The Boarding House RP


 

Here is a Q&A. 

Olivia Jameison is the owner of the boarding house. She is tall, blonde and perhaps on the stout side. She says she's always been a healthy girl and grew up in Texas, but went to California in hopes of being a songwriter after leaving high school. However, it didn't last long. She found herself back in Austin in the music district better known as  6th Street was good to her for a time, but soon found some fun in Vegas, and has now inherited her old Aunt's property that was once a dorm on an old college near Corpus Christie, Texas.

So what name or names do you like to go by:

Olivia: Oh, I'll come running whatever you call me (she slaps her hand down on the arm of the cushy couch and grins. She's a bit nervous about this interview). Gawd, I've been called all sorts of things. (she bursts into laughter with a big grin, but she can't keep still as she crosses her legs, but then ends up swinging to cross her legs the other way in her tights and tunic. She picks at a loose fabric on the arm of the couch) Hell, I've even been called Momma. (She gives a bright look at the camera) Not that..that I've ever had any of my own, but you know, I'm an Auntie..and I worked as a paraprofessional on occasion. (She shrugs) Finally, she is calm as she thinks on a name) Look, people call me Livy, Livia, Liv. (she's even lipped)

Did you have to do a lot to the place before you opened?

Olivia: Not much (she won't look at the interviewer but finally looks up, yet goes back to the loose thread on the arm of the couch) You know (she shrugs) a splash of pain, here and there. (she sighs) It's a work in progress, you know.

What can your boarders expect from you while they are here?

Olivia: Well, the rooms are clean. (she practically snaps) I have breakfast at six in the morning and dinner at six in the evening, if they want it.

It's not extra?

Olivia: No sir. (She  looks a little sad when she says it.) It's the least I can do. Some of these folks don't have a lot.

What can they have in their room, if they want to make their own food?

Olivia: (she hugs herself) Well, I tell you, no air fryer, no instapot. Just an electric kettle. I guess a mini-fridge, but I'm not running no party central. (she looks a bit bug-eyed about the matter) Nothing gets past me. I check those rooms, you see! (She's a bit worked up, but then sats back hugging herself to be calm) I- I was recently diagnosed with ADHD. (she sighs) I'm afraid the medication isn't working. Just makes my face break out, you see. (her frown is small and round) I live in the basement. It's a walk-in basement, and I just go up the stairs to the kitchen every morning to start my day.

What do you like to do for fun?

Olivia: Well, there is always wine. But its for me. (she puts her hand to her chest) I don't share it with just anyone.
