“i overhead some of the kids talking the other day, and one of them asked the others: who would win in a fight, a shark or a bear?” spencer talks as she walks towards the bench to grab her jacket after a long work out. “i only have one question – well, i have many questions – and that’s how did they get the shark on land to fight the bear?”
At the thought, Frank couldn’t help but to picture a shark and a bear fighting. And quite honestly? It was interesting to watch, and entertaining. But he had to erase that picture to try and focus on what she was saying. “Who said they got the shark on land? Maybe they got the bear in water. Which seems, about just as realistic. Or maybe they have a mutant gene too. Maybe that shark can live on land, or that bear has gills. Possibilities are endless.”
Nell wasn’t really one to sit where she was supposed to sit, or how she was supposed to sit for that matter. So, instead of sitting in a chair, Nell was sitting on the ground, back against the wall, legs stretched out across the sidewalk, eating potato chips. When she felt someone coming closed, Nell didn’t care whether they were just walking by or ready to ask her for a couple of chips. “If I hit myself on my arm and it hurts —” she began, still chewing, “— am I weak or am I strong?” Nell was expecting the person to just look at her in the weirdest of ways. “I’m asking the real questions here.”
Not doing much, as usual, Frank was just wandering around until he could find anything better to do, fingers playing with a coin. Honestly, at this point, anything would be more interesting than doing nothing, and he was almost grateful when he heard the voice. Although quickly, he raised his eyebrows in her direction. “I’d say it makes you stupid. Why would you even hit yourself?” He wasn’t really in a position to judge, but somehow, that was something he couldn’t turn off.
carson wiped the sweat from his brow with his sleeve, leaning against his shovel. while he could do most things using his powers, carson liked doing things by hand from time to time. a grin stretched across his lips as he admired his handiwork. hearing a noise behind him startled him, causing him to drop the shovel and almost fall to the ground, before he finally regained his footing. “crikey, you startled me, nevermind, what brings you to this lovely farm?”
His hands were deeply shoved in the pockets of his coat as he approached the other one. Honestly, Frank had no idea what he was doing there. He didn’t even know where exactly he was. “Careful, tiny one. You don’t wanna fall in that dirt.” He commented, although did not make any apparent move to help him in case he really was about to fall. “Well, it certainly wasn’t the smell.”

I heard the THIRTY-EIGHT YEAR OLD is on the island because of HIS CAPTURE 11 YEARS AGO. we are excited to see how they use IMMORTALITY around the island, they are sure to be useful in the future. i’ve heard rumors going around that they’re arrogant & egotistical, as well as honest & confident. in due time, we’re bound to unravel the truth. will GRIM REAPER survive the island? ╳ CHARACTER AESTHETIC: smoking gun, glittering stickers, wearing black on black, messy room messy head, knives in every pocket, “sarcasm is my defence”, running from responsibilities.
Quick bullet point backstory:
So this boy was born as an only child in the beautiful province of Québec(I am 100% biased). Rather normal family except they were poor and his dad couldn’t keep a job.
So he stayed in Gatineau for 6 years, which is the place in lived in the longest. Then they moved to Toronto, and just moved around a lot after that. They finally crossed the border to the States when he was around 12.
So he was picked on a lot during school because they were poor and he was always wearing worn out clothes. But instead of just taking the beating, he’d fight back. He fought back literally all his life that’s what he does best.
After graduating, he didn’t go to college, just took on a few jobs. And kept on kicking asses. He became a bouncer when he turned 21, and he kinda abused the power? He did beat up a few guys while on the job(for multiple legitimate reasons, but there were non violent ways to deal with them).
That got him some attention, and someone approached him for a “job”. Which he accepted. At that time, it was just beating up people for money, but then it started escalating until it was mUCH WORSE.
Basically, before getting caught, Frank was a mercenary and people just hired him for any job they want, from beatings to murders, going by stealing and any other crime.
He also didn’t know yet about his mutant ability, it only happened a little later. He was actually on a job, and he felt the bullet. Honestly, he thought that was the end. But then few hours later, he was still lying on the ground, very much alive. He was confused, but after a few experiments, he concluded he had some sort of immortality power.
Which caught the attention of the authorities. It took them some time, but after an elaborate plan, they did catch him and sent him to the island. But that was like, a year before the mutants took over, so he doesn’t have much experience with what they used to do there.
He’s also such an ass, he really doesn’t care about helping others unless he can benefit from it? So he didn’t take a job, although he does help when he wants, and where he can help. He’s a surprisingly good cook so it often revolves around food, or guarding people.

ISLAND RELATED QUESTIONS:
Your muse had the chance to grab a single item before being snatched up by FBI, what was it? What significance does it have to your muse?
All he got was a picture of his parents. After graduating high school, he lost track of them, and hasn’t seen them since he was 18. But he had so many questions for them, mostly after discovering about his ability, and now part of him knows he’ll never see them again, and learn the truth.
If your muse was able to write a letter to one person back on the mainland, who would it be and why?
Definitely his mom or his dad. Even if it’s been 20 years since he’s seen them, they’re the only people that really matter to him, and he’d want them to know what happened to him, and how he’s doing.
Them or a client, and just tell them “Sorry, I’ll be late.” Because he’s an asshole and he is definitely late by now.
What’s a day in the life of your muse like?
Honestly? Just wake up whenever, wander around, be arrogant with most, although sometimes he helps, and try to figure out a way off this island because he doesn’t feel like he can stay there much longer. Then end the day in a bar with a few beers.
If your muse had a moment to sit down and talk with someone that was anti mutant what would they say?
I don’t think he would talk. He’d just threaten them to stop harrassing mutants, or he’ll find them and make them pay.
What mutant abilities outside of their own intrigue them the most? Are there any they’d fear if they came across them?
Power negation both fascinates and scares him. For now, he is not ready to die, so having someone negate his power is very threatening to him since he’s been so careless due to his immortality. But at the same time, he knows he will need someone with that power if he feels it’s time for him to go one day.
WANTED PLOTS / CONNECTIONS
Child: would be 18-19 now, and definitely an accident. Frank probably doesn’t even know he has a child, and left before the girl told him she was pregnant. Now I can see it two ways; either the child started digging up information about their father and tried to find him, or they ended up with him on the island and they are unaware of their relationship, but are learning slowly about it.
Ex: I’m thinking someone he dated on the island for some time, in an attempt to better himself and become a new man, but he realized he couldn’t do it? Or maybe he realized he could do it and the change scared him.
Parent: either mom or dad or both. Honestly I was writing his bullet point info and I was thinking: how cool would it be if his parents showed up one day? And then he can learn why he has the mutant gene and everything?
Partner in crime: someone that could be considered his best friend? Basically just someone he does trust, and always brings on his adventures or illegal activities. Also could be someone he met on the island, or someone he knew before the island.
