Biography[]

Keaton School of the Arts[]

At the Keaton School of the Arts, Alya became part of the Music Program. During "The First Day" Alya was caught in the hallway by Julie Maslany, who mentioned how horrified Alya looked. Alya was very flustered during much of her first day at school, being late to class and having to perform in return, after she talked to Jax Gardner. When another girl in class, Bianca, mocked Alya, she was too flustered to perform. Later, Alya talked to Denzel, and then sat down at a lunch table with Miles. Miles encouraged her to sing, which she did. However, Bianca made snide comments about Alya from another table, and Alya left. Later, Alya called her mom, saying that she wanted to leave the school. Miles was eavesdropping, and told Alya that he didn't think she was going to leave, mentioning her talent for singing. Alya later went back to class and sang, smiling at Miles during part of her song.

During "Groups of Two" she was in class, along with Bianca, with Scarlett as their mentor. Scarlett was giving them advice on auditions, and she had a mock audition with Bianca and Alya. When Bianca treated Alya harshly, and Alya was too flustered to sing, Scarlett stood up for Alya. After class, before Alya left, Scarlett spoke with her and revealed something about Bianca. Later, Alya confronted Bianca in the hallway and mentioned Bianca's mom, who was involved in casting, and Alya mentioned that she "must have talent too" because she was accepted to Keaton, like Bianca. Then, she left smiling.

Description[]

Personality[]

Alya is shy, and often gets nervous and flustered. She is sensitive, as shown when Bianca insulted her several times, however she can be stubborn and defensive, like when Miles claimed she wouldn't leave the school. As Alya's character grows, she becomes slightly conceited. She is helped to get out of her shell and express herself anyway she can. She becomes more confident as the show progresses.

Physical Appearance[]

Alya has blond hair that goes to around her shoulders. She also has pale blue eyes. She is medium height for an average teenage girl. She is mostly seen with vintage, youth-y clothes that are brown, orange, yellow, pink-grey but her style changes more in season 2 as she now wears modern girly clothes but still with an old touch.

Alya and Miles became friends on the first day when she sat with him at lunch, and encouraged her to sing after she had trouble in class. When Alya considered leaving the school, Miles claimed that she wouldn't, mentioning her musical talent. Alya doesn't end up leaving, and sings in class. When Alya sees Bianca flirting with Miles she is annoyed. When picking partners Miles chose Alya, however she is stressed with Miles' lack of effort to put any actual meaning into their song. After trying out Bianca's advice she believes she ruined her chances with him, but when Miles sings his song about life she believes it is for her. Alya asked Miles out while he was trying to ask Julie out because she believes that he was going to ask her out. He said yes, while they were about to go on the date Julie comes over and tells him that she would love to hang out. Miles say yes and immediately regrets it as he said it right in front of Alya. At first it seemed like Alya didn't notice, but in her voice over she said she was never going to talk to him again. She is currently still mad at him. When she chooses to leave Keaton, Miles tells her that she's the reason he opened up about his sickness, and he doesn't know what to say to make her stay, but he hopes she does. Later on though, Miles and Alya breakup due to Miles almost kissing Julie Maslany. When Miles had told her about him almost kissing Julie she realizes that she should focus more on her career. Later in the second season's finale they reconcile, with a kiss, after a long year of tension.
