Snyder and Jess: A love tale between a clumsy beanpole and hyper goth

Claudia...the "hm" girl is Snyder's ex-girlfriend. Pictures some chains and whips in the sketch and you've got the personality down.

Ah, Jesder! The couple of all couples, not really.

So, let's start with Snyder Oliver Sullivan, the most +fail character in the story...but that's why I love him. *Pats him with tongs*. Some tidbits:

Age: 21

Hair: Naturally dark brown and long. He dyes it black and red, usually.

Favorite food: Dumplings and meat

Birthday: February 12, 1987 (aquarius)

Eyes: Light blue

Height: 6'8'' (he's a freak)

Family: Father and older brother

Major: Architecture

What can I say about "Stringbean" Sullivan? He's an Irishman at heart, but not really. Plagued with the name 'Snyder', which is 99% of the time used as a surname only, Snyder has been a failure from the start. He was born to a Scandinavian mother who had health issues that surfaced when his older brother Cornelius was born, making the possibility of having another child highly dangerous. Therefore, Snyder's accidental birth led to his mother's eventual death when he was about six or seven years old, causing massive insecurities throughout his life. His father, a criminal lawyer, grew colder and more insecure as well after his wife's death and treated Snyder as the mistake he was, causing a rebellious streak in his life. After his mother's death, Snyder became extremely death paranoid and began having nightmares of banshees. His dad's name is also Magnus, which didn't help. After rejecting his father's strict wisdom on career choices, women, and life, unlike his brother, Snyder went on to join the band "Smokescreen" as the lead singer. This led to his punk look and life, landing him a girlfriend (Claudia Blume) that he adored but was much more than he was ready to handle. Although they dated for five or more years, Claudia broke the relationship off several times throughout. Even though his band broke up after High School, Snyder still kept his punk look and insecurities into college, picking a fair major that wouldn't upset his father but would still be sort of fun. After Snyder's life became drowned in video games, the joys of having a rich girlfriend, and punk music, Claudia gave their relationship a final and messy blow after finding out about her possible ovarian cancer and waiting for Snyder to figure it out by himself. This led to a chain of terrible events; his brother was involved in a terrible accident on his way to England, he overdosed on caffeine and alcohol, suffered from hypothermia after his stomach pump, and refused to eat or sleep for several days. He was torn up and began dreaming of banshees bringing death to him again when he fell in love with Jess.

Basically he's a clumsy, lanky, and awkward punk dude who can't hold his alcohol.

Now, Jessica Eleanor Morrison (who belongs to Banak), is a bit better. Tidbits:

Age: 2o

Hair: Curly and blond

Favorite food: I can't remember!

Birthday: August 23, 1988 (Virgo)

Height: 5'7''

Family: Two parents and older brother

Major: Psychiatry/Psychology

Jessica, or Jess as she is known, is a bouncy goth girl of 20 years old who is the youngest in her strict family. Ever since she was young she has felt the lack of affection of her two accountant parents and her much older brother, Derik Curtis. She couldn't even come home to announce good news to her parents, because they would be off for something more "important", like her brother's chess tournament. Due to the lack of time for their daughter, her parents didn't see what was coming (just kidding). However, Jess still maintains her optimistic look on life with her naturally excitable and bouncy demeanor. This doesn't mean she was always this way, though. She still struggled with insecurity through her years and went with the Gothic crowd, although her beaming personality eventually took over and made her into a bouncy Goth. She met her boyfriend, Nate, early in her High School years and they have been dating for over five years. Although the two remained affectionate, something in their relationship was lacking even though they didn't know it. Jess has always had a natural knack for reading people and sensing their emotions, which usually results in her putting herself in other people's business. She means well, though, and makes friends extremely quickly this way. She accidentally fell in love with Snyder when her boyfriend rented the other side of his duplex and Jess tangled herself with Snyder's recent break up. She has yet to tell her current boyfriend, who's caught on to her, about this new love.

Could you think of a love story any more eccentric? Well we sure could. Those will come up later.

But they found each other, and now their youngest sibling insecurities are GONE!
