INTRODUCING COLLEN NICHOLS
Alberto Rosende | Nineteen | Theme Song: Believer - Imagine Dragons | Pinterest
Collen is one of Zander’s best friends and his former roommate. I actually headcanon these two were roommates from Freshman year up until the start of senior year when Collen had to leave (because ya girl can only have three muses, he had to go), and they’re really close. Although for anyone who knows the two this could be a surprise, because they’re a bit of an opposites attract duo. Collen is extremely outgoing, a massive goofball, and he actually knows how to dance and have fun. He’s Jewish, the son of two immigrants, and a massive nerd. He has a cat named Gwen Stacey, who is spoiled af. Collen is also the other half of the Elswood and Nichols Show (Ches’s joint DIY) channel, on top of being the frontman of a small band called Collen and the Winter Panda, who’ll be going on their first tour this winter if their bassist does well in rehab. He’s very do no evil, but take no shit, and honestly at times he really does foil Zander. If he ever came to visit, you probably are not gonna get the bromance apart because they’re still really close and they still talk every day, and Collen gets video called into family movie night.
Which I mean, given he’s Lucy’s ex... well, that’s a whole other thing.
INTRODUCING FAY BLACK
Martha Hunt | Twenty | Fay’s a minor character she doesn’t have theme/pinterest
Fay is Zander’s older sister’s girlfriend, who Grace is especially extra careful to keep the family from finding out about after everything with Balo. He doesn’t know her very well, but so far he thinks she’s really nice from the few video calls they’ve been in together, and he’s still really honored that he was the first one Grace came out to. He helps cover for them to the best of his ability, of course, and he’s glad to see Grace so happy, but he’s extremely worried about their parents finding out so he doesn’t follow her on anything - even if it hurts the girl’s feelings. He can’t risk being associated with her when he’s not associated with any of Grace’s other friends in LA.
