"You watch a vampire regurgitate a piece of a guy's neck and keep your food down Sammy." Nadine huffed, shoving his chest lightly before walking back to Castiel and Dean.

"You got a real charming way of convincing people to spend time with you." He coughed, his ribs starting to ache from his previous impact with the ground.

"Big fuckin' needle." He slurred, attempting to pat his lower back where Grace had stabbed a needle into him, right next to the throbbing bullet wound.

"I'm always sleepy honey, i'm old," Dean says, words muffled by Charmeines hands squishing his cheeks and Caleb snorts at the stupid look on his father's face.

(Joseph bids him a good morning.)

"It sure was,"

The words paired with the nonchalant sip of his coffee feels like a slap in Joseph's face. He knows he has little right to be upset, but he can't deny how much it stings and he barely hides a wince. He hears John let out an angry scoff from his left, not appreciating the tone Dean took with his older brother and it takes Joseph holding his hand out and shaking his head gently to stop him from storming forward and giving the flannel clad brunette a piece of his mind.

"Well luckily you have a father that can afford food so there's no need to go hannibal on us," Dean says, pushing himself off the bed and picking Ace up.

"I can hear you thinking—go to sleep,"

His voice is raspy and rough, the bruising on his throat no doubt making it painful to utter out the words.

The truth is that most of them don’t know fuck all about real danger. But for Mariano? What other types of games are there to play but dangerous ones? His life isn’t one comprised of shit decisions he’d made as a kid — all of those had been made for him. He’s not made of the fires of youth or the flares of testosterone that get a temper going. He was born into the burning building — he’s set himself on fire to keep other’s warm, and spare them the burns.

      “Am I meant to be intimidated? Scared?” he asks with a chuckle. He works for the boogeyman himself — Claudio Renaldi has always been the monster under his bed — and because of that no young bull who thinks he’s tough shit is going to get under his skin. “Have you tried taking a deep breath and counting to ten? I hear it works to stop people from making bad decisions that they’re going to come to later regret.”

"I don't particularly enjoy articles and newspapers either. I do find myself engaging with quite a bit of historical non-fiction." Castiel replies, a somewhat coy smile tugging on his lips. By non-fiction of course he meant ancient texts and many, many papers of the creatures that plagued earth.

"There's obviously some kind of binding, keeping his memories locked away and probably stabilising his place in the universe, which would be very unstable otherwise. If I can find a way to break it he should, theoretically, be removed from the universe and returned here." Castiel explains, he wasn't completely sure if what he said was true but it was all he had to work with at the moment.

"I know how you feel and I don't have high hopes for it going well either but are we… Are we really going to pretend forever?" Castiel's question made Sam furrow his brows, wondering what the hell they could be talking about. Pretend what?

"We had a… Minor disagreement." Castiel muttered but didn't seem to want to elaborate. (In reference to Dean and Cas breakup #1000000000)

"Course he's happy, he got all the bullshit we've been through yoinked outta his head," Dean stands and walks over to join Sam and Remiel by the table, "so how we gettin' him outta there?" He asks, crossing his arms over his chest.

"And finally he gets it, I really don't know how we got anythin' done with your slow ass on the books." Dean continued to throw callous words at him, stalking over to him far too quickly.

"I don't know what you think you're doin' pal but it'll be a lot better for your health if you drop that key and get back in that shtibox you rode in on." A voice he'd never heard before growled behind him, dark and heavy and filling Liam's senses with nothing but white hot fear.

"You're looking good hotshot, see you stole my look too." Those green eyes shimmer with amusement, nothing but warmth in his voice as he gestures to their coincidentally matching flannel shirts.

"That's my kid." He'd said, a giddy grin on his face and butterflies in his chest as he jabbed his thumb in the direction Dylan had run off.

"You'd think these knuckleheads woulda gotten' it through their thick skulls by now, we've been've been here for a year for fuck's sake." Dean rolls his eyes.

"There there my little booger filled delight, your bestest, favouritest husband has made you the number one cold cure; with totally normal ingredients from the cupboard and nowhere else." Wade sang sweetly, peeling back layers of blankets to reveal a messy mop of red hair sticking to a sweaty, pale forehead.

"I'm hurt and offended by the lack of trust, besides you're already a fucked up powerpuff, so eat up buttercup!" Wade wiggled the soup ever so slightly, one step away from doing an aeroplane imitation.

"I'm not sorry, people normally have to pay for that," Wade quips, earning a groan and a roll of the eyes from the Avenger flying overhead.

"I would never, ever, ever assume my beautiful, handsome, wonderful, most loyal, ride or die husband would ever cheat on me with a catholic because he is the sexiest agnostic to ever walk the earth and would sooner get re-baptised than suck a god-fearing dick." Wade held a hand to his heart like he was reciting the national anthem, a serious expression etched into his scarred features but a smile biting at the ends of his lips.

"And Christoper McAllen can suck on my strawberry scented 99' calliper rounds and 6 inch tactical knifey. May he rest horribly in pieces." He finished with a one finger salute, grinning cheekily, very proud of his comeback.

"Well, well, well! It looks like I have stumbled upon an Ares in a foreign habitat, it seems like they're attempting to begin their hibernation out in the wild; not very smart but luckily their guardian Deadpool is here to watch over them and keep them safe." A smile spreads across Ares' hidden face and their heart settled at the sound of Wade's warm and familiar voice.

"Someone woke up on the wrong side of the tin shack this morning," Murphy murmurs under his breath.

"Hey pal! I get swinging that at him but I am precious cargo alright, The Murphy, you know, humanity's last chance at survival?"

"He's not even an actual doctor! Since when did watching ER make someone more qualified than me to do this?" He asks, raising his arms up in question.

"Oh you know, just the kind that call you their deity and think killing you will end the apocalypse." Murphy drawls, turning to give Doc an unamused look.

"Well it's good to see you again too, I'm so glad you made it back safe, I got attacked by cultists and got your battery but I'm fine thanks for asking!" He ranted dramatically, crossing his arms and glancing back at Doc who shook his head gently.

"Take off your shirt," Murphy instructs, rolling his eyes as they shoot him an incredulous look, "don't look at me like that, you obviously need some patching up and I happen to be the only one around who can do that, so," He trails off and rolls his wrist to motion for them to undress.

"Hurk isn't here, s'up in the Whitetail Mountains with a lil lady he met a month ago, they're really gettin' on well, you know," Sharky grins and raises his eyebrows suggestively, hinting at what needn't be said.

"Man I get it, trading is important to keep things goin' n' everything. The Seeds just ain't good news, there's always a string attached y'know?" Sharky's troubled blues eyes watch them earnestly.

"I'm sorry about last night man," Sharky starts, holding his hands out to stop Dean from leaving immediately, "I just got scared. I saw that guy take a swing at you and thought I was about to lose one of my best friends," His blue eyes are full of fear for a moment and Dean bows their head gently, shifting their weapons to one hand they step forward and put a hand on Sharky's shoulder.

“Uh oh, daddy’s angry,” Sharky mutters, adjusting his hat and stepping further behind Dean, who stepped back at the same time; stepping on the pyro’s feet in the process.

"Ezekiel, is this true?" His words are hushed and Ezekiel seems to deflate before him, obviously not expecting this reaction from the father.

"I-I yes father, it's just—it's not right—" He stammers and Joseph's grip on his shoulder tightens.

"You do not get to decide that. The Lord guides everyone on their own paths and you cannot judge their journeys. We do not judge people for their pasts, only their present, we also do not spew mindless hatred unto our brothers and sisters. I expect better from you, that sort of bigotry is a festering sin my child and it will only cause you and others harm," Joseph grabs both of Ezekiel's shoulders as he speaks, his hold tight enough to be uncomfortable but not painful.

"I understand you not accepting his apology but please hear mine and know it is not empty. If there is anything I can do to make up for this please let me know, I will be making sure to speak with my flock about this incident at my next sermon to assure this never happens again, hate is not the message I wish to spread." Joseph tries to keep his voice steady but the feeling in his gut and tugging at the back of his mind is making it so hard to focus. This man was special. In some way or another, something about him was pulling Joseph closer and closer—

"I had a choice, deputy; I could have left you there to die. Yes, it would have been much easier to do that but… I knew I couldn't. We are not quite finished, your path is not complete and I still have faith in you, even if you have none in me," Joseph leans forward and rests a hand on Dean's bandaged shoulder.

"You've let your wrath control you my child, you've come here today with a clouded mind—what did you think killing me would accomplish?" He asks the question genuinely and Adam's reply comes in the form of spit hitting Joseph's face.

"Do you see what you're putting your sister through Adam? Look at her," Joseph grabs Adam's jaw and roughly turns his head, "She came to us for peace and you have brought nothing but pain with you, you could have come with her, joined her with Faith; been freed of your sin…" Joseph points to Sheryl who looks at him with watery eyes. Joseph shakes his head, looms over Adam as he cups his face in both of his hands.

"But you do not wish for peace and I cannot force it upon you… But I cannot let a locust loose—you wish to destroy the salvation your sister seeks and I shall not allow you to do so," Joseph speaks lowly, a dangerous glint in his eye as he shoves him back.

"He's been running around with the deputy, it seems like they're very close. They're also very pigheaded and they're not playing by the rules," Faith frowns, "we need to fix that." Faith's eyes stayed on the page of the report she was skimming over half heartedly, Anya feeling her lip twitch at the sudden discomfort brought on by the Heralds tone. No amount of bliss could veil the anger and frustration bubbling under Faith's composed visage and it unsettled Anya if she was honest. Faith was most dangerous when pushed to her limit and the deputy was definitely dancing dangerously over the line of what she would tolerate.

"Oh I know you are, running around being everyone's puppet must keep you very busy," She smiles, it's a beautiful smile, shines in her eyes and rests on her cheeks. It's mesmerising—but her words make it sour.

"Two days," Faith finally says, holding up two fingers and smiling sweetly, "I came in and checked on you every now and then, you're so cute when you're asleep. So peaceful," The words themselves are so innocent but the way her eyes trail over the man in front of her is anything but, he feels vulnerable under her gaze and the thought of her having un-monitored access to him while he was unconscious makes him anxious.

"Well they do say a person's home is their sanctuary—I never understood that until I found mine," Faith muses as the deputy sits down, resting their gun against the tree and keeping a respectable distance; which receives a small pout from Faith.

"That was quite the show, Deputy, you really gave my men a run for their training—I'm impressed."

"I'll let you go for now, you've done well but remember, i'm not done with you yet. You're still too soft y'see and soldiers—good soldiers—can't be soft."

"We'll carve that softness out of you together, it's not gonna be just me doin' all the work here. Ya can resist as much as you want pup but you know you'll be better off when we're done, that's why you behave so well during ya trials isn't it?"

"Yeah… You're good at takin' orders i'll give you that, just gotta break that rebellion outta ya. Maybe if ya didn't have so many distractions this would be goin' quicker, whaddaya think, am I right?"

"Eli's been real good at keepin' ya busy lately, huh?"

"The way I see it, he's holdin' ya back from reachin' your full potential pup. All of 'em are but ya got it in ya head Eli can help you right? He can't. No one can."

"One of your partners is sure causing a fuss for my brother right now," Jacob drawled, reaching a hand up to drag through his beard as he spoke. He glanced at Pratt and saw the expected spark of hope at the news. He'd crush that in no time flat, it wouldn't take much.

"John's gonna reign him in soon enough… And while he's doin' that you and I are gonna see what you're made of." Jacob watched Pratt's eyes as they filled with apprehension, glancing between him and the woman at the door.

"What the fuck do—"

"Shh. Wasn't askin' a question peaches, you don't talk unless I tell you too." Jacob cut off the stammering deputy shortly, holding up his index finger to his lips before pointing at him.

"I hardly think you're in the position to be picky about your food deputy, it's not poisoned if that's what you're thinking. I wouldn't let you ruin my sheets just to kill you in the most unsatisfying way I could imagine," John scoffs, somewhat offended they would think he'd do something so plain. He was more creative than poison for fucks sake.

"Yes, with me, is that so terrible? I think you'll find when you're not raging your warpath and fighting me i'm quite pleasant company." He smiles, as if to convince them of his words. They give him a blank stare in return and it takes everything in John not to scowl.

"Well deputy, I don't know if you know this but you bleed quite a lot and blood stains are not that easy to remove," He says, watching as the deputy shoots him an unimpressed look.

"Oh I'm so sorry, I'll try to bleed less next time." They say, the sarcasm dripping from their words an absolute delight to hear and John can't help but grin.

"That would be greatly appreciated thank you," He teases, grin widening as they roll their eyes at him.

"Oh but aren't you? That's why you're leading that little resistance of yours isn't it? You think you're helping people—but you're not. It's not entirely your fault, everyone gets led down a wrong path, but will you course correct is the question. Are you willing to amend your wrongs?" John lifts his hands in question, only being met with a hard glare and more futile resistance.

"The only fucking people who need to amend shit is you and your fucked up family," Dean spits the words out harshly but they fall flat, they don't have as much sting as usual.

"Really? Are you so blinded by your pride you can't see what's right in front of you? All you've done? You want to paint my family as the villains in your story but fail to see yourself as the villain in others. Or has it become such second nature now you've forgotten all the blood on your hands as of late?" John muses, brushing past Dean's words easily and leaning in closer.

"For fucks sake—firstly; you barge into my home, uninvited and very unwelcome, walk around touching all my belongings like you own them and now you think you have the right to interrogate me?" He pulled her forward by her bicep, stopping inches away from her face and watching with growing anger as she barely twitched by the proximity or his rising volume.

"I'm just curious how you got a friend like him—or a friend at all for that matter," She smirked. A small act that had him wishing he could wrap his hands around her skinny neck and watch that apathetic amusement go dull in her eyes.

"Says the woman hundreds of miles away from home because no one wanted anything to do with her after she lost all of her social power," He snapped and is allowed only one second of gratification at the small frown that dances across her painted lips—it's gone too soon however as she quickly rolled her eyes.

"How many times are we going to do this? Hm? How long are you going to be so fucking stubborn? Can't you see, i'm trying to help you?"

"You call locking me up in your underground torture dungeon and interoggating me helping?"

"Oh I am so terribly sorry, have I not been hospitable enough for your liking? Maybe you would prefer Jacob's cages? Or are Faith's hallucinations more your speed? Would you prefer I treat you like a dog? A lab rat?" John storms up to Dean, pulls his chair forward, firmly planting his hands on either side of his head—gripping the wooden chair with enough force to make it splinter.

❝​🇹​​🇭​​🇪​ ​🇲​​🇺​​🇸​​🇪​​🇸​❝

1. Describe your OC physically- what do they look like? What notable features do they have, or what’s your favorite part of their design?

Gabe is a lean dirty blonde who stands at 6 foot, his short hair is unkempt and his face has a controlled stubble that gives him a subtle charm. He has piercing baby blue eyes, a long upturned nose and a mesmerising smile with slightly yellow teeth from his coffee consumption.

His muscles are softly defined and he has sparse dirty blonde body hair, most notable on his chest, forearms and calves. He has sparse freckles here and there which is always a favourite physical trait I give to many OC's. He's not out in the sun a lot and is on the paler side.

2. What role would your OC fill in a friend group?

The flirty clown, he likes to playfully flirt with friends who are comfortable with it and he never passes up an opportunity to make everyone laugh. He loves being in the spot light, especially of people he cares about.

3. What is their stance on religion? Are they a devout believer, against the idea of gods, or somewhere in between? Do they make their practice or their opinions public, or keep it private?

Gabriel is pretty resolute in his faith but he's only vocal about it among other people of his faith. He attends church every Sunday and prays multiple times a day, he does all he can to support local churches and takes it upon himself to help the local pastors and preacher's however he can even if that means a free meal at his diner here and there. The only time his practice is public is when he prays before eating a meal.

4. How do they act when they’re sick, and does it change depending on who they’re around or how sick they are?

He is a mega crybaby when he's sick, it doesn't matter what level of sick he is he will curl up under the covers and phone someone to come take care of him. He will make it everyone's problem that he's not feeling well, the only exception would have been around his dad or extremely macho-manly men like Jacob; he knows they'd just tell him to suck it up.

5. What’s one hill your OC will die on (anything from a guiding moral position to a strong opinion about combining mint and chocolate)?

He believes a few foods/meals are meant to be had a certain way and if you do it any other way you are wrong and he can't look at you the same ever again. Aka he doesn't think pineapple has any place on a pizza and he will never have pizza with you if you do; another example is he believes French toast should only be had sweet and anyone who makes it savoury is unwell mentally.

6. How did you choose your OC’s name?

So his faceclaim plays Jack Kline in supernatural and I had that in the back of my head when I was making him; seeing as fc5 and spn both heavily focus on religious themes I was just playing with names tied to that. Gabriel in spn is also very sassy so that had a hand in my choice.

The last name Stokes was one of the rare times I don't deep dive through a hundred sites searching for menaings and I just kinda liked the sound of it in my head.

7. Lots of people don’t have a favorite food when put on the spot, but what’s a food or drink that your OC would never turn down if someone offered it to them?

Pancakes and a strawberry milkshake, the pancakes are always fluffy and light and the milkshake refreshing and sweet. He's a simple man with simple pleasures.

8. What’s something that your OC owns that means the world to them? What’s something they own that they don’t like, but can’t bring themself to part with?

He has his dad's key chain that he's had since he passed away, it has chips and scratches that he runs his thumb over and it makes him think of his dad. He inherited the diner and someday it's a dream and others it's absolute hell. He tossed aside any dreams he had to run it and tries to find fulfilment in feeding the folks of Hope County.

9. How do they fare in cold or hot climates, and which do they prefer?

In the cold he will be bumbled up in a thousand layers, in the heat he's stripped down to board shorts and flip-flops so he can jump into any body of water at a moments notice. He prefers hot weather since he has more summery clothing and likes showing it—and himself—off.

10. Share a sentence of dialogue from your OC that you think represents them well.

"They're not normally this impressive but I buttered up the chef just for you," [Hello Handsome — paragraph; 38, line; 152]

This line represents Gabe really well as it shows his flirty nature and need to impress, he wants to be liked and praised and he goes to certain lengths to be on people's good sides. Especially if it happens to be a the hot new guy in town, he will whip him up the fluffiest pancakes ever made with extra maple syrup and he'll give him a discount all in the hopes he comes back or gives him his number.

Some could say he's desperate, i'd say he's a people pleaser with a need to be wanted.

11. How are they seen by people around them - family, close friends, colleagues, or strangers?

His family always saw him as a kid with a big heart and big dreams, friends see him as a goofball with a big heart and strangers often see him as either alluring and fun or attention-seeking and annoying.

12. What does their bed and/or desk look like? Tidy or cluttered - are they both the same, or is one neat and the other messy?

His bed is a mess when he knows he's the only one whose gonna be in it but he tidies it up and puts on his series covers/sheets when he knows he'll have company. His desk in the diner is a complete mess, the whole office is, it looks like a tornado went through it. He keeps saying he'll organise it but never does.

13. How do they deal with pain (physical or emotional)?

Gabe has a very low pain tolerance, he cries when he stubs his toe. He's the type to openly seek out comfort from those around him no matter the type of pain he's going through, he really just wants to be held and comforted until the pain goes away. (And if the pain never goes away he never wants to be let go.)

14. How comfortable are they relying on other people, and what situations would change their comfort level?

He relies heavily on other people, he relied on his parents when they were alive, he relied heavily on his friends and co-workers in an emotional sense or to keep him accountable at the diner, etc. Eventually he relies on Joseph for stability, seeing him as a safety net when the world around him is getting pulled out from under him.

15. How does your OC take up space? What do they do with their hands when they talk, or how do they sit in chairs?

Gabe has very expressive hands, he likes to move and gesture while he talks. He's motions around, he crouches, he twirls, whatever he feels will get his story across. He usually sits cross legged on chairs or with his feet on the chair in some way.

16. Point assign D&D ability scores to your OC (STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, CHA; out of 27).

STR: 5 | DEX: 4 | CON: 1 | INT: 3 | WIS: 4 | CHA: 10

17. What are three moments in their life that impacted your OC the most?

His first relationship in highschool with a footballer who dated him for a semester than dumped him and spread rumours about him, leading him to getting bullied for the rest of his highschool career.

His parents funerals, saying goodbye to the pillars of his world and dealing with the whirlwind of emotions and the dread of his new reality where he's completely alone.

Meeting Joseph Seed absolutely flipped his world upside down, he very quickly filled up the guardian/parental hole he was left with and Gabriel was very ready to once again throw away most of his life to stay by the preacher's side.

18. If they can or would drive, what would their car be like?

Gabe always hitches rides with his friends bc he's a freeholder who doesn't have a license. If he did have a car he would have just kept his dad's truck and it'd be surprisingly clean, solely bc he'd fear his dad rising from his grave to berate him for letting it get dirty.

19. How do they connect with the people around them? Love language, how they offer comfort, etc.

He's an extrovert so he's very friendly, affectionate and open about his feelings, etc. With his friends he sends playlists, spam texts, sends memes and videos and buys trinkets that remind him of them, that sort of thing. He offers comfort with how he wants it, physical affection and encouraging/comforting words.

20. What kind of clothing do they feel most comfortable in? What kind of clothing do they wear most often?

He really enjoys wearing low-cut tank tops and ripped jeans, he thinks it's a hot look that shows off his physique and is fashionable and fun. He feels most comfortable in just a pair of sweats/shorts, which he only usually wears at home.

1. Describe your OC physically- what do they look like? What notable features do they have, or what’s your favorite part of their design?

Nikolas is a tall, lean guy with curly blond hair and a strong jawline that's clean shaven. He has striking blue eyes, a delicate long nose and pink lips on the thinner side. He has strong thighs, calves and biceps; his wrists and ankles are on the danitier/thinner side.

He has a long neck with a defined adams apple and also has sparse feeckles sprinkled across his skin, his body hair is very light and barely noticeable. He is slightly tan from being in the sun but only very subtly.

2. What role would your OC fill in a friend group?

He is the glue that holds people together, he's a ray of optimistic sunshine and he does what he can to keep the peace and bring the people he loves together.

3. What is their stance on religion? Are they a devout believer, against the idea of gods, or somewhere in between? Do they make their practice or their opinions public, or keep it private?

Nikolas has no concept of gods and religion, it's not something he ever know and it's not something he thinks about now. He respects other people and their faith and he'll keep quiet when other pray but he just starts daydreaming about other things.

4. How do they act when they’re sick, and does it change depending on who they’re around or how sick they are?

He tries to fight through it the point where he makes himself even more sick and at that point he gets forced to rest by everyone around him. Sometimes if he's badly sick he'll stay in bed but he'll still try to shrug it off if anyone checks on him.

5. What’s one hill your OC will die on (anything from a guiding moral position to a strong opinion about combining mint and chocolate)?

He firmly believes children and animals should not be harmed or used on any of other people's bullshit skirmishes/to gain an upper hand etc. If he finds out anyone has hurt or taken advantage of children or animals in anyway he makes them his enemy and if anyone he knows interacts with them positively he gives them a long rant on why they shouldn't and is ready to drop those connections if they refuse to take his words to heart.

6. How did you choose your OC’s name?

Nikolas is just a name I've always really loved, it means victory of the people and this fits in with his main storyline with how everyone in his life has done everything in his power to keep him alive and his very act of living is a victory for those people. Reeves was again just something I thought sounded nice with Nikolas.

7. Lots of people don’t have a favorite food when put on the spot, but what’s a food or drink that your OC would never turn down if someone offered it to them?

Apple pie and a hot coco, his mother made the best apple pie in the world and every day he misses the taste of it. He's not in a world where he can be picky however so he really will eat and drink almost anything that's available.

8. What’s something that your OC owns that means the world to them? What’s something they own that they don’t like, but can’t bring themself to part with?

He has his mothers necklace that he never takes off, the pendant on it hangs right over his heart and it makes him feel connected to her. A gift Hakon gave him once, it's a shitty radio that he never uses but it's one of the only things he has from Hakon so he can't toss it.

9. How do they fare in cold or hot climates, and which do they prefer?

He's pretty adaptable with weather, he prefers weather in between but he doesn't mind the cold because it makes everything else a lot slower.

10. Share a sentence of dialogue from your OC that you think represents them well.

"I'll be here tomorrow, and the day after that," [One Minute More Love One Minute More — paragraph;19, line;145]

This line represents a core aspect of Nikolas being how he's willing to be there for those he loves even when they're pushing him away of being distant. He always gives them an opening and a way of knowing his door is open when they want to come back home, he doesn't hold grudges for very long and his love for his friends and family outweighs almost everything else.

11. How are they seen by people around them - family, close friends, colleagues, or strangers?

Family see a him as a sunrise after the coldest and darkest of nights, friends see him as the warmth of the sun on their skin and the victory party after a hard won battle. People he works with see a radiant man with a gentle heart that could get him killed one of these days. Strangers either seem him as a charming stranger of a dangerous threat.

12. What does their bed and/or desk look like? Tidy or cluttered - are they both the same, or is one neat and the other messy?

His bed and desk are always tidy, he likes being able to just get back into bed and seeing where everything is because he has to sometimes get places quickly and having everything out in the open and in the place where he knows it'll be.

13. How do they deal with pain (physical or emotional)?

For the most part he has a medium to high pain tolerance and grits his teeth through most pain (goes the same for emotional pain). He is the trope of bleeding out under his clothes without telling anyone.

14. How comfortable are they relying on other people, and what situations would change their comfort level?

Not very comfortable at all, if he can he does everything himself and if he can't; he tries to do it himself anyway. He doesn't like burdening people around him especially the people he loves and usually they have to help him against his wishes because he's annoyingly stubborn about it.

15. How does your OC take up space? What do they do with their hands when they talk, or how do they sit in chairs?

Nikolas is pretty relaxed when he talks, he doesn't usually move his hands and has something to hold or just stuffs them away into his pocket. He sits pretty casually, mayber tossing one leg over the other or throwing his legs over the arms of the chair, he also will just sit on the arm of a chair of his friends so he can be closer to them.

16. Point assign D&D ability scores to your OC (STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, CHA; out of 27).

STR: 5 | DEX: 5 | CON: 3 | INT: 3 | WIS: 3 | CHA: 8

17. What are three moments in their life that impacted your OC the most?

The moment he lost his family completely changed his life, it left him traumatised and completely changed the trajectory of his life.

Being adopted by Margaret was a more positive turning note of his life, he lost his family and gained another. Without her he may not have made it to adulthood.

The breakup between him, Lawan and Hakon; losing that relationship in a sense really effected him and leaves him feeling lost for a long time.

18. If they can or would drive, what would their car be like?

He would prefer a motorbike for the speed and ability to go through small side streets, it would be a sleek one with some mods to make it appropriate for his life in their hellish apocalypse.

19. How do they connect with the people around them? Love language, how they offer comfort, etc.

He is full of love for the people around them and he tries to spend a lot of time with his friends and family and doing things for them, he's happiest when he can be helpful to his loved ones. He offers comfort through physical affection, words of comfort and advice and some times by offering to take out whatever upset them (jokingly).

20. What kind of clothing do they feel most comfortable in? What kind of clothing do they wear most often?

He really enjoys light and airy clothing that let's him breath, he's happy in a sweater and light pants but he always ends up in full-covered gear and covered head to toe in layers of clothes. It's mostly for safety and while he can move easily in them he prefers not being covered in in so many layers.
