detailed paragraph as to why they will be together.

_{Meridith and austin}

well, unless she can pull him out of his shell, she might not like him, but she might use him for his major, because she is a mojor bitch and loves having her picture taken. but she also likes having sex, so if she can get that out of the relationship she would happily do that.

_{nicolai and austin}

he is very nice, and calm, but likes to party, and does very well at holding down his alcohol. he could be class friends, but i don't know how well he would do with someone so quiet. nicolai is a social butterfly and is friends with everyone, so that is nearly the opposite of him.

_{mason and austin}

mason and austin have the same major and they can bond through that, but he is so gay its nearly unbelievable. he is a fashion minor, and loves to make clothes and take pictures. i don't know, but maybe friends, i don't thing that mason would be into austin like sexualy.

[ramilda ulysses-jane matsen]

^{ramilda && austin}: kay, so i know a while before on this site we had a really sexually tense relationship between these two. austin was one of the only people who could connect with ramilda on a deeper level regarding her art and her passions. maybe we could have these two as friends now? we could say they've been tight ever since then, so all year-ish. maybe they aren;t super duper close and hang out all the time or run in the same circles, but they do connect on that single deep level and spend time together one on one. i feel like austin may be one of the only people ramilda feels she knows she can trust entirely at this point.

^{arturo && austin}: yeah, they're totally going to hate each other. arturo is a douche-y, womanizing freshman who hasn't been through too much struggle in his life. i can see him annoying the brains out of austin. also, he's a notoriously undeserving rich kid and this could maybe add to austin's dislike of him.

^{austin && kenan}: so, kenan has no guy friends right now and maybe austin could be the answer. austin is here on scholarship and has fucked up parents, right? well kenan is adopted and comes from an all black family in venice beach. his parents are uneducated, hippie drug lords, and kenan sort of grew up in the wrong crowd because of it. kenan is a bit of a loner, not having too many close companions. he doesn't really talk about his family much, or delve out a lot of his secrets. he drinks and smokes but doesn't get wild. he's a chill, nice guy, but needs someone to be close with. maybe austin and kenan form a friendship based off of similar temperament at first, and later as their friendship and trust progresses they learn to bond of similar histories?

austin and meridith/nicolai

[/i]
- truthfully, i don't see any big relationships happening between these characters. austin wouldn't go and associate himself with meridith and perhaps a tiny bit with nicolai in terms of class friends but overall, nothing really. sorry for making you go and do a lengthy post on these characters.

austin and mason[/i]
- now this relationship, i can see going somewhere. they can definitely bond over their love for photography and perhaps since mason is so unbelievably gay, he can go and give austin this whole new makeover. it would be interesting to see how those two would be like around each other. friends, definitely.

austin and ramilda[/i]
- that sounds good to me. it can be like an ex-fling turned into friends. it'll be good to have familiarity back on the site. i can't wait to see how their next posts would turn out.

austin and arturo[/i]
- seems to me like these two would definitely hate each other. it's a perfect mutual hatred from the sounds of it. all good and clear.

austin and kenan[/i]
- it sounds as if these two would start off a slow friendship and build up a nice strong and close one later on. i'm all for this kenan guy for austin to be good friends with, can't wait to see how their relationship as friends will evolve later on.

_{maosn and austin}

no problem about the other two, you can't fit everyone into a persons life. XD but yeah, i think that hey could be great friends. mason loves to dress all his girl friends up, and would thow a hissy fit if he saw austin wearing anything that made him look bad. :) im excited, mason has friends, just not a lot of guy ones because he is gay.

- that's good to hear then. shall we go and start a thread up later?

[mason jared harris]

_{Meridith and gracie}

if you want me to start one, it won't get done tonight, but if you want to start it, i will try and answer it tonight. either way we need to thread.

- i'm in no rush, i can answer you tomorrow. i would start, but i am off to bed soon as it's midnight here.

[kennis brielle duffy]

austin and kennis Well, I'd like to go with the plot these two had before. Kennis is really perky and outgoing which throws him off at first. Once they get to talking though, he realizes that her goofy, energetic personality belies someone who is really observant and pretty understanding. They get to know each other and start to relax around one another. He loosens up a little and she tones her personality down because he’s not looking for someone that can keep a party interesting in their friendship.

austin and evie Her personality probably wouldn’t exactly be Austin’s cup of tea. She’s a little brash and he’s a little too subdued to really interest her. They’d most likely steer clear of each other.


Austin and William William is a little more interested in the party side of Bouscher living, so they may not exactly get along wonderfully but I see these two being at least friendly to each other, they just wouldn’t have a lot to talk about.

[brooklyn ava cauldwell]

_{brook && gracie}

so, these two have a wonderful little note going, and i just felt that we should plot them! i feel like brook would barrel into his world like a canon and he'd hate her at first, but she's just such a persistent, happy little thing that she'd become more like a happy annoyance. like, half the time he's just going "who the fuck is this chick and why did i let her into my life?" and the other half he can see why he likes her. i guess i'm seeing sort of an annoying little sister type thing? lemme know whatcha think, i to totally understand if you're not down.
