You’re getting three because my ow is secretly a harem anime
If Shaun were Doctor Frankenstein, then Charlie would have been his Igor. If Igor was only allowed to help out because they had dirt on the Doctor, just enough details that could get a certain Doctor jailed if it certain details were leaked to the public, and if Igor wasn’t a hunchback. Or if Igor was a woman who felt the need to look the part of a high school rebel from some cheesy 80′s film.
Shaun never bothered to read Frankenstein.
Charlie, Charlie, Charlie. Her bite is worse than her bark. She is bound by no rules, and, in turn, knows more than she should. Shaun really is lucky to know that she can bite her tongue when it counts.
She’s known around town as the girl given a false verdict over the murder of her parents and a younger sister. All the evidence was pointed at her; nothing ever came of it though, so it doesn’t really matter now. It’s been 18 years since then.
Today she lives with Shaun under the promise that she’ll take part in his study. Free housing. Free food.
In another life, Shaun could see himself with poor Joshua. He seemed almost perfect. Too perfect even. He was basically the ‘what-if’ version of Shaun’s previous partner: ‘What if’ he didn’t-
Most people would take one good look at him and never even know that he had a history of bad choices. Maybe it’s because he’s doing everything he can to turn himself around.
If emotional support humans were a real, legal thing, Joshua would be just that. There’s really not much else to him or his personality at first. Really, too good to be true. Because it is.
He was scouted by Shaun to be part of his study and they’ve been living together since.
“You’re holding me to stereotypes. If you don’t hold up your end of our deal, I’ll probably just be bitter and disappointed in you for the rest of our endless lives. But I know you better than that.”
Shaun’s closest friend, fellow doctorate student, and roommate. They’ve known each other since Leon was young. In fact, Leon sought him out specifically. He doesn’t do that very often. He doesn’t do much outside from taking care of his reptilian pets and reading for the most part. He hates being touched.
Leon directly translates to lion in Spanish, but there’s nothing lion-like about him other than his mane of black hair. Being 5′9, he has an average build and a wardrobe of only jeans and t-shirts.
Samuel is actually his middle name. He refuses to associate with his paternal side of the family in any way, but he never got to learn his mother’s maiden name before he was disowned. He was blinded after a quarrel with one of his older brothers. Because of his relations, however, he has access to a lot of things Shaun doesn’t. They often make small deals with one another to share info in exchange for extra groceries or help with notes.
