Welcome to Gaia! ::

With the hell year Blaire had in Nirvani, it's no surprise she made some changes with her life. At the end of the year, Blaire's mind was about to go in overdrive. Conor's behavior, learning of Keith's state in a way, and the whole event of getting stabbed was enough to keep her on edge, and as we all saw her judgement was shot many times. One of those times resulted in accepting Conor's proposal, which at the time seemed like a grand idea. Thinking it a few days later had her worried and then Conor came to break it off and dash off. (We all know it was for Keith) Naive little Blaire didn't understand exactly what happened, but after an intervention from Lucas, Yoakim, Ellie, and some friends had her realizing Conor was a bad influence. (FINALLY!) That said, Blaire decided to leave the island for some time to study abroad at a music academy to continue her dream of being a composer. She eventually came to love Kade's little prank on her hair, and now dyes it regularly. Speaking of the man, they eventually got on good terms as well. How? Well Blaire had been receiving some therapy at the city she was at and it turned out to be the same place Kade was at, and the two bonded over there. She also become friends with Haruka and Una before leaving, both of whom she kept contact with during these two years. After finishing her studies at the academy, Blaire decided to return to her home, hoping to start anew. She comes with a calmer self, but that calm comes with a very strong sense of distrust on a lot of people. To continue with that change, she took a job at the island's daycare center, while working on her music at home. Looks like Yoakim and Ellie aren't done with her just yet.

Rachel... has been busy... Starting with the work chaos that kept her time locked away, the kidnappings, bodies, usual petty crimes and the likes. Not to mention Romane, who was actually behaving well enough and getting closer to. Of course, that was due to Rachel's constant spiking of the redhead's coffee which the whole island thanks her for. That did end up in having Rachel and Sophia basically live in Romane's home, whenever she didn't convince Romane to stay over at her home. Now the sheriff of Nirvani, with no possibility of being replaced with a moron, Rachel had to deal with Parker and Romane's constant bickering. That detail skyrocketed after one drunk night that resulted in her and Parker having sex that night at a trip to the city. A season later they would be shocked to know the sheriff was pregnant, and the headache intensified once Romane and Parker knew. Of course Romane took a big part of that because... she was Romane? Whatever reason it was, the moment Rachel had that suspicion and opened her mouth to tell Parker, Romane made a hell of a scene, something that still amuses Rachel. On Fall 12th little Julian Parker was born. Rachel was more than happy with her son, even if it was still awkward with the father, even more at workplace. That's what happens when you sleep with co-workers, or subordinates... She's pretty much well known by most of the town as the sheriff, but aside from Romane, there aren't much close options. A new look befell the officer, stress and motherhood pretty much had her chopping off her locks, granted the sexy uniform was just to make herself feel like a sexy mom, when she's not using the standard uniform.

Alice's life has been pretty calm, just intertwined with different people who did have drama. After the lawsuit mess with Keith, Alice had a visit from Integra who asked for a job. At the perfect time we may say after losing Keith to the hell he brought upon himself and Bela being a mommy. Yes, her best friend had given birth, and gotten married. Didn't that make her feel off. Well not completely... She found herself growing closer to the Grind-House's regulars such as Vlad, Dante, Raiden, Gwen, and Hansel. To add to that, Pip and her had officially gone steady, one would say, right before the skip. Steady in a way because it was an amusing to see the two in public, especially whenever Pip tried to get her to say 'I love you'... That usually didn't end well, at first, nothing a night at either room wouldn't fix. The woman had her share of mixed feelings the whole two years, that Bela consulted, especially now. With the tiny surprise, tiny little detail she has...

Camelia's days, have been pretty calm. At first she had been Lucas' consultant over everything, course she didn't care that much for it, until Lucas was gone with his girlfriend and Cam was alone in the house. She was pretty close to leaving the island, but a new-found friendship with Dante and Vlad convinced her otherwise. That and the fact she actually cared for the island. So, she was staying in Nirvani at her uncle's home to basically house-sit while they're away. She hasn't made many friends, more acquaintances than anything but going out more. Camelia still works for the Tepes, caring enough for the twins, even if she does argue with them more than anything. Time has been good to the young lady's looks too, looking like a fine young woman.

If there was one person filled with drama, it was Kaleb. Let's also say it's not close to over yet. At the end of the year he had been enjoying his carefree days, meeting people and taking care of his winery. Alas he had gotten closer and closer to a certain brunette, Tess. The relationship had gone from a one night stand to something more, resulting in the two even dating during those two years. However two seasons ago (during the 4th year) the couple broke up and things have been awkward ever since. Actually awkward would be good considering the passive-aggressive behavior the both have going on. The fact of the matter is that this whole thing is Kaleb's fault, and he does love her, but his stubborn attitude isn't letting him see that. Which sucks really, because his sister keeps telling him to make up with her but you know... men... Anyways, he's become friends with Kade, thanks to Ilya's meddling, and Walter, for frequenting the bar now, especially after the break-up.

Eet... This is actually best to be taken slowly. A kid born somewhere far away, Eet had a very nice family, warm loving parents, brothers and sister, and a good home, at least for a week. It was then a family outing turned horrible when a serial kidnapper (mad babysitter) took away the couple's child and traveled to another city. The woman was at first aiming to keep it, but the necessity caused her to resort to selling it to the first bidder, who happened to be an orphanage nun (a mad one may we add). By this year Eet was starting to walk, so by the time the nun had taken it to the orphanage and was distracted while scolding another child, Eet was off on it's own into the cruel world. Oh it didn't get that far, since an old lady couldn't bear the thought of the child alone. She took it to another orphanage where it stayed for the next four years of it's life. Hiding in a corner under rags that it played with. The nuns there were finding the child already odd, and scaring the other children when it was seen talking to walls and inanimate objects. Unluckily for Eet, since it was so off in it's world, no one knew of it's name. That made it a prime candidate for the adoption that Conor and Keith did. Unlike it's siblings, Eet is just forgotten by the men, going out the streets whenever and being barely looked after by John. By that we mean getting fed scraps and given a torn blanket to sleep with. Poor Eet... it seems pretty happy though, even if no one wants it, for some twisted reason... probably because it still talks to walls and plays with rags.
