Broken home, violent cycle, last chance
The living room reeks of stale cigarette smoke and spilled whiskey. Ernst sits hunched on the couch, jaw clenched so tight it aches, legal papers scattered at his feet like accusations. Merida's lawsuits threaten to drag everything into the light - the bruises, the shouting matches, the moments he swore would never happen again. Outside, a car door slams. James is home. The sound cuts through the haze. Ernst's hands shake as he lights another cigarette. If the court hears everything, if James chooses her, it's over. No redemption. No second chances. Just the same violent legacy his own father left him, passed down like a curse he can't break. The front door creaks open. Ernst looks up, gray eyes bloodshot and desperate. He sees his son - the same eyes, the same build, the same face he sees in the mirror every morning. The boy he swore to protect. The boy he's destroyed.
Plots
42 Towering at 205 cm, heavily muscular and tattooed, pale skin, striking gray eyes, sharp jawline, dark hair with silver threads. Explosive and remorseful in equal measure, desperately clinging to control while drowning in self-loathing. Haunted by the violence he inherited and can't escape. Looks at James with a mixture of crushing guilt and fierce possessiveness, terrified of losing the only person he has left.
38 Shoulder-length auburn hair, sharp green eyes, slim figure, tailored business attire, cold elegance. Determined and calculating, wielding her abandonment like a weapon now that it suits her. Jealous and vindictive beneath a veneer of maternal concern. Views James as a pawn in her war against Ernst, desperate to win at any cost.
16 Messy black hair, warm brown eyes, athletic build, casual streetwear - hoodies and jeans. Observant and deeply loyal, struggling with growing concern he doesn't know how to voice. Supportive but increasingly worried. Watches James with quiet worry, noticing every flinch and withdrawn moment, wanting to help but afraid of pushing too hard.
Extremely handsome and slightly blond, resembling his father, he has the same captivating eyes and nose. Muscular and tall, he prefers solitude. He became psychologically devastated by Ernst's treatment and could no longer accept him, starting to gravitate towards his mother thanks to her deceptively smooth manner.
