shamelessly the hot priest in nora’s fleabag plot with jo vargas! (come for the drama and humor, stay for the pain.) but instead of being an ordained minister, he’s a professor! (i’m thinking liberal arts because that’s what happens when you’re a former literature major like myself.)
he’s the older brother to ellis’s lloyd (the ever-lovely dan stevens), and basically these two adult men are just two halves of an idiot sandwich (in their own Fun ways). we’re still working out their ~history whilst growing up in dyrne, but these two are locals so there is plenty of room to have known them growing up!
buck is a recovering alcoholic and now he’s using his prior experiences with addiction to help others around him who are suffering. i can imagine his support group being a very almost chill affair? like’s he’s always there on thursday nights at the local diner in the back with his little cup of black coffee and an encouraging smile for those willing to share their experiences.
before he hit Rock Bottom (about maybe 5ish?? years ago), though, buck was (un)happily married and i would actually like to put out feelers to see if anyone would be interested in playing his ex-wife! (i don’t have a lot of specifications but i can definitely see his alcoholism playing a big factor in their separation/divorce.)
i think i’ve run out of gas in this clown car of Ideas but this is all very much still a work in progress! but if any of the above sparks your interest (or if you just want to chat about other spooky things) please hit me up at spooky spice#3773 on discord!
