Personal Message

* Trigger Warnings!! This character comes with: a history of child abuse and parents that recretionally used drugs and alcohol and a present standing of gang violence, recreational drug abuse, alcoholism (though he's not exactly an alcoholic), ually explicit content and murder. Possible trigger warnings: with multiple partners (on different occasions and/or at one time), -related ual content, blood (not to the extent of gore), suicial tendencies, self harm and possible others. Any plotting could result in a mix of any of these mentioned and maybe some unmentioned topics. If you don't see something you're uncomfortable with mentioned, please, still let me know what may trigger you. I try to discuss big plot moves together anyway though before actually taking a story there.

* If you want to be related somehow (or, in other words, have a backstory together), inbox/PM and we can discuss it.

* GMT -4/-5 alias EST (Eastern Standard Time)

* Pretty much any genre goes. I just like to build a story and have character development.

Languages: Korean. English.
Background: Growing up on the east side means a lot of obvious things for his childhood. He had one parent that was a druggie and the other an alcoholic. He ended up becoming close to the son of his parents' drug dealer, who became his best friend. Even though only one of his parents was really addicted, they both dabbled recreationally. He had become a runner at a young age, which was how he eventually met the boss he has now. He and his best friend ended up being taken in by that boss, figuring he could provide something resembling a better life for the boys while he also won some extra hands and some young, quick feet while he was at it. Not that his parents wanted him anyway since they could use the money to feed him for their own vices, like they'd been doing all along anyway. Most of his food, as a kid, was stolen by his own little hands. He never snuck or stole drugs but had been given a couple of pills here and there and just liked the way it numbed him to how fast life around him seemed to be going and the simple fact that he never seemed able to keep up. Once he finally was able to switch up roles, he had some free time to himself and discovered the band, in the making at the time, Crown for the Preachers and taught himself bass as they all learned varying instruments to form their band. They've officially been able to do shows for the past couple of years. Runs protection for his gang now but still messes around with pills he gets, at this point, for free. He has a scar hidden under his neck tattoo that came from his best friend being kicked out of the band and him "allowing" it; his best friend wanted and made a very blunt attempt to cut out his voice box in front of the other bandmates. Part of him wanted to fight back but he didn't because he didn't want to hurt his best friend more. He's still willing to be best friends with them but it's been a while since they've talked, and it does make him sad to think about it.

What makes this character happy? When the world feels and sounds quiet.
Is the character often biased? Honestly, only toward his band members. Not even his gang gets that privilege.
Does the character prefer to give or to take? Depends on the person but he's secretly more of a giver. You get on his good side and he'll fight until the end for you, and still then some.

Past
First memory: When he first met the one who became his best friend in some alleyway where they'd turned trashcans, giant waste receptacles and apartment fire escapes into a playground.

Dream job: A drummer, actually.
Past failures he would be embarrassed to have people know about: Letting his parents attack and abuse him like he did, how he let them make him feel weak and vulnerable.
Why? That's not at all the kind of person that he is now. He becomes someone different, almost like he snaps, if someone even thinks for a moment that they can take advantage of him in any way.
