fallon xiao was like anyone else living in the greater los angeles area: a normal person waiting for their chance to become extraordinary. she had big dreams of becoming a musician, going on tours, and becoming extremely famous. of course, most days these dreams just felt like a meek overshot, but that was never enough to make her give up. she had a vision and no one would be getting in the way of that. after a particularly sour break up with one of the most popular guys in school, fallon learned some hard lessons. she knew there could no longer be any distractions. there could be no one getting in her way and deterring her from what she really wanted. paxton was never looking for a relationship, just the next person to make him a little less lonely for a dwindling amount of time. he had never thought of himself as a boyfriend, rather a pit stop. he was never looking for someone to call his girlfriend. however, once seated next to a girl during a second attempt at his facing history class, everything changed. the only problem would be figuring out how to care for each other when neither thought it would ever be a possibility.
jo vanderbilt had never been good with change. she was most comfortable when everything was just-so, and she could live with the routine she always had. she was at her best when she had the same friends, the same schedule, and the same home life. however, lately, everything around her had been changing. her parents separated, sending her mom on a job in a foreign land and her dad to los angeles for the simple reason of getting away from her. her house, which had once been filled with laughter and her mother's homemade pho, now suffocated itself in silence. though the biggest change of all in her life wasn't an event, it was a person: spencer james. he brought forth a world jo had never been in before, and while it scared her, it also allowed her a new perspective. a perspective that led to her feelings for jordan baker. he had always been a constant in her life. they had been best friends since kindergarten, and she had never thought to see him any other way. but seeming that nothing could stay the same for the unlucky girl, it made sense that her feelings for the boy morphed into something she never thought possible.
charlotte zhao had never really given much thought to performing. besides a quick solo or two in the shower, singing wasn't something that plagued her mind. until rachel berry heard her singing at her job, and practically dragged her into the choir room. it was there that she officially met finn hudson. she had heard of him, even had him in a few classes over the years, but she had never noticed him until now. unfortunately for charlotte, finn had a girlfriend, and maybe even more unfortunately, she had a boyfriend. she didn't plan on falling for the adorably naive quarterback, but you never can plan on these things. she was stuck between a rock and a hard place, but unlike that guy from the book, she wouldn't be sawing off her arm just yet.
adam banks: senior, varsity hockey star, and the most popular boy in school. a lot about eden had changed since their freshman year. the ducks, while humble in nature, had morphed into something unrecognizable. they went from freshman underdogs to varsity kings, and in all that they lost themselves. eliza tao: senior, theatre department president, and generally liked among the masses. one night, during a required viewing of eden's fall musical: little women (in which she played the lead), a few of the ducks begin to discuss the girl. before too long, adam's agreeing to something he never thought he would: a bet. if he can get eliza to get in bed with him, charlie will give him his first line center position on the ice. the deal was too hard to ignore. and so were his unlikely feelings for the girl her knew nothing about.
pacey jeong, named after the beloved dawson's creek character (much to her dismay), was a resident member of east high's theatre department. she was an officer at only a junior level, and was involved in every show possible. so no one was as surprised as she to see a new face. especially when that face was ricky bowen. they had shared a class over the last few years of high school, and feeling like she knew him at least a little, she was shocked to hear that he was auditioning for high school musical. until his true intentions were revealed: he wanted to get back with his ex. at least, he thought he did. until pacey became the only thing he could think of. from there on, it was a complete mess.
delainey 'laine' miller had never felt this way before. especially for her least favorite burnout. she had never thought of daniel desario as someone she could be with. he was arrogant, lazy, and maybe worst of all, he had a smile that no one could resist. still, she never thought for a second that she would find herself falling for him. however, for daniel it was a completely different story. he tried to hide it as best he could, but there was only so much his friends could remain oblivious to. the only one who never seemed to notice his infatuation, was laine. and maybe that was what made her all the more irresistible: the fact that she was arguably the only girl who wouldn't fall for his tricks.
saint shingaki had been living with her uncle ever since her parents had died in okinawa. as a little five year old, she was sent on a plane all the way to america. and ever since, she's just been going through the motions. sure, she loves her uncle, and america was alright enough. she just couldn't get rid of the tugging feeling in her chest that something was missing. it was a pain that hadn't gone away since she left okinawa. she doesn't think there's any benefits to living in california. until she meets a new boy all the way from the east coast. he makes her finally feel like there's something worth wanting. it's a great feeling for her. she just can't tell if he feels the same.

jordan zheng never believed in ghosts. she considered herself a woman of science and never thought anything would change her mind. until she stumbles upon the unexplainable. all she wanted to do was practice a monologue in julie's studio, but fate had other ideas for her. when three boys appear out of thin air right in front of the girls, she's obviously perplexed. but luke is just as confused as the poor girl. because she looks exactly like an old flame of his. and not only that, but she can both see and touch him. something no living person can do (other than julie, and even she can't touch them). it's clear they have some sort of connection. and if jordan would choose to acknowledge his existence, maybe they could figure it out together.
lacey tran: the miracle on ice. or, as gordon bombay liked to call her, 'the best of the worst'. she only joined the peewee hockey team in order to get close to a certain curly headed blonde boy, who needn't be mentioned. but when bombay shows up, he sees some potential in her. he knows she could be one of the greats, but she's simply not interested in learning. the only thing she wants to learn is how to make a boy fall in love with you. she hasn't quite figured out the logistics of that one, yet. but she's trying. boy, is she trying. and the only one who can't seem to notice her blatant, and sometimes less blatant, affection, is the object of it.[d1-d3]
sawyer nguyen: eden hall's one and only female varsity player. she had skipped the sixth grade, making her a sophomore at the age of a freshman. this was her second year on varsity, and she had learned that if she just kept her head down, she could avoid the trouble. she hated their attitudes and their superiority complex, but she didn't have a choice when it came to being on the team. she was on scholarship, and if she wasn't on varsity, she would lose everything she had been working for. but, when adam banks comes along, she thinks maybe this year won't be so bad. with another person her age on the team, with similar morals, it might just be the change she's been looking for. adam hated that he had been put on varsity, but he knew his dad would kill him if he passed up this opportunity. and when he met sawyer, his whole attitude towards the team changed. it was still pretty bad, but she might just be the silver lining he was looking for.
[currently on hold]danica chen remembers the ducks fondly. they were a huge part of her life for a long time. she was there before they even got the name 'ducks'. back when it was just a team of kids with magazines as knee pads, who went by 'district five'. but after their winning season with gordon bombay, she was promptly moved to new york to live with her father, after accepting a broadway role in the secret garden. she was left with only memories of her old friends, and continued to play hockey in whatever free time she had left, getting better and better each year. still, she wasn't expecting to get an invitation to join team usa, and get the chance to play with her former duckies. she's ecstatic about the whole thing, especially after she realizes she might just rekindle an old flame with the one and only, charlie conway. [d2-d3][modern day]

all delainey 'laine' harris-tran wanted was to help people. plain and simple. she knew what it felt like to have the whole world fall around her and wanted to do her best to prevent it from happening to others. that's how she got into the fbi's behavioral analysis unit. well, that and her absolute savvy for all things pertaining to behavior. she had good instincts, people skills, and she could read others like a book. she accredited these skills to being trained in acting from the age of five. she even went to a performing arts school, but when her little brother and sister were murdered, she knew she needed to make a change in career paths. she would make a great new edition. except she's a little distracting. it's not her fault. it's not her fault that spencer reid was immediately drawn to her. he wasn't sure why. he'd never felt like this before and he wished it would go away. and it did, sometimes. but as soon as he thought of laine...it flushed right back into his system. laine's attraction wasn't as immediate. or as confusing. but when she finally realized her feelings, she knew it would take a lot to stay professional. boundaries are something she had promised herself she would comply with. but maybe that's not what either of them needed. maybe all they needed was someone to love.[season one-?]
DISCONTINUED stevie flynn was a carefree teen, only interested in community theatre and her friends. she barely tried in school. the only thing she could really be seen trying at was whatever show she was in at the moment. she refused to do william mckinley theatre claiming it was, "utter shit", and shut down the possibility with those few words. that also applied to ever other extra curricular at mckinley high. that is until one her best friends, finn hudson, joins the glee club. he tries to get her to join, and thinks he might wear her down enough to finally be a part of it. but will stevie be able to handle the reputation change and the inevitable drop in her social status?
tragedy strikes the new team usa, when their number one enemy joins. her name is slater pendland: captain of the infamous team, the hawks. she's immediately disliked by everyone. well, almost everyone. the only people she can seem to catch a break with are adam banks and guy germaine. adam had always had a soft spot for her considering he liked her for years, but never found the courage to say anything. he always assumed she had better options. little did he know, she had felt the same. as soon as guy sees her, he knows there's something different about her. they were no longer the ten year olds who tripped each other on the ice, or put gum in each other's hair. they had changed, and he really wanted to get to know her.
scarlett gilinsky just played hockey. plain and simple. that was all she thought she would be doing when she was picked to be a member of team usa. but as fate would have it, playing hockey would never just be playing hockey. feelings are involved and when that happens, things get messy.
