Personality
Brandon is a very sweet, easy going boy. He's very friendly and doesn't really get things like racism or sexism. He sees people as all very equal and likes to be friends with anyone who is willing to chat. He's a good listener and likes to be there for people. He is pretty popular and very well liked among the women. But, the problem is, he has finally accepted the truth: he's not interested in women. This can cause him to feel very insecure, considering he was the star quarterback. He can be very quiet or insecure when he thinks that people are judging him or assuming things. His sexual orientation is an elephant int he room with his parents, which can cause him to feel judged and unaccepted at home and can cause him to fall into depressions.
History
- Brandon grew up with a distant father and mother, both who worked in very well-paying jobs.
- He has a sister, Elle, is two years younger than him. They don't get along because she doesn't care about being herself, she only wants to be popular.
- Early on, Brandon showed highly artistic talent. This created a riff between him and his father, who always wanted him to become a star athlete.
- Brandon's father has always tried to buy his children's love by buying them expensive things.
- His parents have a very stressed marriage, since they are both so wrapped up in their work. But, working is their way focusing on something other than reality.
- Brandon has attended McKinley for all his school career.
- Brandon is a gifted painter.
- Brandon joined the Titans in an attempt to please his father, who barely seemed to notice.
- Though he does not enjoy sports, he is not half bad at them
- He has had homosexual feelings for a very young age, although he never was able to talk about them. He is just now able to slowly admit them.
- His whole family knows, though they refuse to talk about it.
Friends:
Brandon is very, very friendly. He loves people, he's a good listener and he just loves to be around people and help them with whatever he can. So, he's got lots of friends. That might change once he's finally outed, since there are plenty of homophobes out there. He fears that people will stop liking him. But, i think he'd still have plenty of people around him after the dust settles.
Enemies:
Brandon doesn't have many of these. He doesn't consider many people enemies. Although, I bet that he'll get plenty of crap when he's finally outed, especially by the jocks that he used to hang with. So, enemies are welcome.
Lovers:
Brandon desperately needs one of these. It would be a big plot thing for him, considering it would add lots of pressure for him and conflict and crap. So, a boyfriend would be most most welcome. :]
