Synopsis
This is the story of a boy who falls in love with a girl and the adventure he goes through to try to get her. Our main character Tristan is a weak willed individual who would never normally end up with the girl, Leanne, as she is from a much trendier group. After a few failed attempts at trying to get her to fall for him, there is one last confrontation where it seems like everything will wrap up nicely and the boy will get the girl, but instead he messes up again and loses her in a comical way.
Character Descriptions
TRISTAN: Average height, below average build. Messy dark medium length hair. Dark clothing; little or no colour. Tristan displays very little confidence. He often second guesses and doubts himself. He puts little care into his physical look. He is not very outgoing, so he clings to the only friend he seems to have.
PETER: Average height, average build. Clean cut hairstyle and clothing. Trendy clothing; tends to wear long sleeve tee shirts and graphic prints. Peter is a very confident young man. He is a man of action, and likes to jump into things without putting any real thought into the outcome. His heart is often in the right place but he tends to cause more harm than good with his antics. A bit of a jock.
LEANNE: The girl next door. Beautiful girl with lush flowing hair. Trendy clothing; tends to wear bright colours and busy patterns. Leanne has a very fun loving and bubbly personality. She is very free spirited; always looking for fun, and always ready to help someone in need. A very selfless person.
MEG and KATE: So similar they could be twins. The two are attractive and very similar. The duo tends to wear fairly similar trendy outfits of a darker tone than Leanne. Not afraid to have a bit of black or darker tones on their shirts. Very quick to judge, the two play off each other, capable of finishing the other's sentences without notice. They are nice to those they trust, but earning their trust can prove to be difficult. They could very well be the same person.
SLAWTON (professor 1): Slawton has the look of a true professor. He has fading hair colour and wears a tweed jacket with elbow patches. Slawton talks very firmly and clearly takes great pride in his work at the school. He is very stern with his students as he expects hard work from them and nothing less. Willing to help a student that's willing to help him/herself.
DENNY (professor 2): Denny has a much less stern look to him than Slawton. He is short and pudgy and although he also wears a sports jacket, it is much less spiffy than Slawton's, usually a dull grey. His jackets also rarely seem to fit properly as though he bought them at Goodwill, or perhaps used to wear them before he used to wear the weight. Denny doesn't seem to take the same pride in his job as Slawton, he speaks in a monotonous tone, never trying to speak over top of students, or go back for clarification. He merely reads his prepared lesson and leaves, whether or not the students cling to his words is their own problem.
HELGA (Lunch Lady): Helga's face seems faded by some sort of sickness or lack of nutrition. She wears a standard cafeteria uniform, showing no personality in her dress. Years of thankless work have left Helga with little sense of humour. She goes to work, she goes home, repeat. She doesn't care about her job and especially not the hundreds of thankless students she serves every day.
JEREMY:Jeremy has Jock written all over him. He is tall, and anything but scrawny. His hair has to be stylishly gelled, and he has a cocky look on his face at all times. Jeremy wears a mix of preppy and trendy clothing. He looks almost clean cut but with a bit of edge to him. He avoids wearing blacks and other very dark colours, as he usually sticks to bright/midrange tones instead.
