closed roleplay with @maniacollision
During his breaks from school, Xander liked to volunteer with the local Red Cross or any organization that helped those in need. Whether it be veterans or the homeless, it made him happy to see that he could help make someone’s day better with good company and hot food.
It was now winter break, a time with chilly winds and gloomy days. The perfect time to help warm someone’s day a little. Tonight, he had volunteered at the soup kitchen to help make dinner for those who were hungry. As Xander served the food, he noticed both new and familiar faces. He would make sure to talk to each of the new faces, making sure they were happy and cared for.
Of the new faces, there was a family with two young children and a young man who must have been a teenager or in his early 20s. Xander went to the family first, saying hello to them and bringing the children small candies. He made the children smile and laugh as he told them fairytales, and in turn the parents seemed happy that Xander was able to help the children forget a little about their empty tummies. After bidding the family a good meal and night, he made his way over to the young man.
Wearing a gentle and kind smile, he extended his hand out in greeting. His hair was tied back in a loose ponytail, and he wore a red long sleeve shirt, like all the other volunteers did, denim jeans, and sneakers.
“Good evening,” Xander said. “I haven’t seen you around here before. What’s your name?”
