    he/him

    scamp

    Cisco was a child-turned-teen actor until his life was ruined. After surviving a near-assault by a gunman, he was falsely accused of drug possession, and his entire career went south. For a while, he stayed with a man named Tony in his restaurant, learning how to cook his favorite meal in the world: spaghetti. It was there he met Angel, his best friend, and for a while, he was able to forget how the world turned its back on him. Eventually, he left Tony's to go to college, where he met his current roommate, Caroline. He thought he'd never see Angel again until she moved in across the hall.

    angel

    Once, she was his best friend at Tony's. Alongside her sister, they were thick as thieves and always making Tony shake his head fondly. He was always Angel's Number 1 fan, supporting her dream to be an actress despite his past with the acting world. She was always supportive of his love of spaghetti, holding the same fervor for the dish that he had. When she became his neighbor, it felt like fate. Now he had his best friend back, the first person to accept him after his fall from grace. Cisco forgot what it was like to feel so airy and light all the time, with an unassailable grin on his face. Little does he realize that he's always been in love with her.

    he/him

    tod

    Travis spent his childhood under the thumb of his father, who loved hunting. However, Travis loved animals and hated the sport, always dreading the hunting trips his father would insist upon. On one such hunting trip, Travis accidentally shot his father, filling him with guilt for years to come. Even when his family moved to America, he could never quite shake it. After the move, he met two orphans on the street, one of them being Angel. He helped her out as much as he could, staying in touch with her over the years. When it came time to go to college and find and apartment, there was no one else he'd rather have as a roommate than his best friend.

    When they were children, Caroline was Travis's best friend. Her family moved to America when they were still quite young, and over the years, the memories of their times together faded. Once they unwittingly reunited in their apartment building, something tickled in the back of his face. Something about her face seemed familiar. They share a love of black coffee, and she's very fond of his pet fox, Amos. Something about Caroline fills Travis with a sense of belonging, a calm he certainly never felt with his father. Still, he's not quite sure what his feeling means for them, only that he wants to help her relax and smile from time to time. Maybe even hold her hand.

    he/him

    flynn rider

    Although born into the wealthy Reyes family, Nate had little to no claim to the family fortune due to being the youngest child. To help support himself in the future, he became a thief, stealing priceless trinkets and even some hearts. Once he came of age, his parents informed him they had arranged a marriage for him to the daughter of another royal family. To stave it off, he decided to go to college. Though he's learning more about business, he really just wants to get away from his family and future marriage. So far, the plan is working, and he enjoys flirting and stealing as many hearts as possible. And he's now set his sights on a certain gorgeous blondie.

    Rosalie is Nate's arranged fiancée, not that either of them realize this. In a previous life, they were in love, though they're unaware of this fact as well. She rebuffs his advances at every turn, but for some reason, Nate is hooked on her. He's not quite sure why this is, other than she didn't fall at his feet the first time they looked at each other. Of course, he finds her gorgeous, but there's a fire in her that makes her more attractive. He wants to be her prince charming even though she claims he's anything but. And yet, she seems intrigued, and even sometimes engages him in his flirting. If she wasn't, she wouldn't give him the time of day, right?

    thomas o'malley

    Patrick was originally raised in England by his mother. However, after showing the occasional mischievous tendency, she sent him to live with his father and the twin sister he never knew about. From moment one, Pansy was the bane of his existence, always teasing him and torturing him. While his father and Pansy engaged in shady business ventures, Patrick tried to stop being the scaredy-cat he always was. He was obsessed with the idea of being "manly," which resulted in him wearing leather jackets and leaping ten inches off the ground whenever Pansy appeared. College was supposed to change that, but so far, he hasn't had much luck.

    In a previous life, Desirée was the love of Patrick's life. This life is no different. From the moment they met, Patrick fell for her, following her around like a lovestruck fool. Whenever she smiles, he feels his heart race, and if she asks for help with anything, he'll bend over backwards. She fills him with a confidence he's been lacking for years, giving him the sense that maybe he can make something of himself outside of his family. No one has ever made him feel this way, and with a smirk, his best mate Nate tells him he's in love. That makes sense, he thinks. There's no other feeling to describe the way he feels when he looks at Desi.

    he/him

    ron stoppable

    Ricky was a born buffoon, always by his best friend's side. Bueno Nacho is he and Perci's main hangout, and they're always looking after their younger brothers together. It's been that way as long as they can remember, and there's no way they would ever change it. Save for his brother Reggie being mute and the victim of bullying, their lives have been pretty standard. Then, one day, a kid in town went missing, followed shortly by P.K.'s friend Barb. Things started getting… strange. With Perci's friend Ara and their new buddy Jace in tow, it's up to a bunch of teenagers to figure out what's going on and save the town. Go figure.

    Perci is Ricky's lifetime friend and his other half. It's been the two of them since they were in kindergarten, and Ricky wouldn't have it any other way. P.K. means the world to him, but he somehow never understands why that seems like such a big deal to everyone around him. Then again, he tends to scream about how awesome all of his friends—and all the girls—are, as well as how much he loves Bueno Nacho. They got matching Bueno Nacho tattoos to cement their friendship. Whenever Perci is sad, Ricky has the urge to tear the world apart. No one messes with P.K., not even a bunch of weird demon monsters.

    Ara was an orphan until the Morales family adopted her. She's always been passionate about reading, with a special interest in psychology, and her new family just happened to live above a bookstore. Come high school, she was accused of serially cheating on her first boyfriend, even though she would never do that. After that it was hard to trust people, save for her very frew friends. When Barb went missing without a word to either her or Perci, she knew something odd was going on. This strange phenomena no longer just affected her younger brother's friend group; it was spreading across the Hawkins. There was no way she wasn't going to investigate.

    Otherwise known as Jace, No One Calls Me Jason. Ara literally ran into him on his first day at Hawkins High, and she showed him around. With minimal effort, he was able to make her smile and laugh, and she took a shine to him quickly. Jace is just about the sweetest guy in the world, and she finds herself thinking of him when they're apart. She knows instinctively that she's falling for him fast, but she doesn't want to rush anything. As things start to get more dangerous, she finds the courage to protect him using a shotgun of all things. And to think that sort of thing only seemed to happen in books! But then, people do some crazy things when they're in love.

    he/him

    dhampir guardian

    Nikita was born to a dhampir mother and a royal Moroi father. He hated his dad for leaving his mom, and he took care of her and his younger siblings for as long as he could. At a young age, he decided to become a guardian so he'd be able to better provide for his family. Eventually, he transferred to St. Vladimir's in America, where he quickly befriended Viktor Ivankov despite being his polar opposite. When Rosalyn Volkov returned with her Moroi princess, Nik volunteered to help Ro catch up on her training. He had no clue that the troubles that chased the girls away from St. Vlad's were about to become very real, but he knew he wasn't going to leave them to it.

    dhampir guardian

    Before she ran away with the Dragunov princess, Ro was a guardian trainee alongside Nik. They never quite interacted before she left, but now they spend nearly every afternoon together. There's something irresistible about her, and it's not just the coy smile she shoots his way. She has a unique way of flustering him, and he can't get her out of his head. It's quite possible she's much better at fighting than him, and because of that, he never wants to get on her bad side. If at all possible, he wants to remain on her good side, or just by her side in general. Relationships between dhampirs aren't meant to last, but Nik has this underlying hope that it will.

    moroi princess

    Yuliya was born the second child of the Dragunov family, and therefore did not bear the expectation of carrying on the family's title. She met her best friend Ro in elementary school, and they've always been best friends. Liya had everything she could ever need or want, at least until the car crash. She was sixteen when the accident took the lives of her family and nearly took Ro. An intense paranoia filled Liya afterward, furthered by her lack of magic specialization and her new status as the Dragunov princess. She and Ro ran away, but St. Vlad's eventually found them and brought them back. Just in time for the paranoia to come back.

    The prince of the Ivankov family. They've been spending time together out of pure coincidence, but Liya finds herself relaxing when she's around Viktor. He shows her how to let loose and have fun, which is something that Nik and Ro don't really let them do. Even though he has a reputation as a playboy, she's been falling for him, and to her surprise, he seems to return her feelings. Their similar circumstances in terms of Moroi society only strengthen this bond. Well, that and the fact that's he's super hot. Her psychic bond with Ro might be a problem, but she's not going to let it stop her from having a good time with Vik.

    The moment Noah's older brother went to college, Noah became a lifelong hustler, doing all sorts of shady shit. For years, he got away with it, but every hustler gets caught eventually. That was when he met Rebecca. Unfortunately, what should have been a perfect romance fell apart fast. Since then, Noah has been working at the zoo and volunteering at the animal shelter, turning to animals instead of people for companionship. He's still a hustler, sort of, in that he's a major womanizer, hooking up with just about any lady who returns his smile. Life was just fine with just him and his cat Antonio, but then she came into his life.

    Josie is a forensic scientist with the police, Noah's somewhat mortal enemies. She's gorgeous, so of course he's going to flirt with her, but she rebuffs him every time. Yet they keep gravitating back to each other more and more. Noah feels more connected to her than he's probably ever felt with anyone, besides his brother. It helps that she has a healthy respect for animals, and over time, he can't help but fall for her. After Rebecca, he's not quite sure how to express his genuine interest in Josie, so for now, he'll pretend there's nothing emotional going on. Even as she starts to mean everything to him.

    Karina has been a dreamer her entire life. When she was young, she often dreamt of a prince who would sweep her off her feet. She's been searching for him ever since, falling in love with boys at the drop of a hat and dropping them just as fast when they prove un-princelike. Her life has very little direction to it, save for her prince search, so for now she's working as a waitress and bartender to support herself. It gives her the opportunity to meet more guys, more chances to find her prince. It's been so long, she almost wonders if there will never be a prince out there for her. Little does she know that he's right around the corner.

He happened to be walking his dogs, but she's never been happier about a coincidence. Her time is entirely devoted to pursuing him—he's the perfect prince! He even looks a lot like the dream prince she's been meeting since she was little. At least at first, it's very much about his face and his figure, but unlike all the others, she finds herself falling for him in a much deeper way. Alex is frankly a little oblivious to her intentions, but she just knows they're made for each other. One of these days, she'll get him to finally kiss her.

  Willow has moved to the town of Mentone, Alabama in the name of pursuing a music career. Even though she's a talented singer, she's not sure if that's what her passion is, but she'd hate to let down her mother, who's always been supportive. While she's working out her life, she's a bartender at the Pigeon Hill Bar, where she's been offered some singing gigs. There's gotta be something for her here, but she's a Northern girl. How will she ever fit into this town where everybody knows everybody? Willow is twenty-seven, after all, and she still hasn't managed to keep her narcolepsy under control.

  Caleb is a rancher who introduced himself during one of her first shifts at the bar. Willow's not used to flirting, so the fact that he called her beautiful and an angel in the same breath took her off guard. Love has never come easily to her, but despite all his teasing and smirking, Caleb has never judged her for falling asleep every five minutes and being so timid. With him, she feels safe. It's a whole new feeling for her, and she's deathly afraid she's going to mess things up with him at some point. He's a Southern boy, so what's he want a Northern girl like her for? He seems to have no intention of leaving, so who is she to turn down the most comforting presence she's ever felt?

  Dakota is one half of the Oaks twins, and that's always been part of her identity. She and her brother, Mitchel, have always conquered the world together, which largely consisted of the museum their great uncles Silas and Simon run. Boys have always been a passion of Dakota, and her dating life has gotten her into trouble before. But she never seems to learn, and it was during an argument with one of her boyfriends that she met the boy who might actually be the one.

He's shy, but he's sweet, and Dakota never though she'd be able to have a friend who wasn't her brother. Someday, she thinks maybe her feelings will turn romantic, but for once, she's happy to explore her friendship with a boy before thinking about romance. And somehow, that makes it all that much sweeter.

    Iris has long ago given up on the cliché notion of love and friendship. All she needs is her best friend Thanatos and her paints. Thanks to her ability to see auras, Iris finds it difficult to deal with people anyway, so why would she bother? She's a bit of a bitch to everyone she meets, but it's the greatest form of protection she has, especially after the scorn and abuse she's faced previously. Thanatos and Iris are pros at avoiding people, so they rarely deal with much trouble. Yet for some reason, they're running into romantic prospects all of a sudden. What the actual hell?

He seems to be smitten, but what could he possibly like about her? No matter how bitchy she is, he keeps coming back with a smile and some new gesture to woo her. Iris can't help but start to like his presence a bit and the fact that he doesn't mind how much of a bitch she is. It seems rainbows really do need sunshine, no matter how much she tries to ignore the fluttery feeling in her chest.

From beekeeping to making herbal remedies, Aristaeus has always picked up things quickly and spread his knowledge to mortals. He faced praise from all over, but he also faced scorn. Apparently, some other god found this offensive and saw fit to embarrass Aristaeus publicly, causing him to become a shut-in. Pantheon Academy is his first opportunity to go outside again, but this is all beyond his understanding. Just like the guy who keeps eyeing him.

    Thanatos is the god of death, but Aristaeus considers him terrifying. Sure, he's attractive, but one wrong move, and he might get killed. He seems to be attached at the hip to that Iris girl, which almost seems like they're dating. Despite that, Thanatos seems drawn to Aristaeus of all gods, but what would someone that imposing want with a geek like him? It's intimidating trying to talk to him, but even Ari can tell Thanatos might have a soft side deep down. Seeing the way he is with Iris makes him think she's lucky to have someone looking out for her. He wishes he had that.
