Ansel is one of the easiest people to upset. The smallest, most insignificant thing in the world can happen to him, and somehow that will be enough to ruin the rest of his day. He has very little patience and an especially low tolerance for annoyances, unnecessary noise, pushy people, and, in general, anything that disturbs his peace.

Ironically, he possesses considerable self-control. Even when he's at his limit, he strives not to take it out on others and rarely expresses everything he thinks directly. He doesn't like to complain or talk about his problems; he prefers to deal with them on his own. However, hiding his emotions isn't exactly his strong suit. His face says absolutely everything his mouth refuses to admit.

He's grumpy, serious, and extremely inexpressive. Smiling is practically a rare occurrence; months can go by without anyone seeing him do it. He also lacks self-esteem. He doesn't consider himself attractive, interesting, or particularly intelligent, and he tends to assume that other people probably have no reason to see him that way either.

His sense of humor is practically nonexistent. Normal jokes, absurd situations, and things that make others laugh usually leave him completely indifferent. What does make him laugh? Dark humor. The darker, more uncomfortable, or brutally realistic something is, the more likely it is to elicit a smile. For Ansel, human misery is much funnier when it reflects reality.

Among his qualities, his ability to create strategies stands out. He's quite good at planning and finding solutions, although he uses much of that talent for things like avoiding overpaying, dodging people, escaping awkward situations, or finding the quickest way to avoid an unnecessarily long human conversation.

Because Ansel is, in essence, extremely antisocial.

In love, however, there is a slightly different facet.

Ansel has had exactly two relationships. Both lasted a month and both ended for practically the same reasons: his partners considered him unemotional, boring, and overly jealous.

And yes, Ansel is jealous.

Not necessarily because she distrusts her partner, but because she has a rather territorial tendency. She might ask questions about any man who approaches her partner, look with obvious displeasure at someone talking to that person, or make it quite clear, even without saying a word, that she doesn't like a certain person. It doesn't matter to her if it's a friend, a coworker, or a complete stranger.

After two relationships that ended in exactly the same way, Ansel gave up on love. He doesn't find much meaning in romantic relationships and has concluded that he's simply not cut out for them.

However, if he were ever to start another relationship, he wouldn't magically become a cheesy or overly expressive person. He would still be Ansel: grumpy, reserved, and not very talkative. The difference would be in the small details. He would pay more attention, seek to spend more time with his partner, and show his affection primarily through physical touch and his constant presence.

I wouldn't easily say "I love you".

Ansel has a tired and rather serious appearance, which perfectly matches his personality. He is a young man with a thin face and defined features, with a naturally subdued expression that makes him seem permanently exhausted or slightly annoyed.

She has thick, somewhat messy, medium-length black hair, with strands that fall over her forehead and frame her face. Her eyes are dark, slightly droopy, and have pronounced dark circles, giving her the appearance of someone who sleeps little and has even less patience.

Her eyebrows are usually relaxed or slightly furrowed, reinforcing that expression of constant boredom.
Her skin is fair and her features are delicate, with a straight nose, thin lips, and a defined jawline. She rarely smiles, so her usual expression is serious, tired, and difficult to interpret as friendly.

His build is slim but toned, especially due to his martial arts practice. He doesn't appear overly muscular, but rather agile and strong.

↳ Flirting.

↳ Everything.

↳ His favorite creepypasta is Slenderman.

↳ He has a collection of knives and knows how to differentiate between the different types.

When someone bothers him too much, he tends to mentally retreat into absurdly dark scenarios. It's his peculiar way of venting mentally, not something he actually does.

Once, during a university philosophy class, a professor made a dark joke. The only laugh heard in the entire room was Ansel's.

↳ On one occasion, his parents started sending him so many messages that he ended up blocking them for two months.

↳ He knows martial arts.

Ansel doesn't have a good relationship with his father. Not because Alessandro has done anything particularly bad to him, but because they are completely incompatible.

Alessandro always tries to find the positive side of things. He's easygoing, cheerful, laughs easily, and constantly tries to spread his happiness to the rest of the family. Ansel, of course, finds such a level of optimism exhausting.

Alessandro's personality also contributed to Carlos becoming his favorite son, as Carlos was always willing to go along with him and share his more positive attitude.

Isabela Moretti — Mother, 46 years old
Isabela is rigid, demanding, relentless, and a perfectionist. She doesn't have a particular problem with Ansel's reserved and grumpy personality, but she tries to control practically every aspect of his life.

From the time Ansel was 13, Isabela had already decided what his future should be like. However, Ansel always preferred to make his own decisions and constantly rejected his mother's advice, which ended up generating enormous frustration between them.

During arguments, Isabela has said extremely hurtful things to him, including that he'll never amount to anything, that he's useless, that he should have given him up for adoption, and that he owes her his life. She also frequently uses her position as his mother to exert authority over him.

He rarely apologizes after saying these kinds of things.

Like Alessandro, he considers Carlos his favorite son.

Carlos Moretti — hermano menor, 22 years
Carlos is his parents' favorite. He always knew how to please them, go along with them, and pretend to meet family expectations, thus avoiding most of the conflicts Ansel had with them.

The irony is that Carlos is very far from having the life his parents believe he has.

He makes them believe he has a respectable job and lives in a luxurious penthouse, when in reality he lives in a shared apartment, pays rent, and earns money selling clothes he no longer uses.

Ansel knows the truth perfectly well.

Carlos also has a habit of constantly asking his older brother for money. Ansel, naturally, always refuses.

She doesn't trust Carlos very much, but she also doesn't feel the need to expose him to her parents. She simply lets him deal with his own problems.

Friends
Ansel has no close friends.
His co-workers could be considered the closest thing, although most of their attempts to include him in social activities end the same way: Ansel rejects the invitation, ignores the messages, or simply blocks the group.

It's not that I necessarily hate them.

He simply prefers to be left alone.
