"hey guys, my name is griffin alexander mcknight. call me griffy, griffin, alex, xander, or whatever creative nickname you can come up with. i just turned seventeen years old on september twentieth, i'm getting pretty old. ever since i can remember i have always loved to sing and play the guitar, whether it be electric or acoustic; however i've always had a thing for the acoustic guitar. back in virginia beach, everyone knew me is that kid who was always singing and strumming his guitar, it paid off one night when i went to an open mic night sometime during my tenth grade year and met this girl gideon. we played this song together, and instantly hit it off. we began to write music together and play more often. now our two person duo, say you love me, has gotten pretty big and it's amazing.

i'm a pretty average kid, i've never really thought of myself as someone great or anything. i'm normally pretty shy around people i first meet, but once you get to know me i'm a total sweetheart. i love trying to please people and make them happy. i try not to let my problems appear on the outside and affect anyone else. i'm pretty sure that's why no one knows that i've lived most of my life without my parents or a formal guardian. i never really knew my parents, none of my other immediate family wanted me, so i went and stayed with one of my families good friends, the casanova's, when i was around two. mason casanova(their son) has been my bestfriend throughout my life, he's helped me through every rough spot i've ever had. he's really the only person i've ever had, but then again i'm not really sad about it because i don't know any better.

i remember one of the highest points in my life, the first day i picked up an acoustic guitar. i was around eight years old, mason was eleven, he began to teach me how to play. at the end of the first day of me playing, i was strumming like i had been playing my whole life. it brought out the emotional side in me, i talked to mason that night about my parents, everything that was bothering me. i realized at that point that i was better without them, i was here for a reason, doing what i was doing for a reason. from that point on wards i turned into who i am today. the shy, sweet, eager to please griffin mcknight. i was who i was for a reason.

in this day and age i'm a pretty easy going kid. after i met gideon, everything has been going well. every since i surrounded my life with music. i moved out of the casanova house to maryland, renting out a pretty nice pent house. all i have is my corgi puppy, my old acoustic guitar, say you love me, and a few dollars to my name. but hey, i love my life. simple, easy, free, and on the run. i don't think i could ask for anything better. nor would i trade this life for anything or anyone else's life."





^{hey, so i'm addy. i've been roleplaying for five years now. as well as this character, i also play none for now. you can reach me by pm if you need me for anything. i found PERFECT DYSFUNCTION by an add on caution i believe and i'm pretty glad i did. here's an example of mah skillz. (:}

the girl was actually excited. for once in her life she as excited to do something besides drinking, smoking, or doing drugs. this day was going to change everything for her. but she knew even after this day she would still need this kid to be around, to be there for her, and to help her as she sobered up; became the real rilynn and not this fake copy of her. as zak turned and smiled at her, she couldn't help but show a huge geeky grin on her face. he made her happy, and that was weird.. this whole day was weird. nothing like this has ever happened to rilynn, not since she was a wee little kid. but she was so happy that it was happening to her now, so that just maybe everything could now begin to get better. things were already looking up with ry making an actual friend.

"Well, you just got to get your hand in the hole, and pull yourself up. And once you have a good grip on it, you can reach up and pull yourself up onto the ledge. Once you do that, it'll be easy to jump onto that ledge, and get onto the roof." rilynn listened intentally, making sure she got what he was saying so that she could do this right. she had done some rock climbing in her day, so this could be kind of easy for her. but that was to be determined. "okay okay, so i pull myself up using that tiny hole, then i reach up to the other ledge, and i can then easily swing myself onto the roof? sounds easy enough." ry put on a smile. when he crouched down and offered her his arm, she grinned. "i think i got this, just be under me, just in case i fall." ry looked up at the wall, this was a battle that she needed to face. and she was going to do this, by herself, and at the top, release all her problems.

she grabbed a hold of the tiny hole and with all her might pulled herself up, she made sure her grip was secure before pulling herself up onto the next ledge. she didn't move for a few seconds, giving herself time to rest before finally pulling herself up to the roof. she stood up and took in the cold air, it was accelerating, being up there, so high and knowing that you got yourself up there. after a minute, or so, she looked down, "join me?" rilynn smiled, giving him that cute smile that she always hid from everyone.
