Why A Flannel Jacket Always Seems So Appealing

When it begins to get chillier, each and every one, irrespective of age and gender, starts thinking about throwing on a flannel jacket. But, the power of a flannel jacket is not only limited to just how warm they are, there are many reasons behind their popularity.

[changeling-droneco]

That "I can't draw miku because the usa has no culture sad" post pissed me off so much i made a portland miku

Portland miku as a beanie, a jean vest, flannel scarf and jacket wrapped around waist, a beavers patch on her back along with a gravity falls pinetree, on her beanie is a keep portland weird pin, the portland motta, and a blm pin to symbolize portlands long history of protests and for the fact the blm protests in Portland lasted nearly a year! Her phone has a fun little phone case and she's riding the Trimet.

No fucking culture my goddamn ass.

Plus the idea that Americans don’t have culture or don’t have an identity doesn’t actually dismantle the thought of American culture being the baseline but instead reinforces it

PERSONALITY

Night prefers to make a difference and seek fulfillment in quieter ways, like hobbies with no "goal" or work that can go uncredited. He strives to prove himself via helping others, often shouldering burdens that others shy away from for the sake of getting things done without forcing those around him to suffer discomfort. Insight, passion, altruism, and principled tendencies often conflict with defensiveness, stubbornness, perfectionism, and forgoing his beliefs and values for the sake of the "greater good."

Fighting Style: Adaptable, but prefers to avoid direct fights. Studied kickboxing, Wing Chun, and Krav Maga in his youth – CQC is influenced by these.

Weapons: Can use whatever is available.

Preferred Weapons: MCPR-300 (22″ OMX-456 barrel, Corio Laz-44 V3 laser, Nilsound 90 muzzle, .300 Mag Explosive ammunition), X13 Auto, Fairbairn-Sykes fighting knife, karambit, throwing knives

Special Skills: Specializes in sniper techniques, special reconnaissance, VIP protection, prime target elimination, demolitions, and sabotage. Has passed every marksman test with flying colors; never misses a shot, even in the worst conditions. Does his best work alone and in the dark. Swift and deadly.

Hobbies: Cooking, baking, reading, sports (baseball, climbing, kickboxing, swimming, soccer), music (guitar), photography, motorcycling

Former Hobbies: Did archery in his youth. Doesn't have time for it anymore, but it should be obvious why he's a sniper now.

TRIVIA

The name Emiel can mean "to strive, excel, rival, emulating", Scholten refers to a schout (government official that handled administration of justice), and de Ridder means "the knight".

His callsign Nightfall is in reference to his preference to work in the dark – both literally and figuratively. It's also a play on the phrase "lights out", since his work is best described as "putting people to sleep." (Because he's an assassin-type. Get it?)

Took interest in guitar shortly after he turned six, right before his mom died. He didn't play for years after her death, but decided to pick it up again as a young adult.

Greatly resembles his father and the other men on his paternal side. He's been described as having his mother's eyes and some of her "softer" features, though. Absolutely built like a brick wall.

Jokes about having a lot of experience, has slept with maybe 3 people in his entire life – and, none since his capture in 2017. He's willing to date, but is incredibly reserved after that incident. He desperately needs someone who can ground him.

Much like his sister, he skipped a year in primary school, which is why he graduated at 17 despite attending a VWO school.

His prosthetic hand is primarily made of titanium! It's also detachable so, yes, he will throw it at someone when they ask him to give them a hand with something.

Can and will sleep whenever and wherever is available. It's not uncommon to find him dozing off in a corner, on a couch, or even on top of a wall that he's scaled. He never sleeps hard, so it's easy to wake him up.

Is a very occasional smoker. Petra hounds him over it, so he only smokes when he's not at risk of getting caught by her. He's very health-conscious, otherwise!

TATTOOS

source 1 source 2

Tattoo One (Right Arm) A full sleeve blackwork tattoo with sun, celestial, and water themes. The sun is often seen as a symbol of life, light, warmth, power, positivity, and clarity. The celestials of the night sky can represent the unknown, mystery, the unconscious mind, and one's own deepest thoughts, desires, and fears. It can also be seen as an introspective and reflective symbol. Water, similarly to the sun, is seen as a universal representation of life, with other symbols including depth, ephemerality, sadness, purification, hope, and rejuvenation.

Tattoo Two (Left Shoulder) A compass, much like his sister! The symbolism is fairly obvious, no? Guidance, direction, the interconnected nature of every direction. The compass can serve as a reminder that one is free to choose the course of their life, or to help them find the path again after losing their way. It can also be seen as a symbol of awakening and self discovery for these very same reasons.

BACKGROUND

⋆ CW: themes of child abuse, torture, violence, and overall mary sue levels of tragedy

Born on September 17, 1993 in the city of Rotterdam, Netherlands, to Hendrik Scholten de Ridder and Johanna Scholten de Ridder, Emiel had a normal – if not privileged, thanks to his family's prominent histories – early childhood. From birth, he had a close relationship with his older sister, Mylène, who he quickly came to rely on for guidance and support.

In the late fall of 1999, when Emiel was only 6 years old, his mother was killed by enemies of his father originally seeking to hold her and the children hostage for ransom. This event, paired with the traumas he sustained over his years in the military, drove his father to "near insanity" as he became consumed with paranoia and grief. The rest of his and his sister's adolescence was defined by the trauma of his father's abuse; he subjected the siblings to rigorous physical and psychological training in order to mold them into "perfect soldiers" and prevent any further loss.

Despite this, his father was publicly viewed as a war hero. He would often leave the two alone when he was on deployment, forcing Mylène to care for herself and Emiel with nothing more than a roof over their heads and grocery money provided. The siblings developed an unbreakable bond during this time that would extend into their adulthoods, rendering them a synergic duo both at home and in the field, with Emiel promising to repay his sister for her efforts someday.

After finishing secondary school at 17, Emiel enlisted in the Royal Netherlands Army, serving in the Regiment Huzaren van Boreel in the 11 Air Assault Brigade. He also studied at the University of Amsterdam – taking online classes – and frequently visited his sister during her time in the 400 Medical Battalion, eventually graduating with a BA in Intelligence Studies. He spent 3 years participating in air assault and armored reconnaissance operations before passing selection for the Korps Commandotroepen in 2014, wherein he was quickly recognized for his natural skills in anything covert.

Specializing in sniper techniques, prime target elimination, VIP protection, demolitions, and sabotage, Emiel established himself as an elite operative who excels in hostile areas and hazardous environments. His exceptional accuracy and uncanny proficiency when operating in the shadows eventually earned him the nickname "Nightfall".

In early 2015, Nightfall joined his sister – now a KCT lieutenant nicknamed "Petra" – Captain Price of the British SAS, and Nikolai in an unsanctioned operation to kill or capture Chimera after the latter was discovered to be a traitor. The small team managed to track the Colonel and his supporters to a base deep in the Alps, where they successfully wiped out the entire group and killed Chimera. After the mission, much like his sister, Nightfall felt indebted to Price.

From then on, he continued to carry out covert and overt operations worldwide. Sometime in the next year, Nightfall managed to wipe out an entire base of Al-Qatala soldiers in one night without a single alarm being raised. The sole survivor referred to him as "The Reaper" when describing him, as he hunted every enemy whilst cloaked in darkness. Nightfall was later awarded the Military William Order, the Bronze Lion, and the Cross of Merit for both this operation and his following work within the KCT, establishing himself – or rather, his marksmanship – as a minor legend within the elite commando corps.

Another year later, around mid-2017, however, Nightfall was assigned to a unit led by Captain Price and Petra, tasked with infiltrating and securing an Al-Qatala base located in Kastovia. He served as the team’s scout sniper and overwatch during the mission, until he lost contact with the rest of the team. When the rest of the team finally reached his location to investigate, several IEDs planted in the area went off and forced the group to retreat. Despite his sister's attempts to rescue him, Nightfall was declared dead in absentia after demolition teams failed to locate his body the following day.

In reality, Nightfall was alive, being held as a prisoner of war by Al-Qatala’s commanders. The explosions caused him to lose one of his hands and left his face scarred. For the next two and a half years, Nightfall was interrogated, tortured, and subjected to inhumane conditions while imprisoned in Eastern Europe, though he still tried to support and protect the other POWs in the prison, regardless of which side they supported or whether they were civilian or military.

About a month after the formation of Task Force 141, CIA Station Chief Kate Laswell pinpointed the location of a prison in Georgia believed to be used by Al-Qatala to hold POWs. Reconnaissance of the prison confirmed this and the identity of several of the prisoners; Nightfall was identified as one of the POWs. His sister, leading an elite KCT unit, raided the location shortly thereafter, securing the captives, Nightfall, and intel about Al-Qatala's plans.

Following his rescue and intensive recovery in the hospital, Nightfall was deployed in Verdansk alongside other Coalition operatives under Armistice, where he relentlessly worked to prove himself once more.

As a valuable ally to the 141 and a near-fabled assassin with a long list of confirmed kills and countless unconfirmed, Nightfall has pledged his life and his very conscious to his work, his only saving grace being the characteristic pitch black masks obscuring his face every time he appears in the field – on the rare occasion he's visible, that is.

Re: accappatoio, does Italian have a separate word for a bathrobe?

In English I wouldn't say it's a rigid distinction, but often a "bathrobe" is used specifically for something you put on when you're still wet from the bath, so it's made of terrycloth or some other towel-like fabric material. But a "robe" can also be something you put on over pajamas to be warm, so the materials vary more: polyester fleece, cotton flannel, silk, etc.

And if it's very fancy or like something you'd wear in the 19th century but not today, do you still use the word accappatoio?

So, bathroom towels (big or small) are asciugamani (literally hand-driers) and are of course specific to bathroom use. If you put on a robe-like towel like the one in the picture after the shower then that, and only that, is an accappatoio (idk ab the etymo tho). if you use a big towel after a shower is still an asciugamano. As far as i know we dont really have a tradition of house robes like i see in uk/usa movies, we just wear pjs or regular clothes, and if you're cold you put on a sweater or a jacket etc. (Or do it like me and go around with a light blanket wrapped around like im an ancient roman off to senate lol).

Wait no we do have "house robes", ie vestaglia, but its something i traditionally associate with grandmas etc, and ive never actually seen anyone wear it so idk. (There are modern short house robes resembling kimonos etc too and ive seen a couple of my girl friends with those tho).

Adam is a sarcastic, sweet, freelance photographer who on some occasions can come across as a bit of an asshole. He is a carefree young man who was a victim of the 'Jigsaw Killer,' being described by Jigsaw as 'a strange mix of someone angry yet apathetic, but mostly just pathetic.' Despite Adam's sassy personality and sarcastic self-deprecating humour, there is an emotional side to him. He has a good heart despite his questionable decision-making some of the time. Presumably, Adam’s egoism is a reason for the lacking contact with his family. He can be arrogant and often reacts to questions and uncomfortable situations by being mockingly sarcastic and making provocative jokes. Adam, however, is capable of genuine empathy and compassion for others which was proved during his time in the 'Bathroom Trap.' He appears to have a very beautiful smile which only adds to his attractive appearance. Also living by himself in what he likes to call his 'shithole apartment,' he makes a substandard living off his photography work.

bio

(tw: death, toxic relationships, alcoholism)

— lewys was born on 12th november 1971 at 2:02pm in austin, texas, to lionel stone (an air traffic controller) and his wife vivian (a seamstress). he has an older brother named jordyn and a younger sister named sylvia.

— lewys was always the quieter of the three siblings. whilst his brother was always in some kind of sports club and his sister taking up both ballet and singing, lewys found solace in reading and writing. he also picked up the guitar and piano and liked watching baseball with his dad (the one sport his brother never go into) as well as sitting with his mother, writing whilst she worked, in her sewing room.

— lewys was bullied at school for being a ‘teacher’s pet’. he hated that term. just because he was the only one willing to learn and be a dedicated student did not mean he was a teacher’s pet. despite this, he persisted and eventually ended up with three close friends who looked out for him and for each other and the four of them are close, even now. lewys also graduated with top marks and went on to college, studying at columbia university in new york city. it was a life changing experience for him, meeting new people, learning new ways to write, and finding inspiration in every corner of the city.

— lewys returned home to texas after graduation, getting a job at his father’s favourite local bar to earn some money whilst he spent his free time building a writing portfolio and planning a screenplay he was inspired to write when he was still in nyc.

— when lewys’s father died, four years after graduation, and it hit the family hard. but he left each of his children a share of his life savings and with both the money and his mother’s encouragement he moved back to nyc, permanently. he briefly shared an apartment with an old college friend before finding his own in brooklyn. it was small, but more than enough for just him, his books, and other essentials. he also got a part time job in a bookshop, which he absolutely loved.

— after seeing an advert in a local newspaper about a short film script writing competition, lewys knew he had to submit an entry. he spent every moment of his free time on writing a script based off of his relationship with his father and about the importance of young boys having a positive male role model in their lives. after almost giving up on it a number of times, lewys submitted the script the day of the deadline and, to his complete surprise, was contacted a few weeks later and told he’d won, that his script was being turned into a short film. he couldn’t believe it. there was no way he had been this lucky. the film was shot around the city over eight weeks and lewys got an insight into the process by following the crew around and having a fair amount of input.

— with a newfound confidence and inspiration, lewys returned to his daily life after the quiet success of the film and began to really focus on his novel: a crime fiction set in 1920s nyc with elements of magical realism. he didn’t expect much to come of it, but six years later, when he was 31, he sent off the manuscript and had a literary agent quickly contact him about wanting to publish it. within the year, ‘honour and ashes’ had become quite the success and lewys spent the next few months on a book tour around the states.

— he returned to nyc, quit his day job, and decided to focus more on scripts, particularly for film, but also dabbling in television scripts. he wrote many things, but his best was ‘thorns and roses’: a feature length film set in modern day nyc that followed the story of two estranged sisters being forced to get along for the sake of their aging mother and discovering that life had more meaning that petty feuds and selfish gains. he spoke of it at a party he attended in manhattan, having been invited by a friend as their plus one, and was overheard by a film producer, who had seen lewys’s short film and its script and offered his contact details to talk more about it. the two later met and after a lengthy conversation, the script was to be made into a film.

— upon the commencement of filming, lewys visited the set to meet the cast, unintentionally and quickly falling in love with the actress playing the eldest sister: sierra robinson. she was gorgeous, sultry, talented, and had such a magnetic personality, and was only a few months younger than lewys. never did he think she’d fall for him too. he visited the set when he could and got to know more of sierra, with the two of them officiating their relationship just before the premiere of the film at the newly established tribeca film festival.

— it was only onwards and upwards from then on. lewys found more writing jobs, mostly solo but also collaborating with others, and his career kicked off. he found immense joy in creating something for others to immerse themselves in and getting across important social messages through his characters. he also tried to get back into being a novelist, too, but found little time for it.

— when lewys was 35, having been with sierra for four years, he proposed to her whilst they were on holiday in the carribbean. she didn’t hesitate to say yes and both were thrilled to finally be engaged. her career was taking off, too, so they believed that nothing could stop them and that they’d be the envy of their social groups. the wedding took place 18 months later on the same beach they got engaged on in front of a small gathering of friends and family, and they took their honeymoon to southern europe, visiting italy, monaco, and france, lapping up the sun and their love for each other. they went back to nyc with the intention of finally getting their own apartment in manhattan.

— lewys went on to write and eventually produce many films and thoroughly enjoyed success and the lavish lifestyle that came with it. he rubbed shoulders with the best actors and directors, attending parties and events, and was amazed that his dreams came true. that was, until, his world came crashing down when he was 42. work was hard to come by, with each of his scripts being scrutinised and rejected time after time and lewys couldn’t figure out why. he also couldn’t muster the imagination and creativity needed to start a new novel. not only that, but sierra realised she wanted children- something lewys was totally against- and now that time was catching up with them decisions had to be made. lewys’s insistence on being child free irked sierra, who begged and pleaded with him to change his mind.

— his dry spell of work began to get longer and wasn’t able to sell any kind of script or even a singular idea. he was trying his hardest, often becoming irritable and depressed at the prospect of his fame and money fading away, but it wasn’t good enough for sierra, who was often away working, but when she was home they would just fight and sometimes it would get a little too heated. sierra turned from the kind and attentive woman lewys knew so well into a belittling and screaming monster. but lewys didn’t have a single nasty bone in his body and despised conflict, and would only go so far in an argument before agreeing with sierra or storming off to be alone. eventually she gave him the silent treatment most of the time and they slept in separate rooms. she was always feeling angry, disappointed, and having her husband go from famous writer to being forgotten and discarded was a kick in the gut. she didn’t view lewys as the same person anymore and constantly turned her back to him and he realised that maybe she didn’t love him for who he was after all. the idea of him being rich and famous was obviously more appealing.

— but they did try everything to make their marriage work by going through months of therapy, but fixing their problems was like trying to stop a dam from overflowing by using a plaster. eventually lewys had enough of being ignored and treated as something disposable and filed for divorced. after everything had been finalised, he moved as far as he could from sierra to the opposite coast and found a new home in los angeles.

— lewys took a menial job in a restaurant, pulling pints and mixing cocktails for wealthier clientele. he only got the job because he was desperate and the manager who led the interview felt sorry for him. he was always down in the dumps and frustrated once he’d get home from late shifts, too tired to do anything, and would sleep in until midday almost every day. he lost his love for writing- his first love- and every time he thought about what he had let slip away it made him feel worse. he turned to drinking just to numb the pain of losing his wife, his job, and his friends, and felt worthless for the first time in his life.

— this sorry state of affairs went on until he was 46. in the meantime, he’d had visits from his siblings and mother, all offering him a place to stay back in austin, but he politely declined, wanting to be alone and not a burden to anyone. his siblings were leading happy lives and didn’t want to bring them down. lewys had gotten himself into this mess and he wouldn’t get himself out of it.

— his luck finally began to turn when, after visiting the store to pick up some whisky, lewys bought a lottery ticket just for fun and was shocked to find it had turned him back into a millionaire. but this time it would be different. he was going to be smart with his money, invest with it, save it, to make sure he wouldn’t end up at rock bottom again. lewys was also grateful for the relief extra financial support brought and after a few days his inspiration for writing started to return.

— two weeks later, on the night he promised himself he would stop drinking so heavily, he met valletta cambridge at a bar in the city. she was beautiful, charming, held herself with such confidence, and seemed genuinely interested in him. but she was considerably younger than he was. it was off-putting, but he loved being with her and loved having someone understand him and smile at his jokes.

— the two were only together for a few months before lewys got down on one knee and proposed. he’d never felt so sure about anything before and wanted to spend the rest of his life with valletta, got married the following summer, in july 2019, and lived together in a city apartment. he had never been happier and thought he was finally getting a real chance in life, but once again everything came crashing down four and a half years later in january 2024 when lewys found out that valletta had seduced him and married him purely because he’d won the lottery and wanted eventually take his money and run. he was devastated. in fact, devastated was an understatement. he thought he’d finally found the one- the one woman who loved him for who he was and not for his money or social status. everything about valletta was a lie and lewys wanted to rip out his heart, not wanting to be able to feel live anymore.

— naturally, a divorce followed and lewys became bitter. he hated that he’d become so hostile so quickly towards valletta. he kicked her out of the apartment and found his life had become empty and lonely once more. maybe he was just destined to be alone, or maybe he should just return to his relationship with alcohol and call it quits.

— after getting in the right headspace, however, lewys came to blue harbour in early august 2024 in search of valletta after tracking her down, to get the answers he deserved. she owed him that much. but deep, deep down, below all that anger and bitterness, he still loves her and wants to be able to make some kind of amendment.

biography

tw addiction

PART ONE.

some people were always meant to be famous. there are countless home videos of a young jaime blue lincoln singing and dancing along to the "beat it" that proved just as much. what began as living room performances and talent show stages quickly turned into appearances on maryland's daytime talk shows. jb was a local celebrity before even hitting the fourth grade—not that he ever really went to school. what's the use of learning cursive when you've already perfected the art of signing your autograph for adoring fans?

a wedding performance of a stevie wonder song here and a rendition of the national anthem there soon caught the attention of agents eager to sign jb onto their label. while his mother was skeptical of letting her son join the music industry, years spent on vocal lessons and dance rehearsals made it clear that their family was in no position to turn down a contract. at 14, jb became the breadwinner for his family of five as an up-and-coming popstar

that was, until, his debut album came and went without so much as a blip on the radar. his once-promising career was met with a lukewarm reception and was quickly swept under the rug for bigger and better things. his rising star faded away into obscurity, barely making its way past state lines

so, life went back to normal for jb—whatever that looked like. while he still did the occasional gig, he ignored the voice in the back of his head goading him into trying one more time. no, he'd shoved the thought of it away alongside the unsold copies of his album

as the years went by, jb having prepared for college at that point, it was a surprise to everyone when he heard from his old manager. that he was putting a group together and jb was on the shortlist. he didn't think it would amount to anything, but could a few auditions really hurt? the voice, the one he spent so much time ignoring, was deafening now. a few months later, jb traded in his college dorm for an apartment paid for on management's dime

PART TWO.

things moved quickly after that. their debut appearance on the today show, unpolished as it was, garnered a following for the band. this support helped skyrocket their lead single “what makes you beautiful” to the top of the charts. truth be told, overnight success was an understatement. they landed a record deal, a debut studio album, and an ellen show performance all within the span of a few months. jb, barely an adult, found himself headlining a national tour—finally living out the fantasy he’d imagined as a kid

the album cycle was endless. they’d step foot out of their tour bus just to end up at yet another recording session or award show. as much as it excited jb, he couldn’t wait until he got to sleep in a bed that actually belonged to him. but when the dust finally settled, going back to his hometown felt more foreign to him than being on the road. the call came for the boys to return to california and jb couldn’t get out of maryland fast enough

“treasure” hit number one globally and their second studio album came out just shy of a year from their first. the pressure was mounting from all sides and jb found himself putting out fires both in and outside of the group. spending hours cooped up in a tour bus with four random strangers would do that to a guy. he put it upon himself to look out for the other boys, stubborn as he was, and made sure to lend a shoulder to lean on when times got tough. jb might not have known it then, but he did his best to keep the group in one piece

and so it went. a third record-breaking album and international tour was nothing if not expected. could anyone really blame them for their egos when they had the numbers to back it up? could anyone blame him for the partying when he’d spent the rest of the time working his ass off? looking after the band despite the mounting tension that had started to get to him. jb didn’t know when the drugs and drinking got to be a problem—only that he had to do a damn good job of keeping it under wraps

for the first time in his life, jb had an honest-to-god writing credit to his name with their fourth album. tired of the bubblegum pop and r&b, the group’s musical direction had been toned down. as proud as he was for his involvement in the music, jb barely remembered those moments. his addiction had taken a toll and was only made worse by the overwhelming pressure for the group to somehow surpass the achievements they had broken. the voice in the back of his head that had always told him to go after more was now louder than ever

“you’re out of the band”—the words jb never thought he would hear. his manager had brought the boys into a meeting to let them know that jb would be leaving, that his problems with drugs and alcohol would only bring the rest of them down. he should have seen it coming in hindsight, but the news hit him like a runaway train. jb was gutted. just as they were getting ready to announce his departure, THE BAD BOY had gone ahead and stated that he would be leaving the group in the middle of their fourth tour. with the constant infighting and burnout over the years, no one put it against him

of course that meant jb wasn’t going anywhere. they continued the tour as a four-piece set and released their fifth and final album after having edited their former member out. devastating millions of teenagers around the world, the band announced a hiatus when their tour ended. jb took the break-up as if he had caused it himself—who’s to say he didn’t? his addiction got the better of him. finally free for once in his life, he wanted nothing more than someone to tell him what to do

PART THREE.

sobering up was a near-impossible feat. every milestone he reached was reported on by the tabloids and every visit he made to his counselor was tweeted out as if it were breaking news. he never was the most famous member of the band, but they followed him as if his life was on display 

while everyone else began working on their solo careers, jb moved out to tennessee to focus on his sobriety. there, he jumped headfirst into songwriting as a distraction. it allowed him to figure out what kind of music he wanted to make now that he was out of the spotlight 

he quietly released two albums since the break-up, mostly about his struggles with addiction and fame. the seedy bars and venues he plays now are ant hills compared to the arenas he toured, but he loves his following nonetheless 

jb heard the rumours circulating about the reunion and found himself at a crossroads. though he’s sober and holds no ill will towards the other members, there’s still the risk of falling into old habits and ruining the quiet life he nurtured for himself. the stress alone might just kill him this time around. but, funds are running low—funding your own musical ventures and taking care of your family doesn’t come cheap. that voice? the one in the back of his head? it’s been a long time since he’s listened to it, but he’d be lying if he said that he shut it up for good

*slams credit card on table* I'ma need that Sam interpretation if you are willing to spare some content 🤭🤭

fghjk Lovely please....you don't need to pay me. I give my interpretations for free with no extra fees. 😏

Okay, so most of everybody...cough almost like 99% of the fandom cough...views Mr. Samuel Collins as this country boy hick with a pick up truck and probably with a stick of hay hanging from his mouth just because he has a southern accent. Which if you wanna see Sam this way, fucking go for it!! Country boys have their charm!!! I just personally don't see Sam this way! So, don't come at me >.>

HOWEVER, I view him differently. I see Sam as a boy who moved away from a region of the USA that had a heavy southern accent but that doesn't paint him for me. I see him as a man who definitely listens to classic rock and all them 80's and 90's hits. He probably worked part time at a grocery store and got really damn good at it ALL WHILE studying at DAMN and worked under a really good healer. He was a busy man.

As for his clothing style is where it's really different for me. I do not see him in flannels...He's definitely a classic rock band-tee with jeans and converse/vans. And the tee's are like those faded, look like you've worn them so many times and have trouble letting them go kind of tee's. But as he grew older and is now turned he still wears the band-tees and jeans but he'll pair it off with a nice looking jacket (leather, dark/black denim jacket, etc). So, he kinda has this old rock look to him.

As for physical looks, they are similar to what the fandom is but I still think mine is a bit different. Shoulder length dirty blond/brown curly hair that he ties up. He has a 5-o'clock shadow beard. Used to have pretty deep green eyes. He's kinda built but not weirdly built but he's not scrawny either. You can tell he worked/works. Not too tall. Maybe like 5'7"-8".

But yeah...this is how I view Sam!! Thank you for asking Lovely! I had fun putting all my thoughts on him together.

pumpkin— how do you feel about horror movies? do you like psychological thrillers more or jump-scare oriented movies?

cider— do you dress up for halloween? if not, what do you do on halloween instead?

leaves— if you were in the zombie apocalypse, what would be your weapon of choice?

flannel— do you prefer sweaters, hoodies, cardigans, or zip-up jackets?

pinecone— what's the scariest horror game you've ever played?e costume, if any? do you have any costumes or cosplays you're looking forward to in the future?

pumpkin: I abhor horror movies (unless it's something like Nope) and I suppose if I had to choose psychological thrillers, I'd get scared less

cider: Yeah, my mom encourages me to dress up each year

leaves: Probably a crowbar or baseball bat, easy to swing

flannel: Hoodies, wearing one rn

pinecone: Uhhhhh, Bendy and the Ink Machine or FNAF (I once played with my sister and she got through the first night and me, having never played, said to her "here's how you do it" like i was some cool guy in an anime. but just like a "cool" guy in a comedy anime, i lost the night and got jumpscared)

Not sure if you meant to add it, but as for costumes, last year, I was Chibi Usa, and this year, I either was to do Chuuya from BSD or maybe Herlock from TGAA
