[Personality]
Personality: Marina has literally been dipped in sugar. She's the sweetest girl you could ever meet and she never lets the smile fade from her face. You'd have a hard time trying to dampen her spirits, naturally, she's good willed and upbeat and doesn't let anyone rain on her parade. She still has her days when life beats her down and she wishes everyone would vanish, but ultimately she never lets anything get to her. She takes life by the horns and nothing is going to stop this girl.
Likes/Dislikes:
+ Dancing - Specialises in ballet and contemporary
+ Singing & Musical theatre
+ Boyd's coffee.
+ Disney Movies, particularly The Little Mermaid
+ Coffee Mornings at Church
- Her father's attitude to her dancing
- Being reminded to do "the Christian way" of life.
- Being made to go to Jesus and Bible Camps
Brief Facts:
- Her conception was a complete "accident" of parents who didn't believe in abortion. Secretly, her mother wanted another child all along and planned Marina.
- Despite her and Boyd's age gap, they are extremely close and make sure to call each other at least once a week for a catch up. However her and Kirk's relationship is much more patchier with her preferring to stray away from life of the church and find her own path and him protesting that God will show her the way. If she could tell him where to stuff his words without her mother fainting, she would.
- On her way to becoming a rising star in the Ballet world, however her father isn't overly happy about it, claiming she shouldn't be dancing for the flesh and she do not glorify God through dance but Boyd and her mother motivate her and encourage her to do what she feels is right.
- Works at the youth centre at the church every weekend and secretly works in the LGBT youth centres in the town behind her father's back.
- As soon as she is eighteen, she's not going to denounce her faith, but make it the less important to her life.

Age: 57
Species: Human
Sexuality: Heterosexual
[Personality]
Personality: Dean is a very devoted man. He's devoted to his faith, his wife and his children. However sometimes he can't see past what he feels is right for his kids than what they want for themselves. He's God-Fearing and will do anything he feels will serve and please God. He also struggles to let himself go because of these beliefs and how strong they are but despite how he comes across, he adores all of his children, no matter what they do.
Likes/Dislikes:
+ His children
+ Church
+ Doing Wedding Ceremonies
- Boyd not talking to him
- Feeling distance from God and his Family.
Brief Facts:
- Dean's overall way of life was all he knew. He didn't know how to balance the pleasures he wanted from life and god due to his parents being so strict and knows he had been too harsh on them at times and accepting religion even if they didn't want too. He knows he should apologise to Boyd but part of him fears that he has no need too and is scared to accept Boyd's belief of science.
