Members -  Desma and Kasienka (nicknamed "Kas")

Relationship - Roommates / Best friends

Description / Backstory (it's easier to put them in one)- Desma is a former redneck who moved to New York to start a modeling career when her dad mysteriously vanished (they found him a day later with a hangover in a ditch, but Desma had already left town). Poor and without an agent, Desma seduced men into paying for things for her, drinking and partying her days away. Kasienka is from Poland, where her father owns an important business. She's very smart but was raised very sheltered. Her dad sent her to America to make a business deal, and when she failed to make the sale he didn't give her a plane ticket back home. Kas found Desma drunk in a ditch (like father like daughter) and brought her to her hotel room so she would't get killed on the street (and also because she doesn't know better than to not take strangers home).

Six months later, the girls work several jobs each and have an apartment, which is pretty much just a closet with two mattresses in it because they're still broke. Kas is sweet and book smart, but even though she speaks perfect English most pop culture references and slang go over her head, so she's a bit socially awkward. She can get confused easily because she was so sheltered, but she's very curious, so if she doesn't get something she'll try and understand it (aka if there's a "DO NOT TOUCH" sign, she will touch). Desma is sober now, and despite her pretty appearance, she's boyish and sarcastic and a bit blunt. Desma likes hands-on things, like fixing cars or making food or hitting things, and though she's not dumb, she has an act first think later attitude. She is a bit of a flirt, but really the only person she ever hangs out with now is Kas, though their relationship totally not what you're thinking (says Desma).

Physical Description - Desma is tall and has the body of a Victoria's secret model, which made her quite the hot commodity on the farm. She has lightly tanned skin and tons of freckles on her cheeks, shoulders, and chest, with green eyes and killer cheekbones. Her hair is long and honey blonde. Her usual outfit is jeans, boots, and a plaid button-up shirt with a white tank top underneath, sometimes with a cheap greenish bomber jacket on top.

Kasienka is a few inches shorter than Desma and thin, and she's still pretty even if she's not Desma pretty. She's pale with bright blue eyes and big lips. Her hair is a slightly overgrown black pixie cut. Her usual outfit is a white v-neck shirt with a short black shirt and a pair of black and white canvas shoes, because apparently she didn't understand when she was told to wear sensible clothing.
