Getting on a bit 👨‍🦳
Many thanks for the #Birthday Wishes 🥳🎉
To celebrate I’ve decided to grease myself up and throw pebbles at waves🌊
#InstaTartÂ
—the appointment he had been waiting for, for a long time, at the base did not go as planned; leaving him irritated. he had been on leave for a tad more than ten months now and he had been hoping that this would end soon, however, re-examination and check-ups showed that the injury to his shoulder would still not allow him to get back into action; it definitely did not help that he was pushing it by not laying off the extensive, heavy training. Nicholas was a man of action, he had never stayed back in the states for such an extensive period of time before, so he had moved to Spring Hill, knowing it would have driven him crazy to remain in a familiar environment on top of everything else.
he drove down the relatively empty streets, tossing his phone on the passenger seat after receiving a text inquiring about the verdict of his appointment, brewing inside for most of his pals got to be sent yet on another mission whilst he stayed behind. however, his train of thought was interrupted when a luxury black car cut off in front of him. now, he was a patient man, but being caught off was one of his pet peeves. that along with his already agitated mood only angered him more. without missing a second, he accelerated, passing the vehicle and cutting right in front of them. "you fucking don't..." he mumbled. with his Range Rover parked diagonally along the street, hence blocking the other driver and causing them to stop either they liked it or not, he got out.
"what the fuck, mate?" he called out to them, making his way to the other diver's window, he tapped on it, making a conscious effort to not use too much strength (but also to appear a bit more civilized than he felt). standing at nearly 6'3'' and an athletic physique, he could be quite intimidating. "open up." he was ready to freaking punch them in the face, but really tried to contain the anger for after he could listen to whatever bullshit excuse they could make up.
if you need someone who is loyal, brave, and will literally get in harm’s way to protect someone else, Nic is definitely that guy. fiercely courageous and selfless when it comes to standing up for someone or assisting out even a total stranger. he has a very strong sense of duty and is a firm believer that he ought to aid those in need and the weak, especially since he is capable of doing that. but, do not mistake his willingness to help out for friendliness; Nicholas is a very private and closed off guy, doesn’t make friends easily, and doesn’t open up. he is very patient but gets irritated with stupidity very easily. he is somewhat sarcastic and can be a jerk, too. there is an air about him that might be mistaken for arrogance, but it is only because he knows what he is capable of that he might come off this way.Â

tw: mentions of abuse, alcoholism, infidelity
—other triggers may apply—
Nicholas was born in a military family, his grandfather having been in the service for his entire life
his mother and father separated when he was about four years old after Leon (his father) accidentally found out that he is not the actual father
he grew up with Leon and his older brother, Evan, though spent one too many days at his grandmother’s house to avoid conflict with Leon
his relationship with Leon consists mainly by being violent towards one another, especially since he was always viewed as the bastard son
despite the fact that Evan was his biological son, Leon abused both of them. Nicholas would get in trouble a lot more so that Evan could be spared
he was a boy scout until his eleventh year of age
he has not seen his mother since she left Leon when the two separated
Nicholas met his biological father when he was fourteen, accidentally, and though the two get along he didn’t grow too close to the man
his biological father is a billionaire from France, though Nicholas is very much American and doesn’t acknowledge his French genes, not really
Philip, his biological father, has made several attempts to offer financial aid (even when not needed), buy him houses or cars, but being a proud lil shit he accepts none of it
nobody knows that Leon isn’t his biological father except for Evan
Leon remarried when he was nine, thus Nicholas has a younger sister
he joined the SEALs at the age of seventeen
he has served in SEAL Team three and currently in Seal Team Six, formerly known as DEVGRU
he spent as much time abroad as he could, always being the first guy to want to go back on tour even before he would set foot at the states
he has gone on a total of five tours and countless missions
he has had a bounty put on his head, that is still active
gotten a Medal of Honor at the age of twenty eight
Nicholas drives both a motorcycle and cars, but his favorite will always be his Range Rover, a Black Vogue limited edition model; his friends and he affectionately referred to as The Beast
he is a country music kind of guy but likes some rock classics, too
knows his way around about every single weapon that there is, with a particular preference to rifles and sniper rifles
always wants in when there is action, to observe or wait ain’t his thing
he is always carrying with him a 12″ military tactical knife that was gifted to him by his grandfather
he came to Spring Hill after being put on leave due to an accident and wanting to get away from a situation with his ex-girlfriend
