"I am not I.
I am this one
walking beside me whom I do not see,
whom at times I manage to visit,
and whom at other times I forget;
who remains calm and silent while I talk,
and forgives, gently, when I hate,
who walks where I am not,
who will remain standing when I die." -Juan Ramón Jiménez

Bean's name; Plato
Short Personality;
Plato is, in every sense, filled with a voided amount of emotions. He sees everything in wonder, right in the moment, things he can not replicate, the amazement of the second, what he can't seem to remember later on. But, even if he can't fully re-tell the stories that he was so very immersed in right then, back in whenever, he wouldn't trade the way he looks at things for the world itself.
He is audacious at the most surprising times, quick with his emotions. He shows how he's feeling flawlessly, heart placed on his sleeve and pridfully so, it is something he is unable to stop. If Plato's crush shows up he starts swooning without a pause of breath, if he sees something he likes he sets on a a rampage of gentle gleeful giggles out of his control, and it is no challenge to tell if he's had a nightmare with the obvious shaken expression that he puts on his face.
This little boy can get quite startled and start over-thinking in a very negative way. He is a bit of a scaredy cat and a crybaby, his ability to judge himself, and believe negative situations brought up around him are his own fault, is unexaggeratedly strong and is the reason for his easily stunted emotions. But, he does fight that internal mauling of himself, his own shaky self-esteem.
He is a sublet boy, placed sitting in his mind, thinking and wondering. Plato goes on his own way, affectionately doting over his family, friends, and interests with an air of selflessness most could not muster up. He lacks the ire needed for a young child growing up in a rueful, fast, cynical, lovely world, and his innocence seems to grow like a plush cloud every so often as he does.

Would you be willing to keep in touch every so often or more?; Definitely, I'm open to giving the family my Skype info and talking about Plato or whatever is needed/wanted.
[The inner details that make you up]
Interests: [Click on the interest to be led to an image]
Astronomy: The day and night skies have always held Plato like flames holds a moth. He is wonderfully mesmerized by the different planets far up above the atmosphere, how they have multiple moons, their states and their very skies. He spends a lot of his time studying and learning about space, the different universes and multiple cosmos.
Magic: Truthfully speaking, Platos interest in magic came to form haphazardly. One part from a very subpar birthday magician, another from watching gaudy tricks on evening cartoons, and lastly from the very magical nightmares that he seems to have. He, only from time to time, likes to preform magic shows for his family, creating allusions in the real world like the ones he saw in his dreams. Although, mainly his interest in supernatural and mysterious forces, coming via his nighttime imagination, is used for very magic-esque story telling. He's got a dream journal almost filled to the brim with magical tales, he uses it to cope with the wracked nerves brought on by his nightmares in the middle of the night.
Nature: His love of nature leads Plato out and exploring regularly, he finds solace in the natural peace and serenity the wildernesss offers. In his view there is endless beauty out there, for intrepid exploring and understanding. He could spend hours out in the heart of nature, sketching different bits of the world and watching it go by, smiling at how the wind shakes leaves up atop trees, and the way squirrels skitter about carefully.
Books: With love of reading that is ever-expanding, Plato has a large collection of books in his house. Half of these books are ones that started blank and that he filled up with his own words and pictures. From romance novels, which as a genre, are his personal favorite, to scientific non-fiction, his other favorite, his collections brims. Plato is known for his adoration of books, and his ability to spend hours reading, learning and getting captivated by the words and the information books present.
Crushes: Plato tends to make a 'thing' out of crushes, the meaning of this is that, for him, it's almost an uncontrollably hobby of sorts, falling for people that is. He has gotten strangely used to an amassement of crushes, though that may stem from his overall interest in romantic plots and subplots.

In his pouch:
The story of the the stars- Also known as Plato's astronomy book, he's scribbled in it and written in it ever since the book was given to him. Back then he was eight- nine maybe, quite meek and quiet compaired to most other kids he knew, but with an interest in the stars. Although Plato has changed in some ways his love of the universe, space and stars, and galaxies has only grown over time. This book is one of his most treasured items, within it are pages upon pages of intricately drawn diagrams with information surrounding them, and paragraphs about different parts of space, things he's genuinely interested in remembering for years.
Teddy- Mister Teddy has been Platos go to companion since the very beginning, he can barely remember the day he got Mister Teddy, way back when he was a toddler exploring through a garage sale until the starry tummies Mister Teddy lit up his gaze.
Pencil box- At a young age Plato met Faun, and Faun sparked Platos avid admiration in art. Nowadays Plato carries, with him a pencil box with the essentials plus a few extra things, and practices drawing whatever he can, whenever the spark of art hits him. Many of his notebooks and class assignment are littered with sketches, and he'd feel awfully run down if he misplaced his special little pencil box.
Glow sticks- To simply put it, glow sticks feeds his desired interest in bright luminescent things. Whenever he gets scared in the dark he'll try to brave through it, and if he can't he'll gently pull one out and distract himself, although nowadays this strategy can be used wether there is darkness or light. He uses glow sticks as a sorts of coping device.
Headphones- As if there wasn't enough, these small black headphones are for mainly hiding purposes of sorts. Plato uses them to seem busy infront of his crush/s, but he's steadily started writing up a list of songs to actually listen to at times, instead of flittering about with nervousness in his brain, still the headphones are a distractor.
Hair bands: Platos collection of hairbands is quit unique, because of his interest in biolumescent things many of his hairbands are of the glowing variety. Glowing things attract his eyes.
Hair brushes- Three in total. Two very small colorful hairbrushes, and one larger brown hairbrush, all to handle his curly hair. Plato adores having his hair done and made differently, so it isn't unnatural to see him walking around with a different hairstyle every other week, and even less so to see that he carries three different brushes.
Random things- This young bean tends to get mesmerized by quite a lot, so it is no coincidence if you find flowers petals, buttons and twigs loitering up in his pouch.

Platos future: In all honesty Platos future will just form with time, but there are some aspects of him that will definitely grow and flourish with more and more time. His little teddy will stay with him as a memory for years, it may be given to one of his children, or one of his siblings later on, but before that it'll be a precious little treasure in his keep. His love of astronomy will only grow deeper, and Plato will fill up many blank books with his astronomy studies, and spend endless nights with a telescope scoping the vastness of the universe when he should be sleeping. He will also pick up writing a variety of stories as he ages, filling up his bookcases with self-written and fully published works of romance, adventure, science, mystery and more. He won't be quite as startled, self judging or as innocent truthfully speaking, but he may retain his meeker qualities and habits, over-thinking negatively and seeing problems as his fault. His memory probably will get better, and worse at the same time, though he'll always be someone that is astounded by the vivid moment.
