NEIGHBORS TO THE TRAGEDY STRICKEN MERCURY HOUSEHOLD, the Venus family is constantly reminded of how fortunate their situation is. Not all District Three residents are as lucky as them to live in such a comfortable estate and have two living parents. With a father working for Panem's government, and a mother that inherited money from her own family, the income flowing through their front door is enough to lead an almost luxurious lifestyle.

So, this family is suprisingly pretty average? I didn't really have any particular idea for this family, other than the fact that they used to be close with the Mercurys and that this is a sister plot to the Mercury plot.(Next thing you know I'll be basing a plot off of every planet in the solar system. But, if anyone has any ideas to spice up this family more, let me know and maybe we can flesh out some ideas together!

[presto] OSWALD VENUS - 18 y/o Played by Clover "Mama says the cigarettes and the whisky and the days I don't get back home until morning are acts of rebellion." _________________________________ A young man with an obsession with freedom, Oswald enjoys running barefoot through the district. His parents consider him irresponsible - rarely he arrives home before dawn, and whisky and cigarettes are his favourite ways to raise their eyebrows. [/presto]Ever since he was a tiny boy, he acted as though the world belonged to him. He was a fierce protector of his large family. Nothing, still, is more important to Oswald than the saftey of his sisters and brothers, and he would do anything to put a smile on their faces. Oswald finds the good in everything, and constantly wears a smile as though he doesn't know how to frown. He's cheery, bright and daring, the careless fun he carries around with him contageous. | [presto] CARMELLA VENUS - 16 y/o Played by Chelsey "I'm sixteen, and plenty of old women with wrinkles beneath their eyes and in thick black corsets have waited their entire lives to tell a young girl like me that I'm foolish for thinking I'm in love." _________________________________ Young and in love with everything but herself, Carmella Venus is as sweet and naive as her name makes her sound. She's not quite sure when she developed a taste for warm kisses and the sensation of boys staring at her, but she craves it all the time now. At her age, she's typically foolish and often finds herself in trouble for hanging out with the wrong crowd, and has, more than once, found herself in trouble with the law - and usually being framed by her "friends" for things she didn't do. Her obsession with "growing up" replaced her innocence with a vulnerability that cracked her wide open to the abuse of arrogant boys and shallow girls. [/presto] |
[presto] _________________________________ A young boy who grew up too fast and too soon. He damned himself when he was 14 and started buying drugs from the girl in his history class because he wanted to "experiment with his youth." Of course, he was too young and stupid to realize what the consequences could lead to. [/presto]Now, he deals a little bit on the side himself, but his everyday use has taken a toll on him. He's beginning to... see things? He doesn't know if he's going insane or if drugs just unlock this part in the human brain that isn't accesible when you're sober, but he sees a lot of things. In fact, Tobias is convinced he's had a vision of how he's going to die, and is now hell bent on living his life to the goddamn fullest in order to make up for the time he knows he's going to lose. | [presto] _________________________________ Her parents raised a fire cracker in this one - they're just scared that one day that flame might blow out. [/presto]Azalea is a girl that could easily change the world with her quick tongue and sharp mind, if she was only given the opportunity and the time. She's constantly sick, and confined to her bed and bound under medicines that make her feel drowsy and make her illnesses feel even worse than before. She's always treated delicately, and by God, does she hate it. Azalea has it figured that in order for someone to learn how to fix themselves, they're going to have to be broken first. And how is that ever gonna happen if people keep handling her with care? Because she's always inside her bedroom, she's taken a fancy to sky watching through her window and has an uncanny obsession with the sky. When her parents aren't hiring doctors to stick needles through her skin, she's studying astrology on her own. |
| [presto] _________________________________ "Do you usually think about things this much?" "Yes. It's a problem." [/presto]Sees the world in black and white, but creates purple and blue on his own skin. Isaiah is virtuous and usually has good intentions, but the bruises he creates on his own body just leave him feeling even emptier than he was to begin with. When he was smaller, he saw a man jump off a bridge and end his own life. Ever since, Isaiah has a complex way of looking at life, and tends to detach himself from reality in order to delve deeper in the storm of his own mind. He thinks too much, especially for a boy at his young age, and his thoughts wear him down to the point where he can't even stare at the sky without having a goddamn existential crisis. His mind is a maze that he would pay any price to either find the center of or find a way out of. Don't misinterpret him - he isn't depressed. The bruises hiding beneath his sweaters and the smile he wears thinly on his lips are a result of a mind too complex and too smart for its own good - of thoughts burning brightly because he can't seem to find the off switch - not of some dismal and youth fulfilling sadness. Loves his family, but loves Indigo most of all. | [presto] INDIGO VENUS - 13 y/o Played by Zoë "Nobody ever stopped to ask where she acquired her possessions - they simply appeared out of thin air on bookshelves, window frames, her desk drawer, just as they disappeared: like magic." _________________________________ Her sweet appearance and young age serve her well, she enjoys wrapping people around her finger only to crush them in her fist. If something has gone amiss, this little minx was probably the one to have stolen it. She has a hobby of stealing other people's important possessions and returning them for ransom , where her deals usually include her pocketing money or keeping the stolen items that the victim can't afford to retrieve. In her own room is a collection of stolen goods she never got around to giving back, and includes old pocket watches, wiry eyeglasses, and even a few hairbrushes. [/presto]Has trouble connecting with her sisters, but is somehow incredibly close with her brothers, namely Isaiah. Intensely close with Isaiah, she is even more protective over him. Thinking that the bruises on his body are the result of others bullying her brother, she vows the day she will find them and beat them up herself. |
| [presto] LILAC VENUS - 43 y/o NPC _________________________________ Fiercely devoted to her family and her husband, Lilac has always been the navigator of the family - and maybe, sometimes, even other families, too. When the Mercurys first lost their father, Lilac made sure to stop by every week with a warm meal and make sure they were still eating. [/presto] | [presto] CHET VENUS - 48 y/o NPC _________________________________ Was best friends with Otis Mercury until he licked a steel bullet and ended his own life. Devestated by the loss of his best friend, he locked himself behind the oak doors of his office and didn't come out for two days. Nowadays, Chet's own life hasn't been much other than work, work, work, family, work, work, family, work. Sometimes, he almost wants to put a bullet through his own head. Of course, he's not as crazy as Otis Mercury was, and not nearly half as selfish to leave his family behind. [/presto] |
