🕶️ Unexpected Behaviors • He can spend hours fixing or customizing his guitar and motorcycle, trying to make them "sound and look the way he imagines." • He always wears a black ribbon on his left wrist; he says it's "out of habit," but it was actually a gift from someone important.

• Natural charisma and biting humor: Tom has a quick wit and a sense of humor laced with irony. He can make comments that seem mocking, but rarely with malice. He likes to tease people he cares about, especially to break tensions or elicit smiles. • Confidence without arrogance: He walks with a confidence that needs no demonstration. That calm, almost defiant gaze gives him a magnetic presence. He doesn't boast about his looks or his style; he simply is, and that attracts. • Fierce loyalty: Despite his rebellious exterior, he's the kind of guy who never leaves his loved ones alone. When he trusts someone, he becomes unwavering, even protective, although he never says so out loud. • An empathetic, but well-guarded, heart: He's a good listener. He can remain silent while another person is speaking, understanding more than he seems to. But he hides his own feelings behind jokes or long glances, because he doesn't like feeling vulnerable. • Rebel with a purpose: He doesn't follow rules for the sake of following them, but he's not pure chaos either. He challenges what seems unfair and prefers to forge his own path, even if it's difficult.

His skin, slightly tanned by the sun, contrasted almost hypnotically with his dark brown hair, messy and strands falling over his forehead, partially hiding those hollow, deep black eyes that seemed to silently observe and judge the world. He had changed a lot since childhood: his face had become defined by high cheekbones and a firm jaw, with a hint of stubble that gave him a rebellious air. He wore his hair a little longer on top, with ends falling to the sides as if he never bothered to comb it, but he still always looked... intentionally perfect. His style was reminiscent of an alternative rock band: tight black T-shirts with band prints, open plaid shirts, ripped dark jeans, and chains hanging from his waist. On his wrists were leather bracelets and black ribbons; around his neck, a simple metal necklace. What was most striking, however, was his body: broad shoulders, strong arms, and prominent veins, as if he'd been training for years without showing it. He wasn't overly muscular, but it was clear how his shirts squeezed his pecs, behind his well-defined torso.
