high school gods (insp. @okayodysseus)
likes: the art department being funded, selfies with his sister, his mother and sister in general, cheap big brands, volume turned up → world tuned down, learning as much as possible, tarot cards, generally being the best
dislikes: losing to anyone, liar liar (as long as you don’t get caught), cynical brats, orion being anywhere near his sister, people being judgemental about others’ music choices, eros
favourites: any instrument, his vinyl player, large cities, primo levi’s if this is a man, the scottish play, his mythic tarot deck, sunglasses with a golden frame
He’s an odd one, a mixture of the jock, nerd, hipster, and prep, but also something that can’t be defined. He gets along with everyone, and it’s truly remarkable to watch him change his personality so easily, but still remain undeniably him. When his temper light up though, he’s just as malicious and vengeful as the rest of his group - perhaps even more so - but you won’t know he’s hunting you until you’re struck by an arrow of the same gold as that on his sunglasses.
His hobbies are as diverse as his girlfriends; from creating music, painting, and other arts, to pouring over as many books as he can get his hands on and remaining top of the class, to showing up everyone on the athletics field, soccer, and football, or to odder interests such as tarot reading - Apollo is a boy with many interests and succeeds in all (but not in acquiring a permanent relationship - not that he appears to want one). Everyone knows he’ll be the Student Council President when he goes into the senior year and even Zeus - the current President - admits it, reluctant as he may be to give up his authority.
Before all that, however, Apollo has one priority; his family, in particular his sister, Artemis. More often than not he’s the voice of reason to her untamed nature and keeps a boy from being permanently scarred by his sister. There are a number of people, however, for whom he has little room for reason, all of whom can all be accounted for on two hands. Most notably is Orion, only for the reason that no one really knows what happened between the twins and Orion; just that it ended with Orion in hospital. After that, people were far more cautious of the silver tongued golden boy.
