Justin: Porto Rican/Black - Bi - Taken In committed relationship with Milan (owned by softricemilk).
Birthday : April 1st.
Justin's work floats around to whatever calling him at the moment, he's done a number of fast food jobs.
Cupid: Senegalese/Caribean is pan-romantic and sexual as fuck, likes red velvet-says it fits his theme, his fraternal twin is Fatoumata. works from home, doing sales, using his provocative voice to influence votes for sales
He older by a min and won't let it go
Starts sentences by saying , as your older brother i
Fatoumata/Mata: Senagalese/Caribbean is a lesbian, her fraternal twin is cupid, Mata is an entrepreneur ,upscale bar/casino and working as style cordinator
-----
mata being the "good child" because she was the sick twin when they were kids
mostly weak immune system, she probably was smaller when born, i mean both were prbly premies? but mata was the worse off and stayed in hospital at least 2 weeks longer than her brother
until maybe 10?? she'd likely get sick so easily and so badly, mostly respiratory, bronchial issues,
more sensitive to the heat/affects than her brother, now p healthy but likely anemic and has to watch blood sugar
but,since mata was more easily ill, she was a bit more introverted than her brother? but also since she was "Cared for more" he was a lot louder/abrasive in contrast and which did not help their personalities in comparison, they were close growing up, even as fraternal twins, he was protective of mata, and her of him but in a more lowkey way, mata was hmmm, prbly more studious than cupid? not to say he wasn't smart, both excelled in math/science, cupid took to playing instruments and mata to singing, though cupid would later give up on all instruments prbly, they likely stayed closish until puberty maybe? about 10/12, teenagerdom, the issue with malia, making them part, and how they handled their parents
mmmmmmmmmmm their parents are a bit typical strict africana/black but, hmmmm they weren't the best perse, but the twins handled them diffrent, mata learned to pick her battles, "play nice", avoidance and so on, while cupid was more head on and direct, fought often with their parents ideal family started off mid-class, a lot of money mata has was built from family money, but she also played the game smart
their parents weren't as uhhhh open about some things as well, while cupid was, and mata just kinda learned to hide that part of herself until the age now which she's fully free from her parents thumb
i figure later down the line it'd prob be more so, but rn, she's v confident, just not around parents
cupid got kicked out about twice in highschool, and that's when he began more fully accepting himself/sexuality and so on, mata was kinda stuck? cupid cares that he'd rather her be there than bouncing around like he was, but mata was like torn between sadness he left/also, resentment????? a bit
their parents are much older n not as involved, so things are a bit "Tense" but uhh cupid has no contact/as little as possible, even tho they "mended" ties and mata keeps up pretenses

Everything Stays - Malik's Theme
Malik-He's a pretty chill dude! He enjoys fishing, and eating seafood.
He's hard of hearing and wears hearing aids, uses sign language but also communicates through notes since it's faster for some people.
Interested in drums but not super committed, he spends most of his time by the river fishing, or taking a nap on a grassy bank.
What does he do????? No one ever really sees him actually working, but he does a lot of his work at night, most of it benefiting the community like road work or delivering sacks of rice/water around neighborhoods.
Yemick- A nervous and generally anxious fellow! Has a pet snake named nana (because she's yellow like a banana), he has a green thumb and often working in a greenhouse. Fruits and herbs are his specialty, but has a lot of general plant knowledge. He helps farmers with testing their grounds and making fretilizer, runs a green house and does "lessons" on saturdays
Vianna- A excitable cheerful gal! She's a dairy farmer, where most of the cows are free range. Her place specializes (if that's a thing) in miniature cows, she's pretty much adopted a miniature calf who won't be left behind in any place she goes. She also takes care of chickens and a few local ducks who are in the area. She's all about animals and cares for them a great deal! Instrested in vetinary care, but happy with her life as a dairy farmer. Can be pushy abput selling milk and so on.
Abby- A newcomer to the area, came from the city, is invested in photography, she likes hiking and is a bit reserved. She likes meeting people and just listening to what they have to say, or learning about where they come from.
