on the noose around your neck |
[/div] To anyone who meets Dominic, she seems like a well put together girl. She may have hit a rough patch in her life a year back, loosing most of her money in New York City, but she has plans laid out for the future. Dom's always been the type to have a ten year plan, and if you don't fit in that, she won't have time for you. Though, Dom's never had as much spare time in her schedule as she does now. She likes to keep busy, and likes to have a ring of friends. Being born in Royal, she'd know many of the locals around here. Though she'd rather not admit to that fact. Dominic is a regular socialite, usually chatting up random strangers if the mood strikes her. She seems like any other regular girl, except the scars she hides on her hips.
In her passion to do well in life, Dom also has a passion that can turn quick to anger. Her attitude has ripped her away from her family, a cold group of people since her older brothers death. As likely as Dom is to have friends, she's likely to lose them just as fast. Dom's never been described as a bitch, but instead it seems she will lose all her interest in friendships at the turn of a leaf. Depression will do that, take interest from things you love. As an apparently normal, functioning, pretty citizen of Royal, Dom knows (and wants) others are envious of her. It's guaranteed, with a face like hers. Dom doesn't resent those who hate her, but instead relishes it. What's life without some good drama?
Love has never paid a dominant role in Dominic's life. She has had several boyfriends over the years, but they have seemed more like ornaments, means to buy her what she wished for. Her family was not in anyway poor, but she preferred to not spend her own money. She is capable of love, but that feeling has not graced her heart, especially not since Theo died when she was thirteen. A boyfriend is not something that would be odd of Dominic, she enjoys the company, but like friends, it would be common for her to lose interest fast. ------- i hope dearly i can get some lovely twisted plots with my dear broken dom [/td][/tr][/td][/tr][/table][/center]

dominic and garret , first of all i have to say something that will come across as juvenile, borderline immature, and frankly, quite selfish: dibs. why? because she's flawless and i feel she quite clearly would make a great companion with my lovely garrett.
So here is my idea of their background: There have only been a few times where Garrett has remained in Royal, although now it appears he is here to stay. Seeing as it is such a small town, i'd imagine that the two of them are quite familiar with one the others family. At any town events i see them exchanging polite smiles and nods to one another of acknowledgement. When she was five, he would have been ten, so before he left i imagine they knew each other through their families knowing the other but beyond that their relationship with each other extended as nothing further but family friends. Unfortunately, i doubt that Garrett would have come back for her brothers funeral. It would be something he would feel perplexed about in essence because i feel as if he would have bonded with her brother at some point in his life.
The first chance he got to return to Royal and pay his respects to the family, he'd see her, apologize for his absence at the funeral and carry on with his precarious life style at that particular time in his life. They both can be internally quite destructive to themselves and i see this as something that will latch them together in their more mature years as they have both returned to Royal.
Garrett is twenty-seven, while Dominic is but twenty-two but age wouldn't be a huge factor especially since they would know one another. I see them running into one another as they had something like tea. Maybe they'd decide to go to lunch with one another just for the goal to catch up on one the other's life. Being five years older than her, Garrett would probably want to act as a substitute for her older brother at first, being protective. He wouldn't realize how loyal he got to her. There is a scene in my mind where something happened, and she is upset, maybe even calls Garrett out of a strange impulse, and Garrett goes running to her to help her. At first there would be nothing but him wanting to help her especially since there was this under lining guilt he carried from not being there at the time of her brother's death.
I think at some point they'd get into a fight. I'm assuming that this fight would actually have something to do with her brother. Maybe Garrett would try to act like a therapist, attempting to shrink Dominic. After all he had taken some psychology classes while he was in school and as stubborn as he is he would think that it would be his place to lend his "expertise" to a girl who most likely will not need to hear it from him. He'd be his typically self and act too intrusive in her life.
In the midst of all of this, there would be a strange emotional barrier broken within him. Garrett has never known love to be anything but a work of fiction. But after their fight had escalated to a certain point, and after he had already stubbornly attempted to get more out of her, he'd find himself at the peek of it all and realize his desire to care for her reached more than something of him trying to help her as a brother-figure but that he'd actually be in love with her.
i feel like i already wrote way more in too much detail... but i feel like this plot could practically write itself. That's how i saw anything between them when i first found myself reading all of her information. feel free to change things up, maybe take out things that are a little too detailed, and add more, or scratch it completely if you have another suggestion or find that this is beyond what it needed to be.

dominic and garret , so, first, i must say you are perfect in everyway and i knew that these two would get along so well and perfectly in plots.
i can see everything being very polite and formal between the two of them, when he came to pay his respects, and in any other interactions. just because they are both very good at hiding their problems. dom would view Garrett as nothing more than an acquaintance, but she would easily go out with him to coffee. following the rules of society and all that. and then gosh garrett acting all protective over her and feeling guilty over not being there after her brothers death he is so cute
i don't have a lot to say unfortunately. except she would definitely not like him trying to shrink her, as said. she's had professionals trying to do that to her already. it's hard to say if she'd reciprocate his feelings, i feel like for a very long time this would be very one sided for garrett. he'd try to get her to open up to him, and she'd just close down more on him, shoving him out of her life. i think only time would tell if she'd fall in love with him, especially with the close relationship she'd form between garrett and theo in her mind.
the only thing i'm confused about is time line, obviously this happens over a stretch of time and meetings and such, you just made it sound like it all happened in one evening ^^; otherwise it is perfection.

dominic and garret , for time line, i feel like it would most likely begin with them randomly meeting up at coffee to catch up. When he found out she was in Royal he'd invite her and be waiting there for her with the two coffees for them to converse for a bit. But the entire thing would extend into probably at least three different threads i'd imagine. The coffee would potentially be the most dull of them, thus a very short thread of them catching up and him deciding to cut it short out of awkwardness. Then i'd see her reaching to him for something in the next thread, him helping her and it playing however it would and then in a following thread they'd get into a fight. Maybe even cut their fight into two threads if it needs to unless it flows better as one... whenever he'd say he loved her. then it would carry on as such.
i definitely think that it would be fairly one sided. Garrett is very intense and tends to throw himself into these situations way before it is appropriate to do such. After he told her he was in love with her, he'd probably say nothing of it and continue with whatever friendship they had until maybe he got really worked up again... maybe was a little too forward and kissed her without warning. I don't know how exactly she would react to this, but i imagine with the one sided relationship afterwards he'd feel terrible for doing such a thing to her when he would be certain that there were no reciprocated feelings.
it would certainly be a very heart breaking plot on Garrett's side as he tries to fight his open affection toward her.

dominic and garret , okay yeah that makes more sense. i can see them getting into semi deep conversations too, rarely, or beating around the bush kind of thing, but later on. i feel like right now, she'd never love him, just cause it seems most likely, but we can see where that goes. she might be a little affected by his passion, but she's no girl to be swept of her feet and this in fact would make her more grounded in being simply his friend. there could be so much going on in the background with these two.
but a thread is needed asap asdsdfgfd

dominic and garret , YES. They must thread as soon as they possibly can do such!
But i feel like there should be a lot of stuff going on around them as well because it would help so much more with their plot as well. I feel like Dominic would be the one with a little more going on in a sense where she'd be surrounded by a larger circle of people. Maybe someone else who seeks her for a love interest outside of Garrett but isn't nearly as obsessive or "passionate" as Garrett lets himself be. I think it would also be a good thing for Garrett, in his own personal realm, to explore his gambling issues as well as his drinking issues while everything is going on.

dominic and garret , ah yes yes. dom's definitely the type to have a lot going on, just with friends and other drama's on top of this (and thus more likely to go off on garrett, especially since she hasn't been taking her pills for a few years now). and another love interest definitely, someone not as intense as garrett, probably more sweet, something she'd usually go for because its easy, doesn't cause conflict. which is odd, cause usually dom would go for the conflict, which could be why she keeps coming back for garrett.

dominic and garret , i really like the idea of how she just keeps coming back to him because that's something that would probably drive Garrett wild and push him farther into his own darkness until he just eventually snaps. I think that there is a pretty great foundation of how this can be played out. We just (maybe) need someone else who could play a part of being a third party in one of their threads, potentially?
