he’s so loud. he has no inside voice and all he does is shout when he speaks and he doesn’t know what whispering is
he can’t see for shit… in canon era he has his dorky 1890s glasses (think dwsa. i love you obc but those glasses are an abomination) and in the modern au it’s about the same honestly. he’s legally blind
in canon era his parents are super odd and eccentric and they expect a lot from him. they wish their son was a prodigy but unfortunately he is not :/ they made him do piano his whole life and he enjoyed it at first but then they pushed him too far and now it’s kinda something he’s forced to do. they brag about him in public and berate him at home and it sucks but he manages
but in modern au his parents are really cool ! they’re still eccentric but in a kind way this time. they own a secondhand bookstore (his dad was a chemist before he met his mom) and they love their geek son and support him in everything he does
he’s jewish. obviously. but he’s obsessed with christmas music and listens to it all year round (also his mom puts up a christmas tree anyway because she thinks they’re neat)
in canon era + modern au he likes to read; in canon era it’s mostly whatever he can find but in modern au he likes science fiction. think the old science fiction though like stuff from the 80s that’s really elaborate with like 25 books in a series
speaking of science fiction him and otto are star wars geeks
in modern au he’s also a video game nerd and let’s be real he watches anime (quality ones tho)… he likes rpgs and mmorpgs (like world of warcraft) and owns a bunch of merch for everything he likes
he’s got a bunch of posters on his walls. they range from pictures of tchaikovsky to anime characters to video game promos
he’s in stem at school because he likes science/engineering but he’s also in the school choir because he has the voice of an angel (belting…)
he also plays piano and violin at school but mainly piano. he’s the only person in choir who can play it well so girls pretend they care about him so he’ll play piano for them so they can sing their lame indie songs during breaks in class
melchior, moritz, ernst, and otto are his only friends but otto is his best friend. he doesn’t get bullied like moritz does but people make fun of him because he’s a geek. he honestly doesn’t care though… like he’ll have moments where it gets to him when he’s just alone and in his thoughts but for the most part he couldn’t be bothered
except by the reformatory boys (who in modern au are just the kids who go to the public school by georg’s house). they throw stuff at him when he walks to school (he can’t drive and otto can’t always pick him up)
he’s the only boy in their friend group who goes to a real university after school and he gets a degree in some sort of engineering but then his parents tell him they want him to inherit their secondhand bookstore. and he obliges and that is when he lives his true best life
his birthday is april 4th… aries
he has two cats (their names are bastard and concrete; bastard’s actual name is oreo but he only calls him bastard) and some budgies… the budgies are his mom’s though
he’s a good listener and will listen to anyone rant and ask them a bunch of questions
he eats really fucked up foods and thinks they’re normal. like he puts ice in hot macaroni to ‘cool it down’
he’s lactose intolerant and also has asthma (in canon era and modern au) but he doesn’t care. he’ll eat any dairy product and will run down the stairs no matter how hard his lungs threaten to give up
georg has no idea how romance works. he doesn’t understand dating or girls or flirting or any of that
for the way he dresses in modern au see my modern au clothing style hc post
he has an unabashed confidence that’s incomprehensible but he’s been hyped up by his parents his entire life in modern au so he really can’t be that bothered by insults. in canon era it’s another story tho… he’s more insecure
he’s obsessed with shows like forensic files. he can sit and watch them for like hours… him and otto are roommates after high school and their tv is just on at like 3am playing forensic files
him and otto’s favorite word is bastard. they call each other it constantly and they sound like enemies when in reality they’ve just been best friends since elementary school and have evolved past using names
