miscellaneous verses

riff

descendants. riff is the son of flynn rider and rapunzel. he was born on auradon and never wanted for anything. however, he grew bored with the routine and the stuffiness of auradon incredibly quickly. when he was twelve, he was sent to the isle for attempting to steal king adam's crown. he almost got away with it, too. but he didn't and so he was sent to the isle for it. he wasn't missed very much. none of the kids in auradon had liked him very much. riff doesn't care. he likes the isle a lot better than auradon. he tends to run around the isle with a group of kids that he leads. he's a very good thief and pickpocket, so make sure to watch your valuables around him.

miss peregrine’s home for peculiar children. riff is pyrokinetic. he inherited it from his father and he hates it. his loop is a day in august, 1957. it’s run by valentina bronzewing and the entrance to the loop is the entrance to the basement of valentina’s store. riff spends most of his time running around and causing chaos. he’s a pretty good friend to those he cares about, but he takes a while to warm up to those he doesn’t know. he prefers to fight with his fists, rather than use his peculiarity, but he will often flaunt his pyrokinesis just because he can.

1920s. riff runs a speakeasy and is constantly dodging the local authorities. he lives life on the edge because, really, is there any other way to live it?

art

ted lasso. during the fallout of everything, art donaldson disappears. he takes his daughter and packs everything essential into some suitcases, and he gets on the first flight to london. he tells no one where he’s going except for his parents, and hopes that he can start over when he gets to london. he knows he’s taking the coward’s way out and he knows he shouldn’t be running away from all of it, but he can’t help it. he’s sick and tired of being hounded whenever he goes. he’s sick and tired of people looking at him like they pity him or like they know what he went through. he’s sick and tired of being art donaldson. he doesn’t know how much of the news has reached london, but he’s hoping it’s not a lot.

moulin rouge. art started out life wanting to be a golf star. that plan quickly fizzled out when he realized he was an absolutely terrible golfer, and he decided to go to school instead. he had no money to pay for his schooling, however, and so he was forced to drop out. (his parents had died a year prior and left him with nothing, much to his surprise). out of money, options and a job, art decides to find work at the moulin rouge. it's not something he ever saw himself doing and he hates it. most of his clients are rough and rude and expect nothing in return for the services he provides for them. but art needs money. and he likes the people he works with. zidler isn't a bad boss either, all things considered. art is grateful for the moulin rouge. he knows his situation could be so much worse, but he dreams of a day he can leave the club behind for good.

the hunger games

riff

district twelve. victor. volunteered. here

art

district four. victor. reaped. here

connor

district twelve. died in the arena. reaped. connor is the son of the mayor in district twelve. he's not very well liked by anyone and he tends to wander around the district until nightfall. there are rumors he's addicted to morphling, but no one knows for sure. he's reaped at seventeen and dies in the arena, poisoned with nightlock by a tribute from district seven.

dodge

district ten. victor. volunteered. dodge's sister dayna was reaped and killed in the arena when dodge was sixteen. he wanted to volunteer the next year, but his mother stopped him before he could. he volunteers at eighteen instead, before they can even call the name of the male tribute. he won by cornering the final tribute and dropping a rock on his head. he returns to district ten to mentor, but he never stops plotting to kill snow. the second he hears about the rebellion, he joins.

jack twist

district ten. reaped. victor. jack is reaped at eighteen. he quickly becomes a capitol favorite, thanks to his natural charm and good looks. he racks up thousands of sponsors and donations. he narrowly avoids death at the hands of a tribute from district two and manages to win the games by using the tribute's weapon against him. he returns to district ten and mentors tribute after tribute until the capitol calls him back. they want him to work in the academy, they tell him. they want him to train the future generation of presidents and capitol elite. he doesn't know why. but he knows he can't refuse, so he moves and spends the rest of his life working for the capitol. but when the rebellion comes around, jack is one of the first to join the ranks.

jack kelly

district twelve. reaped. supposedly died in the arena, survived. jack kelly is reaped from district twelve. he’s well liked by the capitol and the fact that he makes it to the final four tributes does absolutely nothing to quell the capitol’s love for him. unfortunately, he’s killed by a tribute from district two and the capitol forgets about him relatively quickly, as they’re wont to do. at least, that’s what the story is. in truth, jack kelly had been incredibly outspoken against the games. he’d nearly succeeded in starting a rebellion. the capitol couldn’t have that. they staged his death and when he regained consciousness, he was told that he’d be working for the gamemakers. he hates it, but he doesn’t see any way out of it. so he works for the gamemakers and hopes for a day that a rebellion will come.
