SHARE 5 FUN FACTS ABOUT YOUR CHARACTER
kian began transitioning at 16 with the support of his parents and sister. he takes testosterone shots on a biweekly basis, and currently works at the local morrisons to save money for his top surgery.
the yang to clarke’s yin, kian is fiercely protective of his sister. if it weren’t at the insistence of their parents, he wouldn’t have come on the retreat as they’d be separated for longer than a couple nights.
in school, he was a bit of an outcast — both by force and by choice. kids weren’t always the friendliest to him or clarke, and while his sister dealt with bullies by retracting further into her shell, kian responded by lashing out. he got into fist fights, started carrying a switchblade around for protection; which eventually got him suspended from school for three weeks. the final straw, for their parents, was when he beat one of his sister’s tormenters so badly the guy ended up in a hospital.
pretty much every day is opposite day with this boy. if he says he’s doing alright, he’s not. if he says he wants to be left alone, he probably needs a hug. being emotional and shit is embarrassing, and the last thing he needs is to embarrass himself further than he already has by existing.
the love of kian’s life is a flop-sided bunny named georgia. apart from his sister, he worries about leaving her the most.
