»»» BACKGROUND: A few years after having their first child, Courtney and Ethan Mills were delighted to discover they were going to have twins! They apparently didn't have the discussion about what names wouldn't get their kids beaten up on the playground. Millie Mills. What the ********, Courtney and Ethan? Alex' birthname was even worse somehow. Other than that, however, Lee's childhood was fairly standard. School, friends, she and her siblings got along, they fought sometimes. A normal, apple-pie life, to be honest. Upon reaching the tail end of her time in high school, though, she found everyone applying to colleges and programs that would eventually lead them to their dream jobs or whatever, and Millie somehow fell behind. It was as if everyone was becoming butterflies but she still didn't know how to make a cocoon in the first place.
Lee wound up doing time in a community college, collecting some general education credits and hoping those extra two years would give her some clue as to what she wanted to do with her life, but... they didn't. So, instead of applying for another year of college, she dropped school and got a job. The young Lee was amazing in the cow mascot costume at some chicken restaurant, but... surprisingly enough, it wasn't her calling. The woman went through more jobs than she did socks, sometimes working two or three at a time. The lengths of her employment varied from weeks to years. She worked in offices, kitchens, warehouses, stores... Her resume was like a box of chocolate: there was a bit of everything, some was amazing, but some just left a bad taste in one's mouth and left them reaching for a glass of whatever to get it out. In the end, she realized she didn't have a calling. So, she quit all of her jobs and started her life as a professional cuddler. Cuddling wasn't her calling, either, but it was a fairly simple job that paid fifty bucks an hour. The money was nice enough that she was a millennial who could afford a two-bedroom apartment on her own. Granted, it was in the basement of a complex in a not-great part of town... but she took the win.
... yeah. That definitely should've been a sign of the end of times.
███████ SKILLS
»»» CUDDLING/MASSAGE: As a professional cuddler, it's probably a good thing she's mastered cuddling. She picked up how to use touch and pressure to massage in order to help nervous clients relax before a session.
»»» SPATIAL AWARENESS: Lee has an excellent sense of direction, and she is boss at Tetris.
»»» NOT GETTING BITTEN: She used to work in a vet's office, and though she was officially a receptionist, it was her aunt's clinic, so she was low-key allowed to help as an unofficial vet tech when they were understaffed. Not getting bitten kind of comes with the territory of working with animals.
»»» FIRST-AID: Lee has no official training in this, but having worked and odd combination of jobs throughout her life thus far, she's picked up a few tricks here and there seeing all manner of accidents happen.
»»» RANDOM-a** s**t: Wikipedia. YouTube. The internet is a massive source of information, and Lee is prone to falling into rabbit holes. Did you know potatoes can scream?
███████ EXTRA
»»» ROMANCE: Yee!
»»» THEME: One by One - Patty Gurdy
»»» ANYTHING ELSE: She is easily distracted by cats. She'll get inconsolably depressed if she sees one she can't help (if they are dead or injured).
