{ nat wolff, male, he/him } - hey look it’s { riley clarington-smythe }!! i heard they are { 18 } and in { senior year } at { McKinley }!! someone also told me that they are {+adventurous, +creative } and { -reckless, -distant } but it could be just a rumor!
Riley was adopted into the Clarington-smythe family when he was around 7. His biological parents were unfit to care for him and his siblings, it wasn’t a house any child should grow up in. He was the oldest of his siblings, so he usually took the brunt of his father’s temper in order to protect his younger siblings. His mother wasn’t really physical toward any of them, just more so incredibly neglectful.
He was split up from his siblings not long after they were taken from their home, most people were more eager to adopt the younger ones than they were him. He lived in a group home until he was adopted by Sebastian and Hunter.
He didn’t really speak at all when he first moved in, was very detached and distant. He had a hard time warming up to them, especially as he didn’t really trust father figures. He gradually warmed to them as he stayed longer, realising they had nothing but love in their hearts for him. There’s still a tiniest part of him that doubts their love but he knows that’s just based off of his past, and nothing to do with them.
That’s just a little about his back story tbh I imagine I’ll write more in a proper bio but this is just for intro stuff
Okay so he will never talk about his childhood before Sebastian and hunter. He doesn’t talk about his siblings, his biological parents, not anything. The only people he has talked to have been his dads.
He’s a bit distant sometimes, but he tries to be present and tries to open himself up to people. Though he’s worked through a lot of his stuff through therapy, he’s still a bit of a runner. Runs from emotions and relationships.
He’s a nice kid, a little bit of a reckless one. He likes to party, stays out late, doesn’t come home until the early hours of the morning. He sneaks out a lot. Sometimes he just likes to wander on his own, listening to music and enjoying the night.
He looks like the unapproachable type who would fight anyone, but he would literally never lay a hand on anyone. He doesn’t do violence, even if someone is really getting under his skin.
He’s a musician. He writes music and plays guitar. He’d have to really be down with you to show any of his songs tho.
Boy literally skateboard everywhere he goes. He has a car, he just barely uses it because he likes to just disappear on his skateboard for long afternoons. He has broken more decks than he can count.
Collects old consoles like it’s nobody’s business. He doesn’t really care about playing any new games, he’ll just rock with Super Mario 64. Also 100% digs old arcade games. If your his friend, he has definitely dragged you to an arcade so he can go on the Pac-Man machine, asteroids or space invaders.
He is honestly very soft tbh.
Wanted connections
Best friends- just pals he can hang with and spend early Sunday mornings just exploring stuff with. Ones he’s super close with and trusts with his soul.
Past hookups- fleeting moments of romance. People at parties or just stupid makeouts under the bleachers. Could be one night things, or friends with benefits. Anything goes really.
An ex or two- just people he dated but couldn’t handle the commitment. So probably broke up with them very abruptly and without a lot of explanation, even if he did like them a lot.
