#coldbrook:start

so aaden is twenty three years old and has lived in coldbrook all his life w his twin sister amalia ( he’s the older twin by half an hour jsyk and he will ALWAYS remind everyone of that ) !! 

they weren’t really that close as kids just because ?? sibling rivalries and a lack of stuff to bond over but he would fr die for her now. 

like don’t even think about badmouthing her in front of him ??? talk shit get hit. ( except not like legit hit probably just given a stern look and a frown bc violence isn’t really his style tbqh. )

he takes after his parents a lot !!! not only is he a writer like his parents but he’s super ambitious and super clear on those ambitions and what he believes. like fr don’t even try to sway him because ?? you will lose. you will lose hard. 

has lived a pretty sheltered life in that he’s never actually had the thought to leave coldbrook ?? like he has some unfinished business in proving the existence of things that go bump in the night and generally following in his family’s footsteps as a writer to make them proud ??? he works at the local newspaper and it’s his actual lifeblood. he gives his heart and soul to his job.

amalia and aaden’s childhood was kind of rocky because although they had parents who loved them, they also had parents who had no idea how to be parents. basically got married too young and had these super demanding jobs and suddenly there were these two demanding little babies in their laps. so they were left to their own devices a lot.

aaden is the most optimistic person you will ever meet. like he’s a genuinely good soul and he has taken everything bad or negative that has happened in his life and used it to make himself better. he’s an instrument of positivity basically.

very inquisitive ?? will always go around asking questions ?? literally has a notebook on him at all times ??

also the better twin. just saying.
