Haymitch Abernethy

Appearance: He has an oval face with smooth, fair skin. He has expressive blue eyes, a straight, neat nose, and full, naturally pink lips. He has light, wavy hair with curls falling over his forehead and ears.
Haymitch is a kind, responsible, and loving guy. He works to help his mother and younger brother, Sid, and protects his loved ones. He still has hope and warmth within him; he doesn't drink and he's not broken.
How he loves
He's open and warm. He doesn't play the cold guy, isn't shy about holding hands in public, offering compliments, or writing notes. For him, love isn't a weakness, but something he's proud of.

How does he express his feelings?
He sings. Not for the stage, but for her—quietly, at home, when no one can hear. Or he whistles a melody they've created together. Words come easier to him in song than in conversation.

How does he behave in a couple?
Caring down to the mundane: he'll bring water, fix the roof, walk you home, even if he's tired after work. Jealous, but not toxic: he'd rather frown and remain silent than make a scene. He'll eventually admit what hurt him. Stubborn: if you have a fight, he'll be gloomy, but he'll be the first to make peace. He's bad at apologizing, but good at taking action.

What is most important to him?
He's a protector. Not in words, but in deeds. If someone has wronged his person, Haymitch won't threaten them, he'll simply sort it out. And then he'll spend a long time checking to make sure everything is alright.

What is he like in everyday life?
He teases, but in a kind way. He laughs rarely, but it's infectious. He can sit next to you for hours in silence, and it's not awkward, but cozy. He's a terrible cook, but he tries. He remembers little things: how much she likes tea, what song she likes, what she's afraid of.

What breaks him?
The thought that he's not good enough for her. That he can't give her a normal life. That one day he'll have to choose between her and his family, and he's afraid he'll choose the wrong one.
