Name: Ennis Harper What do they look for in a person?: Someone who likes rats and won't make fun of his myomancy or think it's weird. :^(
He likes nice and kind and sweet people. (But he also had a huge crush on Moaning Myrtle so Results May Vary. As long as they're nice, kind, and sweet from his perspective.) They don't have to follow the rules or make good grades or be invested their school clubs or anything, they just need to have a good heart. People who are calm/having calming auras are appealing to him, but he also finds himself drawn to bolder/more outgoing personalities. HE WANTS SOMEONE WHO WILL INITIATE HAND-HOLDING FIRST IN THE BEGINNING SO HE DOESN'T HAVE TO DO IT. I also think he's more likely to have strong romantic feelings for someone his year or a year younger just because he prefers a more chaste romance and he feels like seniors are older, more experienced, and have different wants and expectations regarding the physical aspects of their relationships. He's not into the casual hookups a lot of them seem to have going on.
But lbr, he'd probably like anyone who likes him and doesn't mind his weirdness. Part of his draw and dedication to Myrtle was because she was one of the first girls that showed interest in him, ignoring that she showed interest in several other boys as well. Another huge part of it was that she was lonely and sad and he could relate; that's also why he's drawn to Anon, because he projects that feeling of loneliness onto them/it as well.
What do they find romantic?: Sitting together quietly. Ennis likes being read to because he loves books and stories, but he's not a strong reader. (Whenever he's been called on in class to read aloud, it's excruciating. He also has a hard time reading some journal entries and comments because of kids' shitty handwriting.) He thinks the Grotto is super romantic and he'd like to spend time just sitting in nature.
Also, someone taking interest in his hobbies and wanting to help him is TOTALLY ROMANTIC, THE ABSOLUTE BEST. The best way to get him to open up is to have him talk about his hobbies and interests. And someone wanting to join him or help him or watch him or WHATEVER, AS LONG AS IT'S POSITIVE INTEREST... It makes his heart go !!!!
Who do they have a crush on?: He has senpai crushes on Zoey on Diego, but he knows those are going nowhere and he's not interested in pursuing them. He has a crush on the Anon writer, or at least the idea he's formed in his head of what the Anon writer is like. I thiiink he has on-off romantic feelings toward several of his friends but those feelings are similar to that of a romantic friendship and not out of any strong want for a romantic relationship. He just wants to sit quietly and have his hair played with and not have to worry about expectations. :C
Are they seeing someone right now?: Nope.
What are they like in a relationship?: I'M NOT SURE??? I feel like Ennis has a hard time communicating what he wants in a relationship and he's shy about initiating things. He has a looot of insecurities to work through. Things can go awry if his partner wants to move faster than he's ready and Ennis will either withdraw and find excuses not to or just go along with it and hope for the best rather than clearly outline his boundaries. Someone who asks straightforward questions and encourages clear communication is probably best for him, buUuUut ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I think he gets really emotionally invested in relationships and he expresses his love through chaste gestures and gifting handmade items. He can knit, he can bake, he's an artist. Friends already get a lot of gifts, but a romantic partner would get more labor intensive gifts and more frequently.
Unless there's a strong friendship as a foundation, budding romantic relationships with Ennis probably feel pretty one-sided because he's not great at expressing himself and can still shy away from people he's interested in. POSSIBLY??? I'm really not sure. But he's definitely not a Levi.
Anything else?: Myrtle didn't like him nearly as much as he liked her. :^( GIF Challenge:
