And me too. I'm Ash and I would love some plots for Caspian, here, or Cas, or Cassy or whatever you want to call him. You can even try Prince Caspian but he'll probably just give you a Look and reply that he was actually named after the sea. Really he has no idea why he was named that, whether his parents just thought it was an actual name or if they were just being dicks. Mainly he goes with the latter.
THE HISTORY
Anywho, so Caspian is twenty-three years old, from a place called Guildford in Surrey, England, (it's very nice) although he was born in Slough to a sixteen year school girl and adopted straight afterwards. He's in the upper school, obviously, studying computer science, as he's a bit of a technical wiz/nerd and is currently most likely between his first and second year, as he came to the school when he was twenty-two. Previously he was in the lower school, from the age of sixteen to eighteen, after he caused a bit too much trouble for his parents and they decided packing him off the France was the best way to deal with that.
However, he intended to come back straight away to begin his degree after finishing lower school, but he and his older brother, Elliot, went travelling together that summer holiday and Elliot was killed in a hiking accident. After that, his parents disowned him, pretty much, although his older sister vowed to stay in touch. so he was left stranded in Italy with not a lot of money, a broken arm and a lot of guilt and trauma.
After that, he got a job in a bar, where he worked for two years, before travelling around and eventually working his way to Paris. That was when his sister tracked him down again, and told him that his real mother had agreed to pay for his education, as long as he didn't get in contact with her. Cas accepted this, and that is how he ended up back at the school.
Also, yes, one side of his face is a bit messed up, where he got glassed during a fight in a bar, which he may or may not have started by maybe or maybe not flirting with someone's girlfriend. Cas does have a certain inclination towards the dramatic though, so he tends to make stuff up about what happened to his face, so there are probably various different stories floating around.
THE PERSON
As for what Caspian is like. Well. He is fairly chilled out guy for the most part, doesn't really let much get under his skin or wind him up, more likely to shrug things off with a grin and a witty remark than retaliate. Joking around and winding people up a little bit are things that he's quite partial to, when the opportunity is there, although he's chilled out a bit on that front, to some extent. For the majority of the time, Cas is a happy guy, charming, confident, likes to be friends with most people, can be quite loud and likes to lead but he's deceptively hard to get close to, and tends to evade any attempts at deeper connections. He's somewhat jaded in that area, having been screwed over by his parents, so he doesn't like to rely on anyone anymore, so if you're looking for deep heart to hearts, might want to look elsewhere.
THE PLOTS
And as I've rambled on for far too long, I'll wrap this up with what I'm looking for.
Friends, for sure, as Caspian likes people, likes socialising and likes being with friends, and he's not particularly hard to get a long with, as long as you don't mind a bit of teasing and the occasional bit of brutal honesty. But, you do get a fair amount of physical affection mixed in with that. Snuggles for the win.
Enemies, I'm sure he'll have those too, as his general demeanour will wind a few people up, no doubt, and there might be a few scorned lovers or almost lovers.
Which leads me neatly to lovers, as Caspian is something of an enigma in this area. He is a flirt, and a bit of a tease, as he doesn't always follow through on the flirting, however heavy it gets, being somewhat careless and fickle, he can switch off from a person with amazing speed, so they might think they're getting in there, until he'll suddenly pulls away, distracted by something else. The same goes for relationships, but it's unlikely he will have been in many, considering his desire to not get too close to people. Also, his sexual orientation if fluid, so he might bat for either team, depending on the person and the situation.
Sooo, that's Caspian... in an extended nutshell. Let me know if anyone is interested, I'm open to pretty much anything.
