Nickname: 'Row // Only to some. James // Those wishing to make fun of her.
Sexuality: Straight
Likes:
- Arrow craves anything artistic. Without it, she's like a druggie without their fix. Drawing, painting, writing, reading, it's all the same to her, and it's all so different. If she can get her hands on a book, she'll read it. Or if she can find an empty canvas, she'll paint. And she's fairly good at it all too.
- Music. It keeps her balanced. You'll rarely catch her without her phone or iPad. And yes, that means even in school. The teachers have come to understand that without it she is sort of..a nuisance.
- A girl likes to be in charge, and Arrow isn't any different. No matter what situation she's forced into, you can count on her to collect her wits and jump ahead of everyone else to take charge.
- Sungie, she loves that boy. If she could, well, she'd probably kidnap him and make him live in her closet. Anytime she has a chance to be around him, she's glued to his side.
- Even though she doesn't let it show, to most people at least, Row craves any type of knowledge she can obtain. She's a smart cookie, and she doesn't mind people making fun of her for it.
- Cuddling! I know, such a shock. But if you can get her too, she secretly loves it!
Dislikes:
- 'James' can't stand the populars. Multiple reasons for this, one would be the fact they call her James. Another being that they treat her Sungie so badly. And lastly because most the cheerleaders are whores that get whatever they want, and the jocks are pretty much the same.
- People, just in general. Arrow can't stand them, the way they talk, or walk, or joke. It's all..frustrating.
- Something she rarely gets is artistic block, but when she does, you should find a place to hide. Times like these she usually destroys things and, like the teachers said, becomes a 'nuisance'.
- It doesn't matter that she's a good singer, she still hates it. And if you ever catch her singing outloud, she will make you promise not to tell anyone. The only person she'll sing in front of is her Sungie.
- Quietness, she can't stand it. When the awkward silences come around she feels like jumping up and screaming, just to make it go away.
Personality:
Arrow doesn't mind being the center of attention, actually she loves it. But not for the reasons most the populars like to be. She's a rebel. Awkward, weird, strange, crazy, and she wants everyone to know it. Why hide? Row is blunt and painfully honest, if you want someone to sugar coat something, don't go to her. Not that she has many friends, so already not many people go to her. It's like they're scared of her. The honesty, the loudness, the crazy. It's her, and she isn't afraid to show everyone that.
Row is fiercely independent, needing to have the space to make her own decisions about her next step. She does not believe in or follow rules and regulations, as this would prohibit her ability to "do her own thing". Her sense of adventure and desire for constant action makes her prone to becoming bored rather quickly. Although she does not respect the rules of the "system", she follows her own rules and guidelines for behavior faithfully. She will not take part in something which violates her personal laws.
She is an action-oriented person. She likes to be up and about, doing things, which means she won't sit behind a desk all day and do long-range planning. Adaptable and spontaneous, she responds to what is immediately before her. She usually has strong technical skills, and can be as effective technical leaders.
History:
Arrow has been in and out of foster care since she was seven years old. At first she was moved around a lot, every other month. It was her fault though, for always running away and getting in trouble. Finally, when she was fourteen, they put her in a..not-so-nice home, she was the only kid still there and the woman's husband was always on 'business' trips. The woman and her made a deal. Every month when they sent Arrow her check[it's about $300 dollars], the woman got it. In return, Arrow got to do whatever she wanted, and the woman wouldn't bother her.
That's when she started her business. What business?, you ask. She would sell her drawings, her paintings. Sometimes she would write stories for people, or make them various things. Another thing she did on the side, because it wasn't very safe, was work on peoples phones or computers. She found a way to update their software without a cost, and she could get rid of viruses or hack anything they needed. It wasn't the safest way to make money, but it did get her a lot of it.
Recently she'd been sleeping in the school library, getting her food and water out of vending machines[or more so stealing them]. But the principle has suspected of someone doing this, so she had to stop staying there for awhile. Now she is sleeping on a bus most nights, but no one knows because she still sneaks into her foster home house every morning to shower and get new clothes. Even more recently she's been trying to find a way to tell her friend Sungie about this, and maybe ask him if he would mind her crashing at his house some nights. But again, she's still trying to find a way to even bring up the point that she's been sleeping on a bus. Though she thinks he knew that she used to sleep in the library.
Lastly, we're going to jump back in time a bit here, to when she met Kang for the first time. Arrow was in the art room one day, listening to music and painting some crazy colorful flower thing. Sometime during all this the boy had snuck into the room and hid in the closet. Not knowing this, she continued painting. But soon she ran out of red and had to go fetch more. When she opened the closet she had a minor freak out, accidently sending paint all over the two. Ever since she's loved him.
