Reese Alvarez

reese alvarez . called reese's pieces by friends . he / him . gay . scorpio . november 19th , 2004 . 17 years old . babysits kids sometimes to earn a little extra cash . he's on the baseball team .

five foot ten . 140 / 63 kg . slim figure . the gods blessed him with a teeny - tiny waist . brown skin + dark brown eyes . shoulder length shaggy jet black hair that he ties into a half ponytail so it stays out of his face . pure 1980s jock energy written all over him . he even wears a red varsity jacket every day . paints his nails sometimes ( it's usually kind of messy because he lets his little sister do it most of the time . ) skin is mostly clear but he does have a couple of acne scars on his face . has callous and rough hands . but they're still nice to hold i promise .

literally one of the friendliest people ever . he's a huge extrovert who hates being alone . gets so excited whenever people ask him to do things with them that he turns into a golden retriever . you ,,, you want him to go to the store with you !? you want him to help pick out cereal !? HELL YEAH ! he's already fumbling to get his shoes on and running out the door before you can even finish getting the question out of your mouth . he just really loves doing little domestic shit with his friends . it makes him so , so happy !! he also gets this like kicked puppy look if you don't ask him to come with you when you're doing something . do you not want him there ?? 🥺 (it's cuz he's got attachment issues , but shhh . you didn't hear that from me . )

he's so openly affectionate !! in all the ways , his love language is really flexible . you don't like hugs ?? that's okay , he'll just give you something . getting gifts makes you uncomfy ?? no problem , he can shower you with affectionate words and compliments . will bend over backwards to show his love in whatever way he can . generally pretty laid back but he does have a habit of going " language ! " when people cuss because he's so used to being around little kids all the time . it's usually impulsive and he doesn't actually care as long as there are no kids around , so he gets pretty embarrassed afterwards . for his sake , just pretend he never said anything . he's also probably the one teenage boy who has never swore a day in his life .

but he's only human and he does have his flaws . damn , he was almost perfect /j . like he tends to jump to conclusions , but instead of lashing out he bottles it up , insecure about his relationships and how others perceive him . might seem confident but he's actually really anxious and has trouble asking for help in fear of seeming weak . his sense of worth is so unhealthily dependent on his ability to be self - reliant that he'll try to handle everything on his own when he can't . quite prone to jealousy ( the 😭 type of jealousy , not the 🤬🔪 kind . ) also has the habit of saying he's fine when people are concerned for him but then getting upset that they didn't notice he's lying or pressure him to open up more even though he said he was fine in the first place !!

he's also got adhd and his rejection sensitivity dysphoria is b a d . like receiving any sort of criticism makes him want to quit doing everything forever . and he gets annoyed pretty quickly . his RSD makes him eager to please but his short temper makes his behavior volatile , and that makes for a wonderfully dizzying combination of people pleasing and screaming matches over very small things . he's never been able to regulate his emotions beyond the extremes . also cannot stay on his train of thought for the life of him . it's also less of a train and more of a roller coaster going haywire , dodging any semblance of coherent thought . tends to lose his point a lot because he makes random connections and NEEDS to bring them up before he forgets them forever .

reese cannot handle being called annoying . words like freak , idiot , overly sensitive and stuff all hurt . but nothing makes him flinch and want to cry like the word annoying does . annoying means that he's not just weird , he's bothersome , a chore to deal with . annoying means that nobody wants him there . annoying means that there's something fundamentally wrong with him that other people are repulsed by . and sometimes it doesn't even need to be said . something as simple as a peer rolling their eyes at his antics can feel like a knife stabbing deep into his chest and tearing out chunks of his soul . when that happens , he tends to close himself off for awhile , locking himself away for hours . nobody wants an annoying person around , after all .
