moons and junes and ferris wheels [/i][/SIZE] CHAI![/b][/i][/color] Willem Van Der Holt | Nineteen | Political ScienceDutch | Bisexual | Single Oh, little Chai, sweet little Chai. Little Chai (who is actually all legs and pretty tall) is a sweet young Dutch boy with a heart of gold and more kindness in his soul than he knows what to do with. He's the type of kid who would stand on your porch with a bouquet of flowers in the rain just because you had a cold and he wanted to make sure you're okay. Although his English is questionable at times, he does give it his best effort and will resort to interpretive dance when needed. His culinary prowess and his unimpeachable sense of humour make him an endearing figure to his friends. He'd love to make you food. Or speak to you in a foreign language. Or race you to the swingset. love him. he loves love. ![/i][/SIZE]
[/font][/right] you know that I'm no good [/i][/SIZE] Orion[/b][/i][/color] Orion Amadeus Abdiel | Twenty-six | English professor No one knows | Single Orion is frigid, in every sense of the word. He's secluded, indifferent, and impassionate when it comes to people. He's indifferent (or, afraid rather) of romantic relationships and doesn't let many people get close to him because he sees many people as less than barely tolerable. Although he's not mean, as he doesn't say anything directly impolite to anyone, his demeanor and lack of body language is spooky to most. He's odd in that he doesn't have many enemies either because he just simply doesn't care. His sensational ability to be completely unresponsive, even being insulted to his face, has saved him from a lot of troubling encounters. Additionally, he's incredibly intelligent, so when he does talk to people, some may be a little put-off by his knack of talking over people's heads. [/s] Orion is currently living in Italy. He may or may not come back to this god forsaken country. >:|[/i][/SIZE]
[/font][/left] when you're strange, no one remembers your name [/i][/SIZE] Rafi[/b][/i][/color] Rufino Leon Araya Guerrero | Twenty-one | BartenderSpanish | Straight | Single Rafi is just a little lost in life right now. Having gone from multimillion dollar pampered prince to a scrappy mouse, he has gone through some very serious changes in his life that are making him reflect on his own person and morals. Although he is still entirely subject to being self-centered and egocentric, more and more these days he is becoming a kinder, softer breed of person. In many ways, Rafi is a complete man-child. His Olympic athlete-like body and wanna-see-my-astonishing-biceps strut ooze testosterone and maleness. Yet, his sweet humility and self-effacing attempts at humour show his mild, gentle nature. He's unimaginably devoted to his romantic relationships and has this uncanny ability to flirt and make-out without being a slut about it. swoon, swoon, swoon. <3[/i][/SIZE]
[/font][/right] it's time for a new revolution [/i][/SIZE] Ari[/b][/i][/color] Ari J. Morphis | Nineteen | Soccer Athlete/Business Straight | Single Ari knows exactly what he wants in life and how to get it. He lives, breathes, and eats soccer on a daily basis and everything he does is a devotion to his sport. The physical and mental strain he puts on himself is enormous and will probably lead to his ultimate end. As a soccer player, he is a horrible and cruel person, which has given him the nickname of “The Butcher” on the field; however, once he’s showered away the venom in a game, he’s quite calm and collect, if standoffish. He does have this habit of being territorial, especially over his friends and family, and has been famed for picking fights with people he deems as threatening. As a nineteen year old with major international teams already looking to recruit him when he graduates, he does tend to an inflated sense of self-worth like most athletes of his caliber. Hey Rafi, como se dice: refuse to lose? If you don’t give him a reason to be competitive, he can actually be a pretty cool person to hang out with, with his slapstick sense of humor and his rather spontaneous outlook. at least he's cute XD[/i][/SIZE]
[/font][/left] feel the warmth of the flame [/i][/SIZE] Alistar[/b][/i][/color] Alistar Jake Barnes | Twenty-four | Beat CopStraight | Single Alistar is the superhero wannabe. When he’s not working as a beat cop or folding origami cats for his fellow officers, he’s sitting at home working on a website called Oliland, a popular art and literature sharing webpage that Alistar runs under his secret identity: Oli. He hasn’t told anyone about his artistic side or his website because he romanticizes the idea of having a secret “superhero life” that no one else knows about. He’s a good guy that enjoys talking, mostly about his love of taking baths, carving pumpkins, playing badminton, and eating cashews. As people go, he’s amazingly level headed, determined, and never does things in halves. He’s the voice of reason, the solid rock, the ever-flowing spring that loves his friends and family easily, but not recklessly.
Oh, and he just adopted a border collie puppy named Ernest, named after his soul-mate Ernest Hemingway. And who doesn't love puppies?[/i][/SIZE]
[/font][/right] paying my dues to the dirt, i'm on the top of the world [/i][/SIZE] Leo[/b][/i][/color] Leo Colombo | Twenty-five | Grad Student Drama/Theater | Retired National Geographic Journalist Straight | Single Leo is the lost puppy. Having travelled so much throughout his life, he has truly lost his sense and understand of "home" and, as a result, is lost in what to do with himself. Feeling more at home on an airport floor than in his new, posh house in Orange Island that he recently bought after retiring as a journalist for National Geographic, Leo is just trying to fit in to normal life after a particularly bad accident in the remote Yeti preserve of Bhutan left him in the hospital for three months. Now twenty-five and retired with more money than he knows what to do with, Leo busies himself with worry over his receding hairline, traveling for fun, picking up freelance journalist jobs, and pursuing a graduate degree in drama and theater. Did I mention he's an avid hiker and has climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro and Mt. Aconcagua? That's he's been arrested thirty-seven times in over seventeen countries? That he's eaten thirteen types of animals that were still alive at the time, including, but not limited to: larva, scorpions, and baby snakes? That he collects hats from around the world (and currently owns over 500?), Oh, and that he's a complete badass? he'll take you where ever you wanna go 8D[/i][/SIZE]

-loves him-
CHAI & TEDDY Well. Idk when he and Teddy would ever meet bc Teddy is 22 and a cop, but if they did, they'd be boring friendy types, prob. So that's fun xD.
CHAI & AVERY They are the same age annnd I think Avery would like hanging out with him because he is super nice and fails at English. She would probably make fun of him a lot. They should defs be friends.
CHAI & JULIETTE Juliette is also super nice. She would totally try to help him with his english. I think they would be funny because she would constantly just think it was too mean to ask him for any sort of clarification on his english or anything like that xD.
CHAI & CADEN They are also the same age, but Caden doesn't go to school. But he would think Chai was the best person to have around ever. xD He's very fail and just likes being around people. Also Chai has pretty hair.
CORALIE & CHAI CHAI HAS THE PRETTIEST HAIR and Coralie would love it and want to play with it and dress him and treat him like a doll. Also, he is nice, so she would want him to carry things for her. xD
Thooose are my only characters close to his age xD

Oh my—so many characters, so much love. Chai would be…. Squealing. XD
So, after reading through your bios, here’s what I’ve got:
Teddy & Chai: I agree. Chai is way too much of a goody two-shoes to ever get in any serious trouble but it could be amusing for poor Chai to get really drunk one night and be sneaking around somewhere downtown trying to be quiet and stealthy with a chocolate bar (lactose free of course!) and Teddy finds him. The poor boy begins to throw a complete fit--- in Dutch of course. Other than that, I haven’t got much.
Avery & Chai: Avery. Is. Awesome. I agree. They would make awesome friends. I think it could be amusing if Avery tries to convince Chai to say dirty, morally incorrect things in English because he doesn’t know any better. XD
Juliette & Chai: Poor girl is just nodding idly as Chai goes off on some weird tangent that doesn’t even make any sense. Plus, they both seem to be great students, so, I could see them being study buddies. Chai would LOVE to show her how to water plants with tea, too!
Caden & Chai: Chai would just be in love with Caden. Like, “Can I just sit here and pet your beautiful face while I rip my heart out and give it to you?” sort of love. He is a beautiful, beautiful mammal.
Coralie & Chai: Well, Chai being Chai, and having this extreme desperation to please everyone, he’d probably sit there and let her do whatever she wanted to his hair, face, or, well, anything. I feel, in a way, Chai might really confide things in her because he would absorb some of that girly, gossipy energy she has going on. “OH MY GOD, GURL, I LOVE CADEN. WOE IS ME.” Except, in really bad English.
I don't know. 8D Just some things that popped in to my head while reading through your astounding bios. Your writing is phenomenal!

Sophia + Chai Sophia would adore him! She would love him and mother him and want to keep him forever! She would find his accent adorable and since she has grown up dealing with kids (who can't manage to speak understandable english until they are about 7 or 8) she would be able to understand him pretty well. Not to say that she would see him as a little kid. The first meeting would be a bit rocky as she is not that great at putting herself out of her comfort zones but she with a little courage they could become pretty close! PLUS if he lives on campus they would be in the same hall!
Lori + Chai Lori would find him to be a very interesting creature if she found out that he had traveled around Europe. She would also find him attractive as she likes the boys with longer hair.
Steven + Chai I don't see how they would ever interact because of the age difference but he would probably get along with Chai pretty well.

Chai&Will: Idt they would ever meet but Will would enjoy making things up in Dutch and thinking he was really speaking it lol.
Chai&Nate: Nate is blunt and not too social so it may be a bit awkward for them to be alone. Nate would definitely help with the learning English bit. He's very into books and history.
Chai&Cass: Cass would LOVE him! They're both foreigners (Cass is from Ireland) and Cass is deaf, so the language thing really would be interesting to see. She's a master lipreader though so they should be fine. She's very outgoing and sweet and I think they would be SO CUTE lol.
Chai&Emily: Emily would be scared of him because he is an older boy lol. She is a freshman and incredibly timid, but he'd put her at ease eventually with his sweetness.
Chai&Jack: Jack is gay and fabulous and loud. He may be a bit overwhelming for Chai, but Jack is actually really sweet...and gossipy lol. If Chai wanted to live in the dorms they could be roommates :D
Chai&Alessa: She would totally understand the language difficulty because she immigrated from Italy and had to learn English on her own. I don't know how much they would interact but they might be pretty good friends.
If you want to read about my characters you can check them all out here :D

Thank you all so much for making me feel so welcome. ^^ This place is fantastic!
Sophia&Chai: I feel like Chai would make an awkward situation even more awkward. Either that, or he’d make not awkward at all because he’d say something completely ridiculous that would just break the ice. I think he would totally make the first move towards conversation with her. He’d probably be giving her cookies he baked because she looked like a “pretty soul who needed a cookie.”
Lori&Chai: I don’t know how Chai would react to Lori. I think he would be equally fascinated by and horrified of her. Fascinated because, well, he loves everyone (or tries to), and horrified because her attitude may cause Chai to wonder if there is something wrong with him and that’s why she’s grumpy. I feel like this could be a terribly great love-hate thing? One moment, they’re best friends, the next moment, they’re not.
Steven&Chai: If they ever interacted it would be over their love of food.
Will&Chai: I think Chai would be really put-off by Will if they ever met. I don’t think Chai would understand his sense of humour due to the language barrier. He would probably just be very, very confused about the whole Dutch thing and would ask what language he was speaking. XD
Cass&Chai: Oh my, I have a feeling Chai would have a really hard time understanding this lovely woman and would have to resort to his goofy interpretive dance. He has a hard time understanding English as it is, let alone accents! Still, I think it would be charming to have them have their own sign language of sorts. I think he would just adore her to absolute itsy-bitsy pieces and would probably end up calling her Casserole. And than make her lots of casseroles.
Nate&Chai: I agree. I’ve got nothing.
Emily&Chai: Chai can be a very overwhelming personality, especially if you’re a shy person and he’s running around saying things like: “Hello, my name is Chai and I like to meet you!” but he is also so delicate with things he perceives as fragile, I’d almost wonder if he’d want to take on a roll as a big brother to her.
Jack&Chai: I think they would make hilarious roommates. Those threads would be hilarious.
Alessa&Chai: Chai lived in Italy and speaks Italian! Chai might get a little clingy to her as a result because he can communicate much better in Italian than he can in English. It might make him feel a little more intelligent to actually be able to communicate with someone in a fluid, educated way.

Love them! Alessa would definitely help Chai out because she remembers how horrible it felt to be so confused all the time. Cass would love being around him with their little language and she loves food and cooking so it's even better lol. Emily would grow to really accept that, especially since she doesn't hear from her older brother much anymore. Jack and Chai are going to be amazing.
SO EXCITED xD

Teddy & Chai: bahah that would be funny xD
Avery & Chai: YES. it'll be like my big fat greek wedding, but in English. Avery would so do that xDD
Juliette & Chai: Omg. That sounds rly cool. >> He should def do that. She would then brag about her new knowledge like GUESS WHAT I LEARNED TODAY FROM MY NEW BFFL CHAI <3
Caden & Chai: o.m.g. caden would die if there was a boy in love with him. he would love it so much. he would ham it up. it would be his favorite. xDD
Coralie & Chai: YES THEY SHOULD TOTES BE BFFS. I have an open thread in the dining hall IF YOU WANT TO THREAD bc I want her to have friends lolol. Alllllso, Lacey says that Margot would also love him and Margot and Coralie are roommates, so he can hang out in their room frequently and Coralie can just dress him while they all chat. she'll just be like CARRY ON DEAR ;D -CLOTHES-
and aww, thank you xD <3 yours is NONE TOO SHABBY either ;D <333

Poor Chai, he’s going to get his little, delicate heart broken by Caden. I don’t think he’ll care though. XD He’ll just love him even more for it. New life goal for Chai: Get in that boy’s pants. I mean… what? O_o
I’d love to join your thread with Carolie. I’ll get on that right away! Her, her, her. Haha, could you imagine the slumber parties!? And the girly gossip!? And the CLOTHES!? My joy would never end.
I could really see Chai being really close to Cass? Because who doesn’t like having to dance to your friend!?
Also: Yes please. ^^ Except, I just noticed Jack is a sophomore and Willem is a Junior. Aren't those separate dorms? I looked at that earlier today.
