• Gender: Cis Man
• Pronouns: He/They
• Orientations: Aromantic (Bellusromantic), Gay*

  • Remus Sanchez - Fraternal Twins
  • Janus Drivas - Sexual/QPP ("No Romo")

  • Logan Houlmes - Platonic Friends
  • Virgil Baskoro - Platonic Friends
• Occupation(s):
  • Telemarketer (Customer Service Representative, sometimes)
  • Freelance Artist & Writer (post-CKD)
  • Aspiring Actor/Musician
• Favorite Exercises:
  • Anything that can be measured, constantly wanting to improve his Personal Bests. Whether it’s rep counts, weight, time, distance… gawd damn over-achiever.
  • Partial to pumping iron and sparring with Virgil and Remus
  • Generally also works out to exhaustion, to help him sleep easier. Of the lot, the most prone to over-training. (To Janus’s chagrin.)
• Orthopedic Considerations:
  • Bum/unstable left shoulder thanks to family shittiness. (The twins’ extended fam were garbage.)
• Potential Long-Term Health Issues:
  • Chronic Kidney Disease (Stage 1→3) - Thanks to both times he was hospitalized for rhabdomyolysis. Among many other considerations - he needs to be a lot more careful with taking OTC/Rx meds and stuff like caffeine.
    • Mostly experienced as fatigue episodes (+reduced/fluctuating spoons), itching, and restless leg syndrome. Sometimes fluid retention.
    • Secondary Clinical Depression - caused and aggravated by the above. (And childhood experiences predisposed this.)
  • May wind up with a few V-tach episodes (cardiac issue) thanks to janky electrolytic balancing between remembering to restore them and the compromised kidneys. And also a history of excessive use of caffeine + not enough sleep.
  • Early-onset osteoarthritis in his bum shoulder, occasionally wears a brace on bad days. (’Cause traumatic dislocations often do leave behind lasting damage.)
• Other Background Info:
  • Twice Exceptional. His challenges outshone his giftedness (in the shitty extended family’s eyes). Guy has pretty bad memory for things not related to the arts in some way (which he’s actually extremely talented in), so he struggled a lot with other subjects in school (and some of his autobiographical memory is spotty). He’s got anxiety over not trying hard enough, not doing enough. So he also has a lot of problems with sleep too.
  • Undertreated/Undiagnosed ADD. His "guardian" didn't believe in the possibility, thought of as a cop out / excuse... when it really wasn't. It didn't help that Roman learned to mask really well, to compensate.
  • Neglected Dyscalculia (moderate). A big reason he struggled so much in STEM classes. And it wasn't in his family's vocabulary (except for Remus, at some point.)
