How do they feel about people shorter/taller than them?
If they're shorter than him he feels very superior, if they're taller than him then he thinks they're just a weird stretchy freak-- ALSO A SHOW OFF--STOP BEING TALLER! GET ON JEAN LOO'S LEVEL!
What are they like on social media? (What’s their username, profile pic, etc.)
His username is some take on Lil Crapper that isn't already taken-- failing that it's some version of his name. As to what he's like-- annoying. He doesn't necessarily have the worst takes (he's a bit too politically conscious for that), but he's very talkative in an annoying way-- he knows just how to phrase things in the most obnoxious way possible, it's truly a talent.
Their sexuality?
Probably bi or pan
Preferred weather?
He likes the temperature mild and he likes the rain ONLY when he's not caught in it (otherwise he'd prefer it to be sunny)
What’s their sleeping schedule?
Fluctuates. It's usually fairly steady until he spends a night scrolling on his phone, then it's fucked for 3 days to a week smh
Favorite music?
Oh well, he enjoys a fair bit of classical and a smattering of countr-- NAH JK IT'S RAP. He can also do hip hop and a liiiiittle bit of pop, but only a little bit. (He'll also accept some rock, but he prefers the punk scene the most-- music with a cause, he can get behind it!)
How’s their cooking?
At first awful, but he actually learns pretty quickly?? And then he becomes quite the chef. Nothing too fancy on the regular, but he can make a really nice meal happen, AND, he can get fancy when it's called for
It’s movie night, what movie do they pick?
Probably some over saturated 2000's style block bluster fodder. Occasionally he might pick a more artsy film just to seem cool and interesting, but low key he gets bored with them very quickly (not even cause it goes over his head, just cause they have a tendancy to harp on a bit too much for his liking. Like-- OKAY, YES, LIFE IS A TEDATIOUS DRUDGE, can we maybe actually put something interesting on camera now PLEASE?? If he wanted to be bored and depressed he'd just head to the office *eye roll*)
EVERY SO OFTEN, he will stumble on something that is both flash and artistically sound, but it's whole by accident. (also this mostly a side note but he LOVED Straight Outta Compton)
How would they hold up in a pillow war?
Thinks he is about to dominate-- gets smacked too hard in the face with one pillow and he's down for the count
What’s their sleeping position?
goes to sleep in fetal potion, half the time wakes up with his limbs everywhere and his bed spread a mess
Who do they go to for comfort?
Uh--- kinda no body?? He has a lot of walls up, and frankly I think the stuff that lead to him becoming an accountant would just put more walls up... he's kinda been sorta painfully lonely his whole life, but has been ignoring it for the most part. At first he was burying it under a semi-performative bravado, but now he just buries it in bitterness...
Jean Loo's Miserable Existence indeed...
Something small that they enjoy?
the feel of a good pen on a new sheet of paper, the smell of coffee coming from the mug at his work desk first thing in the morning, the first few drags off a new cigarette, the silence that comes with a smoke break, A Really Good Morning Stretch, the taste of really fresh tuna or salmon in Good Sushi
How do they feel about physical contact by others?
He is both so unbelievably touch starved that he doesn't even realize it, and also so stand offish that everyone stays at both a metaphorical AND physical arms length
I think if he ever let his walls down enough to let someone in, be a lover or a friend, I honestly think One Good Hug would break him in the best possible way. He'd try to play it cool and not think too much about it, but it'd definitely haunt him later...
What is enough to bring them to tears?
OH SHIT OOPS, One Good Hug lol! But no, I think if he's in the right (or wrong, depending) mood, a semi-sad nature documentary could have him bawling
also if he lingered too long on the concept of his own loneliness... BUT WHY WOULD HE DO THAT?! Hahaha!
Biggest pet peeve?
Oh honestly he has so many, he's a really petty man. Some regular annoyances include, but are not limited to; people who eat too loudly, soup slurpers, coffee slurpers, people who can't seem to exist without making noise while he's trying to work, people on the phone who can never just get to the point when they're calling his office, people whose fiancese are an active dumpster fire and that they seem to just be pouring gasoline on-- the list truly does go on...
How well do they take care of themselves?
Pretty well actually! At least physically... mentally he's as in the toilet as the rest of him used to be...
What’s something they like that may be surprising to others?
The marine life stuff if you never actually talked to him. Also the fact that he's so good at math (he really is good at his job, even though he hates it). Or also the fact that he's like-- weirdly a good study??? Like if he starts looking into a topic, he will know a fair bit about that topic when he comes out the other side!
Do they consider others family?
Oh fuck no. He barely considers the people around him friends. And low key, they feel the same so-- ...Jean Loo's Miserable Existence strikes yet again...
Any bad habits that they have?
Other than the social ones?? Uh-- he can be kind of a hypocrite. He'll grumble about people making noise, but he's basically constantly vocal stimming. He'll complain about people being messy, but then he'll leave his papers and empty coffee cups everywhere! Smh
What’s their idea of a perfect vacation?
Beach trip that has either tide pools or an aquarium that has some kind of handler talking their trade or both!
Do they get lost easily? Will they ask for directions if they are?
It's a coin flip, both in if he gets lost and if he asks for directions when he does. I think usually he doesn't ask for help until he's really really far gone and starts to get desperate
The strangest thing they have ever seen?
Other than a house full of objects become humans?? He once saw a squirrel do a back flip... he doesn't think it meant to, but it was pretty cool
How well do they accept advice?
I was going to say not well until he's absolutely desperate, but frankly even then, he's resistant to it. He'll listen, but 50/50 chance he'll be too stubborn to actually take it
How much do they swear?
Not as much as you would think, but still occasionally
How do they take advice given to them?
grumpily, begrudgingly, but often thankfully (even though he never verbalizes it)
Do they like being in pictures?
OF COURSE HE DOES! HAVE YOU SEEN HIM! HOW CAN HE KEEP THIS FACE FROM THE WORLD?? (it depends on what he's wearing or how he's feeling, but honestly he does have a tendency to slip into 'star mode' and get really posy when a pictures being taken of him-- old habits die hard)
Is there anything they’re bad at?
THERE ANY MANY THINGS HE IS BAD AT. Top of the list being 'making friends'. Not that he'll admit it.
What’s their morning schedule?
Fairly measured and well paced, with just enough time to properly get ready pre-realization and quietly accept another day post-realization
Any past injuries?
Nothing that lasted (at least not physically. The injuries his heart has suffered from rejection on the other hand... he may never recover *dramatic pose*)
Something that disgusts them?
The idea of being open and honest with another person. ...also frog's legs don't tell France.
