Shane Madej, the nation’s greatest tragedy

[chxrmedexistence-blog]

magentcs:

“i can’t believe i continue to entertain friendship with you. you are such a bad influence.” despite the words leaving her lips and the small eye roll she gave him, evie was already capping her pens and highlighters and closing her books. she’d never admit that she was thankful for an excuse to escape her studies for a bit, especially not to devi’s face, but some fresh air would do her well. “no more caffeine needed here, but take these back up to the counter while i pack up and then i’ll allow a short kidnapping if you promise to sneak in some flashcard terms every once in a while.” pushing her empty cups towards him, she gave him a triumphant smile and then turned to stuff all of her books back into her backpack. 

“you entertain friendship with me? if you say so. i happen to be a very busy man with very important... things to attend to. you’re lucky i just prioritise annoying you” he says, smiling in his own self-satisfied way as she appeared to be packing up. “wow - that’s a new personal best for getting you to give in” he snarks, laughing as he grabs the cups and takes them up to the counter. “you think i will know or understand anything about what’s in the lsats? the guy who’s career is spearheaded by making creepy youtube videos?” he jokes as they head out “...but deal”. he grabs the door for her on the way out, then follows her outside into the sunlight. “any particular requests for what to do? or am i fully trusted to make a sensible, informed choice?”

Daisy rolled her eyes and threw him a casual shrug, but the playfulness was still very evident on her face. She wasn’t too great at hiding her emotions when drunk, and the giggly idiot she was becoming tonight wasn’t showing any sign of stopping soon. Normally Daisy would gag at someone like that–the drunk girl that could hardly keep herself steady and giggled at everything a cute guy had to say to her–but she just didn’t care at this point. She’d had so many shots of tequila back at the bar that really, nothing mattered. “Mmm.. And you’re acting like you weren’t just dying for some cute girl to come barreling your way and save you from your boredom.” She leaned in as if she were going to tell him something very secret, “Even though that’s not what I came to do. You’re kind of on your own.” She began to laugh again, though this time it was more of a genuine laughter rather than the embarrassing giggle she had let out before. She couldn’t keep her eyes from wandering the male before her; he was taller than her, had great hair, and the smirk on his face was to-die-for. It was in this moment she decided she really wouldn’t mind ending up at home with him later that evening. 

“Oh really?” She stepped towards him just a bit more before reaching up and fixing the collar of his shirt, “And what has Mr. Successful done for himself, hm?” The petite brunette did this often–found a guy she found attractive and immediately turned the charm on, even if her type of ‘charm’ only consisted of being slightly less brash than she normally was. It seemed to work for her in the past, she figured there was no reason it wouldn’t work for her tonight. “I didn’t have anything to do tonight either. Maybe we should make sure the other is having fun.” She yelled her last sentence over the music, only to start laughing again at ridiculous the entire scene around them really was. It wasn’t until he leaned in to really introduce himself that chills shot up her spine, causing her to bite her lip in anticipation. Her eyes trailed down to his hand, which she shook with her own before finally introducing herself back, “Daisy.” She glanced over at the people he’d been talking to previously before leaning into his ear again, “Think your friends would be mad if we ditched?”

The girl appeared to give off a whole myriad of mixed signals and contrasting body language, making Devi’s drunken attempts to discern her personality and judge how to conduct himself in the conversation... unfamiliarly difficult. She was silly and fun, but seemed to check herself for being so. He was normally pretty shrewd when it came to reading people, but she was different. Difficult. This uncommonness definitely piqued his interest, and possibly further fuelled his attraction. But he was also drunk, a little horny, and she was beautiful. So there was also that. It would be a lie to say that his nature wouldn’t allow him to flirt and pursue people sober, but the alcohol warmed him and loosened him up, boosting him enough to be even more confident in doing so. But it was true he was always a little bit shameless. Devi gave a self-satisfied huff of laughter, then made a clear point of flexing his hand that was sitting on her waist and pulled her in a little closer to his side. “Funny you should say that... I don’t feel ‘on my own’”. Her laugh, her genuine laugh, was pretty. Hearing it, now he could recognise the difference.

His heart rate noticeably increased as she got further into his personal space, and when she raised her hand to his collar, he caught it in his own and smoothly directed it back over his shoulder so that her arm was looped around his neck. He paused for a couple of beats when she asked about his life, however. He always felt this weird innate awkwardness, or apprehension about boasting about his particular job to people. Telling people you were ‘successful’ because you make popular YouTube videos felt somewhat douchey, or something. “Earn enough money to have moved out of my parents’ place, and still afford to eat. The millennial dream”. His eyes hazily mapped her following body language, and it was almost as if she lit up with interest. Something definitely just felt like it was about to happen. “They’re losers, remember? Wouldn’t care if they did”

Devi took her hand in his and started leading her through the crowd of sweaty, gyrating bodies  - shouldering people out of the way and weaving between them until he came upon the sight of a couch and led her to it. There was only enough room for one of them to sit down on the end cushion beside two other people, which was unsurprising given how packed out the party was. Devi couldn’t say he was awfully upset at the situation. He brushed Daisy’s hair off her shoulder gently, before leaning in and pressing a brief, feather-light kiss into the dip in her neck. He pulled away and shot her a smouldering look up from under his eyelashes, then ceased touching her at all, and threw himself down so that he was lounging on the couch, arms open and inviting her to join him.

Hey honey! What are you listening to? Well, I’m listening to Saint Ivory, Avan Jogia and his brother’s new music. Also available on ITunes. Via his Instagram story, 5.27.18.

in another situation, there’s a chance yani might be annoyed. she loved dogs, but with another owner, this whole situation could’ve been a mess. however — who was she to complain about a polite, handsome man with an adorable dog ? it was a rather positive moment of her otherwise frustrating day. she wasn’t very good at meeting people, let alone making friends, but there was something inviting about his personality. maybe she could loosen up a little. “i’m not surprised. you seem like the type. which – isn’t a bad thing.” she catches herself at the end, actually making an EFFORT not to completely talk her way out of a potential friendship. “nice to meet you.” she nods. “not originally. my childhood was india, new york, and then here for my high school years, and then i moved back to new york for med school.” she explains. “and now i’ve been back here for a few years. about five, i think. but i can’t say i get around too much. just work, home, the park. surprised i haven’t seen you and your pup before, though. can’t say i’m mad that she ambushed me today.” she notes, voice an unusual soft.”what about you ? marble born and raised ? “

when it came to getting a read on people, it could be argued that jason wasn’t the greatest at noticing intricacies right away. he was known to take people at face value as a general rule, and work from there. sometimes it led to him being deceived about peoples’ true intentions, and that was upsetting, but other times it built the foundations quickly for valuable friendships and connections. call him naive for instinctively seeking out and believing the good in other people. and when it came to kalyani he could tell that she was guarded, but something about her aura in this moment gave off this kind of beautiful open-minded friendliness. it was kind of alluring and jason couldn’t help but be intrigued. he laughed breezily at her insinuation, and he listened with genuine interest about her history, nodding along subconsciously as she talked. “oh wow - so you’ve moved around a bit, then? sounds kind of hectic, but living in so many different environments must’ve given you such a variety of life experiences. that’s so cool. to come from new york city to this... must’ve been a culture shock” he replies. “yep...” he nods keenly, with a laugh “sometimes i feel like my life goes in that exact cycle. like i worry if i should be getting out more, but thank-you for the validation”. he notes the slight change in her voice, and for some reason he makes his smile turn minutely bashful against his will. please say i’m not blushing, for god’s sake. “no - i’m actually a southern boy, myself. i’m originally from georgia, but i ended up moving here about five years ago as well, coincidentally. got offered a permanent teaching position up at the elementary school; i teach second grade. i’d been wanting to move north for a while anyway, i just seemed to get lucky”

“i know, it’s completely heartbreaking.” he could tell the dog was completely soaked through, and it was still shivering a bit from the rain. taking the dog in his own arms, levi made way to go and get one of the spare towels that was always laying around and wrapped the dog up in it so that it could stay warm. “if you don’t mind, i’ll need you to fill out a couple forms, just about where you found him and stuff like that.”

jason stared into space for a few beats after the dog was taken from him, eyes sad and still remaining focused on the little thing, lost in thought. damn, he knew he was softhearted, that was evident. but for some reason when it came to animals it hit his emotions ten times as worse. kids and animals were definitely his weak spot. did the receptionist just ask him something? “hm? oh yeah, yeah - of course...” he said, broken out of his reverie. jason picked up the pen on the desk, and started filling out the form in front of him. “so how long have you worked here, then? do you find it, like... hard sometimes? to do this sort of thing?”

evie hadn’t really looked up from her books when she’d spoken, so she hadn’t even realized it was devi until he spoke. watching him already pushing her books aside, evie gave him a roll of her eyes and snatched up one of the empty coffee mugs that was threatening to fall of the side of the bar. “of course you couldn’t resist. when am i not stressed, honestly? this whole lsat thing is completely kicking my ass.” she said, motioning to the books in front of her. “i probably could.” she sighed, resting her head in her hands. she’d already been there nearly all day and she was starting to fade a little.

devi simply sipped his iced coffee as evie complained, his eyebrows raised in mild surprise and interest - she said she was always stressed, whereas he’d always characterised her as pretty unflappable. interesting. “oof - sounds important. but knowing you, and judging by your book and paper fort you’ve been here for hours. you’re gonna burn yourself out and any studying done past that point will be useless” he explained, leaning back casually in his chair, a self-satisfied smile slowly working its way onto his face “so you might as well let me kidnap you for an adventure. quickly, before you sprout a grey hair”. he didn’t have any plans for the day, had been wandering aimlessly, and evie was good company for all she didn’t entertain his shit. “i’d offer to get you a coffee, but...” he trailed off, pointing to the several empty cups with a chuckle “yeah, something tells me you don’t really need the caffeine”

“well where the hell else am i going to sit?” devi jibed, already slightly carelessly moving aside some of her assortment of personal items in order to sit and set his coffee down on the bar. “as if i’d by chance see you out and about and not take the opportunity to annoy and distract you for a little bit. what’s going on? you look stressed. like you could use a break”

“oh! i can move these if you need to sit here.” it probably looked like evie had been living in the coffee shop, with about three empty mugs scattered around her work station and her laptop, two review books and a notepad all laid out in front of her. she’d moved to the little bar that faced out to the street a bit ago so that she could get some sunshine on her face and do a bit of people watching, but she was taking up two extra seats to her left and right with all of her stuff.

This was one of those nights where Daisy didn’t really know what the fuck she was doing. She just knew she couldn’t take being alone another night and found herself jumping from bar to bar in the small town. Eventually, she was approached by a few guys that told her of the party. And, somewhere down the line after a few shots at her usual spot down the street from her apart, she found herself walking into the mess of a party. Everything was so hot; it was almost like steam was erupting from the room with the amount of people crammed into the house. She hadn’t been to a party like this since she was in college, and she really never was one for those to begin with. Unless she was already drunk upon arrival, that is, which is exactly how tonight was panning out. Normally, she wouldn’t even entertain the idea of showing up to some random’s house that probably contained every kind of person, both underage and and too-aged. Tonight, however, was an especially weird night, and she had decided about four shots of tequila earlier that she didn’t care what she did, as long as she had fun. 

“My hero.” Daisy said in response to him catching her, her eyelashes batting dramatically up at him. She could hardly contain her sarcasm, however, as she let out a very audible laugh at her own joke. Her eyes glazed over and her eyebrows rose at his confession–that all of these kids were his friends. Daisy didn’t know at what point she started referring to anyone younger that her–or even appearing to be younger than her, both physically and mentally–as kids, but it was a dumb habit she wished she didn’t have. It made her sound like an old woman. Of course, these thoughts hadn’t left her head, but she still had a weird look on her face just from the realization. Shaking her head, she reached to take her flask back. “Hey! I don’t remember offering. I might be fucked up but I’m not that drunk.” She giggled a bit, a girlish sound she wouldn’t ever let escape her mouth if she were sober. The brunette took another smaller swig before throwing the half-empty flask back into her purse. “Does that make you a loser, too? Or are these guys a thing of the past for you?”

With the hand that was already holding onto her waist, Devi poked her ribs playfully and hit her with a mockingly surprised, scandalised look. The sort of look that screamed ‘I’m a cheeky little shit who can pull moves like stealing a stranger’s vodka’. “Hey! I don’t remember asking to be fell on and groped on your way down. Consider it compensation” he shot back, then was momentarily taken aback by the girlish giggle that came out of her mouth... even though somewhere inside the drunken fog of his brain he thought that it seemed foreign or unusual for her even though he didn’t even know her. Devi was getting to the point where keeping up with continuing conversations was a little taxing, but he decided to concentrate extra hard and make the effort in this case. Show off a little. This girl had an interesting, funny sort of erratic vibe, and along with how blatantly attractive she was, Devi couldn’t help but be drawn to her. Then again, she could very well be just another drunk girl at a house party. But sometimes you just have to trust your instincts.

“Ah, an interesting question. I tend to class myself as an advanced type of loser - I’ve levelled up. I’m not in college anymore, kinda actually done some things with my life, I’m self aware...” he trails off slightly and narrows his eyes ... not quite sure where he’s going with this. He smiles and lets out a huff of laughter, his tone evening out with an ounce more sincerity than before. “I got invited by a friend of friend, wasn’t doing anything else tonight, and it sounded like fun” He bends forward when the music swells and the thumpa thumpa gets louder and starts drowning out their voices slightly, so that his lips were right up close to her ear. “I’m Devi” he says firmly, holding his hand out in the space between them. 

[chxrmedexistence-blog]

jason handed over the little pup he’d been holding in his arms and trying to keep warm, its incessant shaking breaking his heart. he’d been driving home from work and it was a miserable, unseasonably cold day for may - and that’s when he’d come across the poor little thing on the side of the road.

“thank-you so much” he said sincerely, eyes shining with compassion and creeping concern. “yeah i really hope so, the poor thing. i really honestly don’t understand how people can do things like that to animals. be that cruel, y’know? how could you have the heart to physically leave puppies like that on the side of the road and just drive away...”

“here, i can take him for you.” reaching behind the desk, levi grabbed one of the shelter’s temporary collars and leashes so her could help the person who’d just brought in the stray dog they’d found. “don’t worry, we’ll take good care of him and he’ll have a home in no time.” crouching down, levi fastened the collar around the dog’s neck and clipped the leash on.

[chxrmedexistence-blog]

Devi had kind of lost track of exactly how long he’d been there. When he drinks he just tends to lose any and all semblance of time and space and kind of just.. exists. Having fun in his drunken state with little to no regard for such things. One of the perks of moving back to permanently live in Marble, was the fact that most of the people he went to high school with also still live here, and so he ends up getting asked to a decent amount of parties. Meaning he doesn’t have to pay a crazy amount to get wasted at a bar or club where alcohol measurements are barely anything - give him a bottle of hennessy from the cheap-ass liquor store round the corner and a questionable couch, in a questionable house, with even more questionable party guests any day. Okay - before him and his friends had gotten there they’d been drinking back at his place so he was pretty buzzed and feeling ~loose~. So much so, he was not aware of the girl that was... hurtling towards him until she was quite literally hanging off him. Thankfully, given his less than stellar reflexes at this moment in time, Devi’s arm instantly moved around her back to stop her fall and steady her balance. And he didn’t quite move it when she seemed steady on her feet again, either. Because she was hot as hell and didn’t seem too inclined to move away either. Just a hunch. 

He let out a dorky-sounding bark of laughter, then turned away from his friends’ conversation to appraise her. “Yeah - fucking nuts. Orgies on the dancefloor, girls just... coming out of nowhere and falling all over me. Clearly, I’ve got something special... but those ‘losers’ happen to be my friends and former classmates...” he says, adopting a stern tone towards the end, and puts on his best ‘serious face’ - eyebrows drawn together and everything, looking her right in the eye. The whole works. But he can only hold it for a couple of beats before breaking into a smirk, laughing as he slips the flask out of her hand. “Nah, you’re right. They are fucking losers” he says, mirroring her own long swig before handing it back to her.

Daisy was drunk, that was evident. How she ended up at some house party, she had no fucking idea, but she was here and she was bored. She didn’t know anyone, the music was deafening, and she could see more people grinding and sucking face than she could see floor. She still had the same damned smirk on her face as always, though–nothing could ruin her good time at the moment. After pushing through the drunken crowd of what she assumed to be college kids and others of the like, she found herself tripping over someone’s shoe and ramming right into a male figure at the edge of the pile of people. Daisy’s pale hands caught his shirt over his chest as she tried to steady herself and a laugh escaped her lips. “Shit.” She stood up straight and pulled her hands from his chest before pushing her hair from her face, “This place is fucking nuts. Can you believe the orgy taking place for the world to see? Amazing.” Daisy spoke at the stranger without a second thought, all the while digging through her bag and pulling out a flask. “Losers.” She mumbled as she took a long swig of her vodka.

UPSIDES of a random dog stopping at your feet ? the dog having a handsome owner. sure, she noticed the state his jogging put him in, but she imagined her own jogging around the park meant her hair was out of place and she’s sure mid-weather of vermont had sweat on her forehead and down her back. attractive. she thinks, and then moves on quickly from the thought. “it happens. i’ve got two and sometimes i think they’ve got their own language just to be little brats.” she lets out a low chuckle, meeting his eyes when he crouches to her level. “it’s no big deal. you get used to it when you come home and have to prepare not to fall down.” her shoulders shrug, reaching out a hand to introduce herself. “kalyani.” he states simply, keeping a hand balanced on his dog. 

okay, so she’s ridiculously beautiful and she also loves dogs? suddenly, jason’s rather happy for the chance encounter that was conveniently placed in his lap that day. if he was alone, he’d possibly roll his eyes at himself for his tendencies towards being an grand, old-fashioned romantic. this isn’t your very own romcom meet-cute, pal. get your head on straight and be normal, for god’s sake. “they torture us because they know we love them enough to let them get away with stuff. at least, that’s how it is with me. total soft-touch” he admits, shrugging with a small chuckle and casts his eyes downward before she offers her hand. “jason mitchell. nice to meet you” he replies, now looking at her again, expression soft, but open. “are you from around here? i feel like i should’ve seen you around before”

Today had been a relatively slow day for Devi. The weather was suitably mild and overcast, appropriate for the day he’d planned of purely... editing, editing, editing. He promised to have the new video uploaded by tonight, but he was known for procrastinating and skirting close to deadlines for such things. So rather than sweat away in his dank cave of a bedroom for any longer, he’d decided to actually let himself feel daylight, see other people and the like. His local coffee shop it was. And in the couple of hours he’d been there, he’d gotten a surprising amount of work done. But the number of drinks he’d bought to motivate himself were beginning to take effect.

Devi’s eyebrows shot up as someone broke him out of his reverie. “Pee, I guess. Unsurprising, considering I’m, like... waiting in line for the bathroom” he jokes, a small smirk tugging at his lips as he regards the woman. Out of the corner of his eye, he notices that it’s his turn. “Hey, philosopher. You seem like a perfectly fun and reliable stranger, how about you go watch my stuff over there and I’ll buy you a coffee after?”

When Nina wasn’t working, she was usually roaming around the town in hopes of finding something exciting to do or someone interesting to talk to. Which was exactly what she was doing now. While she has always been a Californian at heart, it was always exciting to be in a new city or town, to discover all of its secrets. Even if Marble was little slower paced than she was used to. After a half hour of walking around, Nina stumbled into the nearest building because yeah, walking was good for your heath but at what cost? Her lips pulled up into a grin at the nearest person to her. “If you could do anything at all in this exact moment, what would you do? And don’t say what you’re doing right now, because you look really fucking bored.”

[chxrmedexistence-blog]

it would be a safe bet to say that the local park was one of jason’s all-time ‘happy places’ - especially when the weather was this nice and agreeable, sun filtering through the trees and heating the ground. even if he didn’t have bella, he could just simply lie down on the ground, soak in the sunshine and just exist. speaking of bella - it took him a second to notice, but she appeared to be... running in the completely opposite direction of the ball he’d just thrown for her. she was mischievous like that - tended to do as she pleased, safe in the knowledge that she had him wrapped around her little finger. jason ran to catch up with her, only to find she’d led him straight to... a beautiful woman. he became instantly ten times more aware that he probably had sweat patches from the jogging and the... dog-wrangling. at least she didn’t seem to mind his little runaway. 

jason smiles in reply, instinctively reaching down to pat bella’s back. “yeah, she’s my baby, even if she’s trying to run away from me” he jokes, crouching down so that he’s not speaking down to her. “sorry she kinda... ambushed you there”

when she wasn’t working, kalyani found that she liked to be in the park. though she wasn’t a HUGE people person, it was relaxing, and the sidewalks made her a good place to jog. however, she found herself coming to a halt when a dog came running into her path and she, SURPRISINGLY, let out a soft laugh, bringing herself down to the dogs level. she sees someone approaching and can only assume the dog belongs to them. “yours ? “ she asks, peering up from her crouched position. “because if not, i might be getting a third dog.” she jokes gentle, petting the dogs head.

was that AVAN JOGIA walking around town ? oh, no ! that was just DEVI MULANI, a TWENTY FOUR year old SAGITTARIUS. i heard he’s currently a YOUTUBER/VIDEOGRAPHER and has lived in marble for FOURTEEN YEARS. something i noticed is that he can be FLIGHTY but also FUN-LOVING and LEATHER JACKETS, RINGS, HALF-EMPTY JD BOTTLES, LIT-UP LAPTOP SCREENS IN DARK ROOMS AND SILLY SMIRKS always remind me of him. 

history/background;

devi is a lil shit lets just get that out of the way first

in regards to his childhood it’s kind of weird because it wasn’t completely plain sailing by any means, but it wasn’t bad enough in his mind to warrant it being a ‘rough’ childhood? compared to a lot of other people it really wasn’t all that bad lmao

he lived a pretty charmed existence up until he was about 10 when his parents got divorced

his mom ended up getting custody of him and his two older sisters, and she moved them all upstate to marble in order to be closer to her family

his dad still had part-custody though and they saw him every other weekend - although all three stopped going so much as they got older, and devi especially just grew further and further apart from his dad until he felt like they barely even knew each other. not that they had an awful lot in common in the first place. he wasn’t a bad guy necessarily, just more of a traditionalist, and they didn’t see eye-to-eye. even to this day when devi’s doing decently well for himself his dad is still tutting and pestering him to ‘get a real job’ lol

he got away with a lot of shit because of a combination of factors. the fact that he was the youngest child, the only boy, his mother feeling guilty in some ways about the divorce, and his eventual stepfather not feeling like it was ‘his place’ to discipline his wife’s kids

tends to make the joke that he “wasn’t spanked enough as a kid”

he was a class clown growing up and tended to show off for attention, and was observant enough to realise that was his ‘in road’ to making friends, and he’s been playing a similar role ever since

wasn’t overly academic, never could quite find his groove in any school subjects that he actually tried in. he was smart enough to pass, but never excelled

looooooooved movies and (slightly oddly) documentaries and biopics as a kid, used to ‘direct’ his toys and stuffed animals in little mini productions to show off to his mom. so he’s always had a creative eye.

eventually it all clicked into place for him and he went to college to study media production, and that’s where he met danny, who was coincidentally from marble as well

right now his career is as a youtuber, in which he has most notoriety as being ‘the cynical one’ in his and danny’s paranormal investigations - even though he likes to argue he has a healthy curiosity in all that ‘stuff’ - he just hasn’t been presented with enough evidence or experiences to make him believe in it all completely. basically homeboy is waiting for a demon to possess him before he admits defeat.

although that takes up most of his attention he’s also started vlogging and other videography/freelance video editting projects, which he hopes to pursue more in the future

personality;

as i’ve said, he’s a little shit. sarcastic as hell with a dry sense of humour.

he’s incredibly fun-loving but not quite extreme enough to describe himself as a ‘hedonist’. loves to party and get wasted and ‘enjoy his youth’, but equally enjoys lounging around in bed with snacks and wes anderson movies or parks and rec

is kind of bluntly honest; can come off as rude or off-hand sometimes even when he’s really not trying to be

is affectionate with his friends

very chill, easy-going ‘type b’ guy

a bit of a ‘lazy perfectionist’ - when he has the motivation for something, he becomes very thorough and detail-orientated and drives himself crazy trying to make things perfect. this, however, is emotionally exhausting and therefore sometimes puts him off doing things/taking certain opportunities and that in itself makes him annoyed at himself

not something he’d really admit to or feel comfortable talking about but he can be very insecure? particularly when it comes to what people think about him. he gives the impression that he doesn’t, but trying to recognise and reevaluate how people are viewing him is something he does by instinct constantly and can’t escape.

comes off as kinda aloof but he cares reaaally deeply for his friends, and is the first person that’ll be there for you in a crisis

extras;

has suffered with insomnia since he was a teenager

identifies as pansexual/queer and is very go with the flow up until this point in his life in regards to polyamory/casual relationships. he’s a bit of a commitmentphobe (nothing to do with his sexuality; just who he is as a person) and he just wants to experience everything life has to offer. it’d take someone special to get him into something serious but it’s… not something he’s completely closed off to if it happens. whether it’s related or unrelated to his proclivity for flings/casual relationships, he has a kinda jaded image of love and relationships after living through his parents’ kinda messy divorce. if he’s going to tie himself down he’s gonna be extra sure it’s what he wants to do and that it’s the right person

basically boy gets around a bit lmao he loves experiencing sexual/romantic affection

he’s more of a cat person than a dog person
