beau cursed, something they rarely did as they sat on their knees, reaching under the car. they had only wanted to grab them and get going but now, their back was cramping and they couldn’t get up. they moaned miserably and looked up as they heard footsteps approaching. “could you help me up, please?” they asked, the pain evident in their face. they hated getting older.

boots scuffing along the pavement as he attempted again and again to light the cigarette propped between his teeth, rían finally gave up with an audible huff and found himself unknowingly stopping in front of someone. “uh, sure,” he hesitated briefly, shoving his lighter into a back pocket to offer his hand out. “you lookin’ for something or...?”

Robin had noticed the person drinking alone quietly beside her as soon as they had taken a seat, and had decided a half of a minute in that she should strike up a conversation with them. But what exactly did you say to strangers? Come here often? Even the thought o the cliche made her want to pull her hair out. So instead Robin drained her drink in silence, finally daring to meet the eyes of the person next to her and smile.  “Long day?” she decided to assume, judging by the fact that it was only six o’clock on a Thursday.

he wasn’t particularly enjoying the company of the whiskey in his hand, but it seemed healthier to at least be out of his apartment instead of tucking himself away in it until the next day. rían had of course noticed the woman at his side and assumed that silence would be the name of the game, something he was entirely content with. brows raised as he brought the glass to his lips and found himself addressed with a question. “i spent the whole day thinkin’ it was friday and someone just had to correct me,” he shrugged a shoulder. “so yeah, it’s been pretty fuckin’ long. can i get you another drink?”

‣ rían ardal donoghue. ‣ forty. ‣ cismale. ‣ bisexual, biromantic. ‣ handyman and electrician.

the baby of the family, rían enjoyed the attention while it lasted. he was doted on by his eldest sibling, his brother mícheál and even more so his sister ingrid who had been relegated to the position of middle child upon his arrival. he was born and raised in dublin, ireland.

always had a keen interest in books which surprised his family given that they usually couldn’t tie him down – he spent a lot of time at his aunt’s, who lived in co. donegal on a farm. there, he could frequently be found dangling off tree branches with a book in hand, or wandering around reading to the sheep and chickens. if he wasn’t reading, then he was tinkering with or fixing up one thing or another; he had grown up helping his father on maintenance jobs and was always determined to keep and develop those skills.

the trips away and showerings of love he was used to came to an abrupt halt before his tenth birthday; his older brother was killed in a bar fight, leaving the family devastated and beginning to tear at the seams. the mood in the household shifted and things were never the same again. ingrid was the next to leave, no longer enjoying living at home and instead choosing to go to university in england, leaving rían all alone with his now uncaring and disinterested parents.

he did alright in school – well enough, much to his own surprise, to get into trinity college dublin to study english literature and the modern irish language ( a language he’d grown up speaking and loved. ) 

rían moved out, settled into routine at college and two years into his four year degree, dropped out without warning to move in with a long time friend of his, brendan. the pair spent two years together living in dublin; rían worked as an apprentice electrician until they ( now dating ) decided to go traveling after he qualified. 

it was on their us road trip that the rift began forming between rían and brendan; by the time they reached florida it was clear that they were in different places and wanted different things. namely, brendan wanted rían to live up to his full potential and “get his shit together” where rí was content as he was. after a somewhat explosive drunken ( & very public ) argument the two decided they would go their separate ways. after very little thought, he decided he would stay in the nearest town of elmerton, feeling there was nothing to go back to in ireland. 

that was just over five years ago. in that time, rían gained further qualifications in order to set up his own ‘practice’ in elmerton and has offered his services as a general handyman and electrician ever since. will not answer to “ryan”, will think about it if it is the first meeting but other than that be prepared for a blank expression, probably a ribbing and an explanation that the only and correct way to pronounce his name is “ree-an”, rí or “ree” is an acceptable nickname.

soft but sarcastic, it’s a coping mechanism for sure because... why would you want to express your real feelings amiright. doesn’t know what a sleeping pattern is, drinks way too much tea for it to be considered healthy – but he does make a good cup. smokes like a chimney; he started in college and gets the feeling he should probably stop but it’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. at some point kind of realised that he may well have depression, and has had it for as long as he can remember -- he’s not sure if it was/is a product of the loss of his brother and everything that came with that or if he’s just always felt kind of shitty. either way, it’s not something he’s about to deal with properly. 

i have a little connection/plots page here but i’m open to absolutely everything with everyone!
