London is striking to look at, but his older sister is even prettier would you believe *eyeroll*. Naturally blessed, he's in pretty good shape despite being lazy as sin. He's slim, very skinny. About 5'9" he's not too tall, not too short. He typically dresses with kind of a grunge/punk vibe. Ripped jeans, doc martens and a plaid shirt over a black tank top. When he's not in casual street-wear. He has a star tattooed behind his ear (if you can find it behind all those lush curls) and used to have his ears, stomach and both nipples pierced. He doesn't wear those piercing anymore, except for the left nipple piercing and a recent tongue piercing. He has small scars from the other piercings where they've healed up. He also has a small scar on his collarbone where he fell and broke his collar and the bone pierced through the skin. Other than that he's relatively unblemished.

Aside from that, his primary goal is to satisfy his overbearing father. ⋗ [b]P H I L O S O P H Y ⫻[/b] If you smile and say it with confidence, people will believe anything. People are stupid. ⋗ [b]S E C R E T S ⫻[/b] He's not out of the closet at home. Recently coming out to only his closest friends. He'd be devastated if his family discovered his orientation. He's secretly "dating" a girl to cover his sexuality and hasn't told her the truth. ⋗ [b]D E S I R E S ⫻[/b] Someone to be himself with. He's sick of all the lies and really needs to hear "it's okay to be gay" from someone and actually believe it. ⋗ [b]S E X U A L I T Y ⫻[/b] Gay ⋗ [b]F E A R S ⫻[/b] Being outed. Letting down his father. Confined spaces. ⋗ [b]R E P U T A T I O N ⫻[/b] His parents think he's a perfect Golden Boy, but those who know him know he's a reckless bad-boy. ⋗ [b]P E T P E E V E S ⫻[/b] Photographs (don't take his picture, he'll only agree if he thinks you're somethin' special), whistling (just ... don't). ⋗ [b]Q U I R K S ⫻[/b] For someone who claims to be utterly independent and have his life together, he's really not that way at all. He's quite clingy if he gets close to someone. He's incredibly cunning and despite his high intelligence, he can be utterly dense socially which is why he's yet to establish a real, genuine relationship with someone.

Pft whatever."[/i] [indent][indent] London is the youngest of two in the London family household. His older sister Cassandra is 23. The family grew up in an affluent neighbourhood, his father involved in the stock trade. He was an autocrat and London's mother an obedient housewife. All in all, the family was tense due to the authoritarian father figure, but in no ways deprived. London got the best education money could buy. The siblings were always measured against one another and London always trumped his sister. She greatly resented him. Naturally charismatic, clever and good popular with colleagues. When he was in high school he began to get interested in boys. One snog under the bleachers and his sister had finally won ... She told their mother who immediately insisted she never breathe a word of it again or else she'd be in serious trouble. Cassandra kept her word but took great delight in tormenting London in secret. London's relationship with his mother was very fraught after this and he began "dating" popular "acceptable" girls to try win her approval back with limited success. His father on the other hand couldn't be happier. Father and son remained close and maintained an amicable relationship. His father, who originally wanted London to follow him into the stock trade, instead promised to fund him to study whatever his heart desired because he was "so proud". He took english literature, told his dad he'd become a renowned english lit lecturer or something with a good reputation and large pay cheque. To the outside observer, London's had a cushy, privileged upbringing, and he himself is aware of it, but his closeted homosexuality is a dark cloud looming over him.

Really."[/i] [indent][indent][indent] ⋗ [b]Lying ⫻[/b] He's been keeping up appearances for a while, he's adept when it comes to acting like everything is going swimmingly. If you think he's telling you the full truth and being utterly unreservedly honest ... we'll you're probably wrong. ⋗ [b]Acting ⫻[/b] Lets face it, if you're fake-dating a girl to convince your father you're straight, you need to be a half-decent actor ⋗ [b]Manipulation ⫻[/b] He's good at getting his own way. If he can blackmail you, he will, then again, he learned it from his manipulative sister so of course he got a few pointers ⋗ [b]Quoting Shakespeare from memory ⫻[/b] The most useful skill you will ever encounter [/indent][/indent][/indent] [h3][u][b] ⦕ O T H E R [/b][/u][/h3] [i]"I don't need anyone. Since when have I ever needed any of you?!"[/i] [indent][indent]He's obviously lookin' for lurve if theres any takers, not that he'll make it easy on ya, he blows hot and cold because he's conflicted.
