Re: Arcadia's Event Congrats - Sign Ups!
in reply to a message by Arcadia
Partner One
Name: Frances "Franny" Margaret Prince (24)
Career: Photographer
Bio: Franny is the second youngest of four children, raised in a factory town in central Illinois. Her mom was a librarian, her dad a chemical engineer. She never felt like they got along too well, but they didn't divorce until she was a sophomore in high school. To her shock, her dad bounced completely, leaving the state for a new job and refusing to finalize the divorce (and child support) for almost two years. Franny had lived a very middle class life until they, but her last three years of high school were spent sharing a one bed room apartment with her mom and younger sister, working a waitress job to help the family. Burned by the past three years of financial woes, Franny decided to major in accounting because it seemed very stable. But two years into her degree she realize she couldn't deny her passions. She moved to the city and started studying photography, even though it meant taking on student dept. Graduation was terrifying for Franny, but luckily she was able to make it work, doing product photography for a major retailer during the week and her own artistic projects on weekends.
Partner Two
Name: Damon Harold Horsfall (24)
Career: Nutritionist/Therapist
Bio: Damon is the only son of two working artists in Chicago. While they've always stayed in the city, his parents are restless types and change apartments every few years, meaning Damon changed elementary schools all the time. He jokes it was like being in a military family, except without actually moving anywhere fun. Due to a childhood injury, Damon's in a wheelchair. That made all the school switching extra hard, because not only was he always new, he was always different. Damon overcame it by being super outgoing and funny. He's super fun to be around. But sometimes he falls into deep depressions. He tries his best to always hide them, but they can take their toll on his relationships. At least one ex left because of them. Due to his accident, Damon developed an interest in medicine and the human body. He double majored in art therapy and nutrition, and works primarily with children with special health needs and eating disorders.
Relationship
Franny and Damon met at a kareoke bar. Franny was singing badly and Damon started heckling her - but sweetly. She went over to his table when she was done and he bought her a drink. They really hit it off and went out on a date the next day. After four months, they implusively decided to move in together. It was way too soon, making for a really rough transition. Damon wasn't used to having a strict budget, but Franny clung to hers like a lifeboat. They fought about money a lot. And chores - Franny can be forgetful, but Damon is very structured in his cleaning. And then Damon fell into a depression. Franny didn't even know he delt with depression yet. But the high were high enough that they decided to stick together. They've been together for eighteen months, living together just over a year, and they're pretty happy. They plan to get married, have kids, vacation -- eventually. Right now, they're both early in their careers and they both have student dept. Damon's special needs put extra financial strain on their relationship. They just want to coast for a while. List my have other plans...
