He has huge dimples. Like Mario Lopez dimples.
Very thin from skipping meals and vomiting up what he actually ate. His trauma affected his eating and sleeping habits, leaving him unhealthily wiry and skeleton-looking.

He fears everyone and everything. He doesn't let anyone get too close and he's super paranoid. He thinks everyone is looking at him and after him.
He is closed off and reserved. He often bites his fingernails until they bleed and scratches his skin raw. He bounces his leg no matter the situation, and he trembles when scared.
Learning to handle himself when alone and overcoming his fears of sex. He wants to feel clean again, as his attack makes him feel dirty and disgusting. He wants to find joy again. What gives him hope is seeing other patients discharge and hearing about their lives post-hospitalization
All people are monsters. Everyone is evil, no matter how nice they seem.
Can balance a spoon on his nose, knows how to soothe children
He loved reading Harry Potter in middle school and watches Adventure Time whenever he can. They make him feel like a kid again

He was born in Novosibirsk, Russia. His parents gave him up for adoption directly after birth, and he was adopted when he was six. The family then moved to America. He was a pretty happy kid, third child out of four. He loves his siblings and his parents dearly. When he was sixteen years old he was walking home from SAT tutoring when a man came up from behind him, dragged him into an alley and attacked him. He barely remembers the experience--it's all screaming, crying, fighting, and begging. He remembers lying on the concrete alone, feeling sick and repulsive. He called 911 as soon as possible. The attack left him with extensive trauma, causing him to stop eating and sleeping. He wouldn't talk to anyone except for a stuffed fox (Zorro) his father gave him.

I think what frustrates him is that teenaged boys are supposed to be sex-crazed hormonal beasts. He's terrified of touching anyone or anyone touching him. He's frustrated because he just wants to be normal.
On a good day he is still introverted, although he's more social and open. On a bad day he refuses to speak or eat and he'd rather get in trouble with the nurses and staff than deal with his issue.
He is a soft bisexual :)
