"I've learned the hard way to never let it get that far"
Edd’s a pretty laid back guy, with a deadpan sense of humor that sometimes rubs others the wrong way. Though easily annoyed he’s patient with people who genuinely are trying. He’s an engineering student, currently in his junior year at the college. He hopes to go into a field in aircraft engineering someday.
He’s a technology whiz, so if you’ve got an issue with your phone or computer or whatever other electronic device you got? He can help you out. Cars, though? Ironically not his thing, though he took an elective course on car mechanics last year. He likes to tinker with things and answer questions. If a question doesn’t have a clear answer he’s frustrated and will try to find an answer, even if it’s impossible.
He likes to spend his time outside, not inside, and whenever possible he’s going on walks or road trips to the airport. He’s proud of his Italian heritage, and holds an immense respect for his elders (especially elderly women who remind him of his nonna).
Friends
Friends would likely be pretty laid back, outdoors-y type people who don’t mind his deadpan sense of humor. I’m up for any kind of friendship, though I think he’d be closest to someone who common interests as him (whether it be an interest in Disney, engineering, world travel, sense of humor, ect). He’s also fairly handy, so he’s a good type of friend to have around if you’re not very good with technology.
In regards to drinking he doesn’t usually drink nor does he like to get drunk, so if he was involved with peer pressure or around drunk people he could act as a more caretaker figure than a equally drunk person enabling them. He doesn't like to be around too much drinking, due to his family history. The only way he could be brought to some sort of party or bar night like that would be for him to be dragged by a friend. He'd be a good friend for someone who likes to get a bit wild, who needs someone to reel them in and make sure they get home safe and unscathed.
Enemies/Rivals
Edd’s sense of humor is likely to rub some the wrong way. He’s also quite the unintentional gossip. He tends to hear and spread rumors without realizing they’re harmful rumors, and he forms judgments based on them depending on how convincing they are. He’s not gullible but he is impressionable, and goes with the word of the crowd in most cases.
I could see him being enemies with someone based on said gossip; perhaps he believed something and was heard spreading it around and thus this leads to conflict with whomever the gossip was about? He can be insensitive when he's not personally involved in a situation. Alternitively, he could find himself on the nasty end of some kind of rumor. I'm partial to conflict and drama!
Lovers/Hookups
In terms of relationships, I'm open to anything for Edd! He’s bisexual, and has had a relationship or two in the past, so he’s not necessarily shy about it. I really like to write drama and angst over pure fluff, so if you want any triangles or unrequited stories or whatever just hit me up and we can plan something out!
In regards to hooking up, Edd’s not unopposed to it but he doesn’t do it often and it’s not as though he goes out of his way to hook up. I like there to be slow build or to at least test the waters with character chemistry before I commit to any ships, but i'd love to see any ideas for romantic situations or tension ideas!
All in all, I'm to spitball ideas back and forth, so let me know if anything sounds good! He's been at Copper Harbor for close to 4 years now, since his freshman year at the college.

Okay here is my horde of people... I'm extremely open to anything so if you have any ideas or changes shoot them at me.
Gianna Rose Lee I think these two could get along and be on friendly terms, she is witty and sarcastic and just a fun person. She is a Dance/theatre student and very passionate about her art.
Khloe Alissa Kingsley Khloe is my baby at just 18 years old. She is a Culinary student and if they ever met would probably bug the crap out of him asking about Italian food. She is sweet, kind and overly bubbly. So she can be a bit annoying to some people, but she doesn't mean to be.
Vincent James Altman I don't see these two really getting along as friends but I don't think they would really have a problem with each other either. Vince is just a super awkward person and business major. If he somehow found out Edd was gifted Electronically though he might come to him for help, Vince isn't really up with technology. His sister insisted he get a instagram and he did to get her to be quiet, but he hasn't even used it because he has no idea how to use it or what hashtags are.
PETRA ALICE NOVAK These two are the same age and have been at college for all 4 years at the same time. I could be wrong, but what about really good friends for these two? Petra comes off as a ice queen sometimes and is often times miss understood. People tend not to really like her unless they have gotten to know her she can be a bit stuck up, she tends to push people away because she has a hard time trusting them. She is strong willed, sarcastic, hard working and smart. She is a Biology Major. She is also a big nerd, she loves playing video games and I could totally see her secretly adoring Disney movies. Petra has a big heart it just takes special people to know that. Petra also isn't in to partying or drinking much.
CORALEE JANE NOVAK Cora is Petra's younger sister, she is a fashion major. I'm not really sure about these two...she is your typical popular mean girl, complete b*tch most of the time and it takes a special person to get a long with her. Though he could possibly get a fair share of gossip from her but they probably wouldn't be on too good of terms.

Awesome! I like those ideas! I think that maybe Edd could have gone to see some of the shows that Gianna Rose Lee is in, and I think their senses of humor would go well together. Like, I could see them knowing each other in passing and since she's so friendly whenever they meet up they can talk and banter back and forth but they don't really know each other that well? Like fort of casual friends if you will? Edd would definitely admire her dancing talents even though he's not good at dancing or acting. Sort of like he's a bit of a fan.
Oooh, if Khloe Alissa Kingsley is a culinary student and enjoys cooking, especially Italian foods, then I think they could be good friends! Even though she's a bit bubbly he'd probably enjoy her bright personality although I can be it being one of those friendships where he can only take it in small doses! I could even see him maybe getting some recipes from his nonna and, if she's up for it, she could always try to make them and that can be kind of one of the things that brings them together? Bonding over food, haha
Yeah I think that works, if Vincent James Altman and he maybe had a general class together or something, that that sat beside each other in, and he asked for help with technonolgy or instagram, then Edd would have helped him set stuff up and would attempt to teach him how it works!
oooohhh i LOVE the idea of really good friends for Edd and PETRA ALICE NOVAK ! I think that her icy personally wouldn't have put Edd off, instead he would probably have given some sort of deadpan comment and not really been intimidated and responded more to her sarcasm. I think that her interest in some of the nerdy things could be something that brings them together too, like they could just chill and talk about Disney movies and go to see them and all of those fun things! Edd could definitely be persuaded to check out a few video games with her as well. I don't know if you'd be up for them being best friends if you have a best friend already for her, but I think that their interest and senses of humor could mesh really well.
I think that Edd would probably avoid CORALEE JANE NOVAK whenever he could. If he's good friends with Petra I could see him maybe knowing her really only through Petra and what she says about her. Since she's the typical sort of mean girl type I can see if she ever says some kind of gossip or whatever, it'd be typical of Edd to carelessly spread it and believe it even though it might be exaggerated or fake.
Post by PETRA ALICE NOVAK on Mar 14, 2018 20:24:40 GMT
@giana Ya definitely Casual friends, she would chat away with him if he was around and would probably partner up with him if they ever had a core class together or needed study buddies. She would love him for the simple fact that he admires her so that's points in her book lol.
Khloe Alissa Kingsley I think this would be super fun, I can totally see them in the kitchen together and khloe trying to follow the recipes he brought. She is always up for something new and unlike some people she doesn't mind sharing "her" kitchen. Bonding over food certainly is the best way to become her friend or to get to know her. Even she gets the small dossage thing. Khloe is actually married, you know crazy high school romance and secret marriage right out of high school that have left her parents not talking to her. But her husband even says she is too much sometimes, but he loves her so he learns to love it lol.
PETRA ALICE NOVAK I would be totally down with them being Besties. Little fun fact they are both bisexual, though Petra isn't exactly "out" if you will. In fact she hasn't really talked about it to any one. Yes two grown ass adults going to the movie theatre to see a disney movie and having no kids with them and getting that look like "wouldn't you rather see Tomb Raider or something?" #NoShame. If when they first met during their first year he kept talking to her and didn't really care if she gave him the cold shoulder she probably would have eventually given up and started to talk back. If people push it out of her she tends to open up quickly, she doesn't respond to the quiet intimidated type. I totally see disney movie marathon nights for these two, and it would probably annoy the crap out of their dorm roommates lol. Petra would probably scold him if she caught him spreading rumors started by her sister, 99% of them are just fake to get back at people.
CORALEE JANE NOVAK would probably lead Edd alone for the most part since he is Petra's best friend. Her and her sister are not close but there is a mutual respect and love towards each other. Now don't get me wrong she would still be the mean brat she is but it would just be toned down.
Payton Mae Laski would probably annoy the hell out of him with her bubbliness and ditziness. She's a smart girl, but doesn't apply herself. She's attending Copper Harbor to become an actress. She does love to try new things, so I could see her attempting to learn more about electronics (and failing). She tends to be overbearing about the fact she's going to be famous one day. They would probably tolerate each other, at least?
Ryan Stuber is fairly laid-back. I could see these two getting along. He's a business major, but has a love for the environment. He's very eco-friendly. He loves conversation, but doesn't open up about himself. He was abused as a kid, and he hates talking about his home life. He tends to be in a good mood always, but gets stressed out fairly easily, due to not taking care of his emotional needs.
Garrett Mobley is kind of a brute. He's very blunt and to the point. I'm not sure these two would get along at all. Garrett isn't unfriendly, but he's very controlling and wants things done his way. He's at Copper Harbor for law enforcement. He has a hard time caring about other people's feelings, and says things he shouldn't.
Skyler Renee Brigham is friendly, kind and sweet, most of the time. She is currently medicated for Bipolar Disorder II, and hasn't told anyone here at Copper Harbor. I think these two could get along quite well. Friends, maybe? She is very open and honest, and loves to be around people.
Charlee Blaise Litwin is a straight bitch. I'm pretty sure these two would avoid each other. Charlee is very fake, very sweet and innocent to your face, but behind your back, she's a terrible person. She loves drama, and loves to spread rumors. So if you want that going on, just let me know, and we can figure something out?

Khloe Alissa Kingsley Haha, I love that! I read up on her history and saw the whole secret marriage family drama – I love it! I saw you had a wanted add for her husband up so if someone does wind up making him then i’m sure Edd would likely know him too by that point. I think Edd would really appreciate her interest in trying new recipes and he’d probably take photographs to show his nonna after each dish. I think Edd would also be interested to try any deviations in the recipes she might have from her culinary mind – like if she had any modifications or was trying any new recipes out, he’d check them out. I think they’d be a cute pair of friends, and though she can be a bit much and can only be taken in small doses, he’d have a soft spot for her!
PETRA ALICE NOVAK Awesome! Nice, I can see if she does ever want to talk about it to anyone, Edd would be a willing ear. He’s more neutral on his sexuality; he’s accepted it and won’t deny it or anything but he’s also not really one to flaunt it or mention it too often. If you did want to have her bring up her sexuality to him I could see some kind of trigger being him mentioning his sexuality, which he didn’t really mention before in their friendship somehow? Haha, yes, they’d be those friends that are constantly going to see the newest Disney movies with no concern given to the judgmental stares. As long as they can get popcorn and watch the cheesy happy endings all is well! Yes, their poor roommates xD Especially classic Disney movies! He’d deserve it, and would probably be taken aback too if she called him out for spreadign anything Cora said, but then he’d be like, ‘oh yeah that’s probably a lie’ and dismiss it. XD He can’t help but be a little nosy about gossip though even if he tries to avoid it! And I think that works for him and CORALEE JANE NOVAK too, if she has a respect for Petra and they mostly jsu tleave each other alone, but know of each other due to their mutual relationships with Petra!
Payton Mae Laski Ooh, if she wanted to learn technology and electronics for something that could be a way they’d interact! Maybe for some kind of role she’s landed she wants to get more technology know-how to get more in character, plus also, if she just has an interest in learning new things! He’d be willing to help her out and teach her something, though I can see her constantly pointing out how she’ll be famous one day grating under his skin and, if he ever thought she wasn’t genuinely interested in learning what he was showing her or thought she was losing interest I could see that sparking some frustration on his end!
If Ryan Stuber is very eco-friendly, I think he and Edd would get along! Since he doesn’t like to talk about his past Edd’s not the type to really pry unless he’s invited. I could see them as casual friends maybe?
Haha, reading Garrett Mobley and his bio makes me think that he and Edd definitely wouldn’t get along. XD I think that Edd would find his controlling way of wanting to do things extremely annoying. However, I can also see him thinking that the guy’s really attractive, but not wanting to say it because he thinks that the guy’s too cocky already with how he always wants to be in control. The both of them have a tendency to say things that may unintentionally hurt other peoples feelings so I could see maybe if they were paired up for something or had to work together for an event or something, it would not go well at all, and Edd would definitely just get more and more irritated by him!
That sounds good to me for Skyler Renee Brigham ! I did actually respond to your open thread here to get started on a roleplay; so maybe that can be their first meeting since I didn’t have him recognize her? I could see him appreciating her open personality, and he’d probably enjoy her company! I can see him becoming very used to her ‘high’ side, so to speak, so if he ever met her when she was feeling on a ‘low’ day he’d definitely be confused!
Omg I love straight bitch characters so much! XD I think that Edd would definitely avoid Charlee Blaise Litwin. Especially if he knew her backstabbing personality. I think that could make for some good drama in the future if she does wind up feeding him gossip or if he winds up on the other end of the gossip train!
