Lefou gushed as he lifted his precious cat that had managed to escape from his house. “I mean can you just look at him? I swear. Cats are the sweets little angels on this side of the universe. How could I ever say no to this adorable thing?” He chuckled softly. “Also, he has the right name. Houdini. My little escape artist.”
he wasn’t exactly a cat person, but he didn’t necessarily dislike them either. to each his own, right? but, they were pretty cute in his eyes, no matter his preference and the one being cradled in the strangers arms was definitely no exception. « don’t think a cat’s ever asked me for anything, so can’t say i’ve ever said no! » he joked, bright smile curled against his lips as he leaned a little closer to get a better look. « houdini sure is a unique name though. »
“Damn. Can’t a man set his briefcase down for five minutes without someone stealing his seat?” he asked in a rather frustrated town as he looked down at the boy. Considering how he seemed to be ignored, Clayton took the quiet moment to look him over, eventually realizing who it was. “Kid, did you hear me?” he asked again, tapping him on the shoulder this time.
jolted back to reality by the gentle tap on his shoulder, bolt looked up to the man who, he assumed, had just asked him something. blinking his confusion out, guilt shone as clear as day on his after having not heard anything. « i’m.. i’m sorry, could you repeat that? » this wasn’t exactly his best day and appearing even the tiniest bit rude wasn’t exactly on his agenda. but what could the blonde do other than sit down, visibly confused and a little shaken up by the whole ordeal?
Destiny had watched for awhile, people were all around him and she could see that he was trying his best to keep his cool. It must be hard to always have people wanting pictures with them, she didn’t really know who he was as she didn’t very much keep up with celebrities that were around at Avenir. He was familiar though but seeing him struggle like that made her not approach. He probably had enough for now and honestly Destiny wasn’t really the one to ask famous people ( she at least guess that he was ) for autographs. She watched him as the people finally gave him space and then she slowly walked over and reached her hand out that was holding a water bottle “ hmm here, I think you need this more than me “
looking up, he was met with a water bottle being held out. random acts of kindness were always appreciated but something about this made him feel at ease -- with a soft smile, he took it from the stranger’s grasp and popped it up before chugging down enough to make a fish drown ( who knew all that could make a person so thirsty? ) « t-thank you... » he coughed into his hand after a flow with down the wrong tunnel. however, bolt wasn’t so sure what to do with it now so he simply placed it to the side before directing his attention completely onto the stranger. his smile brightened a tad, however. « you wouldn’t believe how much i needed that. » that’s when he grew just the slightest bit embarrassed. after all, a great escape like the one he made out of that crowd may have been entertaining to wash but maybe not the most dignified thing he has ever done in his life.
“You alright there….?” Ariel stared down at him concern written all over her face. She’d merely been passing by when she spotted the crowd. Her instinct being to go over and see what was going on, but with the number of people and how petite she was, she doubted she’d get to find out. So she sought other ways to see, like climbing a statue to get a better view when it had dispersed before she could. The man was the only one left from the crowd, but didn’t seem to be doing well and it didn’t settle right with her to just leave him alone.
« i’m fine. just a little... frazzled. » frazzled. tired. a little shaken up. you name it. but bolt was, in some sad way, used to the unwanted attention that he could say he had gotten used to it. still, on days where it just came as a surprise, catching him off guard, he couldn’t help but feel a little overwhelmed. but the kindness and concern of the stranger was very well appreciated. ( as long as she wasn’t using this excuse to ask for an autograph, bolt was fine. ) the blonde inhaled a deep breath, moving his head away from his hands as he sat back against the bench and finally took a bit of time to inhale and exhale properly. « sometimes these things can just get the better of you, you know? »
Normally Emily walked more than one dog at a time for work, but the little terrier at the end of her leash was a special case. Other dogs made him too nervous and he was prone to snapping and getting aggressive. With people, however, he was entirely content and actually quite loving. Still, when she saw a small crowd ahead she decided to scoop the dog up in her arms, not wanting him to get overexcited. As she neared she recognized the young man who broke away from the mess of people- who wouldn’t have recognized Brian Burbank? His posture when he sat concerned her, but she hesitated approaching him. Perhaps he just needed some time alone after all that… But even so she found herself unable to just walk away and slowly approached. “Are you alright?”
looking up, the first thing to catch his attention was the dog. now, bolt loved dogs. ever since he was a little boy, the furry companions had a special place in his heart. the only problem was that he was never allowed to have one. conflicting schedules and almost no free time made it hard for him and his sister to care for one, no matter how much they each begged. and so, even if he loved them, he had no idea what to do. the smallest smile curled against his lips as he looked at the little dog nestled in her arms before he snapped back to reason -- as much as he wanted to pet it, he wouldn’t say a word. « i’m fine. just a little... frazzled, honestly! » he replied, a smile of reassurance curling against the edges of his lips but he was grateful for the stranger. not many people had done so before, deciding to look at his former stardom instead of his current self but bolt didn’t mind all that much... sometimes people couldn’t help what they did. « that’s a really cute dog you’ve got there. what’s his... her name?»
he thought he had gotten used to it. the cheering, the people, the crowds that formed. most importantly, he thought that the people in avenir were used to him. but who could escape the lone group of tourists, bustling about and chatting amongst one another about the sights to see until out pops a former child star. that’s when the small crowd happened. though he knew how to keep his cool, wide smiles and taking pictures with every single person there, it was tiring and often resulted in a mild migraine ( what with the flashes from cameras and everyone trying to talk to him one by one. ) who knew being the star of a show that ended five years ago could still attract that much attention. still, bolt pushed passed his own nerves until he finally managed to get away. plopping himself down on a park bench, head held in his hands as he tried to catch his bearing, he hadn’t quite heard the voice inquiring just above him.
say hello to my second sweet boy brian burbank aka BOLT!! and that’s all he goes by for now because he’s just way too used to the nickname to change it!! he used to star in his very own television show ( which essentially became his whole life ) but after suffering from a mental breakdown, he retired to avenir where he has a part time job in a pet store. more about the puppy boy under the cut!:
he’s been acting since a young age starting with cameos on popular shows and guest appearances but finally made his big cut when he was sixteen, starring in his own action show. the name of the show was a huge hit and soon, he acquired a very large fan base.
he got into acting after his adopted sister, penny, first began and whilst she was less popular, the two would become co-stars in his latest show.
he takes his acting job very seriously and rarely ever misses practice or reading his lines but the pressure of being a star in your own show was too much for him.
to calm his nerves, he started using alcohol as a coping mechanism. it got to the point where it became so bad that he would show up to set drunk.
however, the one that took it all was when he woke up in an unknown area, without a single memory as to what happened that night. it took him around two days before he finally managed to get home (thankfully he had cash on him.)
this is when he met his two new friends (mittens and rhino) and thats when he decided that to quit drinking which eventually led him to quitting the television show (well, killed off and his and penny’s actors were replaced.)
he then moved to avenir where he spent a year and a half in rehabilitation before retiring from acting completely. he now works park time in a pet store as well as attends night classes for business.
he did not have a normal childhood growing up so now he is trying his hardest to live a normal life with his sister in avenir.
he is extremely loyal to penny and his friends and a bit too over-protective. there is next to nothing he wouldn’t do for them. he is also sympathetic, easily confused and impulsive. but mostly hes a huge puppy.
bolt has a tattoo of a lightning bolt under his collar bone. its a memento from his days in television and also was used as his birth mark (a signature for the character.)
he is still very close friends with mittens and rhino who were his main supports during his rehabilitation and are now all currently roommates in house on edge of town.
he still gets recognised as the actor from his show, which he doesnt necessarily mind, but being flocked around makes him nervous.
