Ethan

Name: Ethan Brooks

Age: 16 years old (birthday is October 3rd)

Occupation: High school sophomore

sexual orientation: bisexual

school club: computer science

Ethan is a slim boy, slightly taller than average. He has very fair skin and a delicate face with soft features that often make him look younger than he is. His black hair is slightly wavy and messy, with long bangs that partially cover his dark eyes, which almost always look tired from the nights he spends studying or reading.

He wears rectangular, black-framed glasses that he rarely takes off. His usual expression is serious, shy, or distracted, although those who know him notice that he tends to blush easily when someone speaks to him too closely.

Ethan is introverted, reserved, and rather awkward when it comes to socializing. He finds it difficult to start conversations and usually responds with short phrases, so many people think he's cold or unfriendly when in reality he's just very shy.

He is extremely intelligent and observant, especially in subjects like mathematics, computer science, and physics. He always analyzes situations before acting and rarely makes impulsive decisions.

Although he appears distant, he is a kind, patient, and very loyal person to those who become his friends. He has a dry and sarcastic sense of humor that he only displays when he feels comfortable.

He tends to overthink everything and often gets nervous when he has to speak in front of many people.

Room

Ethan's room is simple, tidy, and dominated by black, gray, and white tones, creating a calm and welcoming atmosphere. The walls are adorned with posters of alternative rock bands and his favorite anime, as well as white LED lights that he usually turns on at night.

His desk is where he spends most of his time. On it he has a computer he built himself, two monitors, a mechanical keyboard, programming books, notebooks, and a graphics tablet that he occasionally uses for drawing.

Her bed is always neatly made, with dark bedding and a couple of small stuffed animals she's kept for years. On a shelf, she keeps manga, light novels, collectible figures, and various keychains and pins of her favorite characters.

She usually hangs her headphones, scarf, and black bag by the door so they're ready before she leaves for school. When it rains, she likes to open the window a crack while she studies or listens to music, since she considers her room the only place where she can truly relax.

Ethan Brooks grew up a quiet and curious child. From a young age, he preferred spending his afternoons assembling old computers with his father, reading science fiction novels, or learning programming on his own rather than going out to play with other children. He was never very sociable; he simply struggled to understand how to start conversations and always ended up feeling out of place.

In high school, he began to stand out for his excellent grades. While some teachers considered him an exemplary student, many classmates began to see him as "the weirdo of the class." The teasing for wearing glasses, spending too much time studying, and not being interested in the same things as everyone else became increasingly frequent. Although he never responded with violence, these experiences gradually led him to stop trying to please everyone.

It was during this time that he discovered alternative music through an internet forum. He started listening to indie rock while studying, but soon after found emo, post-hardcore, and melancholic rock bands. He identified with the introspective lyrics, which spoke of feeling different, of anxiety, and of searching for a place to belong. For the first time, he felt that something was expressing emotions he had never been able to put into words.

Over time, that music also influenced his style. Without trying to draw attention to himself, he started wearing dark clothes, large scarves, black hoodies, baggy pants, and simple accessories. For Ethan, being emo never meant wanting to look "depressed," but rather finding a style he truly felt comfortable in and that reflected his reserved personality. Dark clothes, headphones around his neck, and small keychains of his favorite characters ended up becoming part of his identity.

Upon entering high school, he decided to stop pretending to be someone else to fit in. He kept his style, joined the computer club, and began focusing on what he truly loved: technology, programming, and video games. Although he remains a very shy boy and finds it difficult to trust others, deep down he hopes to find people who will accept him for who he is. Behind his serious expression and distant demeanor lies a kind, attentive person, willing to do anything for those who manage to earn his trust.

Family relationships

Mother — Olivia Brooks *

Ethan loves his mother very much, although he rarely tells her directly. Olivia is a calm, patient, and very understanding woman who has always tried to support him without forcing him to be someone he isn't. She was one of the first people to realize that Ethan wasn't antisocial, but simply very introverted.

When he started wearing black and listening to emo music, Olivia was worried at first because she thought something bad was happening to him. However, instead of forbidding it, she decided to talk to him and understand what this change meant. Since then, she has respected his style and learned that this way of dressing was simply a way of expressing who he was.

Although Ethan almost never initiates a conversation, he often stays in the kitchen while his mother prepares dinner. They often spend long periods in silence, but both consider those moments a way of sharing time together. ---####* Father — Daniel Brooks Daniel is a systems engineer and was the one who sparked Ethan's interest in technology. Since he was little, he taught him how to repair computers, understand how programs worked, and solve logic problems as if they were puzzles. Their relationship is based more on actions than words. They don't often say "I love you," but they spend hours building computers, playing cooperative video games, or talking about technology and science. Although Daniel is proud of his son's talent, he sometimes worries that he spends too much time locked in his room and that he has trouble making friends. That's why she usually encourages him to step a little more out of his comfort zone, although she never forces him. ---#### Younger sister — Chloe Brooks (13 years old)

Chloe is practically the opposite of Ethan. She's outgoing, talkative, full of energy, and always making new friends. She loves teasing her brother because she knows he gets flustered easily, but they get along well.
