⌠ TOMMY MARTINEZ, 25, CISMALE, HE/HIM ⌡ welcome back to gallagher academy, AMADO FUENTES! according to their records, they’re a FIRST year, specializing in “MACGYVER” SURVIVAL SKILLS & NAVIGATION +KNIFE FIGHTING SKILLS, SWORD TRAINING, PRECISION SHOOTING, FIREARMS & SWAT TRAINING; and they DID go to a spy prep high school. when i see them walking around in the halls, i usually see a flash of (loud laugher, making and watching memes, messy hair, a book about space under his arm). when it’s the (capricorn)’s birthday on 1/2/1995, they always request their PABELLÓN CRIOLLO from the school’s chefs. looks like they’re well on their way to graduation.
Amado Mateo Fuentes was born on March 1st 1995 to two great and loving parents. He had a great childhood which is something that he never once took for granted. His parents were two huge hippies so he learned from a young age to love mother nature and appreciate what you are given in life. To never take anything for granted because you never know when you will lose everything.
School was hard for him, he got bullied due to the fact that his parents are not like the rest. They always stood out but he was never ashamed of that. He himself dressed in ways people considered weird and have never cared all that much about keeping his hair brushed and neat. He would much rather sit under a tree and read a book than spend time with the rest of the kids which yet again made him stand out which made it easier to bully him.
But he never let the words get under his skin, he let them say whatever they wanted to say. It was when they started to hit him that he got uncomfortable. That was when he felt all alone because no one stood up for him, no one protected him from the punches to the stomach and face. That turned the soft and naive boy a little cold and paranoid. Who can you truly trust?
As he got older the more he got bullied but his parents taught him how to deal with that. He also talked a lot to the teachers, making sure that they knew what was going on under their noses. That helped a little but he got weighed down due to the never ending abuse he had to endure at the hands of his bullies.
Becoming a teenager wasn’t easy either. Puberty made him feel alone, made him feel like an alien walking around on this planet. Because he never really got interested in girls. They showed interest in him but he never felt anything towards them. But boys? Oh around them he would get butterflies in his stomach and his cheeks would hurt due to smiling too much. He didn’t know what that meant and it scared him. Until he asked his parents and they told him about the beautiful rainbow of sexualities that existed in the world.
He came out as gay when he was 16. Which earned more bullying but he never cared about that, he stopped caring a long time ago. He had never seen anything bad about liking the same gender. He had never seen anything bad with being different. Coming out was the ego boost he needed and he became more and more confident in himself.
He enrolled in Spy Prep High School, gained some friends and had some boyfriends here and there. He started working out and he felt better in his own skin. The old Amado came back, the bubbly and happy boy that died years ago at the hands of his bullies.
Personality wise is he an actual living angel. He loves memes and loves a good laugh. He will walk around and try to spread happiness, not wanting to see people sad or angry. But he does have some fire inside which only can be seen if you bring someone down in his presence.
Denis is at a country club, working as a lifeguard for the summer. He spots someone from Gallagher, and immediately rushes over. “Hiiii! I’m undercover as ‘hot lifeguard #2’.” Whispering the last bit. “How’ve you been?”
A beaming smile formed when he saw Denis. “Well hello there, hot lifeguard #2″ he said and tilted his head to the side. “I have been good. What about you?” a country club may not be the setting you initially thought you would see Amado. But he was here with a friend, promising to be her platonic date for the evening. Besides free snacks, how could he say no?
“oh, i’m sure i’ll cry after this, too.” she is a crier, a known fact about her by most likely strangers as well as her closest friends. “i hope it’s something romantic like an impromptu wedding or proposal, rather than… we’ll, what we’ve been given.”
“I will always support people when it comes to displaying their emotions” Amado said, giving her a thumbs up. He would cry as well if he wasn’t so swept up in the energy surrounding him. Just wanting to party like there was no tomorrow. “It would be nice with a wedding”
“i can drink to that,” cal laughs, raising his glass despite the fact that it was most definitely water and not anything more exciting than that. he didn’t want to be hungover for graduation, and it wasn’t like he was that much of a drinker to begin with. “she’s… breathtaking,” he tells him, because why lie? he was absolutely blown away from his girl. he always was.
A soft chuckle left his lips and nodded. It felt weird knowing that so many people that he knew or had gotten used to seeing around campus would graduate in a few hours. Some he would keep in contact with and some he would only remember as a fleeting face in the crowd. It was quite sad and scary all at the same time. “You are so in love. I find that to be very good and reassuring that even in a place like Gallagher there’s love to be found”
“Hey, you’re doing shots with me,” Levi practically orders, handing over a shot to the person nearest to him with a grin on his lips, leaving them no choice. “I’m graduating tomorrow, so you can’t say no.”
Arching a brow when he heard his words, Amado then rubbed his hands together as a beaming smile formed on his lips. “Well how could I possibly say no to that?” he asked and then shrugged. “Bring it on, dude”
❝ hypothetically , if i had a bag of wings could i add a pair to your outfit ? ❞ kiki asked , a tagging gun already in one of her hands and said bag in the other . she was taking the theme far too seriously .
Tilting his head to the side, he then felt a smile form on his lips. “Sure! It would only make me stand out even more and truth be told with this outfit? That’s exactly what I want” Amado told her as he gestured towards the outfit in question.
“that seems like bullshit to me,” he pointed out, chuckling under his breath. he knew that his roommate hadn’t come with anyone. he wondered what he could do to help. “i agree.” he nodded in earnest. smiling knowingly, and with a slight blush, he nodded again. “i have,” he tells him. “and i was right. faith did help. and i owe her a big thank you.” raina was always beautiful, but tonight? she was stunning, almost heart-stopping.
“Nope. I like being able to just have a relaxing evening for once. In recent months there’s been way too much stress. So I am just content with standing here in silence” he said and nodded. Maybe that seemed odd but then again when had he ever been what people considered normal? “So she is a showstopper then?” Amado asked, arching a single brow.
“oh, absolutely not. it’s practically a nightmare come to life.” almost like all your most loved ones separating for the rest of your lives. “at this point, i think our normalcy is chaos. fingers crossed that if we ever have a reunion, there’s only one major turn of events to throw us all sideways.”
“Nothing wrong with being emotional. I have always been someone who embraces my emotional side. Cry all you want because now is the perfect time to show sadness, joy and everything that’s in between” Amado said and nodded. “Yeah you are right about that. Only time will tell, you know?”
( @gallagherstart ) “ oh — you were the person that i slept wit — I MEAN , wait , totally , like , not , “ gigi to giggles as she looks down at her snacks in front of her , pushing them together as to construe information . “ totally wish you were . this gala is a total bust , and i’m like , 110% sure you as my date would’ve made it like , a gazillion times better . “
Tilting his head to the side, he then smiled softly as he listened to what Gigi was saying. “What is stopping you from having me as your platonic plus one?” Amado asked and then held out his hand. “Would you like to dance with me?” it had been a long time since he had been out on the dancefloor. So it was about damn time.
“Hey, you’re doing shots with me,” Levi practically orders, handing over a shot to the person nearest to him with a grin on his lips, leaving them no choice. “I’m graduating tomorrow, so you can’t say no.”
Arching a brow, clearly surprised by the random demand, he then shrugged. “Sure. Why the hell not?” he had done a pretty good job with his studies this year so he felt like it was time for him to let loose and just have some fun.
“i actually don't see how more people aren't crying about graduation.” it's a sad attempt to make herself feel better before she lets out another sniffle, “especially with alcohol in the mix.” she’s on her fourth drink already, but the tears picked up around her second. “what do you think the chances are that we'll be able to do one of those big reunions in like 15 years so that this isn't the last time we’ll all be dancing together under one roof?”
“Yeah no alcohol is never a good mixture when emotions are running high” Amado said and chuckled softly as he looked at the other and then out at all the people who were having a good time. It was almost fitting to end this year on such a high. To not sit in a room and be angry or sad about the bullshit that took place but instead just forget about it for one fleeting second. “Hm well it would be nice to have some normalcy, don’t you agree?”
“having fun?” he asked, smiling at his roommate before he gestured to the room around them. “they really outdo themselves each time.” he took a sip of water and looked for his girlfriend, finding her quite quickly, seeing her standing with faith. happy to have placed her, he glanced back at amado. // @oflaughter
“The time of my life” Amado replied as he looked at Callum, smiling back at him. “They really do” he clasped his hands behind his back, nodding slowly. “But then again with the year we all have had here at Gallagher, I think it’s perfect to end it all with a bang” he then nudged the other. “So have you seen your girlfriend yet?”
