marlow is a lone merman with
the tail of a lion fish. avoidin
g other members of his specie
s for as long as he can remem
ber, he lacks many social skill
s and ideologies of the merpe
ople. even so, he can't help b
ut find himself growing a stro
ng disliking for the human rac
e. he sees their actions as cru
el and full of pointless rage, t
hings the man could never agr
ee with under any circumstan
ces. try to change his mind──

if you're looking to understand this mess of a man, it's best
not to ask him because not even he gets himself. not one t
o show emotions outwardly, he is a hurricane within his ow
n head. he tends to avoid other vocal creatures as, whene
ver he's approached, he can't help but be overrun with pan
icked emotions; of course, you wouldn't be able to tell unl
ess you gave careful attention to his body language. if you
're simply observing him from the outside, you could easily
assume him to be cold, aloof, and insensitive. in reality, t
hough, the entire reason he acts the way he does is becau
se he cares too much about other beings. he's so fearful of
messing something up that he opts to not even hold relatio
nships of any kind. he assumes that if he avoids everything
, no trouble can be caused. no trouble, everyone is happy.

e best part of it all:he doesn't even realize the way he's ac
ting. he views himself as the sweet, compassionate, and o
verall benevolent guy he actually is inside, and genuinely
becomes confused when others push him away. past this f
law, if you manage to knock some sense into him, matheu
s is genuinely a good-humored man. he just feels left out.

good rhymes for bad times - bears in trees

there's electric tape around my shoes
to prevent them from breaking in two

there are broken things all over my room
old and borrowed, stolen and used
instruments that can't hold a tune
i recline on my mattress and become one too

i've never had satisfaction in the chemical reactions
that happen in my head

i'm treading water, i'm juggling knives
i'm doing both at the same time
dude, put down the blades and swim to the shore line
well, oh god, i've tried

── shin (l) "dean" dae-sung (f), but everyone unfortunately usually just calls him sunny
── twenty-two // male // panromantic demisexual // korean // monster - henry lau
── stands at exactly 6'2" // fairly muscular, works out daily // hair is dyed a deep red
── bachelor's degree in psychology, soon to be working towards master's in art therapy
── sunny's nn was given as a joke & just kinda stuck - originally given because everyon
e thought he was incapable of genuinely smiling or laughing (it takes a hell of a lot tbh)
── his stature and relatively unchanging neutral expression makes him kind of menacin
g at first glance. probably looks like he's constantly thinking about initiating a fist fight
── first impression is rough, tough, and closed off. usually a man of very few words un
less he's around someone he knows, but even then, he isn't the most talkative person
── bit of a loner outside of his tight-knit friend group. if he's not w/ them he's usually
sitting off by himself drawing in a notebook or aimlessly wandering around in thought
── can appear callous and uncaring to the outside eye, but the truth is the opposite
── type of person that claims he hates his friends 24/7, but everyone knows that the
y are (for the most part) his ride-or-dies and will defend them in nearly any situation
── incredibly patient and stoical. has great self-restraint and is able to to separate h
imself from heated situations with ease. the only case is which he may actually be te
mpestuous is when his friends or someone he cares for his threatened in some fashion
── a very emotional & complex person at heart, but he's simultaneously terrible at ou
twardly expressing feelings & not a fan of showing many emotions. unless he trusts you
and you get into a deep one on one conversation, you only ever get to see surfacelevel
── as previously stated, his facial expression is almost constantly at a neutral stance.
most of his emotions are inadvertently shown through body language and habits such a
s tugging his ears when he's in thought or chewing on his inner cheek when he's nervous
── if you ever manage to get a full-on genuine smile from him, you can go ahead and
say you've won the game. good friends will get little tilts of the outside corners of his
lips, but he'll only offer a toothy grin or a true laugh to those he trust w/ whole heart
── actually really good at reading people's body language and emotions when it comes
down to it. amazing person to come to if you need to get something off your shoulders
── honestly kinda upset by the fact people are hesitant to approach him, won't admit
── if you manage to stick with him long enough to get past the rocky exterior, sunny i
s a mega-softie and the definition of a sweetheart. the type of guy that'll pick up your
phone call asking for company at 3 am & will show up at your doorstep with a pizza
── stupidly sentimental with a scarily good memory when it comes to dates/events/d
etails. he'll remember everything from big gestures to that one time you held the door
── has little sideline attractions to some people, but it's rare for him to have a legit c
rush. hurt so much in the past that his heart is guarded. secretly really yearns for love
── despite being distant, if he fully trusts you, be prepared for no boundaries. v huggy
