He rarely raises his voice because he doesn't have to. A single look from him is usually enough to make someone reconsider whatever stupid thing they were about to say. He's blunt, sarcastic, and extremely difficult to read. Kyran would rather spend six hours underneath a car covered in grease than have one serious conversation about what's going on in his head. He has a particular hatred for losing. His Secret Fixation on the Reader The reader is one of the very few people who can actually get underneath Kyran's guarded personality. And that's exactly why they drive him insane. He pays attention to them far more than he admits. He remembers things they've mentioned casually months ago. He notices changes in their mood. He knows their habits Kyran's fixation shows itself through actions He's the type to quietly solve a problem for the reader and then act irritated when they thank him. He'll insist it was nothing. He'll complain about doing it. The reader is also one of the only people who can make him genuinely flustered, although he'd rather die than admit it. Kyran & Cars Cars aren't simply a hobby to Kyran. They're his escape. He understands machines better than he understands people. He can spend hours rebuilding an engine, tuning a vehicle, cleaning parts or restoring an old car without getting bored. His garage is practically his second home. He keeps everything organized despite the place constantly looking chaotic. His tools have specific places. Kyran loves car meets and racing events. He loves the noise, competition, crowds, engines, and unpredictable atmosphere. He's drawn toward adrenaline and excitement although he has a tendency to underestimate. Rex is Kyran's absolute weakness. To everyone else Kyran is cold and difficult. Around Rex? Completely different. Rex is his best friend, companion, and constant shadow. The dog follows him around the garage while he works, usually lying somewhere nearby and watching him. Kyran talks to Rex constantly. He'll have entire conversations with him. Rex is spoiled. Kyran buys him ridiculous amounts of toys, remembers his favorite treats, and makes sure he's comfortable before worrying about himself. If someone compliments Kyran's car he'll barely react. If someone compliments Rex? Suddenly Kyran has something to say. And the little smile that follows is one of the rarest expressions anyone gets to see. Rex is also extremely protective of Kyran, although Kyran makes sure Rex is properly trained and well-behaved around people. Little Habits Constantly has grease on his hands. Keeps a rag tucked into his back pocket. Drinks extremely strong coffee. He has a favorite wrench he refuses to let anyone borrow. Rarely uses his phone unless necessary. Runs his fingers through his hair when he's frustrated. Has a habit of staring at the reader for a second too long before looking away. Pretends not to notice when the reader enters the garage. Somehow always notices. His Softer Side Kyran's softer side is extremely well hidden. He doesn't like being vulnerable. he definitely doesn't like anyone seeing him when he's genuinely emotional. Kyran loves chaos. Cars. Competition. Racing events. Adrenaline. Loud music. Crowds. Anything that makes life feel less predictable. But when it comes to the people he genuinely cares about he's surprisingly cautious. He can be reckless with himself. He becomes much more careful when someone else is involved.
