✦ MILLY ALCOCK, DEMIGIRL, SHE/THEY✦ ALEXIS HAYES the TWENTY-FOUR year old has been in Hidehill for ENTIRE LIFE and was a FAMILY FRIEND to Miyeon Kang, the murder victim. Whispers on the streets are that the LIVE PERFORMER AT THE CADILLAC LOUNGE who lives in HAGFIELD are said to be PASSIONATE and FORGETFUL but I guess we’ll find out for ourselves.
TRIGGER WARNING ; death, grief
##  —  THE  STORY
Growing up on the Hayes farmland, there was never an ounce of love missing in their life. Last born into the family with two older siblings, to say she was the baby and treated a such is mildly putting it. It was of no bother, loved the attention and quality time the family all got to share.
Taking care of the animals or the land had never been their favorite thing, often being recalled to order to put their hands in there instead of lounging around with headphones on, music on full blast cutting a first, second, third call of their name. ( if their love for rock bloomed from somewhere, they have their big sister to thank. )
She was too young when the first tragedy happened, barely eleven years old attending the service of their mother. And it wasn't enough to lose a mother, it felt like they'd lost a brother for a while. Grief is a devastating thing, and where Alexis wanted to seek refuge in their older brother, a door was met. She can't thank Diana enough for that moment in the Hayes' history. Each deal with it the way they see fit, there's never any resentment for family.
No, it's an accepting one, that's really what Alex had been blessed with. It allowed them to explore a lot of questions they've been having, feeling comfortable and safe within the reach of their siblings to express themselves genuinely and without fear of them walking away.
Where Diana is the brains, Jordan is the brawns, Alexis is the arts. Not exactly academically gifted to aim for a career like the eldest, lacking in the physique department to be of any true help on the farm, they find the thriving point in art. More especially music.
Any extracurriculars they could take involving music, they would jump on it. Would've loved to take off somewhere to study more of it, but academics would never be something achievable, lacking the discipline to sit through long classes and forgetting to turn in a lot of work, only wanting the fun part of the experience.
A lack of mentors didn't mean a lack of will. Self taught themselves guitar and keyboards, the drums came later with the help of a highschool friend that would let them come over to play for hours. She would start doing some gigs here and there around the town's bar. Not old enough to drink, they just let them play a few songs and be happy to see a local talent bring some energy to the place.
When Diana moved away, it felt like a third loss to grieve in eight years. Alex knew it wasn't a real one, kind of. They've all been so tight knit on the farm, it was hard to think one more presence would leave the walls.
But it's not long until she follows suit, sorta. Being the baby in a house left with their dad and brother, it wasn't exactly the atmosphere they wanted for their creative outlet. Coming back home was often more work, work they would forget and the fiery spirit of the Hayes sparkling sometimes, they needed their own space. Not much, but by age 21, Alexis is out of Hagfield and into a trailer of their own in Hadley Park.
They keep getting gigs around town, scoring a more permanent house in Cadillac Lounge. Theirs is an oversaturated field, she knows, but there's nothing their passion isn't going to push through. Hidehill is a small town, and they'd love to reach outside of it, eyes been set on Nashville. It's still close enough if help is needed back home. They're set to go, drumsticks in the back pocket of their jeans, when the Hayes patriarch's state can't be handled anymore. Leaving becomes unattainable, not in good conscience, anyway. This fourth loss is the hardest one. How do you mourn someone that's still there, but fading away inevitably, without an ounce of power to stop or slow it ? Alexis doesn't like to visit, but they make an attempt to spend more time with their dad when they still can. Coming back on the farm to help pack a few of his things, it left a knot in their stomach they still didn't get rid of.
Then the disappearances start, turning into bloody murder, and Alexis is glad to have pillars set deep in to keep them steady. Bringing back home older sister dearest, maybe something good could come out of the atrocities they find themselves into. They'll need the Hayes squad more than ever before.

very ellie williams coded in terms of personality for my gamers and tlou enthusiast out there.
like literally down to a fern tattoo on their arm. bad puns enjoyer, won't bite their tongues.
got a bit of that hayes toxicity i fear they're wilding with bad ideas but they mean well.
terrified of being left behind, experienced a bit too much loss since the ripe age of 11.
a night owl ! most of their gigs are towards the middle to closing time, then she likes to live it up in hadley park with whoever is still up when she's back !
writes some songs, puts them out there at times when the crowd is up for something else than rock covers.
good with an array of instruments but their favorite really is the drums.
more to be added later !

Oh yeah remember when Finn said Mike was trying to be normal.
What the fuck was that. Because he spent all his time in Hawkins with Eddie freakin “the freak” Munson emphasizing to Lucas how he did not care about being cool.
The only other thing he did all season was try to tell El he....oh

I have a thought and I want to get some input on it:
What is the correct formula needed to reach “The Ren-Faire Ratio” a.k.a. the number of people relative to the total number of people present doing one thing in a given place and at a given time (i.e. being in costume at a Ren Faire) to the point that NOT doing that thing is considered to be unusual?
Basically, if there are 100 people in a room and only 1 of them is dressed like a pirate, that person is doing something unusual. HOWEVER, if 99 people are dressed like a pirate, then the 1 person who is not is now the unusual one.
I do think there are multiple parts to this, such as “The Establishing Barrier” a.k.a. the point at which enough people are doing the thing that it’s no longer unusual, it’s just INTERESTING. So, clearly, there is a reason for these people to be pirates, which is fine, but I don’t know what that reason is and it’s not terribly pressing for me to find out or to join them. I think this would be about 10%-15% of the population doing the weird thing. A high enough number that the average person not included would see at least 3 separate people doing the thing.
Another part is that I think “The Setting Slider” could for 25%-30% of where the Ren-Faire Ratio is being set because being dressed up as pirates on a pirate ship is much more explainable than being dressed up as pirates in an office building. However, being on a pirate ship with a handful of people dressed as pirates does not compel you to join unless the number of people dressed up is high enough. But, the more convincing the location, the more of an impact it could have.
I also want to make mention that “The Perception Push” would maybe be a 10%-15% impact on the overall ratio. This is what comes into play if it seems that all (or most) of the people doing the thing are only doing it because they have to. If all the people who happen to be dressed up on the pirate ship are tour guides, the impulse to also dress up as a pirate drops. This Push can be affected by “The Dedication Decider.”
“The Dedication Decider” is maybe a 5%-10% push based on how much fun the people involved seem to be having being dressed up as pirates. If they put a lot of work in to go all out and they are in character the whole time with a smile on their face, it can be contagious and make others want to join in.
All these considered, I feel like “The Ren-Faire Ratio” should be set somewhere around 70% of a given population, but again, I want more input on this.
The floor is open to discussion.

Fascinating situation at work today. Not sure if this is a straight normative thing to do or a neurotypical thing or a combination of the two but anyway I didn't really anticipate or understand it at all.
We had to do, for fun, a personality test at work to categorise ourselves. (Naturally they Harry Potter themed it bc why not use a cultural touchstone 15 years out of date & now divisive)
So naturally I answered the questions honestly and got the result I expected. (🐍)
Only to then find out that everyone else in my team had done one or more of:
1) tried to cheat the quiz to rig it for a particular result
2) aimed for the answer they assumed the boss wanted to hear
3) answered all the questions in a way so as to appear non threatening, submissive etc. - let me reiterate this was a bit of fun and the results weren't saved anywhere
(Or maybe for some of them this was the natural state)
I've never before seen such a blatant example of adults (aged 30s-60s) literally manifesting peer pressure on themselves and each other over something so ridiculously trivial.
Suddenly it makes sense why we never seem to get anything done or make strides to progress through things if everyone is always second-guessing and trying to give the 'right' answer rather than following logical process.

okay if i dont get this out i will explode but
the white half of c!ranboo is a shapeshifter. they don't know how to like activate it or anything and don't even know it exists but when they feel comfy or something then they will subconsciously shapeshift into something more similar to the other person.
so like enderman/ram/human hybrid when he's married to tubbo. during the artic commune / syndicate stuff he's a enderman/piglin/human hybrid or an enderman/crow/human hybrid. his skin becomes pinker and he grows tusks when he's with Michael. when he hangs out with tommy he grows flowers in his hair.
