General Appearance: Being five-foot-one, Tati is pretty small, both for her age and in general. She always wears a big cheerful smile on her face that makes her reminiscent of a nine-year-old as opposed to a thirteen-year-old girl. She doesn't walk, she skips. She easily blends into the background...unless she's annoying you to hell (which is most of the time).
What Makes Them Them
Personality Description: Tatiana Conners. She is completely blind as to what goes on in the world.
I suppose it's a little classic... hippie dad, disappearing mother, annoying kid. Tatiana is just about the most annoying kid you could meet. If you happened to dial a wrong number on the phone, and Tatiana picked up and began talking, you would probably think she was in first grade. This isn't helped by the fact that she knows absolutely nothing that will help her survive in the real world. Her idea of a bad word is "guts" (Ramona Quimby, anyone?). She thinks people shouldn't kiss until they're about thirty-five years old, shouldn't drink ever, and if someone's skirt hits anywhere above half-way down their shins, they had better go and change if they don't want to hear a long-winded scream in terror (from Tatiana, yes).
She's so creepily blind she might as well have been raised by wolves. Tatiana is extremely annoying, will get on your nerves if she's simply within a fifty-yard radius of you, and asks so many questions you will wish that you were deaf. She is extremely bubbly and extroverted — ridiculously — and will simply laugh off any insults. She never gets upset, even if she should, and thinks that people who insult her are funny (because she thinks that they are joking). She thinks that everyone automatically likes her.
Tati is completely chatty and will talk to almost anyone. She is very eager to learn and, unlike some other girls her age, cares more about school and learning than guys. In fact, she still believes in the whole third-grade "cootie" thing and will avoid guys at all costs.
Likes: Her twin sister, sweet food, people, holidays and being with other people.
Dislikes: When people stomp on bugs, when she doesn't understand things, the color black, gloomy things, when she is accidentally clumsy.
Fears: Older children, wild animals, and thunder.
Secrets: She once didn't wash her hands after using the bathroom.
Ambitions: To figure out secret codes people use and maybe to become a spy.
Powers: She can grow plants and has a knack for cooking.
Family and History
Personal History: Quoted from Aries, used with permission.
The Conners family has been known to be... difficult. Since the sixteen hundreds, almost everyone in their family where annoying. It was even rumored that they where distantly related to the Kardashians, but it was never proven true. It was a common known fact around their neihborhood -- which ever neihborhood that had the Conners in it -- that they where the most annoying people on the planet.
Every kid had one friend at most, but usually they had their family as their friend. People stopped inviting them places because they where known to invite themselves to pepole's houses, then talk to them for so long that they finally gave in and let them come over, only to pay for it later. The Conners meant well, but they just couldn't take a social hint.
Kooky Mark Conners was a chip off the old block. He was trying to be nice, but he was slow and, again, couldn't take a social hint. He only had one friend growing up, and that friend actually hated him, but tried to put up with it because Kooky seemed like he needed a friend. To this day, Kooky still thinks that his friend (Jacob) just had anger managment problems, and didn't actually hate him most of the times.
Kooky Mark Conners was twenty one (the gods only know how he made it that far), and working to make ends meet. He was a pizza delivery man, part-time worker at a botanical garden, and librarian. He had no idea why they wouldn't give him a raise, when everyone else got a raise. The truth was that he was slow at the best of times.
He was working at botanical gardens as a chashier, when he met Fiona Demetrius (Demeter). He was immediately entranced by her, as she had hair that the light bounced off of, and her face was kind and gentle. She was amazing to him. To Demeter, well, Mark looked like he needed a friend.
It was Kooky's first time at romance, but he tried to do as best as he could. He left the cashier and the person trying to check out, and walked over to Demeter.
Being all skilled in social and all, he just said: ''Hi.''
He didn't think it was bad. He figured that he was twenty one... he could date! It might be a little young, since his mom was twenty three when she got her first date, and twenty five when she got married. So, Kooky wasn't THAT young for dating. But those sixteen year olds that start dating... Kooky got lost in thought about this subject and didn't listen to Demeter's words.
''Oh... uh... hello.'' Demeter said, smiling at him. ''I'm Deme--,'' Fiona/Demeter had started to say. ''Fiona Demetrius.'' She corrected. Luckily, he seemed to not be paying attention. That was also quite annoying, considering he had talked to her first.
Kooky was actually lost in thought about carrots. Mhmm. Carrots. Don't ask how he got lost in thought in dating, then his thought went to carrots a few seconds later. The funny thing was that he couldn't remember how he got from one subject to the other.
''You know, I really like carrots.'' He said, blurting out his random thoughts. Demeter, thinking he was just trying to be funny, chuckled. ''You're funny! I think--'' Demeter was cut off by a very loud voice in the small gift shop.
''HELLO? WOULD ANYONE LIKE TO DO THEIR JOB AROUND HERE??'' Said the lady that had been trying to check out when Kooky had left. ''Hmm? Oh, I should go do that.'' Kooky said, angry inside that he had to leave before he finished the convorsation. People who interupt people are just rude.
So, Demeter left the shop. She kept thinking about him though. He was... not like others. A few monthes later, her curiosity got the best of her. She showed up at the library he was working at during Kooky's shift, and very bluntly, asked him on a date.
''Sure! Where? There's a great cloud watching club downtown, we could go there!'' Kooky said. Demeter only laughed and said: ''I know of a different club.''
Kooky questioned her a few more times about what to wear, and her persissted on knowing where they where going. But Fiona Demetrius wouldn't tell him. She realized that he would refuse once he found out what ''club'' but Demeter didn't want any other date, and she didn't want Kooky to say no. Stubborn, much?
So, Demeter picked him up and took him to a club. Like, flashing lights, music, that kind of club. Kooky refused to go in at first, then warmed up to the idea and went in. Demeter drank, and bought him alchohal, too. Soon, they where both on the dancefloor laughing for not reason and falling over every five seconds.
Kooky forgot the rest of that night. All he remembered was waking up in a house he wasn't fammiliar with. Demeter had left her house to go and get breakfast and bring him back some only a few minutes earlier. But by the time she had come back, Kooky had wandered out to go find his house, cluless to what might've happened the night before.
Demeter called him a few monthes later, heavy with news.
''Kooky?'' she asked.
''Yeah.'' Kooky answered through the phone.
''I-I'm pregnant...''
''Oh... with who?''
Demeter hung up the phone right then and there. It was her own stupid mistake, and now Kooky was going to have to pay for it. And he had never made the connection that they slept together, and that was.... okay, actually. Demeter knew that Kooky was much to innocent. But he had to takecare of her child... she devised up a plan. One too give Kooky the children without him knowing they where his. It was better for everyone that way.
After the twin children where concived, Demeter cared for them for as long as they needed their mother to survived. She fed them, bought them blankets and clothed them until they where one and a half years old.
She but babyfood, milk, blankets and the babies she had named Eva and Tatiana in a basket (a very big one, I might add) and left them at Kooky's doorstep with a note attached. When Kooky came out a few hours later, he read the note.
Dear kind sir, it said.
Alas, I cannot take care of these two babies.
It would break my heart to see them be given to a stranger, and I have been watching you for a while, and you seem to be the nicest person I can find.
I hope you accept these children, and not give them away.
I have put all the supplies I had for them in the basket.
Thankyou so much,
Ceresta Demetri
(Demeter > Ceres > Ceresta)
(Demeter > Demetri)
Kooky happily accepted the two babies, and use the supplies Ceresta (or Demeter) had given him until they ran out. He had to work four jobs, and take care of them. Needless to say that he was busy. But he didn't mind, he just did what he thought a favor, but really it was his kids.
Tatiana and Eva where never socially accepted. All throughout school, even the bullies learned not to pick on them because they wouldn't undertsand the insult most of the time, then talked the bullies to death. Eva got detention several times for blurting things out in class like: ''One time I rode a pony!'' and, ''What color is Justin Bieber's hair?''. The teacher never understood their strange minds, so they always assumed that they where trying to disrupt the class, therefore Eva was sent to the principle's office.
Tatiana had yelled ''THAT'S INAPPROPRIATE!'' At several boys and girls that where holding hands and/or kissing when the teachers weren't looking. Usually, the teachers didn't see them kissing, so they gave Tatiana detention for trying to get people in trouble, and shouting.
The two twins where never able to figure why they had no friends. They tried to be friendly, but they where hated. Teachers may not admit it, but they would take the lazy boy in the back of the class over Tatiana or Eva any day.
Outside of school, Kooky allowed them to be slow and unlikeable. He didn't disclipine them or tell them how to act. They remaned nice, yet unlovable. They even earned the nickname ''Crazy Conner'' and that was how the nieborhood in Washington DC knew them.
When they where seven years old, Demeter came to them in the form of an old women. She walked up to the door and knocked, Kooky Conners came out.
''Hello?'' He asked.
''Kooky Conners?'' Demeter croaked in a voice very unlike her own.
''Yes. That's me.''
''I am Ceresta Demetri's mother.''
Kooky's mouth dropped open. This was their actual grandmother. Why now? Why after five years did someone show up? It didn't make sense. And if this old hag wanted Tatiana and Eva, she would have to fight Kooky. He wasn't giving these babies he has raised up so easily. He had raised them. No on else. And Kooky loved them more than he had anything else. No one was taking them.
''Ceresta passed away a few days ago,'' Demeter said. ''And her deathbed wish was that her twins go to a camp.''
Demeter figured it was too late to explain everything, so she made up a lie saying that Eva and Tatiana where the daughter of a Goddess (Kooky never made the conection that Demeter just said she had passed away, so it didn't make sense) and that they needed to go to Camp Half-Blood before it's too late.
Kooky was gullible, so it didn't take much to convince him of anything. He got on an airplane and took Tatiana and Eva to camp.
Tatiana and Eva never had friends at camp, either. They thought that they had friends, but everyone generally avoided them.
Eva never gained skills, her fighting remained weak and her archery even worse. She was too slow to keep up with any class, so she soley relied on natural skill, which she had none of. All she had was a big heart and a sweet face.
Tatiana was able to keep up with class, but she didn't improve much either. They both didn't learn that much from anything because of their natural ADHD and annoying-ness, so the teacher just generally didn't like them (can't say I blame them :]).
Over the first few year (1-3) their dad took them home for the winter. But one year he couldn't because of a business trip, and they never came home for the winter since. They just lived their life at camp, much to everyone's displeasure.

I, Maria, have made this entirely up. I did not rip somebody else’s application from any site, and have followed the rules accordingly.
And…? Yes.
