⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀◈ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ alec carson ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀◈ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀basic info ; ◈ ; alec carson ◈ ; 18-23 ◈ ; april 12th ◈ ; half african american, born in california, half white ◈ ; male, he / him ◈ ; straight [he's not. he's definitely not.] ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀appearence + clothing ◈ ; alec stands at 6'2" with a pretty mesomorphic, sturdy body type. he has broad, toned shoulders that lead down to muscular arms as well as quite the muscular legs, too, though he doesn't wear shorts enough for you to tell all that much. he also has a nice six-pack and tends to be one of those annoying guys who randomly throws off his shirt in the middle of practice. he has a sharper jawline that makes his face quite attractive. his brown eyes pair well with his brown hair, usually combed and styled neatly, or in an attractively messy sort of way. his similarly-colored eyebrows are usually furrowed, which likely accounts to his rbf. if you look closely, his smooth skin is interrupted by bruises and scars dotted about. some larger than others, some in places usually covered by long sleeves or pants. he sums these bruises up to football and just messing with his friends. his outfits vary though if i could describe them it'd be more "basic jock" than anything. jeans, usually not super tight or anything.. mainly in either navy or black, a neutral-colored t-shirt, maybe a jersey or a tank top if he's feeling fun, and a jacket thrown on top, usually his varsity jacket or a brown one he's had for years. he's pretty basic outfit-wise, not having much of a specific style or anything.

[cont] ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀personality ; ◈ ; sadly, alec tends to be your basic, stereotypical, mean jock. he's got it all--the tall, handsome, muscular looks, mean and arrogant.. but, in all honesty, he is nothing like that. this front is what he puts on for school. to make sure others don't mess with him. to make sure he stays at the top of the food chain instead of dropping down. though through this, he is still a pretty laid-back guy. he presents himself as this popular, great guy with a perfect life, good grades, a perfect girlfriend and a perfect spot on the football team. in reality, this is anything but true. he works multiple jobs to keep his family on their feet, takes care of practically everyone in it, and that leads me to this: he is actually really incredibly kind and caring. he definitely has empathy for people and though he will not hesitate to beat you up, he does feel bad for other's pain if he cares for them enough. he's very strong though, mentally and physically. he can protect himself well, but that also means setting up mental barricades to protect his mind from more harm than it's already been through. he's a natural-born leader as well as being quite competitive and works hard for what he wants. he's good in school, happening to be pretty smart and such just doesn't have the time to do much with his education or smarts. the only reason he really shows up to class is because he needs good grades to stay on the team. he's practical, resourceful, and accountable. he tries to be likable and charismatic, wanting others to like him and wanting to be fun to be around. he works very hard to make sure that others see him how he wants them to see him, and not as what his home life entails. that being said he is very private and secretive about many things. he tends to handle stress well, though sometimes it all builds up and he has a breakdown. which leads to another breakdown, because seeing himself so weak and vulnerable makes him hate himself. he does also get pretty overprotective and jealous easily, especially with s/o's or people he develops feelings for. he's a great liar, too, having practically lied his whole life and about his whole life. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀strenghts + weaknesses ◈ stengths ; very athletic and is good at pretty much all sports. he is very physically strong and muscular as well as mentally strong and fortified--seriously, it takes a while to get under his skin. he's laid-back, though that can be seen as both a strength and weakness he's not laid-back to the point he's a doormat. he definitely knows how to fight and stand his ground, too, verbally and physically. he's strangely good at making lattes ◈ weaknesses ; once those mental walls are down he's very vulnerable. vulnerable.. weak.. all that good stuff. if you got to him enough he'll see you as the only person to run to. though he refuses to tell anyone about anything going on, which makes getting help difficult. he hates swimming. he can swim, but hates it. it's a trauma-related thing.. [ when he was younger, his dad would throw him in the water and say that's how he learns how to swim. he almost drowned multiple times ] ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀extra facts ; ◈ ; alec lives with his mother, father, and younger sister named olivia. his father is a drunk who takes his anger out on alec and his mother is on her death bed with stage 4 mesothelioma [ lung cancer ] ◈ ; as said above, his father beats him quite often, mostly when he's drunk. alec plays football to have an excuse for all the bruises ◈ ; he's the quarterback on his team, surprisingly good at football despite it just being an excuse [ though it was a long-time hobby of his ] ◈ ; he has a fear of swimming / being in water or any kind of pool. more open water, like oceans, are sometimes okay. it depends. ◈ ; his worst fear is becoming like his dad ◈ ; he most definitely is not straight-- even his mom and sister suspect this highly and often tease about his male friends ◈ ; another cover-up, his girlfriend, emma. this is pretty canon in most rps [tho can be changed if / when needed]. it's the basic duo--quarterback and cheerleader captain--so it's more of a keeping-up-his-reputation kind of relationship. though he acts like he loves her it's pretty obvious it's not all that great for him. ◈ ; his girlfriend is also pretty possessive and all.. very "i'm his /girlfriend/ by the way!!" esque ◈ ; he works a ton of jobs to try and enough money for his family. he's the main provider, really, as his dad is a deadbeat and his mom is sick.. and his sister is too young. ◈ ; that being said he's a very good cook !! he can make pretty much anything out of anything ! [ p.s. don't ask what uniform those last two images are idek lmao- ] ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀◈
