Since we finished Chapter 2, I figured it'd be fun to update the character profiles for the people who will be showing up for more appearances. Didn't have room for Kristy, but she's a freshman like Stacy.
Oh also, I'll be taking a break for the rest of the month on Lesson Plan. Just to give me some time to get perspective
I actually ended up having a whole backstory in mind for Marla and 'Trina where Marla got held back back in middle school and ended up in 'Trina's grade with her. the two eventually becoming friends after at first not getting along, resulting also in their parents becoming close. But then 'Trina's parents decided to send her to Saint Rita's, possibly separating them, but Marla's parents found out there's opportunities for troubled teens here that give discounts, and managed to get Marla admitted as well.
As a result, Marla's happy to be with her only friend (and possibly unrequited crush), but is super insecure that 'Trina's going to find better friends at such a fancy school and leave her behind.
I might explore this stuff in a future story if i bother writing a sequel, but for now, i doubt any of this will see the light of day in Lesson Plan, so consider this a teaser.
