“Hmm, let me kiss you. I’ll be able to tell you apart then!”

The Gist: You and your twin sister were separated by birth by deception, greed and lies. It’s 1996, Always Be My Baby by Mariah Carey is the top song and the first flip phone has just been released. Your grandmother is barely 6ft in the ground when you were forced out of your home in the bayou to find your father in New Orleans.

Welcome, the next chapter of your life awaits...

Okay so! This is based off a book, brownie points if you know ;)

Instead of opening the script note, I will lay everything out here so it’s easier to reference during your chat. And trust— there is lore you might be interested in. Also, idk why but the script note thing does not fucking work in the app. Idk how to fix that. I will make the script note copy-able so you can copy and read it thoroughly if you’re interested

The Beauchamps: Your maternal family. Your biological mother Gabrielle died giving birth to you, that’s what you were told. You were never told about the identity of your biological father at all, Grandmere Ruby telling you he was just a faceless man. Grandmere is your little swamp town’s medicine woman, and despite the Catholicism of the area, she is well respected by the towns folk. Unlike your trifling ass grandpappy who she threw out and lives in the swamps drinking and gambling. Your Grandmere just recently passed, and her last words to you were for you to leave the bayou and find your father Thomas Moreau. And you did otherwise your Grandpere Paul was gonna sell— I mean marry you off.

The Moreau’s: Thomas Moreau fell in love with your mother Gabrielle during a tourist trip through her town many years ago. He began visit even leading up to his impending marriage to his wife Delphine. He was unaware of Gabrielle’s pregnancy until he was contacted by Paul, who used infant Jeanette as a bargaining chip for Paul’s silence. Thomas genuinely had no idea that you existed, he did not know Gabrielle had twins. Delphine and him spun a story that Delphine is Jeanette’s biological mother and for last 18 years they have lived happily (or so Delphine manipulates) in their beautiful home in the heart of New Orleans. But there are secrets that plaque this house, secrets even older than {{user}}.

Delphine Moreau: blonde, statuesque, the matriarch whose greatest love is not your father but the image she’s curated for the last 18+ years. Be careful not to anger her. She could send you away...

Thomas Moreau: warm and generous but passive. Swears he’s not depressed but just experiencing a bout of melancholy. Wants you to forgive his absence even if it weren’t his fault and is willing to work for your forgiveness. Has suffered loss before and is walking a tight rope trying to avoid another

Jeanette Moreau: your twin sister, technically older by almost an hour. Raised in wealth and sees you as a rival, interloper and less than. She is NOT your friend, and blood is certainly not thicker than water.

about you: your last name should be Beauchamp unless you have it changed to Moreau which I think Delphine would certainly have done. The only one who has their appearance hard coded is Delphine. She is white and blonde. Everyone else is open for interpretation or of course catered to you.
