biography
for the most part, i’m going to do my best to keep sebastian as close to his canon self as possible (with a few exceptions of lines/moments in the movie that were a little... iffy lol) but for those who aren’t familiar with the character, here’s a quick rundown of the important information, as well as a few of my own headcanons:
sebastian was born an only child into a ridiculously wealthy family, and as a result, was incredibly spoiled from birth. he lives his luxurious lifestyle to the fullest, without consequences or remorse for the toes he happens to step on along the way to getting what he wants.
(parental death tw/cancer tw) when he was eleven years old, his mother (who sebastian was very close with), passed away from cancer only a couple months after receiving the diagnosis. very shortly after his mother’s death, sebastian's father had already moved on - which is something sebastian still holds resentment towards him for.
strong bonds aren’t something sebastian has a lot of, as most of his relationships are pretty disposable to him. he doesn’t get attached easily, which probably traces back to the loss of his mother, but he would tell you that it’s because most people aren’t worthy of his time. he does, however, have a couple close friends, that he would take a bullet for... at least if it was in a non-lethal part of his body.
sebastian is very intelligent. he was always considered to be a “gifted child”, and he made straight a’s in school without having to put in much effort. unfortunately for those around him, he tends to use his smarts for not much more than revenge, or just causing harm to others for shits and giggles. a bored sebastian - which is typically his default state - is a dangerous thing to be around.
every since graduating from high school, sebastian has spent his time doing not much else besides enjoying the playboy life: sleeping around, partying, spending way too much money... really just indulging in all the finer things in life. though he has aspirations, such as becoming a writer, the fear of not being not only perfect at something, but the best at it, has stopped him from actually making an attempt at writing anything that’s not his daily thoughts in his journal. rejection and failure are not things sebastian takes easily, and he’s an incredibly sore loser. he plays to win, even if that means fighting dirty or cheating to get there.
note: though i am more than down for a sebastian/kathryn connection (if we happen to get a kathryn), it will either need to be fully platonic steb-siblings, or a similar dynamic to the movie, but with them as family friends/roommates/etc., rather than having a familial relationship.
