1. For the first time, every house in
Deasil Street is now occupied.
So, throughout episode five
there will be little recaps of each
households backstory; just to
remind ourselves who’s who,
and what they’re about.

2. The houses on the Street were numbered in the order they were built, which explains
their unsymmetrical number system. Number 7 was always planned to be at the end
of the street, with the others built to join it to the main road. It predates the rest by
decades, and has always been owned by the Vickers Family.

3. The Darkstone Household
Trinity Darkstone
Career criminal Trinity or ‘The Balanced Stone’ moved herself
and her twin to Appaloosa to prey on the up and coming town
and to escape a couple of sticky situations developing
elsewhere…
Despite her day job, she tries to make her ‘public’ face known
as a good citizen. She is a genuinely nice person, if a little
emotionally closed. The full back story of the twins is unknown.
She has been in a relationship with Crime Boss Edward Poeson A.K.A The Poet for
some time. She has recently used her skills to track him down and force him to let
her as fully into his life as she allows him into hers. Love in a den of thieves cannot
be said to be easy.
Befriended her next-door neighbour Megan Bailey after seeing something of
herself in the child, genuinely likes her.
On friendly terms with most of the Street, bar the Vickers family, whom she has
also anonymously blackmailed.

4. The Darkstone Household
Belladonna Darkstone
Belladonna is not currently employed, nor has she ever been.
Instead, she puts her time and energy into managing the
household bills, shopping, cooking and cleaning. She is an
excellent cook, and an accomplished pianist – but no one is
aware of this fact. She actively hides her culinary skills from
Trinity when she cooks her meals.
She is the principle caregiver to their cat, Jerix.
She isn’t in a relationship, and has no friends other than her
sister.
So far, she has managed to resist her sisters attempts to get her to socialise. She
rarely leaves the house, and seems happy with her life as it is. The only crack
that ever showed was when Trinity and Edward got together. For a moment, she
seemed jealous.

5. Bernice had planned to spend the
day looking for jobs, but it’s her
first day, she can afford to have a
bit of fun first.

6. So she dressed up and headed out to check out the
local nightlife. She started in the little pub she had
been to with Teresa once or twice, and warmed up
flirting with the barman.
Soon though, she was on to the classier joints. She
charmed her way into the VIP areas and partook in
everything there was to partake in. Whether it was
safe or not…

7. Ambrose had been invited, but she preferred
to stay at home; and wasn’t in the least bit
upset at being left alone. She was such an
easy character, it didn’t really cross her mind
it was a bit rude of Bernice to disappear their
first proper evening as housemates.

8. Ambrose didn’t usually get upset by anything. She was so easygoing
people had to prompt her to realise when she was being taken
advantage of. Some thought she was just dumb, but her musical ability
suggested otherwise. In essence, she just thought everyone was as nice
and content as she was, naïve perhaps or optimistic rather than stupid.

9. It was the end of a very
heavy night for Bernice. She
was so far gone she didn’t
realise someone was tailing
her on her way home.

10. It wasn’t until she
got home and a
burglar pushed
past her through
the door she
realised she’d been
followed. Luckily a
policeman had
followed her
follower and
apprehended them
red-handed.

11. She kept it together enough to
thank the policeman, and ask for
his number…
She didn’t get it, and the moment
he was gone she crashed out on
the sofa, dead to the world.

12. One afternoon, Trinity finds her chance to put
her theory to the test. Allain had run a bit late
getting to the Bailey’s house, and Megan had
hung out with Trinity until he’d arrived.
Meeting him face to face, she was certain he
was Edwards brother.

13. She followed him home on
her bike, it was the one she
usually used for work when
what she was stealing could
fit in a bag or a pocket. Silent,
and less conspicuous than a
car, Allain shouldn’t notice
her pursuit.

14. His house wasn’t what she
expected. It was completely
nondescript. Perfect for a career
criminal. She liked her house
though, the way it was keyed in to
her and her sisters characters. This
was without soul.

15. Allain opened the
door, surprised to
see her. She must
not have set any
alarm bells
ringing in his
head. Perhaps
he’d forgotten his
house was meant
to be a total
secret – no
visitors. As it was,
Trinity pressed for
the location of his
brother.

16. Edward heard the commotion from
upstairs, and called her up. He allowed
Trinity to vent her spleen at him in one
massive rant, part of him accepting that
he had it coming.

17. When Trinity had finished expressing her hurt, how
distrusted she’d felt, how unloved he began to explain
himself.
He was a long term professional criminal, who had gone
by many names. He’d only decided to come to Appaloosa
when guardianship of his brother had fallen to him. He
was uncomfortable using his real name, and was doing
whatever he could to keep his brother safe from those
who wanted him arrested… or worse.
He was sorry for keeping her at
arms length, truly. It was taking
some getting used to living by
normal rules. Including how to
have a normal relationship.
He does love her.

18. His declaration of
love catches Trinity
by surprise. All is
forgiven, his
explanation
accepted. Because
she loves him too.
