on the very rare occasion that he convinces kaid to watch the twins for a night and sends tai out for a sleepover, ray is allowed a little bit of leeway in terms of actually having a social life. like now, for example; as he shoots pool with some co-workers and nurses a beer. although he’s on a limit tonight, which means he can’t have more than two & has to be back before midnight. it’s fun enough, he’s laughing & having a good time, so much so that when he’s done his shoot & moves to back up; he fails to notice someone behind him and bumps into them. he grunts, glancing over his shoulder at them. “ sorry, didn’t see you there. ” he grunts out.
damn maggie, back at it again playing these damaged bad boys. hi all! i’m literally so excited to play this lil tol nugget because he’s been born in my heart for like ... a good week or so. anyway i’m maggie, hit me up if you wanna plot because my messages are 100% always open for you.
baby goes by ray because he fuckin hATES his name. so jot that down. if you call him baby you’ll catch these fists.
except like his siblings always call him baby, and they’re the exception.
BABY HAS LIKE...LIVED A LIFE LEMME TELL YOU.
he is the oldest of five children. FIVE. there are three boys, and a lil girl ( aka the princess of his heart ok ) there is a fifteen year old brother kaid, a ten year old brother tai, & five year old twins raylene & sire.
so to understand the present we must travel to the past; baby’s home situation was never ‘normal’. for the majority of baby’s childhood his parents were alcoholics & extremely absent parents who spent majority of their sobriety arguring & fighting. moreso his father, but his mother started to go to the deep end shortly after tai was born. ever since then she’s been in and out of their lives and baby’s been raising his siblings. ( i mean he’s always been taking care of them but now they’re like...legally his. )
BABY hates his father, like...despises him for the fact that he could never man up and take care of their family. he was a selfish, useless, deadbeat and baby was extremely glad to see the guy walk out on his own to turn to his addictions( except just the house, the rat would always come snooping around his mother when she was out of the house...thus how the twins were born. )
so he’s been kind of...forced to grow up real quick, thankfully he had the means to just graduate, but just that. he’s been deemed ‘the rock’ of the family, having to be strong for his baby siblings.
in high school he was known to be a skipper & a ‘rebel’. which would mean he was often hanging out with the ‘wrong’ crowds & never took anything seriously. ( despite this he has a decent iq and knows shit. )
though after his mother finally succumbing to her addictions as well in his senior year baby had to snap out of it and finish high school so he could get a good income to support his siblings.
tbh speaking of knowing shit baby literally knows almost all the dirt in town, mechanics talk a lot of shit on the job lol.
he’s never really had serious, longterm relationships & fails to really seek that out, this may be due to his emotional state in which it’s never really developed outside of his family due to immense trust issues & his obvious daddy issues.
so when baby was 18 he managed to seek help with child & family services, pleading his case to allow him to take his siblings under his wing & the agency agreed to help him with financing an apartment to fit the five siblings.
now that he’s older the cps have less involvement in their lives, though do check up on the family now & then.
baby is like...a closet bi who doesn’t know what to do with that. mostly he avoids it, because he feels he can’t do anything about it.
so basically baby is a 22 year old dad with four kids and life is like...okay now, but he is very emotionally unavailable, distant and exhausted from the hard work he’s had to endure for his siblings’ well-being.
in a nutshell...baby is like this cool, reserved, bad boy family man who is like something out of a motorcycle gang book okay. i love him.
and he’s 100% a self indulgent character, i just wanted to write a 6′4 giant who has a heart of gold who can’t convey feelings properly but MELTS UR HEART when u see him at the store with two TINY children riding his shoulders or holding his hand. be still my heart.
some plots i’d love to have are his ride or die, best friend, casual flings from the past, a crush on the same sex, emotional reliance companion ( aka someone who sees him when he is vulnerable, but just them alone ), some ex-friends from high school who baby had to cut out in order to support his siblings, ex girlfriend who baby didn’t do right by ???
