SO SAY GERONIMO! [o, intro]

[rue]

I dare you to jump off the roof and into the dumpster below! Gem was the Truth or Dare master, you know why? One, she always picked dare, and two, she did any dare thrown at her, and that means any dare. This one wasn’t any different, although some would say it was on the dangerous side. No big deal, she’d done worse things in the past. Like that one time Grub had dared her to roll around in raw meat and go taunt the dogs. In the end she needed two stitches and a lot of Band-Aids, but the younger kids had practically worshiped her for that whole week. Like come on, who cared about constantly being in pain when you had little gremlins obeying your every command? Seriously, it was awesome. Anyway, the teenager was currently standing on the store’s roof looking down at the ground, where some of the kids were adding some trash bags and pillows into a dumpster. After a couple of minutes they looked up at her and gave her the thumbs up, a gesture she happily returned. “’Kay then,” She yelled down to them, “I’ll jump on three! 1, 2, 3!” On 3 she suddenly launched off of the roof, curling into a cannonball as she plummeted down towards the ground and hit the dumpster with a loud ‘umph’, probably startling anyone who happened to be walking by at that moment. All the kids were silent for a minute, and one of the taller boys peered in to get a better look. Is she dead? No look, she's twitching. Maybe she broke a bone. When it looked like the girl was actually dead, or at least passed out, Gem suddenly sat up and looked around, but it looked like everyone had ran away as quickly as possible, probably thinking that she was a zombie or something. Wusses.

NAME: gemma arabeth coleman
NICKNAMES: gem, cole, germ
AGE: 14
SEX/GENDER: female

APPEARANCE: to be honest, gem looks more like a boy than a girl. she has light brown skin from being outside all the time, and a scrawny, muscular build. she has curly brown hair, though it is shaved to the point where there's barely a centimeter of it remaining, and her eyes are a dark brown / almost black. another thing to note is that she's missing a few teeth / has a large gap in her two front teeth, along with the fact that her chest is almost completely flat, something she’s proud of. 

CLOTHES: restating what was said before, gem tends to look, and dress, like a boy. you can normally find her in a dirty white undershirt and brown work pants with cotton hand wraps and nothing to cover her feet. occasionally she can be found in an almost comically large grey overcoat, one that was presumably given to her by her parents. but in truth, she probably stole it from someone.

PERSONALITY: gem can best be described as a fighter. fierce and unyielding, she doesn't let anyone tell her what to do, and dislikes authority figures. to go with this, she's a rulebreaker, and while she doesn't activity look to make trouble, she somehow always gets into it. maybe it's because she's always provoking people into fights, or just because she's so goddamn stubborn at times. though once you get to know her she'll prove to be fiercely loyal, and tends to treat everyone she knows as if they were family. so what if you don't like her non-stop pestering and inconvenient wrestling matches? in her opinion, it comes with the 'friend' job description.

THINGS TO NOTE:
1: she likes to steal stuff, so don’t be surprised if your belongings go missing
2: she tends to start fights, and will finish them. though she’s against breaking bones / killing people[/spoiler]

( track for tomorrow since ive got a headache ! )

[Advay.]

[align=center][size=8pt]Sadly, despite the chaotic situation of whatever someone was shouting about, and why a few guys were running past him, he had to go that way. Advay sighed, whistling for his dogs to heel and follow him down the path. They trailed after him, their tongues out and happy to be going out to play with the ball Advay had in his hand. Of course, it was all fun and games until he started past a dumpster and some girl just...popped out of it. It scared poor Africa so bad that, despite how even tempered and chill she was, he turned and let out a slight growl. The others two dogs fared worse and barked at the surprising girl. Advay, sadly, got it the worst, jumping so hard his entire body shuttered and he hit the opposite wall, green eyes wide and unnerved. Whatever noises came out of his mouth couldn't even be put into any sort of language or words, just nervous, anxiety ridden stammers of racing thoughts, something he was far too shocked to try to sort through quick enough to keep himself from not looking like an idiot in front of...whoever the hell this was.

[rue]

She would've understood if Advay had just flinched or taken a step back, but instead the guy seemed to be thoroughly spooked at her appearance, and ended up slamming into a nearby wall. Man, did this guy jump easily or what? "Geez, did I really scare you that bad?" She questioned, standing up and dusting off her clothes. She didn't really care if they got dirty, but it was a habit of hers that she intended to break. "You look like you've seen a ghost or something." His dogs looked pretty riled t- wait, his dogs? The realization caused her to swing herself out of the dumpster and land in a crouching position, a large grin forming on her face as she took in the sight in front of her. "You have dogs!" She pointed out happily. Next to wrestling and other generic mischief, dogs were high on the Top 5 things Gemma likes' list. Probably number three or four. The teen took a moment to root in her pockets before whipping out a piece of beef jerky, taking a small bite out of it before spitting the rest into pieces and offering them to the dogs. When she was done with that, Gemma would look back up and Advay and raise a brow in question. "You're not going to have a heart attack, are you? Then I would just feel bad."

[Advay.]

[align=center][size=8pt]Advay stared down at his feet for a moment as she chidded him without really meaning to. Advay had a weak heart when he wasn't expecting as much. Being away from Calum so much left him off guard, concidering the kid wasn't about to randomly pop out of doorways and crash into him with a hug. His heart ached momentarily; he wanted to visit Moksha. He was sure Cal was with him. The girl's attention moved onto his dogs, two of which were still barking, and Africa, the Chow, had backed up towards Advay unhappily. As she offered jerky, he tensed. "D-d-do you know how tha-that was made? W-was it salted? T-they can-can't have salted m-me-meat, it upse-upset's their sto-stomachs..." Oh, oh gosh. Mostly, Aruba.

Atlantis, however, was already showing down on a piece, struggling to chew it. "No-n-n-no," Advay snipped at Aruba, who sat down patiently, and Africa following suit while Advay warily watched the stranger. "I-I-I'm no-not that o-old," he sneered, green eyes defiant as he reached up to pull his scarf away from his angular face.

[rue]

She could tell that she already wasn't on good terms with the man, but hearing him say that the dogs couldn't have salted meat just made things worse. Of course they couldn't. Leave it up to her to scare someone half to death and poison their dogs within minutes of meeting them. The teen would silently silently watch with a mixture of self-anger and horror as the dogs started chowing down on the jerkey, and for a moment she was tempted to leap up and take the pieces away before realizing that this might be considered a hostile movement. "I- I'm sorry." Was all she could choke out, her voice slightly horse.

She soon snapped out of it upon seeing, and hearing, Advay's response to her question, all previous traces of regret at her actions washing out of her gaze to be replaced with annoyance. So that's how they were going to react? Alright then, she had no problem matching the tone. "I never said you were old." Gem responded angrily, standing up and leaning against the dumpster. "Anyone can suffer from a heart-attack, it doesn't matter how old you are. So don't give me that bull-shit. Who the fuck are you anyway?"

[Advay.]

[align=center][size=8pt]Advay's eyes narrowed slightly, and he rolled his shoulders back while she spoke. "Okay, sm-sm-smartass," came the surprisingly angry snap, his posture tensing to the point of Aruba giving a growl, sidling up next to the alpha. He took a moment to reach down and pet the Samoyed for a moment before growling out, "I-I'm the M-Master o-o-of s-stocks here." He narrowed his green eyes sat her, challenging her to talk back again. He had no fear of giving her mouth a hard crack with the back of his fingers; something his mother used to do to him. "I, I, I keep everyone f-f-fed and ha-ha-happy at the-the-the baseline of things." Atlantis, on the other hand, was not angry, or even paying attention, instead he was busy gnawing on more jerky.
