DELILAH: hey babes i've tried making cannolis for the first time and i need a guinea pig
DELILAH: you interested in some free baked goods?
CARTER: it took me a second to realize you weren't actually calling me a guinea pig, but that might be because i've been locked into the world cup final.
CARTER: uh, of course i am. to what do i owe this pleasure?
watching her boyfriend take countless pictures of the after party without sparing so much as a glance at her, zoey found herself leaning against the wall and swirling her drink around in her glass. it was getting ridiculous – she could’ve stripped down and walked past him completely nude and he wouldn’t have noticed, or maybe he would if the light was hitting her just right; she threw back the rest of her drink and set the glass down on the nearest tabletop. she pushed off the wall and slipped back into the throngs of people, eyes scanning the room until they landed on her boyfriend, who probably didn’t even remember she existed. fed up, zoey grabbed the nearest person by the collar and pulled them to her, pressing her lips firmly against theirs. after what she deemed an acceptable amount of time, she pulled away and glanced over her shoulder – xander hadn’t looked up from his camera. if she were a cartoon, steam would be coming out of her ears. “sorry,” she said to the person she’d kissed, not looking up. “i was just – sorry.”
having never been to a legitimate hollywood soiree despite living in the city for over a year, it was safe to say carter was nervous. he tried not to let it show, though, mingling with as many people as he could and cracking a joke whenever possible. without fail, laughter truly was the best thing he could offer anyone, even strangers. he’d been trying not to withdraw into himself, because apparently one needed thick skin to work in hollywood. he couldn’t lie--words definitely hurt when said the wrong way, but at least he hadn’t been scorned completely yet. he’d been so lost in observing everyone else that he almost didn’t realize he was being grabbed onto. and then he was kissing someone, just out of nowhere. when the redheaded girl pulled away, carter couldn’t help but pick up on how agitated she looked. “no, uh--no worries. it happens.” did it really happen often, though? he wondered how stupuid it had been to say that. “i mean, not to me, but...i get it. um...” he paused, cheeks slightly red as he followed the girl’s gaze. “would it help or hurt your case if you broke his camera?”

yes hi hello, this is me accepting my trash life
TW: death mention
listen....this guy
he jokes around a lot bc his number one goal is to make ppl happy :(
he’s never known his mom bc she died eight hours after he was born
he’s also hella close with his dad, legit would do anything for that man bc he put carter first through everything
his dad never remarried but carter grew up with two cousins so he never really felt like he missed out on anything (wc?? maybe??)
got the beeeeest of both wooooorlds
no but really bc he was into basketball and baseball but also theatre in high school
kinda has a temper tbh
his therapist thought it might be stemmed from his mother’s passing and the lack of like, that maternal nature in his home
he controls it pretty well most days
count on him to make you laugh or smile at any time ur feelin’ down. like he literally lives to cheer people up bc he knows what it’s like to feel low.
booked the role of jonathan knight last year just after a fallout with some friends led to him getting arrested for b&e (his anger def comes back to bite him in the ass....it’s not really physical anger mostly just emotional issues) and his conditions were 1)therapy, 2) to focus on acting (he had a long phone call with his father who threatened to move him back to new york city if he didn’t figure his shit out)
so yeah this is him figuring his shit out
he has his mother’s initials tattooed on the inside of his wrist
really wants a puppy more than anything in this world
also roommates would be swell
someone to keep him in check??? make sure hes fed, hydrated etc
just don’t wake him up at five am he’s not a morning person without caffeine
