Mending the Broken // Private RP // CLOSED

@blue_topaz

A young man, age 21, single.
Dropped out of college at 19, despite his athletic scholarship.
He’s hit on fairly frequently, thought of as 'nice' and 'chill' by the general public, but, truthfully, he has barely any friends.
You'd never look at him and come to the realization that he's battling years of trauma— no, he's always so laid back and friendly.

No one would ever look at him and think:
"This man is raising a child on his own."
No one would ever look at him and think:
"This man watched his girlfriend die giving birth to a baby that wasn't supposed to happen."
No one would ever look at this seemingly happy, friendly man and believe for a second that he has cried himself to sleep almost every night for the past year.

He doesn't allow himself to fall in love, doesn't have people over.
He never allows anything to distract him from the beautiful baby girl that belongs safely tucked away in his arms.
And it's been this way for the past year and two months.


This is a private roleplay with @Imperfect_Autumn! To whoever stalks the Heal This Broken Heart rp, this is also being done with my character, Sebastian, and Autumn's character, Devon, except I drastically changed my boy's backstory and wanted to test it out with an rp.

@blue_topaz

Name: Sebastian Timothy Marcellus
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Appearance: Bronzed sandy curls, usually messy, cut short on the sides and longer on the top, fair skin with a peachy-pink undertone on his cheeks, nose, shoulders, cheekbones, and knuckles, tawny gold eyes, like caramel, that capture the light and reflect it more than most people’s do. Sort of a far-off, dreamy gaze, pronounced cheekbones, light brown-dirty blonde eyebrows, thick lashes, but ones that aren’t particularly dark. Freckles e v e r y w h e r e, subtle in colour but all over his body, can have a blotchy complexion when very emotional. His face will flush or go pink very easily, especially when he’s flustered, but his face can close very quickly, it's clear that he does not mess around.. Has a lean body, strong but not buff, visible muscles on his arms. A faint crosshatching of golden hair on his arms, has very light thin facial hair when he grows it out but almost always kept it shaved, scarred hands. Tiny nicks and dark bruises all over his body.
This can be used to reference his hairstyle: https://www.pinterest.ca/pin/363313894922140120/
Usual Outfit: A maroon t-shirt, a battered leather jacket, a worn grey hoodie, black jeans, an old, small gold cross on a chain beneath his shirt (loosely of faith).
Personality: Has grow a tough shell over time, can seem amiable and laid-back at first but has a darker side once you've scratched the surface. Emotionally scarred, slow to trust, good liar, knows when to be polite. Has difficulty expressing certain emotions, mostly positive ones, isn't a fan of socialization, is very, very layered. Once you get past his darker side, he's a very musical person, some would even call him a dreamer, but only deep inside. Once you get close, he’s sort of a mom friend, very caring.
Flaws: slow to trust, blames himself for everything
Favorite Food/Drink: Slushies. Any kind. He just loves them. A lot.
Favorite Animal: Ferrets, Beagles
Favorite Color: Maroon
Favorite Season: Fall
Favorite Book(s): The Sherlock Holmes series
Other: Grew up with distant parents that were extremely strict about marks, though he rarely got anything above a B+ or an A-. Bullied throughout high school, joined the football team just to have an excuse to stay out of the house, and found himself with a sports scholarship before long. In his senior year, he fell in love with a girl named Elle (his age), and they started going out together. They both ended up going to the same college, and everything was going smoothly until Elle was accidentally impregnated and decided to keep the baby and raise it with Sebastian. She died due to complications while giving birth to a baby girl, who Sebastian had to raise alone. To better take care of her, he dropped out of college.

@Imperfect_Autumn group

Well, if you start, I'll write out my starter later.

@blue_topaz

alright, just give me a few minutes

@blue_topaz

(I'm working on the starter in a separate tab, but I realized that the description of Sebastian's hairstyle is bad so I added a link to his template, thought I should let you guys know)

(Okie-doke! Thanks!)

@blue_topaz

The harsh wind that whipped at Sebastian's hair, dragging his long scarf out behind him, was nowhere near as bitter as the thoughts that circled through his head like a flock of angry vultures. He pushed his hands, reddened and quivering from the cold, into his jacket pockets as he walked briskly down the empty street. His posture sent out a loud, clear message warning people to leave him alone— socializing with a random stranger on the sidewalk was the last thing that he was in the mood for at the moment.

But as he neared a small, white-brick building near the end of the suburban road, he forced his expression to clear, to soften until it was quiet and content, albeit a little tired. He couldn't arrive to pick Ella up with anger and frustration practically written across his face, she was always so perceptive for her age, and he hated upsetting her. She was the light of his life, after all, the only person still in it.

Sebastian pushed the front door of the daycare open, the floorboards creaking beneath his feet as he travelled down a hallway and poked his head into the room at the end of it. The moment she saw her father, Ella got unsteadily to her feet and toddled right over, holding her arms out to him with the widest grin on her face. "Daddy! Daddy!" Sebastian's heart melted.

Devon shivered and tightened her jacket around herself against the frigid air. She should really invest in a warmer coat than her thin jacket, but she didn't really have the money to. As it was, she was barely getting by with feeding herself and Layla, as well as paying for her daughter's daycare and rent for the apartment they lived in.

Maybe she should get a second job… That might help things a little… But where would Layla go?

No, she couldn't do that to her precious daughter. She couldn't be away from her for more than she already was. The poor girl cried every time she was dropped off, and she looks so happy whenever she was picked up.

Take today, for instance. Devon had dropped Layla off early this morning, and she had thankfully been asleep. Now, she was at the daycare, and she could hear the sweet laughter that her little miracle could always be found by.

When Devon stepped into the room, Layla saw her and immediately ran toward her, a huge grin on her face.

"Mommy, mommy!" the toddler bubbled as she attached herself to her mom's leg.

@blue_topaz

Other parents were arriving, excited babbling filling the room, but Sebastian only had eyes for his daughter.
"Ella!" He crouched, reaching out to scoop her up into a tight embrace when she stumbled towards him. "Dadda!" she repeated, delighted, a giggle escaping her tiny mouth as her father peppered her face with kisses. Ella clapped her tiny fists and laughed, reaching out for him while making grabby hands. Sebastian let her pull on his hair, poke his cheeks, lean forward to give him a slobbery kiss. He was practically glowing with happiness when he stood, keeping his beautiful baby girl tucked safely into his embrace.

He stood, his expression wiped clear of all exhaustion, all bitter frustration. "Were you good today, hm? Did you play with the trains?"

Even tired from work, Devon was immediately grinning from ear to ear when she saw her daughter. She scooped the girl into her arms and kissed her nose, earning some happy giggles from the already-smiling child.

"Hey, babycakes! Did you have fun? Did you play with the babies?" the woman cooed to her daughter, nuzzling her nose with her own.

Layla laughed again and huge her mother tightly, burying her face in her shoulder. "Yes! Babies are fun. We had snacks today!"

"Oh? What did you have? Animal crackers?" Devon asked, blowing a raspberry into her daughter's squishy cheek.

"An'mal crackers, yes!" Layla agreed, nodding.

@blue_topaz

Ella nodded vigorously, bursting out into ecstatic laughter once more. The tiny girl hugged her father tight, somehow widening the huge grin already spreading across his face. She burbled, tiny bubbles of saliva leaking out of the corner of her mouth, and Sebastian, always prepared, pulled a tissue from his pocket to wipe the drool away, bouncing her up and down.

"You wanna go home?" Sebastian's voice softened, turning mushy, as it always did in front of his baby girl. Ella wriggled excitedly and almost slipped from his grip, causing him to stumble straight into another parent as he scrambled to adjust his arms around her before she fell.

"Sorry!" He turned and found himself face-to-face with a blonde woman holding a little girl almost identical to her.

Devon stumbled a little when someone ran into her, but she quickly righted herself and Layla. She blushed a little as she looked up and found herself close to a man holding his own little daughter, who looked to be a coule of years younger than her own. She shook her head and stepped back.

"It's fine, don't worry about it," she said softly.

Layla wa totally unfazed by the whole thing and giggled when she saw the other girl. "El! El!" she called leaning forward in her mother's arms and toward the other girl.
