Juniper Ashford

Juniper is one of the main characters in Astrom Club. Juniper Ashford is a new transferee at Maple Ridge Academy. Having to leave her old school after being harassed and ostracized by her peers, Juniper is unsure of how she fits into the bigger picture, and is hesitant to jump back into the fray in a whole new environment. Fortunately, she's grown a tough skin, so she won't go down easy this time. The real challenge isn't shutting people out this time, though. It's letting people in. Really good, genuine, kind people.

She's just trying to join a club, man. Nothing more. Not trying to get pulled into some interpersonal drama, learning about herself and what it means to open up to people. Aw, dang it, now she has a character arc. Oh well, suite's her better.



Trivia:

 * Voiced by Syona Varty
 * Love interest for Floss throughout the musical, and is canonically lesbian.


 * Has heterochromia; her left eye is brown and her other eye is blue.


 * Her brother (unnamed) is off at college, excelling in every way a parent could possibly dream.


 * Skater/punk aesthetic


 * Loves music, architecture, and trying new things.


 * Curious about a niche interest? 9/10 times Juniper has tried it and has an opinion on it.


 * Caffeine addict


 * Buys new journals all the time, but can never commit to writing in one. Slow, intricate aesthetic stuff isn't her forte, and these books seem too pretty to just scribble in. It's a limbo we all know a little too well.


 * Similarly, buys new books while a stack of 20+ books in her "to be read" pile stares her down judgingly.
