i thought the time had come that i stick up a request for these guys, if anyone takes them i'll obviously be mahoosively grateful! the pbs are just the ones that either have pictures with my pbs or are the first that came to mind, so they can be changed to absolutely anyone, i really don't mind. names are similarly flexible, and to be honest even personalities and histories can be tweaked, i'm easy!

victor van der straaten - victor is, and always has been, a huge brat. working as a banker for the bank his dad is current ceo of, he couldn't give a fuck about how much people are suffering under the recession - out of sight, out of mind! he's been raised to expect the best and to be the best, so there's always been a lot of pressure on him, but also a lot of perks. he's fiercely competitive with his younger brother hugo, and when he got engaged before victor the elder van der straaten was not happy. enter harley. texan trailer trash with a six year old daughter, harley ticked three big boxes for victor; his mother would hate her, she would worship him, and she was guaranteed to overshadow hugo's fiancee. so they got engaged, she for money and he for sport. that fell apart recently, and it's only since the inevitable failure of their engagement (the night before the big event, no less!) that they've realized how much they genuinely enjoyed each other's company. having said that, there's a lot of resentment there too, since the whole affair has been a touch embarrassing for both of them. that's chris pine up there, of course, but anyone would be grand!




harriet hughes - harri and harry met at college (central st martin's college of art and design in london!) and instantly he wanted her. she's a pure chelsea girl, generally reluctant to stray from the kings road and her designer upbringing. she's got more money than sense, and she's always been a little ditzy - sweet-natured and quite gullible, but mostly because she doesn't think before she speaks and not because she can't think in the first place. she puts up with a lot from harry, as when he got her pregnant and she gave birth to twins he spent the first two years ignoring their existence. even now that she and harry married on a whim and he's supposed to be living with her and playing house, he's still so flighty, and he visibly struggles to connect with their daughters. i think it's about time harri shut him down for a change, so if anyone takes her we'll plot that out! obviously that's the v. beautiful frida gustavsson.




savannah mayfield - sav is harley's little sister, and she's very protective of her. they're from austin and their mom was completely incompetent as a parent, spending much of her life entering the two of them in pageants and holding grudges against them if they didn't win. she's always blamed her daughters for their father walking out, even though harley and savannah were babies at the time and anyone could have predicted it was going to happen. she's basically vile! like harley, savannah got pregnant in high school, and has a daughter. she and the daughter can be any age below twenty-two, that's up to youuu. in any case, savannah's had a rough time since the birth of her kid, and the babydaddy dragged her into his heroin habit. every so often social services try to come and take her daughter away, and that's when harley steps in, adopting her niece for short bursts of time until social services clear off. now, though, she's been pushed to her limits with savannah, and she's taken her niece to new york until savannah sorts her life out and becomes a proper mom. so yeah, that's where we are now! the suggested pb is amber heard, but anyone with vaguely similar coloring would fitttt. <3
