I'm driving past ghosts.
Their arms are extended
My eyes start to close."

//i tried to find a face claim that was similar to the art you provided for your oc, and this was the best I could find! Sorry if there aren't the exact same style wise!

Looks in more detail: August has a very rosy flush to her pale cheeks, almost always. Her lips are plump, and a deep red color similar to that of crushed berries. Her hair is jet black, and wavy and frames her face well. She has sharp facial features, and her eyes are a soft grey shade with specks of green throughout them.

Her build is slim, but fit and she normally wears darker, earthy colors. She loves turtlenecks, because it hides the scar on her collarbone and neck as well as anything that catches her eye. She almost always has chipped black polish on her nails.

"I know that you waited
for me like a dog
But have some patience
for the part of me
That's lost."

Personality: August is sort of hard to get to know. She can come across as intimidating, and in general she's very reserved. She isn't impossible to get to know, but odds are that she'll always be hiding something about her past from you because she doesn't like talking about it. If you ever do try to get her to open up, odds are she will start cracking jokes because it's how she copes with vulnerability.

She's an incredibly fast learner, very smart and well spoken and wise beyond her years. She's awkward, even if she tries to hide it by being standoffish- she's not great socially. She is always willing to help others, and is great at listening.

Likes: sad prose, early mornings, studying but only when the subject interests her, playing piano

Dislikes: vulnerability, going to classes, tight spaces, romance novels, not being instantly good at something because she'll likely quit instead of continuing to try.

"And I've been meaning to tell you
I think you're house is haunted
And your dad is always mad and
That must be why."

Family: Felix Solace, father. Bad relationship.

Arielle Solace, mother. Deceased.

Juniper Garner, older sister. Estranged.

History: August's history is one with highs and lows, and a bit of tragedy. Her mother passed away when she was not old enough to heal on her own, but not young enough to forget. When her mother passed, it left Felix with two daughters who he didn't know how to raise. And August was the spitting image of his late wife, and only served as a painful reminder.

But August was gifted. A piano prodigy, who had mastered the instrument as a child. Soon, this would be her ticket to a better life.

Over the year he grew more and more distant, and soon became mentally abusive towards his kids. Juniper was older, she moved out and got married young and never looked back. Leaving August with her dad, alone and constantly hurt by each word that left his mouth. One incident acted as the final straw, when they got into a fight and he resolved it by destroying her bedroom as well as the framed pictures she had of her mother. He also hit her for the first time, leaving her bruised and bloody.

She applied to an all girls boarding school, hoping for a scholarship based on her perfect grades and musical skills and that's exactly what she got. And it wasn't hard to get her father to agree to ship her away.

"Oh, sweet child of mine
You're always sorry
for everything
Never apologize ."

This is the type of uniform i was thinking, but i'm down for whatever!
