Name: Calvin Evercreech

What do they look for in a person?: Calvin likes eccentrics. More than anything else, he likes people who have a lot of personality, and who are somehow unique. Since he's so restrained, he likes a free spirit, and is entertained by their antics and exciting world view. He's also very interested by artists, and isn't turned off by a little artistic pretentiousness. He eats it up when a handsome boy tells him about what their art means, about their craft, etc. He also likes being pushed, since Calvin on his own can be very unyielding. When the other person handles most of the forward movement, it's easier for him to figure out his boundaries. He's better at saying 'no' than asking for what he wants. He also needs someone with thick skin, who won't take him too seriously when he's acting like he hates everything, or when he's too blunt and abrasive. Aaaand he does tend to like boys who are either softer or more charming than he is.

What do they find romantic?: Witty conversation, entertaining banter, teasing. Lots of teasing. Teasing verging on bullying. Calvin's not always super nice to guys he's attracted to. He CAN be, but he's never been interested in a boy he didn't first act inappropriately mean towards. But when all's said and done, Calvin likes a very cerebral romance, so he's less about dates and romantic gestures and more focused on companionship. He's also a liiiittle clingier than he lets on, and likes to feel as though he's "taking care of" his dates. He thinks a fair amount of doting is very romantic.

Who do they have a crush on?: He's been developing a thing for Micah for a long time now, starting with late Y1 when he was a mess and Micah was kind to him and took him to anti-anti-Prom. He din't plan on it going anywhere, but... it did!

Are they seeing someone right now?: He's currently dating Micah St. Clair, who he's had many different feelings for since they met, and not all of them were positive. Calvin's hard to get really close to because he's so sensitive and angry, but Micah went through the gauntlet and came out with a boyfriend. Calvin's having a great time with Micah, but the rumors that they're not going to last make him huffy. Calvin and Micah are a good team, but also very stubborn and contrary. If anyone goes after them to correct them on a bad idea, they're just going to double down and keep reinforcing one another's position. Calvin's struggling a little with physical and emotional intimacy, but he's... inching... towards... dealing with that.

What are they like in a relationship?: Doting, dedicated, supportive... harsh critic. Calvin's a loving and patient boyfriend who would go to the moon and back for someone. If you don't stop him, he'll bend over backwards to please you, and will become your mother. However, he's still abrasive, and tends to be a critical nag. Sometimes it's sincere, sometimes it's just because he likes baiting people into paying attention to him. For instance, he and Micah like to play a dumb game where Micah acts like an outrageous idiot, and Calvin pretends to be so!!! angry!!! But neither of them are being overly sincere.

Anything else?: Calvin likes being in a relationship, and no matter how much he blusters, seeks out a new boyfriend whenever he's single. He's also broken up with two different guys by leaving the country.

LMAO you know what... I can see it.

Calvin is way too self-loathing to make out with his doppleganger, though.

my eyes are very bad

calvin :((( hes a DELIGHT and i LOVE HIM and he should LOVE HIMSELF i say and as someone who is not at all biased

Edited (and who definitely hasnt also broken up with two people by moving to another country ) 2018-02-01 21:51 (UTC)

Man you know what like a fair portion of the dead super seniors probably would've made out with their own doppelgangers they really missed out this year

You’re not wrong

OH MY GOD I DID TOO BUT I WASN'T GONNA SAY IT BECAUSE I FELT DUMB. Thank you for going there first. Like I had to watch it loop a few times to be like "which is actually him. that one has.. too dark hair."

This just means neither of you are familiar with Glee which is honestly a testament to your character and taste.

right like it could have been a shadow across his hair??????? hard to tell until you REALLY LOOK

i can't believe you would use so many words to describe my PERFECT HANDSOME BOY CALVIN like the dead bird a feisty cat leaves on your doorstep

Calvin is the feisty cat and the dead bird is his love for you: kind of unpleasant but he's trying very hard.

WRONG but also it's probably a good thing that every time micah hears him say "Micah, that's a terrible idea" he loves calvin more
