It is a well-known fact that most of us here at WoP use famous people to represent what our characters look like, aptly named Face Claim, FC for short. But, who really are these people that we associate with our friends, coworkers, and classmates? That will be the main focus of this blog series:

What is up, my dudes and dudettes. It is I, the one and only, Hadrian "Ree/Hannfran/Onion/Hadron/Madrian/YourMom" Montague. Recently (and by that I mean the entirety of this summer), I have been mostly absent from WoP. The reason being the bane of all teens and young adults out there, college, or university if your nasty. And I still am very much busy, and will continue to be until I graduate, but the guilt I feel when I think about how I'm ignoring my responsibilites on WoP have eaten me up. So, to both let ya'll know that I'm alive, and introduce my divine being to the newbies, I have FINALLY done this installation of Unveiling the FC... about my FC!
As the veterans of WoP know, I am one of the beloved boysenberries who don the site with creative and inticing blogs, interesting interviews, and all around more and more beauty. I am forever grateful to my boss, Andreia Caegan, for accepting my sorry behind into the team. I'm also the creative genius behind the very series you are reading right now!
My FC is the forehead god himself, Brendon Urie (you can stop screaming now Min, we all love him). He is the lead singer, and all around the entirety of the band Panic! at the Disco. He has an amazing voice, incredible musical talent, and a fun personality. His career started off early, just before he graduated high school, and currently he has 6 albums released, and he has collabed with other famous names such as Taylor Swift, Lil Dicky, and Travie McCoy. Suffice to say, he'll keep on going, as he's still in his prime. I only wish he'd tour to my country T-T
Panic! is a household name to all the emos who grew up listening to them. But, their more recent albums have had a more punk/pop radio sound, and even though the change was surprising, it was welcome and I just can't get enough of some of their songs. Now usually the next section would be a Q&A, but I can't interview myself now, can I? Instead, I have enlisted the help of my fellow Brendon Urie fanatic, Elmindreda Arkwright!
1. Brendon is a much sought-after guy, you were lucky to grab him for Hadrian! What made you think he'd be perfect for our beloved Ree? I have to be completely honest, I only had one pic of Brendon on my laptop at the time of my account being made, so I just used it, and coincidentally, a random Elmo screeched "OOH BRENDON" when I joined. That was the moment I knew I would have a lot of fun on this site. 2. His popularity seems to have grown quite a fair bit recently despite being around for years. Do you think he sometimes doesn't get the praise he deserves? To be honest, I only caught wind of him when he released 'Death of a Bachelor'. It was almost hand-crafted for my tastes, and I just had to get more, which led me to the wonderful god that is Brendon Urie. And after learning of his history, I felt as if he's reputation is being pigeon-holed to a certain audience, and not being fully appreciated by the rest of the populace. Just my opinion, but you did ask sooo... :[] 3. Do you have a favourite song of or fact about Brendon? Both, actually. My favorite song by him is suprisingly, Crazy=Genius. It was a underrated song from the afformentioned album, and I fell in love with it the instant I heard it, and it only frew on me more and more, to the point where I performed it on my school's talent show 2 years ago. It wasn't any good, but damn did I feel like a legend. That brings me to my 2nd point, I love the fact that some people have no idea who Mr. Urie is, while others practically dribble at the mere mention of his glorious forehead (i'm looking at you Min). Bonus Question. Have you got over the fact that Min and Emi went to see B(Ree)ndon URee together earlier this year yet? (We'd totally have tried to sneak you in.) No, and I probably won't until I see him live for myself. But I appreciate the sentiment, Elmo.
Sweet holy cupcakes, that took way longer than it should've, but I did it, and again, special thanks to Elmindreda for her help. You rock my world! Though never, ever assume I don't like Ree puns ever again. That's the staple of our relationship.
