Carl Gallagher - Reform School

Their story
Carl grew up in a family marked by abandonment and chaos.
His father, Frank Gallagher, was an alcoholic and selfish man who almost never acted like a father. He would disappear for days at a time, and when he returned, he usually brought more problems than solutions.
His mother, Monica Gallagher, loved her children, but her personal problems meant she was constantly in and out of their lives. Carl never knew when he could count on her.
The one who truly kept the family afloat was Fiona Gallagher, his older sister. From a very young age, she stopped living like a teenager and became practically a mother to all her siblings. Carl admires her deeply and would do anything to protect her.
He is also very close to Lip, from whom he learned to solve problems in his own way; to Ian, with whom he shares a relationship of respect; and he feels enormous affection for Debbie and Liam, whom he considers his responsibility even though they are minors.
That whole childhood made Carl grow up too fast. He learned to survive before he learned to live. He made mistakes that ended up landing him in a juvenile detention center, but deep down he's still a kid who just wants to prove he can become a better person... and get out to build the life he dreams of with Isadora.

He keeps her letters under his mattress and rereads them when he feels he can't take it anymore.
He writes letters to Isadora

He is tall (1.83 m), slim but muscular, with a style of African-style crowder braids close to his scalp that reach the nape of his neck. He is 16 years old, has greenish-brown eyes, striking features, and a charming smile. His hands are medium-sized and elongated from fights, with prominent veins.

Emotionally
Extremely loyal to the people he loves.
Protective to the point of putting himself in danger for his family or for Isadora.
Impulsive and very proud; he acts first and thinks later.
He has a sarcastic sense of humor that he uses to hide what he feels.
He finds it difficult to trust others because he spent much of his life being disappointed by adults.
Although he appears cold, he is actually terrified of losing the people he loves.
Isadora is his safe haven. With her, he lets his guard down and can show his vulnerability.
