Name: Joschka 'Josh' Sebastian Schreiber
Gender: male
Sexual orientation: Queer/questionning
Joschka doesn't like labels much in the first place. On the top of that, he also doesn't know where he specifically stands on the spectrum which makes it pretty hard for him to put a word to it in the first place.
Age: 16
Height: 5''11 (180 cm/1,80 m)
Weight in pounds: 140 lbs (63,5 kg)
Description:
One could definitely describe Joschka as a scrawny 5"11 German-born boy with olive skin that seems to glow under the sun due to how pale he naturally is, seemingly unable to tan through natural means.
c
His nimble fingers are elongated and bony, followed by nails he enjoys painting a rich black colour on a few occasions, from time to time.
.
He has disheveled shaggy brown hair that curls, wearing them like someone that just got out of bed in a rush without taking the time to look presentable would. The truth is that he just doesn't care enough to look such a way much when it comes to that specific point. Due to poliosis, he has a very distinctive white forelock.
.
Joschka's eyes are a very light and icy shade of blue that seems to shine with the glint a wild madman's eyes would, giving him a really distant and unsympathetic glare. They can, however, express a lot of emotions that he can struggle to put into into words and he would probably look less cold if he stopped squinting them so much all the time, trying to focus on very specific things around him.
.
Since he's German and doesn't speak a lot, he has a very noticeable accent and his "r" sound harsher than they should. However, he still doesn't sound really intimidating, his voice being soft and words too few to truly be threatening
.
This lanky teenage boy tends to usually wear upscale and cotton fabrics with minimal patterns. The brunette is also inclined to wear loose clothes which he deems more comortable. On the top of that, Josh really appreciates wearing earrings that glint and simple shiny rings.
Personality:
Joschka tends to use gestures to communicate instead of words, like pointing at objects he desires instead of saying it. The brunette has also taken a habit of collecting shiny objects he happens to find and it takes a lot of self-control from his part to not take something that belongs to another individual such as jewels, especially earrings and rocks.
.
He seems to be excessively good at remembering who has been nice to him through his life and will often try to find a way to pay their kindness back.
.
As a gestural individual, he has always been better at showing than telling, offering shiny objects to people he likes and being clingy to the people he gets attached to, offering small touches and wanting to hold hands in a platonic way.
.
In conjunction to his impressive recollection of faces and his habit to pay kindness back, Josh also holds grudges. The brunette has indeed shown himself to easily remember people who did him good but he's even better at remembering the ones that did him wrong. Although he's not an asshole and won't go out of his way to make anyone's life a living hell. Yet, he won't hesitate to make sure you know he doesn't like you, wether it is from avoiding or intensively glaring at you with his madman eyes.
.
This boy isn't a very social person in the first place even though he feels fine hanging with people or stand in a crowd. Josh likes to do his own thing in a corner better but would probably not mind a bit of company from time to time either. He is not exactly a lone wolf but won't go out of his way to seek out companionship. He just shy with people one could say, having a hard time understanding them or their intentions and striking a conversation seems like a kind of difficult thing to do.
.
He also barely or dare I say unable to show empathy. It's not in a mean way, he just has a really hard time putting himself in someone's shoes. Joschka also lacks of remorse when he does something that negatively affects people around him and has a tendency to break and burn things.
.
The brunette likes music a lot, open to every and any genre but with a certain favoritism directed toward classical and acoustic songs. He himself likes playing and singing too but also genuinely enjoy hearing others perform their own things and won't hesitate to listen to them.
.
Additionally, Joschka also likes to hide in small spots for fun. It's just a little thing that makes him feel safe and can calm his nerves.
He's soft-spoken, never raising his voice, always trying to not leave too much of a bad impression and constantly trying to avoid useless conflicts as much as he can. He's alone one of those that tries to go with the flow, unable to lead a crowd or take any leading positions.
.
Yelling doesn't exactly terrify him but it does raise something close to a flight or fight response in his core. It can make him lash out unpredictabably with the will to defend himself and hurt whoever he feels threatened by. However, he adjusts quickly to loud noises even if the brunette can clearly express some sort of disdain and discomfort to such things.
.
Due to being raised by overachievers and calculating people, he shows interests for many things, making it easy for the German boy to have a lot of general knowledge and support a lot of pressure without cracking. However, Joschka also learned from them how to get what you desire by lying and not playing fair. He doesn't indulge in that kind of behaviour that often but will do so if the gain is worth it without a doubt.
