Absolutely! Give me a bit to make Muse A. He'll be about 28, by the way. -
Lol why do you say that?
Okay cool! I'll type my character after I'm finished with my response. -
I hardly ever name my plots now. You seem to come up with them on the spot, and this one in particular is pretty clever.
Okay! c: -
I'm iffy on how I did this but oh well
Name: Oliver Kepner
Nickname: Oli
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Gay
Appearance: Oli has a thin figure and is very pale. He has natural bright orange curly hair, its cut shorter on the sides but kept longer in the front (but its still long on the sides). He has very big dark blue eyes that make him look very innocent. He's somewhat short standing at 5'3 and has freckled covering most his body, they cover his cheeks, neck, and shoulders but get lighter as it moved down his arms, he has them getting lighter as they go down his back a few stray ones are on his ass. He has a freckle in between his index and middle finger but because of where it is it looks like a heart.
Personality: Oli comes from a very rich, protected and somewhat paranoid family, he was always "homeschooled" because of potential threats of them leaving the estate so he was only able to leave on rare occasions. This ended up making him a very innocent person, he doesn't have many practical skills because he wasn't taught to need them. He has an extensive amount of book knowledge, it being the only way he was ever forced to learn but other than he is nowhere near what he should be. When he was eighteen he snuck out of the house once and met Travis (Le boyfriend) and ended up really getting along and stuff~, this led to him eventually coming out to his parents, which landed him out on the street, he ended up moving in with Travis. As Travis' personality started to change so did Oli's, Oli developed a bit more, personality wise, but not a lot as he was still told not to leave the house, again, unless it was with Travis. Oli is very quiet and timid when people he doesn't know are around, he can get embarrassed somewhat easily in crowds. He can get hurt easily but bounces back quite quickly like a child, he can be a bit overly emotional but try's to hide it, one because he doesn't like acting like a child and two because it bugs Travis because it makes him really annoying. -
I'm going to post my character in a moment, just finding a face claim and adding a few things.

Name: Bayless Czerny
Nickname: Bay
Age: 29
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Pansexual
Physical Appearance: Bayless Czerny
Personality: Bayless has always been the 'father friend,' which is odd because you always hear about the mom-friend, but never the dad-friend. However, from the playground to graduation, Bayless has always taken a gentle leading role towards his peers. He's usually the first one his friends go to when they need advice, and he always finds some way to help them. He's not overly-friendly but he finds it in himself to be kind to everyone, regardless of how they treat him. He's well-mannered, and though he'll say most of it is to set a good example for his kids, Bayless doesn't drop the so-called "act" even when they're not around. All that said, he does have an exceptionally short temper, and is fairly strict with his kids. And, he's always been a little bit reckless, especially when he was younger.
Biography: Bayless was 15, a freshman, when he started dating a girl from the senior class at his high school. The relationship escalated quickly, and one morning after a party, he found himself waking up naked next to her, head pounding, no memory of the night before. Nine months later, Percy was born.
He had long since broken up with the girl, and having been kicked out by his parents, was living with his uncle while trying to co-parent Percy and graduate at the same time. Around the end of his senior year, both Percy and his mother disappeared, sent away by the girl's parents. Heartbroken by losing his toddler, Bayless tried to distract himself with studying. When that didn't work, he began having short flings with several different people, earning himself a bit of a reputation at the small university he was attending. Around the time his second child, Rosemary was born, he established himself in his field and made enough money that her mother, not wanting the "burden" of a child, signed full custody over to him. It was only a few days later that Percy, now five years old, was dropped on his doorstep, his mother nowhere to be found.
While Bayless had felt confident raising one child, two was a different story, and he found himself enlisting the help of a childhood friend, who had since started a career as a teacher, the two moving in together to raise the kids. The two men hit it off, however, and by the time Percy was eight and Rosemary was three, they were married. Although ostracized completely by both their families, Bayless was happy.
Happy enough, and well-off enough that they felt confident adopting a child. The idea of one turned into two when they stumble across six-year-old Marina and her one-year-old brother, March.
Seven months, two weeks and three days. That was exactly how long Bayless's life remained perfect. And then, a police officer was pulling him out of his office before noon, taking him to a private hall, and quietly informing him that, sir we're so sorry but your husband was involved in a collision this morning, he was declared dead at the scene.
For a while, his life was in stand-still, but Bayless could only grieve for so long. Woth the help of his friends, he got his life back together and slowly adjusted to being a single parent. Now, if he could just figure out how to let someone back in.
Other: Works as an author and screen-writer for several different magazines and news-outlit stations through a company. Often works from home.
-Children-
Percy: Oldest, fourteen. Headstrong and stubborn, prone to having an attitude and back-talking, but at the end of the day, he's fiercely loyal to his father and siblings. He has ADHD and often struggles with school, but keeps his grades up so that he can play soccer.
Marina: Second-oldest, twelve. Your stereotypical pre-teen girl. Obsessed with glitter and Boy Bands. She's an honor-roll student and a member of her school's theatre organization, but never lets her dad come to her performances because she doesn't want him to see her mess up.
Rosemary: Nine, middle child. Dad's self-titled favorite. Absolute drama queen, and extremely loud. Currently wants to be an astronaut, but also realllly likes cats, and Percy told her they don't allow pets on the space station.
March: The baby, now six years old. He still isn't talking, and Bayless is sure that he won't at this point. Voted most-likely to wake Dad up during a thunderstorm. Attends a special school for mute, deaf and blind children, and exceeds at literally everything he does. -

The restaurant Charlie had given him the address to was up-town, small with brick smooth brick walls and a red-tile roof. The establishment wasn't strictly formal or expensive, but Charlie's wife had advised him to call ahead and get a reservation, so Bayless had done just that, putting the table under his best-friend's last name, one his blind date would easily remember.
The girl was hand-picked by both Charlie and his spouse, apparently the owner of an off-beat cafe that Bayless couldn't pronounce the name of. She was mature and friendly, easy to get along with. Charlie had rattled off a grocery list of good qualities, and though none of them sounded particularly spectacular to Bayless, he easy agreed. That was the easy part. Handing over his four kids to his best friend for the night, that took a little more convincing, but Charlie had more than insinuated (wiggling eyebrows and all) and Bayless should take her out for a drink afterwards, and then go back to her place.
As if. He'll be out of here by nine, ten tops. Maybe he'll even swing by and grab the kids, that way he can be the one to take Marina to her dance practice tomorrow. And afterwards, he'll take them all for ice cream, even though Percy does <i>not </i> deserve it after the stunt he pulled last week-
Bayless allows his attention to be grabbed as the door swings open, but the people who enter certainly aren't his dates. With a sigh, he checks his watch. Twenty minutes late.
