Image

Height:
6'2"

Weight:
150 lbs

Appearance:
Ethan is a rather tall and thin man, not too muscular but not scrawny either. His brown hair falls in his chocolate brown eyes often, but he doesn't mind it. He is always wearing his glasses, preferring them over contacts. He often dresses in jeans and an untucked dress shirt with a suit jacket. Either that or a plaid button up shirt with a tee-shirt under it. He wears shoes like converse or keds all the time as well.

Personality:
Ethan is a fairly fun guy, laughing and joking whenever he can. During class he's not serious unless the scene in whatever play or musical called for it. He's a bit on the odd side, and is both loved and made fun of by the students in the school. Really, he's kind of like a big kid himself, being fresh out of school himself. He's friendly and kind and pretty goofy around all the students, and usually makes a lasting impression. He also tends to be very sarcastic and teases the students a lot.
However, there is a more serious and thoughtful side to him. He just tries not to show it to all his students, because he thinks it would bore them. He is quite intelligent and deep, his emotions resonating inside him easily. It's why it's easy for him to act. All his emotions are just under the surface, waiting for something to happen and imbalance them. He deeply cares for everyone and loves helping others. He is a hopeless romantic, yearning to hold another man in his arms.

Likes:
≈Acting
≈Music
≈Wolves
≈Romance
≈Helping others

Dislikes:
~Bullies
~Homophobes
~Animal abuse
~Birds
~Dubstep

Fears:
×His students finding out he's gay.
×Birds
×Being alone his whole life.

History:
Ethan had a fairly normal childhood. Middle class family, nothing of major consequence happening in his early childhood. However, when he turned 16, he came out to his parents. These being two very devoutly Catholic were obviously appalled at this. They disowned him and forced him out onto the street, only kind enough to give him some money to pay for 1 week of food. He managed to rent a room from someone for a nice amount, get a job, and still finish school and get to college on mostly scholarships. He's gotten a place of his own since then, an okay place that he can afford on a teacher's pay.

Perverted?:
Ethan tends to be a bit more conservative, though he will make some dirty jokes or chuckle at something that could have a double meaning.

So begins...

Ash chuckled at Weylin. He could be such a silly little duck sometimes. But what could she say, she loved the kid. He made the day bright and fun. "Nah, I don't think we could find a gay boy anywhere near how you are. And if we do, then the apocalypse is coming." She said with another laugh and continued walking with her friends to their next class. Theatre. The class taught by none other than Mr. Radley. Ash knew very well that Weylin had a huge gay crush on him. But she never really said anything about it. She just silently shook her head with a slight grin as he worried over the teacher. "Dude, chill out. Radley is there every other day. What would make today any different?" Ash rolled her eyes slightly and took her usual seat next to Weylin, leaning back and waiting for their teacher.

Speaking of the handsome devil, I walks Ethan Radley, kindly known as the high school's theatre teacher. He wore his usual fashionable outfit as he walked confidently into the classroom, dramatically stopping at the front of the room. With a flourish of his hand, tilting his head upward slightly, he spoke in a French accent. "I... have arrived." He dropped the act and chuckled slightly, his thumbs hooking into his pockets as he leaned against his desk. He looked around the room. Seemed they had a bit of time. His eyes rested on Weylin, his favorite student.

He knew he shouldn't have favorite students, but he couldn't help himself. Wey-Wey was just so adorable. There was no denying he was gay either. And he wore that with pride. Something Ethan respected. He found himself smiling warmly at Weylin and strode easily over to his desk, holding his hand up for a high-five. "Hey there Wey-Wey. How's the school year treating ya?" He asked casually, trying g to start some slight conversation before class started. Meanwhile, Ash pretended not to pay attention, but she listened very closely, holding back a laugh.

Ash was watching out of the corner of her eye and coughed to cover up a laugh, her lips twitching from holding back a smile. She ones Weylin probably knew she was listening and watching, and probably hated it but she just couldn't help it. Knowing what use knew, it was adorable to watch. Ethan thought it was quite adorable as well. The way this boy looked so delicate, like he needed someone to protect him. Ethan had vowed long ago when he first met Weylin that he would do whatever he could as a teacher to protect this boy. Really, that only included bullying, but he would do it. The way the boy blushed and looked up at him... It sent a sort of pang into his heart. A student looking at him this way... and no one else would. He feared he was destined to be alone.

A look passed through his eyes that betrayed his emotions, showing the longing to hold someone and be their forever. But Ethan merely smiled at the young boy. It wasn't like he could be Weylin's forever, that was inappropriate. But he could he the best teacher for him. "Of course this class is your favorite. Everyone gets to pretend they're someone they aren't." Ethan said in a pleasant voice, chuckling slightly. When asked if they would do anything fun this year, he feigned shock and hurt, gasping and holding his hand to his heart. "Don't we always do something fun?" His eyes filled with pseudo tears. "Or have I failed as a teacher again?" He dramatically held the back of his hand to his forehead.

Ethan laughed loudly, his head tilting back slightly, at the display Weylin put on. Afterwards he clapped his hands together as the boy stood. "Bravo, Weylin, bravo. You know, you remind me a lot of myself when I was younger." The grin the teacher had on his face was slightly crooked, and the look in his eyes beamed pride. This boy could truly act. He could make it farther than Ethan had. Weylin had a true chance in the acting career. And Ethan was helping him get there. He practically burst with joy at this discovery. When he heard the rest of what Weylin had to say, his expression softened and he looked at his students with gratitude. "Thank you, Weylin. It's very kind of you to say so."

Ethan went back behind his desk as the hell had rung and he needed to get his stuff together, and Ash turned to Weylin. "Hey, don't look so down. You're obviously his favorite. Do you ever see him talking to anyone else in this class?" She said, trying to get her friend to cheer up at least a little bit. She lightly punched his shoulder. "If you don't cheer up, I'll throw you to my crowd of guys. Wait, you might like that." Ash chuckled a bit, hoping to lift the mood with her jokes.

Ash had chuckled lightly but didn't have any time to say anything else, because Ethan had started his class with a flourish and kept the crowd's attention. He made sure to make each lesson exciring and hands on so as to get more and more students every year. And every student who had him talked the class up to the new kids coming into high school, so every year he was sure to get fresh meat. This was why he loved his job. He touched the lives of so many children and got them to explore their creative side in a healthy way. That was his motivation, that's why he stayed as a teacher even if the pay wasn't great and he had to take up another job in the summer. This was his true calling.

As the bell sounded for the end of class, he stopped in front of Weylin's desk. "Hey, could I talk to you real quick? I'll wrote you a pass to your next class unless there's something important...?" Ethan had a few questions he needed to ask Weylin, but he didn't want to pull him out of anything important. Ash waggled her eyebrows at Wry, winked, and made her way to her next class laughing.

Ethan watched the show of emotions roll across the younger teen's face, and he felt a bit guilt. His eyes softened toward Weylin a bit and he placed a flaming hand on his shoulder. "Hey, calm down," he said in a soothing and soft voice. "No one is in trouble here. C'mon, let's go to my desk, eh? I plan on making this conversation last a bit." He smiled reassuringly and took his hand off Weylin's shoulder, then walked to his desk and sat in his chair. He crossed his legs and looked Weylin in the eyes. "First and foremost; what is it you plan on going to college for? What is it you want to major in?" Ethan hoped dearly that it would be theatre, acting. Weylin had a real chance to make it, and Ethan knew that. He saw the potential and the talent just blossoming in this child. What else he saw, well, that he'd have to keep to himself.

He saw a young boy, obviously gay like himself, with an apparent infatuation with him. Now, Ethan didn't know if this was simply a role model infatuation or like you would view a protector, or if he wished to persue something with Ethan. But Ethan knew how he felt. He felt protective over this young boy, possessive even. Only slightly so, but still. There had been plenty of time where his imagination had wandered to romantic scenes, and his partner had turned out to be Weylin. Of course, whenever he realized this he banished such thoughts. But they kept coming back. And each time became more frequent and the scene more elaborate. But Ethan knew that if he actually tried any of this he would lose his job, get arrested, and have nothing. So he settled for seeing him in class. But knowing he would soon graduate... it filled Ethan with sadness. Some of that sadness seeped into his eyes now.

Meanwhile, Cole was in his classroom, waiting for class to begin and have everyone in their seats. He knew he'd be waiting a bit for them to calm down, but hey, they were young! Let them socialize with everyone!
