Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
Lauren and Kate go ( i do dare )
u devil /lh
anyways there'll be uh. heavy lauren and kate bias here but it's okay lmao
LAUREN
Full name: Lauren Belle Woods; quite a fancy choice but hey it flows
No set DOB, but I can see either Aries or Taurus. Aries is more the lean I'm feeling
Lauren's household dynamic is a little more down-to-earth meshed with conservative. She was raised by her grandmother with no apparent contact to her bio parents. There also is an absent father figure here, as is with this whole trio (not intentionally- it just kinda happened lol)
She cuts her own hair to save on expenses, but it's usually just a trim or thinning. Her hair rarely goes past her shoulders, and if it does it's been a rough season.
She has a romantic interest in afabs, but because of her upbringing ends up with amabs more frequently.
Stoner. Don't ask me why, but she feels like the mellow person at a party and ends up with wallflowers.
With this, she probably had the heaviest scene phase out of the trio.
Doesn't really come around to Kate's that often anymore, but she did still attend Beth's funeral out of respect.
Probably has her life most put together out of the three of them: She's got a degree in interior design from an out of town college, can make ends meet on her own, and she plans on settling down.. eventually.
That doesn't dismiss the sights she sees out of the corner of her eyes, though.
She's currently a stable meds taker, with only one prescription, but she finds each week that goes by it doesn't really help?
Despite having things put together, she'd rather stay in Oakside for nostalgia sake.
Stubborn, but she's also the friend to walk behind the group on the sidewalk.
KATE
Full name: Katherine Elizabeth Hayes (cough u see the naming trend)
She's a gemini. May 23.
Obviously Kate grew up with their mother, but she was borne of an affair Beth had with one of the Oakside figureheads; Kate doesn't really know who the father is, as Beth won't budge on it.
Her relationship with her mom is decent enough around the house, but it is still a strain on both ends. They just butt heads a little too much.
So.. Mommy issues + fatherless activity = she/they bisexual???
Especially when it comes to C.R. Kate doesn't see the red flags when staring dead on at the flagpole.
Probably went to school for something athletic or bio. Either way, they would've gotten as far away from Oakside as possible with a scholarship through softball.
Yeah. Softball. Pretty buff lady,,,
Unlike Lauren and C.R., Kate is a loudhouse. She oversteps a lot of rules and doesn't care too much of others' opinions.
She's just vibing bro!
Their friends probably bailed them out at least once or twice.
Cool older sibling energy
Yellow is definitely her color. Along with purple.
Her and Charlie are related! It's very distant, but there is overlap, and it explains why their kin struggles with that Thing.
Kate's a little dense with Lauren's feelings. She won't really see their best friend as anything more than platonic.
I see a lot of people talking about her being in her teens? Completely valid, but Kate (along with the other two) are in like their mid-20's. Hell, Lauren has a job and Kate lives solo.
She'll drive to town every once in a while, but it's really for them to get away from that Thing's influence long enough.
Kate is the source of things here; not directly, but they did kinda reignite it in her youth.
They have a couple of diagnoses, but she prefers to keep each to themself.
Kate has burn scars. I do not and will not take any criticism on this.
Probably would've been a Doc Martens person.
TLDR? CEO of dumbass.
i need more words to express these two in full; i just love afabs,,,
(sidenote i have an older post on kate hc's, but i don't really find myself attached to them as much? link is still here if you're interested, though)
