Evan Butchman

Unpaid
Role assigned to: deleted86718

Evan is a dry, sarcastic cynical teenager that never fails to see the worst in people he hates and the...mildly decent out of people he actually likes. He's pretty much the 'Straight Man' of the group, almost always responding to everything with a sarcastic quip or snide remark, and as such has won 'Most Sarcastic' in his grade in the Yearbook for three years straight. His voice is kind of high pitched, but not nasally. If you need a voice reference, watch C Students on YouTube and listen to August, or watch Camp Camp and listen to Max. 

  • You know those old high school movies where everyone's divided into cliques and social groups? You know, nerds, jocks, preps, all that? Contrary to popular belief, that's not as unrealistic as you may think. Sure, it's exaggerated in the movies, everything is. But to act like there isn't at least a LITTLE bit of a social hierarchy is dumb. People probably think that 'cause the people that think that often grew up in generations where self expression was generally frowned upon and automatically labelled "Satanic".

  • *sarcastically* Gee, it's almost as if humans are inherently social creatures and expecting them to sit down and shut up at the sound of a loud ringing noise is a ridiculous expectation. 

  • Wow, my mashed potatoes are only slightly covered in rat fur. It's an improvement.

Role assigned to: Mandy M Bailey

Penny is the school's resident butch, and mechanic. Fixing vehicles is her life. Well, right now mechanics and her girlfriend Cherry have dual custody of her life. She can almost match Evan in terms of sarcasm and dry wit, though she's not sarcastic nearly as often. 

  • Well, that's your problem. Your engine's busted. Don't worry, I can get ya a new one, as long as you're willing to wait a few weeks. 

  • Ah, I think I found what's wrong, bubbo. You're using an Electric Motor for something that works best with an internal combustion engine. 

  • ....What? Just 'cause I'm a mechanic I can't play with Barbies too?

Role assigned to: Mandy M Bailey

Cherry is possibly the most optimistic and feminine girl in Van Gogh High, which of course surprises many when they learn she's dating the tomboyish and anything-but-feminine Penny Dropsocket. She's always cheerful, and always smiling. Sometimes some would say the smile is fake, but more often than not its genuine happiness. 

  • Aww, thanks, Penny! Sorry I couldn't get you anything.....SURPRISE! I got you that wrench you wanted when we passed that hardware store last week! You really thought I'd skip our anniversary? Especially when its on my favorite holiday? You know how much I love Valentines Day! 

  • Penny..? You okay..? You've been in your room all day long...I can buy you another dog if you want! (...) Okay, yeah, you're right. Too soon. 

  • Oh god, this had milk in it! I'm lactose intolerant! Where's the bathroom?

Copper is basically every annoying younger sibling character rolled into one. He's loud, obnoxious, never shuts up, and is in general just a nuisance. I imagine him sounding like the original Ben 10.. 

  • Lemme know where you and your girlfriend are going tonight so I don't go. I don't wanna catch double cooties! 

  • *teasingly* Ooh, you're gonna smooch her aren't you?

  • Oh please, it's just a dumb movie! How scary can it be?

Larry isn't your stereotypical redneck. Sure, he's just as loud and rambunctious as one, but he's actually a really sweet kid when you start to get to know him. He's not exactly popular among the school, but he frankly doesn't care. He's perfectly happy doing what he loves. 

  • I ain't done nothin' wrong! It was those durn punk kids again! 

  • I done did some thinkin', Evan, and...I-I think I wanna ask 'er out. But, I-I don't know the first thing 'bout talkin' to girls. I'm about as clueless as an armadilluh in an ice patch. 

  • YEEEEHAWW!! Them there  city slickers say monster truckin' ain't a sport, but I sure just proved them wrong, yes sir I did. YEEE-HOOO!!

Soon  Yi Kim's family moved to America  from North Korea (thanks to being very stealthy about it) when she was around three, and because of this she's been fascinated with art ever since. Her home country didn't allow for much artistic expression, but after she gained the freedom of America she's been doing nothing BUT artistic expression outside of schoolwork. For a voice reference listen to Candy from Gravity Falls. 

  • *under her breath* Why do Americans think all Asians are good at math..? *louder* Go bug someone else about Ms. Buskley's homework, I'm practicing my art right now! 

  • Please don't be an F....Please don't be an F....Oh! A C+! Yess!!

  • *sounding close to crying* Evan, you don't understand...That art fair meant the world to me...And I...And I had to miss it, because of a STUPID dentist's appointment! That was a once in a lifetime chance, Evan..A once in a lifetime chance. I blew it.

Role assigned to: LynneB

Aanisah is a Muslim woman who came to America to escape her oppressive society, and she cares very deeply for her son, Evan. She used to be just as snarky as him, but age has mellowed her out a bit, though she still throws out the occasional snide remark. She struggles to be a single mother in a society that's almost as against her as her old one, but she refuses to give up. 

  • Evan! Your friends are here! 

  • Evan, is something wrong? You've hardly touched your Shanklish...Are you going through another 'edgy' phase, as the kids would call it? You know, when I was a child we just called it a rebellious phase. You kids and your made up slang..

  • *in response to the Principal's question* ...No, I'm sorry Mr. Buttstick. The fact is Evan's father and I had a divorce about five or so years ago, and the only male relatives he has that a re still alive are still in the old country.

Role assigned to: EJW Studios LLC

Principal Buttstick is a massive curmudgeon, and hates children. Why he decided to take the job of a Principal, who knows? Maybe some bizarre power fantasy? 

  • Well, maybe Evan would learn some manners if there was a proper male figure on his house. Surely there's gotta be ONE. Father, uncle, brother..?

  • Hey, uh, Penny. If you help fix my car, I'll let you skip an entire day of school, you choose the date.

  • *chuckle* Oh, kids and their dreams. They think they can be different, that they can be individuals. Ha! That's ridiculous! If we let anyone here actually develop critical thinking skills they're gonna start to realize the flaws in our public education system. And then they'll be demanding we treat the art kids as good as we treat the jocks! And then eventually they'll start wearing shirts with skulls on them, that'll slowly transition to shirts with guns! Any form of self expression is evil! You wanna know why the excuses we make for banning the things we ban are so poorly thought out and flimsy when looked at with the TINIEST bit of common sense? They're not meant as justifications, they're meant as cover-ups; ways to disguise the actual truth that I hate seeing kids enjoying themselves! Back when I was a kid we hated our  lives and wished we were dead, AND WE LIKED IT!

Christina is a Christian, and probably one of the nicest people you could find at Van Gogh High.  She solves almost all of her problems with praying and Faith

  • You think just because I'm a Christian I'm going to hate LGBT people or atheists or whatever? That is very, very wrong. The Book of Matthew 22:34-40. 


    "But when the Pharisees had heard that he had put the Saducces to silence, they were gathered together. That one of them, which was a layer, asked him a question, tempting him, and saying, 'Master, which is the great commandment in the law?' Jesus said unto him, 'Thou shalt love the Lord Thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it. Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thy love thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and prophets." 


    See? You can't love someone if you don't want them doing what makes them happy! 

  • Oh, this math is just so darn hard! *small gasp* Dear Lord, please excuse my usage of such vile language. Amen. 

  • *Weakly, dying of cancer* I-I'm scared...But I know I'm going to Heaven to be with Him, my name's written in the Lamb's Book of Life. Please...Evan..sing with me just this once...*start singing Amazing Grace*

Patricia Roman

Role assigned to: Idjits_and_angels

Patricia Roman, at first glance, seems like your typical popular girl. She acts bratty, she acts mean, she acts like a bit of a jerk. Until you really get to know her. Once you crack down that shell, she's actually a bit of a dork. She's super into comics, video games, and movies. But she never tells anyone, because her popularity would be absolutely destroyed. When she's acting like a ditz, use an over the top ditzy voice, and when she's talking as who she actually is make it sound passionate and excitable.

  • Oh my god, you idiot, Batman is DC and Iron Man is-I mean, uh....is Captain America the guy with the claws?

  • *nervous* Oh man, I hope nobody sees through my clever disguise. I'd be toast if my clique found me at the comics store..

  • Oh, this is just like that issue of Captain Cosmic where he has to save the day with a brain-twisting puzzle instead of bashing things over the head! (...) Ummm...O-Obviously my little brother told me about it! The little brat's all over those things. (...) Yeah, I do TOO have a little brother! You just never see him1

Ms. Etcherson is the art teacher, and she rivals Evan for snarkiest in the school, and also one of the only two actually sane staff members. She's also very compassionate and kind (when she's not snarking). She's actually a male-to-female transgender, and is fully out of the closet. Ther

  • I didn't even say anything about there being more than two genders but okay. 

  • I am well aware I'm one of the only mentally stable adults in this hellhole, thank you. 

  • Oh wow, great job as usual, Patricia! Though, I'd like it if you branched out a little more. Most of your drawings have the art style and coloring method of those old Golden Age comics.  It's not a bad style to have, I certainly like it, but I'd also like you to  branch out a tad more.

Role assigned to: EJW Studios LLC

Mr. Killjoy was a drill instructor before becoming an English teacher, and boy does it show. He's constantly shouting and screaming, swearing at students for even breathing too loudly., and generally running his classroom like a boot camp. He's actually a genderbent exaggeration of how I see my real life English teacher.

  • WHAT?!?  DO I HEAR....BASIC HUMAN INTERACTION?!? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!! YOU ARE WORSE THAN SATAN!! GO TO THE OFFICE AND THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE DONE, THINKING YOU CAN CONTINUE A CONVERSATION FROM LUNCH. DIDN'T YOU HEAR THE BELL?!

  • WHY ARE YOU SMILING?1? THIS IS A SCHOOL!! IF YOU SMILE THAT MEANS YOU ARE A BAD PERSON!! ARE YOU A BAD PERSON?! HUH? OF COURSE YOU'RE A BAD PERSON, YOU'RE SMILING!

  • What was that? Huh? Am I goin' crazy? I KNOW I HEARD ONE O' YOU DONKEY-FUCKING CHICKENSHIT SISSY FUCKSTICKS LAUGHING!! IN MY CLASSROOM THERE IS TO BE NO LAUGHING WHATSO-FUCKING-EVER! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR, MAGGOTS? YOU ARE LESS THAN THE DIRT ON MY SHOE!! YOU ARE LESS THAN THE LEFTOVER CRUMBS OF DOG FOOD IN A DOG BOWL! YOU ARE LESS THAN THE TINIEST OF SINGLE CELLED UNIFORMS UNTIL YOU LEARN THAT YOU MUST SUBMIT TO YOURSELF TO MY WILL AT ALL TIMES IN MY CLASSROOM!

Role assigned to: EJW Studios LLC

"Greg" is an elderly janitor not many people know anything about. Some say he's the leader of a cult, others say he's a paranormal entity. Nobody ever sees him sees the school, and he almost always speaks in angry grumbling (Though he does occasionally speak up from time to time), and if you were to look at all the class photos since the school's founding you'll find him, the same as he is now. Nobody even knows his real name, everybody just calls him "Greg". 

  • *mumble angrily about Jews*

  • *mumble angrily about Obama*

  • Watch where your throwin' these bottles, damn kids..*proceed to mumble angrily about kids giving you work to do*

Ms. Buskly is a match teacher, and she's usually pretty nice, but she's OBSESSED with math. Almost everything she does and says is related to or about math. For her voice I imagine and old  British lady. 

  • Alright, children, settle down.. We've got some math to learn! Isn't that fun?

  • A game....without math?! What is this blasphemy?!

  • Why are none of you excited to play math games based on games that have no math involved whatsoever?! That's the best kind of game!

Scraps

Role assigned to: Ben Fox

Scraps is a young homeless boy, who's inherently messy nature and playful personality drove his parents figuratively crazy. They dropped him off at the nearest place they could find, where the owner of the junkyard took pity on him and gave him a bed to sleep in. Still in the junkyard, obviously. 

As mentioned before, Scraps is a inherently playful and messy person. He's also a merchant, in that he sells scrap metal and nifty little  knickknacks from the junkyard to anyone who asks. For ten dollars an item, of course. In  terms of his voice, I'd imagine something laid back and somewhat high pitched, but not really all that higher pitched. Try to aim for a Phil Solomon as Craig Williams type of voice.  

  • *In a stereotypical fantasy king voice* Hail and well met, weary traveler. Welcome to the tribe of the junk people! *in his normal voice* Nah, I'm just messin' with ya. What can I do for ya, Penny? 

  • See, this is a perfectly good couch. Who would throw away a couch like this? It's practically mint condi-*the couch falls apart*....Oh, nevermind. Yeah, I can see why they tossed it. 

  • Pffft! HAHAHAHAHAHA!! Good one, Penny! Asking about my parents like that. You know they dropped me in this literal dump. The only parental figure I got that actually likes and respects me as a person is the owner of this place, Skipp.
