Role & Dorm Assignment: Girl 9/Dorm 16

How long have you been at Greyson Reform: Less than a year

Personality: Will may be a very quiet girl, but she isn't what you'd consider shy. She does a lot of things with no regrets and is almost never sorry. With all the bullying that she's had to put up with, the things she says are hardly as inappropriate and childish as what the other kids teased her about. Will is really stubborn and gets jealous quite easily. Thought she doesn't try, she's very seductive and manipulative, and considering she's only part mutant, she thinks that's an amazing ability.(will add more.)

History: Will was born into a family of purebreds. Well, at least on her mom's side. Her mom was 17 and her dad was 20, but they were supported by her father's side of the family. They both moved into a high rise apartment with Will's fathers' family's funding's. While Will's mother was pregnant, she started sewing and decided to sell the clothes she made. People really liked her designs and she got a letter one day, asking if she'd like to start a partnership business with a world famous designer. This all happened in 8 months, and on the 9th month, Will was born.

Will was a very beautiful and unique looking baby. She had very bright emerald green eyes and light brown hair. That was when Will's mother and her partner came up with a perfect idea. When Will turned 4, she instantly began modeling for her mother's now grand and worldwide company. Her hair turned black after a couple photo shoot's and she also became famous for that. But people were starting to think that this 'purebred' little angel, wasn't so purebred after all. Will's mother confronted her father, but he said he was purebred. His mother soon stepped in after she found out that they had been arguing, and confessed to being a mutant, but having a purebred husband. So, it was discovered that Will did not get her unique looks from luck, but she got that instead of having abilities. Will's father didn't get any abilities or unique looks, meaning it skipped a generation. Will's father became confused and upset, not knowing this about his mother and took some time off of working at his wife's company.

When Will was 10, her mother found out that her father had fallen for another mutant woman, and that he'd been sneaking off to see her for 6 years. This broke poor little Will's heart, and whenever her father tried approaching her, she slapped his hand away or just straight up gave him the cold shoulder. They also found out that Will has a 6 year old sister. Feeling completely depressed and betrayed, she asked her mother if she could take a break from modeling, and surely her mother said it was okay. Her mother also held a press conference about how much she hates mutants and how they are straight up outcasts and don't deserve to live. She has seemed pretty peaceful to her daughter and to the public, up until that moment of betrayal from her father.

One day, Will decided that she had enough of the fighting and stress, so she hacked into her father's e-mail account, to send out a letter of apology to Will's mother, that he refused to send on his own. Will thought about things that he enjoyed or things that were apart of his personality, but nothing showed up. So, she started gathering hacking knowledge, and by the time she was 13, she'd learned how to decrypt codes. When Will's mother asked her to start modelling again, she refused, picking up a new life style. Will went to school, just like every other kid, and wasn't exactly popular because many people had famous parents and she wasn't just an exception. Will stayed to her lonesome self, always got good grades and finished her homework and school work before everyone else, she even took up digital art. Soon enough, Will became in love with computers.

She didn't get fat from sitting around, and she never stopped being beautiful, she just found what she loved most and stuck to it. Will started to steal amazing new technology that she stole from electronic stores (thanks to her hacking skills), and brought them to the mutants, who had a lot less than the purebreds had. At 15, she took up smoking and graffiti art. At 16, her mother found out about her stealing, smoking, hacking and visits to the race she hates the most, and forbid her to live that kind of lifestyle anymore. That her first and last warning. Will didn't care what her mother thought. Will blew up on her and told her that she had to grow up being independent because of the fights between her divorced parents, her mother being too busy at work, and basically everything she could pull out of her sleeve. Will wanted to keep expressing herself for who she was, but unfortunately got caught again, but this time she was high as a kite. Her mother got so angry, that she signed her in to boot camp, and that's how she wound up where she is.

Lilly Chrome:

It had been an accident. What had happened...It had been an accident...Hadn't it? So all of this was merely an accident too - coming to Greyson, finding herself among criminals and psychopaths alike, realising that she belonged a world that sparkled less than the future she once dreamt of so fondly. All of it. It was all an accident, made by one small, forgivable mistake. Forgivable. It was forgivable, right? Not that Lilly believed in any particular hellish afterlife into which she would enter through death; it was just the guilt, the memories, the fire scorching vicious red burns at the back of her mind... No! There was nothing to be guilty over; it was an accident - an accident! Just like stumbling down the stairs, or tripping over your own feet. Or falling into someone with a knife in your hand. Stop it.

If it had been an accident, the night that had unravelled not so long ago, then why was she here of all places? Upon arriving, she'd asked herself that a lot; all the way through the orientation, those thoughts had swirled and spilled across her mind like a sickly, badly-mixed cocktail. At least Lilly wasn't home; there was no place like home, as bad as that place and its memories and what lay beyond those doors...

It's over now, Lilly thought to herself, walking down the corridors in search of dorm room sixteen, so there is not point in dwelling on the past. This was her home now. And she would have to deal with that. Seeing as this was her new 'home', she needed to know how to survive in such a place, other than the basic 'don't mess with someone twice your size' or 'keep your eyes on the floor'. She had been informed of her restrictions: anything highly flammable and anything particularly sharp, because of course she was some complete psycho-maniac desperate to relive the scene that had landed her here in the first place. Of course. It made her feel lucky, privileged even, to have been allowed her most valued possession: the hand-me-down iPod given to her on her thirteenth birthday, ironically the luckiest day of her life, she thought. Never again would Lilly take for granted the cracked plastic casing that held her fifty-one songs together, most of which were piano music, seeing as she didn't have the luxury of lessons herself. Even less of a chance now, she supposed.

Then there it was: dorm number sixteen. Even though Lilly couldn't say she expected some gold-plated, shining gateway to the doorstep of heaven, she did find herself mildly disappointed at how bland it was, just a plain old door, nothing like the new step forward into a new life that she had imagined. Oh well. Hopefully her roommate would be more interesting. Hopefully she would be sane. And not prepared to kill her at every twist and turn. Lilly swallowed. How easy was it to sneak a knife or a machete or something into this place anyway? Stop exaggerating.

Heart hammering, stomach clenching, Lilly turned the handle and stepped into her new home. The door whispered shut behind her with a sickening click.

Will pretended to be listening to the rules and nodded whenever the man said something, but really, she was wondering if her plan worked... After the long boring session of rules, I walked towards the dorms. I looked around for Dorm #16, but clearly didn't have to. I smiled as I seen the large man, wearing guard clothing. He was standing outside of my room and I walked up to him.
Please tell me you brought it.
The guard looked around and pulled out a laptop bag from his large bag. The guard gave her a 'look' and Will rolled her eyes. She stuck her hand down her pants and pulled out a stack of bills, most likely from her underwear.
You're lucky they didn't notice it when they patted me down.
Will gave the man her best devilish smile before unlocking the door to her room and entering.

When will got inside, she unpacked her bags instantly. When she was done, she jumped on the top bunk. There were two bunks, but there were also only suppose to be two people in here. Will shrugged it off. I guess I'll just have this whole bed to myself. Will excitedly rubbed her hands together and dug inside her laptop bag. There was obviously a laptop, which she wasn't allowed to have, important things that she could use for her computer, a few stacks of paper, a small bong, a large bong, 2 packs of cigarettes, a few casks and a huge bag of marijuana. Will cheered and she grabbed a piece of paper. She ripped a piece of paper off of the sheet and used it to roll a joint. Will dug inside her laptop bag, and found a zippo. Awesome. Willow packed everything back up in her bag and put if under her bed. Will cracked a window and lit up her joint. She heard the door open, and her heart almost dropped.

Lilly Chrome:

And there was her roommate. Smoking weed by the window. Something icy cold sunk deep into Lilly's bones, causing shivers to rattle her petite frame, as she began to realise just how real her residence at Greyson was, just how interspersed with today's teenage murderers and thieves and sociopaths she had found herself - but then again, didn't that make her like everybody else? Swallowing down a thick lump of nostalgia, a longing for the days when that wasn't the case, she walked into her new home, stiff step after stiff step, until she was at the vacant bed on the other side of the room, her eyes trained to the floor, nailed to her shoes solely by her nerves alone. Calm down, she thought, it's not like any of this is new to you. She supposed a weed-smoking roommate was far better than a chainsaw-wielding, psychopathic, violently bloodthirsty roommate after all; this way the only thing necessary to avoid would be the choking substance itself, instead of, well, a chainsaw-wielding, psychopathic, violently bloodthirsty roommate.

As quietly as she could, Lilly began unpacking her limited amount of clothing, placing them into a dresser beside her bed, and ensured she had everything she might need during her stay here; neither girl spoke during the process, and she was too anxious herself to venture a glance at the other in order to gauge her expression. Hopefully it wasn't one of pure, unfiltered hatred or anger, merely from walking in on her secretive, (and doubtlessly illegal), weed-smoking session. Perhaps she was afraid Lilly was the kind to slip a few words to the guards in exchange for more freedom, more of this, more of that; well, luckily for whoever the girl was and her little habits, Lilly was hardly the kind of person to do such a thing, or for that to even cross her mind. Truthfully, it was more because of her uncertainty in this new world, rather than any sort of 'delinquent sisterhood', but either way, she wasn't spilling secrets to anybody, not when considering the kind of enemies that could attract.

Once she had finished unpacking everything, she slumped onto the bed, unsure of what to do next. In the brief few seconds that Lilly had seen her, she guessed that the other girl was pretty, exceptionally so, which made her feel rather plain-faced in comparison, another forgettable and dull girl in a swirl of so many others. Better to be plain-faced than lying on the ground with a knife in your throat. She shuddered. You might as well try to be friends now, because you never know who your enemies will be later.

Suppressing an inward sigh and mustering her courage, Lilly fought her worry and turned to the other girl, smiling awkwardly, fidgeting with the hem of her jumper, "H-Hi, my name's, um, Lilly; it's nice, uh, it's nice to meet you...?" She hated how everything she said seemed to peter out into a question, "What's, uh, what's your name...?"

Will watched as Lilly did this kind of, stiff walk towards her bed, and instantly knew she wouldn't be a threat or that she wasn't as bad as everyone else around that place. Will continued to smoke her joint and looked out the window. Most people were inside their dorms but there were also a lot of others just walking around outside, most likely people that have been there for a while. Will exhaled, smoke coming out of her mouth, just thinking about how much she hated this place already.

Will took one last puff before licking her thumb and index fingers, crushing the tip of the joint. Will threw the joint in the trash and picked up a febreze that just "happened" to be on the desk. However, Will knew that her "loyal guard dog" put it there. Will sprayed it all around the room, even if the barred up windows were open while she was smoking, just to be on the safe side. Will stuck her arm through the bars and closed the window up, tight.

Will walked towards her bed and collapsed on the bottom bunk, closing her eyes when she heard the nervous stammer of that girl with the beautiful eyes. Will lifted her head up and looked at her. She chuckled and sat up quickly.
My name's Willow, but please call me Will. I don't know if I should believe you when you say it's nice to meet me or not, you don't seem to be quite sure of that yourself, Lilly.
Will chuckled a bit again and stood up. She walked a bit closer and bit her lip.
Uh, sorry that you had to walk in on me doing that. You don't really seem like the type of person who belongs in a place like this.
Will faced her back towards Lilly, to walk back to her bed but she froze and turned her neck slightly.
I'd appreciate it if you didn't tell anyone about that. I hear word spreads fast around here, and I could get in serious trouble... and get someone fired...
Will fully turned her body towards Lilly this time and smiled.
...You aren't exactly the type of person who gets pleasure from doing that kind of stuff, am I right?
Will suddenly realized how dirty that sounded and snorted a bit, not being able to be "serious" anymore.

Lilly Chrome:

So far so good: her roommate wasn't biting her head off. Yet. Only time could tell whether a full moon would turn her into some wild concoction of a ravaging were-wolf cross serial killer and 'funnily' enough, seeing as Lilly would be sharing this room with her twenty-four-seven, she would most likely be the first to find out. And wasn't that brilliant? Only, what, five or ten minutes into arrival and the majority of both her conscious and unconsciously wondering thoughts were consumed with the idea that somewhere, somehow, Greyson Reform would very rapidly become a murder scene - though she doubted that was anything unusual - and it would be her body they would find floating in a bloodied bathtub, or hanging from the uppermost rooftop spires by her bruised and swollen neck or... At some point, she needed to calm down.

“My name's Willow, but please call me Will,” Her new roommate spoke for the first time, seemingly so out of the blue that Lilly almost leapt from her nervously-chosen position hanging precariously at the edge of her bed to clinging desperately to the ceiling above; that is, until she gathered enough sense to realise she'd asked the question in the first place. Will. Her new roommate, "I don't know if I should believe you when you say it's nice to meet me or not, you don't seem to be quite sure of that yourself, Lilly," Will chuckled jovially as if this whole place was some kind of joke - it was, really; a sick, twisted joke, a nightmare, breathed upon their lives that now held no meaning more than staring between rows of towering, black bars, hoping that one day they might see their past again. There was no going back now.

“Uh, sorry that you had to walk in on me doing that. You don't really seem like the type of person who belongs in a place like this,” Admittedly, Lilly was more than slightly shocked that her roommate seemed so...friendly - apologising, sympathising; she had imagined the nicest possible inmate would be the cold-hearted yet quiet kind, steering clear of your business as long as you steered clear of theirs, though after witnessing her crush a joint between her fingers, Lilly knew there would be a similar exchange in the future. That was fine, perfect even, when she had her own secrets to keep; she had no intention of ratting Willow out, whether questioned or of her own volition.

“I'd appreciate it if you didn't tell anyone about that. I hear word spreads fast around here, and I could get in serious trouble... and get someone fired...”

"Of course not," Lilly had blurted, her words sounding so choked and tinny that she doubted Will had heard her; the other girl was sure to know that she wasn't that sort of person, wasn't she? Just by looking at Lilly, her worn jeans, her sneakers littered with numerous holes, one could see that she wouldn't stand out in such a way as that, slipping other people's secrets; she wanted to stay in the shadows, in the dark, for as long as she could, ironically.


"...You aren't exactly the type of person who gets pleasure from doing that kind of stuff, am I right?” At that, Willow snorted and Lilly peeked up to see the girl stifling laughter, finding that she was very soon giggling too, uncontrollably, enough to break through whatever awkwardness had encased her earlier, enough for her to feel like herself for a few moments.

"No...I'm...I'm not..." Still giggling, Lilly found her voice struggling through the gaps in her frequent bouts of laughter, "I'm...I'm...I don't...Seek...Seek pleasure....In that...kind of stuff." What a way with words; perhaps her roommate wasn't as vile as she had previously predetermined.

Will McIntomney

When Will's new roommate bursted into laughter with Will about the pleasure remark, Will looked at her with a shocked, yet amused look on her face. The started, and the troubled breathe made it even funnier to Will. She didn't expect the quiet, shy roommate that is definitely in a place she doesn't look like she belongs, to laugh at a stupid, yet hilarious and dirty "joke" such as that. Will, however, had absolutely no problem with that. Everyone has immaturity, sometimes Will more than others. Will was basically laughing at her roommate laughing and then she finally calmed down. Will cleared her throat and smiled and her new roommate, sliding her hands into her hoodie pockets.
Could I show you something?


Not exactly waiting for a response, Will pulled out her very high technology, and clearly extremely expensive laptop. She went and plopped down beside Lilly on her own bunk then opened her computer. When it came on, you had to go through a finger scanner, eye scanner (implanted right below the webcam) and a password. The password was so long, even Will didn't know how many letters, numbers or even spaces were in it. After all that, her desktop was filled with files. Like, literally. There wasn't a space left for another file. The background was an aquarium, except it was moving. Will decided to explain that part,
I hacked into a camera at an all exclusive and private aquarium that hasn't been released to the public eyes yet. My mom said that she needed "inspiration" and the daughter of the owner of the aquarium is a huge fan of my mom's fashions, so the owner let her in. I decided to come, have my own look around... do some hacking. Y'know, all that good stuff.
Will didn't mean to brag, and she certainly didn't mean to talk about her mother's "fashions". Will didn't realize it yet, but she probably just gave it away, that her mother was definitely someone important.

Will went through her videos and pictures with Lilly, sliding at the screen from right to left using the touch screen. As much as she didn't like to admit it, she wanted to be friends with this girl. She seemed like a really nice person to be around, and knowing someone in this place would be even better. She wouldn't have to feel alone anymore, no matter how much she tried to convince herself not to think like such a "wuss". Will put her laptop screen down and sighed. She set it beside her then turned to her new roommate.
I'm sorry, I hope that wasn't too much. I just have so much amazing things on there, that I haven't exactly been able to share with anyone else.
Will picked her laptop up and put it back in her bag. She turned to Lilly and half-smiled.
By the way, if you're not comfortable sharing anything with me, I totally understand. Don't feel... "obliged" to tell me anything, okay?

Lilly Chrome:

Once calm had settled softly over the two girls, distinguishing their sudden bout of hysteria, and Lilly found herself flushing with flaming embarrassment over her childish immaturity, Willow quickly slipped a slim, expensive-looking laptop from her bed and onto her lap, where she sat beside the other girl, without waiting for a response to her question. After a swift clattering of keys, flashing DNA tests, whose beams threw ribbons of light across Lilly's face, the computer finally yielded to its master, revealing a backdrop of moving, living marine animals; they were real. A shock of air whispered down Lilly's lungs as she gawked in a wild mix of awed amazement. Vividly coloured fish curled across the screen; wildlife bloomed unpredictably in the corners of the screen. This was unbelievable! But to the other girl, it appeared that this was completely normal to her. How on Earth could she have come across something like this?

"I hacked into a camera at an all exclusive and private aquarium that hasn't been released to the public eyes yet. My mom said that she needed "inspiration" and the daughter of the owner of the aquarium is a huge fan of my mom's fashions, so the owner let her in. I decided to come, have my own look around... do some hacking. Y'know, all that good stuff," Willow explained, eyes on the screen, concentrated on the product of her abilities: hacking. Hacking - that was how she had come to be here. So it wasn't murder, thank God; that was a load of Lilly's shoulders. Her roommate might be clever, cunning even, more so than she could ever hope to imagine, however she wasn't going to stab her to death any time soon; that was, if her assumptions were even correct.

Something else started to nag at Lilly's mind, pinching uncomfortably at her thoughts: 'a huge fan of my mom's fashions' - didn't that mean...her mom was someone important? Someone high-up? And that in turn meant that she must be Pureblood, right? Although it wasn't as though she despised Purebloods like most of her kind, she still wondered how someone of importance like Willow could find themselves tangled in the web of crime that the delinquents here weaved - how could her mom, if she was within a circle of elites, allow this to happen to her daughter? It wasn't exactly like Lilly could ask...So she kept her mouth firmly shut, despite her burning curiosity.

“I'm sorry; I hope that wasn't too much. I just have so many amazing things on there, that I haven't exactly been able to share with anyone else," Willow said whilst returning her laptop to its bag. Lilly felt a hint of sympathy twinge at her heart - she knew what the other girl had meant; she what it felt like herself. Loneliness, a monster within itself.

Her earlier worries evaporated for now, she managed a smile at her roommate and spoke, quietly: "Not at all; I found it really interesting."

And then Willow turned to her, a wary half-smile planted on her lips, "By the way, if you're not comfortable sharing anything with me, I totally understand. Don't feel... 'obliged' to tell me anything, okay?”

That had caught Lilly off guard. Her mouth opened and closed at least one or two consecutive times before she could even think of what she could say. For starters, she hadn't really planned to tell anyone anything before she came here; she also hadn't planned on finding that her roommate could be a possible ally of hers - well, not a crazed maniac, anyway.

All Lilly could manage in response to that was a muffled, "I'll...I'll keep that in mind..." before changing the subject as fast as she could, "So, you can hack into things? That's pretty cool. Where did you learn? I've never been smart enough to anything like that so you must be pretty intelligent, huh?"

Of course, as soon as she found herself steering the path of conversation alone, uncontrollably babbling words escaped Lilly's mouth before they could be forced to a halt. Great. The perks of being a socially awkward sixteen-year-old.

Will smiled when Lilly mentioned that she found the little "show" entertaining. Will collapsed onto her bed, sighing. She unzipped her baggy sweater and threw it at a chair across the room. Will always wore baggy clothing over her tight clothing, she didn't want anyone to see her curves, but since she was with a girl it didn't really matter. Will pulled her hair out of it's ponytail and kicked her shoes off. Will turned her body so she could look at Lilly... though she looked sideways from the angle that she was lying down at. No, she looked like she was sideways, but slightly sitting up. Will pushed the thought out of her head, realizing how stupid it was.

Will raised an eyebrow at Lilly when she started babbling but chuckled lightly.
Yes, I can hack into things. I taught myself when I was about 13, I think... and I wouldn't consider myself smart... I think the word is cunning. I don't mean to brag, but yeah... I'm bragging.
Will laughed a bit and sighed. She decided she would just come out and ask.
So... um, are you a pureblood?
Will sighed and sat up quickly.
I know I just said that you don't need to feel obliged to tell me anything, but I'm just really curious. I'm sorry. If you want I can tell you what I am!
Will never usually got this nervous about things, but she knew the kind of people that got put in this place. She didn't suspect Lilly to be like them but, still.

Lilly Chrome:

Cunning. It wasn't a particularly pleasant word; never had Lilly used it to describe a 'friend', (of sorts), before, but somehow it fit the other girl to be both friendly and cunning as a fox. Though, honestly, Lilly knew that making such early assumptions was fundamental to a fatal backstabbing; Willow could wake up to be a completely different person the next day - friendly, cunning and schizophrenic to boot. Well, for now she was simply cunning and kind, two qualities ideal for an ally, not that she would need one just yet...right? She hoped that was true anyway.

At the question that Willow suddenly asked, Lilly found herself frozen to the bed, knuckles as white as snow and wrapped tightly around one another, desperately clinging to something intangible and horribly out of her reach. She thought of home and her mother and father and the burning, burning house; the two men on the floor; red, red, red on the grass - horror; a knife; shadows! Stop it! Now was most certainly not the time; her roommate was merely asking for her lineage, not her backstory - not why, why she had been hurled into this new, frightening, exciting world.

Only a few tines had Lilly been asked that question, (seeing as it was often assumed upon witnessing exactly where she had once lived), and it was a severe blow to the heart; nonetheless, her answer would slip as easily as...as bloodied daggers through virgin throats... No! Inwardly scolding herself, she forced her mind elsewhere, to the hard, cold slap that was the truth and facts of life, untouched by sentiment. What did she usually answer to that question? Simple.

"Mutant," Lilly said; a forced uneasy smile, a dirty lie on her mouth, "Do you - and you? I mean, I - if you want to tell me, that is... You don't have to...I..."
