—BIOGRAPHY (tws: drug use, addiction, car accident, death)
Liam Gabriel Wagner didn’t ask to be born into a family with more dysfunction than love. He never asked to be a child that was unwanted or to be given a family name that would mean nothing to him by the time he was eight. Liam had wished his whole life that someone would love him and want him so when that day came that a mother and father looked at him and asked him if he wanted to be part of their family, it was almost hard to believe. His parents had surrendered him to child protective services when he was five and it took three years of waiting before he was finally placed in a foster home with parents who were looking to adopt. When Liam was ten he was finally adopted by John and Melissa Wagner and for the first time in his life felt like someone wanted him.
He had moved to Seattle when he was eight after being placed with a foster family there and at the time he was a sweet kid who was working through his traumatic childhood in therapy and starting to assimilate into the new town he was calling home. He made friends easily and found that he had a talent for drawing that later turned into a passion. Everything was fine with the Wagners until December of 2010 when the family was caught in a winter storm that would take away the only family Liam had.
The car accident claimed the lives of both of his parents and at the age of sixteen, Liam was once again, alone. He had been lucky enough, or unlucky if you asked him, to survive that black ice on a backroad but his life was once again torn into pieces. He had an older adoptive sibling who took custody of him and let him live with them until he turned eighteen but Liam was done trying to have a family. It was clearly not in the cards for him and he didn’t want to burden anyone else with his desire to be loved. So instead he started finding comfort in things that could fill the void in his life without involving anyone else.
At first it was just alcohol, easy enough to obtain and didn’t draw any attention to him. But eventually the alcohol turned to experimenting with drugs and that turned into a habitual use and before Liam knew it, he was drowning in his addiction. The drugs almost claimed his own life several times, a few because of overdosing and a few more because of the things he was willing to do to get his hands on drugs. Liam had lived on the street for a while after his older sibling kicked him out for his behavior, and during that time he’d let men of all kinds mistreat him for somewhere to sleep or another fix.
There was only ever really one person that knew Liam for who he was and didn’t judge or try to fix him and that was Ale. From the first time they met he knew that Ale understood him. The only person he’d ever shared his deepest and darkest parts with and the only one he wanted to share it with. Liam had relationships here and there but rarely anything serious because his own abandonment issues made it impossible to commit to anyone else. But Ale was different because he understood the weight of his losses. When his life was falling apart, it was Ale’s door step that Liam would show up on, out of his mind and needing a place to crash.
He’s been to rehab a few times and regularly attends NA meetings but Liam’s sobriety is always in question. Without any real ambitions or idea about how to make something worthwhile out of his life, Liam’s held down a few different jobs over the years but never for very long. He makes most of his money by selling his artwork online, and sometimes a little more than artwork if anyone were to do a thorough search through the internet and stumble upon his Only Fans account. But recently he’s been thinking about his future and wondering when he’ll ever get his act together enough to get a real job.

(-) forgetful, distant, secretive
—EXTRAS
Older Sibling: This is the person who took Liam in when his adoptive parents passed away. At the time they might have been close but Liam fell into a dark head space after they passed and he started drinking and doing drugs and burned that bridge.
Just for Tonight: A hookup that Liam sees semi-regularly. He doesn’t do well in relationships so he just uses his body to get his needs met and then leaves it at that. He’s openly bisexual so any gender is fine with him!
Almost the One: Someone who dated Liam in his early twenties. They probably could have worked out and been amazing together if he could have kept his act together but his inability to commit and stay sober ended up being the death of them.
