During Redshift, Michael and Jeremy rekindle their friendship, which is a driving plot point throughout the story. Jeremy's near-death may be the catalyst to unlocking Michael's powers.

As we find out in Stormcatchers, Jeremy became best friends with Dustin Kropp before the latter went missing. He and Dustin are the main characters in this side-story.

Personality

Brooke is a bright, outgoing face on Blackwell campus who proudly beats to her own drum. To most, she's very friendly and nice, and usually willing to lend a hand if needed. To others, however, she's not afraid to speak her mind and stand her ground— usually to those who hang around Chloe Valentine.

In middle-school, however, Brooke was like a completely different person. She was typically very meek, and let others tell her what to wear or say or who to befriend. Despite being Chloe's right-hand woman, she would usually go along with Chloe's whims, since Chloe was the quartet's Queen Bee.

Once Chloe excommunicated her, she was left floundering. It took time, but she built up her self-confidence again, as well as her sense of self outside of a rigid, colour-based group of four. She explored fashions she'd been too afraid to try, befriended people she'd longed to know, and opened herself to new opportunities she hadn't gotten to spare a second glance to.

By Michael's arc in Life is Weird, Brooke has gone through a majority of her "magical girl character development" and believes she's ready to take on the world with him and their friends.

Appearance

By 2017, Brooke is finally starting to find a style that she wants to wear, instead of things other people tell her to.

Life is Weird

Brooke's current looks are much brighter and different than when she was in grade school. Her main outfit consists of white converse with no-show socks, dark blue mid-thigh leggings, and a pink and white shirt that says "fro•yolo" on it, covered by a yellow suspender-skirt. She wears pink puffball earrings, a silver ring on her right hand, and pink nail polish.

Brooke has dark blue-grey eyes, and dyed brown hair with golden roots starting to come in. She usually keeps her hair up in space buns, with bangs covering her forehead swept to the side, and two strands in front of her ears a la Sailor Moon.

Ripple Effect

Middle-school Brooke had long, straightened, blonde hair with no bangs, usually tucked out of her face. Her main outfit consisted of a pink converse, khaki skinny jeans, and a red shirt covered by a long and chunky yellow cardigan.

Chemistry

In the side-story Chemistry, Brooke wears WIP.

Stormchasers

Brooke's clothing style seems to be midway between her comfortable and quirky current style and her modest middle-school style. She has no sweater, but instead wears a pink, short-sleeved shirt with a frozen yogurt design on top of a long-sleeved yellow sweatshirt. She wears blue jeans, has new pink converse, and has started dying her hair brown. She usually wears her hair in a high ponytail during this time, and pushes her bangs to the opposite direction.

Vortex Club timeline

In the Vortex Club alternate timeline Michael jumps into, Brooke seems very lonely. Michael never interacts with her during his experience in this timeline, but from his observations, she keeps to herself and isn't nearly as outgoing as she should be at Blackwell.

Relationships

Friends

Jeremy Heere - In grade school before coming out, Brooke had a comp-het "crush" on Jeremy. She thought he was "kind of cute, in a pathetic sort of way". Because of Chloe, she doesn't act on this until much later, even though she's had her sapphic breakthrough by now. She and Jeremy "date" for about a day, before she decides she is definitely a lesbian, and thanks Jeremy anyway. They remain good friends to this day, and Brooke calls him "Jerry" and "Jerebear" despite his feeble protests.

Michael Mell - When Michael returns in 2017 to attend Blackwell Academy, she immediately takes interest in him. She remembers Jeremy and Michael used to hang out as kids, so if Jeremy is a good dude, Michael must be too. So she befriends him, and they click instantly. Neither Jeremy nor Michael realise she's friends with the both of them until 10 October 2017, when she joins the two at the White Diamond Diner.

Amet consectetuer adipiscing elit, lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetuer adipiscing elit.

Jake Dillinger - Brooke and Jake used to be friends in middle school, though they were never very close as Jake was Rich's second-in-command, and she was Chloe's. After they all enter Blackwell for high school, Brooke finds out that Jake is no longer a part of their group, what is now known as the Vortex Club. She tentatively starts talking to him more, and they're starting to become good friends.

Madeline Martin - Brooke always ignored Madeline in middle school, as Chloe told her to. Once cut off from Chloe, Brooke decides to talk to Madeline herself to see why Chloe hated her so much. Like with Jake, the two girls become friends.

Enemies

Chloe Valentine - Brooke and Chloe used to be friends in grade school. They were nearly inseparable, in a different way than Rich and Chloe.On Thursday afternoons, right after school, Brooke and Chloe would go to the nearest Pinkberry frozen yogurt shop to do homework together and gossip. This was a sacred routine to them that could only be cancelled by family emergencies. If one was sick and wasn't at school, the other would typically bring the fro-yo to her house. One Thursday, Brooke comes out to Chloe as "interested in girls" and "maybe a Lesbian?", which causes Chloe to lash out out because of her homophobic upbringing and internalised homophobia. Chloe casts Brooke out of her social group, and stops being friends with her altogether. Brooke is left on her own, alone, and becomes a social exile to those who uphold the Middle School Hierarchy.

Rich Goranski - Brooke used to be friends with Rich, until Chloe excommunicated her from what would become Blackwell's Vortex Club.

River Jefferson - Lorem ipsum dolor sit, amet consectetuer adipiscing elit. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetuer adipiscing elit; lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetuer adipiscing elit, lorem ipsum dolor sit.

Amet consectetuer adipiscing elit, lorem ipsum dolor sit amet consectetuer adipiscing elit.

Chloe Valentine's parents - Chloe's parents used to think Brooke was alright, if a bit air-headed. When Chloe severed the friendship, they didn't ask questions. They don't know she's gay, and it's going to stay that way, as they are homophobic.

Romantic

Chloe Valentine - Before the disasterous coming out to her, Brooke had a small crush on Chloe. Brooke thought it was just admiration and platonic feelings for a while, but upon realising it was a crush, she got nervous. She figured Chloe likely wouldn't feel the same and kept the information a secret. She didn't expect Chloe to react so badly to her coming out as sapphic though, and the abrupt cut-off soured her crush. It persisted for several months still, though it was waning, and eventually, Brooke got over it. She still plans to never tell Chloe about the crush.

Jeremy Heere - Brooke's crush on Jeremy was likely comphet. Chloe had a sort of crush on him when Brooke was still a part of her clique, and Brooke mirrored the feelings as an involuntary cover. Brooke never acted on these feelings towards Jeremy considering Chloe was Queen Bee, though after Brooke's excommunication, she pursued him. The two went on a single date, a day at most, and this solidified for Brooke that she not only did not have a crush on Jeremy, but that she was, in fact, a lesbian.
