Introducing the old money nerd

Cecil literally can't stand it and he would roll his eyes, banging himself with his book or insult them with profanities), Brace Face (used by multiple people in Bullworth Academy. In Cecil's humble opinion, it's not that bad than 'Metal Mouth', but he's not really fond of the nickname)

Preferred name: Cecil (why you may ask? Because he hates his own first name, he gets bullied because of it and gets made fun of everyday. Although he tries to tell people that he would rather be called 'Cecil', they still call him Atticus. However, there are quite several people who respect him and call him Cecil)

Background:

He was born in Marseille, France to a famous historian father, Francis Sinclair and a famous supermodel mother Angelica Sinclair (neé Zieliński), and is the great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandson to and a descendent of the 14th mayor of Bullworth, Hugo Sinclair. Atticus's father's side of the family has been in politics ever since the 1820s while his mother is from a middle class family with no connections at all until her model career starts to take off very well. The Sinclairs have been old money since the mid 1870s and is a very well respected family, especially in the world of politics. Cecil's father and mother first met at the apartment in the Upper East Side, Manhattan, New York when they bumped into each other and the rest is history (*wink* *wink*). When they got married, they went to Marseille, France for their honeymoon and that's when Cecil was born. Francis named him Atticus (Cecil's first name) after his favorite character from How To Kill A Mockingbird, his favorite book and also the movie adaptation. Cecil growing up was quite serious about his studying, after Francis light-heartedly said to him, something about your future depends on studying and having good grades and Cecil has thought about that over and over again and took it very seriously. He didn't want a bad future, a future where he doesn't know what to do in life and ended up having no jobs due to his grades, not going to universities and not having a diploma!!! It's a nightmare for him, so he studies everyday and that makes him kind of isolated himself from his family and peers. He didn't even bother to ask his parents 'how are you?' or something that is going on involving them, he always has a book in his face or even his messy notebooks which contain his notes that he's always reading or writing during dinner. So the parents were growing tired of it and when Cecil was 11, they sent him off to Bullworth Academy. The school he could say was.. 'Obnoxiously weird' (if that makes sense to anyone else) but of course, what school would be there in Bullworth other than this school. None. Later, he joined the Nerds clique and the rest is history

______________________________

Personality:

Most people considered him as a 'studying obsessed freak' due to him always studying anywhere in school or even outside of the school, he always worries about his grades and not the people he cares about, which makes them have mixed opinions of him. He has the tiniest temper ever, if someone interrupts him or distracts him from him study, he would yell at them with no hesitation or even throw some small objects at them. He's quite controlling over his friends if they do not take their grades seriously, he's like a parent figure to them who's strict and always tells them to study. He would ask them to join him for a study group or else... Or else he would do 'something' that he might not regret (but in reality, he doesn't know what to do if they reject him) but nevertheless, his friends join him in the study group. He's a perfectionist when it comes to his grades and studying, it's not something that is considered healthy but he just can't seem to stop, it always bothers him if he doesn't study in a day or if he forgets to study. He studies until the side of his fingers has bruises on them or studies until the ink of his pen is completely empty. Although Cecil hates bullies, he actually doesn't care if someone is getting bullied, right in front of him or not. In his opinion, it's their problem not his and instead of helping the victim, he continues to study or ignoring them. He's easily annoyed at the smallest, tiniest thing ever, if he finds a tiny dirt on his shoe or a dirt on one of his books or even a mistake in his exam paper, he really gets bothered by it but the only thing bothering him the most is the smallest mistake on his exam paper that makes him study even more. If it gets out of control, he would play chess with one of his friends or by himself while listening to his favorite songs, it calms him immediately and releases his stress

Overall, Cecil only cares about his grades (and his future also) and nothing else

Infos about Cecil:

--- the reason why I put '?' on the love interest and the trope part it's because IDK WHO TO PUT AS HIS LOVE INTEREST 😭 basically he's available :3

--- he's a member of the newspaper club and he pretty much writes about 'school politics' as Cecil likes to call it (meaning he writes about school presidents and class presidents and writes about them as if they're real presidents. And also, he writes about current school events). He puts his full name, Atticus Cecil Sinclair on every school newspaper

--- his handwriting is very cursive and neat but almost everyone cannot read what he writes

--- his favorite character from any media is Atticus Finch from How To Kill A Mockingbird

--- he doesn't really hate the fact that his father named him after his favorite character

--- only the adults (+ his family) can call him Atticus because... They're adults and he respects adults except for really horrible adults

--- he's also a director of the school's theatre (he wants extra credit)

--- he has bandages wrapped around his right fingers due to having bruises on them from writing on his notebook nonstop while studying

--- he fights bullies to protect himself and is surprisingly pretty strong

--- his dream career is to be a journalist but if it doesn't work for him then he would be a professional chess player

--- his mother, Angelica is Polish on her dad's side

--- he drinks black coffee because he thinks it would boost his energy

--- he wears vintage inspired fashion

--- he has over 40+ novels (and books) on the shelves in his dorm

--- he has four cats. Grace (after Grace Kelly), Humphrey (after Humphrey Bogart), Audrey (after Audrey Hepburn) and Venus (after his favorite song by Frankie Avalon)

--- although he likes to reference politics, he doesn't want to be a politician because it's 'boring' to him

--- out of the Nerds, he thinks Melvin is pretty decent (other than Beatrice). Cecil plays GNG with him even though he hates playing it

--- he drinks soy milk while studying

--- he's a very organised person

--- he has a study table in his dorm

--- his favorite subject is English

--- his favorite movie is Dead Poets Society

--- his two favorite poets are Christina Rossetti and Oscar Wilde

--- his favorite phrase is "c'est la vie", which he says sometimes

--- if someone sees him, he's either writing something in his notebook (meaning he's studying) or reading a book thoroughly (meaning he's studying or maybe not, who knows?)

--- the preps don't bully him that much since Cecil is from an old money family but they still bully him for being a nerd and not joining their clique

--- Cecil voted for Ted Thompson instead of Earnest when Ted and Earnest were candidates for school president. It's because Earnest didn't listen to him after he told Earnest about changing the posters and the flags. So voting for Ted was a payback towards Earnest
