Don't get it wrong. Coop grew up with money and all the support he could ask for. What he didn't have was the attention. Like short bursts of someone's drug of choice, he'd done drama, he'd tried sports, he attempted to DJ, and got in on the Tik Tok trend of dancing when it was still about dancing. All of those were flashes in a pan--brief like a sunrise. No, he wants something that will stick. He wants adoration. He wants crowds. He wants a brand deal with any clothing company so he can have a shirt that will fit his long torso flatteringly. So what motivates him is to be his best [b]most profitable[/b] self.

He has to get them under control (read: smothered, really smothered) before he can step forward. So, he's here to join THE HOTNESS or whatever.

There we follow a young [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color], who is playing in the shallow end of the pool. His mother is laying out on an adirondack chair, a large straw hat covering her eyes. He gets distracted by the arrival of his father through the sliding glass doors. He runs along the side of the pool, slipping on a puddle, and falling into the deep end of the pool. His parents talk for a moment before realizing what has happened. We fade to black. [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color] is still coughing up pool water while covered in a towel, but he's recovering. His mother hands him some ice cream and mumbles things in fast-paced Italian. His dad is nowhere to be seen. Cut to him standing in front of his father's locked office door. Years pass. His mother is supporting him, applauding him, taking care of him, and otherwise being the best cheerleader that a young boy could have. There are several shots of his father shutting his door in [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color]'s face. Really zoom in at each slam--make the audience feel the neglect. His mother tries to bandage the pain the only way she knows how is with smothering and food. Pan over to a rather chubby (read obese, but no one wants to see that on the screen) [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color] being teased in class. The laughter mixes in with the slamming of the door, and his mother trying to bandage things further with cooking. The calendar flips by and shows the solid progression of years, and we see that his teenage years are kind to him as he hits a major growth spurt. That's doubled with lots of shots of him running through his upper-class neighborhood, styling his hair to match whatever is popular on Instagram, better clothing choices, and a slowly growing confidence. But there are some worrying cuts to him eyeing his scales and marking progress on a vague, unnamed fitness application. We're going to remove the troubling scenes of him at his psychiatrist's office. No discussion of his body dysmorphia. We may bring up his ADHD for relatable laughs later on in the story. This newfound confidence leads him to take on a plethora of activities. Yet, the one that sticks is drama. We see him move up from background actors, to the top ensemble, and to the lead. And--he's pretty good. We then cut to his mother opening the door to his father's office and discovering him in the midst of some scandalous, though humorous, adultery. There are scenes of them at a couple's counseling, the shots quickly transition to show them wearing different outfits conveying the passage of time. Slowly they start on opposite ends of the couch but slowly come together. The last one is them back in love with a full-on kiss. This transitions to them booking couples vacations, not showing up to [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color]'s events, and not picking him up after events. More calendar flips, and that escalates to [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color] doing more and more for attention. Out of the radical things he tries, he actually starts putting in for liberal arts colleges. The results aren't bad, but he's still in school. He has time. Time that he's alone in the house, acting out for attention. That leads to him in his late teens trying to get a selfie of him against the LA skyline in a risky shot that relies on him leaning off the side of one of the many cliffs. Well, he slips. The height is more or less fatal. But he blacks out in the middle of it. Then wakes up, entirely naked, in quite a crater. He's completely unscathed, and there's a crowd on the cliff above him taking pictures, while a park ranger asks him if he's okay while holding a towel. [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color] covers himself--wait for laughs--and the ranger hands him his towel and his phone. The phone has a cracked screen, but the audience can still hear the digitized [i]dings[/i] and can read the incoming messages. Someone tagged him in a video, and the comments are not--great. The camera shows [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color]'s face as it goes from confusion to panic to embarrassment. He throws his phone off the mountain. The park ranger just stares. [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color] asks if he could call an Uber. A few cuts to the doctor's office, maybe a few shots of a CT scan, or ultrasound, or something that looks medical and intimidating. You see the doctor shake his head at [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color]'s parents, who stare at their son in disbelief. Another hard cut back to [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color] practically destroying the insides of a fridge, and arguing with his mother--but the audience can't hear the argument. "Hungry Like the Wolf," by [i]Duran Duran[/i] plays over it. The audience can gather that [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color] is constantly hungry and can't help himself. More intense checking of his weight app as it goes up. But he looks in the mirror, and if anything he only looks thinner and more jacked. Something is definitely wrong here. The entire thing escalates when his father hands him a brochure for a school very far away from LA for his "problem" which leads to another fight. The dad says something along the lines of [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color] "weighing too much for the infrastructure of the house to hold him." That panics him. We can just assume he's weird about his weight. Remember we cut the body dysmorphia bit from earlier. Then BOOM, wide shot to the house crumbling around them. The red and white lights of the firetruck paint the family. The father is a little bloody and bruised, the mother is covered in sheetrock dust, and [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color] is naked--again--and angrily grabs the pamphlet from his father's hand. Cut to Vancouver, Canada for shooting as it is way cheaper, and the school is set in Canada. [color=#b7eb6f]COOP[/color] steps off the bus, and it rocks as he does. But the kids around him ignore it. He drops his bag on the ground and smiles a little at that fact. He takes a selfie, as his new Instagram journey has started.[/hider] [/indent][/COLOR][INDENT][sub][sup][h3][b][color=black] [color=2c2c2c]▅[/color] [sub]A B I L I T I E S, L I M I T A T I O N S, & W E A K N E S S E S[/sub][/color] [color=#e159cb]▅ [color=lightgray][sub]A B I L I T I E S, L I M I T A T I O N S, & W E A K N E S S E S[/sub][/color] ▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/color][/b][/h3][/sup][/sub][/INDENT] [COLOR=GRAY][INDENT][sub][b][color=white] H Y P E R H U M A N A B I L I T Y || [color=#e159cb] F A T M A N I P U L A T I O N[/color][/color][/b][/sub] [SUB][COLOR=2C2C2C]__[/COLOR][color=darkgray][b]PRIMARY CLASSIFICATION[/b] ||[/COLOR] [color=#b7eb6f] ESOTERIC[/color][/SUB] [SUB][COLOR=2C2C2C]__[/COLOR][color=darkgray][b]SECONDARY CLASSIFICATION[/b] ||[/COLOR] [color=#b7eb6f] SOMATIC[/color][/SUB] [INDENT]Coop's fat cells store his HZE, and have an effect on the surrounding cellular structures (read: muscle, bones, organs, and skin). Like most fat cells, when they are activated, they expand. When they're dormant, they become compact. When Coop doesn't activate them, he is a statistically perfect (<2% fat) model. He doesn't need to work out or watch his diet to have the perfect Adonis-like figure. Though he still does the former due to the downsides of his ability, we'll get to that. When they activate, they expand. They also consume any HZE around them to become more powerful. While Coop does have HZE stored within him, he can further expand his powers by absorbing the HZE around him. This may cause a detriment to other hyper-humans that are in the vicinity, but we'll also get that. His power, simply putting it, is invulnerability. Basically, the more fat he has on his body, the more invulnerable he is. It's not hard invulnerability, allowing for compromises when it comes to force, energy, and impact. He can survive terminal falls, bullets deflect off of him, and electricity and fire have no effect on his body. And as a side-effect of his power, he also has strength equal to his mass. Meaning a punch from him could range from breaking bones to crushing a car with ease. The cells are practically powerhouses, which causes the HZE to radiate outwards and affect the rest of his body. This allows for his form to complement the power within him. Meaning he can become taller, his skin more pliable, his muscles capable of supporting his weight, and his organs capable of keeping up with the pressure put upon them. He currently has a variation of his height being 6'4" to 8'4" and his weight being from 190 lbs to a ton.[/indent] [sub][b][color=darkgray] L I M I T A T I O N S || [color=#e159cb]HZE CONSUMPTION[/color][/color][/b][/sub] [INDENT]Coop's power relies on the use of not only the HZE inside himself but the HZE outside of himself. To keep the power fueled on the inside, he has to have a heavy intake of calories to keep the fat cells happy and viable. If he went without any form of nourishment for a while, his power wouldn't be able to be used at its full capacity if at all. If he's around other hyper-humans he might not have enough to draw into himself to reach the upper limits of his ability. Or he can consume it, leaving others around him without any HZE to manipulate. This makes it hard for him to work in a team setting when his ability is necessary to succeed. [/indent] [sub][b][color=darkgray] W E A K N E S S E S || [color=#e159cb]MOBILITY & [s]OUTFIT MALFUNCTIONS[/s][/color][/color][/b][/sub] [INDENT]For instance, if Coop uses his ability to its fullest there's a chance that he won't have the musculature to run or even walk. There's also a chance that his surroundings won't allow him any forward progression. Meaning he has to dispel the power to get anywhere fast, and it may be impossible for him to re-engage his power if he doesn't have any reserve HZE. Now, he doesn't have to reach the limit of his ability, and he has more mobility--but he has less power. There's a middle, sweet spot with it, but it's really reliant on practiced control. Which Coop doesn't have at the moment. So, to try to offset this as much as possible, he does work out to give him some residual strength that isn't reliant on the use of HZE. But no normal person can work out as much as it would take to be on an even level with carrying around a ton of weight. It's a wet bandaid on a broken dam. [s]Also, normal clothes can't withstand the use of his power. He's sure that he'll get an outfit to withstand it, but will it be perfectly tailored to him? Probably not.[/s][/indent][/INDENT][/COLOR] [COLOR=2c2c2c][sup]________________________________________________________________________________________[/sup][/color][/cell][/row][/table][INDENT][sub][sup][h3][b][color=black] [color=2c2c2c]▅[/color] [sub]P E R S O N A L P R O M P T S[/sub][/color] [color=#e159cb]▅ [color=lightgray][sub]P E R S O N A L P R O M P T S[/sub][/color] ▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/color][/b][/h3][/sup][/sub][/INDENT] [COLOR=GRAY][indent][sub][b][color=#b7eb6f]Y O U A W A K E I N T H E D E A D O F N I G H T, W H A T W O K E Y O U?[/color][/b][/sub] [indent]"I hope it's not my Twitter blowing up.

Yet, unlike a lot of her peers, she was actually able to make a career out of it where she was paid quite well. Though, considering the timeframe, a lot of the more risque photos require you to take your Google off of safe search. She met Franklin at a party, married him, and was quite content to give that life up in hopes of lounging by the pool and looking at the view. Her family never comes to visit.[color=666666]▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ Use as many or few of the above symbols as needed to balance this cell with the cell containing the image.[/color][/INDENT][/cell][/row][/table][/cell][/row][/table][/SUB][/INDENT]
