oK but if our backwoods trash children had a kid tho???
Name: Gage Logan Poe [Because fuck you I had him he’s taking my name.]
General Appearance: Gage is about 17, and stands at 5'9. In general, he looks more like his father than anyone else. The most noticeable of this is he has the same eyes. Heavy bags beneath them that make him look standoffish, the same color as his fathers. His hair is more sandy brown than blonde, not taking after either of his parents, but even the way he holds himself is reminiscent of the way his father had at his age.
Personality: Gage is a quiet, incredibly introverted person. It doesn’t seem like he’d manage it coming from the family of literal ‘Fuck You’s’ that he’s come from, but he’s got a good head on his shoulders and can actually keep his temper held pretty well. Then again, I suppose someone’s got to. It isn’t that he’s shy, he just has little to no interest in interacting with much of the outside world. He’s smart, too smart, and he always has been. He was too smart and too old for his own good even as a child, and it served to alienate him from his peers, and now, even in high school, he has a personal opinion that not only is everyone else a sack of immature pieces of shit, but they probably wouldn’t like him even if he liked them, so he just doesn’t bother much. He has one or two people that he tolerates being around, but even then there are times when he’ll disappear or not contact them for weeks at a time.
Special Talents: Like his father, Gage is extremely gifted at writing, though he’s not much of a poet. While his father has an impeccable talent for poetry, Gage’s skills lie in short stories. His talent for bringing a story to visceral life is something, however, that a rare few have been able to see. Even Cassie and Eli have only seen less than a handful of the things Gage has written.
Who they like better: At initial glance, Gage seems to have a deeper bond with his mother. He and Eli can’t seem to get along on anything, and the quiet, deliberate ways he reacts to his father.. involving mostly sarcasm and snark, seem to drive Eli up the wall. Only Cassie manages to see that it’s because the two are so alike it’s watching them look into a mirror. Cassidy favors Gage for that very reason, the fact that he’s so like his father. [Plus it’s fucking hilarious watching him piss Eli off to that extent with literally nothing more than a roll of his eyes.]
Who they take after more: Gage most certainly takes after his father, nearly every damned aspect from his talent to his personality to his sense of humor. Personal Head canon: While his bond with his mother is very strong, when alls said and done and when he needs to be understood, it’s Eli he goes to. He’s the youngest of two siblings, and the one with the most stable head on his shoulder. Though in his teenage years he’s bound to rebel.
