APPEARANCE
The first feature on Xavier that you'd probably notice would be his pronounced, heart shaped jawline and crooked smile. His jaw is a bit off center but that doesn't take away from his looks. His nose is sharp and straight, and his eyebrows are narrow and delicate. His irises are both a honey brown. He tends to gaze at things and people as if they hold the universe within them, usually with a look of kindness held within his eyes, which happen to be almond shaped. His hair is a deep chocolate brown with gentle waves, and a slightly off center middle part. His hair length ends at about nose level. His lips are upturned and pointed, a scar above his top lip, and his bottom lip full. He has light freckling.
Xavier, as much as he dislikes it, has dainty hands that he uses a frequently when talking to accentuate his point. Although, even though he has feminine features doesn't mean that he has a weak muscular build as most would assume. He has built up a certain amount of lean muscle from swordplay and fencing, among a few other healthy hobbies he has, meaning he has strong calves, quadriceps, shoulders, and lower back strength. He stands with model posture and tends to keep a neutral look on his face.
Xavier has the habit of tugging on his hair when idle. He chews on his lip when concentrated, and tends to bounce on the balls of his feet when standing still to keep himself entertained, though only in situations where he is comfortable enough to do so. He acts professional around those he doesn't consider close.
He usually wears simpler clothes, preferably white, and derby shoes, always either brown or black. His aesthetic typically aligns with that of angelcore, and He always had a pen tucked somewhere on his person, whether it be behind his ears or in his shirt pocket.
ONLY FOR MODERN DAY RPS: he has a tattoo on his lower back that depicts thorns winding around the sun, and has a dove tattoo centered between his shoulder blades.
THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND (maybe):
His lip scar. Its got the thickness of about a penny, and almost touches his nose. It's quite an old scar, so it isn't bright pink, but it doesn't match his skin tone either, because the melanin never came back to where the scar is. (Scar from an incident with a dog when he was little.)
His dainty hands. I forget to write how much he uses them when talking, but rest assured he uses them alot, and his pinkies naturally stick upwards, as well as his index finger.
His soft voice. He isn't a very loud person, not at all, and only raises his voice when absolutely necessary. When his voice grows softer than usual, its a barely audible sound that you have to strain your ears to hear. -
PERSONALITY
Xavier tends to come off as simpleminded and impatient, when in reality he just is blunt and to the point. He often seems distracted, and that's because he is. He is almost always dreaming of other places, and always in his head. He adores fairytales and reads books as if it were a necessity to survive, such as breathing or drinking water. When he is troubled, he turns to writing poetry or reading books. It is instinctual for him.
He is very observant, and tends to get caught up in the details of life rather than taking a step back and looking at the big picture.
Like the poet he is, he always manages to focus on the mundane facts of life instead of weeping over the harsh realities of the world. He if he finds something you've said interesting or deeper than face value, he will write it down on the nearest piece of paper available to him-or on his skin if paper isn't available. He is a bit forgetful, though, and tends to put off writing things down, and as a consequence ends up forgetting something for the time being, before waking up at three AM to write a poem based off of those few words he managed to remember in the middle of the night.
When you get closer to Xavier, he is less introverted and tends to show his goofier side. He doesn't necessarily have any new quirks that you discover when you get closer to him, besides the fact that he becomes more brutally honest and open about how he feels about a subject. When talking to Xavier as a newfound friend, you may thing that he is being more emotional, but the truth is that he simply sheds his protective layer. He is the type to refuse to cry in front of strangers, but bawl his eyes out over his love life with a brand new friend. He is guided by his intuition, and thinks with his heart before his head.
He has a few little mannerisms that one might notice when paying attention though, such as keeping his eyes on his favorite person in the room or watching his feet as he walks- or, the exact opposite, looking straight up into the sky, night or day.
He more often than not is idealistic, and will suggest things that are completely impossible or unrealistic. "Say, what if I could swim in my bowl of cereal?" or, "Wouldn't it be fun to run away?", and so on. He has damaged a lot of his relationships because of his strange way of coping with not wanting reality to be, well, reality.
