( my apologies for the length of this again. if you read through the entire thing then here's a gold star! ⭐ you're amazing )
TW: adhd mention, sports injury, depression
CHILDHOOD
shiloh was the firstborn of four siblings, the other three being girls, who was raised by a pair of high school sweethearts. his parents were always sickeningly in love, but despite finding it gross when they kissed, he knew he was lucky to have both his parents and that they were still together. for as long as he can remember he's had a ball by his feet, kicking it around and when his parents signed him up for soccer when he was 8, he instantly loved it. he hasn't stopped playing since.
TEENS
throughout his schooling, it became clear that shiloh wasn't the brightest crayon in the box. it wasn't that he couldn't read or write or learn, but he seemed to have a strange idea of how the world worked. his teachers would call him a slacker when he was unable to concentrate, talked a mile a minute and constantly bounced around in his seat, but the summer before high school he was diagnosed with adhd. the medicine calmed him some and he became a decent student, but he never fully understood how things worked. was popular all throughout high school, known as the class clown and the jock. he was granted a soccer scholarship and attended college and was allowed to play soccer at a boston college, while living at home.
20s
shiloh graduated college with a degree in history with a sucky gpa. but it didn't matter, because after graduation he was drafted by the new england revolution, a major league soccer team. he loved it because it allowed him to stick close to home, while doing what he loved. at twenty six he suffered a career ending injury, that caused him to have to retire from the team. he returned back to ashford and aimlessly lived on his parents couch for a while. with no idea who he was without soccer, shiloh lost some of his outgoing personality and fell into a bit of a depression. it took him two years to move out of his parents' house. they and his three younger sisters were what got him through the whole thing.
NOW
after moving out on his own two years ago, shiloh has become more himself again. he's happy-go-lucky, never shy to make a funny comment. he at times goes to the soccer field by the local high school and shoots around a ball, reminiscing. but all in all he's much better. he has a life he loves, with working at the diner and hanging out with friends, but he still is going through a bit of an identity crisis as he doesn't know where he's going next.
PERSONALITY
shiloh isn't always that bright, but he's always had a way with people. he's rarely seen without a smile or heard without a funny comment from his lips. at times he's a bit lost, but he never lets it truly show. there are very few people who know he still suffers from bouts of depression because he's good at hiding it. shiloh's often all over the place, especially without his adhd meds that he tends to forget taking. some call him chaotic, but he doesn't mind.
HEADCANONS
has a few small, random tattoos, one of which is a tornado because his parents' nickname for him was tiny tornado when he was a kid.
spends a lot of time around people, because that's how he thrives best. has a small studio apartment but hates spending time there alone. which is why it's barely decorated.
plays a lot of video games, as that's what he did a lot while dealing with his depression. it allowed him to immense himself in a different world and it's a hobby he's kept up with.
works out, not just to stay in shape but to keep his leg healthy after he had surgery on it.
