Haha, she's nothing like Belle in my head... :-p

Fixed it, I was editing Kacie's profile rather than starting from scratch since they had many similarities.

I figured out a little more about Lucie, Kacie thinks she's just lounging around the house all day doing nothing, but really she has a part time job working at an art studio which she uses to pay for a part time uni course in photography.

Lucie's behaviour explained:

It's about being lonely, after Eric died, Kacie never bothered with her and her parents were pretty messed up so she was kind of left to her own devices. She wants Kacie to like her so much and in a way it boiled over to school and life, she wants people to like her so much that she misreads signals and flirts with anything that moves.

It's sort of a backlash of Kacie's reaction to Eric's death.

The only problem with Lucie is she doesn't know when to let it go and she pushes the boundaries a little far, she jumps into bed with people far too early...but with her bad experience with a guy years back it's odd because for some reason she still keeps going back for more.

She's trying to be with so many people in the hope that the memory of them all can wipe out the memory of her being raped.
