rules

l RULE ONE
Age Requirement; this blog is 18+ plus. This is nothing against younger writers and has everything to do with the fact that I’m in my upper twenties and am uncomfortable writing with minors. Don't lie about your age. It will come out and it will not but fun for either of us.
———
l RULE TWO
God Modding; do not do this. You control your character and I control mine. Trying to control the way my muse interacts with yours is absolutely grounds for me to unfollow or block. Getting angry when my muse doesn’t react the way you envisioned them reacting is also a big no. Muses are unpredictable and you cannot always anticipate how they’re going to react to a situation, and trying to guilt or manipulate a mun into changing their muse’s response is never acceptable either.
———
l RULE THREE
Shipping; this is highly selective and chemistry based. This muse is an oc child, and is a minor for more than 50% of her verse and that needs to be taken into account when writing ships for her. Margot is ten during the first avengers film and therefore twenty-one after the last battle against Thanos; she is young. I will not be writing her in ships with the Avengers, any that have unreasonable age gaps, that involve minor/adult content, or anything that resembles incest or pedophilia. Muses that are within a reasonable age range and that have chemistry can absolutely be discussed for ships! I do enjoy writing them, and I love getting to explore them when given the chance.
———
l RULE FOUR
Selective & Mutuals Only; this is not a follow for follow blog. I keep my rp circle relatively small so that I can write with all of my followers. I do check out every blog that follows me; if I follow you back it’s because I want to write with you. I attempt to plot/interact with each blog I’ve followed in some capacity. If my attempts continuously go ignored I will eventually unfollow, just to keep my dash clean. If you refollow I will likely follow back so that we can plot/write something. If you’ve been blocked, do not come to me on a different blog asking me why. My only obligation is to keep my own space safe.
———
l RULE FIVE
Muse Types; all muse types are welcome here! I am AU, Multiverse, and Crossover friendly as well. This means that while Marvel is the main universe I write in, I am open to exploring plots in other fandoms, merging fandoms, and writing entirely outside of them. I am also more than willing to come up with private verses that fit our muses best when plotting. As someone that’s been writing for 10+ years in the rpg community, I am open to exploring most things.
———
l RULE SIX
Formatting; I usually default to small text and gifs or icons. However, sometimes I’m lazy and prefer not to add the gif or icon if I don’t have the patience to look for the right one. If I know my writing partner prefers bigger text, I leave my replies in that format to make it easier. If there’s anything in particular you need for accessibility purposes please don’t hesitate to ask, I’m happy to accommodate.

l RULE SEVEN
Plotting; though it’s by no means necessary for every thread, it’s something I prefer in general. I find it especially helpful in the beginning as it allows us to set a baseline for our muses and get a general idea of where things are going. Plotting typically allows for a deeper and more fleshed out dynamic to be explored and written, which is what I prefer. As a general rule, I prefer to write multiple para threads that are at least loosely plotted. Plotting is a collaborative effort and while I don’t think it’s necessary for you to come with specific plots in mind, it’s helpful if you can come with a ‘yes and’ attitude. Please, please, please, contribute more than just ‘that sounds good’ or 'that won’t work’.
———
l RULE EIGHT
Asks & Memes; my inbox is perpetually open to mutuals, however, I can be slow with answering things. I tend to reserve them for when I have muse for them & when I’m low on drafts, as plotted threads always take precent for me. If my muse is high for that meme sometimes I can turn them out one after the next, and sometimes it can take me months. I also regularly delete memes that I don’t have muse for, which is why I encourage people to send as many as they like. I always answer at least one from each person that’s sent something in. I firmly believe memes are a great way to test chemistry so I do tend to prioritize new partners as it gives us a jumping off point. While I always post them as a new thread, there’s never any obligation to continue them beyond the drabble I’ve written, though you are always encouraged to!
———
l RULE NINE
Triggers & NSFW; I ask that both be tagged and I will be putting any nsfw content under a read more. Triggers that I ask be tagged are as followed: abortion, domestic violence, miscarriage, sexual assault, and pregnancy. In return I tag any major potential triggers with the ’ tw trigger ’ format to make things easy to blacklist if necessary. My nsfw tag is ( body talks. ) and placed under a read more.
———
l RULE TEN
Hate & Drama; leave it at the door friends. I do not tolerate homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, racism, or hatred of any kind. If anything above sounds even mildly controversial to you, please see yourself out. Any hate this blog receives will be deleted, so don’t waste my time or your own. I don’t participate in drama. This includes but is not limited to: vague posting, call outs (without substantial evidence), or anything of that nature. Please do not try to use me to get at other people that have blocked you. Unless a person I’m writing with has genuinely harmed you in some capacity, please do not come to me with mild grievances expecting me to drop them over it.
———
l RULE ELEVEN
Patience; please have some. I am an adult with a relatively busy life and rp is just a hobby for me in my down time. It isn’t an obligation and the moment it begins to feel like one is the moment I start to lose interest in it. My speed with replies ( or lack thereof ) does not equate to my interest in our thread. Sometimes my muse is fickle, sometimes my brain is fried, and sometimes writer’s block gets the better of me - it just depends. It’s okay to remind me if you genuinely think I’ve forgotten about our thread - it’s definitely happened in the past - just please don’t nag me for replies.

l THE GOLDEN YEARS
After the loss of Doctor Abraham Erkstine, the army (strongly) suggested that Steve Rogers have a child. The objective was to see if the serum could be passed through DNA. Seeing an opportunity to test his genius, and maybe under the guise of that help two of his friends, Howard Stark decided he wanted to test his abilities to create. Going beyond his usual methods of engineering, he used their predicament to engineer a child. While a child made with three strands of DNA was unheard of, Howard was determined and almost positive that the serum would allow for it to happen. The Army got to pick their carrier, and Yvette Rossi was top of their list. An Italian Freedom Fighter that was acting as a translator for the SSR at the time, Yvette was strong, intelligent, and everything they wanted in their new little soldier. Mother and Father determined, the Army was satisfied, but Howard needed one more person to volunteer. Unsurprisingly, the only other person Steve trusted to be a part of this mission was Bucky.As to be expected, with so many great minds on the case, Margherita Sarah Rogers-Barnes was born nine months later.Yvette got to hold her daughter long enough to give her a first name: Margherita, meaning pearl or daisy depending on the derivative. After that, she handed her off to her Dad and Ada, knowing that the US army would never allow her to keep her, knowing what she had agreed to from the get go, and hating it all the same. As such, Margot was raised on base by her Dads and the other commandos, with Howard helping out while they were on missions. He was given the title of godfather, both because of the part he played in her existence, and the way he took care of her when they couldn't. So when neither Bucky nor Steve survived the war, it was Howard that took the little girl home with him.When Howard moved back to the states with Margot, the Jarvis family moved in with them. Soon enough, Edwin Jarvis was both butler and nanny to the young girl. The next four years were a whirlwind of ballet lessons, preschool, kindergarten, milestones being met, and loss being discussed. Despite how young she was, Margot's memory allowed her to have vivid images of both of her Dads. Howard told her stories of them every night, and paired with her own images of them, Margot had something akin to real memories of them.Unfortunately, the peace Margot had found and the life she had started to build couldn't last. Between the records the army kept on her, and the records Howard kept on her, it was well documented that Margot had the serum. Though Howard was careful with his files, he shared information with SHIELD, and organization he helped head up and trusted. He had no idea that when Arnim Zola was hired into SHIELD that he was granted access to his files as well, not until it was too late at least. HYDRA came for her when she was most vulnerable. On one of the days she took the bus home to Mrs. Jarvis, they got her from her bus stop, just a block away from home. Despite Mrs. Jarvis noticing her disappearance almost immediately, she was taken by professionals, and HYDRA had her halfway around the world before SHIELD could even get a task force together to look for her.Just as Howard never gave up on searching for Steve Rogers, he never gave up the search for Margot either.
———
l THE LOST YEARS
Originally, Margot was taken for the purpose of recreating the Erkstine serum. However, the more Zola dug into Margot's files, the more interesting she became to him. Not only did she have Erkstine's serum, curtesy of Steve, she had his own serum, curtesy his favorite asset. Margot was kept in a state of cryostasis often, as they wanted to keep a live sample as long as they possibly could so that they could continue to study her. Margot spent decades being experimented on by several different scientists. There were four that were most notable; Arnim Zola, Nikolaus Geist, Wilfred Nagel, and Baron Strucker. Each had a different drive, a different field of study, a different objective, but they all used the same test subject. Over the years they determined how far her body and mind could be pushed, the difference between having the serum injected and having it passed down, and what, if anything, could weaken it. There was only one experiment that left a scar and it took Margot weeks to recover from it physically. After that, she was trained into a soldier instead. They got all the date they needed from her, and they had far better uses for her going forward.When they realized that they had a super soldier in their possession, one that could be raised by them and under their ideals, HYDRA tried to take full advantage. She was taught several languages, hand to hand combat, and trained in almost every weapon that could be considered useful. Margot was taught strategy and specially trained in espionage. Appearing as a small, seemingly harmless child made her the perfect siren. She was taught how to lure unsuspecting targets, prey on their compassion, and lead them to their death. Up until her training, Margot was kept mostly in isolation, only having the sterile company of tutors and scientists that poked at her. In the 90s, however, she was brought to the Winter Soldier for training.Despite her years with hydra, Margot’s memory had never needed to be wiped. They assumed, wrongly, that she didn’t remember her life before them, and Margot actively made them believe it. She held onto her memories with both hands, remembering the warmth of Howard and the Jarvis’, and how their voices sounded when they spoke about the two men she loved most in the world. It was those vivid memories that almost made her lose her cover when she’d come face to face with the soldier. Margot could recognize his face anywhere, and in the same breath, she realized that he didn’t know her at all. She was another asset to be trained, and to protect them both, Margot hid any indication that she knew him. Instead, she clung to the moments they were given together; he wasn't soft, the soldier didn't know how to be, but he was there and that was what mattered.While she was training, Margot was never sent out on missions without a handler close at hand. She was sent out with the Winter Soldier more often than not, learning how to become another version of him. Being out on missions gave her access to the outside world though, and eventually, she caught a glimpse of Steve Rogers on the news. Everyone wanted to talk about the miracle man that survived the ice: Captain America the hero from the forties that saved the world again when the Chitauri invaded. It gave Margot all the hope she needed to be brave. Margot was given leeway on her missions with the Winter Soldier not long after the battle of New York, and she capitalized on it. Without the extra set of eyes on her, she saw an opportunity. Still, as skilled as she was, part of her couldn't help but wonder if the soldier purposely let her go or if she really escaped. Either way, he lost the Winter Child, and Margot was free for the first time since the late 1940s.
———
l THE NEW AGE
When Margot escaped, she had a plan, and that plan included crossing paths with the SHIELD task force that was finishing up in the same place their mission had taken place. All she truly knew about SHIELD was that they were an enemy of HYDRA, and that made them her best chance. All she needed was to get back to her Dad. Despite her fractured sense of trust, some part of her knew that she'd be okay if she just got back to him. Still, the last time they had seen each other, she had been a toddler, and part of her worried that he wouldn't like the person she grew into. Another part of her worried that for as impeccable as her memory was, maybe it had lied to her. Maybe she'd built him up to be someone he wasn't in an effort to hold onto something good.Going home was both everything she envisioned it to be, and something new entirely. She'd given up on that dream so long ago she'd almost forgotten how to have it.Upon her homecoming, Margot was immediately put in mandated therapy. There was more than a little leniency granted to her, given her age, the circumstances, and who her Dad was, Margot was painted as the sympathetic victim, and as long as she stuck to therapy, she was free. Though she was resistant to the treatment at first, therapy went a long way in helping her adapt to the twenty-first century and cope with the trauma she endured. Even so, learning to manage her trauma didn't make it go away, and Margot had decades of it to contend with. Despite the work she did to unlearn the behaviors she'd adapted to survive, Margot still struggled with them.

Unfortunately, unbeknownst to her, the therapist SHIELD assigned her to was actually a HYDRA agent. While they did help her work through some of her trauma, they mostly were there to monitor her progress and ensure that she didn’t become a major threat to the organization. Mainly, her therapist worked hard at convincing her that the Soldier she thought was her Ada, was merely her mind projecting in order to protect itself. Margot put a safe face to the safest person available in an unsafe situation, and even she had to admit that it made more sense than her dead Ada coming back to life. So Margot said nothing.As such, when the truth came out during the collapse of SHIELD, Margot took it incredibly hard. The guilt at keeping quiet, at being manipulated all over again, filled her with a rage she typically didn't express. It took Margot a long time to go back to therapy, and actually start making headway again.Still, by that point, she had learned to put her faith in Steve, and that made all the difference. Margot had a support system, small as it was, which made dealing with the guilt and anger a little bit easier. So even though it felt like the world kept trying to take her out, she had people to rely on.
———
l THE ART OF LIVING
The hunt to find her Ada was a difficult one though, and one that Margot knew would be fruitless until he wanted to be found. Still, she didn't drag her feet as they went searching for him, and Margot pitched in as much as she could. Whatever insight she could offer, she gave it. Margot just wanted to bring him home safe. She wanted him to have a chance at a life with them, or a chance at any life at all.HYDRA's resurgence put a halt in their search though. Getting the scepter back took precedent, and though she hated that their search was delayed, she understood it. Moving into the Compound was an adjustment, but one she got used to all the same. Though she was by no means an Avenger, she was able to provide tactical insight before their missions. Margot had a list of old bases for them to search, as well as the patterns of how they were typically guarded, at least a few years prior.Finding out that her Dad and the rest of the team crossed paths with Strucker made her flinch. Hearing about the twins was a harrowing experience, as it brought up more than a few nasty memories for Margot. The more they told her about their powers, the more she realized that she had been the prototype for what Strucker had turned them into. By the time the Compound was attacked by Ultron, Margot was raw and vulnerable. She did her best to help, but ultimately, she was injured in the attack. Still, Margot was there in Sokovia, unable to sit on the sidelines while something so world ending took place.It was after that particular battle that Margot got back into therapy, willingly. Doctor Melanoë Solace won Margot over quicker than most people did. It didn't take her nearly as long as she anticipated for her to start opening up to her in a way that prompted meaningful growth and healing.However, the introduction of the Accords threw a wrench in the routine she was building. Before the end of the document, Margot had known how ugly things were about to get. Truthfully, aspects of them left her paralyzed, and Margot would drop off the grid before she allowed her name to be signed on them. Though she was still a minor, she fell under the category of people that would be regulated by that document, and Margot despited it. She'd been controlled for decades, saw what that looked like in the wrong hands, and refused to be a part of that again. Margot was relieved when she found out her Dad had a similar mindset to the whole ordeal.So Margot was hardly surprised when everything went to shit. Margot stayed off the radar through most of the chaos, hidden away in a safe house so that she couldn't be used as leverage. It wasn't until they were granted stay in Wakanda that Margot was reunited with her Dad and finally, her Ada. Over the next couple years, Margot mostly stayed in Wakanda while she finished high school and focused on healing. Just when she thought she was falling into a routine and a little bit of normalcy, a war so big came that half the world disappeared.Though Margot survived the snap, a piece of her died when she watched her Ada disintegrate before her eyes. The first year was more of a blur for her than anything else. She took a gap year from school and tried to put back the pieces of her life. It was the following year she double majored in political science & psychology at the University of New York. By the fifth year of the snap, she held a BA in both.After that, Margot's attention diverted back to the field again. Now that there was a plan in place to actually bring everyone home, all of her focus turned to that. Margot was just glad that Tony had agreed to help them in the end.Despite their success, losing Natasha made her question if it was worth it. Margot was not in the habit of trading lives, and she certainly wasn't prepared to lose someone as important to her as Nat. Before she could even begin to process her grief, they were getting everyone back; a supposed joyous occasion.And in the same breath, Thanos attacked. Margot wasn't even surprised that the celebratory moment was met with something harrowing. Still, five years of grief, five years of anger, five years of longing left her a little more ruthless than she had been before. The loss of Natasha just tipped her over the edge, and Margot was fully prepared to fight to her very own death. There would be no more survivors guilt for her; either they all went home or she died on the field with them.When the dust settled and Margot realized what happened, both anger and grief flared up within her. Of all the people on the field that might have survived a snap, she didn't understand why it had to be Tony. Mostly, the anger was a cover for the immense grief she felt at losing him.Still, before she left the battle field, she was reunited with two of the people she had missed both; her Ada and Sam. It was the silver lining that cut through the grief, and Margot had held onto her Ada as tightly as she possibly could.After her Dad came back from returning the stones, and entered into his version of retirement, their family was able to settle into a new routine. Margot got into Columbia for law school, and finished her program in three years. During the first year, she spent almost all of her off time providing support for her Ada during his trial, not wanting him to go through it alone. Margot lived at home the first year, unable to be apart from her parents after so many years of separation.

verses

l MAIN VERSE
^{( marvel )
           SUMMARY}
_{While out on a mission, Margot caught sight of a newsreel discussing the battle of New York. Seeing her father’s face, one that was ingrained in her memory from infancy, had sparked a sense of hope that Margot had long forgotten about. It was just enough to force the young girl into action. Escaping was difficult in and of itself, but finding her Dad was the true test of her abilities. Margot had intended on making her way to New York, but she ended up crossing paths with a SHIELD agent, which was arguably, even better. Despite her fear and hesitancy at being brought in by their organization, Margot trusted them - remembering the founders fondly and the organization’s connection to her Dad.While the reunion was sweet and might suggest that things were settled now that she was home, Margot went through a major adjustment period. Not only was she unfamiliar with the modern world, she was also trying to get used to having her autonomy back. Margot had decades of PTSD inducing trauma to unpack, all while she attempted to bond with her Dad. In the midst of battling her own turmoil, Margot has to deal with the outside world that refuses to be forgotten.Following canon, over the course of her teenage years, she gets dragged along for the collapse of SHIELD, discovers her Ada is alive, aides her Dad in the search for him, is present ( though not involved ) when Ultron attempts to take over the world and decimates Sokovia, is forced to live on the run due to the Accords, reunites with her Ada only to be immediately separated due to him healing in cryo, only to be reunited again right before Thanos attacks, watches as most of her loved ones are snapped away, spends the next five years trying to get them back, only to succeed and face their greatest threat all over again.Each of those events were traumatic in their own way, and Margot not only had to reconcile with her past, but continuously do the work to deal with her present. Instead of running off in the past with the stones, her Dad ends up lost in the limbo of time while trying to return the stones. In the present year of the MCU, Margot is still trying to figure out how to bring her Dad back, unwilling to give up on him just because he was stuck in time, all the while trying to figure out how to continue moving forward in her own life.}           ^TIMELINE
_{When this verse starts it is 2012 and Margot is physically ( and mentally & emotionally ) 10 years old. When SHIELD collapses she’s 12, almost 13, and when Ultron appears she’s going on 15. During the era of the Accords, Margot is 16 and starting to become more active and less passive in crisis situations. The first time Thanos comes she’s still only 17, and given that she wasn’t snapped, she’s 22 when they get everyone back and fight him again. Her age in threads depends on when the thread is taking place in the timeline.}           ^HEADCANONS_{1) After the snap, Margot had a major setback in her healing process. Her PTSD symptoms came back in full swing, her anxiety peaked, and her depression created a spiral so great that she wasn’t sure she’d ever see the other side of it. Then she met Smaug, a little runt of a pup that was abandoned as a result of the snap, and Margot couldn’t resist taking him in. She took the time to get him trained as a therapy dog, and from then on their bond only grew stronger. there’s very few places Margot goes that Smaug isn’t with her.2) Mr. & Mrs. Jarvis did the bulk of day to day caretaking when Margot was younger, and as such, she picked up a lot of practices and traditions from them over the years. Ana Jarvis celebrated many aspects of her Jewish heritage in her home, and as such, Margot grew up with a lot of those traditions. As an adult, she still practices them and pays homage to them in honor of her pseudo mother.3) Margot has an eidetic memory due to the serum, and that is both her biggest curse and greatest blessing. Being able to recall her fondest memories in perfect detail was what forced her to keep going all those years - to survive a little longer. However, that same memory recalls her worst moments of torture in perfect detail and haunts her in her dreams more frequently than she cares to admit.4) When she took on the mantle of Red Winter, it was for a significant reason. Winter had been the closest thing to a name she’d had for nearly seven decades. Despite how she got it, there was a personal significance in it to her. More than anything, it felt like she was reclaiming something that was hers.}           ^HOOKS
_{AVENGERS: Given that her father is an Avenger, Margot has grown up in and around the team and their home bases. While her Dad is out missions, she is often left at tower/compound where it’s safe and well protected. She has a tendency to sneak into the kitchen for late night snacks when she has trouble sleeping.
SHIELD: Due to her father’s close affiliation with SHIELD, Margot has been around the organization since she was ten. Since her rescue, she’s been Steve’s shadow, so while he’s working or in meetings, Margot can often be found doing her school work or reading in his office.
SCHOOL: During her middle school and high school years, Margot attended school in Brooklyn, Washington D.C., and at Midtown High School of Science and Technology. During this time, she joined the track and field team as well as the cross country team, even if she wasn’t allowed to officially compete due to her enhanced abilities.
COFFEE SHOPS: Margot spends Saturday mornings in her local coffee shop with a book or a sketch pad in her hands in one of the comfy chairs by the window. She always orders an iced caramel shaken espresso, no matter the temperature outside.
GALAS: As the daughter of a prominent public figure, Margot is often forced to attend fancy events, galas, charities, political events, etc, despite her dislike for them. More often than not, she can be found looking for a quiet space to read or sneak off to.}           ^STATS

^{( fandom au )
           SUMMARY}
_{Coming from a family of born wolves, Margot has always been privy to the supernatural. Margot had a deep understanding of her wolf because it had grown up alongside her; growing and changing as she did. As a member of the Barnes pack, the largest one in Brooklyn, Margot was almost always surrounded by pack - from her family to her friends at school - she had a constant sense of security. She also understood the importance of keeping the supernatural as a whole a secret.
Margot knew her parents were an odd pair, and yet, they worked in tandem in ways outsiders just didn’t understand. Her Grandma was the reigning alpha of the Barnes pack, and her Ada was the beta just under her. Which was why everyone was surprised when he started seeing her Dad, an ex hunter turned FBI agent. Instead of fighting against the supernatural, he used his job to help keep their secret safe. As such, Margot grew up knowing and understanding the best of both their worlds. She was well versed in pack dynamics, and had a full understanding of hunters and the tactics they used ( and how to avoid them ).It wasn’t until midway through her sophomore year in high school that her Dad got reassigned to Beacon Hills. There had been an uptick in violent crimes that were entirely too unexplainable to be strictly human. Her Dad had been sent out there to get a handle on things, but his true intent was to help the Sheriff’s station cover up the supernatural aspects of the deaths. Despite not wanting to be separated from their pack, Margot went with him, because her Dad wasn’t just pack, but family. Her Ada split time between visiting them and maintaining his position and duties with the pack at home.Originally, she thought the relocation would be temporary, but she soon realized that Beacon Hills had more secrets than it knew what to do with, and they were in desperate need of their help. Despite her reservations, Margot worked equally as hard to find a place with the McCall pack, not wanting to be without one when she’d grown up with one her entire life. While her Dad worked to help keep the supernatural a secret ( and the community members safe ), Margot helped fight off the supernatural threats that kept popping up.}           ^TIMELINE
_{The beginning of this verse is set right between season two. Margot arrived towards the tail end events of season one, but hasn’t actually been on anyone’s radar until the start of season two events. Though it kicks off in season two, this verse can be set anywhere after season two. I have not seen the movie, nor do I plan to anytime soon, so that canon does not apply to this verse.}           ^HEADCANONS_{1) Margot had an easy time learning to control her shifts, and it’s mainly because her Ada taught her more than a few grounding techniques. Her go to is repeating “quiet the mind, quiet the beast” as a mantra, but if that isn’t enough she counts her breathing, taps her fingers together to the beat she wants her heart to rest at, clenches and unclenches her fists to a steady rhythm. Pain is usually only a last resort to use as a grounding technique.2) Despite wanting to make friends, Margot isn’t very good at it. She’s never needed to in the past, and it makes it hard for her to do so in the present. Still, despite her sometimes sarcastic or blunt approach, Margot genuinely wants to help, and she’s knowledgeable enough to be useful in a fight.
Due to her Dad’s upbringing, Margot is distinctly familiar with weapons that hunter’s use. She knows how to use them, how to disarm them, and what to look for in a fight. Instead of shying away from his past, her Dad used it to help keep her safer.3) As a beta, her eyes are gold when she shifts. Though on the smaller side in stature, she’s great in a fight because of her training and agility. She might not pack the most powerful punch, but she can run her enemy into exhaustion and take them down with a few well placed jabs.}           ^HOOKS
_{THE STATION: Margot often helps restock the Sheriff’s station with coffee/treats for her deputy father and can often be found manning the coffee pots. She is also an adept resource for people needing a friendly face while detained.
NEW YORK Margot grew up in New York as part of one of the oldest, most established packs in the area. She has an intimate knowledge of both the area as well as the old politics!
SCHOOL: Margot attends Beacon Hills High School and has done so from the end of her sophomore year all the way through to graduation. She joined the cross country team junior year and the lacrosse team that spring.}           ^STATS
