Brief Backstory (content warning, some mention of bullying and violence)

-When he was a kid he loved lizards, and had many plush toys of them in his room

-he would chatter about them whenever someone gave him more than a few seconds to talk

-the day Caramel Apple got suspended was the day he took his favourite plush lizard to school for show and tell (I imagine he was around 5 at the time) and some bullies took the toy off him. Caramel beat them after getting the toy back, damaging Calvados’ and Caramel Apple’s relationship permanently

-even though Calvados went to therapy to try and process the incident, he no longer likes lizards, and actually panics if others try and get him back into them (he can handle seeing a lizard, but the moment people try and talk in-depth or give him a plushie or one to hold he freezes up)

-now he can’t stand to be around Caramel Apple when she shows signs of irritability (can handle small conversations about work or simple things, but dodges emotional conversations at all costs)

-after the incident, Calvados was given a handheld game console by his Aunt Scootaloo (she is in a relationship with Sweetie Belle) to help distract him

-videogames are his out from reality when things become too overwhelming, and he will happily talk about strategies to beat certain enemies

-he particularly likes turn-based combat in games, and it helps him come to terms with violence and injury (after the incident) he cannot handle realistic combat however, or excessive gore

-hangs out with Frosted Shake, occasionally Neapolitan, and other assorted “punk dudes” (aka unmade original characters)

-gained his cutie mark at an adult party where he sloshed some spirits into a glass and handed it to Frosted Shake. Even though it wasn’t as fancy as her typical drinks (she focuses more on cocktails) she still enjoyed the drink
