Ethan Throup - 25 - Father of Gilbert - "The day will come when you can't cover up what you've done." - RP account

it had long since been proven that mckenna could take care of herself, but there were also moments that she required a bit of help, and she didn’t have an easy time admitting that. with her arms full of different maintenance tools, considering she needed to fix some of the shelving in the stockroom, she hobbled over to the person she vaguely recognized as a coworker who must have been on break. motioning with her head towards the door, she raised her brows in anticipation. “well - can you help a girl out and open the door, or what?” the brunette asked with a huff, a small smirk slipped across her lips as she came across a bit more polite now.

Ethan chuckled lightly while talking to his son and babysitter on Facetime while he was on break. “Yeah, he should have a bit of homework, but I can help him with that once I’m home,” he mentioned towards the babysitter before looking up curiously once hearing the question. He chuckled softly and quickly waved to his phone. “Let him know that I’ll be home soon,” he hummed as he hung up before hurrying over to help and open the door for her. “Sorry about that, do you need any help with those other than just the door or are you okay?” he asked softly while holding it open.

Since they arrived, Haverly had been going out and exploring. Mainly to keep her mind occupied by all the beautiful scenery and history around her. She really liked exploring as she’s spent the last two years of her life doing just that. Though she likes to do things on her own, she decided it may be time for her to reach out and make some connections. “hey..” she walked up to someone that she didn’t really know very well “wanna go exploring with me?” she asked politely, a bright smile on her lips. 

[wtf-ethant-blog]

Ethan had already been exploring quite a bit with his son, letting Gilbert pick out some places for them to go to from the map they’d been looking at. It was something the father and son did quite often, whether it was still exploring back in Chicago or here. Once hearing the voice, he turned over and gave a gentle smile. “hey. we’d love to... did you have anywhere in mind that you were planning on heading?” he asked lightly with soft smile while turning fully towards her.

jacob pulled open the curtains covering the window, admiring the breathtaking view in front of him. “ this is unreal… “ he said to himself. “ i just can’t believe i’m here. its beautiful, i can’t wait to see more…” jacob smiled and looked at gilbert, “ what a lucky little dude, getting to see all of this so young. “ looking out of the window again, he exclaimed, “ the water is just… stunning ! “ as he sat on the bed, he checked his phone, sighing as he noted the time. “ ugh, it’s noon here but four am back home… the fu-freaking jet lag, “ jacob quickly changed his language, remembering the child in the room. “ oh well, i’ll adjust. “ he shrugged, looking at ethan, “ what are you most excited for ? “

ethan smiled softly while watching them pull open the curtains, humming softly while walking over. “it really is...” he whispered softly with a grin. “i know what you mean, this definitely isn’t somewhere i was expecting to go, but it’s great.” he chuckled before looking over at gilbert who was looking out the window with wide eyes. “he definitely is a lucky kid. i think he’s just as excited,” he hummed lightly before walking over to his bed and flopping down on it with a chuckle, listening to jacob changing his language and laughing in amusement. “yeah, jetlag is definitely gonna be something that i would’ve been happy without, but eh, guess we’ll get used to it,” he replied before giving a small shrug in response. “i really don’t know, i’m just looking forward to being able to explore a bit, you know? what about you?”

“Pokemon Go will live forever, unless they come out with a Harry Potter version. Same concept, just Harry Potter themed.” He looked over at the man’s phone, noticing how slow it was downloading. “If you don’t mind me asking, who’s Gilbert?”

“Oh, it definitely seems like it will. I guess they just keep adding new things to keep it interesting. That’s very true, it would be interesting to see how they’d set something like that up,” he noted with a nod towards him before chuckling. “Oh, he’s my son.”

“small doses is the key, i’d say. but i’m pretty shit at doing anything in moderation, so i’m not the best example.” sawyer admitted, chuckling as he was mostly shameless of his tendencies to overdo. “honestly that’s gotta be one of the most fun ways to learn the layout of the city, beats just aimlessly going for a run or getting stuck in traffic and having to de-tour your way around. both of which i’ve already done and found little joy in, so maybe i’ll take up your offer for the next pokemon go trip.” he said, a smile stretching across his lips as he held up his phone and jostled it playfully. “i’m, supposedly, an adult and i’m still getting used to it, so i’m sure he’ll need some time but it’s a cool place. helps me that wrigley field is a bit of a landmark.”

“yeah, exactly. it can definitely be difficult to make sure that gilbert is at least playing video games in moderation. i mean, i’m probably not the best example either at times, but i’m trying to be a bit better,” he mentioned, laughing lightly while shaking his head. “that’s what i mean, and if he’s enjoying it then that’s even better, good way to get us both more used to the area, that’s for sure. oh yeah, it definitely beats getting stuck in traffic. sounds like a plan to me then, pokemon go trip will have to happen at some point,” he agreed, smiling back in return while turning on his phone just to take a look at how the download was going. “honestly, that’s understandable. it’ll probably take me a bit to really learn the layout of everything, that’s for sure.”

Sierra let a small scream escape, thinking that the mosters found her. “Ethan! Sorry!” she smiled, a little more relieved, as she saw it was Ethan talking to her. “Horror movie marathon, not my best idea.”

Ethan’s eyes widened in response to the scream before giving her a soft smile and nodding towards her. “It’s okay. Oh, yeah, horror movie marathon’s usually don’t seem to be the best ideas,” he replied with a chuckle, shaking his head a little.

“it still surprises me that people care about pokemon today - i figured that shit would’ve died down after we were kids,” sawyer said with a huff, shrugging nonchalantly. “but it’s not the worst app to be sucked into downloading and playing, yeah? talking about it has me considering re-downloading it for when i go on a run or something. probably a good idea, actually.” the boy smirked, drumming his fingers against the smartphone in his hand. “how’s he liking the city?”

“yeah, i know what you mean. it still surprises me too sometimes, but i guess i can see why it can still be enjoyable in small doses,” he hummed, chuckling lightly. “that’s definitely true, at least it is something we have fun with when we do play it and it’ll probably help us both get more familiar with the area in a way. maybe you should tag along then,” he joked lightly before smiling softly. “he’s been liking it so far, it might take some more getting used to, but the move seems to be going well with him.”

[shhsierra]

Sierra really thought it was a good idea to watch almost all the horror movies she knew in one night, not really thinking how she would have to wake up early the next day. It was still dark when she left, pretty much terrified and hearing all kind of strange noises.  “Oh no.. They are coming!”

[wtf-ethant-blog]

Ethan hummed a little while walking along with his hands in his pockets, deciding to go out early for some groceries before raising a brow once hearing someone talking. He focused on Sierra and tilted his head a little in confusion. “Are you okay?” he asked softly once noticing that she seemed a bit freaked out.

“that game is amazing, at least its helping you get exercise too and its fun to find different type of pokemon.” he chuckled and looking over at the stranger with a small smile “I’m Paith. A pokemon expert.”

ethan smiled softly and chuckled lightly. “oh yeah, i did like the game, i played it probably too much when it first came out, but all the sudden my son wants to play again out of no where,” he replied, laughing lightly. “nice to meet you, paith the pokemon expert. i’m ethan.”

americano, café mocha, cappuccino

americano: do you find the ocean frightening?

“um, not quite frightening, more interesting in a way, there’s so much we don’t know about the ocean, you know?”

café mocha: what’s your favorite smell? 

“i honestly like the smell after a light rain, i don’t know what it is, but it just feels refreshing.”

cappuccino: would you ever go vegan?

“um, vegetarian i could do because i don’t eat much meat to begin with, but honestly i don’t think i could go vegan.”

“I swear, I thought the Pokemon Go thing was over with by now, but apparently Gilbert is obsessed with it again, so here I am, waiting for it to redownload so we can go walk around and explore once I’m off work,” Ethan mentioned with a light chuckle while shaking his head with a sigh as he sat in the break room, staring at his phone screen as it downloaded the app. “I don’t think I’m ever getting that app off my phone for good, to be honest...”

pressing her knuckles against the door, sutton rapped them against the wood before pulling back and waiting. when the door pulled open, she leaned her arm out with a wad of mail in the hand. “i think this may belong to you? not sure how it keeps getting to me but… yeah.”

[wtf-ethant-blog]

once hearing the knock on the door, he quirked a brow and made his way over, opening the door curiously. he listened to her words before glancing at the mail in her hand. “oh, i mean, it might be...” he replied, he had to admit, he’d been a bit too absentminded recently to really check his mailbox anyways. he took the wad of mail and checked over it before giving a light smile once noticing his name. “yeah, that would be mine then. thank you, by the way, i probably wouldn’t have noticed for a bit since i haven’t even been checking, to be honest,” he mentioned, chuckling lightly.

Hey, it’s Jules! So, I’ve been wanting to bring one of my other boys to the rp, so here’s Ethan! He’s kind of a hot-headed, sassy, overprotective mess who comes off as a loner at first since he keeps himself mostly lol. He does have a five year old son though named Gilbert, so he’s trying not to be as much of a mess and sort himself out to be a good role model for him. He is a very loving and caring person to those he gets closer to, but does find himself in a lot of fights, even though he hates getting in them. His fc is Jordan Witzigreuter btw lol.

There is some information about him in the bullet points under the read more, but the trigger warnings for suicide mention and death mention in the tags are for his backstory on his bio page just as a warning, so please do be careful. I’m honestly really excited to bring him here since he was my first character I brought to tumblr and I missed him, so I hope you all enjoy him! give this a like or hmu if you’d be interested in plotting with him! I can’t wait to start rping him here. :)

Former party boy turned single father, who is trying his best to sort himself out.

He moved to the fixer upper room with his son, both of them working together to fix it up and furnish it.

He is a big poetry fan.

Back in high school, he was very over protective of his little brother and ended up fighting with someone who bullied him, though he may have went too far and left the bully in critical condition... This has left him afraid of what he could actually do and want to avoid getting in any future fights, though with his short temper, it can be hard for him to really avoid them as much as he wants to. (he lowkey needs some good influence to just hold him back at times and chill him out lol)

He’s always used to protecting someone so it feels odd for him when he’s not doing so tbh.

Oh yeah, when he’s really stressed, he just starts speaking French. French being his first language.

He probably needs a filter because of his sarcastic ways at times lol. It seems to get him in a lot of trouble at times.

When it comes to his son he’s a complete softy.

He can come across as a loner and isn’t that talkative to most people when he first meets them, but once he considers someone his friend he becomes vv protective very quickly lol.

He’s Pansexual.

He has a notebook that he writes in a lot, mostly pretty private things sooo if that went missing he’d probably be even more of a wreck.
