### Kim Pine: 1992 - 2007

Kim's the only child of her parents. She had a pleasant childhood in spite of her being somewhat neglected by her work-focused parents, mostly due to discovering a passion for retro gaming with her dad's old game consoles and being gifted with a drum set for her eighth birthday.

### Kim Pine: April 19th, 2007

At the age of fourteen, Kim was walking home from band practice when she was struck by a car with a drunk driver behind the wheel. Kim should have died, but fate smiled on her. Kim had a meta-gene which activated in the split-second between Kim's noticing of the speeding vehicle and the impact. Kim was knocked off her feet (and out of her shoes), struck a tree, and proceeded to tumble head over heels down an embankment before she came to a loud stop in a rocky riverbed.

In spite of all that, Kim survived with nothing but torn clothes and the mental trauma to show for what happened to her. By the time Kim climbed back up to the road, the drunk driver's car was gone.

### Kim Pine: 2007 - 2009

Kim was originally enrolled in Benvie Tech which had a special class for Metahumans. After finishing the remainder of her Freshman year at Benvie, her parents thought an all metahuman student body would give Kim a better environment to thrive in. Kim did not agree, but had little choice in the matter. This would strain her relationship with her parents further as they did not care that Kim had made friends at Benvie and even had found her first boyfriend.

According to Kim, she met Scott Pilgrim when the two were paired up for a geography class (Scott insists it was a history assignment). The two grew close. After Scott realized Kim was a drummer, he invited her to join his and Lisa Miller's band. Somewhere in all of this, Scott's empathic powers sunk a psychic anchor in Kim, causing her to experience being in Scott's presence as some sort of a drug. With the willpower of a hormonal teenager, Kim was a victim to these urges.

Kim claims she was so overcome with these feelings for Scott that she ditched school the day of their geography presentation to go to Benvie to break things off with her boyfriend. However, he did not understand what Kim was telling him and refused to believe they were done. In the course of the following argument, Kim says Scott busted in to beat up her ex and Kim's emotions were so overcharged that she could not help herself. She threw herself into Scott and gave him, what she calls, "the fattest, sloppiest kiss imaginable." Just like that, among battered and bruised Benvie Tech students, Scott and Kim became an item.

### Kim Pine: 2009 - Present

Scott and Kim's relationship ended abruptly after Scott's family moved to Maple City. Kim and Lisa remained friends even after their band dissolved and Lisa became more interested in drama. Then after graduation, Lisa's family moved to America. With nothing keeping her in her hometown, and still feeling an urge to be near Scott, Kim decided to buy a bus ticket.

Decidedly not dating Scott again, Kim is happy(?) being his band mate.

### Supplemental Reports

* (*Submitted by T4Teen*) St. Joel's Academy has these notes about Kim's powers: "Miss Pine can lift close to 900 kilograms when properly motivated. She reports being uninjured by collision with a high-speed automobile and jumping off the roof of a six-story building. She also appears to have some slight resistance to illnesses and toxins."
* (*Submitted by T4Teen*) Kim and Scott have a weird relationship, like... so weird. I mean... Let me break this down for you.
	+ Kim and Scott cannot agree how they met. I've seen them argue about this for hours before. It's not pretty. Scott insists it was a history class. Kim says it was geography. Everyone else thinks it's totally not important.
	+ In hindsight, Kim regrets how she and Scott began their relationship. But Scott insists it was romantic.
	+ Kim pines over Scott (no pun intended). She keeps insulting him and his girlfriends. And yet, even when Scott is single, Kim makes no move to reignite their past romance.
	+ Though not a "fan" of Scott's actions (and vocal about it), Kim seems to be his truest "friend" - other than his objectively awesome sister.

## Trivia and Notes

### Trivia

* Kim was Scott's first girlfriend, his longtime friend, and the drummer of Sex Bob-Omb. Kim is known for having a rather cynical view of the world and those around her (including Scott). Like Scott, Kim is also a metahuman. She and Scott met at a small town meta-academy and dated seriously until Scott's family moved to Maple City.
* According to Scott, he returned to school from a weekend off to find that Kim had been kidnapped by students from the same rival academy that instigated a fight with Scott on his first day. Believing that Kim's abduction was some sort of retaliation against Scott for their previous quarrel, Scott rushed in to rescue Kim. He claims he fought his way through 8, 18, or 80 students (the numbers vary with each telling) before he got to Simon Lee, the culprit responsible. After an "epic" duel, Scott rescued Kim and in so doing, Scott awakened his romantic interest in Kim.
* There might have been some tension between her and Lisa. There's a photo taken during a meta-tournament which shows them angry at each other.
* Before moving in with Lisa she had some horrible roommates.
* She experienced a dream where Scott Pilgrim was killed by Stephen Stills and Scott's girlfriends told her they were finally free. She also had a conversation with Envy Adams.
* She and Knives Chau drunkenly made out. After that they became a couple.
