Like his clothes, which are ironed and never wrinkled, so is his demanor. When he speaks, he does so with eloquence and tact; when he approaches someone -- especially a person who may have caught his interest -- he is focused but also playful in how he speaks/acts towards them. It’s not really that he sees it as a game to play or that the other person is a target for his amusement. If anything, he likes to challenge [i]himself[/i]. But, of course, the thrill of the chase, regardless what it results in, is always a plus. First impressions are with him can go either way. Due to his usually pretentious and arrogant attitude, Nicholas can be polarizing. Because he has a flair for theatrics and enjoys a good game of intellectual showdown, he [i]does[/i] have the potential to be friendly. Hell, depending on how willing he is to give someone the benefit of the doubt, he might not dart away the moment he becomes really bored. And when he does, this only happens when a conversation is so utterly dull and he picks up on the lack of depth within a person. When this does happen, Nicholas won’t care how rude it is. He will leave mid-conversation and find something or someone else to cure his boredom and he doesn’t care how it makes him appear. The bottom line with Nicholas is he’s a young man with superior tastes and a love for self-made entertainment. You won’t catch him in any confrontations and he likes his personal space. He marches to the beat of his own drum and sometimes others can keep up. If they can’t, then that’s on them. He won’t waste time picking up the slack of those who aren’t worth his time. But to those who meet his high expectations, Nicholas shows an extended interest in them and that’s where the real fun begins. [/indent] [img]https://i.imgur.com/Qjn4cnX.png[/img] [indent] [color=steelblue]✸[/color] For reasons he can’t explain, Nicholas is the type of person to instinctually [url=https://i.imgur.com/YBCEHGW.gif]smirk and laugh[/url] in any given situation. [indent][sub]Usually accompanied by shaking his head. He does it sometimes without realizing it and with no reason behind it. It’s his defense mechanism for when he hears something absurd and no words would suffice as a response. It is also done when he flirts, is irate, down, bewildered-- basically any emotion he might be experiencing at any time and a physical response is required, he does this.[/sub][/indent][color=steelblue]✸[/color] Be it in the dance studio or the theater auditorium, he likes the tranquil solitude they provide rather than the crowded places around campus such as the football field and common areas. [indent][sub]Side Note: He also frequents the courtyard, especially at night. He likes when the moonlight hits it and adds an extra layer of beauty to the lights that dangle above.[/sub][/indent][color=steelblue]✸[/color] He is a diehard romantic underneath the part of him that can’t help play the self-game of finding the ideal mate. As such, he indulges in romantic behavior [s]even if it does come across as borderline playerish[/s]. [color=steelblue]✸[/color] Nicholas finds that painting on any surface- be it a building or a white, blank canvas - to be the best release of stress. [color=steelblue]✸[/color] Has a fondness for floral shapes, patterns, and colors and wears nothing but shirts representing this love. [color=steelblue]✸[/color] Nicholas constantly and consistently teases Billie about being 9 minutes older than her (much to her vexation) [color=steelblue]✸[/color] Binging Grey’s Anatomy has become a tradition for the twins.

Just what happened that set it in stone? What was it that made the powers that be to seek out these two and want to grab them off the street before anyone saw them? Surely their disappearance was noticed? Maybe... But first, let's ask what life they lived. Their life that they were taken from was fairly normal (all things considered). They had two parents — [url=https://i.imgur.com/ln0FUt7.jpg]Kavi Antonio Salvador[/url], an actor known for Broadway and his leading role on the Daytime Soap Opera, With or Without Love; and his wife, [url=https://i.imgur.com/fpVnz09.jpg]Ariel Grey-Salvador[/url], a music producer who works for Fallen Angel Records, a subsidiary of The HartCorp Entertainment Group. Both loved each other and their family, though both had insanely busy job. Thankfully, however, they (Billie and Nicholas) had an older sister who passed them by at least three years. She often had to assume the role of both parents: the father to be strict when the twins caused trouble (and trust us, they were a pair who were often up to no good) and the mother when they needed a guiding hand with a softer touch. It was difficult for [url=https://i.imgur.com/redeP5q.jpg]Fiona[/url], but the impression left on Nicholas was a large one. He really looked up to her and idolized his older sister to the point where she was the example of what an ideal mate should be: strong, gentle, and absolutely captivating. Nicholas grew up in the shadow of both his parents and his sister had experienced the same feeling, too. But in his case, he was less likely to display it in such a verbal way. As much as he loves his twin -- and that's saying a lot because she has proven time and time again how annoying she can be -- Nicholas always approached situations and problems with a bit of tact. He was never one to get into fights or verbally assault someone like Billie often did. In a lot of ways, Nicholas was most like his [url=https://i.imgur.com/sY3k0Fd.jpg]Aunt Nikki[/url]. She was kind and full of elegance. But no matter how passive he was during a confrontation, Nicholas had always proven himself to have her back. If Billie ever needed him for something, he was there in a heartbeat. He would drop [I][b]everything[/b][/i] to be there for her. Whether it was for moral support when she was going to beat down some unlucky person who was talking mad shit about her or for a night of adventure, he was there. As much as he knew she appreciated this about him, it was also what led to the circumstances they currently find themselves in. One summer night, not long after their Junior year, which also coincided with the twins' birthday, they celebrated their birthday by doing what they always did: spent the night around town and making their favorite spots pop with a fresh dose of color. Where Billie chose landscapes as her focus on this night, Nicholas did what he did best: he painted a happy tree. His plants were legendary. He liked to do pine trees, since they were his favorite scent. Even when he closed his eyes, he could still imagine the fresh smell of a pine tree on Christmas morning. It was his favorite memory. At 3:01 am exactly, while they were finishing up their rounds, instead of the sight of their masterpiece, the twins only saw darkness. They disappeared into the night as the revving sounds from an engine of a black van drove down a lonely Manhattan street, leaving the neighborhood a lot less bright as the Salvador-Twins never were to be seen again.

On the surface, it's easy to see why he would be interested in her: the way her rosey lips arch and show her pearly whites in the purest way when she laughs, the way she can make any day -- even one ridden with melancholy -- seem not so bad, and, of course, her hair. Nicholas can be honest with himself and say that, for reasons unknown to him, he always had a particular lean towards blondes, but the way Tyler Jane makes him feel, in addition to her being a [I]fascinating person[/i], he could maybe consider forgetting about that. Does he have romantic feelings for her? That's to be determined. Only thing he knows for certain is she's very pleasant to be around, which is rare when you factor in just how many lust-o-holics are at [enter name of the academy here] Academy.

There is no doubt in his mind about what he feels for Tyler JAne is the real deal. The problem he faces on a consistent basis is, in fact, that for so long he has operated under the impression that if he's not in a relationship, there's no harm in giving other people some attention. Not that he would ever do anything with Savannah, but maybe, if he could get away with it, they could have some fun. Or if not, then thinking about some of the exciting things they could do is more than enough.

Billie Jean is a wonderful sister and Nicholas would die for his twin, but even he can recognize she is a handful. If he was being 100% transparent, he might say he is the only one who can ever know the lengths she'll go for him. This is largely due to the fact that it matches his loyalty to her. And for all of her faults and everything that might drive everyone bonkers -- [color=steelblue]"it drives me up a wall sometimes too"[/color] -- Nicholas has a love for Billie Jean that is, quite literally, the kind of sibling love that only twins can have.

[color=steelblue]"That's a good question."[/color] Maybe the best way to explain what their friendship is like is to compare how certain food combos don't always read like they work when you look up a recipe, but if you just let it come together and taste it for yourself, you might come to find it's actually not bad. Like a piece of cheese dipped in peanut butter, though it sounds absolutely atrocious, Leo and Nicholas has the sort of friendship that started out as an ill-conceived, often antagonistic enemyship that soon blossomed into a co-dependency. Both appreciate beauty and both appreciate each other's characteristics. Unlike a certain tiger they both know, Nicholas feels no animosity towards Leo Brooks. He might become irksome from time to time, but that's nothing a little reverse psychology can't fix.

She'll berate him when he gets out of hand [s]or when he and Griff clash past the point of her tolerance level[/s], she'll probably punch him a few times, but at the end of the day, Nicholas understands it comes from a place of love. She is like a sister to him. While they aren't as close as he is with Billie, Sol is another one Nicholas will go to bat for. Of course, given the way she hits him, there might not be a need for that. [color=steelblue]"Still, you have my sword. And my bow. And my ax.

Their relationship can go 0-100 in a matter of moments. Their egos get the better of them and that could lead to some high-octane, verbal shouting matches in which Nicholas is at his worst. But there have also been times where not only do they get along, they compliment each other's vibes in such a way that one might think they're best friends. Nicholas is conceited and Griffin doesn't take his shit like most would. That's something of a magical combo that hasn't been seen in quite a while.

Of course, she's attractive and might even had a shot at him if she wasn't two things. First off, if she wasn't so ambiguous in how she defined their friendship [s]and didn't seem oblivious to his advances[/s]; and secondly, if she wasn't Billie's best friend. Nicholas is a lot of things and he even will own up to most of them, but he doesn't date his sister's best friend or any of her close friends. If they seem to be a seven in closeness or higher, he'll look the other way. Or if Billie hates them, it's all fair game, which is saying a lot cause Billie hates a lot of people.
