ARI F. ADASSI
"I ONCE WAS LOST BUT I SWEAR I'M FINE—" • frnkiero andthe cellabration
Name:
Ari Francis Adassi
Nickname:
None - Ari does tend to introduce himself by his surname, pure reflex at this point.
Birth Date:
Oct 31
Age:
17
Gender:
Male
Sexuality:
...exploring?
Relationship Status:
Single
Occupation:
Works at a pizza place, Little Joey's, making the pizza.
Classification:
Senior
Role:
Emo - although even Ari admits he's a bit of a punk at times.
In Depth Appearance:
Ari has very defined facial features - specifically, his sharp, square jawline and perched cheekbones. He has a sort of bunny nose, coming to a point and sloping without any sort of Roman bump interrupting it. His eyebrows are the most defined part of his face, arching into an admirable angle that he surprisingly achieves without any extra help. His eyes are always widened just a little, dark brown and seemingly baring their teeth, but as intimidating as he tries to be, he always ends up looking a tad innocent because of them. Additionally, he always has red rimming around his eyes, likely only emphasized by the paleness of his skin. Ari's lips are always curved just a little bit upward at the edges, out of his control.
His complexion is fairly clear and on the lighter side, although his Italian ancestry suggests that he should be a little darker. His hair is shaggy and dark, grown out to where it can flop in his face but still stands up awkwardly at the back. He has two adjacent wings tattooed on either hipbone, a flame on his chest, and sleeves to brag about. He typically wears a ring in his right nostril and one on his bottom lip.

Habits | Quirks | Oddities
- Less of a habit than it is a total vulnerability, Ari is sick. Constantly. When he was younger, it was constant bronchitis, and now it's a little less serious, but much more frequent.
- Ironically, he's always smoking. He's practically a chimney. Kinda smells bad as a result of it.
- Doesn't shower very well, either. Negative points. Ari just doesn't see it as crucial, and can't bring himself to get out of bed and clean himself either.
- Always somewhat down in the dumps. Ari has a serious serotonin deficit, and can't seem to find the good in situations easily.
- When he's medicated, however, Ari is too playful for his own good. Some people never find the right prescription in their life, but 200mg of fluoxetine is the perfect match for Ari. When he gets it, his friends like him a lot more, because he'll jump all over the place and find a way to get close to his peers.
Hobbies:
- Plays guitar & bass & occasionally vocals
- Writing lyrics
- Somewhat of a prankster
Likes:
- Smoking
- Practical jokes
- Moving - again, when medicated, he's got boundless energy.
- Comic books
- VERY loud music
Dislikes:
- Drugs (in pill form, really)
- Meat/animal products
- The cold
- "Phonies" (AKA, anyone in a clique above him, out of sheer jealousy)
- Authority
Fears:
- Judgment
- Solitude
- Social isolation
Personality:
♦ HUMOROUS ♦ TEMPERAMENTAL ♦ PASSIONATE ♦ IRRESPONSIBLE ♦
Ari is typically called “antisocial” because his overall personality style causes him to frequently violate major social norms and end up running afoul of the law (even though this is usually out of his control). He is openly and unabashedly aggressive in his interpersonal style, relishes in trying to “beat the system,” and because he detests submission, refuses to conform his conduct despite numerous negative consequences and sanctions. His life is a constant war, resisting submitting himself to any higher power or authority. Ari has little respect for rules, limits or boundaries, and takes pride in his ability to defy these constraints. He expends energy on his own behalf, but vehemently resists what others would call legitimate work or labors of love. He simply shirks the typical burdens of a responsible life and leads a socially parasitic lifestyle.
He knows what his values are, but has a really hard time expressing them, and sometimes even sticking to them. He can compromise what he believes in, if it means he can execute his plan. Intimacy is a real problem for him - he prefers to hide how important and close his values are to him with jokes and arms-length relationships. Ari does not show or receive affection well, but he does read into the sentimental meaning behind small gestures. That said, Ari is generally well meaning and dutiful, however, he does have a strong ambitious streak. He has a few causes that he supports, but he participates in activism very passively. Mostly, he focuses a lot on the future. He is constantly day dreaming about the future, including his improbable day dream fixation, the partners he has made up for himself, etc. He thinks that he’ll have kids, be more successful in his career, finally get a true hold on his life... even though he’s pessimistic most of the time, he also just senses and knows that he will find his way.
Made obvious by his obsession with making his future a 'better place,' Ari wants harmony and order in his home and in relationships. Ari trusts his intuition when choosing friends and significant others—even in spite of contradictory evidence or pressure from others. His emotions are hard to read, and he's not apt to express emotional reactions. He often seems reserved and unresponsive, while in fact he is very much hypersensitive to signals of rejection from those he cares for. Ari is usually better in a working situation than in a recreational situatio thanks to this fact, because he's usually not expected to show his true feelings.
Ari has an irascible temperament and a low frustration tolerance. It takes very little to get him upset, and he will not subject himself for very long to anything he finds distasteful or unpleasant. Otherwise, he is remarkably sensation-seeking and risk-taking, prone to “chasing highs.” He will do things most of us would get anxious or hesitant about and will persist in his behavior unshaken despite numerous adverse consequences. Unwilling to delay gratification or to temper his impulses, Ari wants what he wants when he wants it and acts without restraint. This is because he lacks the internal self-monitoring and self-governing mechanisms most people have. Though even Ari has to agree that his life is a true shipwreck, he persists in the same old behaviors that get him into trouble time after time.

History:
Ari was born to Elena and Roman Adassi. Elena works as a publicist, and Roman is a musician whose career hasn't exactly taken off - or it's reached its peak. Either way, they were both very distant from one another and their own son. Ari never got along with either of them fantastically.
Ari did exceptionally in elementary. He would do his schoolwork immediately as it was given to him, and seemed to be ahead of all of his peers. Physically he wasn't so well off. Young Ari had trouble staying in school due to his generally poor health - he frequently had to overcome bouts of bronchitis, and succumbed very easily to fevers. He had too many allergies to live as easily as all his peers did, so he ended up being very isolated most of the time. He exhibited some additional strange habits during these younger years, such as bruising himself, picking his skin away, pulling his hair out... Ari would hit his head repeatedly against walls, rip nails from their beds over the course of a few hours, scrape his knees against cement intentionally. His parents only seeked treatment when there was a very noticeable bald patch on the back of his head.
Ari began failing in his seventh year of school. He was not mentally or emotionally stable in addition to his failing health; his father was unemployed and his mother was an apathetic and judgmental presence in his home. He began to wonder where the scholarly skills he presented in elementary school went, and if he didn't have that cleverness, what did he have now? Without any real catalyst, Ari was sent to an inpatient hospital for acute treatment - basically, he stayed a week for observation, where he could speak to a therapist at any given time. Needless to say, Ari didn't make a lot of progress, because he didnt know why he was so depressed. It was just something he coexisted with, at this point. Upon the encouragement of his psychiatrist, though, he did pick up the guitar in order to mirror his father. This became his fixation - he's not done anything else since, really.
In the year before high school, in January, Ari attempted suicide. He cut classes starting at at 9:15, took bottles of different painkillers, aspirin, and all of his antidepressants on an empty stomach, then went to watch films in his room. Somewhere between getting serotonin syndrome and hitting his head against the wall to 'speed up the process,' Ari passed out. He stayed in his room like that for the rest of the day and throughout the night before his father came in to bring him to school the next morning. Seeing as he hadn't taken nearly enough to kill someone at his body weight - or at least, he hadn't gotten enough time - it was enough for him to drink sweet cherry charcoal and be on his way. Kind of. He was in the ICU for three days, too weak to walk and too shaky to handle anything himself. He stayed at a residential center in his state for two months before convincing the psychiatrists that he was well enough to leave.
His parents separated soon after; not like it affected Ari much, since he wasn't very preoccupied with either parents. Beverly Hills seemed like a promising place to have a fresh start, though, so his father and him moved towards the school, just enough distance to stay in an affordable home and still be within range of the buses.
