you and i are going under

[carter beau benson]

maybe we can both recover !

alright, so. carter is twenty and goes to central college. he's very very guarded. he doesn't really talk to people unless they talk to him first and when he does talk he never says anything revealing. he has a bad past and was in the military but afterward he moved to cali. so yeah. little more about him down there v

friends !

i think carter would have a bunch of friends even though he's not trusting. like..since he never talks about himself, people trust him easily and he's perfectly fine with that. he's a good listener and gives pretty good advice but he definitely won't open up to anyone about himself. maybe there could be one person who's like really sweet and genuine who he feels he can trust though? that's a pretty big maybe haha.

enemies !

he doesn't like confrontation so i'm not sure how many people would be on his bad side. he was in the military though so maybe someone who's really against war might dislike him but for the most part he has a pretty laid-back attitude.

lovers !

alright so this is gonna be the fun part. carter's not a whore, and he's not a cheater and blahblah so there won't be many one night stands. there should definitely be a few ex's though, mostly good terms i think? maybe a few bad. keep in mind that he won't open up to anyone though, even someone he's dating. i think he should definitely have a current who could get annoyed at the fact that he never really talks to her.

[dallas]

okay 1) LOVE HIMMMMMMM

2) i definatly see Archer and Wyatt being his friend.

and Rowan Start off as friends that eventually move into feelings for each other and dating?

[carter beau benson]

of course bby!

[dancer]

nikkie <3 i'll throw rea out there for close friend, maybe one he tells secrets to or not because shes good or keeping them, or maybe just good friends. he's a cutie, lol.

[carter beau benson]

well i could see them definitely being friends but i don't think he'd trust her, just because he never trusts anyone and then the fact that she's a gossip won't help the matter lol. but he'd totally be willing to listen to her problems!

[dancer]

hahah yess, because you can never have too many friends. im?

[dougie lee pittman]

sure. as long as you start it while i go set him up with a screenname haha.

CARTER+LEN

I love Carter something fierce. Aside from this, I truly think that Len would be drawn to him because of the mystery. She wouldn't want to know everything because that would ruin the novelty of it but she'd definitely be curious and would eat up every tidbit of information he dropped - if he happened to drop any. See, the reason I see them being cool is that they are social but are fine not being ultra chatty. Granted, Len can be when the time is right, but it isn't necessary. Plus, she'd give him space. If he ever did finally feel comfortable around someone, maybe it could be Len? She'd keep things pretty casual and light so as to not smother him and make him go back into his shell. Plus, he's cute. She'd make it a personal goal to get him to smile at least once a week. Ha. Plus, she's a total goose so maybe she could, through her own quirkiness, get him to come out of his shell? Even a teeny bit?

Of course, let me know if you are keen. Feel free to scrap this or come up with something different. They could def be platonic. Len finds beauty in pretty much anything and she's very intutive and can easily develope feelings for him but, so as to not let things be awkward, she'd keep 'em under wrps ( ;

[carter beau benson]

wowz! i love how thought out it is! i love the whole idea but especially where he becomes like a challenge to her. i think that her curiosity about him would spark his too since he's not used to people taking a special interest in him. she's probably amuse him too which is always good because not many things can hold his attention like that. i think they'd definitely be friends but he'd make sure to be extra cautious about what he says to her, knowing that she'd be waiting for something to come out.

[kelsox]

Awww! She's not manipulative (well, unless you wrong her in some way), she's just curious. And it probably wouldn't be obvious that she was trying to be all detective-like and piece together his story. She would just see any information he divulges as a gift, like she's inching that much more closer to him. She wouldn't need to be welcomed fully in, she just likes finding things out about people. Kinda like finding pieces of a puzzle. It's fun to her. But it would make it interesting if he remained cautious - which makes sense due to his character 'n all. I'm not 100% sure if she'd grow bored/tired of the shield he puts up. I'll probably get a better idea if we got around to having them interact.. and once I get a better feel for Len. She's pretty child-like when it comes to her fascination with things and her genuine curiosity so she could, very easily, lose interest. I guess it all depends on how strong their relationship is. Len tends to remain extremely loyal if she's formed a strong bond with someone. -shrug- Up to you, m'dear!

[carter beau benson]

yeah, i totally understand how she could lose interest in him. he'll probably start off by giving her odd looks but will eventually start really talking to her. do you want to thread them to see how they interact?

[carter beau benson]

oh goodness. poor carter needs some more lovin'!

[kelsox]

eeek! I'm working on a post. Been busy. That is, if you are still keen? As much as I'd like to have them established as odd friends, having them meet could also be fun.. so I'll go with that. If that's okay with you, of course ( ;

[carter beau benson]

take your time! don't fret! and yeah, i definitely think them meeting could be interesting.

[chlochlo]

Ex's on good terms? Maybe still some unresolved feelings there? Tell me watcha think pumpkin.
