Hill Top Daycare (Need ONE GIRL)

(Character sheet will not edit; however, story and information will be edited)

The Hill Top Daycare was one of the most popular and best places to send your child for after school and summer daycare in the town of Whitechapel. As the town started to grow the charm of the place seemed to grow as well. Soon the small business became a sort of second community with the kids making lasting bonds and the Sheehan’s becoming the towns helping hand. Thomas and Linda Sheehan both loved their work and loved the children even more. Though the years they keep Hill Top Daycare running. Unfortunately, three months ago Linda Sheehan passed away. She was followed by her husband soon after, and now the daycare is in trouble with taxes and outside pressure to sell threatening its future.

Enter your character a former child from the daycare who received a letter informing you about the death of Mr. and Miss. Sheehan. Thinking back to those warm days at the daycare you see the funeral service will take place at the daycare. Having the time to attend you look for a respectable outfit and send back your RSVP in the mail. Please include the following in your RSVP.

------------------------

This role play will be a romantic role play. The group is already formed for the most part so please ask though PM if there is room before posting a character sheet. There will be a point in the role play where the genre will be shifting from simple romantic over to a magical realism twist. The group will be posing for a picture; however, when it develops the position for everyone will change slightly so that your character is next to their soul mate. Once this happens there should be little to no more magical moments.

Name: Colin Sheehan

Age: 23

One fond memory of the Hill Top Daycare: During the third summer at Hill Top Daycare Colin started out as a loner due to everyone having already bonded into their groups and friends. After the first week he started to dislike going to the Daycare only to be picked last for games and playing alone during other times. After a while he became the target for a bully who would constantly take the things he was playing with or using. Near the end of the summer after having a pretty miserable time the girl cornered him. Expecting the girl to finally punch him Colin was shocked when the girl kissed him in the cheek instead. The next day his parents came back and took Colin home.

History: Colin is the grandson of Sean and Linda Sheehan. Since his mother and father lived in New York he was only able to attend the Hill Top Daycare during the summer when his parents would fly him out to spend most if not all of his summer with his grandparents. During his time at the daycare Colin would be friendly, but always knew that he didn’t fully fit in since every else already had spent the whole school year together. Having to leave his friends back home every summer also made him a little upset with his family. This tension made Colin seem somewhat spoiled; however, he quickly grew out of this when he grew older and started to attend high school. At this point Colin stopped going to the daycare and instead would spend most of his free time traveling.

High school was very kind to Colin. He had his growth spurt early so the girls didn’t tower over him. He had his fathers looks where were hansom, and when combined with his mothers calm demeanor he was social with everyone and liked by almost the whole student body. Having an older sister who was one of the most popular girls in school also helped him greatly. It was during high school that Colin also found his passion in life which was languages and travel. His sophomore year was broken between his normal school and a high price international school where he took several language courses with students from all over.

Colin’s time at the international school was not only an educational experience, but also a great opportunity to make friends from around the world. One friend was a young man from India named Rajesh. Quickly the two became close friends and after Raj left for home back in India Colin begged his family to send him on a trip to see his friends home country. Getting his wish Colin spent a year after he graduated high school in India and Asia. When he came back he told his parents he had decided what his future was. Teaching English abroad.

After doing some research he found that the university in Whitechapel had an excellent teaching program. During his undergraduate in multiple languages including Arabic and Hindi Once he graduated he spent several months working on a cruise ship as a teacher for wealthy families who wanted their children he was able to convince Raj as well as a few other friend to join him on as other tutors and lifeguard work. After hearing about his grandparents passing he took a leave of absence and has gone back to help with the family estate and community. This has now given him a perfect opportunity to come back for his studies.

Name: Lyssa Montgomery

Age: 24

One fond memory of the Hill Top Daycare: Using the other children of the day care (willing or not) as guinea pigs in her quest to learn how to give hugs as good as Mrs. Sheehan's, and being able to climb the oak tree in the daycare's back yard faster than just about anyone.

Personality: quirky, spunky, caring, tomboy, forgetful, peace keeper, has an adrenaline junkie streak

Favorite Movie: Tank Girl

History: Her family moved away from town shortly after she entered high school, but Lyssa never forgot Whitechapel, The Hilltop Daycare, or the Sheehans. She's now a licensed civil engineer, in her last year of schooling for her masters in Structural Engineering.

Role Call for all those who have applied. How many people are still in this?

I'm still in.

I'm still in.

You couldn't mention for me that I said I was still in, Wake? Thanks a lot!

Oh. Well then... hehe

What wake said~. That'd be awesome. =)

I would be willing to cut the team short and have this be a four person role play. I will have to move around my schedule for the weekend and next week but I should be able to get the IC up soon. Needless to say I am very happy to see I still have a group of excellent role players for this plot

Sorry about my absence everyone

Since I've decided that Jennifer still lives in the same town (XD), she would have attended Mrs Sheehan's wake, though probably not her actual funeral, as she's uncomfortable around graveyards.

Also, from what you've said about her, Jenny probably would have sent Mrs Sheehan a short letter announcing Mia's birth, likely because she's probably seen the Sheehans around town.

Understandable, there. Still, I'll be able to use it as something to write about, I'm sure!

I'm quite certain Mrs. Sheehan stayed involved in Jenny's life, actually. Haha, she had probably been unofficially watching Mia even while she was too young for the daycare. XD

So! What else do we need to figure out? =) I won't be here for the next week, but while I'm here tonight I'm willing to help figure stuff out~.

Picture

Name: Timothy Sharp

Age: 22

One fond memory of the Hill Top Daycare: Going fishing with Mr. Sheehan and losing his glasses in the lake.

Personality: Timothy's a shy programmer who prefers his computer to people, and definately prefers talking through IM to talking through speech. Still, Mr. Sheehan was the closest thing to a father figure he had and he loved him deeply.

History: Timothy moved to Whitechapel with his mother when he was 8. Dad was a no show for his son's life so Mr. Sheehan was the closest thing to a father he had. Timothy followed Mr. Sheehan like a little puppy and was quickly taken under his wing. They went fishing together, played catch together, and bonded like a father and son while Timothy's mom worked in the town's grocery store. Timothy, or "Timmy" back then, was never really friendly with any of the other children, only playing when Mr. Sheehan encouraged him to. Now with Mr. Sheehan dead, he's came to pay his respects.

Posted!

Apologies for the absence. Finally got the good computer back yesterday and the internet/anti-virus stuff working this morning. So... I'll be able to post shortly. Probably tonight.

Oh, and due to reasons that will be revealed in the progress of the role-play (if anyone decides to ask about them and Daniel decides to inform them) my character returned to Whitechapel after leaving the band. So he was around for the funeral, Wake.
