GIIIRRRLLLSSSS. being alone watching clouds sleeping sleeping taking naps chess DISLIKES: boys. (lie) being jealous excessive emotion loud people thinking he'll end up whipped like his dad being forced to try snakes cloudless days drinking generally socializing OTHER INFORMATION HISTORY: Matthew was born to a Japanese mother and American father, and raised in a simple household. His mother was a strict fire-spitting banshee that pressed her son to work as hard as he could, which most of the time he ignored. He was a very quiet child who didn't take the time to make many friends, which earned him the small nickname Shy from his mother, which only two people have ever been allowed to call him in his life. Despite his tendencies to get mediocre grades and sleep through most of his classes, he showed a lot of potential. He slid through school under the radar with no particular interest in anything besides watching clouds. Freshman year of high school everything changed, when by chance a teacher of his tricked him into taking an IQ test and it was discovered that his IQ was off the charts. After that he was forced to start actually trying, much to his displeasure. He was advanced into all AP classes but despite his genius status he wanted nothing more than to draw. He excelled brilliantly in his art classes and despite the frustration his mother felt, he was allowed to enter an art institute. He moved away from his parents home and settled in Pastora Valley, got a part time job at a local bookstore and continued to study his art. FEARS: being whipped like his father his art turning out to be worthless getting too close to people being vulnerable falling in love and being destroyed HOBBIES: working - more like slacking off at work cloud watching sleeping playing chess - more often than not against himself by rimy ♥ of btn!
