Amelia "Cody" Coulde

An eidetic memory is a completely human quirk of memory...

0 · 357 views · located in Earth

a character in “Paranormal Investigation Team”, as played by Robinwing

Description

Image
"I read it in a book once."

Name: Amelia Coulde
Nickname: Cody
Age: 22
Role: Investigator
Orientation: Bi
Powers: An eidetic memory. Cody remembers everything she's ever read, be it books on the occult, a license plate, even menus at restaurants. Let's just say, her parents were very much into the occult.

Personality

Likes:
- Being able to recall useful facts on cue
- Spooky places, abandoned places, ruins
- Mystery novels
- Helping people (living or dead)
- Solving mysteries
- Strawberries
- The investigating itself, the adrenaline rushes from it
- Jokes, lightening the mood

Dislikes:
- Not knowing things, being out of the loop
- Being helpless
- Overbearing people
- Not being able to figure something out
- Forgetting things
- Hospitals (Her mother died of cancer)
- Clowns (Long story)
- Frightening people
- Breaking promises

Personality: Cody is easy going, friendly, and witty. She can always call up a line to say or some plethora of knowledge that she's read in some year prior. She inherited an interest in the paranormal from her parents, and thus can be seen as very blase about the whole hullaballoo. She fears very little, and doesn't get freaked out easily, except for by clowns. She'd rather avoid that story, if it's all the same to you. She's been raised mostly by her father, after her mother died when she was 8, and he pretty much gave her and Blake the run of the book collection. As such, Cody has an encyclopedic knowledge of folklore and the occult, as well as a pretty good knowledge on the upkeep of cars and vans. She's very honest, and very loyal, but she also holds grudges kind of endlessly. Her good opinion, once lost, is lost forever. Cody can sometimes take a joke a little too far, but she always feels horrible about it afterwards. She loves going into the scarier spots and calling back jokes about her chances of dying, but only if the client is not in hearing distance. She loves to make people laugh, and considers joking on an investigation as "playing comic relief on legendary mode". Cody is very loyal to her family, and doesn't break promises. As such, she hasn't told anyone else in PIT that Blake is her brother, and that she's been keeping him updated on PIT's investigations.

Appearance

Hair Color: Naturally blonde, messily died dark brown
Eye Color: Hazel
Skin Tone: Pale as heck
Over all: Cody is very tall, and fairly thin, so that she looks somewhat stretched. She is very pale, but she does have a few freckles flecked over her skin, including an interesting set in the shape of the constellation Cygnus, on her collarbone. She usually wear a black blazer style jacket, over jeans or slacks, a pair of brightly coloured sneakers and a brightly coloured shirt, usually with a funny slogan.

So begins...

Normal people usually shed out cold sweat when they know they are bound to come across something eerie but not Madeline, in fact it was so normal for her that ordinary people grew skeptical of her abilities. She could care less about what they think, like the scientist who insisted on tagging along their current case. She did feel sorry for the newlyweds though, who would want to start a marriage with paranormal activities?

Her thoughts were then interrupted as Lexi started teasing them about comfort, she stayed quiet but gave off a shy smile. The girl had managed to snag the front seat again, next to Jack of course. She knew she would never have the courage to do that so she preferred seating by the first row just beside the entrance as Gabe sat in between her and Phoenix while Ramona and Cody sat with the scientist at the second row.

Both Phoenix and Cody retorted back on Lexi's teasing which made Maddie giggle as Lexi distributed the case files, she grabbed one herself but laid it down on her lap. She had reviewed the case over and over, she was usually the one in charge of the telephone so she knew first hand what the clients needed and not to mention she was the one who had listed the contents, it was just Jack who had finalized it and made it look official.

And even before she had drifted back to her thoughts, Phoenix began distributing some of her new babies and imply instructions. It made her smile, knowing that it will make solving the case easier. She wore her headset and tried testing it, "Working good so far" She pipped in and tested the hi-tech bracelet. "Where do you even get these stuff?" She wowed in amazement.

"Couldn't you just scream really loud if you're in trouble? The house isn't that big." Cody then stated. It made Maddie shake her head slowly as she turned around to widen her eyes at Cody. She placed her pointer finger on her lips and said, "Shh Cody... Don't start now. We're not even there yet." She then chuckled and playfully put out her tongue. "Maybe you are all just hungry. Brought some cupcakes, something sweet should start the case well." She then did her own distributing as she passed everyone the small cardboard box of cupcakes. She smiled and made sure that Gabe got the first two cupcakes, knowing her friend's appetite for anything.

Ramona Payne


"Oh, I'm just dandy, thanks for checking." Ramona responded from the back of the van in an overly pleasant voice, sarcasm obviously intended. She gave Alex her trademark friendly smirk before adjusting her tush on her seat and leaning forward so she could see past Cody, who was sitting to her right, and get a good look at the town from the window. It was a quiet, sleepy little town, it sort of reminded Ramona of where she grew up. She smiled slightly and continued to glance around the van once again. On her left sat Lawrence, the scientist who was tagging along with them for this case, something that Ramona wasn't at all happy about.
"Ready to see some ghosts?" Alex asked him from the front seat, obviously trying to pull his leg. Ramona smiled mischievously, joining in, "Well, when you do, and you need, you know, to jump into someones arms," Ramona bit back a smirk and spread out her arms, "I'm your girl." She held back a laugh and instead gave him a big, cheesy smile, then turned around before he could say anything to her.
"Put these on, like this." she heard Phoenix saying and she quickly focused her attention on her, realizing that she was passing out the new gadgets for the case. She listened carefully as she continued on, "I have calibrated them such that they all use the same frequency. Simply press the button here to talk, and people, please don't lose them okay? Or things are gonna get ugly." Ramona gave a couple small nods of understanding. When the box came to her, she took hers, looking down at it for a moment before she put it on. "Working good so far," she heard Madeline say. "Yep, me too," she confirmed.
Ramona watched as Phoenix produced another box from her bag, which evidently had a plain metal bracelet for each member of the team, nothing on it but a little button. When she got hers, she held it up to look at it, her face clearly revealing her thoughts of is this really necessary..?
"Press the button twice, and your current position will be sent directly to my laptop. Only use the bracelets when you are in serious trouble. You know what they say, safety first." There was the answer. Ramona sighed the smallest bit and shrugged, figuring it wasn't too big of a sacrifice if it kept everyone safer and made Phoenix's job easier, so she slipped it on.
Just then, she heard Cody pipe up from next to her, "Couldn't you just scream really loud if you're in trouble? The house isn't that big." Ramona smirked and looked to Phoenix, curious what her response would be. But just then, Madeline stepped in to mediate, "Shh Cody... Don't start now. We're not even there yet. Maybe you are all just hungry. Brought some cupcakes, something sweet should start the case well."
Ramona couldn't help but grin, typical, cheery Maddy. The box got passed around, and when it finally reached the back of the van, she gladly took one. "Ah, don't mind if I do." she smiled and took a huge bite out of hers, "Mmmmm, delicious." she said, with her mouth still partly full. She swallowed, then spoke, raising her voice so she could be heard from the front of the van, "You know what else'd be nice though? Some music." she had a feeling Jack wouldn't be all over the idea, wanting them to mentally prepare and such instead, but she grinned and continued, "I mean it. And if not, you know I'll just start singing instead." and to prove her point, began to sing the chorus of Elton Johns 'Bennie and the Jets', nodding her head along as she sang and nudging Cody, trying to get her to join in.

Amelia "Cody" Coulde

Cody looked over at Maddie as she gently reprimanded her. She shrugged with a blase "Sorry", before Maddie segued into the glorious bounties of cupcakes. Cody grinned wide, and punched the air as best she could in celebration. She also let out a woop. Because, cupcakes and ghost hunting, there was never a better day than one that included both.
"Huzzah!" She cheered, as she retrieved a cupcake for herself. She took a big bite, filling out her cheeks like a squirrel for a minute before she swallowed it down. She grinned and maneuvered her phone out of her pocket. With one hand, she quickly texted Blake, listed in her contacts as "Brother Mine". She actually had two contacts for Blake, one was for texting him stupid stuff, the other was for the more serious pass betweens of info, which was listed as simply "Blake". This way, people wouldn't get suspicious of knowing she texted her brother all sorts of dumb little things, but the text history was regularly cleared. They didn't know who "Blake" was, far as Cody knew, and she had a few contacts that she'd never actually texted.
i get cupcakes hahaha :)
She put her phone back and smiled to herself. She hear Ramona start singing, and felt the nudge of encouragement. She'd happily joined in at once, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Jack had put the classical music on. She let out a loud groan, but the grin on her face probably gave away it's teasing nature.

Blake Coulde

Blake had just about arrived at a local library, a red bricked old looking building, when his Cody-specific text alert went off, playing a stereotypical "badum-tsh" drumbeat. He pulled it from his pocket, his hand brushing against his inhaler, and checked it.
i get cupcakes hahaha :)
Well, that was pointless. He put his phone back into his pocket, rolling his eyes at his little sister. If she received any kind of sweet that Blake didn't get, she'd do this. Every time. Blake hung and shook his head, huffing a quiet chuckle. Oh well, they were siblings, picking on each other was their job. He briefly considered starting the history research without Cody, but he shook his head. He'd wait, at least until he could text Cody without fear of someone reading it over her shoulder accidentally. Especially Jack Baker. He knew where the library was now, and he'd read the signs, so he figured that was good enough until Cody texted him to come too. He estimated that the truck had plenty of a lead on him now, they wouldn't notice him following the same route to the house. He pulled back out of the parking lot, turned his car, and headed out for the street with the haunted house.

Ramona Payne


(super short post, I'm sorry xD I just wanted to post this before the moment passed)

"Hey! I have an excellent voice." Ramona stated, getting this jokingly, over the top offended on her face when Alex put her hands over her ears to block out her singing, while shouting, "Make it stop!" She could honestly understand why though, as she had been purposefully singing just a BIT off-key, knowing it would make it even more likely for Jack to cave and play some music. Which, he did, but unfortunately, it was none other than the boring, sleepy, classical station.
Ramona let out a heavy sigh, "Awwww, come ON." Just then, Alex changed the station to a mainstream pop station. It was definitely a step up from Jack's musical selection, but still not exactly what Ramona had in mind for the remainder of the trip. She still couldn't help nod her head along to the beat as she took another huge bite out of her cupcake. She swallowed, then spoke up, "What about the seventies station?! Who doesn't love the good ol' seventies?" she looked around the van to see if all were in favor, but before anyone could say anything, she broke into an extremely pitchy rendition of September by Earth Wind and Fire, grinning and watching Cody, expecting her to join in.

Maddie could help herself but too giggle at all the commotion, she knew it was their way of coping up with the unspoken word- fear. Yes, the group has been dealing with this kind of stuff for a long period of time (though no one really knows how long since some of them just popped out from nowhere and started tagging along in assignments) yet fear was one thing they could never eliminate.

Even Maddie herself couldn't explain the agitation in her feelings. It was a mix of excitement, adrenaline rush, sadness, shock and she could go one with the list. And if, and only if, they have proven that some element exists in the case, then they are in for another rush of different emotions.

Sometimes ghosts makes their selves felt by sharing their emotions to the humans. If they died because of an accident great sadness and longing for someone can envelope an investigator. If they died because of murder, it is sure that you'd feel hate, remorse and anger. What's worse is they could become violent. It all really depends on how an investigator would prepare their selves on what lies ahead.

Maddie then hummed with the tune and swayed her head, nodded and gestured at her nose at Phoenix as the cupcake frosting covered her nose. And just as she heard their guest about to pipe in an impatient question of, “Excuse me, but are we there y – ” Ramona then began rocking the song 'September' and filled the van with her energy. She gave the scientist an apologetic smile as if saying, "Sorry, but you signed up for this."

She then turned her gaze back on the driver's seat and continued to shake her head and giggled as she saw the frustration in Jack's eyes when she sneaked a look at the rear view mirror. She caught herself staring too long in his captivating eyes, one of the few things she constantly notices about him. She then quickly pulled her gaze away and looked outside the window to see that a few concrete houses has started filling up the once empty road side. Which probably means they're near. She hugged her backpack tighter and braced herself for the case- hopefully they'd get the much needed information and fast.

Just then a familiar face flashed in her mind, it was the guy who kept on showing up in their assignments. He called introduced his self as Blake and somehow he always managed to supply the answer to one of the missing links in their cases, she knows how Jack and the rest feels about the stranger but she felt like he really never meant any harm. She smiled and continued to look at the colonial designed houses. She wished she could live in one of those- haunted free of course.
