The Puppy
Name: Cristopher Finnegan
Nickname: Chris, or Crash, or Crashie, or Puppy.
You don't want to know.Age: 17
Birthday: December 24.
Hell hath no fury like a Chris scorned by this.Sign: Capricorn. Baa.
Gemstone: Garnet
Blood Type: A+.
Fav. Food: Popcorn is Chris' favorite exploding food. He also likes spicy stuff, but in reality he's not super choosy.
Hated Food: Chris is a human garbage disposal. This does not exist.School: Hillworth. His parents hoped a strict school for troubled boys would help Crash's more... destructive traits. It didn't.
Hobbies: Pyrotechnics - Chris loves exploding things, so the fact explosions are basically controlled fire are all kinds of neat to him. Getting into fire safety after... Accidentally.. Igniting hairspray in middle school (which stamped his pass to Hillworth), he quickly learned all sorts of NIFTY THINGS about fire and it's a good way to entertain him. He loves Mythbusters, and Fireworks, and generally, if it's some form of pyrotechnics, he's going to want to see it. Pyrotechnics are neat and safe after all. That's his philosophy!
Cooking - Most people don't realize it, but Chris loved helping his parents in the kitchen as a boy and now knows how to make treats for them and his younger brother. There's nothing quite like making someone a delicious meal, really, and cooking is something to help him settle enough to focus, aside exploding things or music and dancing, anyway, unless EATING said food counts - he's a human garbage disposal after all.
Music and Dancing - Chris is not trained in the musical arts - in fact, he sings and five songbirds in Peru die unexpectedly, but he loves listening to music, and dancing to it like a derp. There's no rhyme or reason, except that he simply loves to listem to good music and start moving to it, from pop and rock to gothic industrial. He cares not, if he's enjoying it and can dance, he's good! Even if his voice could make glass shatter and his idea of dancing is shaking his body around to the music instead of something more coordinated. Except maybe mosh pits. He's good in Mosh Pits.
Virtues: UpbeatHappy happy joy joy happy happy joy joy!Chris is probably the happiest dude you can meat. He can look bad situations in the eye and turn a broad, charismatic grin on them and remain upbeat until the bitter end, or his people hurt. Chris sees a positive in literally everything, and he'll smile and happily point it out, even if you don't agree. THAT IS PERFECTLY OKAY FRIEND. He's just delighted to see it, and while he can be rattled, it's not common, making him pleasant to be around.
FriendlyHello I just met you and I love you!Chris is one of those guys whom enters a situation with the biggest smile and a firm belief everybody is his best friend.
Everybody - at least without reason to think otherwise. He's the kind of guy who happily greets everyone if he can, and chatters to them, and asks about them. He's super interested in you and wants to be your friend, and this is actually something a lot of people fell is a good thing - after all, he
remembers what you tell him, and what he hears may surprise people, and he tries to be as kind and open to others as possible.
AffectionateDream a dream, and what you see will be! Chris LOVES YOU. ALL OF YOU. Very often Chris, once he has a person, will cling and love and dote, from thoughtful gifts to a smile and a hug, to simply draping or hugging on someone. He's not pushy about it, either - just a lovey fellow who, for the world of him, wants you to know he cares, and that he's there for you, in big or smasll ways, always.
EnthusiasticYou gotta dig a little deeper!Chris gets excited about things easily. There's no reason except things just make him eager to do or see them by being there. NEW MOVIE? HE'S DOWN FOR IT! Sports? YES PLEASE! A new style of food? HE WILL JOIN YOU. He'll be excited about things for you and encourage excitement in others happily, often smiling and bubbly the entire time.
Flaws: ViciousProgrammed to fight to the very end!Everybody had limits, and Chris is no exception. Cross his line, and if you're not his people,
the correct response is to run away very fast. When Crash is provoked, he goes from a giant ball of love to a hostile, vicious fellow and he will try to fight the offender off - not really in his own defense as often as others, but he does it, and when he does, it;s not a pretty sight.
Puppy-likeSQUIRREL!Because of how generally fluffy Chris' personality is, a lot of people consider him a human puppy. For some, this is good. For most, he comes across as less intelligent than he actually is, because he clings to people and conceptions and anything with as much as he can. He THRIVES on positive responses and acts like a kicked pup when given negative response, and overall acts... In some ways... Like a big, loving dog, and it is a genuine case of love it or hate it.
Over-EnthusiasticIn your hands the birth of a new day! Chris is enthusiastic and happy to enthuse others!... Sadly, he's also highly wired about it normally. Often times he forgets not to overwhelm people, or to just sit still, or otherwise not put people off by talking too much about this awesome thing guys no really. He's entirely oblivious to this as well, making him a bit difficult to manage when he's super excited, and he's often more excited than need be, or appropriate.
Doesn't usually listenBut thick as you are, PAY ATTENTION! Chris is kind of... Not always listening. He tries and when it's something about a person - likes and dislikes, he listens, but 'no' or 'seriously man don't' don't really seem to bypass the filter. In short, Chris doesn't take direction well. At all. Ever.You genuinely have no idea how much he doesn't listen - that's a reason he
set the hairspray on fire. The moment he really wants to do something or see something, he will WANT IT, HOW HE WANTS IT. LIKE BURNING. And there's no real way to get around it - leading to him kind of glazing out and ignoring your sound advice.
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Eyes: Big. The guy never got past wide eyed stage really, so he has these big expressive green eyes that fade from rich dark emerald green to a sunny lighter grass green.
Hair: Chris' hair is a trainwreck in the nicest sense. The bangs and overall top look like he got up, ran his fingers through and called it good in the morning. In back, he keeps his hair in a ponytail - it's not very big or long, as his hair MAYBE reaches the upper quarters of his shoulderblades. Generally, his hair is best described as an overgrown mop out of the ponytail and a hslf-mop with it. Colourwise, it's bright red, however he bleaches the tips of his bangs pure white abour a quarter inch, so if he does get them in his eyes, it's not making him as mopy. And nobody likes a mopey puppy.
Face: Chris has a round face that is fairly disarming and innocent-ish. His tall, gangly even if muscular, and generally very well built for agility or gymnastics, probably from running from stupid s**t he's gotten into. He has a few freckles, especially on his face, though not too many. At one point, Chris got talked into an ear peircing, though!... That didn't go over very well.
Clothes: Chris is fashionably challenged and wears pretty much whatever is comfortable, even if it doesn't go together. He likes plaids in red or green, but after that if he can wear his jeans with it, he's gonna wear it. And sometimes he wears girl's shirts and blouses or pants just 'cause they look pretty. He's very non-picky beyond 'I think this is shiny', so in reality half the time his clothes clash. He does wear a couple rings on one hand, but mostly he's fairly simple to please lookswise, and will try anything he's told at least once.
