take a look at the invisible girl - -

[Lyubochka Pasternak]

LYUBOCHKA ● PASTERNAK

NINETEEN ● SERVANT ● RUSSIAN

so, here we have lyubochka. this here is her profile if you want to go super in depth about her. the basics are as follows: she was born in a small village a bit of a ways south of moscow, but was sent to a convent by her parents after she was found to be having a sexual relationship with a carpenter's daughter. she ran away from the convent and found work at the peterhof palace, where she's been for the past three years. lyubochka is a generally guarded person, but very protective of the few friends she does have. to most, she seems pretty mean and rather unwilling to socialize. i'd like her to have a couple close friends, and maaaaaaybe a love plot if there are any girls willing to go for it. i'm not sure if it would be the best idea to have people know about her past just yet because of what it would mean for her in terms of work and general societal acceptance. i think it would be cool for her to have a couple enemies also, because, well, not everyone is best buddies.

post here if you're interested in plotting with her, and we'll figure out the details! :]

[Theodore Bonaparte]

THEODORE ♦ BONAPARTE
TWENTY-TWO ♦ PRINCE ♦ FRENCH

Theo cries: "All hail Shakespeare--Pumpkin Knight of the Divine. Shit, how lonely I am. God Save the Queen!"

Lyuba curses: "Oh, for Chrissake, who let you into the rum, again?"

I imagine Theo and Lyuba having a sort of love/hate friendship. Theo will be all: woe is me, I am a drunken warrior poet, hail to the pumpkin king etc. etc., whereas Lyuba will be level-headed and mature: shut up you imbecile, you'll wake the children. In a world where Theo is in complete emotional distress, Lyuba will be his platonic rock. She may not lick his wounds, but she'll sit and watch to make sure he doesn't get hurt too badly. She won't be a mother, but rather an abusive, younger-yet-wiser sister of some kind: perhaps, not that close (unless you'd like them to be that close), but still caring towards him.

On the other end, Theo will be the excitement in her otherwise dreary existence. On rare occasion when he is actually being useful instead of ridiculously he drunk, Theo will help Lyuba with whatever needs to get done. He will occasionally bring her food, lend her clothes (or whatever else she requires), and be as friendly to her as he possibly can.
He remains even when she tells him to leave, but quiets when she requests him to.

Theo, loyal and honest, will reveal everything about him to Lyuba and trust her without question. I imagine Lyuba would maintain her secrets, right? If she does, that's a-O.K. with Theo, because he's learned to never expect anything in return. If Lyuba does choose to let her secrets slip, it will lead Theo to only appreciate her more. I picture them drinking buddies (does Lyuba drink? xD), confidants, and just casual friends. When in public, Theo will act as if he doesn't know Lyuba as more than a servant (more for her safety than his own: Russian's and French friends? The scandal.), and Lyuba will act as if she knows nothing of the many nights Theo get's ridiculously inebriated and passes out on the floor of his private room.

For more information about Theo, you can take a looksie here. If you'd be interested in doing/deepening this plot, or just have any other comments/concerns, feel free to PM me or just chat me up in the c-box ^_^
