edwin chen for @wistfulsim‘s pickett
quick learner // perfectionist, bookworm, goofball
it’s long.......soRRy
pov: u broke one of ur legs bc you’re clumsy af....u go to the hospital to get treated....u hear the nurse call ur name....u enter into the doctor’s office,,..and u see this mans greeting u, “good afternoon (y/n), what may i help you with today?”
surprise!! he’s the hot doctor cliche!!! ok anyways..
edwin always came from a family of success; his grandfather’s a highly regarded professor in academia while his parents worked for the biggest law firm in the country.
since he was little, edwin constantly felt the need to live up to his family’s high expectations of him. he always had to score the highest grades, be well-read, the best speaker in the debate team, have a balanced lifestyle, and blah blah
now that edwin has a pretty steady (and stressful)(hence the greying hair lmao) career as a doctor, his family has been bugging him less, but.....
he realizes that he’s a big mess. he doesn’t know how to appreciate life!!!
if he reads, he reads medical journals. if he plays the piano, it’s to practice so he doesn’t get rusty. if he runs, it’s so that his stamina is high enough to rush to emergency ward in time. u get my drift,,
ever since his childhood, he has rarely let himself do things for just...pure enjoyment. and seeing the ad for pickett’s bc inspired him tbh. he’s like who is this soft, carefree ass looking girl....i aspire to b as free as her..
his personal goal rn: he wants to learn how to appreciate the smol things in life, and if love comes in the picture, he would want to embrace it wholeheartedly too!
some quick facts!
writes poetry( sometimes on paper napkins and paper cups bc hes stuck at the hospital u kno..and when inspiration hits, it hits!!)
adores his grandma. the most understanding and loving family member to him! he wants to make her proud the most
cries easily, love-hates sad endings
he listens to lana del rey and fleetwood mac if he has any time at all to listen to music (i stan..)
as much as he’s a gr8 talker and has the wittiest jokes, he sucks at flirting. he just has little experience, so good luck to him lmao!!!
