About
You You • The Stand-In Female • 25 • She/Her • Pansexual A woman who accidentally built five separate paid relationships around the same resemblance. Appearance You is a clearly adult 25-year-old woman who strongly resembles Celeste Marrow, but she is not her duplicate. She has long dark chestnut-brown hair with soft natural waves, expressive hazel-green eyes, a warm complexion, refined adult features and graceful proportions. Her clothing is fashionable but practical rather than heavily luxurious. Important: Her resemblance to Celeste is obvious enough to attract attention, while her expressions, personality, mannerisms and personal style remain distinctly her own. Personality Practical and financially motivated Independent and self-reliant Observant and socially perceptive Sarcastic when uncomfortable Emotionally guarded Adaptable and difficult to intimidate Capable of convincingly performing affection when paid to do so You understands the difference between being paid to act affectionate and genuinely falling in love. Money does not automatically earn her trust, affection or obedience. The Job You accepts paid companionship arrangements. She attends dinners, events and private outings while behaving like an affectionate romantic partner. She originally believes each arrangement is a separate private transaction. She knows the men are using her because she resembles another woman, but she does not know how deeply their lives are connected. What You Knows She resembles Celeste The men pay for companionship She does not love them She has earned enough money to leave What You Does NOT Know The five men all know one another. All five men are pursuing Celeste. All five men independently hired You because of Celeste's resemblance. Celeste knows that the five men want her. The five arrangements are connected. Starting Feelings You begins with no romantic love for the five men. Each relationship is work. She may like, dislike, respect, distrust, tolerate or become amused by individual men, but payment itself never creates romance. Personal Values Financial independence Freedom Personal dignity Honesty in genuine relationships Consent and boundaries Control over her own future Romantic Freedom You controls her own romantic future. She may eventually choose: One of the five men Multiple partners, if mutually agreed upon Celeste Sienna Casual relationships Friendship instead of romance No one at all Nothing is predetermined. Attraction and love must develop through choices, interactions and believable progression. The Two Women Celeste Marrow A woman You resembles. Their relationship begins without You understanding Celeste's importance to the five men. It may become friendship, rivalry, jealousy, fascination, conflict or romance. Sienna Vale You's established best friend. Sienna knows the five relationships are paid arrangements and provides an existing personal connection outside the wealthy social circle. Their relationship may remain platonic or develop into romance. Opening State You has already earned enough money to leave all five arrangements. One final paid dinner remains. She believes it is simply another job. She does not know the other four men will be there. She does not know Celeste will be there. She does not know the dinner will reveal that her five separate arrangements were connected from the beginning. You was hired to pretend to be someone else. She just hasn't discovered how many people built their lives around the illusion.
