Essex Relationships

a part of “Storybook: A Grimm World”, a fictional universe by mombie.

(CLOSED TO CS FOR THE TIME BEING) A curse vanquished all fairy-tale creatures from their enchanted realm, and they were banished to Essex, Connecticut with no memory of what happened. That all changes today, for the world of fairytales has awakened in everyone.

Essex Relationships

Tips: 0.00 INK Postby mombie on Sat Apr 17, 2021 12:05 pm

This is where relationships get really tricky, but we have plenty of time to figure them out! Character relationships will be two-fold: one in their Essex identities and one for their fairytale identities. I will have CS up for this as soon as I have a decent amount of characters. You may also use your own CS if you so choose! You can use a separate post for the Essex/Enchanted Realm relations, or you can put them together. It's up to you!

Ricardo Trujillo

The Beast / Mariano Di Vaio / #4d2915 / mombie







|| ◑ Neutral || â˜ē Friends || ❀ Best Friends || â™Ĩ Love Interest || ⚤ Boyfriend/Girlfriend || ☠ Enemies ||



Image Image Nora Weiss - Evil Queen [SYMBOL]
RELATIONSHIP GOES HERE

Image

Image Image Lorelei Voigt - White Swan Princess [â™Ĩ]
While most of the men in town might be more delighted with her fiery twin, Ricardo finds himself drawn to the more demure grace of the doe-like blonde. Whenever he actually leaves his manor, he finds himself watching her from afar; a stalker, but not in the way a filthy predator might. He often visits places that she does, pretending to occupy himself with whatever. Deep down inside, he can tell she's just like him; lonely and shaded. He doesn't know what it is, but he's profoundly drawn to her by something he cannot fathom. He doesn't know why he can't approach her. She's flawlessly beautiful, but a bit too kind for her own good. She kicks his protective instincts into high drive, and he doesn't like how others around her treat her. They don't think he notices, but he does. He's just waiting for that moment he can let them know without also putting her in harm's way.

Image

Image Image Liesl Voigt - Black Swan Princess [☠/◑]
Ricardo might show her what a real man with manners and chivalry means, but he doesn't like her at all. She's too arrogant and sexually adventurous for him. He's a man of tradition, so the type of woman that Liesl portrays is not something he's overly fond of. Call it sexism or misogyny - whatever you want - he's the only man in town that's not about to be all up in that. It's crazy because he's also immoral in his own ways, but it feels strange to see a woman act in that way. He's actually no better than Adrien Duval or Liesl in terms of morality and character. Hypocritical. She probably sees him as a sexist pig that has something against women with a sense of agency, but he doesn't care. He doesn't have to accept her, and she doesn't have to accept him. So long as she keeps her hands off of her sister, he will still open doors for her and make her wish she could spend the night with him.

Image

Image Image Adrien Duval - Gaston [☠]
It would seem that the rivalry between Gaston and The Beast is strong enough to carry over into the real world. Ricardo knows of his criminal dealings, yet Adrien managed to pin the title of Mafioso on him instead. It was rather easy given Ricardo's rich and lavish lifestyle and his infrequent visits into town. The people hardly know him as well as they do the cunning and charismatic Adrien Duval. Their rivalry is epic in the Enchanted Realm, but it's quieter here where Ricardo waits for the moment he can take him down. If Lorelei wasn't in his way, he'd show Adrien what it means to be a Mafioso. Their feud in Essex is borne from unfinished business in the Enchanted Realm.

ricardo trujillo x the beast x ★ â™Ĩ
Image
"He's a kind and sweet man. If only Essex could see that."

Lorelei's encounters Ricardo have usually been fleeting or from the opposite side of the library. But he has been nothing but kind and polite to her whenever she sees him. He likes to keep to himself, which she can understand, but she thinks the vile rumors around Essex play part in this. While she has no proof that they are wrong, she believes in her heart that he is a good person and most of those rumors are Adrien's own doing. From what she's seen, Lorelei is one of the few people Ricardo actually talks to. Others seem either intimidated by him or want to bed him.




Image Image
x
dumaine leroux x the shadow man x ◑
Image
"I don't know him well enough to judge him."

Dumaine has always presented himself as a kind gentleman. Lorelei hasn't had many reasons to go visit a tax man when she isn't paid for the work she's doing. Their encounters are little more than passing one another on the street. But she has no issue with the man one way or another. He always greets her with a smile and she does the same.




Image Image
x
nora weiss x the evil queen x ◑
Image
"The principal... I believe?"

Lorelei doesn't know if she's ever had an actual conversation with Nora. She's heard rumors and whispers, but nothing more. She doesn't put much stock into rumors. She hasn't seen one way or another. Lorelei will make her own judgements when she comes across the woman, if their paths cross.




Image Image
x
liesl voigt x the black swan princess x ✘
Image
"Always the golden child."

Lorelei has always lived in Liesl's shadow. No matter when she did better in school than her sister, didn't get in trouble with the law, or whatever else, she always was the ugly duckling. Liesl knows she is favored by their father and takes every chance she can get to rub it in Lorelei's face. Liesl loves nothing more than to torment her. Their relationship has grown to be quite toxic over the years. Lorelei takes whatever chance she has to steer clear of her sister and father, which is why she is often found in the library or ballet studio.




Image Image
x
grayson hughes x robin hood x ◑
Image
"He tries to do right by Essex."

Lorelei and Grayson don't really cross paths. Most of that due to the fact that she's never had a run in with the law. Lorelei is always one to follow the rules and behave. He probably doesn't know who she is and she only knows him as Officer Hughes. But he makes her feel safe within the town, unlike the other officers.




Image Image
x
john carpenter x flynn rider x ◑
Image
"Umm... who?"

Lorelei and John are not the type to hang out in the same circles. She might have passed him on the street, or eaten at the diner at the same time. But if she saw him, she wouldn't be able to place his name. Lorelei hasn't heard much about him either. So, to her, he's just a name she quickly forgets.




Image Image
x
adrien duval x gaston x ✘
Image
"He's the worst sort of man."

Lorelei had nothing to do with Adrien at first. He was just some rich snob that lived on the edge of town. But when her father tried to double cross him, she was forced to pay the price. She was sent to work for him as payment for her father's transgressions and Adrien has been nothing but vile. Every day with him eats away at a fraction of her happiness. He has a subconscious ability to make everyone he encounters feel inadequate, like wasted space in his presence and in Essex.




Image Image
x
john waldmann x the huntsman x ◑
Image
"I've heard he's good at his job."

Lorelei has never had a reason to hire a private investigator. But she's heard that John Waldmann is the man to call if the need were to arise. She's seen him around town here and there, but she can't recall if they've ever crossed paths enough to hold a conversation.




Image Image
x
bermuda siren x ursula x ◑
Image
"I've heard of them but I don't think we've actually met."

It's hard to live in Essex and not hear about Bermuda. Everyone has heard of them to one extent or another and that's not different for Lorelei. Rumors are quite wasted on her, because she'd make up her own opinions about people. Bermuda might be a bit more outgoing that what she is used to. But she's hasn't officially met them, so she really has no opinions one way or the other.




Image Image
x
liana roth x the princess snow white x ❀
Image
"She is my oldest and dearest friend."

Lorelei and Liana have been inseparable since they were young girls. Only having a year's difference in age, they got to spend most of their time in school together and then whatever time outside of school as well. Lorelei has always been the mom type, helping her dear naive friend. They both definitely fall into that category of too nice, if there is such a thing. They've always been bubbly and welcoming, and they spend a lot of their time together volunteering and helping those in need.




Image Image
x
paisley lawrence x belle x ❀
Image
"People often say when you know you know."

Paisley hadn't been in Essex for very long, but her and Lorelei were quick friends. For meeting not long ago, she can't recall which encounter they had that solidified their friendship. It probably was running into one another at one of the small bookshops or the library. Their mutual love for reading was the catalyst for their quickly growing friendship. They might not have know each other long, but Lorelei considers her one of her dearest friends.




Image Image
x
hugo lund x prince charming x ✘
Image
"He's like a diet Adrien. Easier to stomach but still annoying."

Lorelei knows Hugo well enough. He spends enough time around Adrien that she knows him fairly well. Not that it is something to brag about. She doesn't know if he actually knows her name or not. Honestly, Lorelei might be all but invisible to him... Just another one of the help. But he is a lot like Adrien just a bit more tame. Which is enough for her to steer clear of him.




Image Image
x
olive fitzgerald x wendy darling x ◑
Image
"I don't dislike her."

Lorelei has no problem with Liv. But she generally steers free of her because Liesl can often be found in close proximity. And if her sister isn't with Liv, she worries that anything she says or does would just be gossiped about to Liesl later. Perhaps in a different life without her sister, Lorelei and Liv could have been friends. But now, in Essex, she doesn't really give that a chance to happen.




Image Image
x
ben thompson x captain hook x ◑
Image
"I don't know him well, but he's always been polite to me."

Lorelei can't recall every having a conversation with Ben. She goes to his diner about once a week and is sure to greet him whenever she sees him. But beyond that, they haven't really conversed. She has no problems with him. They just haven't found a reason to interact more.




Image Image
x
ciaran paine x will scarlet x ◑
Image
"He looks like a nice enough man."

Lorelei has seen Ciaran around town, passed him on the streets and what not. Of course, she'll always smile and say hi, but beyond that she can't recall if they ever had a genuine conversation. She's passed by the house he's been building and knows he is friends with Officer Hughes, but beyond that she doesn't know much about him.




Image Image
x
dr. henry fines x dr. jekyll & mr. hyde x ◑
Image
"Sometimes I wonder if I should visit him, if I had the money."

Frankly, Lorelei hasn't met Dr. Fines, because she hasn't had need of a therapist. Perhaps she has, but she hasn't had the money. He seems like a nice enough man and a professional, but they haven't crossed paths. And she doubts she'll have the time or funds to ever seek him out professionally.

Image
"He's hot, but doesn't seem to know I exist."

Liesl has definitely noticed Ricardo. He's hot, without a doubt. But for some reason, he won't give her the time of day. Sure, he'll open the door for her if she's heading that way, but other than that she might as well not exist. But then again, he doesn't really see him show any women much attention. Either way, it doesn't stop her from still trying to flirt with him on occasion. You never know, someday she might get somewhere.




Image Image
x
dumaine leroux x the shadow man x ◑
Image
"I like his accent."

Liesl and Dumaine don't have many instances where they cross paths, aside from tax season. She sees him around town every so often and he might occasionally stop into the bar, but she doesn't know much about him. And while she finds him attractive, she rarely goes out of her way to chase a man.




Image Image
x
lorelei voigt x the white swan princess x ✘
Image
"She makes it so easy to ruffle her feathers."

Liesl and Lorelei have never had a closer relationship. Lorelei has always resented Liesl for being the favorite child... Which she was. Since young children, Liesl has always been able to get away with anything while her sister was never good enough. It was an odd balance, but she didn't care. Liesl loved being put on a pedestal. It only made her grow more derogatory and demeaning toward her sister. Her day isn't complete if she hasn't found some way to torment Lorelei. That is one thing she will go out of her way to do.




Image Image
x
grayson hughes x robin hood x ◑
Image
"His ass does look good in that uniform."

There isn't much of a reason for Liesl to cross paths with Officer Hughes. From what she's seen he's always busy and always looks tired. She's rarely seen him stop into the bar unless he was meeting up with John Waldmann or something. They know each other's names, but nothing more. Liesl might have tried flirting with him once or twice, but he didn't seem to pick up on it in the slightest... Or perhaps he wasn't in the least bit interested. His loss.




Image Image
x
john carpenter x flynn rider x ◑ ★ âĨ
Image
"Who doesn't like a bad boy?"

Liesl always enjoys another handsome man to set her sights on in town and John is no exception. He's not one to shy away from her flirting, instead giving it right on back. She honestly cannot remember if they've slept together... probably. He's in the bar often enough that they get to chat every now and then. He's not bad on the eyes, so she doesn't mind wasting a little time on him.




Image Image
x
adrien duval x gaston x ◑ ★ âĨ
Image
"Beauty and bank."

They've known of each other for awhile. Hard not to when her sister works for Adrien. But they've rarely had an encounters beyond a brief exchange of sex eyes when they catch each other in public. They've always had this sort of cat and mouse banter and sometimes it doesn't even involve words. Liesl knows full well that Adrien is watching her and he knows she likes it. It's only a matter of time before they're naked and horizontal.




Image Image
x
john waldmann x the huntsman x ★ âĨ
Image
"He is the dilf of my dreams."

They've become friendly with how much time he's spent at the bar and, unlike some men, he's not half bad to talk to either. Liesl has been drooling over John for awhile. There's something about him that just gets her all hot and bothered. Perhaps it's his deep voice or the silver fox look he has going on. Or maybe it's just the fact that he is an older man with enough experience putting babies into women. She couldn't put her finger on it. But boy does she want him.




Image Image
x
bermuda siren x ursula x ◑
Image
"Who doesn't know them?"

Of course Liesl knows of them. It's hard to be in a small town like Essex as a drag queen and not stand out. But from what she has seen Bermuda loves the attention. They haven't actually shared a conversation from Liesl's recollection but she doesn't have an issue with them. Neither of them really run in the same circles.

liana roth x the princess snow white x ◑ ✘
Image
"Is it possible to be too friendly?"

Liana has been Lorelei's best friend since childhood, which is enough for Liesl to not really bother with her. She can recall at one point Liana tried to also befriend her, but she thinks Lorelei talked her out of it. Honestly, Liana seems a few fries short of a happy meal. She's so naive it's hard not to take advantage of it. Liesl will mess with her from time to time, but more often than not Lorelei steps in. Spoil sport.




Image Image

paisley lawrence x belle x ◑ ✘
Image
"Do all nice girls flock together?"

Paisley hasn't been in town long. Liesl doesn't really know when she arrived, just when her and Lorelei quickly became inseparable. Her being friends with her sister was enough for Liesl to not bother with her. Unlike Liana, Paisley actually seems to have a back bone. Liesl might have tried pestering her once or twice, but the girl is feisty and takes away whatever fun could be had from it. It'd just end in a fight. But the girls couldn't be more polar opposites, so it's rare that they'd run into one another.




Image Image

hugo lund x prince charming x ★ âĨ
Image
"I don't normally like blondes, but I make an exception for him."

Liesl and Hugo don't necessarily run in the same circles. But until Adrien, he tends to frequent the bar more often. They get along well enough, even better in bed. Their relationship is casual and they've occasionally relied on one another in the wee hours of the night when they're lonely and in need of company. Are they couple material? Not likely. But they are pretty in sync under the sheets.




Image Image
x
olive fitzgerald x wendy darling x ❀
Image
"She's my ride or die ginger bitch."

The pair spend a lot of their down time together and even bug each other at their respective jobs. They've been friends since school and only seemed to get closer and more wild since they graduated. There's nothing the two love more than sharing whatever juicy gossip transpired that day at the diner or bar. If there is anyone who knows the secrets of the people in Essex, it would be Liv and Liesl.




Image Image
x
ben thompson x captain hook x ◑ ✘
Image
"He's moodier than most women I know."

Ben is a hard nut to crack. Some days he can be detestable, while others he joins in on the salacious conversations Liesl and Liv have when the diner is slow. It's hard to know which Ben you'll get each day. Liesl thinks he has a particular sore sport for her, perhaps it's because she's around too much. Either way, he's not all bad and also who can blame him... Too much Essex is enough to make anyone grumpy.




Image Image
x
ciaran paine x will scarlet x ◑ âĨ
Image
"I like how weird he gets when I flirt."

Ciaran is one of the regulars at the bar, so Liesl sees him quite frequently. Their personalities aren't the best mesh, but it's friendly conversation and not a bad face to look at. She doubts he'll ever agree to go to bed with her, but that doesn't stop her from flirting with him. He's too hot to not remind him of it on a regular basis.

x
ricardo trujillo x the beast x ◑
Image
"Regardless of the rumors, he's been no problem to me."

Grayson knows the rumors. And while Ricardo keeps to himself, Gray finds it hard to believe he's behind the organized crime in Essex. He's been trying to get to the bottom of that for a number of years now and everything that pointed to Mr. Trujillo was a dead end lead that looked fabricated rather than real. Until proved guilty, Grayson has no problem with the man. He's always been nothing but polite and generous.




Image Image
x
dumaine leroux x the shadow man x ◑
Image
"He seems nice enough"

Dumaine and Grayson's interactions have been few and far between. The most they've talked is when Gray gets his taxes done every year... Like everyone else in Essex. He hasn't had enough time around him to know whenever he likes the man or not. He's a classy gentleman, but doesn't seem to have a superiority complex. He seems alright to Grayson.




Image Image
x
nora weiss x the evil queen x ◑
Image
"I can't say we've ever spoken."

Grayson knows of Nora, just as he knows of most of the people in town. Essex was too small not to. He had heard that she is quite the force when it comes to the way she runs school. But Grayson is not much of the type to let other peoples' opinions effect his opinions. She's dating John, so she can't be all bad.




Image Image
x
lorelei voigt x the white swan princess x ◑
Image
"She seems like a nice enough girl."

Grayson and Lorelei have crossed paths on occasion. They both have been nothing but cordial to each other and friendly. But other than that, they don't really see each other often unless they cross paths at the diner. Lorelei isn't the type of woman to really cross the polices' radar, which makes it easy for them to go about their lives without bump into each other often. But their mutual friendship with Liana gives them more reasons to run into one another. Although her employer does keep him a bit at bay.




Image Image
x
liesl voigt x the black swan princess x ◑
Image
"Everyone in Essex has heard of her reputation."

Liesl and Grayson don't have many reasons to run into one another. They both run in pretty separate circles. There might have been a time or two where she tried her seductress ways on him, but Gray is relatively oblivious when someone is flirting with him. Not to mention he's not all that interested in her... Or casual sex. But he's heard his fair share of stories from John and some of the other men in Essex.




Image Image
x
john carpenter x flynn rider x ❀ ✘
Image
"I know he could be a better man if he wanted to be."

There was a point in time where John and Grayson were inseparable. They had been friends for a very long time, but as they grew into adults, their lives took them in separate directions. Grayson joined law enforcement while John moved towards more illegal means of income. Gray still cares for his friend and wishes that someday he'll come to realize that a life of crime is no life, but it's fallen on deaf ears thus far.




Image Image
x
adrien duval x gaston x ✘
Image
"His charms don't work on me."

Grayson is not so easily fooled by Adrien's false charity and charisma. He knows that something else is going on behind the scenes, but getting to the bottom of it is a whole other story. While so much of the rumors and whatever else point to Ricardo, all the leads turn up cold or look to be the result of fabrication. There is only one person who hates Ricardo enough to try and frame him... and that's Adrien. There's something to that.




Image Image
x
john waldmann x the huntsman x ★
Image
"He's a good and honest man."

Grayson and John have worked together off and on for quite some time now. And while John's work goes to whomever pays, he still knows the man to be a good and lawful person. They have grown a working relationship and friendship with their time together. Grayson knows that if John didn't have kids, he'd be one of the men right out there with him trying to get to the bottom of the crime in Essex. But he would never ask that of it. Even though Gray doesn't have a family, he understands the importance of them.




Image Image
x
bermuda siren x ursula x ◑
Image
"Can't say we've had many interactions."

Bermuda and Grayson don't really hang in the same circles. That isn't to say that Grayson doesn't know of them or hasn't crossed their path from time to time. After all, he is a cop, so he runs into everyone in Essex at one point or another. For the most part, Bermuda isn't really a concern of Gray's because they never seem to cause trouble or stir the pot. Generally, the less he knows of people in Essex, it tends to be for the best. It means they aren't getting into trouble.




Image Image
x
liana roth x the princess snow white x ★ ♡
Image
"She's one of the few people who makes the time for me."

Liana and Grayson have known each other for quite some time, dating all the way back to High School. They always got along well. And while Gray would never admit it, he's had a crush on her for as long as he could remember. And while Gray and Greg always seemed to have a little rivalry since teenagers, Greg always seemed to come out ahead... Especially when it came to Liana. Grayson is not the type of man to try and seduce someone away from their partner. He is happy to have Liana in his life... Even if it's only as a friend. It hurts, but it's better than nothing.




Image Image
x
paisley lawrence x belle x ★
Image
"She gets herself into trouble but is harmless."

Paisley hasn't been in town for too long, but she has been quick to make an impression on a lot of the residents in Essex. There have been multiple occasions where her own adventuring has gotten her into a stick situation, but luckily enough, Grayson always manages to show up at the right time. They both get along fairly well and also have a mutual friend in Liana. She's nice company.




Image Image
x
hugo lund x prince charming x ◑ ✘
Image
"You are the company you keep."

Grayson hasn't spent much time around Hugo aside from when he goes to the bank and Lund just so happens to be there. To be honest, Gray generally avoids the man because he imagines he can't be much better than Adrien. The pair are the closest the other has to friendship. One of them is bad enough, but two? Grayson thinks that Hugo might not be as bad as his shittier counterpart, but he avoids them both unless it involves police business.




Image Image
x
olive fitzgerald x wendy darling x ◑
Image
"She seems decent enough."

Grayson sees Liv just about every day when he goes into the diner for his daily coffee. She's always nice and friendly. They will chit chat about whatever, but it's nothing more than two acquaintances passing the time. Outside of the diner, neither of them tend to hang around the same people or places, so there isn't much to base their relationship on beyond that.




Image Image
x
ben thompson x captain hook x ◑
Image
"He's a bit grumpy, but I have no issues with him."

Similarly to Liv, Grayson sees Ben daily whenever he goes in to get his coffee. Ben and him always share pleasantries and a small bit of chit chat about the weather or whatever else. They aren't friends by any means, but they both get along well enough. Grayson has no issues when it comes to Ben or his diner. Perhaps at first he was taken a back by the way Ben treated Liv, but he quickly grew to realize it was just their own weird banter.




Image Image
x
ciaran paine x will scarlet x ★
Image
"Foster care brings people together."

Ciaran and Grayson grew up as orphans together in the same foster home. As most children do, they grew closer trying to find something stable in their lives. Eventually as they grew up, life pulled them apart for some time. But now, they both reside in Essex. Their friendship is more like family or brothers where they care about each other and look after each other, but Ciaran also drives Grayson crazy a lot, like a brother would.




Image Image
x
dr. henry fines x dr. jekyll & mr. hyde x ◑
Image
"Never been to the doc, but he is a nice guy."

Whether or not Grayson needs to go to the local shrink is debatable, but regardless, he has not gone to visit Dr. Fines. They've ran into each other on a couple of occasions and the man always is polite and personable. Gray has no issues with the Doctor and believes him to be an upstanding citizen.

Image Image
x
ricardo trujillo x the beast x ✘
Image
"The scum of fucking Essex."

Adrien and Ricardo may as well be the town's longest lasting and possibly most toxic feud in Essex. For as long as they could remember the men have always hated one another. Both men couldn't be more different, but at the same time, they are also scarily similar. They both live on opposites sides of town and rarely cross paths, but Adrien still often tries to get ahead of him whenever possible, even hiring private investigators to try and help frame Ricardo for things he did not commit.




Image Image
x
dumaine leroux x the shadow man x ◑
Image
"Every businessman needs a tax man."

Dumaine is an upstanding man that conducts his business with respect and discretion. Adrien has been working with him for years and has no complaints. The two aren't on friendly terms by any means. But a solid business relationship goes a long way in Adrien's eyes. He also doesn't find himself as repulsed by Dumaine as he does with other Essex residents, but perhaps that is because the man actually has an impeccable fashion sense.




Image Image
x
lorelei voigt x the white swan princess x ◑
Image
"I suppose she's nice to look at."

Adrien couldn't give a rat's ass about Lorelei one way or another. She is there to serve a purpose... And that purpose is fulfilling a debt her father incurred. She does her job adequately at best. He would have preferred Liesl being his personal assistant, but how much work would really get done with her running around? Adrien enjoys treating Lorelei however he likes, which tends to be shitty. It's the one person in town he doesn't have to pretend around.




Image Image
x
liesl voigt x the black swan princess x ★ â™Ĩ
Image
"That woman could get whomever whenever she wanted."

Liesl could wrap most mean around her finger and Adrien is no exception. No, he does not turn into a whipped boy at the presence of a beautiful woman. But when he sets his sights on one the hunt doesn't stop until he has conquered. She is gorgeous, seductive but also devious. She is not like the other women in town, and that is something he enjoys quite a lot. He has no intentions of marrying her, but he will get her naked. That he is sure of.




Image Image
x
grayson hughes x robin hood x ✘
Image
"The one cop not on my payroll."

Adrien has the entire police department in his pocket... aside from Grayson. The goody two-shoes is determined to bring him down. He is good at covering tracks and sending leads in Ricardo's direction, but Office Hughes always manages not to fall for them and comes sniffing back around like a wayward pup. He is a nuisance that is getting in Adrien's way.




Image Image
x
john waldmann x the huntsman x ◑
Image
"He's an honorable man that does his job."

On multiple occasions, Adrien has hired John to help him dig up some dirt on Ricardo or even plant evidence against him. Of course, he never lets the P.I. into the truth of the matter. But John does his job without any questions besides pay, which Adrien gives a substantial sum. Their relationship is purely professional, but there is no bad blood... At least for now.




Image Image
x
paisley lawrence x belle x ◑ â™Ĩ
Image
"Who doesn't like a new girl?"

Does Adrien even know her name? Not likely. But she's pretty on the eyes and gracious with the compliments. There's also something about her that he can't quite put his finger on. He doesn't know what it is, but it causes his gaze to linger for a fraction of a second longer.




Image Image
x
hugo lund x prince charming x ★ ❀
Image
"Perhaps my only real friend in Essex."

Hugo and Adrien are your standard definition of "bros". They both are business men... of a sort and love to objectify women. There is also some competitiveness between them, but what relationship between men isn't, at least, a little competitive? It's all in good fun. Plus, they both know who would win in the end.

"I found her book very insightful."

Roman had never met Mahin before the silent auction, but that doesn't mean he didn't know of her. Spending his time on the road, his major form of entertainment is reading. He has read her book at least twice and found it very informative. He finds it curious that a woman such as herself found her way to Essex. But he is excited to get a chance to meet her and learn more about her.




Image Image

liana roth x the princess snow white x ★
Image
"Nan likes her, so I like her."

One of the multiple reasons Roman stopped in Essex was to update Nan's shots. A life of the road makes it easy for dogs to get sick so he wants to keep his baby in the best health. Liana was the one to help him and his dog. Nan absolutely loves her which says a lot in Roman's opinion. Animals are great judges of character.




Image Image

olive fitzgerald x wendy darling x ◑ ★
Image
"She's one of the nicest parts about coming to the diner."

Liv and Roman have established a little friendship in his time coming to the diner. He frequents it quite often after coming to Essex since his van isn't outfitted with a kitchen. They often get lost in idle conversation and she's always very friendly. Roman enjoys having a few people in a new town that he feels like he can talk to after a long day and help cheer him up. Liv is no exception to that.

ben thompson x captain hook x ◑ ★
Image
"Such a sour puss, but he's nice when no one is looking."

Ben is always friendly to customers, as any business owner would be. But once people get more comfortable in the diner they can see his banter with Liv or how he can be a little uptight. This doesn't bother Roman. Sometimes he even finds it humorous on occasion. When business is slow, the two have been able to have nice conversations and he genuinely thinks Ben isn't as bad as some might like to think.

As a frequent patrol of the bar Liesl works at, she's become a familiar acquaintance. Even though he finds her too forward and she probably finds him annoying, he at least likes converse and get into verbal spars now and again.

Growing up in the same group home for a time, Ciaran glommed onto Grayson, him being older and frankly cooler. Ciaran followed him around like a puppy and when C wanted to do something untoward, Gray was always there to steer him straight. He lost touch for a while after Grayson aged out of foster care but tracked him down a few years ago and moved to Essex.

Not being someone who really knows how to cook, he gets most of his meals at the diner where Liv waitresses. Secretly she was a bit of eye candy for him.

Paisley Lawrence

belle / #D35950 / mombie







|| ◑ Neutral || â˜ē Friends || ❀ Best Friends || â™Ĩ Love Interest || ⚤ Boyfriend/Girlfriend || ☠ Enemies ||
♡ Flirty


Image Image Ricardo Trujillo - The Beast [◑/☠]
Paisley seldom sees Ricardo at all, but he's always been extremely polite. Perhaps, whatever happened to them in the Enchanted Realm is so deeply seated that a subconscious fear of him became etched into her Essex life. She doesn't know what it is, but she can't even look him in the eyes. She might say "Thank You" or "Hello" out of respect, but she stays far out of reach of even the shadow of him.

Image

Image Image Dumaine LeRoux - Shadowman [â˜ē]
He's stuck here just like she is, so they have that in common. They can talk for hours and are often seen having coffee. While they smile and laugh and talk together, there are no signs of romance. That kind of chemistry doesn't spark between them. Maybe one day she can get him to experience mother nature with her, but probably not. He seems content to just converse with her.

Image

Image Image Lorelei Voigt - White Swan Princess [❀]
These two women are really good friends even though Paisley, herself, hasn't been in Essex for very long. They have a shared learning for books and stories, so they are often caught at the library or bookshops chatting it up about the latest thing they read. Lorelei is just one of those friends that Paisley just knew she could connect with. The only thing that Paisley doesn't like about Lorelei is her extremely naive kindness. Paisley has a lot of blonde moments, but Lorelei deliberately allows the world to push her around, and that deeply bothers her.

Image

Image Image Liesl Voigt - Black Swan Princess [◑/☠]
Paisley cannot say that she actually hates Liesl because neither of them interacts with each other. They have drastically opposing personalities, yet both are also not women to be pushed around. While the town's men would love a hair-pulling shirt and bra-ripping catfight, they keep away from each other. It's better that way. But let her step out of line and Paisley might take out her nerdy earrings and bring out the claws.

Image

Image Image Grayson Hughes - Robin Hood [◑/â˜ē]
They could be considered friendly or neutral depending on who you ask. If you ask Paisley, she might tell you that she considers him a friend. Then again, who wouldn't when he saves her ass from many of her daring adventures around Essex? If she's ever in trouble, he's the first person to show up. Her many excursions can keep him busy, whether he likes it or not.

Image

Image Image Rowan Renou - Red Riding Hood [â˜ē]
Anyone that loves a good thrill can easily be friends with Paisley, and Rowan is no exception to this rule. They get caught up in some pretty dangerous situations, but honestly - she wouldn't have it any other way. She admires the woman's backbone and fighting spirit, something that she also has. While they may not hang out like the best friends of the Princess Gang, they hang out in the best ways possible - making Grayson really earn his pay.

Image

Image Image Adrien Duval - Gaston [☠/â™Ĩ]
It's strange. In the Enchanted Realm Belle deeply loved Gaston, but grew scared of him - again. Here in Essex she feels both repulsed by and attracted to him. Maybe it's just that he's burly and handsome, but he's also arrogant and... sometimes a little dense. Regardless, she finds many opportunities to pick on him with big words that he can't begin to fathom, but it's all in passing. If anyone knows better than to stay away from aggressive men, it's Paisley. No matter how handsome they are, such monstrous internal ugliness is powerfully overshadowing.

Image

Image Image John Waldmann - Hunstman [â˜ē/â™Ĩ]
They could be considered friends. His wife enjoyed her really awful books, but she hopes that he's never read them. In fact, it's a sore topic and she's a little embarrassed by it. Every so often, whenever his usual babysitters are unavailable, she gets the opportunity to watch his children. He's also quite handsome. She sometimes makes fun of him by calling him the town's Hottest Dad, but she always says it in a playful and non-flirty way. Despite most of her playful banter, he's grown on her in a more romantic way. Though, she highly doubts he would give her that kind of attention. He just has that kind of personality that most of the men in this town do not - genuine friendliness and kindness and protection. Everyone else is just assertive and arrogant. Maybe that's the impact being a father has on a man, and of course, of experiencing loss.

Image

Image Image Liana Roth - Snow White [â˜ē]
They run in the same circles, so they are natural friends. They both have similar personalities, only Paisley might be a little less kind.

Image

Image Image Hugo Lund - Prince Charming [♡/â˜ē]
They go out on dinner and coffee dates, but they are also not dates. Paisley is not sure what to call what they do. She's like the side-chick of his side-chicks of his main-chick -- if he even has a main chick. He's nice to her, but she's not sure about how she actually feels about him. She is also not sure about how he feels about her. They don't mind each other. They can talk. They can date (or not date?). He's very handsome. He's also probably just using her as a reminder to the women of Essex that he's an ass and can't be tied down, but for some reason - she doesn't seem to care. Maybe she's weird. Or he is.

Image

Image Image Olive Fitzgerald - Wendy Darling [â˜ē]
You know what? She doesn't mind Liv. While they are not the best of friends, or anything remotely close to it, they could be considered friendly. Besides, no one else will go on hikes with her. A shame, really, but having a gal pal for some mountain climbing fun sure does beat going at it alone. Girl's kinda snappy, but sometimes a woman's gotta be. Especially in this town...

Image

Image Image Ben Thompson - Captain Hook [â˜ē]
He really knows how to tell a good story, and Paisley is all about it. They aren't dating, but they can be found hanging out and sharing their adventures. He has led an interesting life, and so has she. They are two people who are well-traveled that are now trapped in Essex of all places. They can live vicariously through their pasts. That is, whenever Ben is in a good mood anyway.

    "He's the best cop on the force, no question."
Since coming back to Essex, Minerva has had to deal with the police on numerous occasions, and most of the time she found them leaving a lot to be desired. Not Grayson Hughes, though. Working with him is always a pleasure, and his dedication to the fighting crime is nothing if not an inspiration. Plus? He's just an all around great person to be around. Can't ask for much more than that in a colleague. Minerva would like to see more of him outside of the station, but she never worked up the courage to make the first move.

There's a lot of friction in this relationship. One minute they're bickering about whatever scam John's come up with lately, and the next they're poking fun at one another like kids at a playground. On the surface John is a decent guy. He's smart, he's funny, and he's even a little charming when he wants to be. He just gets under Minerva's skin, in a way no one else ever has. He's like an itch she just can't scratch, a persistent annoyance than she can't bring herself to leave behind. He brings out a side to her that she often keeps hidden behind her domineering exterior, making her feel almost like a child again. No matter how much of a pest he is, she doesn't see herself giving it up.

Cieran's one of her closest friends in Essex. He'd come in to fix a few things around her firm, and then an entire renovation. Minerva found herself becoming more and more comfortable in the man's company and their relationship blossomed into a strong friendship. Nowadays they go out to lunch at least once a week at the local diner just to catch up, and it always ends with her teasing him about him making eyes at the waitresses. Friendship just came easy with Cieran. There's a familiarity there that she can't quite place, but she's thankful for the bond that they have.

Minerva has never done or wished any ill will on this woman, but she treats her like she's the scum of the earth. If Minerva had any interest at all in the woman she might be bothered to investigate further, find out why Nora has it out for her, but she just can't bring herself to care. Sometimes people just don't like you and there's nothing that can be done about it. It's a shame really, she's such a gorgeous woman. Minerva would've like to have taken her out at least once.

"He's a lot of fun, that one."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hugo's flirted with her a lot since they first met. It was innocent at first but slowly but surely he became more persistent. Minerva humored him from the get-go, but as the flirting went on her responses became more and more genuine. She started flirting back, thriving off of the thrill of it but never going any further. They've had a few fencing matches, most of which she's won, and they always end up having a really good time. She just doesn't know if he's ever going to be interested in something more serious. She's not the type to sleep with someone without feeling a real connection with the person.

"He has the potential for great things, he just has to believe."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Peter has gone to jail quite a few times for things like possession, petty theft, selling drugs, and physical assault. She's defended him each and every time, getting him a slap on the wrists or a much lighter sentence than he would've gotten if he had anyone else defending him. He just seems down on his luck, like he just needs a chance to prove himself, and Minerva wants to be the person to give him that chance. He's just not very receptive to the idea.

▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁

"He's not as bad as everyone thinks he is."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
There are a lot of rumors and speculations surrounding Ricardo, most of which she doesn't believe are true. He's a decent man and a brilliant businessman, a good conversationalist with the potential to be a very close friend. Minerva was hired by him as his attorney and they've got on fairly well ever since. She doesn't understand why everyone sees him as a such a bad guy, he's actually very easy to get along with. Much like her, Ricardo seems to have built up a wall to keep people from getting too close, and she's very sympathetic of that.

john waldmann ; the huntsman ➸
▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁

"He's a great man, and an even greater friend. I'm lucky to have met him."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Minerva first met John when he was still on the police force. She'd just moved back into town and took up her uncle's mantle, and thought it beneficial to introduce herself to all the officers. He was one of the only ones who didn't laugh her out the door, offering a friendly smile and well wishes. Minerva soon realized how incredible of a cop he was, and it got harder and harder to watch him deal with all the dirty cops n the force. She gave him the extra push he needed to finally quit the force and start his own practice as a private investigator. Watching her friend find his passion again will always be one of her life's greatest achievements.

    "Liv is just full of surprises,"
The whole friends with benefits ordeal never really appealed to him until Liv came along. He just got bored of people too quickly, regardless of whether he was fucking them or not. He hasn't run into that problem yet... not with Liv at least. Whether they're hanging out to sleep together or just talk shit about people from the diner, Peter can always count on Liv to keep him entertained. And that's all he really asks for in someone. Maybe one day she'll grow dull and when that day comes he'll toss her aside likes he's done to every one else, but he honestly doesn't see it happening any time soon, and that in itself intrigues him.

"I can't seem to leave this guy alone."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Now Ben-... well he is something special. This small business owner is just interesting enough and just enough of an asshole to keep Peter's interest piqued, but what keeps Peter coming back is how incredible the man is in the sack. He'd planned on sleeping with him one time, just to see what the man was like in bed, but he just kept having sex with him. He's one of the few people that Peter's ever slept with more than once, and that's quite an achievement. To be fair, they'd had a lot of built up tension before they finally went at it. One late night shift was all it took for them to be all over one another, christening table seven, eight, ten, and eleven all in one night.

▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁

"I can always count on John to get me into trouble."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Honestly, given Peter's track record, if John wasn't straight he would've tried to fuck him already. Sadly, his friend only likes women, so they've kept their relationship strictly platonic. Much like Liv, John has this uncanny ability to rile Peter up and get him to do something stupid. Most of the time that something stupid is also incredibly illegal. They're cut from the same trouble-making cloth, living off the thrill of danger with the potential of getting caught in the act. If Peter didn't know any better, he'd say John has an exhibitionist kink. He sure does.

"They're my boss, and an absolute blast to be around."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Peter hasn't had the chance to talk to his employer much. Not that he hadn't tried, of course. Bermuda is just a queen who's hard to get along with. Peter and them have that in common. He hopes to one day catch his boss's interest enough to warrant a conversation or two. He thrives off of positive feedback, and if he could break into that ice queen and make them laugh, he'd count that as a win.

to be quite frank, Lene doesn't really have friends. She is too cold, too callous, too shut off from the outside world to build relationships beyond the professional. and so it in unsurprising that the closest thing she has to a friend is someone she met through work. as a prominent donor of Nora's school (specifically its arts program), the two met through said school before getting to know one another better through continuous interactions. eventually, Lene shocked herself when she realised that she actually enjoyed the woman's company. perhaps it was their shared love of expensive wine, or perhaps it was Lene sensing a shared trait between the two of them, a phantom pain in their hearts, and a lingering darkness clouding their memories.

back when Rowan was still a young teen, prone to trouble, they won an award for their short story. Lene was present at the awards ceremony, being one of the main benefactors of the event, and even presented Rowan's award herself. despite her formality, Rowan immediately sensed something off about the woman, and the brush of their hands left a chill in Rowan that oddly lingered the rest of the evening. Rowan's gut feelings have seldom been wrong, and so they thought it best to avoid the woman. at least, that was their plan, until they were hired to dig up dirt on the wealthy socialite. Rowan came face to face with the woman when they were caught by her security guards, and to their shock, Lene recognised her, and with that same formality, this time accompanied by a cold smirk, she said, "So, my assumptions were right. You really did never amount to anything." Then Lene kicked the then-nineteen year old off their property, and the two have yet to meet again.

paisley lawrence ; belle ★

    "If there were such a thing as a platonic soulmate, she would be mine."
These two share a thirst for adventure that knows no boundaries. Rhiannon has never loves her job more than when she's able to go hiking with a close friend and lose herself in the pleasant company and mountain air. When these two met they immediately bonded over their wanderlust, sharing stories of adventure and regaling each other with all the places they've been and things they've done. They both want the same thing out of life, and find solace in their common interests. Rhiannon has a lot of respect for Paisley and admires her a lot. She hopes to have Paisley in her life regardless of where the two of them end up, and always looks forward to their little adventures.

▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁

    "She's the closest long distance friend I've ever had."
Rhiannon and Liana are polar opposites who share a moral compass. Their core principles and beliefs align so well that they actually have a lot in common, but the way the socialize is much different from one another. While they both are great in adapting to almost any social situation, one is much more extroverted than the other. Rhiannon brings a lot of energy to the relationship that has to be taken in small doses, but that doesn't mean they never see one another. They just don't see each other as often as your typical set of friends, and that works for them.





Image Image olive fitzgerald ; wendy darling ★★
▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁

    "I love her. There's no other way to describe it."
There isn't much these two wouldn't do for one another, or with one another. Their adventures aren't limited to hikes in the woods or talks back-dropped by gorgeous scenery. Rhiannon has taken Liv to parts in the park deemed too dangerous for unqualified pedestrians. They've taken late night drives to nowhere and shared countless nights in the bed of her truck, sleeping under the stars. Liv's taken her out to every nightclub Essex has to offer, snuck her free food and drink at the diner, and kept her laughing every step of the way. Nothing could put a damper on their friendship, not even a drunken make-out session. It could've gone further but Rhiannon knew better, putting a stop to it because she knew one hookup wouldn't be enough for her.

ben thompson ; captain hook ✰
▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁

    "I like to think that I bring out the gay in him."
With Rhiannon being as close to Liv as she is, it was almost inevitable that these two became friends. They first bonded over the fact that they're both a part of the Alphabet Mafia, and soon after it became the crutch of their relationship. She flaunts over women and he bitches about men, and it just works. Sure, Ben being a bisexual man, they could bond over their shared interest... but where's the fun in that? He's her source of gossip in town, keeping her up to date on the goings on while she's "living under a rock," as he affectionately puts it. She loves to come in to the diner for a quick cup of coffee with the owner, whether it's to spill some tea or share a laugh.
