Healing au (part2)
N/A: Do not mess up with Zaorva and don´t make MILF jokes with her...Sorry, that article was gold. OCS will be used. And the Harem won´t be that important.
@djinmer4 @dannybagpipesarecalling @sailorstar9 @discordsworld @look-ma-no-hands336
The Harem has 5 princesses now and life as well, the princess of the family Blanc made a profit with war and agree with a treat with a very important kingdom. It´s lucrative to everyone, and the best part, they did all this in Zaorva´s name.
Kurt is not religious even though he has a cult dedicated about himself, no, but the idea of having a Zaorvaian in his harem did make him side eyes, however, expel someone who workship HER may be a tad bit stupid.
(Kurt sweat cold when the name Zaorva is mentioned and he knows, too well, how Zaorva can be ruthless. Life can be a bitch and Kurt does not wish to tempt her anger)
Of course, his efforts to make Zaorva ignore his presence was cut short when a fire smoke presents on his palace and Venus, HER Herald, appear carrying her master´s fury.
Venus points her finger to the princess of the family Blanc with a vengeance as her eyes are showing the primordial fire, HER fire. " You and your family committed a Genocide in the name of my lady? She hear, she saw and knows everything and I´m here to deliver her punishment to you" her tone has a cold tone that matches with her fire-ish presence.
Fire engulfed the princess burning to ashes and this was in front of everyone. Kurt is there watching the woman turning into ashes, no, she didn´t even turn to that...the primordial fire is something else. Something that Kurt will never conjecture.
Venus now points her finger to Kurt. "You!" she strolls at him with HER fury and now Venus´s eyes are crystal blue and Kurt can only shiver and sweat cold as SHE is talking to him. "You! This is also your fault, the family burned and destroyed a kingdom to please you and me, I´M NOT PLEASE" her tone is deadly and Kurt is gulping hard and loudly. "Your punishment will be to fix that. There´s no life in that place, nothing...you´ll make life there" and Kurt can feel her presence squeezing his form "I´m not talking about necromancy...you´ll build a kingdom as lively and bright as before"
Venus´s eyes are back to her fire presence, but, she still is pointing at Kurt with a displeased face. "Kurt Wagner, you have a mission from my Lady, fail and we´ll eat your flesh" she promised.
"But...I´m a conquer...I know nothing about making a kingdom" Kurt has the guts to speak even if is in a low tone. Venus does not appear to show mercy to him, yet, she is giving this advice. "Go to the central city, look for a healer named Bob, he´ll help you"
And Venus leaves in the same way she enrols in the harem. Fire and smokes and fear are present in the court and Kurt has to stop his world domination.
___________________________________________________________________
Kitty is dressed up as Bob, a healer that is working work for the evil necromancer, she knows the man is often in need of healers. She was sure that getting the job would complex and full of the interview.
When the necromancer strolls in the bar looking for Bob, Kitty is surprised how quickly she got the job. "Congratulations, Bob, the healer, you´ll work for me...and for Zaorva"
"Yes!" Bob said. Kurt is bemused.
_________________________________________________________________________
Kurt has many minions who do his dirty work, of course, no one is as good as him, however, the latest excuses for failures is grinding his nerves. "Let me guess, your excuse will be" Kurt fake pondering "Oh right, a mysterious healer shows up and magically knock you out?!" Kurt is bemused.
His last student is nodding saying that the healer has abilities he never saw before, Kurt is not pleased. "And this healer defeat all of you?" Kurt asked once again noticing how some of his students are still in pain.
Bob is working with Kurt, the first step is to make sure the soil is fertile and is watching the situation unfolds. Kurt´s zombies appear and Kurt´s gaze is on his last student. "Now, in my eyes or this mysterious healer is that powerful and a threat to me or my lazy student is making a lie, which one is the truth" his smile is cruel and Bob knows what will happen, so, bravely so Bob speaks.
"Wait, I know the healer, she´s from Zaorva cult, the first of her name and a force to be reckoned "Bob speaks in a modest tone "they are speaking the truth, they have to meet Shadowcat"
Kurt sends his zombies away and is pondering, now, this is different. "Bob, tell me more about this healer, please?"
"Oh, fine, only because you´re asking politely"
___________________________________________________________________
Bob is a hot topic for people inside the harem and outside as well, the man is often lurking around and looking for something, one of the ladies thought the man wanted an excuse to be with her, sadly for her, that´s not the case.
"So, he does not have the spear?" Bob mutters and now is thinking about her next movie, suddenly, Kurt shows up with great news.
Is the spear?!
"I know her name!" Kurt exclaimed with the confidence of having a real confidant. Bob is making his usual face(no glamour, only a good disguise) as Kurt is talking about the healer, making Bob sweat now "her name is Katherine Anne Pryde, healer of the Zaorva, the first of her name, the only daughter of Cameron and Teresa Pryde and" he gives a wild grin making Bob sweat even more "she´s immortal"
"How did you know that?" Bob asked in a cool way.
"I´ve my ways, Bob" and leaves as Bob realizes this is a far complex cat-mouse game, meanwhile, Kurt is paying at the detective for getting the basic of the necromancer, even her image.
_______________________________________________________________________
Kitty is using her white robes as she´s healing one person in the road, of course, she's not surprised to see Kurt Wagner as well looking at Kitty as she finishes her proceed.
"So, you´re the sweet healer that has been in my way?" Kurt asked in a leery way but the threating part is lost on Kitty as the man continues "doe eyes and a gentle heart, yes, are you."
"Are you insulting or compliment me? " Kitty asked wittily and Kurt only replies. "Sweet healer, don´t cross with me" and Kitty couldn´t help by adding "Well, I´m not crossing you, I´m here on the middle of the road, but the road is big enough...you can walk without any problem"
Kurt bites his lips and says he´ll be looking for her and leaves. Kitty is sure this is the most complex cat-mouse game ever. Meanwhile, Kurt has no idea why he has the need to compliment this healer.
_________________________________________________________________________
Bob has trouble as Kurt likes to talk about the healer and his confusing feelings about her. "She´s a worthy rival" and Bob nods and then Kurt asked, "Bob, are you gay?"
"No, bi and no, no interest in any woman in the harem" Kitty speaks as the new houses are being built and refugee from wars can stay on the land.
"I see, I just ask to know, whatever you swing hope the person is worthy of your time...you´re a good friend Bob" and Bob is sweating feeling guilt.
"Thanks, you´re a strange boss but I can´t say I hate to work with you" The reply is sincere and Kitty knows she needs to end Bob or else...
"Ok, wanna see my new fanart of the Healer? She has beautiful eyes and the fluffiest hair ever" Kurt declares and somehow Bob is blushing, thankfully, Kurt did not saw.
___________________________________________________________________
The Kingdom is ready, a capital city and common cities to fill the space. The commerce is thriving and Kitty is amused at how Kurt take his job seriously, Bob, was finally killed as Bob wanted to be with his husband and kids.
A party is being thrown as dance and music are being rung loudly, the new kingdom will remain and the young ones have a bright future at their front, suddenly, Kitty is taken by a group dance and her small hands are intertwined with blue ones.
"Hello, Evil Necromancer" she speaks easily.
"Hello, sweet healer" he responds still dancing with her. There´s an old saying that goes like this, keep your friends close and keep your enemies closer. Of course, there´s no saying on dancing with your "enemy" but Kurt just concluded a task for Zaorva and is alive so who will question him? ___________________________________________________ Zaorva watches the scene as Venus is thrown some suggestion. "Maybe, we should tell who Bob is...He never connected the dots and Kitty is terrible with glamours"
"She´ll tell when she´s ready, she feels guilt and is confused about her feelings with this necromancer and Kurt is not very smart with his feelings" Zaorva speaks sincerely.
"And you never get confused about your feelings for IT?" Venus asked.
"No, sometimes, IT can be an asshole, but, I love IT very much...even an asshole"
Meanwhile, as IT is dealing with his Heralds and ITS changes his mood for better. Not that will help his Heralds very much.

DOTV AU: An Exercise in Alternate History (Part VII)
Parts I, II, III, IV, V, and VI offer more detailed context. (To briefly sum up why these posts are happening: alt history â as in sci fi, not âalternative factsâ â buff, one day got the idea that DOTV could have turned out hella different if Jim Steinman looked for a star lead in other places, decided to reason out how that might work.) This is still getting a good response, so Iâm gonna keep the train rolling.
Parts of the AU timeline established so far:
Instead of stopping at recording two songs from Whistle Down the Wind on a greatest hits compilation, Meat Loaf wound up taking more of an interest in Steinmanâs new theater work than he did in our timeline, and through a series of circumstances found himself volunteering to play Krolock in the impending DOTV when Jim poured out his woes to him about needing to find some sort of star to attract investors. At a loss for any better ideas, Jim accepted Meatâs impulsive proposal, but not without resistance from his manager, David Sonenberg, who proposed Michael Crawford as an alternate candidate. Through quick thinking on Meatâs part, and inspiration on Jimâs, Crawford left the room accepting an entirely different role than he walked in hoping to get, leaving Krolock still open for Meat.
There was a brief speed bump, when Meat disliked Jimâs English script for the show, but after meeting with the original German author Michael Kunze and convincing Jim to compromise, things were on the road to being back on track⌠at least until 9/11 occurred.
Following a brief hiatus, everyone involved met to re-assess their options. The current game-plan was to put the new script on paper, schmooze with potential investors or producers, and put together a new creative team. Preferably not all at the same time, but with the crunch on, theyâd do whatever needed to be done.
So far, the schmoozing has gone well, but everybody that Meat, Jim, and the crew would like to be involved is tentative. The newest conclusion is that they need to show them thereâs a working show, and a concert of selections from the score seems to be the route theyâre taking, possibly financed by an unlikely source.
Continuing the alternate DOTV timeline, a little differently this time! This time we get a feature on the concert from the New York Postâs own Michael Riedel. Take it away!
VAMPIRES: NEW MUSICAL BLOOD by Michael Riedel
If youâve heard the buzz on the Rialto of late, youâd be forgiven for wondering if you were having a particularly nasty acid flashback. Dance of the Vampires, a new $15 million musical of the macabre based on the 1967 Roman Polanski movie The Fearless Vampire Killers, is already a monster hit in Austria and Germany, and itâs starting to gather steam here in the States as well, with some... weâll call it unlikely... star power attached. After all, what other musical (even in a preliminary concert presentation) can boast Courtney Love as an emcee slash investor, and such disparate names as Meat Loaf and Michael Crawford as co-headliners?
Admittedly, Meat Loafâs presence is slightly less surprising, as the driving force behind the show is Jim Steinman, who wrote Mr. Loafâs classic Bat Out of Hell albums as well as the lyrics for Andrew Lloyd Webberâs Whistle Down the Wind. He has written the score and is co-adapting the book for Vampires with playwright David Ives (All in the Timing), who is also currently at work with Steinman for Warner Bros. on a musical version of Batman, from German dramatist Michael Kunzeâs original script. He also co-directed this concert with Starmites composer Barry Keating, though early reports that Steinman would be co-directing the eventual Broadway run with Jane Eyre creator John Caird have ultimately been dismissed.
âRoman directed it in Vienna, but he canât work here because of his legal problems,â Steinman said, referring to Polanskiâs indictment for statutory rape in the 1970â˛s. âHe may be the first director who canât work over here because of a statutory rape charge.â When queried about who then would be directing the New York run, Steinman was tight-lipped, but among those in attendance at the eveningâs proceedings was Urinetownâs Tony-winning helmer, John Rando, who is now rumored to be in talks for the slot. Said Rando of the new show, âIt takes the vampire myth and pokes fun at it, but it also embraces it. Its message is about the excesses of appetite. It has wit and an edge to it. Iâd love to be involved!â
The presentation (at the 499-seat Little Shubert Theatre, about half a mile west of Broadway; events like this cause us rightfully to wonder why it doesnât see more use) for a by-invitation-only crowd was kicked off by Ms. Love, Hole rocker and widow of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, in memorable form. Says a source in attendance, âYou could sum it up in two words: too drunk. She was literally falling over. She wasnât coherent at all.â Managing to gather herself enough to announce that Dance of the Vampires is a musical for people âwho think musicals suck,â she didnât manage to say much else of importance. âIt just became a little too sloppy, and she was removed.â Insiders report that Steinmanâs manager, David Sonenberg, who is also one of the showâs producers (and a first-timer at that), worried that those involved would be seen as taking advantage of a troubled addict. Ms. Loveâs performance did little to dispel this perception. Lucky that representatives from noted L.A.-based promoter Concerts West, major music manager Irving Azoff (who numbers The Eagles, REO Speedwagon, Journey, Christina Aguilera, and Sammy Hagar among his clients), film and music mogul Jerry Weintraub, and Broadwayâs own Barry and Fran Weissler were in attendance; a cash infusion from such sources may well be needed to save face if she canât âlive through this,â to twist a phrase from her 1994 album of the same name.
In addition to Sonenberg, already attached to Vampires on the producing side are Andrew Braunsberg (another first-timer, who also produced Polanskiâs 1971 film version of Macbeth), Leonard Soloway, Bob Boyett (Sweet Smell of Success, Topdog/Underdog), Lawrence Horowitz (Electra, It Ainât Nothing But the Blues), and Barry Diller and Bill Haberâs USA Ostar Theatricals. Boyett, a TV producer turned legit entrepreneur, used the phrases âtrial by fireâ and âgoing to war,â perhaps because while some novice producers just put up the money, get the credit and run, Boyett says heâs been taking the process very seriously: âI went to all the meetings and learned, like it was grad school.â While some Hollywood types find Broadway âless cutthroat,â Boyett finds it âmore restrictive.â He mentions the sheer physical space of the theaters but also all the rules and regulations: "Iâve dealt with unions all my life, but I do find Actorsâ Equity is very restrictive to the creative process.â Further, he regrets that Vampires will not have an out-of-town tryout. âI loved the experience of taking Sweet Smell of Success to Chicago,â he says with real enthusiasm, as if the project ended happily. âIt was helpful to have the critics say what they did.â Not that Boyett thinks the right message from the critics got to the creative team.Â
As for Boyettâs teammates, Bill Haber attended on behalf of USA Ostar, and although he wouldnât consent to a formal interview, he couldnât resist answering one question -- and it has nothing to do with Dance of the Vampires. Why is Haberâs other fall production, Imaginary Friends by Nora Ephron, being called a play if it has six songs by Marvin Hamlisch and Craig Carnelia? âIt has nothing to do with how many songs there are,â he shot back. âIt has to do with the fact that if you took all the songs out, it still works and you still have a play.â
And all this before we even get to the show itself. Vampires is your typical erotic musical about an innocent girl (played this evening by impressive newcomer Mandy Gonzalez, currently standing by for the role of Amneris in Aida and late of Off-Broadwayâs Eliâs Cominâ) choosing between two lovers, in this case an older, aristocratic vampire (Loaf, whose appearance here marks the first time he has worked with Steinman in theater since the early Seventies) and a hunky young grad student (Max von Essen, who reportedly also appeared in the Steinman/Caird-helmed reading in April 2001) under the tutelage of a rather intensely wacky vampire hunter (Crawford). Given the level of Loafâs obvious commitment to the piece, it is surprising that his manager (Allen Kovac, of Left Bank Management) was a no-show, and in that light, rumors that Loaf has yet to formally sign on the dotted line for Vampires (in spite of previous announcements to the contrary, no less) prove even more curious. Calls to Kovacâs office were not returned. The rest of the cast, boasting some fine voices indeed, was filled out by assorted Broadway names and members of Meat Loafâs long-time touring band, The Neverland Express, which also provided accompaniment for the evening under the crisp musical direction of veteran rock bassist Kasim Sulton (best known for his work with Todd Rundgren and Utopia, among others).
Speaking of the music: the score, as per Steinmanâs usual style, is appropriately big and Wagnerian, with plenty of luscious, operatic melodies, including one familiar favorite that sticks out like a sore thumb:Â Steinmanâs famous âTotal Eclipse of the Heart,â under whose operatic pretensions I swooned as a teenager. âI couldnât resist using it,â he says of a song that goes, âOnce upon time there was light in my life / But now thereâs only love in the dark.â âI actually wrote it for another vampire musical that was based on Nosferatu, but never got produced.â Close listening to the CD sampler for interested investors also reveals a rehash of the vigorous âTonight Is What It Means to Be Young,â his song for the film Streets of Fire, which I saw in Los Angeles in 1984 and sent me racing along Mulholland Drive to keep up with the propulsive beat.
As for the new stuff, maybe 50â˛s rock ânâ roll with a 70â˛s preen isnât what the 80-year-olds who constitute Broadwayâs audience want to hear (and Jimâs rock-mock-Wagnerian shtick admittedly tends to play better in London and Las Vegas than in Manhattan), but my sources say they knew from the first number -- an angelic trio with a beguiling (what did they used to call it?) melody and some expert (the Andrews Sisters used to do it) harmony -- that this would be my kind of score. Frankly Iâm glad; since the prehistoric vinyl days, Steinman has been the guy I keep calling for to rejuvenate, or just plain juvenate, the Broadway musical, in a world where the musical theater establishment pronounces old ABBA records a hip pop sound.
The book, while reportedly in better shape than the April reading, is something else again. From the excerpts on display last night, the mix of bawdy humor and eroticism still needs fine-tuning. Says Sonenberg, âBy the time we open, it will be a new version of the show, significantly changed with a view toward a New York audience, but right now it plays very much like the original in several respects.â Adds David Ives, âThe German production is probably more faithful to the film, but itâs a fairly humorless show, with people getting hit on the head with salami. And Iâve been brought in to take out the salami and put in the chorus girls, without veering into camp in the process. Now itâs just a question of finding the balance, which, needless to say, isnât easy. But I like what weâve accomplished so far: Meatâs character is vastly different, a much more multifaceted, dynamic, complete figure. Weâve also made other changes and cuts and restructured the show into a book musical, with dialogue; the original is all sung. I think weâve made it a much more interesting story.â
Time, as always, will be the ultimate arbiter of fate.

compiled list of headcanons for one Mr Sam Evans ! some have already been posted but have been tweaked in this post for clarification / better wording . ( template not mine ! )
SEXUALITY & AFFECTION .Â
Sam is 100% pansexual. Thereâs absolutely no doubt about it in my mind.Â
Those feelings were closeted for a very long time, pushed very deep down. Not because his family were homophobic (which they werenât/arenât) but because it was unacceptable in his old school. Sam went to an all boys school and there were very few gay people there and they were bullied insistently and physically / mentally / emotionally abused.Â
If Sam was experiencing feelings of attraction or arousal during his time at that school, he did a damn good job of hiding it. Pretending that it didnât exist.Â
When Sam moves to McKinley, he begins to realise that being gay is okay. That being anything other than straight is okay. Kurt was his first example of that and then Blaine. They were definitely the two most important role models for the first few years at McKinley.Â
Even though Sam is incredibly accepting of other peopleâs sexualities & genders, it took a much longer time for Sam to come to terms with his own sexuality. Hence why he was always so skittish whenever asked about his sexuality, especially from Blaine.Â
Eventually --- canonically, around the end of Glee S4, Sam finally comes to terms with his sexuality. After a lot of confiding in his close friends (Blaine included) and a fair amount of time spent googling, Sam finally had a term for what he felt. Pansexual. Sam isnât really a big fan of labels, never has been --- but it felt really good to have one in that moment.
He is absolutely shyer with boys than he is with girls. Boys make him twice as nervous as girls do because he has far less experience in dating boys or anything to do with boys in general.Â
That being said, Sam will do his absolute best to learn. To be better at it. Though heâs not afraid of being seen in public holding a boysâ hand. He does know what the world is like surrounding the LGBTQIA+ and he knows that people suck but he isnât ashamed of who he is anymore. He isnât ashamed to completely know who he is. So heâll absolutely hold his partners hand in public, will kiss them in public too.Â
RELATIONSHIPS .Â
Any kind of romantic relationship makes Sam very, very, wary. Heâs incredibly cautious & nervous about them and it takes a fair amount for Sam to even consider entering one after everything heâs been through with the McKinley girls.
Sam has a fair amount of abandonment issues, along with trust issues and some other baggage. To begin with, Sam is incredibly clingy and worried. He panics and overthinks, which leads to Sam convincing himself that heâs doing something wrong --- that he isnât enough, that he deserves to be cheated on.Â
He would absolutely rather pine over someone that he likes as opposed to telling them straight to their face. Mostly because heâs terrified that the person will make fun of him for it or shun him because of the fact that his entire life story has been spread throughout McKinley high. (homeless, stripper, etc.)
It takes a long time for Sam to work his way out of the bad mental space regarding relationships because of how many times heâs been cheated on before. He will get out of it, it just takes a while for that to happen.
That being said, though, when Sam does enter a relationship --- he enters it completely. 110%. When Sam loves someone, he loves them hard and with everything he has. Sam Evans has a very, very, big heart and it shows when heâs in a relationship with someone. Hell, it shows in his friendships.Â
Even though Sam doesnât have a lot of money, he will still do his absolute best to spoil his partner. Not having much money means that he needs to get creative with date ideas and anniversary/Christmas/birthday presents. He likes to think he does a pretty good job.Â
Sam is an incredibly loyal boyfriend. He is incredibly caring and very sweet, very considerate of his partners feelings. He is also very, very, sensitive. Proof of point: when he was kissed in canon by that photographer while he was dating Mercedes, he cried immediately afterwards because he felt so guilty even though he didnât kiss her back and had no intention of kissing her back, either. He owned up to it immediately, too.Â
APPEARANCE (Â trigger warning for eating disorder mentions ! )
Samâs hands are very rough & calloused. Both from playing the guitar non stop as well as lifting weights every single day. Some people think that his hands are soft from first glance but they definitely are not. He has a lot of callouses along his palms.Â
Sam is tall. About six foot one. Around 140lbs or 10 stone. Heâs very close to being underweight for his height. The reason being that Sam has an eating disorder. See more about that HERE, if youâd like.Â
At some point during Samâs twenties, he realises that he has a problem (with the help of friends depending on the verse) and decides to seek help for it. Itâs a lifelong problem that isnât going to go away with a snap of his fingers, as much as he wishes it will but going to therapy does help along with a few other methods. But the problem will always be there and he will always have a very, very, complicated relationship with his food.Â
While he might look skinny / unhealthy, he is muscular. He works out pretty regularly (sometimes to the point of fatigue/dangerous levels) and it shows. He has minimal body fat because seeing any kind of body fat/rolls/any kind of sign that heâs fat or overweight (even if he isnât) gives him really bad body dysmorphia.Â
Samâs nail beds are pretty much ruined by the time he hits twenty one. The skin around his thumbs are pretty gross looking, too. He bites/picks at his nails and bites/picks at the skin by his fingernails, a tic & sign of his anxiety.Â
WORK, HOME & SCHOOL LIFE .
Sam has had quite a few jobs in his lifetime. Granted, they were all pretty short term & paid pretty abysmally but they were jobs nonetheless.Â
At one point while Sam was in the Glee Club, he also joined the swimming team for a while, as well as the football team (and had the quarterback position for a while). Not to mention the fact that he regularly volunteers at homeless shelters for no other reason than the fact that he can (although he somewhat knows what itâs like to lose the roof over your head). He also worked at Dairy Queen, was a night time pizza delivery boy and was also an exotic dancer.Â
He might look lazy, he might look spacey and distracted but nobody in the world can convince me that Sam Evans doesnât work fucking hard. He was doing all of this to try and maintain his status at high school (re: popular kid) as well as bring in enough money to help out with the rent for the motel room, groceries each week & anything that his siblings might need (school books, shoes, shirts, etc).Â
Speaking of the motel room ... the motel room that Sam and his family stayed in wasnât all that big. There was one double bed in the room, with a very small TV and a dresser. There was no indication as to whether or not there was a kitchen (I assume there would be, however small) or a bathroom (again, I assume there was - it was probably just very small). That motel room was bursting at the seems, given that it was intended to sleep two people and instead had FIVE in there. The double bed would have been for mom and dad and there was a small fold up bed to the side, which I assume would have been for the kids to sleep on in the head & tail position. Sam wouldnât have let his parents or his siblings sleep on the floor, which left only him to sleep on it. All the while working, attending Glee club as well as other after school clubs & acting like everything was fine when it clearly wasnât.Â
Sam absolutely does the same thing that Fiona (Gallagher - Shameless) does in regards to saving up money. He works as many side jobs as he can, preferably ones that are cash in hand & hire under 18s, then puts the funds in a pot and hides it away, makes sure to write down how much he earned that night and keep a tally so that he knows what they can afford for the week / month, in regards to bills and other household needs. He doesnât buy things for himself, he canât afford luxuries even on a good payment - everything he earns goes towards his siblings care, his parents and the house/motel. He always runs himself down and stretches himself as thin as possible to make ends meet and to make sure that his family have food on the table because heâs the only one of the three kids that can legally work.Â
PERSONALITY .
Sam is insanely loyal. To the point where, if he trusted you, he would follow you into battle (or an equally dangerous situation with little to no care about himself). He is an insanely loyal friend, will always protect them and be by their side & defend them when theyâre not there, to bullies and the likes.Â
Unconventionally smart. Doesnât really understand much about the real world & its details but can name all of the hobbits in Lord of the Rings as well as nearly every character / spell from Harry Potter. Likes to use fictional situations and apply them to the real world and nine times out of ten, it works.
Cares far too much. Has an incredibly big heart. Always working on himself, always working to become a better person with better ideals. Very open minded and accepting of everyone in the world. Is full of tons of love, even after all that heâs been through. Hasnât let the world corrupt him too much just yet.
Funny. Likes to make jokes, likes to do dumb impressions that he knows are cheesy or a little bit stupid so long as it makes his friends smile because thatâs all he wants to do, make his friends laugh, smile & forget their problems for a minute or two.Â
Not much of a talker but a very good listener. Will listen to your problems and try his best to offer up some kind of solution or advice. Very empathetic, will try and put himself in his friendsâ shoes to understand their problems if possible.Â
Compassionate. Full of excitement. Loves to be around his friends. It gives him energy. Isnât so much a fan of strangers, though.Â
HOBBIES .
Sam is really really good at Macaroni Art (as seen in Guilty Pleasures).
He is also pretty damn good at playing the guitar. Nine times out of ten, he only has to hear a song play once or twice before he can play it almost perfectly on the guitar.
Not to mention the fact that Sam is a big ass nerd. He loves playing Video Games. No matter the console. Most of the time, heâd play on his friends consoles when he was invited over for dinner or for a sleepover. His family couldnât afford a console of their own for a long time.
PokĂŠmon is one of his all time favourite games to play, along with Mario Kart, Super Mario Brothers & The Sims. He likes a lot of games but those are definitely his top contenders.Â
He likes playing board games, too. Like snakes & ladders, monopoly & checkers.
