▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃}

Matt did not feel particularly inclined to follow AJ in his antics. He had no need to swerve and weave between the cars like his hotheaded friend. For him it was all about the sensation. The rumble of the engine, the vibrations of the car, the hot sun pouring down upon him and the wild wind. He was alone in his car and he was very happy about that. He loved Mandy and that’s why he knew she was better off in AJ’s car. Matt was more someone you talk to when you and him both had that one drink too much. Not too much that it makes you drunk but that one drink that pushes you that little bit further than you thought you’d go on the night. Right now though, Matt mostly wanted to be alone while he listened to Gwen’s music.

If you fuck in every area code, I expect to hear about it.

He snorted. It felt like a challenge. Something to do along the way. A little project for the summer. “Very well, Gwen.” He muttered. Yeah, it was to himself but what else was he supposed to do? Be mute the entire car trip? No, that wouldn’t do. In the distance, his eyes kept track of everyone’s vehicle. He could see Aleks’ car driven as only Aleks could. Monica was off speeding on her bike. Fast and agile but to Matt she was one of the best bikers he knew. Then there was AJ in the distance. Reckless as ever. Until it was a little too reckless. Matt saw the flash of yellow that was AJ’s car overtake a slow RV, the RV jerked off the road. Then there was just dust. Matt slowed down.

Luckily the yellow sports car of AJ came back into view. Not a scratch. Matt let out a sigh. The tension he didn’t know he was holding vanished from his body. Nothing bad happened. Well no, nothing bad happened to his friends. Frankly, he couldn’t particularly care about the RV. It wasn’t toppled or burning. AJ thought it was worth checking out though. So did Aleks apparently. So Matt slowed down enough to get ready to park near his friends.

The last thing he could see was AJ approaching the camper and someone inside getting out of it. Nothing bad seemed to happen. So Matt parked his car in front of Aleks’ car. When he got out things were getting out of hand fast. Was that Sami? It didn’t matter. Matt didn’t know the dude so he didn’t care for him. He did care for AJ and it looked like they were about to square off. Matt was many things but when the rings were off and the fists were out he stands right behind his friends. Ready to throw down if needed. So he made his way to the scene. Only to see The Crazy Bitch get out of the RV. He stopped next to Aleks’ car as he watched the scene unfold. Then the hug came. Yet anyone who saw Matt’s face could tell it looked sour. Like things just have gotten ten times worse. For Matt, that was an understatement. He took a long drag of his cigarette. The sort of drag you take with your eyes closed. The embers were visibly consuming the white paper and the tobacco inside. Half-way burned he tossed it aside.

He would be calm, yes. Calm. Calm and utterly ignoring the worst possible ‘human’ being on this planet. Aleks was nudging the RV with his toe. As to see what was wrong with it. Matt knew though. Coolant got busted probably. An easy fix. “That’s busted, man. Nothing we can do about it!” He said rather loud towards the Russian and Monica as walked towards AJ. He would have to convince him to leave. Matt didn't want to be around the misfits for longer than necessary and to him, the necessary time had long since passed.

Then Emilia, dazed and stumbling, made her way out of the RV. Matt froze to the ground. His eyes wide and all blood drained from his body. To the point that he could feel a little chill running through his spine. Of all people, of all misfits, she had to be on that RV. When she collapsed he woke up from his own shocked state. Shit, things were even worse. A part of his brain told him to run. To get out of there. He almost took a step backward until he saw her mannerism change. She began to cry.

Matt had enough. Suddenly everything changed. As resolute as ever he went up to her and set down in front of her. “Hey, you’re okay. That wasn’t such a big crash. You’re still in one piece.” Her sobs were tearing apart his chest. How much did she know? Had anyone told her about the other stuff? He wasn’t sure what was crueler. Her not knowing or someone telling her. “Want a chocolate bar?”

"OH FUCK OFF!"

At first Matt looked extremely confused at AJ as he got up from his seat. Then he fought every nerve in his body not to act smug as AJ looked like he wanted to deck him. This was by far a record of pissing AJ off. Normally it took at least a few minutes and maybe a jab towards him and Jamie. Not that Matt did that often. Just enough to know that it works. But then AJ turned to the others and threw his fries at them yelling to get them all.

It was then that Matt noticed Yessi. Or rather her eye rolling. Instantly all smugness fled his body. So it was going to be like that? No civility, just instant distaste. She didn’t have to be here or join in on the road trip. There were plenty of people for her to do in LA. Though then Matt realized that she probably thought the same of him to some extent. Which only meant that if they couldn’t stand each other on the trip it would eventually explode. Matt didn’t like those kind of explosions. They were far too taxing. Far too annoying. So he did what he always did. He threw Yessi an empty smile and then turned to the others. AJ was stomping off in the meantime.

He slid in the boot after Monica and Mandy took their seats. Right in time for Aleks to offer him a fry. “Don’t mind if I do.” He said as he reached over for one. Muscle memory made him hold it in between fingers like a cigarette before he chomped it down. Then it dawned to him that he alone could not be possible for AJ’s outburst. “I see you’ve all been working up AJ already. Damn it guys that’s so selfish.” He said with a worried face. As if he actually cared that AJ threw another tantrum. “You know how much I love setting off that guy. You really couldn’t wait until I got here?” He was sure to just face Chris and Aleks while keeping Yessi in the corner of his eyes. In all fairness, he was late.

Then Ellie joined in. “Nope, you didn’t miss anything.” He said with a far more inviting smile than he gave Yessi. “I set him off but I think I have to give credit to these two particular idiots.” He added as he pointed at Chris and Aleks. "But really, what better way is there to start a road trip off than with AJ throwing a tantrum." He flashed Ellie his almost trademarked shit-eating grin.

Spells in the Dark (18+ for Dark and suggestive themes)

Ryleth was far from bothered when the flames came. They simply washed over his wards. Even the attack from the canopy did not mind him. He simply took a step back to dodge the strike. Then he heard the screams. Those infernal screams behind him. He turned around to see the Seeker burned by the flames. “Fools.” He whispered as he wove his enchantment. Seconds later a wave of chill passed over the flames. Extinguishing them. Still, the Seeker looked like she was mortally harmed.

At the same time two phantasms struck the ground next to Ryleth. Ryleth himself turned to the Keeper, the Slave and where he assumed the Leader was as well. “You’re all fools for attacking a necromancer here. This forest is not a serene sanctuary. This is nature’s battlefield. You walk on thousands of corpses.” As he finished, the ground around him broke. From the depths of the earth a figure crawled. It looked humanoid but it was far from human.

The first to stand up was also the greatest. A massive creature with a cave bear skull. Its limbs and chest were made from fused bone. Blue candle flames burned in its eye sockets. Rotten hide covered its back and it held two axes made from bone and with femurs as handles.

Then the other figure appeared from the shadows. She looked the most human-like. With makeshift skin of leaves, bark and barely rotten flesh. At the seams of her supposed skin you could still see a faint blue glow. Her weapon was a bow made from two arms, each holding the end of the string. Even though she looked almost human, there was an ethereal aura surrounding her.

“This is your final chance to accept my offer.” He said as he already pulled out another phylactery. Ready to take the pixie-witch her soul.

He was a liar.

That’s what Matt realized as he sat on the hood of his BMW, observing his cigarette like it was a stick of incense. In the past months he had only lied more. It started in autumn with the white lies. The little things you tell people for their own good. Then there were the silences he kept. Lies for the greater good. For friendship. Then there were his lies of omissions. He never told a soul just how shit he felt the last month. He just smiled and said he didn’t feel so good and that he ate something wrong. But there was always a smile so nobody dug deeper. He didn’t want them to dig deeper. Everyone had their own stuff to work through. Though recently he graduated to full-on, blatant lies. The one he sold AJ a week ago about why he couldn’t be at the party. He told him he had to be at some factory rave last night, tying up some loose ends.

All because he didn’t want to see her. Avoiding things had been his strong suit. Matt didn’t want any conflict or awkwardness. It made his life difficult. If he couldn’t solve the problem with a pill it wasn’t worth engaging. Of course, that always comes around. Even now he wasn’t sure if she was going to join them. He touched the phone in his pocket. At any point, he could call Matt and ask. That would raise suspicion though so that was out of the question. On the other hand he could just call and say he’s out. Take away the uncertainty of it all. No, he wanted to be on this trip. He needed to be on this trip.

So there was only one thing to do. As his cigarette burned down he tossed it away and said his goodbyes to the wonderful LA beaches. Minutes later he was tearing out of the parking lot and headed for the In-n-Out they’d all meet at. Of course, he had Gwen on the radio. What else would a literal former student of BHHS do at the end of the year? He smiled as she mentioned the Gearhead trip. Finally, the head gossiper heard about it. Then she said something about a Misfit trip too. Now that was an odd thing. Oh well, there was nothing to worry about. The gearheads would tear off into the sunset before the misfits left LA. The very thought summoned a bright smile as he enjoyed his trip.

It took him half an hour to reach the In-n-Out. He was late but that was his style. As he drove up the parking lot he downshifted a gear too low for what most would use and pushed the gas. His engine roared for a moment. Heralding his arrival before he quickly parked his car. Once he got out and while he lit a new cigarette he was quick to notice just how late he was. Almost every ride of the Gearheads was present.

“This is going to be good!” He exclaimed as he approached the group though he remained standing. Then he saw everyone eating, out ordering or stealing food from another. Damn, AJ had lettuce stuck in his teeth. “I’m MIA for one party and suddenly you all start acting out?” He said with a teasing smile before he took another drag of his cig.

GEARHEAD Matt

Matt Brown

18 • Male • Heterosexual

(FC: Ansel Elgort; Dialogue: F7941D)
♫ It's by the sea and at nights end that's when the sin and swill begin
That's when he had that certain light inside his head
For every whisper he would scream for every draught he shared a drink ♫

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

► reputation

Matt is often described as your stereotypical jock for better or worse. Like all jocks he plays football. In fact he’s pretty good at slipping through the defenses and run like hell. But don’t be mistaken. On the field he might not tackle anyone but he’s known to get in a fight from time to time. Though they’re never so bad that he can’t walk the next day. Besides, he’s of the opinion that a big bruise suits him. Fighting isn’t the only thing he does though. Rumor has it that he got a go with every single cheerleader in the squad. It’s no secret that he goes around. You’d think that with all that on his plate he wouldn’t have time for anything else. That’s where you’re wrong. You see Matt has a nasty habit to tease almost everyone. Sadly if people react in a sensitive way to his teasing they become a target for things more teasing. Until it spills out into outright bullying. Matt doesn’t really know the difference nor does he car. He’s smart enough to stay off teachers their radar though. So he has never been caught. His private life is as busy as his school life. On Fridays and Saturdays you can find Matt at street racer parties. No doubt that’s where he gets his stuff from to deal. If he isn’t at some party he’ll be at his own little chop shop. It’s a small thing, sure. But any fledgling street racer in LA will have visited him at least once.

His friends aren’t entirely excluded from the teasing but he’s far from heartless towards them. Most of the time he just wants to have a fun time. Still when things get serious Matt rises up to the challenging. In a fight he’ll have your back. When there’s trouble Matt will help you. No matter what issues you’re dealing with. He might not always be the most soft spoken person but he means well.

► Noteworthy appearance traits

Matt is not Matt without his leather jacket or his earbuds. Other than that he looks quite average.

► Ride

BMW 8 Series Cabriolet.

► Current dilemma

Matt got accepted in both MIT and Hardvard Business school. At MIT he’d be able to pick up Mechanical Engineering. So in the future he could help design and manufacture high end cars. While his father would want him to step into the financial business like him. The problem is that in his head both paths have the same amount of pros and cons. His parents have been pushing him to make a decision. In fact he promised he’d make one during the summer but as June approached the doubt only grew. So when the Gearhead road trip was announced he jumped onboard immediately. Though he did promise his parents he’d make up his mind on the trip.

► warning

In March of 2020 something terrible happened to a girl named Naomi at one of the famous BHHS parties. Details remain rather vague on what exactly happened as police investigation is still underway. He avoids that subject in every way possible.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

► quirks

• Matt often smokes, to see how anxious he is just see how fast he smokes. The faster he burns them the more stressed he is.
• Often mumbles lyrics of songs even if there’s no music
• He dodges cameras as a game

► hobbies

• Tweaking Cars
• Reading (Even his friends are sometimes surprised that he reads in his free time)
• Fighting (Mostly boxing and some MMA though he doesn’t do it competitively)
• Dealing
• Teasing people

► dreams

Mat wants to make something of himself. He wants to be known for something but he doesn’t exactly know what yet.

► fears

There are obvious fears for him. Failure and accidents. He brushed close to both in the past. While he these fears are quite superficial does not mean that he thinks they are in any way cheaper.

_{But deep down he fears jail now more than ever.}

► occupation

Officially Unemployed

► family

• Lana Farweight - His mother. The Farweight family are no strangers to high society. Though they are mostly known in New York. Lana decided to move to LA where she was quickly picked up as a model for several high-end fashion brands that wanted to associate themselves with NYC socialites. These days she works for several non-profit organizations.
• Paul Brown - His father. Coastal cities like LA are filled with reach families. Though the art of finance is generally perceived as a dull one. So they hire people like Paul to manage their money. Paul's office handles the monetary needs of the west coast.

► brief history

When Lana and Paul married and had Matthias there was absolutely no indication that he’d be a gearhead. He grew up to be the child they’d expect him to be. Fairly popular but still does well in school. Everything looked like he would follow in his father’s footsteps. Until that one faithful summer where he stayed at his uncle for two weeks. When he came back he was a changed kid. Matt became far more free-spirited. A year later he snuck out to go to a party, a street racer one. He was sold the moment he arrived and heard the choir of engines.

After that, he had found his passion. He got his license as soon as possible and his father saw himself somewhat obligated to give Matt his own first car. For a year he joined several street racers though he quickly realized he was more interested in the engines under the hood than the races themselves. Through research and a lot of trail and error he refined his own skills. Of course, at the parties he picked up more than his love for engines.
