to say that achilles was anxious at parties would be an understatement, especially when it was one as big as this. they generally stayed by the walls or somewhere near their roommate, just anywhere that was distanced from the general crowd. honestly, they were getting a bit antsy just sitting around, but not enough to be able to hold a conversation with someone else. instead, they approached matthias with a glass of ice water in their hand, offering it to him. “ you look like you need this. gotta remember to keep hydrated, you know ? seem to be having a good time time, though. ”
“unless you want me to write a sketch specifically about your fashion choices, i’d take that hat off. honestly. i have at least ten jokes just begging to be taken to the stage.” cece joked lightheartedly, her face only displaying a light smirk despite her humorous tone. “did you want anything else? i mean, other than being here to offend my eyes.”
they shifted their glance down towards their clothes. sure, the faded coca-cola shirt is a at least four years old and may have one or two holes near the bottom hem, but it was soft and they liked it. “ what’s the problem with it ? ” only mildly offended, achi shook their head. “ what i wear is none of your concern. ”
“in theory, though, wouldn’t the all stuff oreos get bad quickly? i can’t imagine the shelf life for the creme center would be very long.” he bit into another oreo, turning the package to his companion to offer them one. “i think i’ll stick with the good ole double stuff, myself, even if the all stuff oreos were just an april fool’s day prank.”
“ all stuf oreos would also be terribly messy and it would be impossible to eat more than three at a time without feeling sick. you need a balance of cookie and creme. ” they shake their head at the offer. “ i’m good thank you. you know that double stuffed isn’t even double stuffed, right ? ”

achilles “achi” sutter / 20 / bisexual as hell / agender (they/them) / plays preston north on lesliean /deaf in left ear (explained below. no one knows this & they do their best to cover it up so the media doesnt figure it out)
born and raised in a small town in virginia. they do have an accent, but they’ve learned to cover it up with a Generic American accent, however, on occasion it does slip.
**ABUSE TW** achi’s family was very very poor and they lived in a shitty double-wide trailer. dad was super abusive to their mom, emotionally and physically. around when achilles was 8, their dad moved on to them. mom was an enabler, never stopping dad because if they fought it, it would be worse. **END TW**
achilles started working jobs by the time they were 12. dog walking, mowing lawns, etc. etc. when they got a bit older, they worked 3 jobs: mechanic, waiter, and a tutor.
not wanting to end up in a trailer for the rest of their life, achilles applied for a highschool that was accelerated and basically for the rich kids. however, it was very expensive & the scholarship they offered wasn’t a full ride, so they had to give most the money they made from their jobs to school, which dad wasn’t that happy about. they ended up graduating from that school at 17 (skipped a grade in middle school) as valedictorian. got partial/full scholarships to multiple ivy leagues & other schools.
**ABUSE TW** okay, so, when they were 16, their dad found a paystub that showed that they were earning almost $7k more than what they were telling dad. dad got angry (he never liked the idea of achi going to a fancy schmancy private school & assumed that all the money was going to that when it was really going towards college funds). he ended up hitting/pushing achi hard into a railing, where the left side of their head hit it. that’s how they ended up losing their hearing in that ear. they had to continue living with their parents until college started **END TW**
college was a blessing. they decided to go to stanford university, majoring in bioengineering on a full scholarship. they thought they were happy there, however they did want something more. at stanford,
early in their first semester, achilles befriended a girl who they ended up “dating” for like 2 weeks before they decided to just stick with friends. she invited them over for thanksgiving break to the apartment she shared with their older cousin in los angeles. said older cousin was a model/actress. she was the one who got them interested in acting & longgg story short now they’re working in zenith as preston north on lesliean.
okayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy now some personality, eh? they’re generally quiet. when they get angered, they get super angry, which scares them afterwords bc they dont wanna end up like their father (which is their #1 biggest fear). they flinch when someone raises their voice or their hand in any motion that even mildly resembles a hit. they also hide the fact that their half deaf really well, just because they havent really come to terms with it and may break down if they accidentally try to like talk to someone over the phone on their left side because it reminds them (again) of their father.
super prideful and wont accept anything that seems like charity. despises pity.
aight that’s all folks see you on the flip side !!
