RYAN JAMES WHITTINGTON
TWENTY-FOUR - PLAYTIME FOR THE YOUNG AND RICH - LEAD VOCALS - JOHN O'CALLAGHAN

okay, let's start with the basics here. who are you, how old are you, where are you from, and what do you do?

i'm ryan james whittington, twenty-four years old, from minnesota, and i sing in a band.

that's awesome. now how'd you get started with that?

how did i get started with what? with my name? my age? where i'm from? or with singing? oh, you probably meant the singing thing. right, let's be more specific, shall we? things just sorta happened... i grew up in minnesota, decided i had to get the fuck outta there, went to california, met some band members, and that was that. no cool story like "i grew up next door to all of my band members and we frolicked through fields and became best friends! and one day we all decided we wanted to start a band and our rich daddies paid our way!" no. nothing like that.

cool story, bro. and what's it been like since joining?

"cool story, bro?" dude. fuck off. anyway, it's been abso-freaking-lutely fantastic since joining! now, we frolic through fields daily! that's where i get all of the inspiration for our song lyrics!

that's awesome. so, what do you do when you're not working?

when i'm not frolicking through fields? i have to stop saying that... frolic. frolic. frolic. frolic. frolic. frol- what the fuck am i saying? what does "frolic" mean? it sounds so fucking weird.

sweet, i like some of those, too! looks like we have some stuff in common.

i hate to be so blunt, but are you a fucking robot?

haha, you're cute. so tell me about yourself. what do you like?

i know i'm cute. that's why the girls are all over me. yeah, be jealous, punk. well, besides frolicking (which i've mentioned plenty of times already), i like long walks on the beach, romantic candlelit dinners, snuggling by a warm fire, romance novels, poetry. would you like me to keep going?

ooh, i like some of those, too! more mind-twin-age. well, what about the stuff you dislike?

it's called "telepathy," you dumb ass. oh, how appropriate that is! i dislike you. what now?

oh, some of those are just horrible.

hahahahahaha. i can't even...

so...this one's for all those secret admirers. what's your romantic past been like? and how is it now?

my romantic past? well, it's been a bunch of nameless girls doing the walk of shame after leaving my apartment. yeah. i'm a player. deal with it, man. now? it's harder to keep up now that i'm in a touring band. sleeping with fans is just plain wrong. you gotta have some morals.

haha, the fans will get a kick out of that. let's fuel that fire. what about things that you consider turn ons? turn offs?

i'm sure they will get a kick out of that. turn ons and turn offs? i don't like to be too picky...

wow, that's hot. [laughs] why don't you tell me more about yourself?

hot? i wouldn't necessarily use that choice of words... more about myself? would you like me to continue with my list of likes? because i'd be more than glad to. i like heart-shaped chocolates, flowers, love letters...

you seem like such an interesting person.

you seem like such a boring person.

now, last question. are there any deep, dark secrets you haven't told anyone?

yes! i've been waiting my entire life to share my deepest, darkest secret with some douche! yay! ready? here it is: i am actually a girl! hooray! <333333333

samantha elle hughes
TWENTY-TWO - RESIDENT - MANDY JIROUX

you're cute. what's your name?

me? well, my full name's samantha elle hughes.

that's a nice name, awfully long. do you have any nicknames?

mmhmm. loads. most of my friends call me sam. a rare few call me sami. i personally like sami better though... it's more feminine.

i agree. you seem more like a sami, anyway. tell me a little about yourself, darling.

i'm twenty-two years old, and i was born and raised in windsor, canada. i'm going to the university of michigan for college, and will graduate soon! i will be receiving my bachelors of science in chemistry in a couple of months.

canada? chemistry?

i am canadian if that's what you're asking. it's actually not that odd in detroit, seeing as how canada is just across the border. i could walk home to windsor from here! and as for the chemistry... what's so odd about that? ever since i was a little girl i've always been into all the cliche girly things: hair, makeup, etc. hair products and cosmetics always intrigued me, and i always wondered how they were made! a chemistry teacher i had in high school used to be a cosmetic chemist, and it interested me a lot! she always talked about the practical uses of chemistry and on and on, and once day, i decided that i wanted to be a cosmetic chemist! i'm lucky enough to have a job lined up for me for right after i graduate. i stayed really close with my teacher, and she knew loads of people in the field and got me in touch with them!

wow. that's incredible, and you're so young.

i know, i know. i still have lots of time for myself though!

and what do you do with that time?

i spend a lot of time with friends, going to local concerts, going to bars, you know, the stuff that twenty-somethings do.

do you have time for any significant others?

i do, but there's no one in my life right now. i kinda wish i had someone around though. it'd be nice to have someone to talk to every night, to go out with, you know, the relationship things.

now you said you're graduating college soon, how is it?

are you kidding me? it's fantastic! i have loved every minute of it so far.

would you ever redo it?

probably not. the past is the past, and that's where it will stay forever.

you seem like you have a good head on your shoulders.

i would have to agree! there's not a reason for me to have a bad head on my shoulders, now is there?

[laughs] that's true. you also seem very mature.

me? mature? i am when i have to be, like when i'm working. but most of the time i act just like a kid! i love having fun and playing games. it's the only way to keep life interesting!

what an interesting girl you are!

why, thank you! you seem pretty cool yourself!

you're too kind. have you stopped smiling at all during this interview?

probably not. you know, smiling releases endorphins!

"ALEXANDER CHASE CALLAHAN IS MY FULL NAME, AND I'M TWENTY-TWO YEARS OLD. NICE TO MEET YOU. WHAT WERE YOU ASKING? OH, RIGHT... MY NAME SURPRISINGLY DOES HAVE SOME SIGNIFICANCE. RIGHT BEFORE I WAS BORN, MY DAD'S YOUNGER BROTHER WAS KILLED IN A CAR ACCIDENT. MY PARENTS WERE ORIGINALLY GOING TO NAME ME JONATHAN, BUT I APPARENTLY I LOOKED EXACTLY LIKE MY UNCLE... EVEN THOUGH I WAS FRESH OUT OF THE WOMB. COOL STORY, RIGHT? AND MY PARENTS JUST LIKED THE SOUND OF MY MIDDLE NAME. AND THAT'S WHY I'M ALEXANDER CHASE. I GO BY ALEX THOUGH. I'M NOT TOO FOND OF PEOPLE CALLING ME OTHER VARIATIONS OF MY NAME. I ONLY LET A FEW PEOPLE CALL ME SOMETHING OTHER THAN ALEX. OCCASIONALLY I'LL LET MY BAND MATES GET AWAY WITH CALLING ME 'ALEXANDER,' BUT ONLY IF THEY HAVE A GOOD REASON OR IF I'M TOO OUT OF IT TO CARE. SPEAKING OF WHICH, I'M IN A BAND. I PLAY THE ACOUSTIC GUITAR AND AM ONE OF THE LEAD SINGERS FOR LIONS MAKE YOU BRAVE."[/size]


DESCRIBE YOUR CHARACTER'S PERSONALITY, CITING BOTH THE GOOD AND BAD. YOU MAY DO THIS IN FIRST PERSON INTERVIEW-STYLE BY YOUR CHARACTER OR IN THIRD PERSON.[/size]
"I'M PRETTY CHILL. I DON'T USUALLY GET MAD AT SOMEONE, UNLESS THEY'RE BEING A DICK. I CAN BE PRETTY SARCASTIC EVERY NOW AND THEN, BUT IT'S NOT TOO BAD. YOU CAN USUALLY FIGURE OUT WHETHER OR NOT I'M BEING SERIOUS. ALTHOUGH, I DO LIKE TO MESS AROUND WITH PEOPLE A LOT. I LIKE GIRLS. A LOT. I'M NOT CRAZY WITH THE HOOK UPS AND ONE NIGHT STANDS, BUT IT HAPPENS EVERY NOW AND THEN. THAT'S PROBABLY ONE OF MY BIGGEST WEAKNESSES... GIRLS. OH, AND SOMETIMES I GET A LITTLE TOO PASSIONATE ABOUT THINGS... LIKE SPORTS. AND GIRLS. OR, MAINLY ONE GIRL IN PARTICULAR. GOING ALONG WITH THAT, I'M PRETTY DEDICATED, AND I CAN GET A LITTLE STUBBORN FROM TIME TO TIME AS WELL. AND THAT DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK OUT TOO WELL FOR ME."[/size]

"I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN PORTLAND, OREGON. ACTUALLY, I LIVED IN A SUBURB OF PORTLAND. I'VE NEVER REALLY BEEN A CITY BOY, WHAT CAN I SAY? MY CHILDHOOD WAS PRETTY LAX. NO MAJOR, LIFE-CHANGING EVENTS OCCURRED. THANKFULLY. I GREW UP AS THE OLDEST OF THREE. I HAVE TWO YOUNGER SISTERS. I'M VERY OVERPROTECTIVE OF THEM. THE OLDER OF THE TWO TRIED TO HOOK UP WITH MY FRIENDS A WHILE BACK, AND LET'S JUST SAY THAT SHE NEVER TRIED THAT AGAIN ONCE I FOUND OUT. IF ANYTHING HAPPENED TO MY SISTERS, I HONESTLY THINK I WOULD BE DEVASTATED. CUTE, RIGHT? LIVING WITH MY SISTERS TAUGHT ME HOW TO TREAT A GIRL RIGHT. ALTHOUGH, I'M GUILTY OF NOT FOLLOWING THOSE RULES OCCASIONALLY.

"ABOUT FOUR-ISH YEARS AGO, A COUPLE PEOPLE AND I GOT TOGETHER AND FORMED A BAND. THAT'S HOW LIONS MAKE YOU BRAVE HAPPENED. AWHILE AFTER THE BAND FORMED, I DEVELOPED A BIT OF A CRUSH, I GUESS, ON THE OTHER LEAD SINGER, AVALON. AND AS THINGS WOULD HAPPEN, I SORT OF FELL IN LOVE WITH HER. WORDS CAN'T EVEN DESCRIBE HOW AMAZING SHE IS. I KNOW, I KNOW, CORNY. BUT THAT'S HOW I FEEL. I SOUND LIKE A PUSSY. COOL. ANYWAY, I'M PRETTY SURE SHE KNOWS HOW I FEEL ABOUT HER. AND SINCE NOTHING'S HAPPENED BETWEEN US, I GUESS I SHOULD TAKE THE HINT AND FIND SOMEONE ELSE, BUT IT'S HARD. I'M WITH HER ALL THE TIME, WORKING WITH HER, RECORDING WITH HER, PERFORMING WITH HER... YOU KNOW? OH. I GOTTA GO. THE GAME'S ABOUT TO START."[/size]
