“Oh my god you actually showed up.” Ezra said with a bright smile holding up two squirt bottles filled with paint. The kids were interested in learning about art and Ezra thought the best person to teach them was his very own artist Mingyu. He pointed over to his desk where some breakfast was laid out, “I brought you food as promised and we can totally hang at my place after school.” He then turned going back to setting up the classroom putting small canvases on the tables and squirting some paint on a paper plate. “Do you have any questions? I know you will be a natural.” He looked up a wide boxy smile on his face.
Where: Ezra’s Apartment
When: Early Morning
With: @jack--valentine
Ezra collapsed on the couch bringing a cup of orange juice to his lips yawning as he looked out his window at the street below. Downtown was actually really beautiful before the people woke up and ruined it. He turned a small smile dancing on his face and looked at the other figure in his apartment, “So did you want to just run this morning? Or we could try and take a hike somewhere pretty like in those inspirational lifetime movies.” He laughed and pointed to his fridge. “You can get anything you want or even rob me because I am not fully awake to comprehend your intentions.”
“Never say goodbye because goodbye means going away and going away means forgetting.”

CHARACTER BIOGRAPHY
PAST
Space. When people asked him what he lacked in his childhood he would always answer the same thing. Space. Ezra was born in Hell’s Kitchen Manhattan right smack in the middle of New York City. Not only did he live in the most crowded state and the most crowded city and the most crowded neighborhood, but also in the most crowded family. Ezra was the second child out of four in the Kim household. He had two sisters named Sydney and Eva and an older brother named Jasper. They all lived together on the 16th floor of an apartment building on 51st street. His parents owned a nearby bodega and Ezra could remember spending many afternoons manning the cash register or “stocking” the candy shelves. Again, no space. If he was at school he was in a crowded classroom, at home he shared a room with his brother and the shop was filled with customers. Something Ezra didn’t think to take for granted at the time. When Ezra started middle school a new chain of stores opened across the neighborhood. They began pushing out local businesses by buying the shops with cash or just beating them out by offering lower prices. While many stores lost the battle to the corporate entity Ezra’s parents had a following and were able to survive. His parents resisted the chain no matter how much money was thrown their way. However, when blank checks weren’t working soon red and blue lights were brought to the table. Unbeknownst to him his parents were here on an expired student visa from when they were in college and before he was able to even process what that meant they were both deported back to South Korea leaving him and his oldest sibling in the US. Sydney and Eva were too young at the time to understand what was going on so they decided that it would be best for his parents to take them back to South Korea with them. This left only Ezra and his brother to hold the family afloat by sending money back whenever they could. Months and months past and as much as Jasper and Ezra tried to create a steady stream of income back to their parents America was sucking them dry. After a while they believed they finally caught a break when Jasper was offered a position out on the west coast. He said he would go out there and check out the position and when he made enough money, he would send Ezra a ticket to join him. This was seven years ago, and he had not heard from his brother since. The first couple of weeks they seemed to talk everyday Jasper telling Ezra how exciting California was and how the air just seemed to be different. But after a while the calls stopped and soon Jasper was no longer picking up his phone or answering his texts. Ezra tried to call the police but what could he do since he lived on the other side of the country. They laughed him off and told him that his brother was just off with some girl. Ezra would always tell them that his brother would never do that but as the years past he wondered if they were right. Unable to support a New York bill on a 15-year old’s salary Ezra got on the nearest bus route he could find and road it all the way into the south. That’s when he stepped into Asteria, North Carolina a place he had never heard of before and the rest is history.
PRESENT
Bullet Points of Ezra’s life:
· Thanks to the kindness and Pity of a local landlord Ezra was able to land himself a sublet in the landlord’s apartment building downtown.
· At the age of 16 he started working at the local day care center which established in him a love for kids he never thought existed.
· At the age of 18 he applied for an assistant teacher position at a local elementary school. Where he met Ms. Robyn, the local Kindergarten teacher.
· When he turned 20 Ms. Robyn pushed him to apply for the Kindergarten lead teacher position when she retired and surprisingly, he made it.
Present Day
He currently works as the lead Kindergarten teacher of class 3 and he loves it more than anything he ever thought he could be when he was younger. Despite the judgement of some of the other teachers in the school Ezra has become a school favorite. He currently is paying a private investigator to find his brother and is lying to his family saying that Jasper is currently away in the military and can only send letters home.
Wanted plots & Headcanons (if any)
Workout Buddy/ Brotp: Ever since he was little Ezra always had a competitive nature wanting to win at everything from basketball games to guessing the exact time one of his kids would fall for their nap. His friends would normally not entertain this side of him, but this person was always different. They both had a love for anything athletic, so they spent a lot of time together. From hiking in the morning to late night basketball games if you saw them together, they were probably sweaty and out of breath.
Older Sibling Imprint: He would never admit it but he cherishes this person’s opinion more than anyone elses and considers them an older sibling. They are able to give him some stability in a life that has been thrown upside down ever since he was little.
Roommate: As if fate had tied them together the two had become quick friends and even quicker best friends. Attatched at the hip you could always find one by looking for the other. Which makes it no surprise that they decided to live together.
Partner in Crime: Ezra's Partner in Crime. The person he can drop down all his guards with. Ezra and this person spend many nights together around town where trouble seems to find them wherever they go. Waking up with a few bumps and bruises was just the price to pay for an amazing night out.
with; open to anyone who is at the highschool @asteriastarters
“Keep your finger on the wall...on the wall...Keep your finger on the wall...on the wall.” Ezra sung out as he took his class down the main hallway that would lead them to the gym. Today was supposed to be their in the future day where they go to the local high school and meet some highschoolers and talk about their futures. What he didn’t expect was that a hurricane would hit and they would be trapped inside this building currently looking for shelter. As they walked through the second hallway a gust of wind lifted a branch from the outside causing it to hit one of the windows. Ezra quickly ran over and shielded the students the brunt of the impact hitting him and sending him into a couple of lockers. He looked up and was met with another figure, “Look, I am fine! Just make sure the kids are okay.” He got up ignoring the pain in his wrist and ankle. “Remember class~ Keep your finger on the wall..on the wall~” He sang as they finally made it to the gym. “Thank you so much!”
