Perceptions of the Dead 2 - Round 2
klotten for Tulip
Tulip
Age: "16" - Died at the age of 16 many years ago
Estimated Lines: ~50
Description: The ghost of a girl that was bullied until she could no longer take it. She haunted her old house along with another far less sentient ghost until she was rescued by Tyrone the Ghost Hunter and began haunting him instead. She has a huge crush on him, which he doesn't like, but is too polite to flatly turn her away and thus they have been in an awkward limbo for almost two years.
Note: The 'crush on Tyrone' aspect of Tulip is a play on the trope of "Old but looks ridiculously young". Instead of everyone being totally okay with it, most of the characters find it weird, uncomfortable, or even creepy (Save for one who is projecting REAL hard). As such, there will be no teenage and adult romance, even if that's "Not Technically" what would be happening.
Desired voice: High to mid range. Generally excitable with moments of despairing terror. She's essentially still a teenager.
"Tyrone! Hey Tyrone! I can only talk through the little phone speaker, can you hear me?!" (Excitedly trying to say hello to Tyrone (who is pointedly ignoring her) after her spirit gets trapped in a smartphone)
"UGH! It's NOT FAIR! I'm twenty-SIX, not SIXTEEN. I'm NOT just some teenager!" (Spoken like a true teenager)
"I don't want to die again!" (While a common sentiment among ghosts, right here Tulip is crying out in REAL anger and defiance as she fights back against what is essentially someone trying to perma-kill her. While the scene is serious, a somewhat comical twist on this is okay too.)
