"She never looked nice. She looked like art, and art wasn't suppose to look nice; It was suppose to make you feel something.”
― Rainbow Rowell
Lola is wild thing, she slinks, or struts, clings to corners and walls, watches doors and windows, and disappears when you aren't looking. But when she laughs, it's delightful, and she does it often. And when she smiles, it lights up her features, and she does it all the time.
Description
Lola has the hungry lean look of a wolf in winter, perpetually underweight, she masks the lines and angles of her body with oversized baggy clothes, which makes a large part of her wardrobe baggy jeans and oversized hoodies. She is quick to play and tease, but for all her antics she seems to know when to reign it in.
Roleplay Hooks
A little of this, a lot of that (any)Lola has tried her hand a lot of different things, supporting herself with busking, odd jobs, and the like, she's confident that that she can figure damn near anything out. (Jack of All Trades)
What's her Story? (any)According to Lola, she took a gap year to travel and figure out what she's doing with her life. If asked if it worked, she'll give a resounding 'no' and laugh but she seems to be done with traveling for now.
Pretty Polyglot (any)Lola has a love of languages, and is a natural at them, but it's not just about exploring cultures through their words, she seems to pick up unspoken cues relatively easily too.
Dirty Hands (any)Want to see her eyes light up? Your odds are better with secret gardens, and community farms, than with diamonds and gold...though there is never a promise that she'll be able to resist a shiny offering.
All That Jazz (any)Lola loves watching performances, art, music, theater, it doesn't matter. The busker has even put on a few of her own, though she's unlikely to be the girl at the party who pulls out a guitar.
By Blood (Shifter)With that feral appearance, the lean hungry look to her, the purr of a voice and otherworldly eyes, Lola has more than a little of the wild in her.
My but Gravity is a Harsh Mistress (Shifter)Lola and Gravity have a contentious relationship at best. One dislocated finger, and twisted ankle later, Lola is determined to get even...
I don't know a lot about Bobbi, but I know there's always a warm meal, and she gave me pain killers and whiskey when I needed it. That's someone worth getting to know better.
I think I've met him at the worst moment in his life, and he still has been kind and patient with me.
Sound Track
My love took me down to the river to silence me
And when he left, I could not speak
I lay on the ground, I tried to scream
But no sound did come out, I could only bleed blue
I waited for him til the frost did come
My skin, it turned blue and my body was numb
But my heart, it burned out til there was no more
But what is this that I can't see
With ice cold hands taking hold of me?
When God is gone and the Devil takes hold
Who will have mercy on your soul?
Oh, Death
Some boys take a beautiful girl
And they hide her away from the rest of the world
I wanna be the one to walk in the sun
But girls, they wanna have fun
Oh, those girls, they wanna have
We've got a war to fight
Never found our way
Regardless of what they say
How can it feel, this wrong
From this moment
How can it feel, this wrong
Oh, all the echoes in my mind cry
There's blood on your lies
The sky's open wide
There is nowhere for you to hide
The hunter's moon is shining
I'm running with the wolves tonight
Walkin' on the thin thread of life, hope you survive
Try to keep your cool before your urge backfires
Walkin' on the thin thread of life, hope you survive
I'm livin' life, do or die, what can I say?
I'm 23 now, but will I live to see 24?
The way things is going, I don't know
Tell me why are we so blind to see
That the ones we hurt are you and me?
Been spendin' most their lives, livin' in the gangsta's paradise
Watch where you go, I'm an animal
Animal, animal
Watch where you go, I'm an animal
You don't wanna dance
Don't wanna dance oh
With the devil oh
Uh oh with the devil oh
And I'm about to go
