Mary-Paige Ashmore

Bio:

	M A R Y
	Name: Mary-Page Ashmore (she never acknowledges her name is hyphenated, though. Mary-Paige is just silly, she’s Mary, MP, or even Paige. Never Mary-Paige.) Age: 25 D.O.B.: December 13 Hometown: San Francisco, California
	HISTORY Mary's childhood was normal, except her parents weren't like all the other kids', and that rubbed off on her. She's been used to observe people acting stupid since she was very young, because her father (also a biker) owns a club and her mother's a pub manager. So, and because they didn't have a sitter - Mary would bite them. Zombie-like - they had to take her with them to one place or the other. It didn't traumatize her, but it might have helped with who she is today. After all, she spent her whole childhood hanging out either at Hennessey's or at Malt Finish (which, despite the name, is actually a night club and not so much a beer place), watching drunks, sluts, assholes and the likes, being who they are when they think no one's looking. She had average grades, and tried to play sports, although that never worked because it would always - always - end in epic ass-kickings. By her, to other kids, including her own team's. You see, sometimes they made bad choices that Mary didn't understand because they were so obviously bad, and that made her mad. In High School, while the preps and jocks obviously wanted nothing to do with her, she was somewhat admired by a tiny group of people for just being so crazy and bad-ass. Admired from afar, that was. But the ones who did work up the courage to approach her eventually would see that she isn't as crazy as she looks, at least not all the time. She had fun, and she knew how to make other people have fun. Just take them to her dad's club from the back door. If her father ever knew, he would've kicked her ass for putting his own ass on the line like that, but he never did. Luckily. Other than being Queen of Chocolate (from that episode of Scrubs on) Mary never really had dreams or life goals, except for one: Work at a nightclub. It was pretty easy to fulfil, although she hardly ever works at her dad's club because 'she's seen it before', but before she turned 21, it was hard to find a place that would employ her in that area. Mary went from dog walker to underpaid temp although she would use her fake ID to get into clubs where nobody knew her or her dad. Usually far away from where she lived. When she was 20 she went to Vegas with friends for a weekend of debauchery, but didn't leave on Monday morning. Mary had met Paul, a charming weirdo just like her who enjoyed laughing at other people's expense. Truthfully, he was an ass, but she liked him. After about four months together, they eloped - although can one really elope to Vegas when you're living there? - in some Chapel, which was absolutely hilarious to Mary. They were very happy, in post-marriage do-nothing bliss, but a few months late, while off-his-head drunk, Paul tried to prove or disprove God's existence forever: He stood in the middle of a busy road, screaming "If God exists, He'll save me!". He didn't. Paul was brutally ran over by a tow truck while Mary tried desperately to get him to cross the street to the other side. She doesn't remember much, but apparently he was torn apart. Although she really cared about him, and mourned him for a while, Mary couldn't bring herself to really feel sorry for him or his death...Because it was the stupidest death she had ever heard of, and Paul had brought it on himself completely. Every time she remembers him, it's as an idiot who couldn't hold his liquor (or his brain), as that's her last memory of him. She does, of course, get angry at 'him' for being so stupid, and for not listening to her, but mostly, it's just bitter disappointment. Widowed and penniless, Mary went back to San Francisco and her usual life, having to endure everyone's condolences even after she established several times that he deserved it and she wasn't sorry. But people eat up clichés like it’s their job, and like to throw them on others like overtime, anyway. Mary started working the club scene again, happily, and years later it was her dad who heard of this job at the Nausicaa. She applied and, because of her experience, was accepted immediately. What could possibly go wrong? Family: Family: Her parents, who are still together, are Ben and Miriam Ashmore. She's an only child, and uncles and cousins live far away. Career/Job: You know JD's dream job on Scrubs, King of Chocolate? Mary shares that same dream. And while that isn't financially feasible (maybe one day it will, if she believes hard enough), she works the alternative bar and club scene as a bartender, occasionally DJ, and dancer.
	THE PERSON Physical Description: Mary's hair is actually brown, but she's dyed it blonde, and black. It is currently black, with short bangs, and she tends to wear piggy tails. Her eyes are green, and she's 5'10". She's healthy, average weighted, and somewhat muscular, especially her arms. It might be the juggling and shaking/stirring. She's your typical punk/goth hybrid, though as she's getting older her style is branching out a little bit, into something for all occasions and purposes. She's still very partial to black. Her make-up usually consists of light foundation and red lipstick, but, again, now she's beginning to branch out there too. She has several tattoos, two in her forearms, one little stick-figure angel on her upper back, and a gothic cross across her lower back; she's also got a smiley tattoo on the third finger of her right hand. Personality: Mary is...Well, weird. Ever since she can remember, though she can't exactly pinpoint a reason for it, she's been extremely misanthropic. Mary thinks most people are ridiculously stupid, thus always expects them to do stupid things. A firm believer in the Survival of the Fittest, she thinks when the stupid do stupid things that endanger their survival, they cannot expect compassion. In fact, she thinks they deserve whatever comes to them. As you may have guessed, she's a big fan of the Darwin Awards. Despite all this she's sociable, if only because without people all around her, there wouldn't be stupid things happening, and she would cease to have something to laugh (and gloat, by comparing herself to them) about. Truth is, as much as she despises mankind as a whole, she needs it, like we all do, and even more so because comparing herself to the stupidest of the world makes her feel really good. You would think the above would make her generally broody and aloof, but it doesn't. Mary's warm, smiley and very upbeat, and just because she hates most people doesn't mean she can't endure their company. It is only when they start giving out proof of their stupidity that she completely changes gear, her eyebrow lifts almost into oblivion, and all goes to crap. She's been known to kick someone's ass for being 'so fucking stupid', and she never shies away from physical confrontation, because she's got some skills when it comes to dirty fighting. She's also got a wonderful left hook. Mary has no problem with telling you what she really thinks of you, although unless you've been completely scratched out of her book, she'll do it constructively. Otherwise, she's just cruel, sometimes. She’s also quick to roll her eyes and sigh when you're boring her, at which point she tends to turn to a bottle of anything strong. To drink it, or to throw it at you. It depends. She doesn’t appreciate preaching, preconceptions and snap judgements, and any of that kind of thing will be met with mocking, contempt and ‘shut the fuck up, bitch!’. Mary is the type of girl to sing in public, loudly, dance in public - all it takes is some good music - and she has also been known to muse and ponder to herself...Out loud. She doesn't think there's anything wrong with this - and there isn't! - but it's made other people uncomfortable. Especially since it's raw train of thought, so it doesn't always make sense or it's just one loose word here and there. She's always been mature for her age but once she reached young adulthood, it's like her childishness crept its way in again and now, she's either extremely responsible and logical, or just plain silly. Or both, on occasion. But it needs to be noted: It's more silliness than anything else. Basically, she's not very balanced; either she's extremely fun-loving and cheerful, or she's wanting to murder you in your sleep (and sometimes you don't even need to be sleeping); and what's more frightening...Sometimes it's both at the same time. Special skills/abilities: VJing and DJing, Tom-Cruise-in-Cocktail bartending skills Personal Weaknesses: As hypocritical as it may sound, Mary can very rarely go through one day without getting, at least, tipsy. Though she hasn't, to this day, allowed herself to become so deadly drunk she can't remember her actions, she seems to have an inability to go through her days without some 'help'. Especially since every time she hears someone say something idiotic, she takes a sip off her fateful Smirnoff bottle. Chocolate. She's not allergic but it does horrible things to her face and teeth, hence why she wears so much foundation sometimes. Her face gets the worst of it, but sometimes, she just can't stop. Accents. You speak to her in an accent that isn't her own or similar, and self-control no longer exists. It is like an impairment of sorts, she goes weak at the knees, gets all tingly and logical thinking gets pulled aside. (For instance: Paul, who was an ass, was also French.) Considering violence out loud in front of the person she's thinking of beating, I think can be considered a weakness. Especially because the police has been involved more than once. Mary gets too worked up about certain things sometimes and gets frightening, though she's hardly ever actually beaten someone. She gets in their faces screaming madly, and that's enough. Personal Strenghts: Apart from the violence thing, and the accent thing, you'll never catch Mary doing something without thinking about it first. Which means, when she's lucid, she's actually very grounded. She can be really cute when she wants to (has worked hard to achieve this), and that works for her in certain situations.
