A vintage like journal sits among shells and rocks that are scattered upon a desk towards the dorm's window. It smells salty and has a bit of sand here and there. The pages contain doodles, feathers and quick blurbs about daily travels.

Alex
Name: Alex (Last name prior to "abandonment": Antsu-Linderhill) Nickname: Al, Lex, Lexy (Valeria will call him Alexander 95% of the time) Sex: Male Age: 7 Stage: Child Item:Glittery Star Christmas Tree Topper Height: 3'8" Eyes: Right is dark brown, left is gold. Hair: Golden brown with dark brown bangs. Skin: Pale tan with faint orange, yellow and red swirls Style: Plain, long sleeved, yellow, gold, brown, blue, teal, comfortable.
Commonly known facts: Alex is a afraid of the dark, hates being left alone, and is always looking for his older sister, Valeria. He likes hot cocoa with whipped cream and marshmallows. He likes to cuddle and is unbelievably sweet and intoxicatingly adorable. His giggle is just as squee worthy as a video of kittens cuddling in a basket while mewing and pawing at the camera.
Hidden facts: Alex LOVES boats, especially sail boats and big ships. One of his favorite things to wear is a white and blue sailor uniform he got for Halloween. He likes to wear his pajamas EVERYWHERE. If he likes you, you will have all the cuddles, no questions asked.
Overall Personality
Alex is the intoxicatingly adorable little brother that wants nothing more than to cuddle you and share hot cocoa. He's naive and sees the world as a big treasure chest that hasn't been tampered with enough. He can be very very shy and prefer to hide behind objects than participate in group discussions, but underneath his shyness is a desire to be a part of the world he sees. A curious little mind hovers within him but he isn't the type to jump around and draw attention to his questions.
He's very clingy, especially to Valeria, and will whine and cry if he has to be pried away from her or his comfort zone. Alex's ability to keep his anxiety in check is practically nonexistent if he's on his own. If he's terrified enough, he'll bolt away without a second thought about where he is going. He doesn't appreciate being frightened for a joke and will resent you for it.
The Good
Sweet/Kind - Alex is as sweet as sugar and as cute as Puss In Boots. He learned how to be kind from his sister Valeria and he considers himself an expert learner. He'll snuggle you and love you until you're fed up with him.
Patient/Agreeable - Alex can wait his turn until the sun goes down. He also follows directions and rules like a pro. He doesn't like rule breakers...
Diligent - Alex is a hardworking little angel. Once he starts something, he finishes it!
Helpful - Alex likes to help others. Are you lost in the hallways? Can't find your jacket? Did you forget to bring a sandwich for lunch? Alex would be glad to assist you with any problem you have! ...Except during power outages or trips into the basement.
Even tempered - Alex isn't quick to anger or pout. If provoked, he'll withdraw, not fight back.
The Bad
Shy - Alex is very very shy. He hates large crowds and having more than two people talking to him at once. He gets flustered and may run and hide.
Easily frightened/Irrational fears - Many simple things scare the s**t out of Alex. The lights flickering, a dog barking, your cell phone ringing, are all things that can blatantly terrify him. He also has irrational fears of being kidnapped by aliens, lured to his death by setting foot in the basement, and being shocked by lighting while in the bathtub. He's constantly worrying about something!
Clingy - This little fellow will cling to you for dear life if he is afraid of something. Doctor's visits are hell. He'll also cling to you if he likes you, even if you don't want cuddles.
Naive/Innocent - He's a green as a bag of green beans and lettuce. He hasn't heard of curse words, dirty jokes, or even tackled the question "Where do babies come from?" Hell, if you were to utter a curse word, he'd probably assume it was a new vocabulary word!
Easily hurt emotionally - If he feels shunned or not wanted, he'll tear up and mope around like a sad puppy. When his heart gets broken or his dreams get thrown in the gutter, expect a bucket of tears and few Spongebob reruns.
Pastimes
Drawing - Alex is a budding artist! He likes to draw boats, the ocean and fish.
Music/Singing - Alex learned how to sing from his daddy, Allen. He likes singing Christmas carols, listening to folk music, and wants to play to acoustic guitar when he's older.
Toy boats/Sailor suits - Toy boats are Alex's obsession! He loves to build them, sail them and paint them! He also loves wearing sailor themed outfits like Popeye the Sailor Man and the men in other cartoons.
Astrological Signs
Virgo
Element: Earth
Ruling planets: Mercury
Symbol: The Virgin
Stone: Sapphire
Life Pursuit: To do the right thing
Vibration: Compassionate and caring
Virgo's Secret Desire: To love and be loved in return
Description: Virgos are often put down badly by many astrologers and written up as being fussy and narrow-minded. But when a Virgo shines, there is practically no sign to match their inner light. An in-tune Virgo is a treat to meet. When a Virgo is confident within themselves they are the most successful, structured and creative of all the signs.
Many Virgos can be found working in the "service to others" industries, ranging from welfare work, doctors, school-teachers through to practising natural forms of healing like massage, herbal remedies etc. One of the most magical characteristics of the Virgo is no matter how many times life or romance turns sour on them, they still manage to maintain faith in others, refusing to become cynical. There is ingenuity around this sign, a kind-heartedness, which unfortunately is sometimes played upon by others for their advantage. Virgos can often become victims of relationship power-games, where they are mistreated.
Creative and sensitive, Virgos are delicate people who, like rare and special orchids, require individual treatment to fully blossom into their true unique beauty. Shy, they are happy to allow others to take centre-stage and often generate their time and energy into making those they love happy or successful.
Virgos are givers and when the chips are down and you need a friend, the one available during those testing times when you need advice or companionship the most, is likely to be a Virgo. Virgos understand human frailties better than most, because they are so deep and reflective themselves. With a Virgo in your life you have someone who understands and cares and any romance or friendship based upon these qualities is certain to be mutually rewarding.
Valeria: My big sister! I've been looking everywhere for her... Maybe I should check the girls side of the dormitories...

Journal Entry: 1
'Ello, journal. I'm Alex. Writing is not easy. I sound kind of silly. Maybe lessons help me? Valeria will teach me. Yeah. When she stops watching scary movies...
Erm. Hi...? Yes. I'm not good at saying hello to books. Silly! Silly! I'm silly! What to write? What to write? Valeria and I were re-u-night-ed 'cause of a party! I don't like parties, but my sister makes everything muuuuch better! Mr. Morpheus was weeiiird. He says I am his nephew and he laughs really deep. Maybe he has cough?
Heee! Valeria knocked over her pencils and said a bad woooord! Daddy would be unhappy! No, no. Say good words big sister! Like "Good dog" or "In the name of the moon!" Sailor moon is a good hero! Valeria should be like Sailor Moon! I could be Chibi Moon! I need long hair, pigtails and a skirt, though. Where can I get those? I bet I look pretty in that!
Going to find food now. Valeria is training for a big war that is outside our door. I AM SCAAAAAAAARRREEED! Come back safe! YOU IS STRONG! EAT LOTS OF MEAT, VEGGIES AND MILK! BIG AND STRONG! VALERIA IS BIG AND STRONG!
... She walked into a pole! Silly Valeria, there's no time for that!

Journal Entry: 2
Made friends today! Don't know what to think of that. They think I'm funny. I'm funny? Is that good? Um. Yes. Valeria nods. That is a good thing! She is never wrong, so it must be true! We're eating pizza and talking 'bout scary video games. I stay close to Valeria 'cause the game monsters could eat me up... I don't want to be game monster food...
Marisol is looooud. I don't know what to do about her. She smells pretty, though. Like a bakery! Her wings are pretty and remind me of butterflies! She has "sisters" named Lydia and Olivia, who have different wings. They are pretty, too! I like Lydia better, though. She talks nicer and helps me get stuff down from high places. Olivia makes jokes that I don't understand. Maybe when I'm older I will? Then there is Asher! He is an Arch-Angel, a little different than a reg-lar angel like Valeria and me. He likes to spend time with Valeria and me, says he feels comfortable 'round angels more than other people. He treats me nice and gives me sweets! I think he's pretty... Is that a good thing?
