sowing season

faye walked through the grass, annoyed. she’d been slapping away bugs the entire time she’d been here. though she used to come every summer, it had been way too long– she couldn’t remember anything. she was searching for her cabin, scratching spots on her arms. “jesus,” she said to the person walking next to her. “i didn’t come here to be eaten alive by mosquitoes.”

unintentionally, tony had just been walking for the sake of walking ( okay, walking to find a nice spot to crack open his flask in and enjoy a time alone, aka keep his consistent buzz going ) and noticed that someone else seemed to be equally lost or searching for a place. “really?” he responded without skipping a beat, tone relatively deadpan and almost sarcastic. “you came to the woods and didn’t expect to get eaten alive.” of course, the male was used to this considering where he came from and the places he’d chosen to squat in once he reached the US - still, she should’ve known that in the woods, during summer, near water, mosquitos thrived. “we’re literally right near a lake and it’s summer.”

“ i don’t know if i can explain this. “

“ i’m from ecuador so i suppose it depends on what you consider gross … obviously i probably ate dirt and worms as a kid before my mom hit me over the head to teach me not to, but we eat guinea pigs and other bugs that aren’t common here .. “

“ i don’t have anything i’m particularly wishing for right now, “ he admitted, looking down as his thumbs fiddled together in his lap. tony had a lot he could wish for - his mom to come back, his brother to speak to him, to go back to where he spent majority of his childhood and felt safe .. but it was hard to go back to another country when you weren’t exactly legal to come back whenever you felt like it. although, he had nothing to come back for at this point. he’d settled in a small town in virginia but recently realised what type of people they were and knew he couldn’t stay any longer .. but he remembered this camp from a time he stayed in the US before. in all honesty, he almost wished for that time period again. “ to be young and stupid again, “ he chuckled out. “ being an adult is shit. “

licking his lips for a moment, tony thought over just how to word his truth - because it was the truth, but it was something most wouldn’t admit and something many do not want to hear. his mind flashed back to when his family finally settled back in his home country, back to that very unfortunate incident - the few incidents that happened back then, actually, and he had to pick just one he could handle admitting as if it was the final and worst incident.

“ well, when i was fifteen i got into a fight - i don’t remember it, but the other kid didn’t make it out .. untouched, to say the least. “ raking his fingers through his hair, he shrugged and let out an uncomfortable chuckle although what his was implying could be terrifying when paired with a laugh. “ i broke his eye socket and, from what i was told, he was deaf in his right ear. i don’t know if i believe that, though. that’s probably the worst thing. “

☠ ◞ ricardo hoyos . twenty-three. cismale . he/him . › is that antonio nicolas-vasquez i see walking through the campgrounds ? i can’t believe that the scorpio is spending their summer here . i heard that TONY is an automotive mechanic when they’re at home in culpeper, virginia. but while they’re here , i’ve seen them secretly drinking and drumming along to music while humming can’t be saved by senses fail. i’ve called them the anti-hero but that’s only because of their PERSPICACIOUS and IRASCIBLE tendencies . apparently , they’re back at camp silver lake this year because he panicked about tensions in virginia, so he dropped everything with no plans  .

character  name  .  age  .  birthday  .  sexuality  .  * antonio nicolas-vasquez, but preferablyjust  tony. 23 years old as of nov 11. heterosexual.

why  are  they  labeled  as  the  trope  that  you  applied  for  ?  * i’ve been playing tony for more years than i can count in many wildly different capacities (IE stages of his life), however his personality has always been relatively the same: you will probably hate him but he’s always ready to swoop in and defend the little dude. esp physically. kids a fighter, shrug. also, chaotic good is him to a T and seems to heavily correlate with anti-hero.

who  are  some  of  their  character  inspirations  ?  (  bonus  points  if  you  list  some  horror  movie  or  television  show  characters  )  * cracks knucles. we’ve got han solo (star wars), john bender (the breakfast club), dally winston (the outsiders), hellboy (kinda), gregory house (house), patrick bateman (american psycho), should i keep going? i literally hate him.

do  you  think  they’d  run  into  danger  or  run  away  from  it  ?  * tonys the type of dude to run to the danger and put his life on the line while making jokes about finally getting his dream of dying.

what  are  the  worst  parts  of  their  personality  ?  * extremely antisocial in a very intentionally self-destructive, self-torture way. he’ll talk to you and joke, if you approach him, but he doesn’t do “friends” or “feelings” or anything “complicated” like that. hence, him only having one girlfriend when he was like 14, lol. edgelord.

what  are  some  connections  that  they  would  have  formed  at  camp  the  first  time  they  were  around  ? * he may have made one “friend” (someone he is relatively decent towards) and mostly everyone else probably hates him in some form.

are  they  nervous  about  returning  back  to  camp  silver  lake  ?  why  or  why  not  ? * nah, returning here is going to be his escape because this time it’s unplanned. he didn’t come back for the funsies but came back bc of political tensions back in his very small town that he knew could be dangerous in some way for him, so he went to something he knew.

what’s  their  favorite  scary  movie  ? * a nightmare on elm street !!
