1) What would completely break your character?

Losing his family again. When he lost his kids the first time, he barely survived. If it were to happen again, he’d completely lose his shit.

2) What's the best thing that has happened in your character’s life?

There are a couple of standout moments. The birth of his children are one. Meeting Johnny is another one. Getting custody of Bella is a third.

3) What's the worst thing that has happened in your character’s life?

Definitely Georgie’s murder, and his subsequent prison stay.

4) What seemingly insignificant memories stick with your character?

There’s a couple of moments that always standout to Gabe. Laying up on the roof of his childhood home with Georgie, just staring up at the night sky. Sitting in the visitation area during a prison holiday visit with Johnny, drinking tea out of shitty styrofoam cups.

5) What is your character reluctant to tell people?

There’s a couple of things, but probably the main thing is about his prison time. Even though he was eventually acquitted and his conviction was overturned, he sees the way people judge him when he tells them.

6) How does your character feel about sex?

He was conflicted when he was younger. He grew up in a household where gay sex was considered a sin. It took him a long time to accept that wanting a sex life with a man was fine. These days he’s very comfortable with his sexual orientation, and he’s very gropey as far as his husband is concerned.

7) What would your character make a scene about in public?

There’s a couple of things he’d make a scene about. Anything to do with his kids - especially regarding Bella’s well-being. Anytime he sees someone being discriminated against in a shop, he can’t help but to step in. If only because of his past.

8) What would your character give their life for?

His family – hands down.

9) What are your character’s major flaws?

He’s really bad about talking, and saying his feelings out loud. It’s gotten him in trouble on multiple occasions.

10) What does your character pretend to care about?

Soccer. Whenever his son talks about the intramural soccer league he’s in, Gabe pretends like he cares, but he honestly doesn’t understand soccer at all.

11) What is your character afraid of?

He’s not afraid of it per say, but he’s definitely no longer a fan of small spaces.

12) What is something most people do that your character thinks is dumb?

How terrible does it make him if he says go to church? He spent a good majority of his life in churches, and he honestly doesn’t understand it.

13) Where would your character fall on a politeness/rudeness scale?

He’s probably somewhere in the middle. Sometimes his swearing makes him appear ruder than he really is.

14) Is your character the type to re-read a book? If they are, what book have they re-read?

Yes, actually. He re-reads Catch-22 every year.

15) Does your character believe in an afterlife? Why or why not?

Hell, yes he does. If only because it gives him hope that he’ll get to see his sister again one day.

16) What is something your character feels strongly about?

There’s a lot of things, but one of the things he can go on and on about? Tara was an underrated character who should have never been killed off Buffy.

17) What is something your character wishes they could say to an ex?

Oh, there are so many fucking things he wants to say to Nancy, but the number one thing he wishes he could tell her? You’re under arrest.

18) What is one dream your character has had, even if it made no sense?

He once dreamt that he was Kale, which was probably one of the most bizarre dreams he’s ever had.

19) What is the stupidest thing your character has ever done just because someone said they couldn’t?

When they were teenagers, Derrick dared him to climb to the roof of their high school, which he did – only to get himself fucking stuck on the fucking roof when the door locked behind him. Derrick has to help him figure out how the fuck to get him down without getting detention for being up on the roof.

20) Does your character indulge in anything? If they do, what is it? If they don’t, why?
