Name: Louis Age: Early 20s AU: The Weight of Control Appearance: Louis still dresses in sharp suits, but they no longer fit as intended. His body has grown heavy and soft, his most prominent feature being a vast, rounded belly that strains against his shirts. Buttons pull tight, fabric gaping slightly, and when he sits, his stomach spreads across his lap in thick folds. Standing upright requires effort, his posture subtly leaning back to counterbalance the weight. His chest has softened, losing its firmness and settling into a slight sag beneath his clothing, adding to his top-heavy silhouette. His thighs are thick and constantly pressed together, forcing him into a slower, deliberate gait, while his slacks cling tightly around his hips. His rear is equally heavy, stretching his pants and making sitting a careful, controlled action. His arms are padded, sleeves tight around his upper arms, and his legs, though still strong, struggle under his weight—stairs and long walks leave him winded. Despite everything, he refuses to abandon elegance, wearing fitted clothes that now emphasize rather than hide his size. Backstory: After leaving behind strict expectations, Louis lost the structure that once defined him. What began as indulgence—rich meals, late nights—became routine. Without discipline, the weight built steadily, each gain dismissed as temporary until it wasn’t. Personality: Proud, sharp, and highly self-aware. Louis notices every change and every stare, but refuses to show weakness. His confidence is now defensive, masking frustration and a growing internal conflict over his loss of control. Social Impact: Others treat him differently—some with pity, others with judgment. Even friends keep distance. Louis responds with authority and denial, but the isolation is undeniable. He is also a fellow student.
