Vera was roller blading through the streets, on and off the sidewalk. She had a helmet on her head but no knee pads or shoulder pads.
She was grinning as she sped down the sidewalk as fast as she could without stumbling over herself and falling on her face.
"WOOOHOOO!" She cheered to herself as she gave a sharp turn around the corner of the street. She hadn't thought about how people were probably sleeping and how she was being too loud for the sleeping people.
Though being one that dosent sleep much it didn't occur to her that others actually slept when they were supposed too.
She swerved in and out between traffic cones, grinning as she used a ramp to jump over some wet cement and landed on her feet.
She couldn't be enjoying her night more, well she could think of other things that would make it more enjoyable, like having her siblings with her…but that wasn't an option for her. It would still be a long time until the judges and CPS would think she was capable of being a good care taker. She just had hold on until then.
She slowed to a stop and just went on a even pace, going for a casual stroll. She was still deep and thought and started to get sad on how she missed her siblings..

(Here's the new guy replacing Kohen)

Name: Ryland Tallulah Beck
Nickname: Tallu
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Pronouns: He/Him
Sexuality: Bisexual
Race: Human, German/American

Appearance: Has somewhat hooded eyes, the shape being round and downturned. His eyes are something between blue and green, the ring outside of the iris a darker blue than the lighter shade mixing with the green. Ryland's nose is small and slightly curved, almost bordering on straight but not quite. There is a small bump somewhere along the bridge of his nose, giving it a somewhat wavy form, but nothing too noticeable. He has small bow-shaped lips, his bottom and upper lips about the same size. The shape of his face is square, with a noticeable jawline, but soft enough to make his face seem full.
Ryland's hair is straight and black, parted down the middle and he usually does nothing to it except brush it out in the morning and fluff it up some. He's never once dyed it and gets it cut regularly in a short boy cut, some parts of his hair falling at the sides of his face.
His skin is a white medium color, not really fair, but also not exactly tanned, more on the ivory or beige side. Ryland weighs 136 lbs, standing at 5'7", he has an ectomorph body type, being very boxy and thin, but not alarmingly underweight, still has some fat to him.

Clothes: Likes wearing oversized sweaters and slim-fitted jeans, normal t-shirts, but never long sleeves, even in the winter. Wears your typical converse shoes and vans, nothing too fancy just the basics.

Personality: Is a giant people pleaser, especially towards people he latches onto. It doesn't take much to get on his good side. You could do the bare minimum and he'd be all over you. Since he was a pretty lonely child growing up despite having a loving family, he takes any love he can get from anywhere. This isn't his parent's fault or even his sibling's fault, it's just what he was dealt with as a kid growing up. He also doesn't wait for love to fall into his lap, he goes after people who have shown even the slightest interest in him. Aside from being "pathetic" as Tamryn calls it, for going after him all the time, he's a pretty outgoing person who loves to party and include others in things. He tries his best to be happy and keep the mood light. He's very upbeat and kind to a fault. People take advantage of him all the time since he doesn't have any boundaries and gives and gives until he runs out. Ryland doesn't cry often despite the circumstances he finds himself in, he tries his best to be strong and take anything that comes his way. Though everyone has a breaking point, Ryland just hasn't reached his yet. When he is in one of his lower moods he's much quieter and does anything anyone tells him to just so they can leave him alone. He confides too quickly in people to the point where he wonders why they seemed so turned off by him.

Background: Ryland was born to parents who were never married and split shortly after he was born. He never got to know his father as he left when Ryland was three. He has an older sister and brother, both taking on a job unknown to Ryland as he was not allowed to know, and to this day he still doesn't know. They were never at home and when they did come back, they were beaten up and drained. Despite this, they all did a good job of keeping up with each other, making sure they had a good support system.
They used to be really close even though their jobs took out a large portion of their time together. Because of this Ryland has mostly kept to himself in recent years so as to not bother them. He knows that his siblings will be there for him if he needs them, but he wants to be able to live without depending on them all the time. Even though Ryland had loving siblings and a loving mother, he still felt very alone as a kid because his mother would be at work and his siblings at what they called a "special school" which excused their absences when they didn't come home some days. Ryland also attended school, but it was a normal public school. He grew up lonely in daycares and at home by himself most of the time as sometimes his mother didn't have the means to pay off someone to look after him.

Right now he's living in an apartment by himself which he struggles to pay every month. Ryland goes to school but doesn't work, just finding small jobs here and there to pay for the rent and bills, sometimes not even being able to buy food. It's troubling since he usually invites his "friends" out to eat a lot with the little money he's supposed to keep to get by. But his people-pleaser nature feels the need to be seen in good light with his friends even if they are just using Ryland.

(I'm wondering that as well-)

(Where are all yours? Lucky is in Wyoming, just north of Cheyenne. I'm working though what it would take to meet up and actually interact with everyone else XD )
