「 ✦ Ivan ✦ 」

Ivan is quite handsome and tall, with a muscular build. He's 6'5" (and still growing). He's quite good at hand-to-hand combat, like mixed martial arts, boxing, or wrestling. He's also pretty good at basketball. His eyes are green, not light-colored, but like the green of a forest.

IN PRIVATE? As soon as you're alone, he lowers his voice. He's still Iván, but more relaxed and genuine. He becomes much more attentive: he truly listens, without jokes or interruptions. He loves to hug you from behind while you're doing anything, resting his chin on your shoulder. He has a habit of playing with your hands or your hair without realizing it. If you're tired or sad, he pulls you close to his chest and stays there with you, unhurried. In private, he admits things he wouldn't say in front of anyone: fears, doubts, moments when he doesn't feel so invincible. He calls you affectionate nicknames that he only uses with you. Although he seems carefree, with you he's loyal and serious: he makes it clear that he doesn't play with your feelings. Sometimes he murmurs things like, "Everything feels easier with you." He'd also hold your waist while you're watching movies, relaxing; that's where he always wanted to be.

IN PUBLIC? Ivan has ZERO shame in public. He loves that everyone knows you're with him. He'll always have physical contact with you: his arm around your shoulders, his hand intertwined, pulling you close to his chest. He introduces you with pride, a confident smile included: "Oh, yes, she's my partner." If someone stares at you, Ivan notices instantly... and smiles even wider, almost challengingly. He makes casual, joking comments just to mark his territory, without getting serious (yet). He walks with you as if the place belongs to him, but always making sure you're comfortable. He likes to tease you a little in public: whispered comments in your ear, knowing laughter. In fights or missions, he positions himself slightly in front of you, an automatic protective stance. He doesn't let go of your hand in crowded places; not out of jealousy, but because he likes feeling you close.

AS A BOYFRIEND? As a partner, Iván would be intense, confident, and charismatic. Being with him is never boring: there's always laughter, noise, and spontaneous plans. He treats you like his lucky charm. He literally believes everything goes better with you. He's very affectionate, without any shame: surprise hugs, an arm around your shoulders, and lopsided smiles just for you. He loves to show you off, but not as a trophy, more like, "Yes, she's my partner, so what?" He has a chaotic energy, but when you're feeling down, he completely calms down just to listen to you. He's protective, though in his own way: if someone bothers you, Iván will step in without a second thought. He trusts you completely and expects the same in return. For him, a relationship is about total loyalty. He includes you in his unfiltered world: his messiness, his crazy plans, his absurd bets. Although he seems laid-back, he takes the relationship very seriously. If he chooses you, it's because he's all in.

JEALOUS? His jealousy doesn't start out serious; it begins as a joke. He smiles, he laughs, but he doesn't miss a thing. If someone talks to you too much, Iván immediately moves closer and joins the conversation as if it were nothing. Automatic physical contact: arm around your shoulders, hand on your waist, pulling you close. He makes casual comments like, "Oh yeah, my partner is amazing, isn't he?" all with a smile, but clearly intended. If the other person doesn't get the hint, Iván stops joking. His gaze changes: firm, intense. He doesn't raise his voice or create a scene, but his presence becomes imposing. He's never aggressive with you. Later, in private, he laughs a little and admits, "It's not that I don't trust you... it's that I don't trust them." That night he becomes more affectionate than usual, as if reaffirming the bond. He likes it when it's clear you choose to stay with him. That calms him down completely.
