* All things contained in here are IC and, unless you/your character/your avatar were a part of the stories or were told about them, the knowledge is... Well, unknown.

* The Golden Rule is the supreme rule. Play nicely, children, or face the wrath!

* Feel free to gank compiled stories from here that you were a part of. Sharing is caring.

* No begging or other untoward behavior regarding Ignacio or Devon. Please? It makes for a sad ShortGreen.

I didn't take a picture of a cabbage. It's a cabbage. If I want to remember what a cabbage look like or he asks, I'll take him to the grocery store.

Nacho as a baby. Didn't seem in a hurry to talk but maybe that's because he was too busy using his mouth to chew on everything.

"Um... Look, I know I'm not your dad. So just call me... Devon."


User Image
Name: Devon Garcia
Nickname: "... None please and don't listen to Rob when he tells you to call me Giggles."
Age: 23
Birthdate: October 29
Height: 5'10"

Favorite Food: Red beans and rice (Mmm, simple) - it also happens that this is one of the few things he's really good at cooking.
Likes: body art of all types, color, leather and denim, strong black coffee, mechanical pencils, garage-band rock, really stupid jokes (we're talking idiotic knock-knocks here, people), Animal Planet (a lot of people want animal tats and it makes for good reference), old pin-up art, the business section of the newspaper
Dislikes: deadlines, bills, people who judge on appearance, ties, sandals, vegetables that are orange, gummi candies, abstract art
Hobbies: sketching on everything, listening to music, taking long walks, avoiding concepts like 401K and Life Insurance Policy
Weaknesses: far too willing to stay a Big Kid, panics at too much responsibility, gets morose when denied creative outlets... And you can own his soul for a blueberry Blow-Pop

Personality: Coming across as a bit of a lay-about and a creative bum, Devon is actually more intelligent than you would think. He holds an associate's degree in business, after all, and got it with the second highest marks in his graduating class. Unfortunately, all of his logical brilliance is at war with his inherent need to create and his desire for low-stress. Pretty much, it's a right brain-left brain civil war in the guy and, at the moment, it's the creativity that is winning. He has yet to reach the maturity level where it occurs to him that he can do both at the same time.

Quiet and introverted, Devon usually seems to be operating on the setting of Vague. He'll talk to you if you talk to him but he rarely makes the first move in conversation. Yes, he is shy but it's also that he just doesn't think he has much to say that's interesting. His self-esteem isn't terribly low, though. It's simply a matter of him being convinced that he's a bit "weird". He has no temper to speak of aside from an underlying sullen streak that is more a shadow and a state than something he inflicts on others.

All in all, he's a good kid who really needs to grow up some day.

Appearance: With a heritage like his (half Irish, half Puerto Rican), Devon was doomed to some slight visual oddities. He stands about 5'10", lean and slightly gawky with big sensitive hands and a constant slouching curve to his posture. His hair is dark but has a red sheen to it that is completely natural; he wears it short at the sides and back with some vague spikes up top and half-assed sideburns. He adds a little scruffy goatee to the image. His eyes are dark green with flecks of amber and are perpetually hooded. His complexion falls somewhere in between cherrywood and oak, warm and tanned. He has covered various bits of it in ink, put a couple holes in his ears, and slouches around in baggy jeans and t-shirts and sneakers.

History: to come

Kisala

Deva - This is one little girl who definitely has spoken to Iggy's protective side. He is far more gentle with her than anyone else and noticeably tries to reign in his wild enthusiasm for her benefit. She's exceedingly girly but Iggy figures this is okay because she's really pretty.

Harper - Having met at a stage where talking was incoherent and optional, Iggy and Harper get along quite well at the moment. They both think bigger than smaller and have volume control issues. Whereas Iggy's is due to enthusiasm and Harper's is due to his, well, Harper-ism, it doesn't seem to matter.

Riley - If pressed, Iggy would probably say that Riley is his best friend. She shares his adventurous spirit, his dislike of sitting still, and... Well, she is not at all GIRLY which just makes Iggy like her all the more. After an incident in which Riley's arm was broken, Iggy has been rather more careful in their rough-housing but he doesn't seem inclined to baby her... Which is probably a good thing here.

Antony - While some of Antony's mannerisms confuse the life out of Iggy, he still likes the other boy enough to take the time to coax him into playtime. He easily accepts that Antony is the brains and he's the brawn. In fact, he doesn't mind at all. He also thinks that Antony has the coolest dad... Next to Devon, that is.

Why Ignacio?
Once he got his mind around the concept of suddenly being a father, Devon realized the kid needed a name and the first thing that came to mind was Ignacio, the name of his paternal grandfather. He was very close to the old man and was hit hard when he passed way 5 years back.
