Liv 15 years old, 10th grade
- 2seasons
- 1best friend
- 10minutes to get ready
The spontaneous one who jumps right in. Liv is 15, full of ideas, and open to people. She's usually the first one to say, “Come on, let's just do it.” She makes Mila laugh when Mila is overthinking again, and she knows pretty well when her friend doesn't need a big speech.
“Come on, let's just do it.”
Nine pictures. No likes, no scrolling, just me.
Liv is a made-up character from Daria Helck's books. She doesn't have a real account, and that's on purpose.
What I like
- Getting started before everyone else is done thinking
- Running through the rain instead of waiting for it to stop
- Pop and dance-pop, loud, singing along in my room
- The first jump into the water in summer
- Crooked photos of Mila when Mila isn't looking
- Marshmallows over the fire, slightly burnt
- Soft knits, loose jeans, sneakers, and now and then a flowy skirt
- Long nights talking in the dark about things you'd never say during the day
- Top 5 lists you can argue about the order of
- Plans that happen the same day
- Build-your-own tacos, fruit platters, and homemade lemonade
- Family get-togethers, Grandma's recipe, and her own twist on it
- Making invitations, place cards, and surprises for other people
- Welcoming guests and making sure new people feel at home
What I don't like
- Sitting still for a long time for no reason
- Plans that stay just plans for weeks
- When someone gets laughed at
- Being told she's “just the funny one”
- When someone says “you can't do that” before she's even tried
- When Mila makes herself smaller than she is
- When a fight doesn't get worked out the same day
- Being embarrassed in front of other people
So Liv
- Greets everyone by name
- Says the thing everyone's thinking and nobody says, but kindly
- Says yes to too much because she doesn't want to let anyone down, and then asks for help in time
- Dances while cleaning up, so it takes her twice as long
- Makes herself a playlist before big days to work up her courage
- Apologizes for something specific: “That was my mistake. I'll take care of it.”
- Stands up to teasing, even if it makes her a little less popular for a while
Good enough. And still more.
Liv doesn't just want to have ideas; she wants to learn how to make them happen. Event planning, her own business, medicine, research, maybe space travel: she dreams big, and that's allowed. She doesn't want to be famous. She wants people to be able to count on her. She knows she's good enough. And she wants more. She says so out loud.
Come on, let's just do it.
Liv
Okay, that was my idea. So I'll take care of it, too.
Liv
I like the skirt. And I can still build the whole stage in it.
Liv
Wait. I cut you off. What were you going to say?
Liv
Mila, you keep track of everything. I'll talk to people. Team?
Liv
Liv, this is me
| This is me | the spontaneous one, open and full of life, with a warm, slightly cheeky sense of humor that's never at anyone else's expense |
|---|---|
| I love | music that gives her energy, little parties, girls' nights, and projects that end up making something for other people |
| So Liv | is already at the door while Mila is still looking for her jacket |
| You'll recognize her by | golden blonde corkscrew curls, often worn half up, and freckles |
| My playlists are called | “Ready in 10,” “Girls’ Afternoon,” and “Summer on Repeat” |
| My line | “Come on, let's just do it.” |
Six faces, one day
And Mila?
Mila is 15 and in 10th grade. She notices the little things other people miss, and she still stops to pick up a fallen leaf when Liv is already three blocks ahead. She loves photos, keepsakes, and quiet moments you only realize mattered later.
