He can definitely come off as someone who just drank three cups of coffee before doing much of anything as he tends to bounce around quite a bit, usually out of nerves. Teddy is a nervous sort by nature, he's awkward socially and usually prone to much excitement at any mention of fashion. Teddy is a good soul though, warm and compassionate, his heart is in the right place. Teddy is usually well liked by those around him, not one to step on any toes purposefully, though he can put his foot in his mouth sometimes. Teddy is oblivious most of the time, lost in his head or in another world entirely, he can be quite spacey. He's also gullible to a fault, will believe people when they tell him things most of the time, and that can be a major downfall of his. He can come off socially immature at times because he's slightly autistic. He's just a shy, nervous, awkward bundle of human with too much energy and no idea what to do with it. But he's unfailingly polite, really intelligent when he wants to be, really good at math, and selfless. He will do whatever it takes to help those in need, stand up to bullies, and make sure that those without a voice still get heard. He'd a big supporter of equal rights for everyone, often found at protest rallies vying for the rights of every human. Teddy is obsessed with fashion, he follows all the blogs and religiously attends New York Fashion Week every year. His favorite designer is Alexander McQueen, and he aspires to have his own line someday. For now, he just writes columns about fashion which does him quite well financially. But Teddy has dreams of grandeur. [/indent] [color=cyan]Upbringing Synopsis[/color] [indent]Born to Douglas and Marcie Gage in early October, Teddy was always a happy go lucky child. He was raised to two doctors, both had high hopes that someday Teddy would also go into the field of medicine. But it was evident even when Teddy was a child, that he really loved clothes. Teddy would sneak into his mother's closet and try on all her nice dresses, walk around in her heels, and spend hours pormuring over fashion magazines. His parents knew, they knew he was gay from when he was still small. But Teddy was too scared to tell them, too worried they'd reject him. Teddy was raised in private school, all the best ones since his parents were renowned doctors in Palm Beach, they made good money and could afford the best education for their son. Teddy took to the upper class lifestyle like a fish to water, reveling in the posh way the people carried themselves and so wishing to dive headfirst into that world himself. He loved the glitz and glamor of the fashion world, and wanted to dress upstanding people in the finest silks and fabrics. When he was fourteen, Teddy finally told his parents that he was gay. They weren't surprised if course, and loved him all the same. They were really good parents, loving and supportive despite Teddy being so different from what they had initially hoped for. Despite that, they were fiercely protective of their son, and Teddy loved them more than his own life. He was very close to his family, no matter how small it was. When he was sixteen, Teddy had his first "serious" boyfriend, which lasted exactly six months before Teddy found him schtuping the school's tight end after football practice. Since then, Teddy hasn't been in any serious relationships... Except for his current one. Julian and He had been on again and off again for about three years, and Teddy was frankly exhausted by it. He was about to call it quits for good if Julian didn't make up his mind with what he wanted. But Teddy couldn't find himself to completely walk away, there was just [I]something[/I] keeping him there. But Teddy had no idea what it was. When he graduated from high school, Teddy's parents announced shortly afterward that they would be moving permanently to New York City. Having chose to go to a New York City school himself for college, namely NYU, Teddy was sceptical of the timing. His parents had always been protective, but not the the point of stalking him when he went off to college. The timing was coincidental though, as his father had just been offered as position as the leading neurosurgeon at Mount Sinai hospital in New York City, which was currently listed as one of the Top Hospitals in the country. His mother being a pediatric nurse made the move a no-brainer. Before he knew it, his entire family had relocated from Florida to New York City. He spent the next four years studying fashion design at NYU with a minor in fashion journalism. But his fashion career was not a walk in the park as Teddy's first serious job was as a waiter for a restaurant not far from his flat in Brooklyn. The next three years were spent working his way out of the waiting tables world and into the fashion world, landing an intern position at Vogue.com. After a year as an intern he finally worked his way into a fashion journalism job, which was one step closer to his dream. Currently he's one of the top fashion editorialists in his office, with his eyes on a fashion designing job.
