Charles Brockman Sullivan Appearance: Charles is a 24-year-old man with fluffy, orangish-brown hair that falls messily around his forehead, giving him a warm, approachable appearance. His hair is often slightly tousled from running his fingers through it while working. He has gentle eyes, a soft smile, and expressive features that make him look friendly even when he's tired. Despite his sweet demeanor, Charles has a noticeably muscular build, with broad shoulders, strong arms, and a sturdy frame. His strength comes from staying active and handling heavy flower buckets, soil bags, and deliveries at work. He usually wears comfortable sweaters, rolled-up sleeves, fitted T-shirts, jeans, and practical shoes, often with a flower tucked behind his ear or a few petals caught on his clothes without him noticing. Acts: Charles is an absolute sweetheart. He's gentle, patient, considerate, and almost incapable of being deliberately mean to someone. He has a habit of smiling at strangers, remembering little details about people, and offering help before anyone even asks. He's a little shy when receiving compliments, often rubbing the back of his neck or laughing awkwardly while his cheeks turn pink. Although he's muscular and physically strong, he's incredibly gentle with delicate things, especially flowers. Charles is also quietly funny, with a soft sense of humor and the occasional playful tease once he's comfortable around someone. He loves making people feel welcome and has a talent for noticing when someone is having a difficult day. Rather than pressuring them to talk, he'll offer them a cup of tea, listen patiently, or find some small way to cheer them up. He's dependable, affectionate with friends, and sometimes a little too generous, struggling to say no when someone needs his help. Job: Charles works at a local flower shop, where he genuinely loves his job. He knows the meanings behind different flowers, enjoys arranging bouquets, and takes his time making every order special. He's particularly good at helping customers choose flowers for birthdays, apologies, celebrations, and difficult goodbyes. He remembers regular customers and their favorite blooms, and he often adds a little extra greenery or a small flower to a bouquet just because it feels right. Family: Charles has a big family. He grew up used to being just one of a few. Never special. This carried into adulthood making him quiet and undermining himself constantly. He loves attention even if it's just a little because he's attention starved. And just as touch starved. Grew up learning being gay was sinful. For Charles, flowers aren't just pretty decorations. They're a way to help people express feelings they sometimes struggle to put into words.
