DECISIONS!!!
Decision One;;
Decision Two;;
Decision Three;;
I've already told most of you about this lovely fellow right here. Hell, I've already made a bunch of his app and his account. His name is Benito DeMarco Giovanni. And he is played by the ever amazing, Michael Buble' whom you all know I have fallen head over heels in love with. I haven't figured out exactly where he falls in the Gio family but he's going to be one of the cousins of Luca and Vi (maybe Vi's brother if lainey's cool with that? doesn't matter) and there for another nephew for Tony.
He is first and foremost a singer, He's a famous singer too, honestly not going to lie, modeled Benny's career after Buble's himself, he sings similar(or exactly lol) the same type of music, sounds the same, known for classic velvet type voice, down to earth, good guy sort of rep. His stage name, name to his fans and stuff is Benny G. And he is all of that but there's the whole other side of him that the public doesn't know. There are rumors that his family is distantly related to the mafia family of the giovanni's but no one really puts much faith in it, and no one knows his giovanni is the same giovanni. And no one knows that the boy is also a smuggler for his family. Celebrities aren't checked as much in airports because their people have to worry about the celebrities security almost as much. They use this to their advantage. And he's good at it. Ben or Benny whatever people want to call him is very nonchalant, he helps out the family because it was what he was raised to do more than he actually believes in it and he refuses any shares in profit from the family biz because, believe me, he earns enough through what he considers his real job.
His history is going to vary on who his parents are and how much I need to link up with the rest of gio so I'm focusing on career, relationship and personality points.
Points of Fact;;• is twenty-six years old.
• been singing since he was a kid in talent shows
• became a small time name around twenty
• became a big time name around twenty three, so he's been around a bit
• won two emmy's in the past two years
• Has dated around a lot, had one major girlfriend who broke his heart.
• has an interesting relationship with his new manager (will be requested).
• fun, down to earth guy
• lot of fun, really out going and good tempered.
• when it comes to smuggling, he doesn't want to know what he's smuggling, who its going to, anything. He just needs to know where to drop it off and that's all he wants to know because he is a fairly moral bound guy.
• loves kids, loves his family, but can be protective
• he is on Fausto and the rest of the families good side, except tony whom in Benny's eyes turned his back on the one real thing the world has to offer and that's the love a family.
• loyal to the extreme
• good at what he does, both singing and smuggling.
• VERY energetic, always running around with the kids of the family, playing sports, doing something, His friends and family all sort of realize that Benny really never grew up, he's a kid at heart. Rowdy would be a good way to describe him and to his manager's last nerve, he's not very good at keeping things serious and working too hard.
• loves that he can rock a suit, lol. Especially because he is one of the most lovable and charming people you'll ever meet.
• BIG into philanthropy, and is coming to Valkyrie for the most part to put together a benefits concert to help earn money to help rebuild.
• totally up for falling in love and settling down, really really wants to be a dad, but finding a girl that can handle every aspect of him and get him to be serious for five minutes is not an easy task.
And there he is. PLOT WITH HIM. (CLICK for a quick vocal!sex bribe)
Decision Two;;
I know I am going in a weird order here. I'm going: good, bad, good. But whatever. I have decided to keep Meg as a side character and try her out as just that for now. I really wasn't sure about bringing the twins unless they got plots, Derek did, but I hardly have muse for her even. She's the one I always forget when trying to list my characters, so yeah. I think she is saying farewell for now, if not forever. She'll be around as a side character, maybe I'll request her if she comes far enough away from my heart but yeah for now… it's bye bye. I know you guys all understand that sort of thing.
Decision Three;;
Meet my two new nameless Richardsons. Yes, Richardsons meaning they are going to be related to Jasper, grumsy. And Yes, that means in some way, they are both sirens as well. Not evil Sirens though. They broke from the family a long time ago. Their PB's are Ewan McGregor and Summer Glau. Why? Because look at them! Plus I just became too obsessed with them not to. lol. Anyways.
Ewan's character I've had in my head for over a year now but never did anything with him because I was comfy enough not making him but since I re-watched Angels and Demons and his epicness in there I was just, ugh and since he's still in my head strong, I feel like it would be okay to bring him in. Summer's character formed as I reworked Ewan's and started watching The Cape, lol. They are siblings, brother and sister, Jasper's cousins, on his dad's side obviously. They are wanted by the Sirens actually.
We're going to call them boy and girl for the purposes of this info. Boy is older, he's 27, officially making him my oldest and she is 22, making her one of my youngest. Boy had a hard time since birth. His dad was the younger brother of Jasper's dad who was the patriarch of the Richardson family and wow, did he ever have a big brother complex. He hated his brother and admired him all at once. He was a very bitter guy and not very intelligent. He was a brute, known for being a good force but that's it. And he used that force. He figured the best way to demonstrate he was worth something to the Sirens and Richardson family was to have as many kids as possible. He was a good looking guy, who had a fetish for cougars. He didn't have a hard time getting laid in his teens. He began having kids, taking the kids under his wing, mostly by force, away from their mothers. Not that he was ever kind to the children, he beat them badly, neglected them, and pushed them extremely hard to be the best. When Boy was born, his mother let him go out of fear but she came back for him a couple days after his 9th birthday. Now he had already disliked his father, connected well with his siblings, who all saw him for what he was, a failure, a hack, mooching off the success of his older brother. But when his mother came, with police, demanding her child returned to her, Boy's father agreed, with the cops there. Boy went to live with her. He loved it, it was so different. But even at six part of him was terrified of what he's siblings, including his baby sister Girl(she's the youngest and only girl), was going through. His mother was so good to him though. She seemed to love him endlessly. She had not had an easy life either, she was a bit of an addict when she had Boy but when she lost him, something snapped and she got her life in order with the help of God. She had found religion. She told Boy that if he wanted to, they could have him baptized in her church (catholic). He wants to make her happy and agrees. Best decision he ever made. It was a more liberal accepting catholic church. The Priest was married with kids, and a really nice funny guy. They had gay members, members of every race, it was inner city. It helped him think less of his abused past and more about his siblings.
He hated his earthly father, but began to love and worship his heavenly father. But when he was 13, and had just been confirmed in the Catholic church, something horrible happened. His birth father, found them. He wanted his son back. He found them coming out of the church with the Priest and without hesitation shot all three of them. He killed the priest and Boy's mother, and shot him in the leg. He took Boy back to Chicago. Boy wouldn't speak to anyone, all he did was smoke cigarettes and look at the sky, fiddle with the cross around his neck. He would sneak out to church for the first two sunday's when he realized someone followed him to church. His sister, Girl. She was only eight at time. But she had more issues than most people every do. He spoke to her. She stayed quiet. After a couple months, their father brought her home in the morning. Boy was confused where she had been. When he asked questions, their father began to hit him, it wasn't his business. That's when Boy took Girl by the hand and ran to the nearest church and hid there. While hiding in the balcony, Girl told him that since she was six, their father had been pimping her out basically. Their father had never touched her, apart from the beatings. Boy felt guilt for not being there to protect her, but mostly he felt rage. He knew that his dad would burn eternally in hell for what he had done but he also knew that wasn't soon enough. They went "home" eventually but made a habit out of breaking in and hiding in churches to avoid their father for years to come, and he comforted her with stories of how the whole world was not like this hell they lived in. They grew very close but he still felt powerless. Boy couldn't let it happen to her one more time, so he had a plan.
He was now nineteen years old, Girl being fourteen. And when she told him Dad wanted to take her out for a night, he knew what it meant. He had never believed in killing, despite having seen many people shot but to protect his sister, he knew God would forgive him his sins. He got a few guns, and when his father, and oldest brother(who was in on it too) as well as some Hughes and Davis sirens, some of who had actually been with Girl, all met up with a few clients, he opened fire. But there was one of him and like fifteen of them, he was shot back in the shoulder and stabbed in leg when Girl picked up two guns and shot the six people left Boy hadn't gotten. She did it ilke a machine almost. She was hurt so many times by these people, and she didn't have the same crisis of faith her brother had. Two young people, fifteen dead including members of each other the Siren familys. Before they fled the scene, Boy went around, shut all of the eyes and said a small prayer for them. He had to respect life forces around him. They fled back "home" grabbed their faked passports, whatever cash they had, cleaned up quick, stopping at Donny who was 17 at the time but talented still who got them paid seats on the next flights to Europe before they left. No one knows he helped them. This act caused a huge uproar in the Siren world. But they disappeared. The damage was done. They didn't do an extensive manhunt but figured if they saw them again it was over. But the event is a famous one for the sirens.
Once in London, England, the two backpacked their way to Rome. It was Boy's dream to see the Vatican. It was Girl's dream to simply be free. While at the Vatican, Boy attended Mass and spoke to a few of the cardinals. He even went to confession. Now in America, if a murderer admits it to a priest he must report it, but this was the Vatican and he told the priest everything, he was sobbing in the confessional. The old priest granted him forgiveness, and told him that the horrors laid before him in life were all a test of faith, and if he passes he shall know true love and forgiveness like no normal man of earth. His words gave Boy hope. While he spent time at the Vatican, Girl explored Rome. She met a traveling circus and became good friends with many of the performers. She even got to learn ribbon dancing and some acrobatics. Who else was traveling with this circus? Take a guess, that's right Amyra Veria and her family. They met Boy too. Had dinner, Boy and Girl got to see what a real was like. After a few years in Rome, Boy and Girl came back to America, they went to New Jersey to stay low. Boy began studying to become a Priest of Eastern Churches in which Priests were allowed to marry and things were done a bit more liberally. He was Catholic and the Vatican astounded him but he could never be a Roman Priest, too ridged, not enough warmth in his eyes. Girl began ballet and other forms of dance lessens. She fell in love with the movement of the body and it helped her ignore her past. Boy likes to say God speaks through her dancing. She was sort of a natural. They were doing well. Girl never took too religion as Boy did, but she respected it, even envied it, and while Boy hopes one day God will find her as he found him, he respected she was not religious, keeping an open mind and being a good person was more important to him. They never spoke of the massacre of blood they caused in Chicago. It was just too painful.
After a few years Boy became a Priest and was given the call to go to a Church in Valkyrie, California. It wasn't familiar to him or Girl because remember, they have no idea of all the rebel!siren drama. But them being there, and meeting Amyra again, Boy's definitely think some sort of Holy Deity was at work there lol. But yeah, that's why they hit up Valkyrie. Girl gets a dance scholarship to VU to actually get a degree. College wasn't something either had much of a chance for. But both are highly intelligent.
