Appearance;; Lily Jeffery is a fairly simple looking person. Not that she isn’t lovely, but it’s not as if she has any extraordinary features. Her long hair, like so many others, is a shade of brown that is similar to chocolate and she wears it in many different ways, depending upon her mood. With her chocolate brown hair, most would expect this woman to have dark eyes. But her eyes are a shade of hazel, that are nearer to gray than either brown or green and they show her emotions most noticeably. Her most noticeable feature, are her freckles, because she has extremely pale skin and her hair somehow always billows around her face, letting her freckles shine through the brown mass.
Nothing about her features would make her drop-dead gorgeous, although she is a rather lovely specimen of the female gender. She doesn’t have high cheekbones or luscious lips, or anything that makes her overtly gorgeous. The only semi-extraordinary thing she does have is the look of mystery that will never leave from her face. When she smiles, the look of mystery is still there. When she frowns, when she laughs, when she cries, the look of mystery is still there. Lily stands around 5’5, a decent height, but still not too tall for a woman, but like some people who make themselves seem smaller by insecurities, Lexa makes herself seem taller by her overwhelming amount of self-confidence.

Personality;; Because of the plain, simple, flower that Lily’s nickname is derived from, one might think her plain Jane. Lillian Annabelle Jeffery is anything but a plain girl. In fact, none of the words that describe her are even remotely plain; vibrant, dreamer, friendly, social loving, and tempestuous just to name a few.
Vibrant; she is one of the most exuberant girls that one will ever meet. She rarely sits down, preferring to be moving all the time, believing that she can make someone understand her better if she is speaking with her whole body rather than her words; mostly, it just ends up unnerving people. After all, if someone stood a lot of the time, moving their hands constantly and spoke of dreams, what would you feel? While some people enjoy her liveliness, many people find that they can only take Lily in small doses.
Dreamer; Lily’s dreaming started when she first entered the world of Dr. Seuss. Ever since then, her favorite pastimes have been daydreaming and cloud watching. If Lily stops talking mid-sentence, or just seems to not be paying attention, it’s a good bet to think that, unlike most people, she is not in deep thought over topics of great importance but she is merely dreaming up a world of fantasy where she can disappear to when things get rough. In fact, she has a shelf full of notebooks that carry particular daydreams of hers, worlds really, that she wouldn’t mind writing about, although because she is so active at all times except when daydreaming, she doesn’t really have the patience to sit down and write the stories. She also doesn’t think that anyone would find them interesting, so she may as well keep them in her own mind.
Friendly; the definition of this word is Lily. Even if you’re the most awkward person ever, she’ll make an effort to befriend you and make you feel comfortable. To those who accept her friendship, she remains steadfastly loyal, but to those whom don’t, watch out because she’s as tempestuous as a storm when it comes to broken friendships and one moment she may say that you’re an acquaintance and the next she may be accusing you of taking her friendship and tossing it in the trash.
Social; because of her friendly nature, Lily loves to be social and she jests that it’s to make up for her brother’s lack. If there’s a party that she’s invited to, only a herd of elephants (or being grounded) will stop her from attending. However, even though she’s from New York, she doesn’t believe in drinking to excess or taking drugs, because she dreams enough as it is. She doesn’t need to use something that could harm her to make herself go to a far off place.
Loving; Lily is one of those rare people whom falls in love with things quickly, and stays in love with them. If she would have been allowed, during her childhood she would have gone up and down the streets of The City and collected all the stray cats and dogs and brought them to her apartment; her parents forbade her. Because of her loving and friendly nature, Lily reaches out often to those people whom she meets that seem as if they just need a bit of loving, like those dogs and cats. Similarly, Lily does believe in true love. In fact, she believes, sadly, that she is one of the few in the world that does and because of that, she believes that it is her duty to only wed for love. She may date and flirt all she wants, but she refuses to marry for anything less but that whirlwind love that one always hears about and wants to be true.
Tempestuous ; if you haven’t figured out by now that Lily is a bit emotional, then you obviously don’t know her one bit. Who else could bicker with a brother one moment and then staunchly defend him the next? Who else could insist that handwriting things are the best during a discussion taking place though instant messenger? Who else could say that she only truly feels alive when running and feeling the wind through her hair or when she’s lying outside, looking up at the clouds? Only Lillian Annabelle Jeffery.

&&Unique
&&Loving
&&Friendly
[an old man gave me a tip]

Jonas Jeffery-Father
Jesse Jeffery- older brother
Love Interests;; Turner Whitlow
Cordell Frost
Other Involved Characters;;The above four and Coralee Oaks, Liam Forester, Tohna Linkin, Julia Jackson.
History;; From the moment that Jesse Jeffery’s little sister was born in White Plain’s Hospital just outside of New York City, everyone knew that she would be a dreamer. Unlike most babies, she was not born with celestial blue eyes or brown eyes. She was born with a pair of haze; eyes that to this day have not changed from their gray-green hue and one of the superstitious nurses noted that olive eyed babies. From the start, her older brother was not pleased with his little sister. For one thing, she was taking his parents away from him! For another, she rarely cried like his friends little siblings and it was… Well, unnerving. Even to this day, Lily doesn’t cry over little things. In fact, the only times that she has ever cried was upon discovering that her mother had cancer and that her father had been injured in the war.
Lillian, or Lily as she started to become called in kindergarten, had a pretty average life, if not a bit unloved by her older brother and father, the former just disliking her and the latter being too busy with his law firm, a job he hated as he preferred gardening to practicing it but he needed to keep it to support his family, to pay much attention to her. Her mother, a librarian at the main branch of New York Public Library, often took Lily to work with her and it was there that Lily, upon learning to read at the age of five, fell in love with dream worlds and fantasies, those things that one could find in the books. When Lily turned ten, her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and Lily experienced her first cry since the time she was four. Soon, she started to stop delving into books as often to read of their worlds, but instead started to daydream much more to get away from the pains of the world. Although her mother did overcome the cancer, politics in the world started to foreshadow the war and Lily started to daydream more and more often of times without nuclear weapons and murdering dictators.
Soon after Madeline was deemed cured, Jonas Jeffery decided that he wanted to move his family to St. Peters, the town where he had grown up before going to attend Columbia, where he had then met his future wife. There were several reasons behind his reasoning; for one thing, it was completely different from The City and that’s what they needed and for another, it seemed to be safe unlike most of the country. How right he was… When Lily heard they were going to move, she was a bit… unfazed. Her friends from New York were leaving, moving elsewhere since New York was falling apart at its seams because of the world’s politics; it was best to go. She was a bit doubtful whether she would like it, since it sounded like dullsville to her, but upon arriving, she found that the people were not hicks like she thought; except her brother and father, that is. It seemed that the farm that her father had bought was exactly what he wanted and he spent every moment working it until he was summoned to war, along with her brother, who had a similar liking of the farm. Although Lily was no fan of farming, she did start to grow a small flower garden that was filled primarily with lilies.
As the town was pretty empty, with most of the male gender gone, Lily at first thought that it lacked people as she had fathomed. But then she started school and met many interesting people, including Coralee Oaks, who is steadily becoming a friend of hers, as well as some of the male gender whom she has started to like, even though she knows that some of them she most definitely should not. For starters, she likes Turner who is dating another girl, who she doesn’t dislike except for the fact that she’s dating Turner. Then there’s Jared whom is dating Piper Pratt, the perfect smart good girl. And then there’s Cordell, who introduced her to his brother Jared before he went to war, which is really shy and never seems to really get her random, wistful comments. But then the war began and most of these boys, except Cordell went to war. And when they came back, something major had changed. Jesse was engaged to a total… Well, shrew would be putting it nicely. But she was just his little sister and until a certain woman came into the picture, she merely thought that Jesse was indifferent to Corina. But then she met Tohna and heard Jesse mention her once or twice, and Jesse never mentions girls! So she knew that Jesse liked her, but what was she to do? She’s just a fifteen year old girl!

| QUOTE |
| Too many guests were arriving too quickly and Elf felt overwhelmed. She would never admit this aloud, of course, nor would it show upon her face or through her actions. But just because one didn't show something, it didn't mean that one was immune to the emotion. In fact, Lady Westmount was so attune to the emotion rather then immune that she could pinpoint the exact moment when she first felt overwhelmed. It was when she was greeting the Earl of Shriler when she happened to look up and gaze out at the long receiving line that went as long as her sight could see. Blast, why had she simply had to invite anyone and everyone in order to make sure nobody was offended? It's not as if I truly mind offending people; it's not as if anything I do would surprise most of the Ton any more, she thought wryly as she greeted a friend of hers. And then out of the corner of her gray eyes, she witnessed several people moving from the receiving line past her in order to enjoy the festivities. While this was not breaking any rules of society, since it was a masquerade, it was plain rude and Elf wasn't sure whether to be offended or just let it pass, since she really couldn't greet every person who had deemed her event worthy for them to attend. And it seemed that everybody whom she had invited had decided that her Ladyship was a person whom they did not wish to offend. And they had a right to fear annoying Elf; after all, even if she had no say in Parliament because of her gender, she was an extremely powerful woman nonetheless. Hearing the music descending from the balcony above the main hall where the maze was set up and Elf clapped her hands and all the people who stood before her stopped talking. "The festivities are now beginning, I suggest you all to enjoy yourselves!" and with that, Elf quickly turned away, hoping to avoid the mass of people whom would chase after her either because they were enraged for their time wasted by standing on the receiving line or in hopes of pursuing the wealthy Lady Westmount. And her title. Neither of which, Elf had any desire to share. Ever. She just had yet to let the world know of her decision to let her family line die out. It wasn't as if they would stay Delaney's if she married anyway... The law said that upon marriage, a husband and wife became one. And the husband was that one. And Lady Elfled Sarah Delaney, Countess of Westmount would never be happy with that. Walking several feet and skirting around someone who seemed to be dressed as Joseph with his colored coat and a shepherdess who were cozying up to one another besides a small table, Elf couldn’t help but hope that they were married or at the very least engaged. Or else that would be their fate very soon for everyone knew that when one became unmasked at midnight, scandal would ensue. She paused, wondering whether she should demand that the two lovers stop displaying their affairs at the entrance of her home, or whether she should just let the romantic in her fly free. And then she turned around suddenly as she felt someone tap her on her shoulder. One of her hands flew, almost instinctively to her shoulder, not out of fright but almost to protect herself as her hand was only a movement away from her well-stocked quiver. Upon seeing that it was no attacker, but a woman, although she did not recall the woman's name, she lowered her hand and smiled upon hearing the redhead's words. "Thank you very much," she said, never letting the smile falter, although she was sick of repeating the same words over and over again. "Although many people put their work into this; I merely invited what seems to be the whole of London!" |

Ohkay, there's jsut really one big thing:
Their mother did not die, they simply moved from New York to St.Peters because they were all much more a farming family and if you could go into a bit more detail about their move and her newfound friendships and how she's dealing with it- that'd be GREAT! Thank you!
Other than that, I lvoe the hold you have on Lily and I definitely think you've got her!

Oh good, I was worried that I didn't understand what you wanted her to be like. I'll fix the history now.
Okay, so the mother didn't die, but should I keep in that the father did? And did Jesse go to war? I wasn't quite clear about that. And just how new are they?
I'm just going to PM you about this.
